Already explained and debunked. Back to your regularly scheduled Xbone trolling and spamming.

The explanation is also fairly worrying, consoles firmware not ready this close to launch, scary.

Scary if you're paranoid, not too technically savy, or looking for an issue I guess. Working on updates up to the last minute is common. Not surprised at all that they are still tweaking something as complex as this.

Yeah i am technically savy and i know if i was still working on major core functionality with less than 2 weeks before launching a product i would be scared, as it stands right now, offline DRM is still there.

Yes devs work up to the last minute, but not on core fixes, normally minor bugs or polish. 

You know exactly what is being worked on and tweaked to say they are "core fixes"?

The patches people download have a limited time and then are gone. This forces people to update again, and ensures everyone is on an up to date firmware version. The problem for the guy is his console is banned from connected, so his update is dead and he cannot reconnect to get a fresh update. For all we know the core functionality is there and intact, there could be any number of things being worked on. And when its closer to launch they roll out a real update free of time constraints and the dude is unbanned, can connect and download, then unplug and play offline like any other console.

Not hard, not a big deal. Unless someone wants to try and make it one I guess.
