At last, smoeone who knows where to find the beef

Just advise people to block xbox live by going to their router homepage usualy default 192.168.1.1 set port blocking for ports 3074 and 88 this prevents the use of xbox live and it means you can still play online but you will have to use alternative methods for live play eg.xlink kai this is a software which allows online play via the system link option in the game.This may satisfy some people temporarily until the fix is complete just don't unblock the ports until the fix is here and applied you should be fine to go back online by unblocking the ports once you apply the fix they are working on.The router homepage address may vary depending on your router's initial setup so google it if it seems complex.This is a method used for playing banned 360's and none banned 360's online without xbox live subscription although the number of online players are limited.You would also need to allow port forwarding for xlink kai else you may find it is unable to connect so just google it.
