Are dedicated servers really necessary for forge?

Games Halo 5: Guardians

Bandwidth usage said I used 265 MB in one hour, I know for absolute certainty I was only doing forge on my own, just messing around with vehicles and trying to figure out the controls.

An hour of Rise of the Tomb Raider uses 10 MB or less.

I foresee this becoming a hassle with monthly caps seeing as in the past I have spent many many hours in forge (also while offline too).

Are dedicated servers an absolute must to play forge? Surely the Xbox One can handle it offline/without the servers because there really isnt a need for servers if I’m playing on my own

are you sure that wasn’t from the download?

Instead for Forge they should give these servers to European players.

Positive, I played forge for 2 and a half hours, and i can see the 3.4 gigs in the hourly reports before the only forge report.

Also I’ll add that an hour of warzone usually uses around about the same 250+ MBs

I find it ridiculous that not only Forge but Campaign require the use of dedicated servers. Completely unnecessary.
