    @SonySanDiego so I have to chose between not playing the show for the first time in 10 years on my #Xbox because I can't get rewards for rtts OR wait till you fix your systems #SendCompensation #stubs

    @fuzzybinary The main problem we had on Halo Wars 1 Xbox 360, near the end, was trying to figure out where some persistent (long term) allocations that grew over time were coming from, and why. They would slowly eat a heap and then cause issues. It required good tools.

    @CallofDuty @Activision fix dev error for xbox

  • AdrianGraham19 DarthCuddles89 (@AdrianGraham19) reported

    @xboxinsider Doing this beta test for pc only is gonna be a major downside. Consoles will give you more trouble and therefore are the priority,not to mention you'll have just as significant amount of player on xbox as you would on pc. Consoles will always give you far more trouble.

  • Wilamay18 Lance M (@Wilamay18) reported

    @MLBTheShow I play on Xbox, been waiting forever for this, had no problems during early access. Then the game pass users show up. Unplayable. How tf they gunna put this on game pass on release day? SMH.. screw the people who paid money. @SonySanDiego @MLBTheShow

  • rjmorris22 Robert Morris (@rjmorris22) reported

  • NBikcin Nikky Bikcin (@NBikcin) reported

    @PS4Revolution @majornelson Lol Ponies trying to criticize Xbox for taking this long but didn’t criticize Somy for making a previous feature that was free (Online gaming PS3) into a paid service.

  • TheGamingJediHd Jedi (@TheGamingJediHd) reported

    @conradwood79 @MLBTheShow It hasn't even been a week since the game has been out... and you have to realize this is the first time ever they are doing cross platform. There is thousands of people from xbox that play this game now. People knew this may happen and they are already trying to fix it

  • OfficialNawaz Ibrahim (@OfficialNawaz) reported

    Fix your POS console @Xbox

  • conradwood79 Conrad Wood (@conradwood79) reported

    @TheGamingJediHd @MLBTheShow I respect your opinion. But they new it was going to be on Xbox and Game pass for a year. Plus knowing they had issues in the past it should have been a huge focus. People paid $30 extra to play early and it was a disaster.

  • m3t4lw01f Metal Wolf (@m3t4lw01f) reported

    Overall a solid service I'd say. I think most of my issues with it at present are due to accessing via Starlink. Definitely recommend trying this out for sure. Nice work @Xbox @XboxGamePass. Only feedback I have: when there's high packet loss, automatically pause and warn me.

  • Azurahson Aikana'Ro (@Azurahson) reported

    @No_Limit_Gamer @Optimus_Code What about my salty? I have no issue with Xbox, their doing great which I think is awesome, I just think Xbox fanboys are pathetic

  • Grayden_Laman Grayden Laman (@Grayden_Laman) reported

    @MLBTheShow plz fix the god damn servers. I don’t understand why u thought giving this game for free on the Xbox Game Pass was a good idea if you didn’t have the server capacity to host all the PS users and Xbox users.

  • Subnova7 Subnova7 (@Subnova7) reported

    @ATVIAssist I literally can't open Black ops Cold War. It's just stuck on the "box art" screen that comes up after selecting the game. it never loads, and it never closes. No error messages. Nothing. I've tried everything from Xbox's end for trouble shooting. Please help

    @2kproamisbroken @NBA2K @Xbox you acting like game modes haven’t been broken before i am not beefing with u again

  • ech0es___ ech0es_ (@ech0es___) reported

    @TriggerTrashTTV 💯 I wanna play too and the servers stuff does suck, but people need to be patient. Most games have issues the opening night/week, but the Show has that AND another whole group of thousands/millions players from Xbox. I’m fortunate they’re working at all.

  • okStevieee Stevie (@okStevieee) reported

    @OVOPOGGERS Yeah bro, the Xbox player base made the servers crash since it’s the first time MLB has had this many players. They’ll fix this **** soon tho, MLB has been a W

  • thestadialife The Stadia Life (@thestadialife) reported

    So I was invited to the Xbox Game Streaming beta. Tried it out tonight. Keep in mind I play on Starlink... 1. Overall it's the games you know and love 2. Input lag was passable 3. Not as sensitive to packet loss as Stadia and didn't boot me as often 4. Lots of graphical hitches

    @AndreaPichinini Poor Xbox is doing everything wrong . They should focus on selling videos through some kind of videopass service, cause making games is impossible.
