  • vizionlogic vizionlogic (@vizionlogic) reported

    @4Thund3r @charlieINTEL As long as you have HDMI 2.1 support on your Monitor or TV then you shouldn’t have any problems running 4K 120Hz after today’s update if you have the Xbox series X, if you have the Xbox series S I think it’s only 1440p at 120Hz

  • monkeymane69 Raquiis (@monkeymane69) reported

    @ForHonorGame fix your game Xbox servers are down 😐

  • NaterStephanie StephanieHatesMinorities (@NaterStephanie) reported

    A Steven came to fix my xbox 720 yesterday

  • Bruh90008 Bruh (@Bruh90008) reported

    @ModernVintageG Do you think this is real or do you think it was an estimate? I don’t buy it. Especially when the ps5 and Xbox is having major stock issues, the ps5 pro and new Xbox would have probably even more issues with manufacturing the more powerful hardware

  • nassylemak Nas. (@nassylemak) reported

    @is_it_huh HAHA ACTUALLY. You login to xbox more often than me please.

  • _ApexStatus Apex Legends Status (@_ApexStatus) reported

    The Xbox "DDoS" issue should be fixed now!

  • JohnnyNeat Johnny Neat (@JohnnyNeat) reported

    @JGODYT But is the forced crossplay on @xbox addressed? Or did @RavenSoftware ignore the issue again?

  • SpartaRulz Jacob Whalan (@SpartaRulz) reported

    @astaranx 10 million+ is good but the problem with this comparison is that only Xbox and GeForce are available worldwide, Australia and many other countries don't have access to Stadia and PS Now, if they did, I'd say the numbers would be somewhat higher if not close to Xbox in comparison

  • DaReelSebas Sebastian 🇨🇱🇺🇸 (@DaReelSebas) reported

    @SowardTodd @johnny_a1981 @GenePark Dino crisis, Final fantasy, Crash, Metal Fear solid etc.. those definitely define PlayStation just like Elder scrolls could be defined as Xbox legacy, they didn’t start with Xbox, but they made the Xbox popular. Just like Bungie will always be associated with Xbox.

    @AbdullahDreams When customer service is personable, it's so much easier to solve a problem. I remember having issues with my Microsoft account/Xbox account and whenever I spoke to support they always end the message with the name of the person talking to me. These "robotic" replies are aids

  • JinNRubyCreate Jennifer and Jinju Butler (@JinNRubyCreate) reported

    @hellogames could you please release a patch to fix intergalactic warping. I’m stuck in the Euclid galaxy and it crashes every time I warp. Xbox one s series normal mode. It’s crashed 6 times

  • aktur1981 The Divinityman (@aktur1981) reported

    @StayXboxReady @staydeckready Adapter is CFEXPRESS to NVME they are on eBay as well, official Xbox adapter has giving me the weak connection error don't have the aftermarket adapter was thinking about getting one my NVME is 1tb Samsung 980 pro it was in my PS5 til I got a 2tb

  • jamiehk94 Jamie HK (@jamiehk94) reported

    @RavenSoftware Cool update but have you fixed the Xbox Live Silver Membership issue yet? I cannot join/invite friends unless I have a gold membership. Needs fixing!

  • GG_Lyz8a Lyz8a8 (@GG_Lyz8a) reported

    @RollerChampions Im sorry but is it just my problem? The game crashes after crearing a character on xbox series

  • carl_s_lfc Carl Squires (@carl_s_lfc) reported

    @FwostyX3 @FortniteGame I restarted my console when the error message came up that worked for me if it happens again. I think mine was affected because my son turned the Xbox off by the console and not the pad

    @IanMalkaviac Please follow our Official Xbox Support page on Twitter in order to be able to get a Direct Message regarding your issue .

  • oskarpearson Oskar Pearson (@oskarpearson) reported

    @Psythor So, in short, whatever the money-is-no-matter-at-all solution. Perhaps he has an Xbox carrier follow him around like secret service guy with the nuclear codes.

  • frostxfy Frostxfy (@frostxfy) reported

    @Ubisoft @RollerChampions if you are gonna release a game can you atleast make it work. Everytime you go to quick match the game crashes and before you go your not on next gen I'm on Xbox Series X fix your **** please. Not a good start.

  • Dezmcc85 Dez (@Dezmcc85) reported

    @Dee_Batch @JezCorden @_Tom_Henderson_ I think I'm probably just feeling the sting for early adopting and going all out to make sure I got my series X for launch and having next to no exclusive software for it. That's a me problem though. If xbox can crank out a more powerful sku for less overheads good for them.

  • andydennys_ Andy Dennys (@andydennys_) reported

    @spencespencespe @Buck25425 yea its been broken on xbox due to some change in the SDK

  • Animosity_qp Ani (@Animosity_qp) reported

    @RSPN_Pav @_duckworth98 Xbox Series S mate, been broken for like 3 months and we can't LFG For teammates 🤒

  • Ephon Ephon 💎 (@Ephon) reported from Atascadero, California

    @GamingMerchant_ I’m having issues purchasing apex coins, coins not being added to my account on Xbox. Anyone else having this issue or just me?

  • nib95_ NIB (@nib95_) reported

    @TylerSeevers @Francesco2714 @firstadopter Considering other publishers/platforms have been releasing games/exclusives at a good cadence since these new systems launched, seems like it's more of a Microsoft/Xbox issue than a COVID one.

  • SnorWaxx SnorWaxx (@SnorWaxx) reported

    @RSPN_Pav @_duckworth98 PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WE (XBOX DUDES& CHIGGS) WOULD LOVE A CHAT FIX MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD. YOU WANT MONEY? WE WILL GIVE YOU MONEY TO FIX IT. TAKE OUR MONEY AND FIX IT!!!!

  • PolygnotosK Apex not predator (@PolygnotosK) reported

    @RSPN_Pav @_duckworth98 All headsets has the same issue. It's not specific headset related. I have friends with different headphones. I'm using Xbox wireless headset BTW.

  • ShawnClemens04 Shawn Clemens (@ShawnClemens04) reported

    @Riptokus @Pyrrho_Solon @XboxSupport It’s okay because they told us this is how it works. How can you be this blind my friend. You should have researched before you bought that console that’s on you. Even if you had intermediate console knowledge you would know this. Errors happen get over it. Jesus man

  • JonathanScottR6 Jonathan Scott Rowe (@JonathanScottR6) reported

    @ComplexMinded when can we expect a fix for the r seed spawns . They have been broken for a very long time. Nothing spawns in the innards for Xbox 1 or PS4.

  • Not_Josh_EO Kieran Read (@Not_Josh_EO) reported

    @bohemiainteract This may not be the post to comment t this on but I play on xbox and I can't even load any multiplayer games because I'm told there's an issue connecting to the backend. I've already tried restarting my router and reinstalling arma reforger

  • SowardTodd Todd Soward (@SowardTodd) reported

    @DaReelSebas This was the point you were originally arguing against. Crash is Xbox legacy too if that's the case.

  • BillyNarey billy narey (@BillyNarey) reported

    @ForHonorGame Servers are down on Xbox, do you know when there will be a fix?
