Xbox Live Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • eat_stuff Woof! (@eat_stuff) reported

    @Halo No screenshot unfortunately. Had to return my series X after spending 18 months trying to get one because the wireless controller doesn’t work and it’s a known issue that hasn’t been fixed. Similarly, I had 3, Xbox 360s red ring on me back in the day.

  • macphisto96 Mr. MacPhisto (@macphisto96) reported

    @WhatafiendCorey @RomeGoLARGE @Sir_Real_One Then what happened with GT7? You also realize most of the people saying anything about this are Sony people. I had no issue playing anything all weekend. Means it was isolated. Has Xbox Live ever been hacked? Why is Sony moving to a MS backend?

  • officialtyeager DBG (@officialtyeager) reported

    @JAAY_ROCK_ It’s a fact the entire Xbox can’t be accessed for gaming it’s been days. This was a small crash and people were rewarded for it. That’s the fact. Tryna use 1 games server to excuse Xbox’s DRM. Same as the button cell issue yall said ps this and that while Xbox has the same thing.

  • UltraNstinctz Ultra Nstinctz (@UltraNstinctz) reported

    @thicc_stick_boi Agreed, you shouldn't and Xbox's DRM issues is inexcusable, but let's be real...most people who pirate games, do so for the sole reason of not having to pay for them

  • Inspecter797 Taylor (@Inspecter797) reported

    The problem with the Deadpool movies to me is that all the humor felt like it was written be a 12 year old on Xbox Live. It gets tiresome real quick.

  • UltraNstinctz Ultra Nstinctz (@UltraNstinctz) reported

    @RoninRakurai @JezCorden Why are you shocked? Were you shocked when PS fans deflected G2& fiasco? Some Xbox fans are deflecting the XBL issues, because they are console warriors. The same when some PS fans deflected GT7 issues.

  • FuzionRetro RetroFuzion Gaming (@FuzionRetro) reported

    @CubsVgl Maybe they haven't had an issue. I haven't. Everything on my xbox has worked fine.

  • JustAnotherGa Just Another Gamer (@JustAnotherGa) reported

    @Reignited_Spyro @meskillmuse @getonthestiix Yeah except it's not a flaw that's just on xbox and that's why it's being overblown the bug is a problem only on xbox currently but it's a bug in the game sharing drm that's on all consoles so it's obvious biased fanboys trying to push a narrative

  • Azetti33 AG (@Azetti33) reported

    @MLBTheShow is there a fix for the batter conflict yet..? At this point, I've deleted the pitcher I made just to try because I CANNOT load my batter back to my Xbox. Super frustrating. Nothing working.

  • Palsooooo The Unholy Thornmarsh (@Palsooooo) reported

    @MldGhost You're a ******* idiot and it shows. Tell me how they "listened" because from what we know, they do nothing. DRM is the worst thing inside XBOX, and you can't play anything when they're under outage. And yet you still begging them to **** you? Can't stop being obsessed about PS?

  • TheEuropaQueen Winter (@TheEuropaQueen) reported

    Hhmmmm… There’s nothing wrong with my internet. There’s nothing wrong with my xbox live subscription. So why do I keep getting weasel, chicken and centipede error codes all day? Help… @BungieHelp #Destiny2

  • UltraNstinctz Ultra Nstinctz (@UltraNstinctz) reported

    @MldGhost This DRM issue has been the elephant in the room. Xbox has made a lot of great decision and has turned things around from the Xbox One era. DRM is still one thing they have not corrected from that era.

  • FlameLOGNET Joe (@FlameLOGNET) reported

    The only reason I never actually commented on the xbox DRM thing from a mild outage that only happened once in like...years? Is because I'd much rather people who got affected voice their opinion. I wasn't so i don't have a square to stand on. Sorry

  • getonthestiix TRIANGLE STIIX 🔺️ (@getonthestiix) reported

    @SpartanDusk @ang3lface87 Xbox was supposed to abandon DRM last generation. If you understand the concept of a trojan horse, you should know that I am not calling smart delivery the cause of the outage

  • HoodFavMamba 🕊🖤 (@HoodFavMamba) reported

    How do you fix this dumbass **** where it says I don’t have Xbox live when I actually do.. everytime I try to load into the pro am gym it says I have to buy live

  • meskillmuse Meskillmuse (@meskillmuse) reported

    @JustAnotherGa @getonthestiix @Reignited_Spyro Every company uses a form of DRM on many games and it's existed for years. It's just now it's an issue because its Xbox lol

  • REDCORNN1 REDCORNN (@REDCORNN1) reported

    @XboxSupport I could play an hour ago after not being able to all weekend. I get off for dinner and come back to the same issues. Worst of all I can even call support and the bs server status site is blatantly lying to people that pay for Saud services.

  • rickysuezo Ricky Suezo (@rickysuezo) reported

    Sony fans talking about Xbox server outage like Sony didn’t have one so bad that congress had to investigate it. #PlayStation

  • RetroFear_ Fear (@RetroFear_) reported

    Phil Spencer has been awfully quiet these past few days, why hasn’t he made a statement addressing the DRM issue? He can live stream Elden Ring to communicate with the Xbox “community” but as soon as **** hits the fan he hides.

  • 2xFeather Feather 2x (@2xFeather) reported

    @Xbox @PlayApex Please fix game chat bug for series X/S players. No communication for most the season?!

  • robzombie_9421 Richard (@robzombie_9421) reported

    Is anyone else having trouble with their Xbox?? @XboxSupport

  • TyDaSilencerGme TyDaSilencer (@TyDaSilencerGme) reported

    @KillerSnipeSh0t @AndreaPichinini @Jim_Sauryan No she probably isn't game sharing and has her own profile set as the home profile on her Xbox. That's why so many people had a problem playing offline.

  • getonthestiix TRIANGLE STIIX 🔺️ (@getonthestiix) reported

    @Sameenergy0 @ang3lface87 People lost access to physical games because Microsoft had a network issue. People were online and couldnt play their games. It's actually more than DRM. It's Xbox literally controlling the license to the games you pay for. It's indefensible that it happened at all.

  • UltraNstinctz Ultra Nstinctz (@UltraNstinctz) reported

    @thicc_stick_boi Agreed, you shouldn't have to do that and Xbox's DRM issues is inexcusable, but let's be real...most people who pirate games they don't own, do so for the sole purpose of not having to pay for them

  • Fl1ppy123 Josh Woolman (@Fl1ppy123) reported

    @XboxSupport Still broken.

  • juanmoregaming Juan More Gaming (@juanmoregaming) reported

    @ItsBenjaninja @MrBayramPlays how the heck is that even legal?? Dang. Alright, workaround #2, does Xbox have any remote desktop apps, or does Parsec web work in Xbox Edge? Then you could connect to your cloud PC or desktop from a remote play on Xbox and then login to GFN or whatever, lol.

  • rawuljr jr (@rawuljr) reported

    How do you fix Xbox game chat bug?

  • GameSack Game Sack (@GameSack) reported

    @ITCHYisVegeta @Xbox @XboxSupport It’s not on. Even if it were, though, the issue should not exist.

  • GregT04660768 GregT (@GregT04660768) reported

    Don't let them get Microsoft to lower your online security. These ppl claiming to be xbox fans complaining about do this for off line play. Want u guys to lower your security to hack xbox consoles. Please be aware of these bad actors. No body knew about an outage but Twitter.

  • LeBonzBrink Brink GCT | Ben (@LeBonzBrink) reported

    Why does my second account not work and what can I do to fix it, it just says Xbox live connection needed.
