Xbox Live Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Faykabe_ Peter Williams (@Faykabe_) reported

    @PlayStation So if I own the games already digitally I have to pay for a service to play them. Grand theft auto vice city stories I had that on my ps3… Xbox backwards compatible is by far a better consumer friendly option. If you can’t do it better why bother

  • aravindhram Aravindh Ramachandran (@aravindhram) reported

    @PlayStation Very expensive for combining ps now & ps+ service. No assurance of new games be available to download for free on day 1 like how it is currently in Xbox game pass. Stick to basic ps+ tier till they actually compete with Xbox game pass.

  • Archaoneternal Abbas عباس (@Archaoneternal) reported

    @shouldseemenow @purchase_jack @hawaiinguy808 Games are my hobby, so ill make comparisons.. hence i said that i dont want wb to be bought by xbox because “legacy” lack of new games is my biggest issue with xbox right now.

  • AdamAppleltree Adam A (@AdamAppleltree) reported

    @Marble19841 @SanderKodasmaa @AShortyfei You gave me ZERO cited arguments beyond a "trust me bro". You take issue with the fact the Xbox is more competitive this generation, and are trying to impose your own delusions on why. But whatever helps you sleep at night I guess. Btw your definition of "common sense" is lacking

  • thedukeofgrim The Duke of Grim (@thedukeofgrim) reported

    @yesmynameissumo Depends on the industry. If the companies came together and said due to rising costs, covid issues and paying employees more, games are now 70 then fine. But Hogwarts Legacy being 60 on XBox One but 70 on Series X is bullshit. And I don't think anyone is wrong for paying it also.

  • frisbie147 Conor (@frisbie147) reported

    @petey_pro @PMS_Jordan If dualsense has cheap triggers then what would you call the Xbox one controller? I had to take mine apart to fix the triggers

  • tylerramse1 tylerramse (@tylerramse1) reported

    @FortniteStatus you guys can fix some issues that don't really affect people that bad or fix a ****** issue for instance mouse problem with xbox within 2 hours but can't add low meshes back kinda ******* dumb for being a billion dollar company so I am gonna so **** YOU.

  • _MsFUNSiZ3 Ikea Turner (@_MsFUNSiZ3) reported

    @iAM_iKandi @elgato I will be switching some time this week. So sad that everyone is having this issue and they haven’t found a solution. We spend way too much money for this to be happening to our equipment. I think it’s happening more now with the new gen Xbox too.

  • Expresso_ee Expresso (@Expresso_ee) reported

    @GrimalkinAngel I wish I still have my 360 but then again, it won’t let me sign in to Xbox live so I let my uncle take it

  • Ashleyscowcroft Ashley scowcroft (@Ashleyscowcroft) reported

    @Dvls6691 @Hadesr66 @Saltiest_Gaming Gameplay is to show you what the game looks like so you know whether you want to play it or not. By your logic Netflix or Disney+ or any other subscription service shouldn't have any trailers or info on what you're about to watch. Also people still buy games on Xbox/PC.

  • DUKEYP00KEY DukeyPookey (@DUKEYP00KEY) reported

    @Ki11ersix @PlayWonderlands The Flakker and bounce grenade incident on borderlands 3 where 3 of my friends would equip flakkers and some grenade that looked like bouncy ***** that would then turn into more ***** they would spam fire Flakker and the grenades and constantly crash my poor little Xbox.

  • Alpha_J95 Alpha-J (@Alpha_J95) reported

    @DrewskysChannel Loreley isn’t broken at all. On console all you ever see is invis hunters. Renewals barely get a look in. Too many times it’s 3 stack invis hunters. Not to mention M&K users on Xbox ruining PS4/5 players experience. But we move.

  • DemonBlueDays Tom Williams (@DemonBlueDays) reported

    @Scaryone05 @Ludens74781390 @XboxInfinite117 Not really, you don't look at just one corner of the screen when gaming, so why focus on one period overall? There's still time this generation for Xbox to turn it around but at the moment they're still lagging behind

  • GrumpyGamersPod Grumpy Gamers Podcast (@GrumpyGamersPod) reported

    @ClarkeCoua55 @Xbox Not just me then. That’s a relief. I spoke to their customer service the other day who assured me they were in stock but after running some tests they escalated it to a higher team. I still haven’t heard back. 😒

  • ShawnAyeeee Shawn Farver (@ShawnAyeeee) reported

    @itzjeremy @XcloudTimdog Xbox actually almost shut its servers down after the release of Xbox one because of marketing. Then PS took over COD and everyone switched. Xbox fired the team and Phil Spencer asked if he could have a shot at turning it around and the rest is history.

  • LeeCowley1 Lee Cowley (@LeeCowley1) reported

    @ferraridreams @Nibellion Xbox need it to sell their product. PlayStation have no issues selling their product. Xbox also have Microsoft banking them to help them “win”

  • alltime_josh Josh Riley (@alltime_josh) reported from Hamilton, Ontario

    @Nibellion "regularly refreshed" doesn't guarantee those first party titles or exclusives will permanently stay on the service the same way Xbox studios games do.

  • echo5524 Echo5524 (@echo5524) reported

    @GearboxOfficial I preordered the game and am loving it but there seems to be a shut down issue on Xbox when your character dies, I'm not sure how widespread it is but I did a quick search and it was a topic of discussion, just wondering when a possible fix is coming?

  • GeorgePennet George Pennet (@GeorgePennet) reported

    @MrJad1920 @FIX120Hz “sdk issue is what I am refrencing because of the changes that happend to submit the information to xbox servers” please stop I really didn’t want to offense you. You simply have no idea what you are talking about.

  • vacivt VaciVt (@vacivt) reported

    @TheVeryMadPaih No xbox needed if you have pc/windows. Subsciption based gaming service.

  • MiguelLiberato1 Miguel Liberato (@MiguelLiberato1) reported

    @CrusaderKings When can i download the game on xbox? I live in europe i think alot people have the same problem😢

  • ps5unban PlayStation 5 Unban Bot (@ps5unban) reported

    I read every line of EULAs and I am 100% confident that my banned machine and my banned friends did not violate them. Both were banned without a persuasive reason from your customer service! I had no issue with #XBOX and #NintendoSwitch for years btw! (3/7)

  • Apwatson88 Alex Watson (@Apwatson88) reported

    @SHiFTstatus Is it only crossplay that has these issues? My brother and I are consistently having issues (I’m PS5, he’s series X). But he played with some friends on Xbox right after we gave up and they had no issues.

  • Bradley_5314 Bradley (@Bradley_5314) reported

    @GodsPetDog Putting a paywall on classic games for 120 euros per year, putting paywall behind demos. PS now will not be playable for 99% of the PS users because of their ****** cloud streaming service. All they had to do was copy gamepass + BC, and i dont even own an xbox lmao

  • REC0NZ GH0ST (@REC0NZ) reported

    @SHiFTstatus having issues with cross-play connection. I'm on PC and mates are on Xbox. having trouble with the freezing, stuck walking one-way [fall off certain maps] and UI shows teammates and companion are dead.

  • alexisgman AlexisGman (@alexisgman) reported

    @DrewskysChannel While I don't agree with loreley as I'm on Console (Xbox) my issue is that Bad connections and Hit Detection went out of control. Invis changes are 50/50 for me. Chappy and Lorenzo should get a hit more. Fusions like Main could use a Nerf. But I get your point

  • ferraridreams Puertorican Spice. (@ferraridreams) reported

    @LeeCowley1 @Nibellion Last time i saw, both consoles are sold out… this has nothing to do with selling consoles… xbox is focusing on becoming a service.

  • xxDSQUAREDx Kurt "xxDSQUARED" Sanchez (@xxDSQUAREDx) reported

    @ProjWinter I CANT TURN ON MY CROSSPLAY ON XBOX SERIES X!!!!! FIX THIS!!!!

  • YolaEbolaEcola Just an A**hole German (@YolaEbolaEcola) reported

    @lilsluttybby I'm not much of a playstation 5 person Maybe the PlayStation 2 with crash bandicoot monster mayhem Or an XBOX 360 with halo 2
