Xbox Live Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CheekyBoinc Stefan Dehnert ‎‎ステファン (@CheekyBoinc) reported

    @xuscrus Xcloud is a good service. Especially if Xbox exclusive games are important to you. But their bitrate and stream-quality are unfortunately below par. Microsoft really needs to do something about that.

  • BlueAsold Blue (@BlueAsold) reported

    @XboxSupport Is anyone even trying to fix this after 4Hours?

  • lightwoodgames Katherine (@lightwoodgames) reported

    @SiegfriedX This sucks, I know, but we need to follow that guide before doing anything else. A network issue is very likely the reason, even if it wasn’t at your end. It could be a temporary glitch on Xbox Live, or a problem with “cloud” stuff in certain geographic regions. (1/5)

  • md_hafee_ ICE🥶 (@md_hafee_) reported

    I can't link my epic account to Microsoft account. It is showing error processing credentials from external device and I don't have an xbox. Anyone know how to fix it?

  • Aus_Ranger just another gamer (@Aus_Ranger) reported

    @MetroVideoGame @Xbox @PlayStation When you download the Enhanced Edition it gives the option to download both the DLC at the same time, it comes up with an error, if you try to download the DLC separate it comes up with an error code

  • TheVioletSoul69 Knightess Wolfrie (@TheVioletSoul69) reported

    @XboxSupport why is the word “anime” banned on clubs names?? I’ve seen countless inappropriate names on here for years, but the genre Anime is an issue somehow?? I better see a response.

  • AmiyaRaghav Amiya Raghav (@AmiyaRaghav) reported

    @ps5_india This is not an issue in the case of Xbox series X. It works fine with almost all the resolutions, you just need HDMI port.

  • V1deopolis Videopolis (@V1deopolis) reported

    @AJC2424 This is weird. It's like there's a whole generation of gamers with massive entitlement problems because their chosen format has been the market leader for a while. You know how this works, because you've been ramming it down our throats forever. Want the game? Get an Xbox or PC.

  • TVermin99 𝕋𝕠𝕩𝕚𝕜-𝕍𝕖𝕣𝕞𝕚𝕟(COMMISSIONS OPEN) (@TVermin99) reported

    @JohnnyCooper64 Mainly the Xbox version. The PS3 one had some patches which fixed most of the issue but sadly not all.

  • Conner_Turk Conner Day (@Conner_Turk) reported

    Outbreak crashing on series x is just getting worse, travelling between worlds, game freezes or game just closes Happens to Me and group of freinds. Played for 3 hours last night couldnt get passed world 3 because game crashed 3 times!! @ATVIAssist @Treyarch @XboxSupport fix it!

  • Mrstran28139296 Reiven's employee (@Mrstran28139296) reported

    we also made game for Xbox players unplayable because they crash out every 30 secs but no worries you can buy new bundles so we get reach

  • bigtime88676123 Hotsoup73 (@bigtime88676123) reported

    @Bungie_IT I get error code baboon four times a day it’s 3:14 AM I have 12 latency zero packets lost 100 upload 145 download speed that’s on my Xbox please fix baboon you keep saying it’s on my end but it’s not

  • Lord_Daishi Qlipoth (@Lord_Daishi) reported

    @XboxSupport So it’s been hours with the “status” on the site saying “close to resolving the issue”. This is hardly what anyone would consider close, and it implies the problem has been identified. What’s the hold up?

  • VicV1138 VictorVL (@VicV1138) reported

    @ATVIAssist Why is not possible to unlink Xbox accounts from Activision accounts??? I see a System error

  • Team17Help Team17 Help (@Team17Help) reported

    @user58419581483 Hello! We are sorry to hear that. Can you please do the following steps: Open Windows Settings, go to "Games", then "Xbox Network" and click "Fix it". Please let us know if this resolves the problem with the connection.

  • 16BitMania Donut-San (@16BitMania) reported

    @IGN Yeah, well don’t all PlayStation fans have PCs for this sort of issue. If they lied (the ones full of ****, I know there are those that claim to have a PC) about that and are so anti Xbox console, then just build a ******* PC as powerful as a PlayStation and problem solved.

  • AmbassadorHelp AmbassadorHelp (@AmbassadorHelp) reported

    @elitegamershot @XboxSupport There are currently issues with the page, but South Africa is not part of the supported countries

  • XxDragonStoneXX Wesley (@XxDragonStoneXX) reported

    @MetroVideoGame @Xbox @PlayStation Tried claiming Sams Story on the Playstation Store but gives the same error everyone else is getting… European Region… Bought Gold Edition yesterday

  • Robat245 Tom (@Robat245) reported

    @CallofDuty how do I fix match started loading map issue on warzone for Xbox one?

  • Bami56027211 Bami (@Bami56027211) reported

    @Xbox your attitude for korean user is very bad. you removed korea subtitle from e3 extended event and the important thing is is not the first ! sega not published xbox title like sonic in asia. you ignore this problem. and korea xbox site written japenese and chiness.

  • AgentShadowolf Agentshadowolf (@AgentShadowolf) reported

    @IGN Oh well, what about all the times Sony paid off 3rd party devs to keep games off of Xbox over the years? Anyways PS fanboys always claim they have a gaming PC so whats the issue lol? They can play the game on it just like any other MS first part title

  • HonzaKult Honza_Kult (@HonzaKult) reported

    @MetroVideoGame @Xbox @PlayStation Hi, you don't know why I can't download DLC from the store when I have the game bought complete??? The problem is with the native PS5 version. They say they are not available? Or the enhancement for the PS5 only applies to the main game without dlc.

  • Ninja_Ocelot OtaconOcelot (@Ninja_Ocelot) reported

    @N7Bleed @CGCentralHD98 @BrokenGamezHDR_ Nope, he's 100% right. Xbox PR already said they are moving to “high end” smaller AA games fill out the rental service.

  • StrifeSan StrifeSan (@StrifeSan) reported

    @play_pso2 Sega could you explain what Microsoft did? cause all my other xbox live services work just fine. i can play other games just fine, watch youtube and browse the xbox shop no issue. seems weird to me that everything else works fine but your game.

  • xHarleyQuinnzz xHarleyQuinnz (@xHarleyQuinnzz) reported

    @EpicGamesBackup I’m a player on Xbox and every time I go back to lobby I’m kicked from my party. I get a message saying that there was an error connecting to the server. However, I do not have a bad internet connection. Does this happen to anyone else Where do I report this?

  • IanDjarrell Basil Swift (@IanDjarrell) reported

    @DementedCrumb @play_pso2 no, it's not, that's a seperate problem that has nothing to do with the Login problem that Xbox and Windows 10 users are facing which this tweet is about. Go complain about that on the proper tweet.

  • Bloodpour NotAStudent (@Bloodpour) reported

    @DementedCrumb @porakh46 @play_pso2 if you scroll through the xbox support tweets, games have been having issues one by one for awhile now, it is 75% a Microsoft issue.

  • SearlyC82 Chris Searle (@SearlyC82) reported

    @TheSouthScouse I thought it was really bad by Sony, but not their fault apparently. It’s to do with the processing chip in the console being a higher spec. Xbox experiencing the same if not worse stock issues and performance PC’s that use the same chip are like gold dust too.

  • XxDragonStoneXX Wesley (@XxDragonStoneXX) reported

    @MetroVideoGame @Xbox @PlayStation Hey, just like everyone else I cannot access the DLC’s on PS5… Two Colonels downloads without a problem but Sams Story gives an error when trying to download… Also can’t access Two Colonels in game… When I hit the DLC button it brings up the main ps4 game on ps store

  • IanDjarrell Basil Swift (@IanDjarrell) reported

    @nicklamott @play_pso2 blame Xbox as this is an Microsoft problem.
