    @Colteastwood Xbox is more consumer friendly, even though they go with exclusive to Xbox and PC, it has given cheaper options (Series S, Xcloud) for other platform players to try their service and games.

  • HamTodayGames HamiltonToday Games (@HamTodayGames) reported

    Fortnite had resolved the issue and the game ias once again rubbing smoothly on Xbox. #Fortnite

    @XboxSupport y’all need to fix the problem if your unconnect your controller with your wireless mic still on that your controller doesn’t reconnect on the series x this is ridiculous I shouldn’t have to power reset to fix it

  • PancakeNoLazer Lazah Pancake | Big Little Planet (@PancakeNoLazer) reported

    I'm actually heartbroken at how broken Halo CE Anniversary is on PC. Like, it soft locked my computer, the hit registration on weapons is so bad. Not the crispiness it was on xbox 360 version I played countless hours on, and I'm so disappointed. I had to end my stream due to it.

  • DDawg2001 Dave (@DDawg2001) reported

    @ATVIAssist any idea on when the fix for Xbox ones being turned off by Cold War? I really want to play zombies I could be spending my money on cod points right now :(

  • EderKyle Kyle eder (@EderKyle) reported

    @XboxSupport Are you EVER going to fix the controller losing connection issue? This is getting ridiculous!

  • WarOnFanservice 🌐 Voice of Fanservice 🌐 (@WarOnFanservice) reported

    It will always need an one time online activation. Pretty dissapointed that everyone was silent about this especially all the big physical media guys on youtube. This is a huge issue, Microsoft is essentially selling you a brick. A downgrade from the Xbox One.

  • BigSpack96 Life Long Kraken Fan (@BigSpack96) reported

    Day one of asking @Treyarch to fix the freezing on Xbox series x.

  • ThomasACriswell Itsmeawrestlingfan (@ThomasACriswell) reported

    @OmidSamurai756 @619Keller187 @HollowPoiint My only problem with XBOX is they did not fix the long logins to games like PS5 did.

  • DeeRalphh DeeRalph 💰🏃🏾 (@DeeRalphh) reported

  • ArkIsBroke Elijah Davis (@ArkIsBroke) reported

    @ComplexMinded when are these crashes going to stop on the Xbox series X? I legit crash every time I transfer servers and now when I’m in game running around. This is just getting old and pathetic.

  • HumbleYT_ Humble. (@HumbleYT_) reported

    PC just froze again, I can’t believe this. I had no problem with it when I first got it, and it’s now turned into this monstrosity.. I can hardly play Fortnite anymore, definitely talking to my parents tomorrow about renewing my xbox live.

  • spazfuwa « ★ The Moth Machine 🦋✨ » (@spazfuwa) reported

    @milkluvers Unfortunately my only solution to that problem is using a set of different usernames in certain places associated with certain things-- 😔 For example, I usually use "Mothmachine" in gaming-related spaces besides, like, Steam and Xbox Live I suppose--

    @RockstarSupport someone hacked my social club account, but i can still get into it via my xbox signin, how can i get it back?

  • feltr_ f3rbs (@feltr_) reported

    @Activision @ATVIAssist @Xbox you know it's a slap in the face to your players when you post how much money you guys bring in but let so much problems continue hurting players. Memory and dev errors on xbox series, checking for update during a match? Cheaters running wild. Help!!

  • ttvfastfourteen fastfourteen (@ttvfastfourteen) reported

    @XboxSupport what's going on with this issue that we've had for the past week where once your console disconnects from Xbox Live, it doesn't reconnect for some reason? Any way to fix it?

  • shufixer Shufixer ⛏️👞🎳 (@shufixer) reported

    @timthetatman @RavenSoftware Extreme lagging when trying to use a scope in Zombies. Its so bad it damn near freezes the game. Different players and host all Xbox Series X. Also getting tired of the game freezing and kicking us out also on Zombies Outpost.

  • spid3y_ad adrian (@spid3y_ad) reported

    @XboxSupport Yo did y’all servers crash again

  • TryhardFan Try Hard Fan (@TryhardFan) reported

    @ShanWinTheGod It doesn't. I understand the errors of my original thinking. I know a lot of Xbox players would enjoy a game like Persona.

  • EricAlanWendell Eric Alan Wendell (@EricAlanWendell) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @BungieHelp nothing but error code chicken and/or 5min loading screens for every Xbox screen.... I guess the servers are failing

  • CatgirlFingies Friendly Neighbourhood Catgirl😺 (@CatgirlFingies) reported

    Trying the @XboxANZ streaming service on my phone. It works well with regular wifi that runs on 5ghz network. But there is latency input when using my Series Xbox controller. Could just be how bluetooth is but it is noticeable. Is fun trying games though

  • CJakeMoss4 Jake (@CJakeMoss4) reported

    @RockstarSupport just finished a casino heist with my buddy gamer tag ObitumReaper on @Xbox but he didn’t get what the game said was his actual take. It lacked over $500k and I didn’t receive the missing balance, is this a known issue?

  • NathanKimball13 coolkidd (@NathanKimball13) reported

    @ROLVeStuff Fix it so Xbox players can access shop in typical colors
