    @SixStringHeroX @Mynameisgamer1 @AndreaPichinini PC has always won when it comes to the war of peasants lol. You ponies and Xbots can argue all you want about console sales and service subs, PC gets it all. Only Xbox has supported PC releases since day one so Xbox has my respect. Sony has hid behind exclusivity for too long.

  • agentnibbles5 Agent Nibbles V (@agentnibbles5) reported

    @MalikLabz @bottygerjoe @thicc_stick_boi It was so broken on Xbox and I warned my friends that it's badly optimized on PC and expect it to be worse on console. They said I'm just a blind hater and after it launched I told them I don't wanna hear anything about that game because I'm just a blind hater.

  • Tyler_Smith93_ Tyler Smith (@Tyler_Smith93_) reported

    @vchillibean06 Yes, I lag every online game I play even though my Xbox says I’m on like 50 ping, just bought the new Xbox too.

  • Official_PSASD Official-PSASD | #AllStarsRound2 (@Official_PSASD) reported

    @CressOfLight @stlcty03 @PlayStation Yeah, then maybe Sony/PlayStation could release Crash Bandicoot or Spyro in PC (which they made a great deal with Steam) or possibly Xbox or Nintendo

  • chyld989 Tom Legg (@chyld989) reported

    @Jalapen_Neo @tamoorh Yep. Unfortunately the original Xbox One wasn't as powerful as it should have been so the feature could cause a decent amount of lag so it was eventually scrapped. The new systems shouldn't have a problem with it though, so I'd love for it to come back.

  • ryan_boulds Ryan Boulds (@ryan_boulds) reported

    @UbisoftSupport It happens on: Servers: East US, south central US, central US, and West US. So all. Consoles: Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X. I don’t know anyone playing on Series S/X consoles, so I do not know if it is also on there. But my friends and I had the issues on all those mentioned

  • radiatastory69 radiatastory69 (@radiatastory69) reported

    @NafeezHosein @LipsyncLizard @Wario64 1st) game is on gamepass so no one is buying halo infinite on xbox since no one buys games on the console if it's avaialble ont he service there is zero incentive to spend a dime on the game 2nd) physical is still better than digitla on console since u own somehting once the

  • isaacgary16 Erato (@isaacgary16) reported

    I'm really disappointed. Currently I'm stationed overseas and do enjoy my games so I decided to buy an Xbox Series S Jan 14, 2 days ago. In that small amount of time from around 10:00 pm to now, I've dealt with 3 power issues, and now it won't turn on. @Xbox @Microsoft

  • HamxMargera S̵̱̚ỏ̵͜ṳ̵͠l̷̯̍ ̷͚͋Ḑ̷͐e̶̖͠c̵̢̎ä̴̼́n̵̰̈́ted 😈 (@HamxMargera) reported

    Y'all Gotta Stop Bringing Up God Of War Like I Ever Gave A **** About That Series Even When I Was A Playstation Owner 😭 Maybe If PlayStation Drop Another Sly Cooper I'll Be Jealous, But Crash And Spyro Being On Xbox Was Enough For Me To Not Give A **** About PS4 Or PS5.

  • iTRUEStealth TRUEStealth (@iTRUEStealth) reported

    @JezCorden Game DVR and Japanese support are definitely major issues, alongside poor Store OS. It's good that DVR is at least mentioned by Xbox and honestly, the 3rd party issues could so easily be solved by bringing XLA back (which is probably why they don't) Hopefully, sooner than later

  • MBeatings MajorBeatings (@MBeatings) reported

    @XboxSupport is there an option to disable quick resume on the XBSX? If i play a game where i have to connect to a game server, quick resumes doesnt work and i have to restart the game anyway. Clearly its an issue, any solutions in the pipeline?

  • chetfaliszek Chet Faliszek (@chetfaliszek) reported

    @_LarZen_ @MitchyD @StrayBombay We are having an issue where Xbox players may be matching into wrong regions. A patch is coming early this week.

  • NaterStephanie StephanieHatesMinorities (@NaterStephanie) reported

    A my grandma came to fix my xbox 720 yesterday

  • sul7f sul7f (@sul7f) reported

    @totallynotretro @bottygerjoe @thicc_stick_boi Yeah buddy, nobody’s using that ****** app where your SSD is bricked lol, they gotta fix it asap otherwise people will only buy the games through steam like what they’re doing now And being on xbox isn’t an argument,it’s day/date with day1 GP which is the majority of Xbox owners

  • darryljoyce1 Raging_Texan69 (@darryljoyce1) reported

    @RavenSoftware can you please fix the crashing issue with Modern warfare on Xbox series s I can't even change my class or anything else without it crashing.

  • deanhatescoffee Dean Nelson (@deanhatescoffee) reported

    Dear @Windows - please figure out a way to get the @Xbox Accessories app to notify us when there are firmware updates for our stuff. Better yet, integrate it into the Xbox app. It would have saved me hours of researching and feeling like my stuff was broken. Thanks.

  • CrazyJuan77 CrazyJuan (@CrazyJuan77) reported

    @Sinful_SM @BondSarah_Bond Hey I'm just saying every single time someone has an issue with me saying something about forced crossplay they have twitch in the bio. It's fascinating. Thing is you're not the arbiter when it's a good time to talk about Xbox keeping it's promises to it's buyers.

  • XboxJuan4K Xbox Juan (@XboxJuan4K) reported

    @AEGRO_84 Sony likes to release early in the year and Microsoft likes it at the end of the year. Different approach by 2 companies. One thing that doesn’t fail on the Xbox is that they release some great content every month on their service. Including a lot of AAA third party day and date

  • sul7f sul7f (@sul7f) reported

    @totallynotretro @bottygerjoe @thicc_stick_boi Gamepass is on PC, but only through the ****** xbox app where your SSD literally gets bricked and cant delete/uninstall previous Xbox games on it unless you formatted the whole thing,it’s a massive issue and caused pc gamers to flock to steam or even pirating rather than using GP

  • Duckfartzsmelln Phil Harper (@Duckfartzsmelln) reported

    @XboxSupport bro fix party chat

  • elitherealist1 TheRealist1 (@elitherealist1) reported

    @RomeGoLARGE The reason why nobody is asking is because we know the answer. Nintendo has no issues moving units, PlayStation and XBox do. If Sony and MS could sell games like Nintendo they wouldn't be on PC either. PC players are already emulating anyway.

  • NaterStephanie StephanieHatesMinorities (@NaterStephanie) reported

    A dshoe10 came to fix my xbox 720 yesterday

  • BuggyB0i Thalia (Tired) (@BuggyB0i) reported

    @pokedude1110 @OirishJedi @nintendolife Which makes sense, xbox doesn't have a huge market in japan so no xbos. I remember a similar issue with Square Enix concerning Kingdom Hearts, they were releasing games across sony and nintendo platforms in the weirdest way, only recently making those games relatively accessable

  • yosbruh yos (@yosbruh) reported

    @samfischer354 @RavenSoftware Someone how I can now play the game, and it's just lagging a little cuz I haven't played in months because of goldflake. Graphics aren't that bad my xbox just needs to get used to me playing wz and not destiny

  • Guardable tomhas (@Guardable) reported

    i think my xbox is broken

  • fraser_oakbro Fraser Bramley (@fraser_oakbro) reported

    @ColossalOrder come on guys I’ve played this game for years and I finally bought the last few bits of DLC for pc and it’s broken my game with a fatal GC error not really on is it when I have over 3000 hours on Xbox and pc! Sort it out asap own all dlc on Xbox no problems at all!

  • infernus_sj Sermed Marcel Jaber (@infernus_sj) reported

    i noticed an increase of ingame input lag when i'm in party chat, the chat mixer also affects the input latency (depends on what you're choosing, i think 80% affects input lag the least) why is that? @XboxSupport

  • qchizel chimmychongers (@qchizel) reported

    @Xbox RB, since it is now broken.

  • SquarebodyMatt Matty Cruz (@SquarebodyMatt) reported

    @idk6790 No problem I’m happy to give back to apex community 😎 Do you need your code for Xbox, PS, Switch or PC (Origin) ?
