Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • HGoonies Hilton Head Goonies (@HGoonies) reported

    @2K please fix the choppiness of your NBA game on Xbox series x you can’t even play because it’s so bad. Sad Xbox one has smoother game play.

  • A_the_Bader Mostly GIFs (@A_the_Bader) reported

    @Wario64 This game is currently broken on Xbox Series X. Will not save consistently. You will lose hours of progress.

  • MeanoPepperino Meano (@MeanoPepperino) reported

    @Treyarch and @ATVIAssist #BlackOpsColdWar makes my Xbox One X shut itself off, because the game freezes the entire console. It's happened 3 times today alone. Is there/will there be a fix for this soon?

  • RealBertSaenz RealBertSaenz (@RealBertSaenz) reported

    @XboxSupport is anyone aware of an issue where the elite series 2 constantly unsyncs with the XSX?Every time I start the console with the controller I have to resync them as I’m unable to control the system.

  • ONI_Assassin Adam ☁️ Jamal (@ONI_Assassin) reported

    @XboxSupport any thoughts on an intermittently shutting down #XboxSeriesX ? There seem to be a few people experiencing this issue. Thanks

  • Braveheart_NZ Roger Kelly (@Braveheart_NZ) reported

    @purexbox Hopefully this issue gets fixed through a firmware update. The Xbox One X didn't have the issue and did output true blacks so hopefully the new consoles can be patched to sort this. I'd like my blacks to be true black,not the darkest shade of grey.

  • JamesFlorida Local Hero ⚡️ (@JamesFlorida) reported

    @OpTicAlexJones I'm on xbox one. It doesn't just crash it turns off the whole machine. Never seen this before.

  • AgibailVictoria abigail 🍉 (@AgibailVictoria) reported

    So explain to me how I was able to get an Xbox series x into my @Walmart cart, type in my card info, and when I would go to process it, it would be out of stock? Fix your system Walmart, you have plenty of money to have a 5 minute hold once it’s in your cart.

  • TheeAidanG Aidan G (@TheeAidanG) reported

    @DeadByBHVR I'm unsure if you guys are aware but the clowns pulcinella outfit which is available on gamepass ultimate is not being detected by the game on Xbox series X. Dont know if it's only me that has the problem but I'm unable to equip it. 🥺

  • Krusty_SZN Krusty SZN 🐺 (@Krusty_SZN) reported

    @Prestinni Dunno if it’s a PC thing too, but on XBOX mine was crashing my console due to the wrong version being downloaded. Haven’t had the issue since! Hope this helps

  • Im_franko_mane Franko (@Im_franko_mane) reported from Columbus, Georgia

    @assassinscreed please fix the screen tearing on #xbox #XboxOneX

  • Spectrumbots42 Michael Reid (@Spectrumbots42) reported

    @Toadsanime Xbox One: Dead or Alive 6. PS4: Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy.

  • ROBMER ROBERT MERCER (@ROBMER) reported

    @ApeCast_ Probably well into 2021i would think, though there seems to be a shortage here in the UK as one of the big outlets has cancelled its order for some reason,also problems with the new Xbox range even Amazon have no stock at this time.

  • HGoonies Hilton Head Goonies (@HGoonies) reported

    @2KSupport why is Xbox series X so choppy and laggy??? I have paid $150 for this game in total and can’t even play it, the game is better on Xbox one! How do we fix this???

  • haveyouseen01 HaveYouSeen (@haveyouseen01) reported

    I’m calling it, I’ve seen enough... I don’t think it’s Xbox 360 level of problems (even though that didn’t surface till months later), there are a lot of PS5 artifact-ing issues, Sony needs to address this

  • enocherr pain (@enocherr) reported

    @__Regis_ @Puertorock77_ They have similar loading times. Its not a bottleneck issue in the xbox

  • ChaskyHenry Henry Chasky (@ChaskyHenry) reported

    @watchdogsgame Ubisoft i must honestly ask what the hell were u doing these past 7 to 8 months when this hame was originally supposed to release in March?what?i bought this game on my xbox one x and can't even play it cuz it continues to crash.this happening for like all platforms.Unacceptable

  • steyracrx PS5xxx124 (@steyracrx) reported

    @Alejandroid1979 I could notice the extra latency on the 1X over the Pro. So instead of fixing the problem they just marketed that they fixed the problem.. Typical Xbox, marketing to us like we are morons, it explains the people the marketing works on.

  • mrflorida a Duval County guy (@mrflorida) reported

    yo @Beluba @Ronnie2K @2KSupport my friends list is not showing on my phone like it used to on the Xbox One. I'm on Series X. Not the only one with this issue. Can't invite friends to my city. WHATS UP BRUH!!!

  • jimsr00 jon (@jimsr00) reported

    xbox elite controllers are so bad like this is my third one broken

  • ronnyscheidt 𝕣𝕠𝕟𝕟𝕪𝕤𝕔𝕙𝕖𝕚𝕕𝕥𝟙 (@ronnyscheidt) reported

    @TheDreadfulLord @Ace55K @IGN Xbox had the same problems before Covid as well, I don't think it's only Covid, I mean Insomniac Games finished their game as well and they outperformed any other title when it was about bringing great visuals, with good performance on high speed loading times *Miles Morales

  • theInfinit01 Infinite 1 (@theInfinit01) reported

    @ATVIAssist @Activision , please fix Cold War MP, it keeps crashing my Xbox completely shutting it down

  • RealKayoKano Kayo Kano (@RealKayoKano) reported

    After another failed try to get the #SeriesX i'm not even mad anymore. I'm disappointed in @Xbox letting scalpers get them consoles along with #Playstation I'm disappointed them consoles was released hella faulty with problems. I'm a wait it out until Early 20201.

  • chrisdrich34 chris richardson (@chrisdrich34) reported

    @XboxSupport hey I got the series x but the controller LT button is not working, it’s making some clicking sound when I push it in. How can y’all help?

  • MattByrnes1 Matt Byrnes BLM❤️ (@MattByrnes1) reported

    @RealBertSaenz @XboxSupport I've had no issues with my Elite V2 and the XSS. Hopefully yours gets figured out

  • AverageDPT AverageDPT (@AverageDPT) reported

    @Wario64 just a heads up this game is completely broken on Xbox unable to save progress after 30 minutes of gameplay they don't know when the patch is coming out to fix it they just say the upcoming weeks

  • _Groceryboy JayBee (@_Groceryboy) reported

    @Xbox @TBlair64 You should have given current live and game pass members first shot at preorders. Instead many get left out, only to see them going for premiums on eBay. You failed your base, the ones that have bought games, and subscribe to your service.
