  • n3c8 Mat Hattersley (@n3c8) reported

    @olorinhenderson @CarlTSpeak @Ofcom Like you said, there's good and bad on both sides. But realistically if you come to me complaining of slow xbox downloads, I guarantee the problem isnt on net.

  • PeterOvo5 PeterOvo (@PeterOvo5) reported

    @BigCJohnsun @OhNoItsAlexx With your solution I can authenticate my account on 50 consoles , download my games and disconnect all 50 consoles. I have 50 copies of the game being played and Xbox is only getting paid for one. Do you see the problem?

  • kurtiscorrect Kurt (@kurtiscorrect) reported

    @Kratos__117 @RomeGoLARGE Implementation is fine, messaging is ****. Xbox themselves have acknowledged the need to provide better messaging, especially at the error level.

  • Zygeon1 Zygeon (@Zygeon1) reported

    @MrEdwardWinter1 @GameSpot Bro, i switched to pc and ive had more issues with gaming in a month than i ever had my 6 years playing on the ps4 and xbox one. Pc is great but dont sugar coat the issues

  • gabelovesjared gabe (@gabelovesjared) reported

    does anybody know how to fix controller lag on #MLBTheShow22 on xbox

  • Discover_Gnosis Katlin Smith (@Discover_Gnosis) reported

    The gas prices being raised and the food shortages are caused by the sanctions you wanted. Famine is going to be a big problem across the world because you thought stopping a kid from playing xbox would stop the war.

  • 4KMadLad Balans Right-hand Boi (@4KMadLad) reported

    @XboxSupport I still can’t launch my game, and peeping other comments here, I’m not alone. Y’all desperately need to fix this, permanently, for every single one of your paying customers, right now.

  • KingCobraLPM LaPuppetMaestro (@KingCobraLPM) reported

    @JoshBiden4 @Xbox @XboxSupport I don’t need anything fixed I still have the account. Some how they are making an identical account without the gamer score. Think they mod newly made accounts. My problem is they are pretending to be me and say they like children and doing things that will start a hunt 4me

  • Limb0Dancer88 🇺🇸Matmicro (@Limb0Dancer88) reported

    @MSFSofficial Still totally lagging on Xbox series X...WORLD MAP...BEFORE TAKEOFF AND LANDING..what's the problem??

  • halph_pint Halph Pint 🍺 (@halph_pint) reported

    @BrokenGamezHDR_ @OfficialXboxU The ONLY reason Xbox can sustain this because they’re backed by trillion dollar MS…service itself is taking a bath…

  • mcquack306 (The Shield) (@mcquack306) reported

    @MalikLabz @bottygerjoe Exactly… don’t understand the comparison between Sony and Microsoft when they obviously have different financial capabilities. One company can’t necessarily meet the same practices as another. Xbox couldn’t sell games before so they made a service. PS still selling, so no change

  • iTwerk4Coins ʞɹǝʍ⊥ (@iTwerk4Coins) reported

    @RealLizardKingz @NikoMueller So here you are judging 343 and not xbox. So your real problem is the third party developers?

  • insomniainsect Quinn 🇺🇦 (@insomniainsect) reported

    @Xbox @PlayApex Fix your slow *** console. Takes like an extra five seconds to click on something as simple as my internet in settings. It’s probably faster mentally than the entirety of your company however.

  • Aubz_5 Aubrey (@Aubz_5) reported

    @XboxSupport Still not working for me:/. especially my Minecraft it’s like completely broken. Minecraft is the only game i can actually launch (dosent help when it don’t work). My minecraft is back to the very first version and still says “coming soon” for the servers. Please fish this xbox.

  • DevinWi39171068 Devin Wilson (@DevinWi39171068) reported

    @Xbox are y’all ever going to actually resolve the issues over the last few days? Or are y’all just gonna keep posting random stuff while millions can’t even play their games?

  • CamBrutality CamBrutality (@CamBrutality) reported

    @PatrickWantsOut @Rodimus69 @_XboxNews I was xbox series x. I was also on earlier in the morning grinding on destiny 2 so....it prob helped cause I was already signed in before the issues happened. Though I couldn't load up GTA5 on Series X even though I bought it.

  • Eddie31606418 Eddie (@Eddie31606418) reported

    @FortniteGame @Xbox Praying for the company(Epic games) hope you guys find a solution to the Middle East network issue..#alreadymissingthegamesomuch

  • PeterOvo5 PeterOvo (@PeterOvo5) reported

    @BigCJohnsun @Perez204Rodrigo @OhNoItsAlexx That's not an Xbox problem, that's a game publisher problem. You can't blame Xbox if the developer requires a day one patch to make the game playable.

  • oProtory Protory (@oProtory) reported

    @EAHelp Haven’t received any coins I bought them yesterday around this time I’m on Xbox series x please dm so we can fix this

  • kacoons Kyle ***** (@kacoons) reported

    @Xbox can't get through to contact Xbox support to talk to a representative. Stuck in an endless loop where I can't sign in to setup a phone call. I would like a refund for my Xbox live.

  • Aubz_5 Aubrey (@Aubz_5) reported

    @XboxSupport still isn’t working for me. I still can’t launch games, I can launch minecraft (which dosent help). Its quite literally broken. its like its back to the first version.. for servers it says “coming soon”. Please fix this xbox.

  • Ozymandiascries Respawn sucks (@Ozymandiascries) reported

    @RSPN_Pav You know what else is bad? The fact next gen Xbox has no gamechat at the moment; how am I supposed to communicate properly with PlayStation players when they can't hear me? It's been a month & it's still broken 😮‍💨 Matchmaking is ***, SP map update did nothing to fix it.

  • CityWok7 CityWok (@CityWok7) reported

    @grayson63346241 @Xbox @Opi That's what people do when they don't have problems in their life. They create them. Say what you believe and stick to it. Don't let these grown men, who paint their nails, get you down💪

  • terrorizeikea1 terrorizeikea (@terrorizeikea1) reported

    @pariah747 @m_rizky_gumilar @VGC_News If exclusives are such a big problem for consoles to get popularity, then why is Steam such a big platform if I could just get games on my Xbox?

  • Ozymandiascries Respawn sucks (@Ozymandiascries) reported

    @IanHolstead Can we have a gamechat fix on Xbox next gen, thanks 👍

  • CodyRam28094395 Cody Ramsey (@CodyRam28094395) reported

    @Kedachu @PaladinsGame Its your internet. It used to crash for me in the switch but on xbox I have no problem. No freezing either

  • twisted_mental ✖️Toby✖️ (@twisted_mental) reported

    @TWTHEREDDRAGON More fake bullshit from you o see. When I worked in retail we had no problems moving series X or S with no problems or bundles. Ps5 only in high demand because most multiplat gamers already have their Xbox.

  • raybpanda RayB_Panda (@raybpanda) reported

    @Zuby_Tech @Guerrilla And before any sony fanboy say xbox do the same whit halo. That's a costume limit consol. This is default ps5 and problem permanent like HZD was. That's how it sold millions FOR THE RECORD I THINK ITS A GOID GAME but they boosting it

  • ianwilgaus Ian Wilgaus (@ianwilgaus) reported

    @RomeGoLARGE Go to bed mate. You think the 1% of XBOX players who have zero voice on what XBOX does are the real problem. So by your theory. It’s your fault Sony can charge 70 for a game and include MTX. YEAH?

  • ItJustScythe 🎄ItJustScythe🎄 (@ItJustScythe) reported

    @dantdmsbrain I was watching a YouTube video on my Xbox (wasn’t yours but someone else’s) and there were problems 10 ads on a 20 minute video. Idk if it was just because it was on Xbox but it was insane
