  • mmaelite Mikey Buckman (@mmaelite) reported

    @PCFPeopleCanFly the game is still encountering crashes on Xbox please fix

  • XboxfanPortugal Xboxfan_portugal (@XboxfanPortugal) reported

    @Eric7227 @madzgamingpl I believe thats not their problem, they don t show any preference between brands and for that I respect them, but they became too big that they are now afraid of alienated one part of their fanbase. All the games they analyze now are like #Xbox is better on this #PS5 on that.

  • booko67 Richard Booker (@booko67) reported

    @jasonschreier Some never get this problem, others get it multiple times, could it be something about the way they are being used? CoD used to break my PS3 controllers but never had the problem with Xbox One.

  • dahzeeh dahzeeh (ಠ_ಠ) (@dahzeeh) reported

    @XboxSupport hey guys. Hope I can get some help. No matter how many times I format my usb 3.0 thumb drive to NTFS, I can't use it to store my screenshots on the SeriesX. I always get the same error message... That asks me to format it to NTFS. It used to work on the One X.

  • M1keSweatband Big Baby Chungus (@M1keSweatband) reported

    @XboxSupport I STILL CANT LOGIN TO XBOX LIVE!!! 3RD DAY IN A ROW @XboxSupport

  • HereraJakobe jakobe herera (@HereraJakobe) reported

    @Outriders crossplay is still not working properly. I couldn’t play with my mates from pc because I kept disconnecting but when I swapped to Xbox it was smooth sailing. Please fix this soon.

  • chili_phil Chili Phil 👽 (@chili_phil) reported

    @MayWash12979103 @BattleRoyaleCoD Exactly. The cross play with PC needs to stop, or at least have an option for us XBOX and PS players to play togther. It really is that simple. The problem stays with PC but least the console players no longer suffer

  • McVicken uǝʞɔıΛ⚡ɔW (@McVicken) reported

    @Outriders My game hard crashes a couple of times per evening, mainly when there's a lot going in terms of enemies and skills. But it sometimes happens when just browsing my inventory. Platform: XBox One X with an external SSD. Hope you can fix that.

  • CurtisC74145790 Curtis Cole (@CurtisC74145790) reported

    @XboxSupport I bought a brand new Xbox Series X and the right trigger on the controller sticks. I’ve been playing it less than a week. Superior graphics mean nothing if you crash into walls because you cant let off the gas. #XboxSeriesX

  • BrandonOConneII Brandon O'Connell (@BrandonOConneII) reported

    @Xbox @XboxSupport Why is my and countless others’ Xbox Series X not able to hold a steady wireless connection? Where’s the comment or fix on this? It’s not our internet — I just had the Xbox One X for over a year on the same internet with no issues this bad. $500+ for a next-

  • Mat86166291 Mat (@Mat86166291) reported

    @Gxlf_Wang @Outriders Did u do the cache clear process? It seems to fix it for me on Xbox fat, it must work for you too

  • MultiSuperGP MultiSuper GamerPerson (@MultiSuperGP) reported

    @lionheart20XX @ModernVintageG Flawless. Those slow down issues that were present in the OG Xbox are gone when playing from Xbox One or Series consoles.

  • RubenBeebe Ruben Beebe (@RubenBeebe) reported

    @Harry_Sachz @Sir_Vamped I guess what bothered me was his weird stalking habits, having an obsessive hatred towards anything xbox related, and fake caring about the whole situation on the PS4's CMOS battery issue. What ticked me off was "Just get a PS5" like that honestly wasn't the point.

  • STAGEBLOQ STAGEBLOQ (@STAGEBLOQ) reported

    @robertswjake @FailedPyro Xbox has to go all out with this. The traditional method didn’t work for them and they were arrogant to think they could ever outsell the PS2 just because they tied the PS3 once when PS stepped on their own toes. It’s an impressive service but ms is absorbing costs.

  • Repo_TheLegend Manuel hernandez (@Repo_TheLegend) reported

    @InfinityWard When are yall gonna fix this dumb *** bug for modern warfare? Xbox cant play certain maps and playstation has to wait for the shits to copy download

  • no_name_user_2 Playbox (@no_name_user_2) reported

    @Outriders Thanks for work! But disconnect from server every 5 min on Xbox...

  • Bossytulip BossyTulip (@Bossytulip) reported

    @Outriders @Xbox I'm on xbox. Still takes me 8 or more times to sign in and that's a crap shoot. Sometimes I can't join my friends or they can't join me. Someone always gets kicked out of the game, rejoin in different areas that break the game or their abilities don't work.

  • Ahmadmelhem01 Ahmad Melhem🇵🇸🇯🇴 (@Ahmadmelhem01) reported

    @XboxSupport How about to fix auto login, 8 have noticed last update keep my Xbox asking to choose profile, note I have only one profile and set to automatically login, wither I switch or wakeup xbox it does that

  • brasnsox Jeff Brasok (@brasnsox) reported

    @PGATOUR2K @Xbox @PlayStation Please fix where ***** get dropped when in hazard or OB. And get rid of ties and give us a playoff please.

  • ViPa_Soft ViPaSoft (@ViPa_Soft) reported

    @Outriders Don't know if it's related to anything you've done, but my mini-map has started to glitch when I move and not rotate smoothly as it did yesterday. Hard to spot rushers when the red dot's don't rotate. On Xbox Series X

  • DennisWhiteloc2 Dennis Whitelock (@DennisWhiteloc2) reported

  • OhGod_ItsZach Zach (@OhGod_ItsZach) reported

    @Rainbow6Game R6 xbox has game breaking crashes and glitches that either crash your game. Sometimes I have to reset my game up to 6 times before it works properly. Also i play on a xbox one s.

  • deepsix0069 Deepsix0069 (@deepsix0069) reported

    @Outriders Connection issues aren't fixed if a friend joins me we both lag badly on xbox playing together and have to quit the game and reload it ,I love the game but you should have focused on server stability and nurfed things later ,but if I play solo it's fine,

  • JoeyTheBull1 Joe (@JoeyTheBull1) reported

    @RavenSoftware @Activision That's nice now can you fix the dev error on exbox please xbox players can't play certain maps

  • TheTrashPanda03 Donna Taylor (@TheTrashPanda03) reported

    @Outriders I was playing on my Xbox with my boyfriend and our friend, my connection crashed. Now every time I try and join my own game as a solo, or with anyone I get a communication server error. And all my weapons I had on and my armor is all gone. What can I do to fix..?

  • BrandonOConneII Brandon O'Connell (@BrandonOConneII) reported

    gen console later, and I can’t play a game online for more than five minutes without a lag spike resulting in a disconnection or vice versa. It currently can’t connect to to Xbox Live for over a minute

  • Dravencore210 dravencore210🆖️(commissions opened) (@Dravencore210) reported

    @LoogiLoogi Honestly thats the problem with this game as well too much delay. Theres times where i know i hit a note and it doesn't count. This game on xbox does that as well

  • MiltownBucky William®️🧐 (@MiltownBucky) reported

    @Brewfan0419 I had two issues with my Xbox ownership: no Spider-Man and no MLB: The Show. I probably still want to get a PS5 at some point, but having The Show on Xbox doesn’t make it 100% necessary.

  • JaydenSherry8 Jayden Sherry (@JaydenSherry8) reported

    @Blainedrops Xbox X series. The problem is finding one. If you find me one then I will compensate.
