    @hey_blaise That was an Xbox bug if you tried to preinstall as far as I know. Uninstalling and reinstalling got it up and running, just a bad install from the placeholder. On PC I’ve had no problem and my specs are middling at best.

  • rfanaro1087 ….. (@rfanaro1087) reported

    Prop to @Halo @Xbox for a smooth launch don’t see games now with very little issues and no server errors this game is awesome

  • okizaertlmao Oki VSauce (@okizaertlmao) reported

    @Xbox Jeez the memories, might try and fix the old girl some time!

  • worksstation1 WorksStation1🎃 🇮🇪 (@worksstation1) reported

    @JELKK11 Xbox do backwards compatibility well though some games may work better than others. Nintendo do some backwards compatibility it just puts you in severe financial trouble and playstation unless a game is a multimillion seller they'll treat it like a used tissue

  • GamerPug12 Astro (@GamerPug12) reported

    @robi4tv It’s a fun game, but the PC version just isn’t up to an acceptable quality standard. Texture glitches, low draw distance, and extreme frame drops, along with issues that are also experienced on Xbox such as server issues make the game unplayable.

  • UnknownLogic4 UnknownLogic (@UnknownLogic4) reported

    @pedro_pparaujo @JezCorden Yep some people will start saying that Phil is lying because they don't want to admit that GP is a great service for both consumer and Xbox

  • Ree66 Rizza (@Ree66) reported

    @fattsdowondersz Ion got no problems wit humans I just like my Xbox more so I have no reason to step outside 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  • mikeyraff Michael Raffaghello (@mikeyraff) reported

    @EAHelp I'm having some problems with my account, and the chat on your website is no good. Is there a way I can speak to someone who knows what they're talking about? I don't mean to be rude but I was told that I have to lose all of my content in order to link my EA acct to Xbox.

  • SamuelChurch14 BizarreCandyChomper (@SamuelChurch14) reported

    @GrendoraBox @mr_evaporation I think the reason for Twinsanity not coming any time soon is because of emulation problems. The game was backwards compatible on Xbox 360, but it had some really awful slowdown.

  • Alex_Evans_1964 PacMac13 (@Alex_Evans_1964) reported

    @scrawnybrony @Xbox @Halo Restart your console by main power to fix it from what I e seen

  • bpnzi bonzi17 (@bpnzi) reported

  • SynthWaveGamer SynthWaveTurkey (@SynthWaveGamer) reported

    About had to tweet at @xbox and @Halo to yell at them cause I paid ten bucks for the battle pass and the points never showed up until I exited and reloaded the game. Ya'll need to fix that, asap. Thought you stole from me.

  • GreyWraith1 Jenny R (@GreyWraith1) reported

    @HarrisonBurd97 @ForzaHorizon @Xbox Yes. I select the class and type for the race. Besides the races, for the forzathon on the last part I got two awesome drift skills in the GT-R and it still didnt update. I read it's still a glitch but it's annoying.

    @RidersRepublic Thank u, appreciate it. I know my passion may come across as me being a ******* but don’t get me wrong this game is crazy fun, I’ve fully beaten the story mode got 3000+ stars I like this game but the screen tearing is just annoying and on ps5 Xbox theres no option to fix it.

  • BUSHIDO1982 oni (@BUSHIDO1982) reported

    @WhatIfYaLegs @Fallout Same on Xbox none stop lag and getting kicked every 20 minutes. It actually plays smooth on pc.

  • SanatanaMishra Sanatana Mishra (@SanatanaMishra) reported

    Huge props to the Xbox backwards compatibility team for todays update, and all the improvements they’ve made to the supported games. Legends. I’ll just be a bit sad in the corner over here that this is now confirmed as the last ever update due to licensing issues :( JSRF~~~

  • HarrisonBurd97 Harrison Burd @ Project Torment (@HarrisonBurd97) reported

    @GreyWraith1 @ForzaHorizon @Xbox I had a similar problem with the drifting until I actually had it "banked". I had gotten the skill, but then crashed so it didn't count.

  • qwertyuiop7677 qwertyuiop7677 (@qwertyuiop7677) reported

    @Xbox @Halo Xbox servers down for anyone else?

  • Zetarck1 Z (@Zetarck1) reported

    @HaloSupport @Halo Absolutly garbage performance on AMD PCs, please try to fix this because my RX 580 it runs worse than a base Xbox One and we all know that is far better
