    @Activision you guys really need to fix split screen on modern warfare multiplayer Xbox. It crashes every time second player logs in. Stop focusing on the ****** cold war.

  • Lefthandedyeti Lefthandedyeti (@Lefthandedyeti) reported

    @MechaMacGyver I haven't had any issues using an Xbox one fight stick, but getting the fight stick to work when I first got it years ago was a headache so mileage may vary.

  • FlyBotJus83 Jus Gaming (@FlyBotJus83) reported

    @Griggity I feel a certain about his opinions, on one hand he is right in Ms has a history of mismanaging Ip that goes all the wY back to the 360, BUT that is OPD REGIME Mattrick/Balmer era Xbox and Collin KNOWS this, which leads me to deeper problems on his take....

    @CoolGuyGames @PopeBear how is the new Xbox scuf controller? I’ve been an elite/elite 2 user for years now and I’m going to be on my 3rd warranty repair(thank goodness it’s still covered) for bumper issues and stick drift…I’m getting sick of it…

  • STL_Hospital HospitalGiant (@STL_Hospital) reported

    @Castro1021 @GFuelEnergy @TurtleBeach I could use a new headset for Xbox. It’s broken. 🥲. Or yeah I could use a free Gfuel. let me know if I win.

  • VanHustle Schrödinger's Hustler (@VanHustle) reported

    @Jimi_518 @Xbox Oh dear. I had assumed that Aussie internet was only worse compared to countries that werent SA. I usually have to deal with out of country servers myself but managed that flawless Forza experience where the input lag was undiscernable. Sho, good luck mate.

  • Adrein1ChatNoir Anime_Life (@Adrein1ChatNoir) reported

    @Google hello, I am having an issue with my account. 3 hours ago, I was given a notification that my account was being accessed, I thought it was my Xbox. And then when I got home. I found out that my password was changed, I can't even access the account

  • KingOfMemeing Meme Johnson (@KingOfMemeing) reported

    @Terraria_Logic @Xbox @PlayStation While I am grateful that the Journey's End update came to console, the multiplayer autosave is broken it crashes then 100% of the progress I made in my friends' game in the last hour is gone.

  • iamderodreas dreascornelias (@iamderodreas) reported

    apple is lowkey going to beat out gaming consoles simply because people can’t get new Gen consoles at retail lmao if Microsoft/ Xbox and Sony don’t fix it in 2 yrs apple will be the gaming champs they’re already beating Nintendo as people aren’t getting switches anymore

    On top of my Internet not working rn my xbox just stopped working & ALL I wanted to do was watch Yellowstone… only have it on DVD & that’s the only way I can watch it…. #poor

  • KevinNewburn MF KevFun (@KevinNewburn) reported

    @RudoReels This particular video didn't review current gen because those sales are still happening, but yeah I think Xbox is beating PS5 because of the supply problems.

  • healy_major ********** (@healy_major) reported

    @DaXboxUniverse @MzLadeeSuga The end game for Phillip Spencer is that in the future, you won't be able purchase Xbox games. The ultimate goal is that you're subscribed to a month to month service like Game Pass. Microsoft is the existential threat to the future of console gaming.

  • Queen_Pea1261 Poppy Deeks (@Queen_Pea1261) reported

    @MojangStatus I mean thats a blatant lie, it's not fixed my friends and I *still* can't access our realm, on PS4, XBOX and switch just actually pay attention to what people or saying it's not just switch that people are experiencing issues on like the update focuses on :/

  • Tiqsx_ Roachie (@Tiqsx_) reported

    @Terraria_Logic @Xbox @PlayStation So the only fix I have is just play on an account that hasn’t played terraria before and use that until this gets fixed

    @shadow_griever @SpartanLustin The day I will go against Sony is the day they pull an HBO Max when they launch their games simultaneously (physical and a subscription service) on the same day at launch Kinda like what Xbox is doing with Game Pass

  • Guerilla9one Guerilla Nine One (@Guerilla9one) reported

    @BrokenDystopia @InsurgencyGame @XboxSupport Actually considering that something like this has been getting to be more common of an issue with game purchases especially on Xbox platform it needs to stop people look forward to the content that come with their purchase at launch only to be let down and beg for a fix in place

  • Da81472 Austin Arnold (@Da81472) reported

    @loki_isp My main account has the sync issue. I had 6 characters, 2 before 1.3, 4 after. I had 9 worlds, 3 before and 6 after. All my accounts with no save data work fine. All my saves before 1.3 were on the cloud. I have a xbox one x. I hope this helps in some way.

  • ElTunaGarcia Tuna in Hamilton City (@ElTunaGarcia) reported

    @XboxSupport I’ve been trying to get ahold of support and no one gets back to me. I keep having issues with my Xbox Series X and it keeps turning off while playing Madden 22.

  • GarrettEAtkins Garrett Atkins (@GarrettEAtkins) reported

    I don’t doubt PlayStation will release there own service like this in the future, and if it ends up being a consumer friendly service, that’d be great. Especially since that’ll force Xbox to make their service even better.

  • ruthenicbox Ruthenicbox (@ruthenicbox) reported

    @Terraria_Logic @Xbox @PlayStation I know you're having a lot of problems with this update, but can you please add an option to use the old Control binding I'm having a lot of problems trying to use the newer control bindings

  • linuxninja_aza CafeIT (@linuxninja_aza) reported

    @kenzer161 I host a server that has 3 Xbox and 1 Nintendo Switch player, plus 2 PC players so yeah. Cross play is a big deal. Also being able to login on my android tablet to check up on things is a massive plus. Also I simply prefer the game engine, it's just way smoother than Java.
