    @SprigganL @SpawnWaveMedia True, it's Square being stupid again, just like with the Xbox ports. However, the Epic Game Store problem is just its own problem.

    @alexalziel27 @IGN Its just been doing that for many people xbox said they are trying to fix it i dont know if the ps5 has been having the same problem

  • CarterSims17 Carter Sims (@CarterSims17) reported

    Oh, and let's not consider how Joycons share the same haptic feedback and are also notorious for drifting, now, I'm aware Xbox is having similar issues, but their issues seem to be due to a bad lube, nobody has quite been able to pin down why joycons drift so much.

  • Darkheroguyver Guyver (@Darkheroguyver) reported

    @RGGStudio @Xbox Customer Service Rep (Tank Class) Used to taking abuse from the general public. Rarely fazed, even by sudden surprises! Can agro enemies, support allies, and should be the bulk of all teams!

    The funny thing is, I supposedly have this for free on XBox because I have their Ultimate Pass but last time I tried to run it, I kept getting an error, so I gave up.

  • Joe_Dusty_Steed Shooter McDust (@Joe_Dusty_Steed) reported

    @iRepCleveland Is it a console only error? I never got it on Xbox and haven’t gotten it on pc.

  • c_f0rd C∞ƒord (@c_f0rd) reported

    @OfferUpSupport you have a SERIOUS problem on your platform with rampant scammming for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox. I've private messages you all details of my situation. You have GOT to fix this problem, your app is becoming a toxic scam ring and it is ridiculous.

  • SaulRaul13 Saul Raul (@SaulRaul13) reported

    @Treyarch @DavidVonderhaar why is Cold War not launching on Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S? I’m hearing multiple reports now of the same issue on a Microsoft forum when it obviously isn’t their fault. It’s due to the recent update and now our game is unplayable. Please fix it.

  • CarrotMage111 carrotmage 111 (@CarrotMage111) reported

    @DerektorDCA @XboxSupport No I'm not just not on Twitter that much anymore it just bugs me how everyone treats Microsoft it covid 19 there doing the best they can so while they fix why not go out side and go for walks

    @ATVIAssist Hey I bought Call of duty black ops cold war for the Xbox one but I was thinking it would work for the series X and now I have the series X and it’s not working it’s not loading through is there anything I can do? Thanks

    @XboxSupport fix Cold War please!!

  • Kyshkumen Wrath Indemand on IGG. (@Kyshkumen) reported

    @MofXan Not to my knowledge. The only thing that I know of that comes close is Xbox has a platform that promotes and supports indie developers and will even add indie games to their game pass service.

    @XboxSupport @BessantBilly @XboxSupport My Xbox Series X has trouble with wired networking after cold boots. Sees the network is plugged, no IP address. I don’t have issues with any other device on my network. Unplugging for 2+ minutes tends to resolve. Known issue?
