    @XboxSupport Hi are you aware of an issue with the series X were if you switch off console via the controller (elite 2) the box switches off then back on and does not recognise any peripherals even if controller is connected via USB. Has happened twice now.

  • yazzyharbin Yaz😆 (@yazzyharbin) reported

    @SimGuruNick My xbox is still crashing, If i play a new world, my stuff game crash but i can’t play any of my old worlds without it crashing. I updated my game and everything, I have restarted my console, and deleted and reinstalled sims. I did this process twice, please help

  • LaFlameAP Alex 🏌️ (@LaFlameAP) reported

    @CallofDuty i was in a FFA game and in first and about to win , and my Xbox series X shut off, this happens way too often and only on your game, fix this before any other issues

  • chelseaman1905 Lampard In (@chelseaman1905) reported

    @RonFunches I see. There was a bit of setup involved in the beginning, but I figured that was normal. I guess the Xbox is a bit more plug and play. Thankfully I haven’t had any games crash on me yet

  • xdarkxghostx Stik (@xdarkxghostx) reported

    @HOIRiIZON @bpanther666 @Xbox Dont remember saying I dont know who digital foundry is? I remember saying relying on other people is a waste of my time, when I can do it myself. But whatevs man, I just wanted to know what games he was having an issue with, sorry you got butt hurt about the whole thing

  • xAmplifyD 🧩 AmplifyD #BLM (@xAmplifyD) reported

    @DJRecklessRyan @DDeafner WELCOME TO TWITCH GAMING 101 This is ya boy AmplifyD at your service with a few questions... What gaming platform? (xbox, pc, etc.) where do you want to stream? (Twitch, YouTube, etc) and last, what kind of download and upload are you working with for internet?

  • XboxWins1 NoSkillUsed (@XboxWins1) reported

    @creedyfbaby @M4R555 @PlayStation Yes, bad silicon is the main issue for PS5 failure rates. PS5 gets 50% yields. To put that into comparison, Xbox 360 only got 68% yields. Sony has lower yields than the Xbox 360. THATS mind blowing if you think how bad the 360 RRoD was.

  • derekstacey84 Baba (@derekstacey84) reported

  • MKO_FataLKaDe FATALKADE (@MKO_FataLKaDe) reported

    @Leon13687154 @David_DSRMAW @Treyarch I have the 130gb xbox series x version. It crashes every few matches like above and it is super choppy when scoping in on enemies with textures loading inconsistently. Its a big problem and I hope they fix it, because I've lost interest in playing at this point.

  • doctorT03 Dr. T (@doctorT03) reported

    @RobertfFinch @Xbox Don’t blame them, it’s just they didn’t have time to polish up certain things before launch, mainly because of covid 19 but don’t worry in 2021 they will patch these issues out with an update

  • OhNoRobertLuke Robert Luke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (@OhNoRobertLuke) reported

    @DonFan85 My issue is when you click the bottom button to confirm and the right button to decline on PS and Xbox. This is normal. But then it’s backwards on switch.

    @dirtgame What about fixing not being able to select the sponsor tab? My game crashes every time I go through throw downs. This is on Xbox Series X and ONE X. I have both and the both crash at the same point. Please tell me you are working on it.

  • woofite AJ (@woofite) reported

    Hey ************* @Xbox @Treyarch one of you is turning my Xbox off. If it’s Cold War, this ******* game should not be able to turn my Xbox off because it freezes. If it’s Xbox, fix this ******* ****. Garbage $500 machine

  • OGWillmott Derek Willmott (@OGWillmott) reported

    @Treyarch I Love Your New Game It's Really Fun! Enjoy It! I Understand If You Have Gameplay Issues Which Is Fine But Would You Be Able To Fix A Major Problem Where Your Xbox Would Shut Off When Trying To Start It Up Or Playing Because It Has Happened To Me About 10 Times Now?

    @XboxSupport are you guys having issues with mobile app sign in? I can't sign in at all and therefore can't get into Game Pass on my phone to claim the rewards today or yesterday.
