Hi,

Do you have a current active Xbox Live Subscription? Check it here https://account.microsoft.com/services/

If your account is showing an active Live subscription, but you still can not play online, you'll need to contact Xbox Live Support directly

Id rather watch Jag stream on twitch, LOL, or play along side him. I havent heard much about "twitch", is it like Justin.tv or whatever the big stream thingy was last year?

Thanks! But yeah, justin.tv was almost all gaming so they decided to make a new domain name so that they could better discriminate the website for gaming streams. When someone streams on twtich you can watch the same stream from justin.tv.

i remember when playing video games was a "waste of time". Now we are sitting watching another person play a video game? Seems like a matter of time before I am watching someone sit there who is watching someone else play a video game. Sounds fun!

i would rather play myself or watch tv or a movie....or even stupid video clips on Youtube.

I know it's not for everyone, but watching other people play is more than just watching them play. Sometimes it is about the community aspect of it just as visiting these forums is. At least that's what I hope to make out of my stream.

The original Xbox One has no 4K capabilities, but the Xbox One S and Xbox One X can stream video and play games in 4K, but not watch movies in 4K.

i've recently upgraded from 20mb to 50mb. they even gave us a brand new shiny router and guess what...i can't play games online and i can barely stream video even on the lowest setting. it was crap before but at least i could occasionally play online and
watch videos. i thought upgrading would make things better, apparently not.

@Agent the comparison doesnt make sense. Comparing a stream of a game to a stream of a movie are completely different. If I can watch the movie for free there is no point in me going out to buy the movie on DVD/blu ray. Even though I can watch someone stream
an entire game doesnt mean I will get the full experience of it. If you get the full experience from watching game streams cool, Ill just say you dont like video games.
