Outriders gets this error regardless of Hard reset after recent Xbox series x update...

I don't know if these server problems are related to the updates they do for the game.

I remember not long after I installed the game on my Xbox series x last year it received an update a day or 2 later and I started getting a server error message on my Xbox series x yet on my Xbox one x the game played fine without an error message.

Not really...

Xbox Series X games / upgrades / updates has to be installed onto the Series X internal or expansion card SSD,

You can have Xbox One games on your external hard drive that will get an Series X upgrade but the games will need to be transferred to the Series X and then the Series X upgrade will need to be downloaded onto the Series X SSD,

As an example...

I have Marvel Avengers on my external hard drive that will get the Series X upgrade and I will transfer the game over to the Series X SSD ready to download and update the game to the Series X version when available.

It's a server problem from their side as I get that error now and again as well.

For me, it sometimes happens on my Xbox Series X after they update the game.

Did you ever get this fixed.

My console Xbox series x is having similar issues

Games with unreal like backbone, life is strange, and outriders all have the same strange disco lighting effect happening. Matrix crashes completely

Do you have the series X or S?
I know for sure if you have, its an optimized game so it would have to be installed on the internal drive regardless. But I see you are still running into issues regardless of placement.

Only other things I could think to recommend:
- Try a hard reset of your console.
- Make sure you Console itself is updated.

Also and lastly, Do you participate in any of the preview programs?
