Is it just me, or has XBL been really funky lately? I do not recall so many outages and issues over the past 4 years. Perhaps it is mostly because the release of the XB1 and getting the synchronization complete. I don't know, but it is always something
it seems like. Or am I crazy?

 

No, you are definitely not alone.

 

Hey everyone. Im playing on my Xbox 360 and everything is still down

It's Sunday 2:29pm for me live in NZ been playing with another NZ friend. The only thing we can play without fault is COD Black Ops 2. But Xbox Live Party IS working. Good thing COD doesn't use Microsoft servers. Minecraft does and Halo too. And I'm guessing
you get signed out of Xbox Live when you start playing COD BO2 now. It was working 1 and a half hours ago me and my friend were playing Search and Destroy, and zombies and Ground War.

The weekend is the WORST time for XBL to have issues cuz that's when A LOT of peps are on. No school. No work. Hope they fix it asap.

 

Me and my other NZ friend were playing COD about 10 minutes ago but got bored of it. And now can't launch the game without getting disconnected. Xbox Live Party is working am with a friend in it right now. I'm gona watch a DVD but were still gona stay in
the Xbox Live Party. When my friend first joined I was telling him to get out of Party chat cuz I thought it wouldn't work. Game chat in Search and destroy was working well.

 

Hey smilesskybird, you have posted in one of my other threads, I am curious as to which favorite is yours? Care to join in on the convo? If not no worries.

I got on at about 2:30 it is now 8:20 and I haven't been able to play any of my games all day I called support they said that some of the servers went down I just loaded up halo 4 and same problem I keep getting disconnected unless I go to dashboard everything
works fine except my friends avatars this error will effect the one ,360 and xbox.com

 

I guess toooo many people were downloading Destiny Beta maybe why some servers went down. Everything is back up now. Was able to start playing Minecraft multiplayer with several friends about 5 hours ago. Because me and a friend were getting sick of COD
Black Ops 2 zombies, zombies, more zombies, search and destroy. Might go on my Xbox 1 for the first time today it's 8:58pm here.
