Xbox Series X lag and stuttering on cod

JoeMicozzi · Feb 22, 2021

Hey guys, Ive had my xbox series x since release and I really have been loving it these past months. The only thing holding it back for me right now is playing call of duty. Im getting huge lag spikes in both warzone and multiplayer. No other games I have played give me these lag spikes, only cod. I have an open nat and ingame a steady 20-30 ms latency, yet I still lag,freeze, rubber band, and stutter almost the entire match! This has never happened on my og xbox one and I would like to know why its happening on my brand new series x. I feel ive done everything that I can to fix this issue but nothing has worked. Im starting to think it could be an internal issue within my xbox. If anyone has a solution to this please let me know! Thank you.

Hello JoeMicozzi, I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

It’s possible that the local save for your game has become corrupted. If so, deleting the local save and re-syncing with the cloud might correct the problem.
First, delete the local save:
1. Press the Xbox button  to open the guide and then select My games & apps > See all > Games.
2. Highlight the game title, and then press the Menu button  on your controller.
3. Select Manage game and add-ons > Saved data.
4. Select Delete all to remove the local save of this game, then follow the prompts.
After you delete the local save, restart your Xbox:
1. Press and hold the Xbox button  in the center of your controller.
2. Select Restart console, then follow the prompts.
After you restart your Xbox, re-sync your saved games to the cloud. Your saved games are automatically stored in the cloud while you’re connected to Xbox Live.
Try playing the game again to see if re-syncing with the cloud corrected the game problem.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

I am on my second Xbox One X because of this. My Xbox One works fine with all games. If I plug in the X every game I have is stuttering and lagging.

Have you found any fixes for this yet?

Yep im on series X as well and have the exact same issues. For the first 2 months i had it there were no problems but i believe after an update a few months ago my clips began to lag/stutter. It ruins the point of recording a clip imo. Would be nice if ms would fix this.

I am having this same issue when I play Madden 18 and it is so annoying. I am past my return date, or I would take it back to the store. I hope MS has a fix for this issue.

I have been having the same problem. Got the launch day Scorpio Edition and all my internet stats are fine, 100% signal, 100mbps download, 0% packet loss. But in every multiplayer game, from COD WW2 to BF1 I severely stutter and
rubberband in game. Would really like a response from Microsoft...
