Xbox Live Service Alert Issued For Xbox 360 and Xbox One

4
Microsoft has a released an Xbox Live “service alert” for Xbox 360 and Xbox One describing a series of services currently offline.

The affected services currently listed include “accessing all game features,” video capture, joining online games, managing friends lists and “posting game performance or viewing the performance of other Xbox Live members.” A status update posted on the Xbox support page earlier today, in turn, provided more details about the specific nature of some of the problems in addition to assuring Xbox owners that Microsoft is working to resolve them.

“So you’re unable to post stats to leaderboards on your Xbox One Console, right? Well, rest assured that we are investigating the issue right now,” stated the company. “Additionally, if your Xbox 360 Console is getting stuck on a black screen when trying to launch games or apps, hang in there! We are working toward a fix for this too. Thanks for your patience during this time. We’ll provide an update for you as soon as we can.”

Outside of this update, no information has emerged as to the exact nature of the problem and whether or not there has been any progress made in fixing it.

My 360 slim has been having constant problems such as freezing every time I accept game invites, freezing when I accept party invites and also when I try to edit my avatar. I'm almost ready to leave and go to PS3 :/

MS has been having a lot of service alerts lately. No doubt they will be fixed soon, though.

Ary Love how this was put up as news. This stuff just fuels the my system is better crowd. Honestly the true reason Microsoft take their servers down is usually to improve or add to existing servers. This can sometimes cause issues but they are short and required for both systems to preform correctly.


Very true, however people always seem to find room to complain as they can not bare to be offline for a couple of hours or so.


That's the world today, nothing the minority can do .


These past few times it hasn't been for maintenance as maintenance is scheduled and made public knowledge before it happens. These were just bugs in the system, every big data company gets them, every day in fact, some bigger than others that require more time to fix. Simply shutting down a server for xbox live would not cause these problems as their system is designed to offload data to other servers when one goes down, having little to no effect on us.

People need to remember that what their doing isn't easy, even harder now that they have to make the past and present gen consoles communicate perfectly and in the same language.


Not to be a fanboy, but Microsoft has never had a screw up so big with their servers like sony did a few years ago. Microsoft will always have the best live service.
