Wonder why this is happening more often with MS. I wonder if a schedule maintenance would be the right thing to do now. It doesnt happen often with MS but it sucks when its a random time during the day.

MrLonelyLobo This seems to be happening quite often with Microsoft now, I'm beginning to wonder why the sudden issues with Xbox Live. My guess is that with Microsoft trying to make the best security possible for the Xbox One, they have possibly lowered the amount of attention the current Live service is getting, which is causing all these problems. That's just my guess though.


No its because of the new dashboard beta testing


It could be due to the new servers they are installing for the Xbox One, maybe they are phasing 360 over to the new servers also.
