Xbox users may encounter several errors when attempting to play games on Xbox One or Xbox 360. Xbox isn't functioning properly for many users, according to complaints from gamers on social media websites.
Many users are reporting that there is a persistent issue where they are having difficulty in signing into Microsoft's online gaming service. If they do manage to get logged in, Xbox live typically disconnects shortly after which is a worry. Other people are having trouble with parties where they can't invite friends to join them for multiplayer sessions.
Microsoft has apparently not updated the Xbox live status page to reflect this outage, but the company's social media presence on Twitter confirmed that it has started working on a fix. This doesn't suppose to be quite a major issue and its likely that people will have no problem getting online. But it has affected enough people that Microsoft has acknowledged the mistake.
As for Xbox Live, this is a rare outage for them in 2017. The service has not experienced any real downtime from the holidays upto the first two months of this year. This is compared to Sony PlayStation network, which already had five outages since the turn of this year.
Regardless of these issues, millions of people pay for access to premium online features from Microsoft, but any disruption in service is very inconvenient. The company has begun it's Xbox advertisements as the fastest, most reliable gaming network. Those claims have largely panned out as true, especially in light of Microsoft's recent efforts to increase download speeds for games from the Xbox store. But, again, almost any network-wide error will cause headaches for paying customers, and that is something Microsoft will have to address as immediately as they can.
