    Give it time lads, it can't be easy to get the server back up fully with hundreds of thousands of eager gamers from all around the world trying to get on to xbox live at the same time!! Im sure that it will be fixed asap. Now im off to play mass effect ;)

    I think that might be just for US & Canada.......

    EDIT: The support front page now reads as:

    Status:

    Users may experience connectivity issues and difficulties with matchmaking within games on Xbox LIVE. We are aware of the problem and working to resolve the issue.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience.

    Going through COD4 multiplayer DT's. Agggghhhh. When is it back?

    They'd better not have screwed up the servers ths close to GTA4

    Had to play the Single player on COD to calm the nerves. Although some good has come from it. Finally got 1000 in the achievement points Whooo Hooo. Mile High on Veteran is just not fair I tells ya. Will have to get therapy after that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,530 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh... thats better...
    Just had a prebreakfast run though Broadcast, and all is right with the world.
    I love the smell of dead americans in the morning. :)

    smells like [sniiiiifffff] victory (though very possibly could be the toaster) :D:D:D:D

    Or maybe someone forgot to change their socks this morning :)

    Anyhow, is there any visual change at all on LIVE, or is it, as MS said, purely in the background.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,530 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Didn't see anything different... didn't look around too much to be honest.
    I think the main changes will be in the spring update (whenever that is)

    ZING!

    I was having connection issues yesterday as well as everybody else in my friends list. Could only play private matches, and even then anything greater than 3-v-3 was lag-tastic.

    I got back on last night at about 9.30 and everything was hunky dory, so dunno why youse were all havin trouble. :confused:

    I noticed no difference after the update. I was on xbox.com there and couldn't get any info as to what it was for. I don't understand technical jargon, but even still, just to hear "oh it was for this..." would have been helpful!


  • Registered Users Posts: 223 ✭✭mob


    i still can't connect to xbox live properly :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 223 ✭✭mob


    right i don't know what's happened but eversince the updates yesterday i can't connect to xbox live it says i'm connecting, when it connects and my dashboard refreshes to the connect to xboxlive screen i've ran the network tests and everything is fine only nat is moderate

    can anyone help me please????:confused:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,486 ✭✭✭miju


    have no idea what your prob could be tbh. I was able to connect al night and play about 4 hours of COD4 without dropping / lagging once :)
