@djodjeee_ That movie is so special to me. Seeing all these old villains and two Spider-Men from different movies again is just so awesome. Sure it fan service but it is done right. I so can’t wait to see more in Avengers Doomsday.
Huh, that explains why I can still play single player despite the outage. Nonetheless it is so good to see Xbox taking responsibility (I know, hard to believe it) for their mistakes. I hope things get improved from now on.
Earlier today, many players began experiencing issues with sign in, enumerating their game libraries and playing games. The team has worked hard throughout the day to fix the issue, and we've restored service as of 2:30 PM PDT. Nonetheless, this is an unacceptable situation, and we must do better to support you.
Over the coming weeks, you'll hear more from me about our services, our platform, and the work we're doing to make XBOX better. And that starts with some transparency about this incident.
What happened. Late last night, a licensing service that sits outside of XBOX, but which XBOX depends upon, began failing. This caused some sign-in scenarios to fail, and it caused many scenarios that require an entitlement check to also fail, such as listing out your Full Library and launching games that you own. It also affected several of our publishing and store partners who depend on those same systems which is why some of you saw issues in specific games and not others.
What we did. Our on-call teams caught the first signals overnight through automated monitoring and declared a major incident. Once we isolated the failing infrastructure, we shifted traffic onto the healthy parts of the system while the team continued to work towards a root cause. Service came back unevenly across regions which is why some of you recovered hours before others.
What's next. We're running a full post-incident review. I care less about the one-line root cause and more about the real questions: why a failure in one service was able to take down this much, why recovery took as long as it did, and what we change so a single point of failure can't ruin your night again. That means hardening the dependencies underneath sign in and game launch, improving how we detect and contain this class of failure, and being faster and clearer with you when something breaks.
Thank you for your patience, and for the reports that genuinely helped us narrow this down. We'll do better.
@OrdinaryGamers It work for me and I can still play digital games offline (though it is single player) even I disconnect to internet. Same with Starfield disc too. Though I did see Xbox status ⚠️ on my home menu. I do agree that if it comes all digital, that would suck
@djodjeee_ Yea. Have you seen the way people talk Far from Home here on twitter? I mean fine you can dislike it and believe me there are valid reasons for it too. But to call it worst Spider-Man movies when there is Amazing Spider-Man 2, which I enjoy it btw, is right there.
@siinwop@TheMFStrange Same here with Far from Home. It fine that they don’t like it (and there are valid reasons). But to call it the worst Spider-Man movie when there are the amazing Spider-Man 2 (I enjoy it lol) is right there.
@IsaacPRaccount@scottsummer5s So he didn’t against supporting the film. You have to understand that it happens long ago when things are looking hopeless. Thing changes now.
@miriam_choomie “Connor Kenway might probably be the most depressing Vengeance-type character Assassins Creed could have created”
Wouldn’t You? I mean Tbf, he did lose his mother and his village were attacked by templars led by Charles Lee.
@spinneretmj I’m not big on ai in the movies industry too but To be fair, de aging technology back then is not that great. Look at Luke from mandolorian, leia from Rogue One, Indiana Jones from DoD (not bad looking but not great), and more. So I kinda get what Andy is saying
