I really don’t even know where to start. I play currently on a series S. I started having issues when everybody else did. But for the better part of 6-8 months or so, I’ve been having voice chat issues. It’s not me playing with randoms- it’s me trying to play with my cross platform friends. The game simply won’t register I have a microphone hooked up. For a while, I would restart my game, sometimes a few times, and it would work. Frustrating, sure, but it would work nonetheless, and if it didn’t, we could find another way to make it work. Well, over the last month or so, I come home from work, load up rocket league on my Xbox, and if it doesn’t work first go around, I’ll restart the game, sometimes my console. Regardless of which one I restart, it will just… disconnect me from rocket league servers. Which, if I continue restarting, eventually it shows I’m not connected to Xbox Network. So I run a speed connection test. Typically hanging around 230Mbps, showing everything’s good. Sometimes it disconnects me from Xbox and signs me out all together. 

I know this post has been long, scatterbrained, and probably a little confusing, but bear with me. This is the end of my work week and it’s 3:30 in the morning, I just tried to load into the game to play 2’s with my friend for 2 hours, to not even be able to play one game. This is a regular occurrence.

I emailed epic and they tried to say that it was my internet connection. I replied promptly saying that it wasn’t my internet connection, I attached screenshots from this sub and replies to their posts on X of disgruntled Xbox players. The screenshot posted was their reply. 

I just want to play games with my friends and be able to communicate with them… it doesn’t seem to be too much to ask. They put all this time into making Fortnite compatible content, or the Shelby they released not long ago, they need to make the game playable for the 1/4 of the player base that’s been sitting in the dark.

Xbox is dying.
