CoD says it's down but it's working (PS5).

[analog_future]

I blame PS Stars.

The canary in the coal mine.

 

[SHA]

And for free, but but but, there's nothing for free.

 

[Antwix]

Xbox series X is pretty useless without being able to sign in. Can't even watch Netflix, YouTube, or any other streaming apps. Not sure why they tie that to signing in.

I just tested this 2 minutes ago. I can start up and watch the Youtube app just fine on my XSX. Maybe not though if you're not the main/primary/home account. idk

edit: Unless you mean without actually signing into a console profile? Then yeah I imagine you can't.

I think you can play offline and do other stuff if your Xbox account is the home account, not entirely sure.

 

[SHA]

There's commonality between these two

Mine must still be set to my series S then because I can't make a non online sign in. looking through the options to try and change it to my home console Very annoying

Edit and I shouldn't be surprised at this but I have to sign in to check this. Will have to remember to do this later.

 

[Topher]

Good grief. Everything Xbox is crawling right now

 

[Guileless]

This is a sign for everyone to go to your local pawnshop to get a used Dreamcast and a copy of Grandia II. You'll probably also want at least one 32 oz. can of High Life. Hunker down and ride it out.

 

[AJUMP23]

I got home from work. Can't play anything.

 

[FoxMcChief]

This situational disability won't stop me

 

[LostDonkey]

Weird, I fired up FH5 when I got home about 6.30 UK and it worked fine, just tried now at 9:55 and nothing....

 

[Jaybe]

 

[Draugoth]

Possible expanation: The service providers of the majority gaming serves is having a technical issue


More likely explanation: Massive concidence

 

[Goalus]

PSN reports also spiking up at 3PM EST.

 

[mayham2199]

PSN status page shows no issues. I don't think down detector is good for this. if Xbox is down then all those other games will have people complaining as well only they don't realize it's xbox not the games. Xbox status pages shows there is issues.

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

This is why Sony being so much more friendly to offline is good. Follow doesitplay on X btw

 

[Hayabusabruh]

 

[Jaybe]

Xbox is at like 4000 reports, PSN is at 20 reports. Seems to be an Xbox issue only. Odd since they have Azure, but maybe Azure is bad.

 

[nani17]

Snoop dogg is pissed

Yea down detector has never been a good source for stuff like this IMO. You just have random people submitting reports when it can just be 20 random people across the US with ISP issues. All major services like this have a status page, much easier to just check there.

 

[Gamezone]

And how many of these games are now playable? I'm asking because there are lots of "I have Internet" people here every time something requires always online that isn't necessary.

 

[j0hnnix]

Here I'm trying to figure where my damn beta rewards are at and Xbox down.

 

[CLW]

 

[Punished Miku]

I can launch 360 games but that seems to be it.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Her eyes are… messed up

 

[GHG]

I can launch 360 games but that seems to be it.

 

[dorkimoe]

love that i cant even play BG3 ...wtf

 

[Sleepwalker]

So i've been using my series X in the bedroom as a streaming box, today because xbox live is down you can't even go into Netflix or Plex because "I need to sign in to use this app".

Fucking A.

 

[CoreyFlawless]

I agree but you always had to sign in to PSN to stream too...since PS3

? Wonder that why I use my Xbox more than ps5 when it comes to other media's stuff.

 

[CoreyFlawless]

Also, is this just some part of the world? Everything been working fine on my end

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

 

[RoboFu]

Status says there is a major outage with the sign in and I can't sign in.

Anyone else ?

 

[Kssio_Aug]

On Reddit they're saying that if you set the console to offline mode you can play your games normally (as long as they don't have an online component, obviously).

I can't try it though, cause I'm not home yet.

 

[RoboFu]

Crap I didn't see this thread :/

 

[ReyBrujo]

The graph shows outage reports which are spiking up for all these services within the last hour.

When everything is down it's because Downdetector went down!

 

[Roberts]

Oh well, at least Blu-ray app works on my XSX so I'm just watching movies tonight.

 

[Švejk]

I blame Russians.

Yep, that fixed it. Can even play GP stuff I had downloaded.

 

[FeralEcho]

I can't try it though, cause I'm not home yet.

But why would you play your game offline in 2024?

Since as so many players kept saying "lol Don't you have internet in 2024?"

Spoiler

not directed at you,just all the idiots who constantly complain about people that want offline working games.

See morons? This is why! It has nothing to do with having internet or not

 

[Guilty_AI]

rip Men_in_Boxes

 

[FoxMcChief]

I was able to remote play Elden Ring on my PS5 just fine.

 

[j0hnnix]

Damn GeForce now app to powerful for Xbox to handle.. next DF Direct video.

 

[Timberwolf25]

Couldn't connect on the First Descendant or Diablo 4, but able to play a GP title called "Have a Nice Death"

Fucking A.

The Edge browser still works. Can you access those services through the browser? (I don't subscribe to either)

PSN isn't have issues it's just Xbox.
