When I try to play fallout 3 my game freezes at the "loading extra content" screen and then I get disconnected from live... Same for black ops 2 except its the main menu.

Yep, I was trying to just load the dash upon start up and it would not work. I also could not play games from my downloaded content.
I am on the BETA program.

MrLonelyLobo This seems to be happening quite often with Microsoft now, I'm beginning to wonder why the sudden issues with Xbox Live. My guess is that with Microsoft trying to make the best security possible for the Xbox One, they have possibly lowered the amount of attention the current Live service is getting, which is causing all these problems. That's just my guess though.

No its because of the new dashboard beta testing
