Xbox Live Goes Down Again, Friend List and More Go Down

4.6

Xbox Live social services including friend list and party chat are currently suffering from connectivity issues on Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Luckily gameplay seems to be unaffected, excluding those features that require the use of the friend list.
Below you can check out the current Down Detector status, showing the spike in reports of the issue. The official Xbox One status page is at the moment unavailable as well, plagued by runtime errors.

As usual, we’ll keep you informed on the evolution of the situation, but for now, if you can’t find your Xbox Live friends, don’t worry, you’re not alone.
Update: Microsoft mentioned that they are aware of the issue, and that they’re working on it, but they have no time estimate on a solution.

Having trouble signing in? We're aware, and the proper teams are already on the case! For the latest info, check out http://t.co/99xfLMWcZW

What do we have here. See no point bashing on either console you all make me laugh - do you know what's best when one network goes down hop on the other or old gen or whatever - go out even but waste time concerning yourself over issues as small as a games network then pfffft what has the world come too? Your internet goes down every now and then oh and cars pack up too but what you gonna do? It's a game some would say but so is life!? :/
Peace point made

I dont know why everyone thinks it hackers, maybe it just went down for some other reason than a group of hackers

If this is another group of 'hackers' then I will be laughing for the next few hours.
