Halo 5 Service Status

So, from someone who is smarter than me, can I get an explanation as to why Halo 5 is affected by things no other game is? Right now, Xbox Live is experiencing problems with viewing friends or opening parties, NOT GAME PLAY or Internet connectivity. So why is Halo 5 matchmaking always affected by this when no other game is?

I’m at work so can’t test, but check out this thread. It has many responses.

you can go into XBL and play other games right now? Did not know XBL outages only impacted Halo. I don’t have any other games.

uhhh… Chuck Testa?

Yeah, I was just playing GTA V because Halo 5 wasn’t working and online was running perfectly fine. Same with Netflix and Destiny.

I’d say your wrong. If halo doesn’t work online then odds are most online games won’t unless you play offline or are willing to put up with a lot of frustration from disconnects. That’s when Xbox itself is having issues. Core services are part of what connects you to any server online.

the status is fubar right now

Black Ops III is slow to connect, but matches are lag free, but who knows.
