    The US Xbox server is offline unexpectedly. We are restarting the world and expect to have it back online in about an hour. Thank you for your patience. Any updates will be posted to this thread.

    Update: An issue with the volume of players logging back in after the earlier downtime caused the world to become unstable. We are restarting the world and now expect to be back online in about an hour, by 7PM PT. We will allow players back into the world more gradually right after the restart to prevent this from happening again.

    Update: All worlds are now online.

    I actually paid for a month membership and having such a hard time actually playing. I hope you get your **** together or I doubt I'll continue to play.

    Is there a way us membership holders can receive some form of compensation, because me and a group of my friends who are membership holders were talking about it because they were saying that we help out in funding the servers by buying the Legendary membership.

    guys, relax. you have to think. This game blew up on Xbox one tons more than it did on PC and PS4. XBone has had about triple the amount of players they expected and getting the gear and everything to upgrade takes time.

    i payed for membership too, but what do you expect. this happens to all games on release. this stuff is bound to happen specially on a game thats always online. at least this way they see that the xbox players are serious about the game

    Well I really hope they figure it out because I actually think the game is really rad. I only wish I could play it.

    LOL...an hour wait is nothing, be thankful its not 6 - 8 hour or even days. Things like this are bound to happen so soon into launch. As a paying member myself I am just happy that there is someone there to work on the issue in the 'off hours' of the day and that we can expect to be back on in such a short time.
    TY for the hard work and the update Mepps

    well, if you don't play...that frees up one more slot for us. :). But if you continue to play...whether membership or not, cool beans. :)

    At least the crash got me out of the alert group with the horrible controller I had. Lol.

    I really like the game. It's just frustrating because literally every time I've attempted to play it the servers are down.

    Although I'm sad the server went down, I am quite pleased with how fast we were informed. I have seen many game forums that go quite a long time with out giving any info, if at all. Thank you!

    the game has only been out a few days. Things like this happen, especially on new games. You want to see a total cluster f***? Who here has played Defiance? lol!
