I wonder if the Hackers are trying to make good on

thier threat.  They claimed they would shut the

servers down.  One way I know of is a DDOS

Attack (Direct Denial of Service).  That would

account for a lot of the slowness of getting into

a game and disconnects.

I got the same thing on many games last night, is there something afoot,

It's not on XBox's end, it's on CoD's servers.  I was having this problem yesterday as were a couple of friends.  I came on here and only found one person talking about it so I went to the tech support forum and there was a thread there about the same thing started by PS3 players.  Multiple platforms, same game = Oh crap! 

Got the same all day long after every single game today. Also at one point the game froze and a thin black bar came across my screen saying -Xbox live communication servers are currently having problems- or something along those lines.

Just played a little bit more 5 hours later and same thing. Disconnect after every game.

having the same problems the last couple of days. also finding it impossible to play in parties with friends. the moment we join a match, everyone but the leader lags out and never actually joins, just stays faded on the list like its searching for them.then we get a banner saying the xbox liver server communication has been interrupted. also keep getting cut off from servers when editing movies in theatre mode :/

Same here for me and my friend too, we're both in the UK and had this constantly over the last two days.  Server timed out, game freezing and/or unable to find a game.

The Devs must know something about this

I am in the Philly area.  Also it seems like lately I have gotten into lobbies under the elite content playlist and it will take forever to make the teams, even with full lobbies, it will just sit there saying making balanced teams for like a minute or two before actually making the teams and starting the games.

Can anyone confirm if this is affecting their stats?

To help other gamers please post your area in the post. Maybe they can track it down.

I am going to play MW3 for a while and see whats up.

I am in Texas and will get back to you guys within the hour just for info.

Texas Area is perfectly fine. As far as I know no one was from UK in my lobbies. I even had time to suck at 5 games without getting disconnected once in different lobbies.

For me started this past Saturday for the Clan-Op;  same message; even disconnected myself and others in the party from xbox live completely for about 10 seconds;

AND

Also, when we were not kicked off xbox live completely, it would put us back in a party WITHOUT counting and of the Domination captures we had spent 10 minutes working on.

FRUSTRATING!
