But why xbox? If they would have blocked viber, tango, skype, whatsapp or any other communication apps we all would have understood why these are being blocked but gaming services like xbox getting blocked is out my understanding. This Pee-TA is the worst organization in my POW.

Ok, I can confirm that the Xbox live service is inaccessible on multiple ISPs in Pakistan (I've checked PTCL, WiTribe, Wateen and PERN). The service is running normally in other countries as close as UAE (my cousin has confirmed from Dubai).
PTA appears to have blocked a range of ports at PIE to counter some VPNs that had proved to be unblockable till now. That could have included ports needed for Xbox live.
That is the most likely reason Xbox can connect to the internet but not to Live service. When you test your Xbox connection, it first checks for connection to your modem (Network). Passing that, it checks for access to the internet in general (Internet). After passing that, it checks for its connection to Live which requires port 3074 among others. That is where it's getting stuck.

So what we can do is make enough noise to our respective ISPs and they will in turn sort this problem out with PTA. I see no reason that Xbox Live is being blocked by PTA on purpose so it should be restored soon. Because if IS being blocked on purpose, the folks at PTA have just lost it :)p)

We all should tweet [MENTION=24169]ptcl[/MENTION]cares and ask for its solution asap. Don't waste your time calling 1218 because those are fricking ignorants who have no knowledge other than troubleshooting which a 10 yo child can even do by himself.

Anyone knows how to contact PEE-TA regarding this issue?

Again, ports are not blocked, IP(s) are blocked, I've conveyed the details but you guys will have to wait around 2-5 days for the block to be lifted.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
