For days now, I noticed that the marketplace simply doesn't work. I can enter it, but it's completely messed up.
1) Most images won't load. They will stay with the loading bar animation forever.
2) The category names load with their default names, not the ones you would find normally (example: Skin Packs is now offer.category.skinpacks)
3) Sometimes it just says "We're unable to connect to the Marketplace. Maybe check your internet connection? Even though my connection is just fine.

I don't know why under this and similar issues the status is being changed to "Resolved", when the issue is not actually resolved in any way. It's not a problem with the service outage, because that's how marketplace looks for many people on consoles for months now. On the off chance that it is indeed a service outage, I hope it gets fixed eventually, wishing all the luck to the team.
I didn't want to make a new issue since it would be a repeat. What's weird to me however, is how even maps I already downloaded won't load their thumbnails and content. I can create them just fine, but it would be nice to see what it is beforehand 🙂
Here's to hoping this nasty bug gets squished without too many problems on the way!
It happens many times to me
