  1. Allow players to choose old Xbox dashboards by year


    Please let us choose different dashboard styles based on the year we want. For example, the 2018 Xbox One dashboard, the 2021 version, or even the classic Xbox 360 Metro dashboard.
    Many players have strong nostalgia for the dashboard they grew up with. Giving us the option to switch to our favorite era’s dashboard (while keeping the current one as default) would make a lot of longtime fans really happy.
    The old dashboards should still be fully functional, including access to the store, games & apps, and settings.
    Would you use this feature?

    I rage quit as host!!!!

    steroids are not allowed in sports for a reason - they allow an unfair advantage. Host lag is the same scenario - Everyone in the game is on steroids but you.

    If i signed up for baseball and everyone on my team was 13 years old, i'd go into it with great spirits and ready to have fun. If I found out that all the other teams in the league are 17 years old, i would know it's unfair and would be very difficult
    to have fun knowing we would never win and probably never get on base.

    How about a Menu option to play without lag comp? Standard, Hardcore, No LC. Let the players choose!

    You are not allowed to name and shame on the forums. Report using the dashboard and avoid the player.

    Unblocking Communications.

    You might have something enabled on Privacy Settings that does not allow you to receive messages from other players. There is no unblock prompt, only sending a message is the solution.

    When on the Dashboard go to the Settings tab and click Privacy. Click on Change Settings and Customize, you can then see if Voice and Text is set to Everyone, if not then choose that option.

    cheater [Mod Edit]

    Sorry but you are not allowed to call out other players on the forums. If you believe someone to be doing something against the ToU or CoC then use the dashboard reporting tools to report them. Go to his bio and select File Complaint then follow the instructions.

    After that choose Avoid then Block to prevent him from joining your games in the future.
