Microsoft, this is a bad start with the Xbox One. Here's why!

No one asked for a all-in-one media hub, and people that still had faith and continued to purchase a Xbox One are disappointed because a lot of the features are gimmicky. Microsoft, you just recently lost a huge amount of gamers and fans
alike. The main problem is the ddr3 ram causing trouble for developer's, not that you can't program a game to be in Native 1080p 60FPS, it's just difficult with ddr3 ram. What were you thinking? I hope this will be a future lesson cause if you're gonna make
crap no one asks for, then you're going to lose money and let people down which is a bad way to do business and will leave a bad impression on you're consumers for life. I could have personally massively assembled a better Machine if I had the funds, so there
is no excuse for a company like Microsoft to make a console with low specs and a high price tag.

Well Microsoft, now what? Want to get back in the game? Why not release a external ram add-on for the Xbox One which would at least give the developer's the option to output at higher resolution, thus ending the native 720P controversy which angered
so many gamers. Let's see if Microsoft as a company will even consider listening to this feedback; or is this forum just a place for gamer's to vent about how they just got burned $500?

Or you know what Microsoft, it's like Phil Spencer said "These are the cookies we baked", (which is like saying the Xbox One can't be improved with new hardware.) So why not give the consumer's what they want. Make another console that is devoted
to gaming only, you can out due the Sony PS4 specs now that it's already out and get back in the game. Call it the Xbox 720 or something similar. It's not like it's hard to build a computer or a console when you're a multi-million dollar company. You've got
plenty of funding and time, what are you waiting for?

Headset confirmed to be included with every Xbox One

here's an article back end of june of Microsoft explaining why there was no headset included

www.technobuffalo.com/.../microsoft-explains-why-no-headset-is-bundled-with-the-xbox-one





I like at the end how it throws in there that sony announced they included a headset with ps4....sorry sony but an earbud is not a headset.



I'm glad they did a 180 on this it should make a lot of people happy.

 

Any Chance of GamerTag {Game ID Names} Reservations?

[quote user="pkvas"]

Here's an idea if you want it so bad start using it now and pay the 800 points or whatever it is I've had same gamer tag for 10 years so I don't know price

[/quote]Exactly...why would anyone need to reserve a gamertag...making an xbox gamertag is free and it carries over to xbox one. If you want to change it, pay $5.

 

Have you even played the PS4? Like...seriously?

 

Why are you replying to this topic? You have nothing interesting to say. You want attention, go cry else where kid. Or are you just instantly offended because I mentioned the PS4 in the Xbox forum. I was hoping someone would reply with something relevant
or intelligent to say...

 

I am not a programmer or expert in consoles.

But could they just release a better operating system for the console.

All these useless programs and apps must slow down the performance of the machine.

I don't know about the rest of you but shouldn't a entertainment system be silent, mine isn't.

 

This is a support forum,not a discussion forum.

You would need to post this in the Xbox One discussion forum here
forums.xbox.com/.../3817.aspx

 

Thanks Daft Badger, I'll post this in the appropriate sub forum and request that this one get's deleted.

 

Not crying for attention EncryptedKnight...but as far as saying something intelligent, how about this? I was asking if you had played the PS4 yet because both consoles are having issues.

Your argument about the specs...both consoles can run 1080P, and 60fps.

I noticed you posted this on this forum around the 8th, and was saying about adding extra add on RAM...have you looked up external memory yet?

I could go on and on, but here is the point. Your an early adopter for the console. Give it time to get better. If you do want to give some feed back where it can be read, go here please

My PC has DDR3 RAM and I can play games at 1,440P at a solid 60 FPS. That's not really the issue.

I want an all in one media hub though. When MS added apps to the 360, they became so popular that people spent as much time using them as they did playing games online. I want access to Netflix, Amazon Instant Video and all the other services I like to use.
I want to a Blu-Ray, DVD and CD player. I want to be able to stream content from my PC. I would love it if the console worked as a DVR for TV, although I doubt we'll ever see that.

If you want the best graphics, just play on PC. I've got a high end gaming PC (my GPU alone cost more than an Xbox One), but I love console and PC gaming for different reasons.

 

Apparently I got the DDR3 ram mixed up with the esRAM. From what I heard it's the esRAM setup which is limiting the Xbox One's performance as well as the smaller gpu. I'm just disappointed a little bit with the hardware specs. Still have to admit there are
some great exclusive games coming out on the Xbox One, but I will never buy third party games for this console as I would rather play with higher specs. These are my overall feeling towards the Xbox One, and I feel they could have done better with this console.

TheNaught1 does have a good point but I can't see and OS update giving to many benefits unless the OS allowed you to choose what process's are running in the background which I doubt will ever happen. However, maybe a newer more efficient version of Direct
X can fully optimize the Xbox One? Just going to have to wait and find out.

 

esram is the biggest issue but this should be solved when the new development kits allow the xbox to manage the flow of data to it automatically rather than developers coding directly to it etc

The GPUs are not to different in regards to performance the X1 is a custome version designed for the xbox and the PS4 version is just an off the shelf standard PC spec version.

Alot of these fanboy arguments you see over the net just spout of sheet specs etc but never fully understand the technology.

Both systems will deliver good games and as a gamer we should just enjoy it.

Ive had every console and maybe yes I play my xbox more than the others but it doesnt stop me enjoying the whole gaming community
