  1. Newbie question... Left pointing arrow icon in Xbox 360 games?


    I never had an XBox 360, but when I've played 360 games on my Xbox One I keep seeing references to an icon that looks like a left facing arrow - usually in some kind of tutorial type situation, where the game will say something like "For details, press <".
    What button on the Xbox One controller would correspond to this?

    Thanks

    :)

    Thank. you for the reply. I have resolved the speaker issue (faulty headset) but after performing a soft factory reset the arrow icon is still present in game which gives my position away saying please shoot me. THOUGHTS

    That's the select button basically. It would be the button that looks like it has 2 squares on it.

    at the bottom of the window/screen there should be a + at the left end of the bar.

    if there isn't a bar with icons (+/new game, cog/options, cards, lightbulb/hints) at the bottom of the window/screen there should be a triangle/up arrow at the bottom right of the screen.

    click on the triangle/up arrow, and the + icon for New Game should show at bottom left.

    hope this helps

    Good point. If the arrow is still there in different lobbies then I’d say it’s supposed to be there.

    Arrow icon

    Hey Q775Q775! Thank you for reaching out to us. Our Ambassador above posted some great information about indicators and when they should be seen on your screen. Generally, if something is on the screen that shouldn't be there, it could be the console's
    software is displaying the incorrect icon or picture, and a simple
    hard reset and powercycle
    should resolve that issue. If the issue persists, then maybe the console's operating system may need to be reset. You can perform a

    soft factory reset
    to initiate that, but also keep all of your content still downloaded. Let us know the results!

    A speaker icon in the lobby indicates that the console is picking up sound from the headset.

    Can you create a party chat, and check the circle around your Gamerpic, when you unplug the headset and plug it in again?

    Do you get a narrow circle border around your Gamerpic with the headset removed, and is the circle wider/thicker when you plug the headset in?

    Does the circle get thicker/thinner when you talk and pause talking, or does it stay thick all the time?

    If the circle in the party stays thick all the time while your headset is connected, you might have an electrical ground problem, where the headset is humming constantly.

    If you talk (or otherwise sound is picked up by the microphone), games will indicate who is talking by having a speaker icon next to their name, or above their character.

    Usually, only your team mates will see this indicator, so the enemy team can't see your location, even if you talk to your team mates.
