  1. Running out of patience


    Before I get started I want to say, yes I am aware the console is in its infancy, yes I am aware that the 360 too had humble beginnings, yes I am aware that there was bound to be bugs in the console when it first launched and finally yes I understand that
    by purchasing the console on day one I knew what I was roughly getting myself into.

    That being said I still have to wonder a few things

    Firstly, was this console even QC checked? There were so many problems with the console off launch everything from faulty disk drives to consoles that would not take the day one update which essentially meant people had bought an expensive shinny brick.

    Forza title update pretty much ruined the game Ryse title update has introduced so many glitchs into the game its nearly unplayable Ghosts recent update has removed all special edition DLC and has caused the game to perpetually start on a random mission
    near the end of the game every time instead of starting to the main menu, all these glitchs all these games. You simply can not say that these are issues with the developers, its issues with the console itself

    Secondly: Where is the support? The console has been out for nearly four months now and has only received one very minor update that really didn't do anything. We are still waiting on fixes for a venerable cornucopia of issues. No DTS sound, no external
    USB support for HDDs or otherwise a dashboard that simply does not work (am I the only one who would have loved a simple port of the 360 dashboard?) No 3D Blu-ray support No third party headset support (still)(I've heard that the headset adapter is pushed
    back to March 1st now) Which incidentally I can't fathom why Microsoft would go through the hassle of removing the 2.5mm jack form the controllers for this proprietary port on the controller just to release an adapter for existing third party headsets and
    then say that "all new headsets will also need to use the adapter" well then what the hell was the point of the new port to begin with then? Changing the wireless protocols so the Triton warheads won't work with the console

    That's not even what irritates me the most

    Its the complete unwillingness of M$ to even communicate with its consumers that pisses me off more than anything

    I don't mind waiting for these features, I really don't....all M$ need to do is say "Right, DTS sound update, external HDD support update all coming on x date, please be patient guys"

    That's literally all they have to do and I would be happier than a pig in fecal matter.

    The console is nothing as it has been marketed, Hell even the xbox on voice command isn't enabled here in Australia, but the programing is on the console as if I change my location to north America is works absolutely fine.

    There's no TV support here in aus, no digital tuner support, no surround sound support no apps there is literally less than a third of the customization features on the dashboard then the 360 had, I can't even change or even look at my bio on the xbox one,
    let alone add my own backgrounds or access the avatar marketplace or even something as basic as checking to see how my HDD space I have left or even how much battery life I have remaining.

    I get it, its a new console its going to have some growing pains, but you would have though that M$ would have learned something through the process of development of the 360 and started where the 360 left off.

    Instead the X1 is several dozen steps backwards

    Nearly everyone hates and I mean hates windows 8 as an OS, why would they have through making the XI run on an W8 derivative was a good idea?

    I hate to say this but I am really beginning to regret my purchase and am losing faith

    Even tho I know that the PS4 had its own issues at launch at least sony is addressing them rather promptly

    The PS4 has received many updates including a Bluetooth update and an OS update already

    I just can't help but start to feel that I've been duped, I bough the next generation of console that doesn't even do what my old generation console did, and does perfectly

    :)

    amulet of Mara will have a new dialogue available.

    You're preaching to the choir here!...LoL...You won't get any type of useful official response from Microsoft here...We've all been duped, for now. Hopefully, MS will turn it around and realize that they need to COMMUNICATE with their customers in order
    for the XBO to profit long term. This product was very rushed, no doubt about it...Like I've said before, love the games (when they work), like the new controller....And EVERYTHING else is a disaster...Especially their public relations approach....I especially
    appreciate when companies don't respond on their official outlets/forums, and you have to follow them on twitter or some 3rd party platform in order to get information!!!!!

  5. Hi there on your first issue as far as game updates every gamer knows that these updates can cause harm to a console as well as disrupt gameplay. I would suggest holding the power button for 5-10 seconds this will clear the system cache. Secondly there is
    a significant update coming this march to improve xbox live services patients is required. Updates just can't happen on a whim it's still as you acknowledge a new console it also takes time to put these updates together and they are 50-50 to work on some consoles
    and ruin others. If the lather happens request a repair with xbox customer support. Finally if you wish to buy a ps4 go ahead thats your right but even with sony there updates can do the same damage as what happened to you on xbox.

  6. A software update for a game should never have a "50-50 chance of ruining a console" That's absurd

    I'm not suggesting these updates should happen overnight (incidentally its been nearly four months, not what I would call over night) what I am saying is that the most basic of features that my xbox 360 and even my original xbox can do -SHOULD- be included
    on the xbox one.....

    I'm not sure how you can contend that the X1 is not a several huge step backwards in nearly every way

  7. Not everything on 360 would work on xbox one it takes time to get those programs ready for new machine with new capabilities. The update stuff yes its absurd but thats how technology works. How can contend its several steps backward why because we gotta
    learn new hardware or because we cant accept change as a good thing. Xbox one is a excellent console like others before it, it will have its short falls so what be like everyone else enjoy whats available and if you have ideas on improving xbox one post them
    here (forums.xbox.com/.../default.aspx)
