Signing In to Profile?

Hello All,

I have noticed that, when COD: Advanced Warfare is the first game I am play after turning on the Xbox One, it asks me to sign in to a Profile (even though I am already signed in to an Xbox One profile even before I start up the game); otherwise, it states,
progress is not saved.

The game offers to sign me in to a profile, I pick my profile (the one I already signed in to on Xbox One), it signs in, and everything is fine. But, I am curious: is this normal?

Thanks!

:)

Ah, finally! Got it to work after much time-wasting. I guess the new dashboard ain't all that bad. I've been reading a lot of people complaining about too many advertisements, but honestly, there were just as many (if not more) ads in the last dashboard,
and those were actually even bigger & took up more space.

Other than the drastic cosmetic changes though, I don't really see what's the big deal. The Cloud is useless to me. I tend to shy away from social networks. Honestly, the only new thing I did enjoy was the new Bing feature. I got a good laugh out of being able
to search Bing for naked lady parts on album covers, found a few too. I just couldn't believe that a family-oriented company like Xbox would allow such awesomely filthy trash like that to pervade their service!

I can certainly say that I've met my 'full frontal nudity' quota for the day.

Seriously, how long does it take to sign a fella in to this "new & improved" dashboard? My gamertag has been "signing in" to the new Xbox dashboard for the last hour or so with absolutely no success. Every time I shut the system off, restart it, & try to
connect to Xbox Live, it takes me through that whole BS updating spiel all over again, only to come back full circle to the "signing in" phase, at this rate I'll never actually get to experience the new update. I essentially have a broken Xbox for the time
being.

Suffice to say, much like these truly horrid forums, my first impression of the new dashboard hasn't exactly been the most flattering. Seems like the new dashboard & this cursed website both run at the speed of smell, literally the most glacial pace of any
processes I've ever encountered.

What gives? I never had any trouble with the NXE, but the NNXE, just like the new forums, has been complete incompetent garbage for me thus far.

Perhaps I should just go away & come back to play another day.
