Xbox One Update To Fix Useless Consoles On The Way

Gamer Living contacted Xbox One support about their console and got the skinny on an update that should be releasing sometime tonight to fix some problems people are having with their Xbox Ones.

Wow worst luanch ever?

[Mister_Dawg]

Yeah the PS4 certainly was. Thanks for the update dude. :P

[Xsilver]

how so?

[LordDhampire]

Head over to the xbox forums, you'll disagree

People are going ham, lots of broken xboxes

[ThanatosDMC]

HAHAHA! That made me laugh so early in the morning. Thanks.

@xsilver Blod, Rlod, consoles bricking, and being DOA

[Xsilver]

@true_Samurai
Blod, Rlod, consoles bricking, and being DOA and that happened to what percent again oh yeah and Sony gave people new consoles for their troubles :/ worst console launch my ass your trying too hard now.

[CGI-Quality]

I'd love to hear how you can rationally explain this one, but I'm not expecting any miracles.

@ scissor: I'd wait on Microsoft's official word before we can say if it's "worse" than the 360. I'd bet my bottom dollar that it isn't.

PS4 was record breaking, but unfortunately the guy from Neogaf was right, a lot of $500 bricks were sold yesterday.

Ok pr meltdown check!

crazy ken like firing of ceo check!
No real exclusives they any one wants on luanch day check!
mediocre games released check!
possible drm hiding in plain sight lol check!
the most trolled luanch by another manufacturer check!
competition has some what similar problems yet sells a million day one check!
the nintendo on sluaght is coming check!
I could go on but damn... I could luanch a console with pc parts and throw steam on it and do better... wtf ms.

this gen is going to be hilarious.... I told everyone from devs to gamers to wait it out, ms is the first victim of the hype train derailing. Im going to need lots of popcorn I see.

[Gr1mmyshadows]

Mine is working like a dream

[N4g_null]

Get your xbox friends to post ms is getting sluaghter here.

[SITH]

I looked at amazon, 7 pages of one star complaints... not one single amazon verified purchasers. The troll train is in full effect. One person claimed their xbox sat on a green screen during the update, that is 100% normal and only happened for the day one update. I admit it is long, but it is normal.

[LordDhampire]

No one from amazon would of got it yet, in north america at least amazon would just about start delivering now

Also go to the xbox forums and you will see legit problems, actual disk drive failures

[Nitrowolf2]

eh, it depends really. In the East Coast it's likely that many hav already gotten it, while central this is the time I usually (and got my PS4) get my stuff from Amazon.

[SITH]

Yes you are both right and wrong as Nitrowolf pointed out. And I am not at all claiming there are no legitimate claims, at all, I am stating there are no verified ownership claims being posted on amazon at the time of my initial observation and post. I fully believe people are having problems. It is impossible for people to not be having issues. These things are not perfect... awesome... but not perfect.

[robotgargoyle]

Yeah, mine won't arrive til later in the day. Here's to hoping no disc tray probs or green screens of death.

[kiz2694]

What if you cant get it on to update?

[SITH]

Then do not play it because it will follow the DRM rules set initially by Microsoft. Your console will not be bricked in the traditional sense as in permanently. You can always still update it.

[strigoi814]

100% failure rate if you dont update..lolz

[Godmars290]

Guess you've seen this then:

I feel bad for those who can't get theirs to work, it really sucks. Having said that, just like PS4, this is most likely being blown waaaay out of proportion insofar as being 'widespread'

[wanderson75]

I don't think the word widespread was used in this article. Yeah...nope. don't see it. But I do agree that the number of users playing their consoles far outweighs the ones with problems.

[cowboysfan]

I have not received mine yet from amazon but when I do I'm sure it will work just fine.
I think a lot of times the issues are from people being impatient during updates.

I had no problem with my ps4 when everyone one screaming. Just be patient and let the system update without touching anything.

[KingDadXVI]

You are right on the money. There are trolls and haters on both sides and they have been waiting patiently for their moment in the sun. Don't worry they will be back under their bridge soon enough.

[N4g_null]

You are possiblely right, you dont live in texas do you, and or work for EA in austin?
