Xbox One OS Update: 14 Fixes We Want To See

OXM writes: "So then - the honeymoon period is officially over. We've spent our first Christmas and New Year together, and though the relationship is still going from strength to strength, we can't help but notice one or two little things our Xbox One could do to secure our everlasting love. Obviously, we're not perfect either, but we don't have the benefit of regular downloadable updates."

The achievement app should be viewable in snap mode. Opening an achievement notification should instantly snap the app, and take you directly to that achievements details. When you're done, simply tap B, and you're back into the action.

I like that idea..

Personally my biggest beef is lack of support for local a/v media.. I run a NAS that I use for all my media and not being able to watch my movies etc is annoying.. defeats the purpose of everything on one input..

But having said that.. I'm still very happy with it..

14=1 or 2?

Anyhow.....I do agree with the pass through issue.

Bigpappy4194d ago

He does list 14, and I agree with most.

mrpsychoticstalker4194d ago

TITANFALL! all I need. Then gears, then ryse 2, then gta 5, then fable, then quantum break... etc.

Oh and not stopping a game to see an achievement.

He missed the notification when friends log on. I loved that. Also to be able to send voice messages

DarkAzureIIIX4194d ago (Edited 4194d ago )

I agree with most of the stuff but 1st M$ needs to fix the graphic driver so people can play better looking games and I'm assuming thats why watchdogs was delayed.

n4rc4194d ago

Lol... What?

Considering driveclub was delayed in the same week as a couple Ubisoft multiplats.. Sony being the cause is more likely then your scenario

It's even more likely they pulled a gta5 and saw delaying to perfect can be very profitable

DarkAzureIIIX4194d ago

I sure Driveclub was delay because of all the racing game that came out at launch. Driveclub would have been DOA if they didn't delay it. Now who ever is make it will maximizes profits when the other racers become old.

Ten Years Later - Still Going Strong: Dying Light: Retouched Update Releasing June 26

Hey Survivors! Tymon here, your favorite Dying Light Franchise Director.

It's been an absolutely wild month here at Techland! We're in the thick of what I'm calling the "Summer of Dying Light," delivering updates and big news across all three Dying Light games. Just a few weeks ago, we dropped the first gameplay for Dying Light: The Beast, revealed its release date, and kicked off pre-orders (if you haven't seen it, check out my last dev blog). I'm incredibly proud of what we're building with The Beast - it’s the culmination of more than 10 years of experience in open-world survival horror!

But here's the thing: we never forget where we came from. That's why, this week, we're not just looking forward - we're rolling out significant updates for both the original Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human. We promised to support our games for a long time, and we're committed to continuing that support, right through and beyond the launch of Dying Light: The Beast.

It’s really old now. All great MMOs decline.

Also who wants to keep paying a monthly fee every month, there are other options like Guild Wars 2 😁with no monthly fee and while not that many people overall compared to FF XIV, it did increase to about 21 mil now.

Sephiroushin7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

I prefer to pay since i do not like guild wars and it keep kids away, but FF14 decreased on quality since they started to make it "more accessible", tried throne and liberty and while it was okay it has so many issues, same for dune awakening... Its time to start making a new FF MMO

Looks like Square Enix is self-aware but still stuck in place, they see the player drop and apologize for the bugs, but nothing really changes. Shame, FFXIV used to be the gold standard

My entire free company has stopped playing. The writing has consistently gotten worse and the content is sparse and lacking; unless you are a hardcore player there's very little for you to do. They are over-catering to the people who will grind three+ times a week on a single fight for multiple months when the playerbase by large doesn't want that sort of content. Square needs to dedicate more resources to the game instead of wasting them on mobile and other live service slop.

The biggest factor for me is the way they butchered job design over the years , the casualization and over simplification really hurt a good chunk of enjoyment I used to have . Jobs lost any form of complexity and just became " press glowing button" DDR style for fighting where the gameplay loop is a about the 2 minute burst window . They removed most DoTS, timer mechanics , cast times, pets, RNG ect and all around homogenized everything . When you try and can cater to everyone ... you cater to no one .
