Give those people with a zillion friends the option to turn it off. I have twenty or so friends so sign on notifications would be appreciated

Im sure they did, but with the addition of the amount of friends you can have, itd have gotten super annoying. Plus, what happens if you have 1000 friends, and lets say 25 log in within 20 seconds? You're going to have a full minute of seeing names pop up.
Mute? Option off? Alerts smaller and to the corners? Really not that complicated of a solution lol

You would think not screwing up party chat was "not that complicated" either.
 
To be honest, I think the majority of gripes with the X1 UI are minor and will probably be ironed out in the coming months.

Just sucks as an early adopter having to be the guinea pigs for change.
 
The sign in notification for 360 became useless to me after a while. 

What was really useful were beacons.

Rather than sending messages to people on my friends list, I just look at if they've set up a beacon for said game that they're playing.

This feature is still avilable on the xb1 right?
 
Did not like beacons

Do not like seeing beacon notifications.

Hope they stay far away form xbox one.

Very frequently, in the programming world, what an end user thinks is a minor change is usually the opposite.

I dont know anything about coding an OS for a gaming console but i highly doubt any fixes in regards to the most popular/frequent complaints are "minor", simple, quick, or easy.

I do however program databases and do technology consulting and on a daily basis have to explain that concept to clients.
 
Is this update going to finally turn my xbox on when I tell it to?

don't have the quote with me, but I read on IGN earlier today that one of the elements of the February update is an "improved fluidity" to the voice command. Not sure whether this will affect what seems to be a widespread sluggishness with the "xbox on" command, but hopefully

edit: here it is

IGN Article

On February 11, you'll be asked to update your Xbox One as soon as it connects to the Internet. The update comes with many behind the scenes improvements ranging from general stability to improved fluidity of Kinect voice commands.


I mostly leave my xbox on, but I do find that if I have turnedit off I have to yell at it a bit to get it to turn on

I got Forza coming in tomorrow (hopefully).

Bout to pour one out for my 360. Had it since Nov 05.

:lol

I pretty much still use my xbox 360 every day.

Although when titanfall comes out I expect it to start collecting dust.
 
I had a lot of fun w/ the voice commands when i got it.

Now the only one i like doing is hit and miss. :lol
 
Welcome nawz :hat :hat and yeah keep the 360 if you use a lot of the little stuff :lol also pvz will be copped day one
