    Pretty sure they've rolled it out to everyone in the preview.

    I got a message over a week ago saying they were going to if I didn't opt out and I never opted out but was still on the old dash up until last night at least.

    New build is out, th2_xbox_rel_1510.151031-1900.



    That's some amount of fixes, they must have the programmers working 25 hours a day now.

    Pretty much. Incentives to come in early and leave late for the last 2 months.

    That's what happened to me. Game chat should still work though.

    Still no sign of game patch notes?

    Anyone else notice vibration coming more from the controller triggers than the main body of the controller since a recent update.

    GTA feels much better with the vibration coming from the triggers.

    Said it before and will say it again. This major update is 8 days away and it seems all you guys are getting at the moment is bugs? With every 300mb+ patch you get something else stops working and something else is fixed. Are the rushing this? I am Xbox to the core ever since the first Xbox but from a financial point of view, Microsoft NEED this to go smoothly to push sales for Christmas.

    This update needs to go off without any hitches because you can be sure that if it is buggy in any way, it will be all over the gaming sites and twitter etc, and will be more damaging than not.

    No point in releasing it, if it is not ready. All of the changes they are bringing look really really good and I am excited for Xbox but this needs to work first time.

    Not sure about everyone else but this is rock solid for me and wayyyyyyyyyy faster than the old dash. Starting a party or checking a message isn't a pain in the arse anymore, thank god.

    The only problem I see people reporting is the party chat for some people. I'm sure they'll fix that in 1 of the many update between now and the 12th.

    Good to hear, I am really looking forward to it. Of the videos I have seen, it does look 100 times faster than the current setup.

    NXE is working really great at the moment. I had issues with the very first NXE update but they have all been resolved. Microsoft are sending out updates very quickly. I feel at the moment its really close to the launch version.

    Most of the existing bugs are fairly minor/low impact. There will be a lot of fixes checked in between now and launch and even then you can expect QFEs to drop if anything slips through. There has been a massive upscale in speed and reliability since the new dash was betad 2/3 months ago. That said, this should have been tested and polished back at the end of august, not working like mad until d-day.

    Last few updates feel a little sluggish vs earlier ones, there is a noticeable lag when in game and double tapping the guide button to bring up the side menu. It's not slow but is noticeably slower to me at least :confused:

    Yup, side menu's gone fierce slow for me, compared to what it was anyway.

    If you've missed an update, then they'll push the entire OS at you to catch you up.

    Just powered up my xbone and after the green xbox one page the screen stays black. Any ideas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,389 ✭✭✭dunworth1


    Latest update seems to have fixed the issue with plex.

    Also it seems that the patch noted that were linked have been deleted from reddit

    Hi guys been a long time since I posted or even turned on my xbone...

    I fact it has a 2gb update it is currently downloading...

    Has the update situation improved? I boxed it up because it was always doing some form of an update and I had terrible Internet.

    Is there still constant updates ?

    Updates once a month for most people. Once the new OS hits next week you can expect maybe one more update before Christmas, then the next will be when the monthy updates resume in February.
