Xbox One Launch Thread [Thread being archived 1/1/14]

Are installs mandatory or optional? Do our old avatar's carry over?

Mandatory. Current avatar only on Xbox 360.

EDIT: Do you mean the avatar picture or the avatar like this:

F*ck! Dat edit!
 
Loads times and install time seem very long on xbone. Hope this is just a pre day one thing.

Very surprising with Ms focus on fast switching and such.
 
Alright...this is my set up. I'm thinking about putting the Kinect right in front of the bottom of the television. For some reference, the TV is 73" and the bottom part is about 2.5 feet from the ground. It should work alright from this height right?

I have that same TV stand with a 70"Aquos....way bigger than the center is supposed handle.
Cant wait to get rid of it, cable management is a bitch. I need something with a back
 
Really need info on BF4 digital download
Most notably, how much will need to install before I can play, cause 33 Gigs, on a 3 Mb connection, is not going to be a very "Day One" experience for me

Anyone know what percentage it will take to play?
SP or MP first?

I want to go all digital for the long run, but I dont want to wait until Saturday afternoon to play
 
I can confirm that I have it and that I peeked at Campaign and was kind of astonished at how good the graphics were. There was this big fat layer of generational improvement in fidelity.

Have playdate arranged on Friday night with our internal BF krew for MP.


Yeah. With a K.

I've seen it too, and I was actually disappointed. I mean, it looks okay for what I expect launch titles to look like. It doesn't give me that Gears 1 feeling of "holy smokes, this is next gen". I hope some other title in the future achieves that *cough* Halo 5 *cough*.

The official Xbox one thread is around 8K post and official PS4 thread is at 12k... this with the PS4 launching a week earlier and the Xbox one isn't even released yet.

I think there's been far more controversy surrounding xbone, though, (voice commands hit or miss, no DD for headphones, no twitch app, etc.) and that's likely why.
