UPDATE: Eurogamer made an article:

Will Microsoft take action on Xbox One owner's suggestions? "I had a meeting today about much of this and I can say that things will get better," Hryb wrote on Reddit today. "I can't offer a timeline of a list of what till be addressed first, but we are aware of the issue and things will get better."

I got my Xbox One yesterday. At present my biggest problem is that the Network Settings doesn't have the option to add PPPOE info like the Xbox 360 had.

For me this is a real problem at the moment.
 
That really is a good list.

The X1 UI is a mess compared to the 360
Almost everything is worse, takes longer or is simply removed.

I hope they will listen to the feedback and release updates as fast as they can for the simpler things and not wait half a year to release a spring update
 
Kudos to Ryan McCaffery for making this, I'll be honest I wasn't even sure he was aware of some of these issues here. Almost every single one of these things I'd like to see changed. What's frustrating is the quantity which are just 360 features missing or not implemented well in the slightest...

The party/friends/achievements stuff are my biggest gripes currently. A podcast recently summed it up perfectly (forget which) "For a console that's meant to be so connected I've never felt so alone using it" - you really don't feel part of any kind of community, it's like you're turning on a non-online-connected box.
 
Hmm, liking a lot of things on this list, I hope MS pay attention.

But there IS a clock on the home screen, it's in the bottom right of the screen.
 
Any way I can contribute to the visibility of this list to Microsoft? I think it's a great list, and I'd like MS to pay attention, or at least address the issues in the Xbox One interface.
 
Should add the ability to invite a friend to a party+game from the friends list screen instead of going to the specific person's profile.

The only big issue that ive experienced is the Friends system. Apart from that i cant go back to 360, and trust me i tried last night. Missed jumping form app to app with voice command. Netflix to Ryse to Bing... then being able to resume from where i left from Netflix
 
As someone who was considering an Xbox one this is actually a surprising list. I don't remember this stuff being mentioned in reviews?
 
Thanks MCD for making the thread. Really hope they fix these issues soon and thanks to Ryan from ign for creating this.

Nat issues are huge for me.. I've posted in there so please everyone post your issues there.
 
I see the NAT issues didn't make the list. If you have had party chat and connection issues please post in there so it becomes a priority for them.

Some issues are an inconvenience, others don't let us play any multiplayer or have party chat and these are critical to the XB1 experience.
 
I see some of those can be handled just by knowing how to properly use the system and others are never going to be implemented but I would say 50% of those have a chance of being integrated, refined.

Other issues like the NAT are more important imo than the silly ui ones... (pinning for example handles a lot and many are just people unwilling the change from the old ways.

Agree though about the messaging/friends/party streamlining
 
Have we even heard from Major Nelson or Albert? Do they realize the big mistakes that were made and at least tell the people that can do something about it what gamers want?

Edit: Checking reddit he already passed the website onto someone, so that's good.
 
No scaler crushing blacks on non native 1080p games or games using their own scaling solution (Ryse)? Needs to be added asap. Along with all these other features.
 
There needs to be two more. Something like "Shadow snap" . Snap something that doesn't take up any visual screen space. Necessary for xbox music to stream something while playing a game or podcast. Speaking of that, add podcasts support into Xbox Music. :) Edit: I missed this, it's already there.

And the ability to to turn the snap into Picture-in-PIcture mode. They just have to do this. Snapping PiP tv, youtube etc would be amazing.
 
I guess i am the only one noticing that enabling party chat lowers the volume of everything outside of the 'snapped' window, including active games? It is pretty easy to test, particularly on the Home dash.

Aside from that, all of the issues I have had have been brought up.
 
Fix the sharpening effect going on with low resolution games.

Other then that, this list is really really great. Hits on a lot of the OS/UI issues. Would go a long way to making it more accessible.
 
Very good list. I like the stance that MS is taking with Xbox One seems like they are being proactive then they were with the 360.

I really like the new Xbox One but can't stand some things about the new OS on the system and I hope that MS will address these quickly.
 
make the dashboard less kinect dependent.
I mean wtf why wont the X1 automatically use my user account instead me having to reselect it everytime i start up.
 
If people can post about the NAT issues first it would be helpful so it makes that list. A lot of complaints are preferences, the NAT issue is game breaking for those of us affected.
 
Glad the below made the list, my biggest issue so far when it comes to playing games.

"Option to save Controller preference to the cloud, Southpaw, Default, Legacy etc. "
 
DLNA for video and DLNA music streaming, especially for game soundtracks, are essential. And it should be proper support, not just crappy Windows sharing.
 
Game Prices
1.Digital verison of games more expensive than their disc counterpart

Game Issues
1.Random crashes on BF4 - EA Aware

Good luck on the first one. The digital version should definitely be cheaper and definitely not MORE expensive...

I remember them using the excuse that mauals and cases cost money..yet now they are digital and still charging the same.

Really good to see them keeping a list though...I can see them working off of that. Can't believe no battery indicator?
 
I'd also like to see youtube/facebook/twitter upload integration for photos and video clips.

Overall, this is a solid list. Most of these issues don't affect me personally, but they seem to be pretty easy fixes for MS.
 
Well looks like I got my answer from MS..

"Thanks but since Dubai is a unsupported region for the Xbox One, we are not able to guarantee functionality"

So 6 months of no multiplayer for me.
