I can't believe no one complained about how much of a dead one the controller seemed to have especially while playing Forza.

To the people who have the update. In the game library section on the right, is that list only for demos?

Has anyone in or around NYC received the update yet?
What does this have to do with a software update?

You need an NTFS formatted usb stick and just drop the $systemupdate folder onto that USB
power down your machine fully
unplug the power for 30 seconds
plug in USB to Xbox
hold bind+eject and press the power button
keep holding bind and eject
you'll hear a beep (not the eject button) and keep holding and you'll hear a second beep
by this point you will see green bars installing stuff on the screen. Just sit and wait
You may have a nail biting wait on a green screen, don't panic, leave it and it should be fine.

Yea just turn off (standby) your Xbox One for 4-5 minutes and it should start blinking.

Consider it passed!
You need to put it in standby (white power brick light). Leave it that way until the power brick light turns amber. That means the entire update downloaded. When that happens it powers off the console completely (which is why the power brick light changes) so that the next time you boot the update installs.

You're trolling us to nowhere with this type of post.
Man I wish I was this witty.
That worked for me last time but did nothing yet for this.
The more I play around with the One the more I like it. If the OS was a bit more like the 360 and the GPU was a bit more powerful it would be an amazing console. Either way, I'm glad Titanfall got me to unpack it. Can't wait to get the update and have it run even better.
Fun fact: my One replaced the original Xbox; I was rather sad taking it away.

Could you also ask to bring back old friend system? The new one is horrible, it's pretty much like twitter with followers and following and actually is completly separated from Xbox 360 friend list, if I add people on One they don't show up on 360 and I have to add them again.
That and achievement app are my biggest issues with Xbox One. They are just so much worse than 360 implementation and very unintuitive/hard to use.
The march update has a new style friends list.
They've had to seperate out the Xbox One and 360 friends lists because the Xbox one supports 1000s and the 360 only supports 100

As long as they get rid of twitter bullshit I am fine with that. So annoying to add people and then check if they added you. Why just not make it like old system - add someone, they see friend request and accept/decline it. You can even leave "followers" option where you can follow someone, but that's need to be separated from friend list.
I sometimes get messages asking to play from complete strangers and only then notice that they are my followers, one guy was as confused as I am, he thought since I showed up in his "friends" list, I might have accepted his friend request after the Killer Instinct match.

Still no update here, I'm in Toronto. I want to see how games look without that sharpening filter!
Edit: Got it!
Yes I agree - why can't we just have a normal friend list and the option to follow? It would be very convenient. If MS keeps updating things, though I am sure all will get rectified. A few updates in and the One is standing quite strong.

Also agree with the suggestion.
Screengrab/screenshot NEEDS to happen, sometime you just wanna take a snapshot of a game rather than a video.
Like the idea of a gaming photomap, see what you played and when.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
I just got it now, it's updating.
This is my biggest gripe with the XO. I want these things the exact same way as the 360 built in, not a separate app as it is now. The way it is currently is terrible and really unnecessary and unintuitive.

Huh. Streams freeze after a few seconds for everything but Pokemon. For me, anyway.

I live in Maryland and got it after being out for dinner.. I got back, powered it on, didn't have it, powered it off for 10 minutes, came back didn't see a light on the system but turned it on to a green scroll bar.. so far so good
Hey Albert,
Why is Zoo Tycoon showing up as installable in my games and apps? Are you guys giving me a free gift? Because I'd totally love one.
Same for me, it doesn't have a content or product id though

After about 5 cold reboots its finally updating for me (Australia)
After the update, going to Game and Apps, I have the queue section with 2 games waiting to be installed, Forza 5 and AC 4. But under my games, I already have those games installed. Any idea what's going on?
Also I have 6 games and 3 digital purchases and my hard drive is already 50% full
