Is that installing from the disc? If so I haven't even been prompted to do so, I just had to d/l a 9GB patch (about half an hour) and that was it.

It feels amazing. I love the weighting on the sticks compared to a regular X1 controller. I removed the smaller paddles for now and just sticking to A/B (jump/crouch) on the rear paddles. Also turned vibration down to the minimum. On my other modded controller I removed the motors, it's nice to have a little, max is too distracting though.

I bought it a lot with Halo in mind, so I have a slight problem in that two paddles would be enough so not to confuse me..but theirs a reload - Jump - Boost that would work well..maybe I can just train myself

Is the new update supposed to speed things up? I am new to this XB1 but things seem a bit slow compared to PS4.

Moving around between tiles/menus and accessing things in general.

Moving around seems fine. Installs times are pretty terrible. Overall happy with it so far though. Looking forward to the new dash.

I updated it to the latest version when I got it but it is nothing like the one in the video above.

Are you in the beta preview program if not you wont get the one like in the video until its officially released this month

I know it's still in preview but I don't feel like the new dash is that much faster. Opening up the guide has a noticeable delay, and opening apps can still take a while on occassions. I might notice it more if I went back to theold dashboard now but I was hoping for a much bigger improvement on the 'snappiness' of the new dash.

I know you can use RT on the Home screen to go straight to your pins, but there's so much wasted space on the new home screen. I really hope they continue to improve it, I much preferred the old home screen.

The guide is a welcome addition, but as I said above the slight delay in opening it makes it a slightly jarring experience.

I've got two release models, never had an issue

Same, no issues with my two release consoles.

jamesy505 · 3 Nov 2015 at 13:02

I do get the occassional freeze on the new dash, then after a minute it catches up. I usually just reset the console to resolve it.
