Just had my XBONE delivered. So how does Live work now? Can you buy the pre paid cards or do you have to pay via card on the console now?

Live is exactly the same (and carries across both consoles) so you can still use the cheap cards you can find online. I bought one yesterday for £25 from CDKeys.com.

Excellent Davey, cheers. Do I have to redeem the cheap cards on 360 or work perfectly ok with X1?

Ok to redeem on the Xbox One.

I think you go into the store tab, into games and there is a tile there to redeem.

Hahaha, how weird, I had that exact same thing last night too, was at the main menu and it popped up saying let's play, all in weird characters.

The April preview seems very buggy.

been browsing the xbox preview forums and there is a thread about this and the dirty disc issue. loads of people have gotten the disc reading problem since the update and it's being investigated. hopefully another update will roll out soon.

If you are getting crackling you have to reboot your one via holding down the power button on the console, I haven't had it, but it's the first thing I did (reboot the console) and it's been flawless audio wise since.

Yes that will fix it for a while, it does however come back. I've taken to turning off 'Instant On' so every time I turn off it turns off completely.

Anyone else get a system update today?
I had an email about being in the preview for the next update as well and tonight I got a hard reboot that took quiet some time, haven't noticed any changes yet though,

Torch [P4] · 22 Mar 2014 at 10:59

Got the update last night played some titanfall then tried changing discs :mad:

Removed profile to fix but this better get sorted properly quick !

cu3ed · 22 Mar 2014 at 11:23

Well isn't it the preview update?

Torch [P4] · 22 Mar 2014 at 12:07

Exactly and this problem is widespread so I'm sure they are working on sorting it

cu3ed · 22 Mar 2014 at 14:23

Yea, we have signed up for it, seems we get every preview to the updates coming now, so suffer it till the final version comes along I guess.

Surely you can opt out?

You can go into the preview app and opt out.

Did anyone have issues with broadcasting on twitch? My friend and I were trying to stream a game of fifa but on my channel it notices I'm playing FIFA and the name of the broadcast but just shows me as offline. I've tried all the troubleshooting stuff, privacy settings, broadcast settings, removed Xbox from twitch, readded etc but still the same?

MikGriff · 22 Mar 2014 at 17:58

I managed it fine the other day, Had some guy who was also streaming come in and challenge me

If you're part of the beta upgrade program is it possible to request that friends are also added? If so, could some one throw me an invite? Gamer tag is Trixster1979

Any good deals at the moment? Think i'm going to be laid up in the house for a bit so was considering getting one to go with my PS4.

Broken Hope · 23 Mar 2014 at 12:08

Tesco is the cheapest using the code TDX-KH4C for 10% off.

Gets you the Titanfall bundle for £359.

Just turned mine on and got the same.

Last update was done when the xbox was off so don't understand why this one wasn't.
