Xbox One 'New Experience' Update


Recommended Posts

Not at all i have had every update this week, there has been 4 with this last 1, the previous update was only last Friday and that was about 346meg.

You must have missed one, they only download a 3GB update if you've missed an update.

Well was there 1 yesterday? As i downloaded 1 on Thursday and 1 on Friday.

The numbering system does suggest i missed 2 but as i said i download 1 on Friday at maybe 3pm GMT, so there must have been atleast 2 more if they stuck to their numbering system between then and over Saturday, which seems very strange as that is more frequent than normal and over a weekend.

But i now do agree it looks like i have missed 2, may have to put the Xbox into 'instant on' mode again.

I was playing today and forgot to check if it updated at all since the last time, i'll keep an eye out later tonight when I fire it up again. It also seems my activity feed issues are specific to the Greece location setting, be it on the console or the web. I just tested it out on the web, when you scroll down to the bottom you can change the location, I tried changing it to US, UK, Spain, and in all three cases the feed shows up correctly. Seems like achievements and game clips aren't being synchronized with the Greek Xbox Live servers or something. I only get messages and friend adding posts in the feed.

 

Yeah I only saw the freezing cut scenes once, each subsequent attempt starts me at that same place, which is right at the start of the playable game.

Thanks for trying. Let's see if my re-install has an effect. 47GB might take a few minutes to download though ;)

Did the reinstall fix your issue?

Reinstalled, and also removed my personal data for the game to make it all start over. Freezing in the opening cut scene again, then eventually gets to gameplay and crashes the console. I'm going to ping a twitter DM over to Mike Ybarra to ask if he thinks a hard console reset would help. I'd prefer not to if I can help it, don't want to have to reinstall everything.

I guess your last option is a hard reset though, failing that there maybe something wrong with your console, but it is strange it is only that game that has gone pear shaped!

Indeed. Everything else is fine. Loving Halo 5 :)

I once had 1 demo on the Xbox 360 that would never work properly, it stuttered or wouldn't load, everything else was fine, i swapped the HDD over from a friends and it played fine after that! 

Have you got an external drive? If not why not! lol they cost around £70 for 2TB and it is a no brainer and smaller than a pack of playing cards. If you do have 1 and it is not installed on that try it.

Get an external HDD, dump all the games and apps on there. This makes the process of a hard console refresh a piece of cake. Takes no time at all and no redownloading everything (with the exception of the new dash). 

I think I need to check the version of mine, if it silently updates in the night.

I never get any updates when I start up for the last couple of weeks while you guys seems to get them daily :p


Mine does this too as i have it set to, but mid last week i got one that i had to do manually for some reason.

Seems like I'm missing out of the incremental updates! Played around with dash a few weeks ago but then my Xbox was put into storage. Probably won't have the chance until it's officially out now :(

I did notice the issue with the slowness of the guide when it first starts up, like others have said it looks to be related to having an external HDD plugged in. When I first boot up it's slow, and then I get an notification to say that the HDD is now ready. After that, there's no issues. 

 

Todays update put me on 1006 which was built on the 7th, so Saturday, I think they're just pushing it out to some people faster than others and so on. If there's nothing else wrong they can find then I believe this build will be the final one everyone gets. After this it will be interesting to see what other monthly updates we get going forward, or if they slow down now that we get this big one.

I have a feeling that we won't get a December update and at best we'll see something in January.

Currently at 1006. Final should be releasing tomorrow. Anyone knows if 1006 is the final build?

Well, since tomorrow is the due date and us in the preview haven't gotten anything newer than 1006 I think it's looking like the final version. At the most we might all get something like 1007 tomorrow but I don't expect that to happen.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
    • At the moment I have my main PC and a test PC on my work desk. The test PC is also not inverted so I am not looking at the glass panel side, which is irritating.
    • I'm glad you posted this clarification of the cause of so-called Windows 11 update problems that too often appear in the article headlines.. In the future, it would be better to readers if you took your time, did the analysis before posting an article about Windows problems, which end up being a waste of time. Just saying.
    • Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
