NXE Preview: Third (and final) wave

[Kushan]

I don't suppose you'd be kind enough to post the link for the "old" dash update for those of us who aren't keen on the NXE?

[ludeboy12]

Wow I'm really liking this dash way more than I thought I would. Big thumbs up to microsoft.

[Sikh]

Ill post it tomorrow. I saved it on my friends laptop in a notepad file.

We arent suppose to post it, so ill pm you it, but I saved it on his laptop becuase i was at his house and things liek that make me wanna open up notepad and type out everything the rep says haha. Did the same thign with his laptop drivers when we wanted xp, i noted it down so whenever i reformat his laptop(porn / torrent junkie ='s mess) i need the drivers instead of calling hp

[Kushan]

Haha, yeah, I've got friends EXACTLY like that, so I know what you mean.

Working okay (installed from leaked dash), but like others I had some random disconnections when playing games last night.

[Smigit]

I've had random dsconnections ALL day. That said, I was on the XBox site there and it had a status warning stating there could be connection issues currently.

Just curious how are you playing online with the leaked dash? If you could PM me the link as well :)

If you're talking to me, I mean I upgraded from the leaked dash to the official one.

I got selected for the beta program.

You still can't use the leaked version online.

Just got selected today, rather than make my avatar look like me I decided to another route ... classy eh?

so how do you get new clothes and stuff? do you buy them with MS points or or unlock them via your gamerscore?

I would also like to know... are limited because we are previewing?

Probably.

But you can pretty much guarantee come final extra clothes/content will be paid DLC.

Some things might be unlocked from GS, such as say a Tomb Raider/GoW/Fable tshirt.

[Pheee]

Yeah no info has been released yet, but no doubt paid DLC, as Gamerpics no one will buy now, so they will probably do clothes instead. Also I really hope they do them as rewards in games.

Still no 1920 x 1200, guide still feels pretty slow loading up but after it's smooth.

[Kushan]

Clothes will be like gamerpics now - you'll be able to buy some (obviously, MS isn't going to miss out on that boat), you'll be able to earn some and some will be given away just for free. I'd expect a lot of "Been there, done that, got the t-shirt" Achievements appearing over the next few months.

I like it, Can imagine festive packs will be available etc... for some reason i dont mind paying for fashion, even though it'll be totally virtual haha

Well it wouldn't be so bad if they didn't take away the "free stuff" option in the marketplace. Now I have to look through manually on each game. :(

[Kushan]

That option was only on the US marketplace anyway, we (UK) never had that tab =P
