4 Things Xbox One need to Get sorted!

27/12/2013

I am a very loyal Xbox supporter and have been for years, I'm always raving about the new Xbox One but I have to say there are one or two things that they just haven't done well and is proving to be very frustrating as the weeks and months move on.

  1. Voice Activation through Kinect: Living in New Zealand the Xbox One was released here first (by the fact that the calendar day pretty much starts with us), so you can imagine my frustration when I set the Xbox One up that I couldn't get the voice activated commands to work.  Once online it was a main topic of conversation with my friends, those in NZ all had the same problem yet our Aussie counterparts had no problems.  After about a week of investigating it turns out that NZ was not given the voice bundle, WTF!!  Why would you release a brand new console and remove one of it's key features and as of the date this was written we are still in the dark as to when this will be retified.
  2. Party Chat: Although we have no voice commands our Kinect does work for communicating via party chat and Skype.  For the love of me, I have no idea who designed the party chat interface but whoever it was, they should have been shot or at very least fired because they are idiots.  I set up a party and invite my friends into it but cannot hear them, why, because I did not "turn on party chat".  Why would I set up a party and invite a whole lot of friends and then not talk to them, why do I have to activate yet another setting?  I activate the party chat and I still can't hear anyone, why, because each member of the party having already accepted the invitation now has to go into the party chat and activate the "turn on party chat" setting.  In my mind there is a lot of unnecessary piss arsing around for nothing, Microsoft get this sorted!!
  3. Voice Messaging:  When you are in a game or in a lobby between matches, it is very convenient to send the odd voice message between players because the typing interface is useless when speed is of the essence, so why is there no voice messaging capability.  I thought this system was an upgrade on the Xbox 360 not a step backwards.  Again I have to wonder about the thinking behind the developers, are these guys / girls really gamers??
  4. In Game Recording:  This is connected to point one, one of the features that had me excited was the ability to record the last 30 seconds of a game whilst in a game by simply saying "Xbox record that".  Of course this is only available to those regions that have a Kinect voice bundle.  I dare say there may be a manual version of doing this but I haven't bothered to figure it out for the simple reason that you have to stop what you are doing.  Again Microsoft get this Kinect thing sorted!!

Using upload studio on xbox one

1/12/2013

Goes without saying that when the Xbox One was released Crazy was there on day one trying it out with Ghosts and Ryse Son of Rome. In the clip below he is trying out the in game recording function and the editing studio called UpLoad Studio.

As you will see from the quality of the footage, it records the gaming sequences very well with good levels of detail coming through.  It also gives you the ability to add your own commentary (excuse Crazy's dulcet tones!) and allows you to open the move with a range of graphical sequences, in this clip Crazy chooses "Shards".

My First Dragonfly in Black Ops 2

10/8/2013

0 Comments

 
Never one to learn anything quickly when it comes to playing multiplayer online, Crazy finally (how long has Black Ops 2 being out for??) gets his hands on a Dragon fly.  Screaming to his team mates "how do I fly this thing" , Snakey comes to the rescue and talks him through the flight controls, it was great fun albeit short lived!!

This particular game was also Crazy's best public game ever, with 41 kills, helped with the strategic placing of a sentry gun, which is in the short clip below, enjoy.

Ryse - son of Rome Behind the Scenes

I have to say, every time I see some footage and find out more about this game I am excited.  It is a little different from the normal games I play but there is something about playing the part of a Roman soldier that intrigues me and having seen how they make the game I have to say this has to b on my shopping list when Xbox One is released.

Crazy hasn't ever played this franchise but having checked out this video, the 5th edition in the franchise looks good, with a massive environment, 3 main characters rather than the traditional one of may other franchises and the hint od a massive multiplayer environment, details of which will be released in the future, in the mean time check out the trailer.

BLACK OPS II WEAPONS - HAMR

22/6/2013

0 Comments

 
Crazy is a bit of a "spray and run away" player, so it's no surprise that one of his favourite guns is the HAMR, in this footage there are some great examples of why a huge clip size comes in handy for the less accurate player.  Bonus in this game was Crazy gets to use a hunter killer drone (a rarity for him) and this one actually hits its target in a building!!
