Auch der aufkeimende Sommer hält Microsoft nicht davon ab, der Firmware der Xbox One neue Features zu verpassen. Aktuell liefert man ein neues Preview-Systemupdate aus, das einige spannende neue Features bietet.
Neues gibt es nicht nur beim Streaming, das nun so eine Art „Co-Op Streaming“ erlaubt, auch kann man ab sofort einen Controller mit einem Profil verknüpfen. Wofür das gut ist? Stellt Euch eine Xbox One vor, die von mehreren Spielern abwechselnd genutzt wird. Wenn jetzt jeder seinen eigenen Controller hat, kann man sich direkt durch nutzen des Controllers automatisch anmelden lassen – also eine reine Komfortfunktion.
NEW FEATURES
- Profile: When a signed out user is selected in the Guide, the e-mail address associated with their account will now display under their profile. When the user is signed in, their account will also display under their profile on Home. This feature is enabled by default for adult accounts, and disabled for child accounts. Adult accounts can disable this feature by navigating to Settings > Account > Sign-in, security & passkey.
- Co-streaming: You can now invite a friend to combine their game broadcast with yours! Sign in with an account that has an Xbox Live Gold subscription and invite a friend to your party. Once you’ve begun broadcasting your game from the Guide, you’ll be able to select “Invite party to co-stream” from the Party tab. Co-streaming is currently available only to Alpha Insiders, so we’d suggest using the Insider forums to sync up with other Alpha Insiders to test out this feature. Learn more about co-streaming and other features new to Mixer here, and be sure to complete the “Invite to Co-Stream” Quest and Survey in the Xbox Insiders Hub to provide your feedback!
- Controller Linking: Signing into your Xbox account can now be done with a click of the Xbox button thanks to the new controller linking feature! You can now link an account to a specific controller by opening the Guide, navigating to Settings > Account > Sign-in, security & passkey and selecting the “This controller signs in…” option followed by “Link controller.” From there, test the feature out for yourself by signing out of your account and then turning your controller off and then back on. Find more detailed steps and provide your thoughts on this feature by accepting the “Link Your Controller” Quest in the Xbox Insider Hub!
FIXES
