    Is there a date for backward compatibility. I know there was a few games done but when will it happen?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭shuffles03


    Managing a solid few hours this weekend. Finished off Max: Curse of Brotherhood, just about to finish Lego Marvel Heroes, going to scoop up a couple of Limbo achievements later this morning and then load up The Witcher.

    You can change it by going to settings, then Devices & accessories

    Ubisoft teasing on their Mexican FB page.

    I wouldn't mind playing Driver, loved the first 2!

    Hadn't played the xbox one in almost 2 weeks so turned it on last night and had a 256mb update. Usually updates in a few minutes but took about 45 minutes or more. Finally finished and i checked the download speed. 53mb as it is usually....

    Left the xbox on instant on last night to download some demos and woke up this morning to find only 5gb or so downloaded! I downloaded about 35gb overnight about a month ago so dunno what the story is! Internet on all other devices is fine, the internet test on the xbox comes up with no issues and online multilayer plays lag free.

    Confused....

    There was a big patch for Destiny launched yesterday evening, I wouldn't be surprised if Xbox Live was crippled as a result with all the extra traffic.

    To be honest, the only time my xbox internet speeds have slowed down are when there are big xbox updates, be it for console or games, so ya that makes sense

    Anyone else pick up the fancy pants edition of Forza 6? The game is such a huge improvement over 5!

    Quick question, does anyone have a two (XB1) consoles setup? that is two console same location

    Trying to get as much info as I can before I take the plunge, I've been 360 player for years Halo, Gears etc... mostly splitscreen Couch Co-Op Campaign stuff

    Problem is a lot of the better games are nearly all online multiplayer, I hear the next installment of Halo 5 Guardians is ditching two player.

    If anyone has any info

    Thanks

    Did you have any problems/issues setting it up?

    No issues at all. Anything in particular you were worried about and i can double- check.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,653 ✭✭✭Nolimits


    Amazon seems to be telling me that the elite controller is expected to be delivered on the 22nd of August

    Though when I go into it another way it still says no expected delivery date

    Edit: I see I left my name up there once, oh well.

    Is it how you want to be able to play with eachother? If you get the games digitally you'll be able to share them across the consoles without having to buy them twice.

    There is one thing, I have UPC Broadband 250Mbs connection coming into the house, would there be any conflict sharing the same IP or do I need to use some sort of NAT?

    Thanks

    Thats the idea, basically to play the same game on both

    That was one of my main fears having to buy the game twice, thanks for the info.

    As long as you download the game as opposed to buying the disc you'll be fine, just research how to set up game sharing when the time comes. I think you might only need one Xbox Live Gold subscription too, though I'm not 100% sure on that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,420 ✭✭✭FAILSAFE 00


    Yep, only one Xbox Live sub is needed for the consoles.
