Incoming Xbox One updates shaped by fan feedback, says Hryb
Microsoft is listening keenly to gamer feedback on Xbox One, which will help it deliver updates to make it "the Xbox fans are expecting".
So said Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb in a discussion over the firm's extensive plans to update the console following its launch in November 2013.
"If you look back at the Xbox 360′s launch, what it was in 2005 when it launched is completely different from what it is now," Hryb told Canada.com. It's fascinating to see the different things that have come along. Things iterated," he pointed out.
"So we are absolutely committed to adding new features to the Xbox One over the course of its life span."
Microsoft is listening to feedback "daily", Hryb went on to say, and is using this this information to shape its development of the console.
"When we look back and look at what we've done, we want to continue to adapt the system to what gamers want. The team that works on Xbox are gamers themselves. We want to build the system that we use and that we know gamers would enjoy using," said Hryb.
"We're going to continue to refine the system and make it what the Xbox fans are expecting and what they want. We're listening to the feedback every single day. I've already seen some changes in the operating system internally with what we're building."
The firm has already released updates for the console, with a recent one said to have tackled issues with multiplayer, SmartGlass, notifications, dashboard performance, and wireless networking.
Microsoft Studios corporate vice president Phil Spencer revealed recently that, as late as mid-2013, the company had considered removing the Xbox One disc tray and making its new system avoid physical media entirely, but decided against such a move due to "bandwidth and game size" issues.

Well this is pretty cool.. It's always good for a company to listen to fan feedback, while it only works to an extent hopefully Microsoft can make this work

I think one of the next updates coming in is going to add back a lot of the people loved from the 360, like guide and storage, but that's what I would guess. It probably takes a while to design and implement all the features they're adding

Gossip Good so that mean they'll be adding more GB Storage and fix these ridiculous parties.
They cant just add more storage, the HDD is a certain size and the OS takes up a certain amount of space. But hopefully the party system will be fixed, I don't know what they were thinking with that.
