Microsoft Talks More About Multiplayer And The Reputation System On Xbox One

by Mike Futter on Oct 14, 2013 at 12:31 PM

In a second Xbox One video released today, Microsoft talks more about multiplayer and the reputation system. You'll learn more about dedicated servers, matchmaking, how to block disruptive users, and more.

We also hear about the cloud and how it's used in Titanfall. Xbox Home Gold gets some more detail from members of the team, and the decoupling of achievements from individual games. For more on Xbox One, check out the friends list video from earlier today.

 

Our Take
The portability of profiles is one of the most interesting things to me. Being able to assign favorites and take them with me is a useful feature. I'm also excited for Home Gold, as I'm getting a little tired of getting booted off my profile when my kids want to watch Netflix. The more we learn about the Xbox One user experience, the more I'm excited to try it out for myself.
