March Xbox One system update patched for preview members; Details here

Xbox One preview program members have been getting an eyeful of the upcoming system update for the Xbox One. The update will be bringing 16-person Party Chat, customizable game DVR recording length, and more to users in the coming future, but preview members have been able to test out a majority of new features since the beginning of the month.

Last week, a patch to the system update brought even more features like the ability to do a factory reset on your Xbox One and maintain all of your games, as well as the Achievement Snap App. The most recent update did not add too many new features, but it did bring a couple of fixes.

Check out the additions and tweaks below via preview forums (courtesy of DualShock):

DETAILS

OS version released: th2_xb_rel_1603.160311-1900

Available: 6:00PM PST 3/14 (1:00AM GMT 15/3)

Fixes:

Party Chat

  • Fixed an issue which caused navigating the party menu in the Guide to not correctly update the party state.

Graphics

  • Additional fixes for graphics and DirectX.

New Feature:

Feedback Notifications

  • You’ll now periodically receive notifications asking you to rate certain experiences on Xbox One. These notifications, when acted upon, will launch a new lightweight app where you can supply a rating and optionally input text to further explain your score.
  • Too busy to give feedback when you get the notification? No problem! Just ignore the toast and you can access it under Notifications in the Guide when you’re ready. You’ll also find a new Setting for this feature under Preferences.
