Xbox Live Redesign

Xbox Live Redesign

Scanners will need re-writing

Written by TrueAchievement on 17 June 09 at 07:24

Well, the day I've been dreading has finally arrived - xbox live has been re-designed.

This will mean the scanners will need a complete re-write, but it looks as though they will still work once that's been done.

I'll be doing everything I can to get them working over the next 24 hours, until that point they will be switched off.

Sorry guys, not a lot I can do about it though.

Cheers, TA

Our condolences! Glad to hear that they should still function, though. We'll try to stay as calm as possible in the meantime. wink

Sorry not good enough, you could have broke into the the Microsoft HQ, killed one of the web team, then masqueraded as him getting all the info about the redesign, then programmed the update for the sanners in advance, Simple!

That's what I would have done.

Because of your lackadaisical approach my 60GS will not be updated.

Still you'll know for next time.

It's times like this you wish Microsoft were still issuing Community Developer Licenses.

Woah! Possible major problem! I Know I am double posting here, but when I just checked Xbox.com, I can no longer view anyone else's achievements. I can see their gamerscore and their recently played games, but when I try to view any of it, it only shows me my own score in those games. If that is true for everyone, the scanners are on a perma-broke state.

Don't worry Sera, we will always be able to compare our achievements with our friends. If it requires to make silver accounts for scanners and then sniffing a PC Live connection I'll do it. We will find a way :)

Haven't tried it unlogged, but I was under the assumption that the scanners are logged in.

I thought the scanners scanned as the account holder themselves?

If you go to friends list and then hover over their gamer picture, one of the options is compare games - you can get to it from there. Just removed the compare feature from the main page I think.
