Microsoft's senior product manager spoke about the new Home experience on Xbox consoles, and Major Nelson has shut down our hopes of seeing the 360 blades UI return...
. If you're not a fan of the current UI being tested, you might be pleased to know that there are two other versions yet to be trialled, but it sounds like only the lower portion of the screen will be changed — and we definitely won't see the blades return."No, you can't have the blades back," Hryb said."They were lovely, they were nice, but you can't have them back because they don't scale, as we say in the business, to what we want to do.
Microsoft's engineering team has been laying the foundations for this update for the last year, streamlining feedback processes for Xbox Insiders."Something a lot of Xbox fans might not know; typically, it can take us like three months to test really small features," Krislov said."Our hope is that by building this infrastructure we can test stuff, get your feedback, iterate, and come back to you with something even better.
When discussing what is shown when you scroll down on the home page, Krislov notes that"today, most customers have their default content blocks, like Store, the Community,, etc, and then they'll have maybe one or two pinned games that they really care about." Other content blocks like Clubs and Friends are used far less often, and due to most people not utilising the lower portion of the dashboard, Microsoft is looking to make better use of the space.
