Ngaba ukuva owaziwayo "plop" ngelixa udlala umdlalo we-Xbox uthumele intliziyo yakho i-aflutter?
UMicrosoft utshintshe umdlalo ngonaphakade - ngokulungileyo okanye embi - xa uvelise impumelelo, ezininzi ngeenyanga ezidlulileyo. Njengomntu ofumene impumelelo yeepesenti ezili-100 kwimidlalo embalwa, ngokuqinisekileyo ndiyaqonda ukukhwela kwee "cheevos".
Kubantu abafuna ukukwazi ukufikelela kwi-Xbox Live okanye ukugcina umkhondo wokufezekisa kwabo apho bekhona khona, ukufika kwama-smartphones kwaye, kwinqanaba elithile, iipilisi zenze ukuba kwenzeke ukuba ungakhangeli kuphela ukuphumelela kwakho nabahlobo kodwa uhlele iprofayili yakho kunye ne-avatar yakho ekuhambeni. Ukuba ukhangele ukuba ufikelele kwi-Xbox Live in pockets okanye isandla sezandla zakho, zikho iindlela ezimbalwa zokufikelela kwi-device yakho yeselula.
Isikhangeli sakho se-smartphone
Enye indlela yokufikelela kwi-Xbox Live kwi-smartphone yakho okanye ithebhulethi ukuhamba nje kwisiphequluli sakho uze uvakashele i-Xbox Live site ngqo. Idilesi isenokutshintsha kuxhomekeke kummandla ukuze uqhubeke kwaye uyi-Google nje (kubadlali be-gamers e-United States, umzekelo, idilesi i-www.xbox.com/en-US/live/).
Xa usesayithi, ungangena ngemvume ngokuthepha kwi-icon kwindawo ephezulu yeskrini yakho echazwe ngemigca emithathu. Ndiqinisekisile ukuba le ndlela ifanayo kungakhathaliseki ukuba usebenzisa i-Safari, i-Chrome, i-app ye-Google kunye nesitratshi sesitoreji se-Samsung kwi- smartphone yayo ye- Galaxy S.
Emva kokuba ungene ngemvume, thepha loo nto yesithathu yomgca wecala eliphezulu phezulu kwakhona uze ubone umfanekiso wakho wefayile, igama kunye neGamertag. Thepha ukuba indawo jikelele kwaye uza kuvelisa iqela lezinketho eziza kukuvumela ukuba ufinyelele i-akhawunti yakho yeMicrosoft, iphrofayli, uluhlu lwabahlobo, imiyalezo kunye nokubhaliselwe. Ungakwazi ukukhupha iikhowudi kwaye utshintshe izicwangciso zakho ze-Xbox apha.
Ukuqwalasela impumelelo yakho, vele uthethe "kwiProfayili" kwaye iya kuvelisa isikrini esitsha nge-avatar yakho kunye nakwezinye iithebhu zemenu nje ngentla. Enye yezo "Impumelelo," ongayifakisha ukufikelela kuyo.
Enye ingxaki endiyenayo yokufikelela kwi-Xbox Live nge-browser iyakubonisa ngokuzenzekelayo nayo nayiphi na i-akhawunti kaMicrosoft okanye i-Hotmail onokuvula kwindawo ekhethiweyo. Ekubeni ndisebenzisa i-akhawunti yeMicrosoft eyahlukileyo nge-imeyile kunye neprofayili yami ye-Xbox Live, oku kunokuba kubi.
I-app ye-Xbox LIVE
Ukuba ungumsebenzisi we-iPhone, i- iPad okanye i- Android smartphone kwaye ukhetha ukulula ukusebenzisa i-app ukufikelela kwi-Xbox Live, ngokuqinisekileyo, kukho insiza yale nto. Incwadi endala, ndiyazi.
Nangona ndasebenzisa iiprogram ezincinane zenkampani yesithathu emva kolu suku, iMicrosoft ngoku inegosa elisemthethweni elibizwa ngokuba yi-Xbox LIVE. Landa nje ukukhuphela kwi-iOS yakho okanye kwi-Android yecandelo kwaye konke usethe.
Ikhonkco yeso sicelo ininzi kakhulu kunesayithi ehambayo. Iwindow yokuqala ikubeka kwicandelo elisezantsi, elibonisa iividiyo ezithile zeMicrosoft ezithandayo ukuba uzisebenzise. I-sneaky ehle, iMicrosoft ... Endaweni, oko ufuna ngokwenene iifestile yesibini neyesithathu, onokuyifumana ngokuswayina ngakwesobunxele kwiskrini sakho. Ngendlela, ndincoma ukuthutha kummandla omhlophe phezulu njengoko ukwenza njalo kwindawo yesikrini ngokuqhelekileyo kubangela ukuba uqalise ngephutha ividiyo (grrr!).
Iwindow yesibili yicandelo leNtlalo, elibonisa amanqaku akho epheleleyo kwimpumelelo yakho kunye ne-avatar yakho. Thepha kwi-avatar yakho kwaye iya kubiza nantoni na isilwanyana esilunayo okanye wenze imifanekiso eyahlukileyo. Ngakwesokudla se-avatar yakho yimenyu yokufumana abahlobo, imiyalezo kunye neebhononi. Ungakwazi kwakhona ukuhlela iphrofayli yakho nge icon yepensisi okanye i-avatar yakho nge icon ye shirt kwi-menu ephakathi.
Iskrini sesithathu, okwangoku, dwelisa uphumelelo ngumdlalo. Ukuba unemidlalo yeendiza edlalwa njengami, ungasebenzisa isithonjana seglasi yokukhulisa umdlalo othile.
