[Xbox one S] Unpacking & Booting

Best Black Friday Xbox deals available now: $149 Xbox One S bundle, game offers and more


And then to stick out of the water, first on product standards according to town posted:




Foreword
As a Anil stand-alone game player, I have been on the PC platform all year round, but I have always had a fascination for the console from the bottom of my heart. I feel that it is the right place for the stand-alone game. I sit on the sofa and hold the handle to The ups and downs of the TV is the correct game posture. Friends in the post-80s generation probably have happy memories of sitting on the ground with their little friends and double-tasting overlords. The memories of childhood are always so deep. No matter how time and society wear out, I always feel like I want to get back, so it ’s hard to say now Part of the game console is for the entertainment of the moment, and for the feeling of the year. Of course, today ’s PC can also let you sit on the sofa, watch the TV with a handle, or even play the same game, but it ’s called a game console based on it, and it feels different to me, probably because the computer thing still brings some Working color. As for why the Xbox is not the PS, it is because the latter has an ugly handle. Sony Dafa is good. In fact, it is a jump that sounds relatively familiar.

Before I started to get something, I kind of like looking for something out of the box, hands-on experience, and so on. Now it ’s my turn to own it, and I will also contribute to the latecomers. In the following, I may call the Xbox xb, the Xbox One will be x1, the Xbox One S will be x1s. In addition to the narrative, I have practiced it and heard it. There is no guarantee of the authenticity of the latter. Please judge for yourself.

Closer to home, I bought the European version of a treasure JS at the end of last month (June) with a capacity of 1T, and selected 4 games, "Great Revolution, War Machine 1, Horizon 1, Rare 30-in-1 Mini Games Collection", 21XX Ocean, buy I knew that the package had been unpacked before. The reason was to pass the level. I do n’t believe it. One reason I guessed was to deduct the bundled games and 14-day gold members in the original package and buy them separately. The conscience of the industry, I am afraid of unpacking and disassembling, changing parts or something, and even directly refurbishing this one is bad, there is no way, who wo n’t let me buy the National Bank and do n’t want Haitao / purchasing for ten days Half a month, and this price is really tempting, anyway, there is nothing strange to play every day for half a month, I hope to keep it. A reminder: the ones that advertise a few yards are unpacked, and the original is not sold at all. If you really care about this, it is best to ask before you start. In other words, my unpacking is a second unpacking.

Out of the box

It can be seen from the packaging that this machine is actually a bundled version of War Geek 4, but it is gone, the boss of Wang 8 Egg, you will return my sweat and sweat game ~

Make no secret of having been opened. If it is not already known before buying, but only after unpacking, I think I ca n’t accept it, so I must return it.


Inside the side box, from left to right are the power cord (two-pin, plug directly), the handle, and the HDMI cable.


There is a flat box on the bottom of the host


There should have been a redemption card for the members of the base 4 and 14 days gold, there may be other, now there is only one manual left


However, for these games, Horizon 1 (boxed disk, which is a backward compatible 360 ​​game), Great Revolution (redeem card), RareReplay 30-in-1 mini-game (scatter disk, 9 of which are backward compatible, 21 One is a remake of x1), Keila 1 Ultimate Edition (scattered disk, originally a 360 period game, this is for x1 remake)

The host really looks. The black bar at the bottom left is a sticker, above which is a warning not to move the host or the like while reading the disk, it can be torn off

The handle looks good. Since I have seen the experience of high imitation, this visual inspection is authentic. In fact, it is the workmanship of the shell mold, the uniformity of the gap, the feel of the keys, especially the LT / RT, and the impact of the high imitation press has an impact sound. In addition, the gaps are also wide and narrow, and the streamline between the two pieces is not perfect. Don't underestimate these details. See the real chapter for details. Good details represent excellent materials and processing techniques. Fake goods can never imitate details. It is not because the technology is not seen as flat, but he cannot invest the cost, otherwise, The meaning of fraud is gone.


This is a standard micro USB interface. You can directly use a cable to connect to the host. The host is a standard rectangular port. After wiring, the handle can be used without a battery and wireless code pairing and becomes a pure wired handle. If you put a rechargeable battery in the handle, the cable can charge the battery and charge while playing. I added extra money and bought an original cable with the store. I plugged it in. I hate wireless. The cable feels reliable, stable, and practical.


Compared with the original version, the handle of the S version has a 3.5mm headphone jack, so you don't have to buy a special headset with Microsoft, which is very intimate. However, matching the headset is also beneficial. It has an operation panel. The rear panel plugged into the handle fits the height of the handle. It looks like one. The panel has buttons for +/- volume, microphone on and off, etc., which is very convenient. In addition, the S version of the handle adds Bluetooth functionality, which means that you can directly connect to devices such as notebooks that already have a Bluetooth adapter, without having to buy a wireless receiver separately.


Boot
Sorry, the startup image is not available in every screen/step, it is just a representative screen. Also mobile phone slag quality, sorry, in fact, my TV works very well
The first time you turn on the machine, you first need to press A on the handle. It should be to ensure that the communication between the handle and the host is normal. In addition, the length of the original line is more than two meters


Then I should choose the language. I did n’t shoot. I chose the default English. I want to keep the E-text in these important links to avoid problems with the moth. Maybe there are more problems in work. It is a habit and can be avoided. Avoid all. Then come to this step to check the network. x1s can't set PPPoE or anything, it can only rely on the superior device to supply the external network, so make sure the router can access the Internet and turn on DHCP.


It's time to update. If it is a recently shipped batch, this step may not be used, but if the batch is not new enough and there is no change, it should be changed by the store.


The update starts with 1G points and the speed is not bad. The picture is the appearance of the original Xbox One. I believe this is a unified built-in resource of the system and does not dynamically retrieve the picture according to the real model.


First experience
I have only been playing for half a month, and I still have only one experience. I have bought digital versions of games in different services. I have n’t bought CDs and digital shared versions, so what I can share is very limited. I think it is mainly an introduction for those who want to start x1s or those who have just entered the pit. If old drivers passing by finding something wrong, they are welcome to be right.

Let's talk about some basic knowledge first. There are two types of game distribution for x1, CD and digital version. The former works by first placing the disk to install the game on the console, and then every time you run this game you need to place the disk. In other words, the disk is gone, and the game cannot be played, even if the game is still on the console; the digital version is Is logged into the Xbox market with an account. After purchasing a game, the game is accounted for under the account ’s name. After logging in to a host with the account, you can see + download and install + play on the host. If the account is logged in to another A host, then the new host can also perform the above operations, but the host that has been logged in before, the account may be kicked offline, that is, the number of hosts that can be logged in to an account at the same time is limited, it is said that one This is easy to understand. Similar to Thunder members, you can only log in to one client at the same time. You ca n’t play games under this account without logging in to the host with that account. However, there is also a home mechanism that allows you to play games without logging in to an account. This is also the operation method of so-called digital sharing games on the Internet. One, since I have no experience in this area, I don't go far. A brief summary is a game installed on the CD. The game is linked to the disk, and anyone can play it. The digital version of the game is linked to the account that purchased it. You can play.

About overhead
So far, the known information is that x1 has not been cracked. Whether it is a CD or a digital version, the source of the game is genuine. Of course, this refers to the technical concept rather than the law. Specifically, every game disk you get is It was made by the official (not MS or game publishers in particular), not by anyone who burned or copied it; for the digital version, it must be obtained by an account from the Xbox market, regardless of the method of purchase or exchange The code is still free. This game always belongs to the account and cannot be transferred. In short, it is impossible to create a game copy out of thin air. All copies come from regular channels. Based on this reality, it means that every time you obtain a game, you basically have to pay a certain price, whether you buy it directly from MS or from the hands of others because Shangjia also paid a price.

The PS4 next door has not been cracked, and there are no signs of optimism. These years have passed. With so many superb software and hardware cracker drumming capabilities, this is not a normal rhythm. That is to say, to start this generation of consoles, you must have a continuous investment in this awareness. Based on my initial experience, the cost of a game ranging from 30 to 50 to 300 to 500 and 100 to 200 should be normal. So if you do n’t plan to invest too much in this, and be cautious, it is recommended to switch to the evaluation of the previous-generation platform. It ’s not fun or more fun. To be honest, I now have the idea of ​​a 360, because I find that I like a lot. All of the games are 360. Although x1 is compatible with some 360 ​​games, it is also part of ~ anyway. In addition, for users who want to pull a happy bouncing in the living room, x1 + is really a good choice to start with, after all, after all, spending a few thousand is less than going out to sing a K bubble It ’s really cheap entertainment expenses, and it ’s also a long-term entertainment.

About State Bank / Non-State Bank
At present, there are two worlds of x1. One is mainland China. The mainland software (games & applications) market is called the national service. The hardware equipment (hosts & controllers) officially sold by the mainland is called the National Bank, and the customers who buy the main bank of the National Bank are called the National Bank Warriors; the other is China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and foreign countries. The software market here includes American, Hong Kong, and woolen clothes, and the hardware includes American, European, and Hong Kong versions. It seems very complicated, but! They are in communication with each other (the specific method will be described later), so they are classified as a world. The two worlds have basically cut off the connection. The Bank of China cannot host external services and cannot play games bought on external services, and vice versa. However, there are a large number of claims that the National Bank mainframe can now play CD-ROM games issued in other regions, while non-National Bank mainframes still cannot play National Bank CD-ROMs. In other words, if the game buys CD-ROMs, the National Bank's mainframe will take it all. There are a lot of detailed instructions on the comparison between the State Bank and the non-State Bank, so I won't make a fool of it.

The reason I do n’t buy the Bank of China is that I ’m worried that I wo n’t be able to play the games I want to play, because, in addition to well-known masterpieces, there are many less famous games that I may want to play, and these games are unlikely to come out on CD-ROMs. It is too likely to enter the national service, and can only buy a digital version, then the national bank also plays an egg. Since I am already a non-National Bank camp, what is said below may not apply to the National Bank.

IQ tax is still rich and self-willed: those expensive to the surprising game skin

To play competitive games, the most important thing is to rely on your own strength. Whether it's a headshot in a shooting game or a five-kill in a MOBA game, players can feel the thrill of the game. However, in addition to defeating the opponent, there are still some players who want to make their opponents self-defeating by showing their "financial power" in the game.IQ tax is still rich and self-willed: those expensive to the surprising game skin

game unscratched


Although, most of the skin price in the game is within the range that the player can afford. But there are some exceptions, especially if the game operator allows cash transactions. "League of Legends" and "Watching Pioneer" are large-scale competitive games with a large number of players, but they all use the in-game currency trading method to sell the skin, which can prevent the appearance of high-priced goods in the game. However, for popular games like CS : GO and Dota 2 that allow cash transactions, their game item trading market can be described as crazy. Next, let's take a look at the expensive skins in the game.

2 Even the cool gold Gatlin is actually not expensive.


" CS : GO ": Skadoodle printing commemorative section Long spy --61 000 dollars

As one of the best-known teams in North America, the Cloud9 team finally won the Boston Special Championship in 2018 . This is the first ever North American team to reach the top of the CS : GO event. Cloud9 headed sniper Skadoodle because heroics in the final, completed a number of incredible special kill and was named Boston Championships 2018 annual MVP . It is also because this legendary game created the most expensive skin in the history of the game.

Only one day after the tournament ended, the commemorative dragon was sold at an incredibly high price. Dragonfly is a rare AWP gun skin in CS : GO . An ordinary dragon skin is already a high price in the eyes of ordinary players, not to mention the Skadoodle print commemorative dragon also has a "new factory" wear and "unscratched" stickers - these two indicators make this The rarity of the skin has turned several times.

Not only that, Skadoodle is now the hero of North America CS : GO , which is accompanied by a sticker with his name on the dragonfly, making this weapon more collectible. This series of factors made this dragonfly finally sold for $ 61,000 - twice the price of its original owner, the Drone, earlier.

Considering that there are so many factors that lead to the sky-high price of the Skadoodle commemorative dragon, there may be no game skin that can exceed this price in the short term. After all, whose money is not from the wind.

4 The name on the gun is what I wrote.


" Dota 2 ": Pink Skyfire war dogs - 38000 Meiyuan

The position of the Pink Skyfire Dog in Dota 2 is almost equivalent to the position of Skadoodle in CS : GO . It is an extremely rare messenger in Dota 2 , and people are likely to underestimate its rarity.

The pink color of this special "war dog" is also a very rare color in Dota 2 . Because when the special effect messenger was just online, there were some errors in the color code of the messenger in the game, which caused some players to call out the black color, which is almost invisible, so the valve made a color adjustment for all the messengers, which stipulated ten. Standard color. And pink is the color that was only available before this adjustment. Pink, coupled with the game's coolest and most difficult to get "Tianhuo" effect, makes the price of this pink skyfire dog impossible.

5 Pink is a very rare color in Dota 2


The Pink Skyfire dog traded for $ 38,000 on the Reddit forum , making it the most expensive skin in Dota 2 history.

There is always a group of players in " CS : GO " who dream of getting rich by getting some items overnight. The dark gold all-blue quenching AK-47 is an example. First of all, blue is one of the most sought-after colors of the AK-47 , and the wear and tear of this skin has increased its value. The live opening process on YouTube also made this skin have some hype effect in the community.

Dark Gold Full Blue Quenching AK-47 Game

It is difficult to estimate the specific value of this dark gold all-blue quenching AK-47 , because it is not actually sold by real money, but by guns and keys. So it's probably in the valuation of 3 or so million dollars, the price is enough to ordinary people to buy a car.

Compared with the above skins, the Pure Gold Poultry Master's Cloak is much cheaper. But this skin has an unofficial honor - the most expensive exclusive skin. Because although the messenger can be tied to a personal account, it can be used with any hero. This pure gold poultry cloak can only be used by the hero Rabic.

Although the pure gold poultry mage cloak can only be used by a single hero, it does not affect the value of the jewelry. Because Rabick is a very popular hero in the game, thanks to his big trick "skill stealing", this skill can steal the last skill of the other hero and use it for himself. Players use this skill to create a lot of scenes in the game that make people scream. Only pure gold jewelry is worthy of these wonderful moments.

However, this knife has some background stories. There are rumors that the knife initial price of up to 3 million dollars, but whether it is in YouTube or in Reddit forum all relevant evidence can not be found. At present, this knife has not appeared for more than a year, so there is no accurate price for this knife on the game trading website.

According to our experience, this dark gold crimson bayonet can now be sold for at least $ 2,000 . Because there are a number of purchase orders with a price tag of $ 2,000 on Steam 's trading market , no one sells them. So we can be sure that if there is a seller, the price of this knife must be more than 2,000 US dollars.

" Dota 2 ": gold mountains of meat Bumble - 2 000 US dollars

The Golden Meat Mountain Baby is a mini version of the Big Boss Meat Mountain in Dota 2 . It is loved by players for its golden appearance and local temperament. For the players who are not familiar with " Dota 2 ", it is simple to learn the meat mountain: in the game, the meat mountain is a must for two teams. The meat mountain can not only get a lot of money and experience, but also get the "preservation of immortality" and "Cheese" two items, thus gaining a huge advantage. Therefore, Meat Mountain is almost synonymous with victory.

10 Small meat mountain, big price


The tiger father has no dogs, and the golden meat mountain baby does not live up to expectations. It has become synonymous with "scarcity." This messenger has no transaction records since January 2018 , and it is unlikely that there will be sellers in the near future. The messenger’s recent transaction price was $ 1,800 . But considering that it has not appeared in the trading market for a long time, the price of the Golden Meat Mountain baby should now be close to $ 2,000 or even higher.

" Dota 2 ": 2015 Nian 7ckngMad signature bottle Treasures - The 1850 Meiyuan

Although it Skadoodle signature dragon is not a spy on the price scale, but the 2015 years of autographs in 2018 Nian Dota2 after international tournament really worth soared. The OG team was almost forced to disband in May 2018. They won the championship at the Dota 2 International Invitational Tournament in 2018 with a temporary formation , and won a $11 million prize, while the retired 7ckngMad played in this legendary victory. The key role.

Cosmetic_icon_Golden_Trove_Carafe_2015

This legendary story will bring high market value to related items, so the 2015 Jumbo bottle with 7ckngMad signature has become a favorite baby who wants to collect this history. Although the time difference between this Jumbo bottle and the 7ckngMad won is a bit far, it does not prevent players from paying for it. It's currently worth $1,850, and it's likely to grow higher over time because it's so much.

As long as there are game items signed by players, savvy collectors will not let them go, because no one can predict which player will be famous for a key victory. This investment strategy obviously does not always succeed, but considering the huge benefits that can be achieved once successful, buying skin in this way seems to be a relatively safe investment strategy.

11 Legendary players will make a number of equally legendary items


"Jesus Survival": Olive Branch Print Pan - $ 1,750

Although Jedi Survival is one of the hottest games in recent years, its popularity in expensive skin trading is low, and only a handful of items can sell for more than a thousand dollars. The most interesting of these items should be this olive branch print pan.

Although we found in the transaction record that a user sold the pan for less than $ 100 , no one could understand the user's psychological activity, and there was no similar transaction price. Therefore, this transaction record has no reference value.

"Fortress of the Night": "Galaxia" Skin - 1000 Meiyuan

Finally, let's take a look at the cheapest skin in our most expensive skin series. Surprisingly, this skin comes from the current popular game Fortress Night. Whether it's game revenue or online play, this game is gradually becoming one of the most influential IPs in the gaming world .

Game Fortress of the Night

"Xinghe" is the first dynamic skin in "Fortress Night". It has a gorgeous appearance and cool dynamic effects, and it is not available from the game.
