!UPDATE!

Here below are a list of the current suggestions we've received. Just to keep this thread tidier, I've deleted the posts and put them here.

BO-XLINK SUGGESTIONS

- Message friends while hosting a room.
- Browse other areas while still hosting a room, then having an alert when someone has joined your room.
- More details on the user list screen
- Filter games list in rooms mode
- Creating "WGN Rooms Mode"
- Compulsory setting of status in WGN Mode
- On-screen keyboard as well as preset chat text
- Allowing a TV mode setting for people with widescreen TV's (16:9 and 4:3)

X-LINK SUGGESTIONS

- Better chat system, possibly integrating the IRC chat room into XLink itself
- User details when clicking on a user that shows profile details / location / profile pic etc
- Browse other areas while still hosting a room and be alerted when someone joins your room
- Creating "WGN Rooms Mode"
- Compulsory setting of status in WGN Mode
- In-built help for newbies
- Allowing rooms to have custom descriptions

Thanks for the suggestions guys, we do appreciate it. Not everything you request is always possible and currently TD is spending some of his time away from XLink working on Factions so you'll have to be patient

Thanks,
XLink Crew.

APPLICATION: BoxLink

SUGGESTION: Integration with XBMC / XBMP


So u can use xbmc as dashboard and when the box starts up, u will automatically login to xlink (configurable in config.xml)

Application - Bo-Xlink

Suggestion - Its a big change that i doubt will happen but maybe you can setup the skin or something to look like irc! so the list of people in a  room are on the side and you can chat in the same window that way people will see when someone said something and not miss the vibration of the conrtoller

Application - Xlink Messenger

Suggestion - For the advanced settings maybe you can make a easy to use optimization panel for internet connections! different ways to make your latency lower so when 1 person lags it isnt horrible enough to crash the game.. if there is a way to do that.. because everyone who uses xbox for online has broadband and i dont think it should crash almost everygame you play unless your hosting....

OR

Make some kind of tutorial or guide(ANYONE PLEASE) on how to optimize your connection for xbox! i got super fast cable and i cant even play halo or anything anymore without it having technical difficulties or laggins so much that it takes 20 seconds to quit out after you pressed the button....

Application - Xlink Messenger

Suggestion - A way to save the settings you edit because everytime you have to login again everythings back to default and you have to edit the boot process and stuff like that again.. its not hard to edit everything again but its a pain in the ass after a while...

more player 32 if possible or when u enter a room everyone is in the same pace so u just turn on ur xbox and keep playing

[MastaChef]

APPLICATION: XLINK

Suugestion:More alerts of incoming messages... like what it does when u recieve the first message from someone just every time (blinking taskbar and sound).

also a universal messanger so u can message someone no matter what mode they are in

[CeREaL]

application: bo-xlink

suggestion: i dunno if its been said yet but how about some kind of pm service where you can pm people in the room for challenges or when there are too much people talking... and if you can get the chat window on the same screen as the userlist so that way when the controller vibrates people dont miss it and not see messages this way people will always see messages when they join the room...

[taz1975uk]

APPLICATION: Xlink / Bo-Xlink

Suggestion:   Be able to add your own status message in messenger mode. that will be visable to all others.

The main reason I want this is so that people can advertise the fact that they want a ladder match by changing the status.

so I would be happy with a simple addition to the list.

something like "Looking for a Ladder Match"

The G drive is a good idea though - thx..

How do I start Xlink in safe mode, and what does it disable?

[fireflier]

Dunno if this is possible or even if this is already possible, but would be nice if you could drop out of a game and go right back to boxlink screen, rather than rebooting to dash.
