VinWarrior Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Recently, Microsoft announced that you can code colors to your achievements, such as blue or red, to distinguish who's achievement it is when playing Co-op on the same Xbox One console. Noticed the light blue colored achievement below, it can be changed to any color. Also, pressing the button opens up more details for that achievement, like on the Xbox 360. And finally, dashboards can be customized with different colors, such as red and blue, like said above. While multiple pictures have surfaced, I was unable to find any, so, here is a standard green Dashboard with mixes of light blue. This could really personalize the Xbox experience and I am excited to see how it turns out, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buns Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I guarantee, Someone will find a way to abuse this...Someone always finds a way to abuse things like this... Um how would they abuse color changes? Like adding rainbows? I don't think it would matter if they did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stig Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Um how would they abuse color changes? Like adding rainbows? I don't think it would matter if they did. The whole concept in general. Some crazy hacker or modder or just someone with to much time, will make swastikas on the Custom Dashboard, or put some kind of light flashing color changing achievement that will give those with epilepsy seizures.... And even if they don't do any of those, out of all the hundreds of millions of gamers, you know as well as I, that at least ONE of them will ruin this, for all of us.There is always a way to exploit a system.

BeckoningZebra1 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 This was actually very needed on the 360, glad it'll be on the One. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude you're thinking of things that are just fictional. If a hacker makes changes to their system with these custom colors it will only affect THEIR and I repeat their system. They can't all of a sudden turn my achievements into swastikas unless they have physical access to my system. This is a console not a personal computer. Not to mention please define what swastikas you are talking about obviously you mean the Nazi Swastikas, but a swastika doesn't all of a sudden mean that, It could also be the Buddhist symbol(of peace or something like that) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies. I was not trying to argue with you, or upset you (and if I did, then I am seriously sorry) but I was just trying to say that there could be some kind of problem. Any problem. Be it this or that, or anything. Nothings perfect, and everything has problems. I was just trying to say what I thought might happen. You are right though, most likely these particular instances that I pointed out will not occur, but you never know. And on the off chance that they do... It will suck. For all of us. Again, I apologize, I am really idiotic and sound stupid sometimes. lol. Anyways, You are correct, I was talking about the Nazi swastikas ( I just didn't say that because I didn't want to offend anyone). See you around again sometime my friend.
