They have been trying to get this thread title changed for a while and apparently a normal mod can’t do it.What?

So I said to go straight to the top and that’s you....
A mod should be able to change a thread title if that's what's wanted?
@Miss Mandy is that possible?
Yes, mods can change an individual thread title. What does it need changing to?
One other thing is you might lose the quick resume feature if you run Xbox one games off of a usb drive too as that apparently dumps the ram states in to the SSD and when you resume pulls the data back to the ram (according to Austin Evans deep dive video at ms). Not sure if they'll find a way to stash instant resume data cache in the SSD but allow the main game itself be on the usb drive to allow this to work though.
I'm sure quick resume will only work for games on the internal SSD because it's all possible because of the Velocity Architecture and the fact it can instantly access 100GB from the SSD. No external drives will have that capability.
Absolutely, I was very pleased to see it! I just wonder if it will only work with digital games or if new Xbox Series games bought on disk will work with it?
Just a couple of points that were confirmed on the latest major Nelson podcast
Firstly, suspend and quick resume works for Xbox one, and back compat games even if they are installed on an external HDD. The suspended game state memory is frozen and stored on the internal SSD (all suspended game States are stored on the internal SSD, so adding the Seagate external SSD doesn't increase the amount of games you can suspend) then when you resume it loads up that state from the internal SSD to memory, and continues to play the game from the external HDD as before.
As expected they also confirmed on there that you need the disc in the console in order to play the game, so quick resume will work, but it will involve you swapping discs.
Thanks for that, hmm kinda makes it a bit pointless if you have a lot of games on disk.
I'm going to give Quick Resume a try,
but don't think I will ever be in a situation where I'll always use it in one go... I tend to just play 1 game then get bored and move to the next
Why?I wont use quick resume anyway I always shut down and save my game when I finish playing
even if you only play one game you'll still get the benefit of quick resume. It isn't just about switching between games. You could play some of that game today, suspend it, shut down the console, and come back to it tomorrow without having to completely load the game from scratch and be playing within just a few seconds.
The potential bottleneck here is always-online games that need to sign into the third-party developer's/publisher's service, such as Destiny 2 or Ghost Recon Breakpoint.
For example, even if I don't fully quit these games on my One X nor play anything else in between sessions, they take me back to the title screen and require me to log into Bungie/Ubisoft services before it loads my game save or any content.
I wonder if the devs have taken this into account and will update their games and infrastructure to support Quick Resume.
