When will there be a notification to tell me controller batteries have like 10 mins remaining. The battery indicator on dash is pointless when in game.

I'm hoping for that, Can't they introduce what the 360 had and make the lights flash or something.
Fed up with the batteries going mid game and scrambling for my charging cable.

I posted a thread about this some time ago on the preview forums. Don't think anybody replied
hopefully ms bod saw it though

I think as it (seems) to be one led that would be hard... Seems like an underthought problem.
Actually suppose the one led could just flash
Associate
Yeah that could work really.
Even a notification on screen saying to change batteries or plug in charger would be good.
Hopefully they will add it sooner or later.
Don
Maybe they should have made the kinect more useful with useful led's or even text!
They need to fix how long party app takes to load for the first time after a boot and you're in a game it's ridiculous. Receive invite, pause game to join, snap comes up does nothing. 5 mins later time out error, try again several more minutes and a 50/50 chance of getting in that time or a second time out & try again. Often by the time you actually get in they've given up and left lol

Is that since the May update? (if you're in the preview program) because I've been lucky and never hardly had an issue with the party system, except for the odd problem where I couldn't hear anybody.
I haven't tried it since the May update though.
It's a bit daft that sort of notification wasn't added at the point they added the battery meter to the dashboard itself (next to the clock).
In the last week I have had my controller die on me twice due to not knowing how low the batteries are in game (the battery meter doesn't always show for me?!). Luckily I have a second controller / a long enough USB lead to carry on playing.
It is kind of odd that these seemingly basic features were / have been missed completely.

Battery meter doesn't always show for me either, I've gotta keep pressing the guide button a few times when I'm on the home screen.

Can't find official topic so I'll dump it here, but Sunset Overdrive footage has been released, not checked it out yet as my net is being slow but from the pics it looks pretty decent!

edit: Watched the footage now, that's really pretty and looks like it could be a lot of fun! Defo would like to see more of it.

It reminds me of a weird love child of Infamous and Ratchett & Clank.
