The long-awaited November update for Xbox is finally here and it includes some major improvements for Discord and the Store. For Discord, the update brings support for rich media links, better audio quality, and increased security. For the Store, the update brings a new design, improved search, and more.
Rich media links in Discord
One of the biggest improvements in the November update for Discord is the support for rich media links. This means that you can now embed photos, videos, and other types of media directly into your Discord messages. To do this, simply paste the link into your message and Discord will automatically embed the media.
This is a great addition for those who use Discord to share photos and videos with their friends. It’s also a great way to add some context to your messages. For example, if you’re talking about a video game, you can now embed a trailer or gameplay footage directly into your message.
Better audio quality in Discord
The November update also brings improved audio quality to Discord. This is thanks to the new Opus codec, which is now the default codec for Discord voice chats. Opus is a high-quality codec that is designed for real-time voice communication.
The improved audio quality is especially noticeable in Discord’s new noise suppression feature. This feature uses machine learning to reduce background noise in your voice chats. This is great for those who use Discord in noisy environments, such as coffee shops or gaming events.
Increased security in Discord
The November update also includes increased security for Discord. This includes the addition of two-factor authentication (2FA) for Discord accounts. 2FA is an extra layer of security that requires you to enter a code from your phone in addition to your password. This makes it much harder for hackers to gain access to your account.
To enable 2FA, simply go to the Security tab in your Discord settings and enable the two-factor authentication option. You’ll then need to download the Authy app and add your Discord account to it.
New design for the Store
The November update also brings a new design for the Store. The new design is more streamlined and easier to navigate. It also includes new sections, such as a “What’s New” section that highlights the latest releases.
The improved search feature in the Store is also worth mentioning. The new search feature includes filters that allow you to narrow down your results. For example, you can now search for games that are only available on Xbox One.
The November update for Xbox is a great update for both Discord and the Store. The support for rich media links in Discord is a great addition, and the improved audio quality is much appreciated. The new design for the Store is also a welcome change.
