重點摘錄

"We all have better things to do than wait for people to show up
to play a game. It would be great if I could start up the flight
sim game, see if anyone is online to play, put in my play request
and then switch to something else while I wait for people to show
up. That is what Smart Match on Xbox One allows people to do. It
makes it easy for a title to create a match request and then
“untether” me so I don’t need wait in the title while the match
search is processing. I can switch to reading a quick social blog
or watch a viral video and when the match is ready Xbox One tells
me to pull me back into the title to play. "
(比起等待玩家出現一起玩遊戲，我們有更值得去做的事情。如果我可以執行
一款飛行遊戲，觀察是否有人在線上玩，把我的請求放上去，然後當我在
等其他玩家的出現時，我可以去做其他的事情，這是很棒的。這就是Xbox One
的 Smart Match 提供的事情。它讓一款遊戲很容易的送出配對請求，然後
就不干我的事了，所以我不需要去等待遊戲配對的搜尋時間。我可以切換去
讀一些部落格或是看一段小影片，當配對完成 Xbox One 會告訴我，把我拉回
遊戲。)


"You will be able to launch a popular shooter or sports title and
see the “typical wait time” for different online game modes. For
example, imagine a match area for a quick match] that might have
a wait time of 1 minute, and then another match area in the title
for “match by downloadable content (DLC)” with typical wait
time of 7 minutes. Chances are you’d never wait in a game for 7
minutes to play online, you’d just make do with “quick match”
and lowest common denominator DLC. With Xbox One titles, you can
instead pick the longer “match by DLC” option if you please, see
it might take 7 minutes to find a match that night, and switch to
another task while Smart Match in the cloud is searching for you.
You end up with a much more enjoyable match result since you get to
play with people with similar DLC versus just the lowest common
denominator levels in the base title. You get to make the most use
the latest map or car you just bought to keep the game play fresh
and interesting, versus just going into quick match with the same
options every night."
(在執行一款射擊或運動遊戲時，對於不同的線上模式，你將可以看到平均
等待時間。比如說，有個快速配對的區域的等待時間約1分鐘，另外一個有
下載內容的配對區域是七分鐘。有很大的機會，你絕不會為了線上遊戲等
七分鐘，你寧願選擇快速且最少DLC的配對。在Xbox One上，如果你願意的話
你可以選擇七分鐘，但有下載包的配對，然後切換到其他工作。雲端上的
Smart Match會幫你搜尋。)


With Xbox One, I’m looking forward to putting in my match request
in for a super special online play style or specific DLC needed
for a play mode, then kicking back and letting Xbox Live do the work
to find me a good person to play with while I practice my mad skills.
Here’s an example of playing Ryse and then getting a match ready
toast to jump into Killer Instinct online play that was shown in
Monday’s E3 presentation.

這段就不翻譯了，簡單的說就是除了可以切換出去看影片之外
也可以切換去玩其他遊戲，就像E3展的展示一樣
Ryse玩到一半後就可以跑去玩Killer Instinct
等配對結束後，你就可以回到單機遊戲繼續玩
