Dall-e is pretty decent.
Craiyon (formerly known as Dall-e mini) is much worse at that.
But in general, yeah, faces are not their strength. Animals fare better though.
alr
No halo? Fake
nothing is nothing and is made of nothing
This one ended quite good š
It looks like itās smoking a cigar
holy
Although it's kinda missing half its body
united states of america in north america next to south america also named america
Sargeant Johnson if he was a corgi
Maybe not the result I was expecting...
genuine abomination
I like Chief wearing the cowboy hat
Same
š
Arthur Solos tho
I would love a backrooms map in midnight club
I have a 2 month gamepass code but I'm not xbox šæ
can u do something like someone enters the backrooms or smth
give to meš
I put it here?
You can also use it on pc
YES! I feel like I need to tag Deek here š
I don't have a pc
I like the 1st and third one
Iām in the matrix
The cartoon versions are cooler, but you gotta admit this AI does an impressive job at doing different artstyles when you prompt it to do so
It also lets you pick your favorite one and do variations from it instead
Doggo
OvO
This is actually a good one
Whatās an explorer role again
What is this website
Lego Spawn is using Craiyon.
I'm using OpenAI.
They both allow you to enter a text prompt and the AI will try to draw several variations of what you typed.
You should have
I don't get it , i typed something and the characters are correct but their face has been completely changed
Well thatās
The ai isnāt really good at faces
Oh , cause the faces are like creepy ghosts š
Can anyone else purchase anything in the Xbox store
Why,something wrong?
I've been trying for 15 hours to buy the far harbor dlc and it will load for a second then say oops with a random error code
Omg the AI is really bad with faces š
I wonder how JSRF would play if it took place in the backrooms
Might be that particular dlc problem?
You can use it for ultimate and cloud purposes
And my internet connection is strong I have money on my card it's not locked or expired all apps and console is up to date
So then that particular dlc has a problem
I was able to buy fo4 dlc last week
And I tried to buy the contraptions dlc and that wouldn't let me by either
Guys
This is highly annoying, I finally get to play some games after a long week or work and I can't even buy dlc
How come thumb grips cost sooooo much
For future use š (Note: no, Xbox is not down right now - this is just a variation on an old photo from last time)
Had to see what would happen
Someone on steam has messaged saying free discord things with the name system management just making sure it's a scam
Itās a scam for sure.
There called system message but spelt message wrong lol
Or at least most likely.
They spelt it mesage
Should I troll them
Saying is this real and see what they put
Someone help me with my gamepass
it saying my store regions does not match and it wont let me renew it
how do i fix it
contact support https://support.xbox.com/contact-us
mhmm k
Just block and report them. They are pretty used to people doing that and get quite aggressive if you don't react fast
Remember why my xbox no worl
nothing helpfull there
If you have a issue with renewing your gp and region contact support we cant not help or see your account
Will the more be 4 xbox one/series games next month with gold?
2
likley not just 2
tells you in the email Xbox sent out
"Furthermore, Games with Gold will continue to include Xbox One titles each month."
Doesnāt mean that all, just possibly implies it.
just wait and see then next month
there is no reason for them to give 4 games. GWG is been phased out for years now
Sony only give out 3 games on their Essential tier
I'm only expecting 2 games a month from now. GwG is not a focus when compared with Game Pass.
yeah just another thing that was part of Gold
They havent exactly been top games. to be clear and support what they doing and done with GWG
I downloaded the games that came out, but majority of them I havent even played
same
people complain they want GwG every month, but they see the games and complain again they arent what they wanted. so cant win either way
I cant remember the last time i played a game that i have have just because GWG likley years
I played Another Sight which was few months back
you see Sony putting Deathloop in their sub this month
I think they do want to kill it but if they do they get the headlines so just about timing and i guess not everyone as gamepass yet
when this Friends and Family rolls around think it could happen
Yo can some help me
after seeing previous messages, and if I think its what you gonna ask, nobody can help
I got a 2 months gp pass but it says stuff about cancelling the sub cuz i bought mine from a retailer
When i press next it asks me for a cc
Because there needs to be a way to pay for the rest of the membership once that 2mo expires
yes, thats a trial code.. a proper retail code wouldnt ask for that
Guys I need help bru I can't play GTA it keeps saying my account is rated above content restrictions even tho I setup my account myself my parents don't even know my Xbox account nor my password
How do I fix this can someone help please

Bru
Do you think that if a series x pro comes out it will break the 60fps cap on forza
what
Forza has a 60fps cap on series x and s
Idk but I enjoy playing forza on full ultra 120+fps on my pc master race
Weird flex, but OK.
people always watching fake youtubers who say they heard something.. you wont be seeing a new console for years because none of the games are even using any of these features and once they do the features are gonna keep console around till next one is due
you can get 120 fps on the series s and x on forza Horizon 5, unsure about 4
Is it with vrr?
SO GOOD
vrr?
we not even 2 years into this generation. and people asking for next one
Variable Refresh Rate
Itās a think on certain monitors
I haven't even got my hands on the series x or PS5 my heart can't take another console release so soon š
Itās the reason I get 60+ fps on msfs 2020
whats the worst thing to ever happen
Do you know how?
60fps is a first for some of these latest Forza titles. so no I dont think 120 is a thing on console not yet anyway
Absolutely not
Forza was 30 for a long time
The game says 30 fps quality mode. 60 fps performance mode
I canāt believe I used to play 30 on forza š
But it says 120 fps on the Xbox Box š¦ KEKW
?
yes not every game does 120, its upto the developers what they choose for their games
I donāt notice 30/60 fps difference in forza horizon 5. Soo i just play quality mode.
I do not understand why medal of honor above and beyond is so big.
I heard in 2023 most devs will be focusing on next gen exclusives only
Whatās that
yes thats correct, Xbox One slowly being dropped
It is a 10h story.
I heard that too on YouTubers speculating
Imagine being stuck at 60 fps in 2022 Xbox and PlayStation is stuck in 2005
Wth
Like bruh how.
not speculation. you can see it happening. some 3rd party devs already dropped PS4/Xbox One and just going with current gen
Pc master race
Good for you
True
Cool
Itās about time we got our moneys worth for next gen consoles
I never understood the whole pc master race thing
Xbox One been around since 2013, even if you bought a One S or One X its still an Xbox One variant.
Can GOG be used in dev mode?
They're trying to make themselves feel better for spending way too much money.
You see it with every thing. Phones, cars, printers, tvs, motorcycles.
Wdym most games are already X|S optimized
Consoles are not worth it the only good thing about console is the closed OS so itās harder to use cheats
Good Old Games?
Ur an obvious troll
Ahh there it is
It also makes it harder to mod with on certain games is a big downside
isnt the same thing though. they maybe optimized but the games are still cross-gen. I think they mean games that are fully built with just Series/PC in mind
Nah Iām just saying Facts
Yes
Oh
With cloud gaming Xbox will just port every next gen game onto the last gen
Since those are only PC games, and the Xbox doesn't run PC game code, no, they will not run. And Dev. mode is for gasp development, not to allow you to use emus.
Hell maybe even the 360
Ex: msfs 2020
dont need to port, the cloud servers are SeriesX custom consoles which is why you can play Series games on Xbox Ones through streaming
Agree or disagree with this statement
Series s is holding back next gen
big false on that
I wanted to āemulateā Homeworld
that is like saying lower end graphics cards are holding back higher end cards
Not at all true
Having stitches is so weird.
You have a bunch of pieces of string just coming out of your skin. Creeps me out.
Random af but ok
Series S is still current-gen and going to be next to the X for the whole time.. once AMD Super Res comes to more games you will see the S being pushed.. also the S is selling more cause its the right price point for most players
I hope Xbox optimized Minecraft soon
Cuz right now it feels like playing bedrock on a 360
you just full of random questions
I don't think the Series S is holding back that much. The focus on continuing to support Xbox One however is.
Definitely that's why I bought it, X was too much lol
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Just like games are being made with PS4 in mind. The PS5 versions can't change that much.
Is the PS5 worth getting?
Yes
It's got some pretty good games on it.
Yes
I want Keira back in Forza
yeah again back to tools/features will happen eventually and you will see a change in the games we start getting
And if you didn't get a PS4 pro, a bunch of the game features they made for that system work native on PS5.
I liked having an Irish character in Forza
FSR is great. Helps me run games at 4K on my PC a little better than trying to do so natively and there isn't too much loss in visual quality
Did you actually say that in an Xbox Server? (R/madlads)
Kind of like Xbox One X support on Series X, stuff just moves over to the latest hardware
Iād get it, only because Iām a huge spider-man fan, but the console is HUGE, I saw my friends and was honestly surprised
Nothing wrong with that
Hi guys
yeah plenty people here with Playstations its fine, long as you dont start with platform wars
I have a 1440p monitor but says it supports 4K, idk if running a series x on it would play native 4K
Hi alex.
Hi blue
Jango fett
Some monitors take 4K signals and down them
Yes heās my favorite Star Wars character
Never watched Star Wars
The buy it and play it on a PC. You can't run PC games on a console.
So if your monitor is a 1440p that supports 4K signals, it's down converting the image to 1440p
HGJ4M-264M6-49729-D6J42-GVPHZ
You should watch it, i heard its a great franchise
You totally should @grave osprey I just watched it for the first time and oh man
Ok cuz Iām running a series s on it and forza at 1080p doesnāt look the best
What did you watch, the first movie?
His death is quite sad
Bro
I watched revenge of the sith first.
Thatās my favourite
Is that om disney +
They all are
yeah all the star wars are on D+
The series s gives me bad vibes for some reason
As a kid all i wanted to be was a Jedi
I wanted to be a sith only cause I thought Darth Vader was so cool
But now I agree with the Jedis
I think empire strikes back is the best from a story telling perspective
Idk jedis are kinda a holes tbh
Ok, well great news! Battlefront II and Jedi Fallen Order and more Star wares games are on EA Play or GPU
I have yet to watch it
WHAT
BATTLE FRONT TWO IS FREE????
On EA PLAY yeah
With gamepass is it
Yeah Iāve played them all
Or Game Pass Ultimate
My friend sent me a picture of me to his friend now he has it as his pfp. What do I do?
I would love to play it. Me and my friends could.
With game pass ultimate yes
and tons more Star Wars game are in development too
I wonder if I should upgrade my series s to an X
The Kotor remake which is PS5 exclusive š¦ doesnāt matter to me cause I has one
timed exclusive
Oh
If a āseries x proā isnāt coming out anytime soon then I might
I have a Xbox series s and an ps5. My Xbox freezes a lot
Like we talkin weeks or months
Sony love to try sell people that they got these games when most of them they chucked money to Market the game and make it seem like they only on that console
Series X is an overall king
^
Not really a fan but then again I haven't played any spider man games so I might give it a shot b4 we get another console lol
Series X is a BIG BOI
I didnāt think the ps5 would be that big until I seen it in person. Itās huge
as I said. November will be 2 years these Series consoles have been out for. so dont expect another console this soon. Xbox focused on making games now not more hardware. interview from 2020 said 7-10 years these consoles will be around for
Series X hasn't even been out for 2 years yet. Got to love all teh rumour mill talk on new hardware lol
We can all agree switch needs a pro version if itās self.
An android runs games better than it
Xbox ready is kind of clickbait
Sony already coming out with PS5 revisions. some of them making them lighter cant remember whatelse was being changed. but they launched in Australia
Lol I remember on my switch it would always heat up to like an oven temp
Lol thatās funny
I think Sony making them lighter is all they are doing and off the back of a price increase too, ouch imo
H
Is it cheaper?
Switch barely runs breath of the wild
Switch can barely run anything
Facts
I remember back in 2016 if you could make your console the smallest youād be consider king
Now ps5 is taking up a whole living room
Exactly
Psp was so ahead of time
has me somewhat worry just what they are doing to make their console lighter. There was already a revision that made it lighter once already and it was found out they cut back on the cooling. Which is a bad idea on a console that I already understand can face cooling issues...
Xbox Exclusives: FM8, Starfield, Halo, FH5, and 1,000 more.
Playstation Exclusives: Spider Man (2018) Spider Man MM (2020) Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Gran Turismo, blah blah
Nintendo: Animal Crossing, Mario, Donkey Kong. Ace Attorney, Kirby, Metroid, and a lot of others.
So they have benefits in each but Xbox has the best ones.
Xbox series x is a whole fridge
A damn good one
I'll stick to my switch oled rn
I use it for all my retro stuff
The first spider man did come out to pc tho
Which new games are gonna be added to game pass?
True
I hope farcry 6 is there
Why is Xbox kinda on and off with adding gta 5 to game pass?
we aren't attempting to do console wars here I hope
Far cry 6 was bad
Nintendo games are a lot more āfamily friendlyā which kind of puts it away from the console war
I eant to play it for the dlcs
Now why would we do that?
Never played the dlcs
Rockstar put GTA V into game pass twice, stayed for 3-4 months both times. its upto them to decide and Microsoft paid them, thats the contract
Dlcs from farcry 3 4 and 5
Bro they should add lego games to gamepass , i remember it had Lego City undercover, it was so much fun to complete that game
Is any gta on gamepass?
Oh cool
not anymore
No gta on ps plus
I was jist thinking about lego worlds
Unpopular opinion
||lego Star Wars skywalker sage is bad||
Omg I wanted Lego worlds so bad cause I watched dantdm play it
Me too bro
It's ok being wrong sometimes
there are tons of games coming to Game Pass, you have a coming soon list on the console with dates. also look around the web.. official list will appear on Tuesday most likely
@calm bridge you seem chill we should play soemtime
Iād love too
Stay mad
I want lego incredibles and Jurassic world in the gamepass ngl ,. would really love to play Lego incredibles
Lol idk if deek gets mad
You think that game is bad. Who's the one that's gone mad?? š¤£
Can Deek even get angry?
Im happy subnautica is on gamepass but it runs so poorly
Iām playing demons souls remake looked at a wall for 10 min bc of how high quality the textures are holy cow all next gen games should look like this jaw dropping
Lol anchel
I could go on a rant of why I donāt like it
Spare us
I sometimes wish there was a voting page , where you can vote which game you would want in the future gamepass
Hey everyone, hope you have an awesome holiday weekend!
But Iām not
Runs fine for me
Democracy is nice isnāt it
I will be playing Xbox for the whole time
Correction - Amazing weekend*
Lol
Me angy š”
Lol
this is GP we know about,. there be more surprises. plus its Tokyo GameShow on the 15th might see more games there too :-
You Suck At Parking sounds interesting
Fallout 76 is it worth trying
It does I was about to say that
yeah looks fun in MP
Forza 120fps when?
It sure is , but gamepass developers aren't nice enough, are they
For the "one piece" fans
You can vote as much as you want, but if the devs or publishers don't want to put their games on Game Pass, not much you can do. Sometimes they can't due to contractual obligations, even.
On xbox one?
The corporate dictatorship has gotten to their heads
Ps5
Forza Motorsport for next year they chose 60fps, I keep saying its upto the developers how they want to pick and choose these features. so dont know why 120fps has to be a thing
Who what now?
What now??
Can Homeworld be emulated?
Because itās flashy and a cool selling point
Motorsport with Raytracing too
Ps5
tbh Forza Horizon 5 should be able to do 120 FPS at 1080p and maybe 1440p on the Series X but 4K will be a stretch. I hear the upcoming Forza Motorsport is also making use of ray tracing so don't expect 120 FPS there either
yeah Turn10 already confirmed its 60
Idc about 120 fps bc my tv is 60 fps lol
ahh, typing slow today so I am lol
It's not just a button devs click to enable 120 fps, you know?
If they decide to go for graphical fidelity instead, while keeping a more than great stable 60fps, having a 120 fps mode is not that simple.
Omg that's super cool
Good go for fidelity
Because Series X can do anything
@alpine cave getting ready to play it
I think 60 fps is more than enough for console games. At 4k, a lot of tv's don't support higher anyway
Up to the devs to release a port for Xbox
Yea my tv is 60hz
only game I tried at 120 was Dirt 5, but had to drop it down to 1080p for that to work.
mine can do 120 but only at 1080p

TVs these days are becoming more common having support for 120Hz and VRR
Apologies
Need a new tv tho
Em? Can I out up a request for a feature somewhere?
yeah but then you spend 1,000's just for a new TV
out it up all you want
Not spending $3k just for oled vrr 120hz
Honestly i want dragon ball z xenoverse 3
afaik there are some that don't cost thousands
I am not upgrading anymore. I got 5 TV's as it is. gonna wait till one breaks
Lego games in gamepass when
5tv wtf
Ik
The sweet spot this generation is variable 4k resolution and 60 fps.
120 fps is a nice extra for those that want it, but definitely not a priority when most people won't even notice the difference / most games wouldn't be able to hit that framerate.
I am in a family, we all game on separate Xboxes
I wish the devs would give Xbox players more options to customize their games
Maybe Warner Brothers will get around to it once they stop messing up HBO MAX
Like choose 1080p 120fps etc
Wife still using my old TV from like 15 years ago
Lol
Priorities
Um.. I don't want to tag you here Em but can you read my previous message? It is regarding the Xbox dashboard
Wtf
OLEDs obviously fetch a premium due to the type of panel tech they use but there are TVs below £1000 (and other currency equivalents) that I'm sure will support 120Hz and VRR otherwise they really are milking console gamers silly
22in, 32in, x2 42in and one 43in 4K
you can request features on reddit
Do you have a link to the message? I'm not finding it easily scrolling up
Ah okay thank you! Which Reddit page is that?
Love the QD oleds but holy expensive
It is about requesting a feature. But I already got an answer.
Lol same i even have extras laying around cuz the wife wont use the xsx i got her cuz her x1 is still working š¤¦āāļø
Meanwhile I have no wife
yeah mines on One X, daughter is complaining her One S is slow or takes ages to load games, and she wants a Series
Do u know if the game will have quality/performance mode? I donāt follow forza motorsport news so idk
It's a nice extra, and we already get performance vs quality options in many games.
But devs already struggle sometimes to keep a stable 60 fps, even stable 30 fps sometimes, on consoles.
Lol tell her to start saving lol
Ah I didn't see, my bad. I sometimes lose track here when it is fairly busy.
they havent said about those modes yet., usually they have Forza Monthlies with all the details as the game isnt out till maybe Spring 2023. they gonna do videos around different things on the game leading upto release
Y'all got xbox's just laying around?
Well, and tbf you may not have realized you typoed your question
One s is slow
Ooh okay
I have 2
Like fr I want one lol
Facts, i have an one s and well it's getting slower
same as they do with Forza Horizon and the playlists, new cars etc
Ya is that not normal lol
The feature is quite 'simple' to describe. Just a wifi manager on Xbox that remembers more than 1 wifi login.
I upgraded a ps5 holy cow night and day difference
Yeah ps5 is amazing current gen console
WHAT, y'all just have extra consoles lying around , time to start a fundraiser give em all š
My son moves about between his mom and my place and it is a bit of a drag to constantly have to input the wifi password again
only thing I am not using is 360. all the other consoles are in use lol
Lol no, I have a series s and use my original black Xbox one as a movie box in my living room
I got 360, One S, One X, Series S and Series X
I'll upvote you on that one š
Made me realize how slow last gen consoles really are
I dont know if em wants them lol
It's a known request
Ah great! Hopefully that feature will come in the future then š
One s takes ages to load just Netflix
I have more Xbox consoles lying around than I can possibly use, I don't need any more
Omgg i wish my xbox remembered WiFi passwords like my Nintendo switch.
Are you hyped for Starfield
It seems I am not the only one haha
Hey guys
Iām wondering where to play starfield cause itās not coming to ps5
On the Switch it makes sense that they had the feature from day one, since it's meant to be a portable device.
But it is definitely a very useful feature as well for home consoles, especially one like the Series S being so easy to carry around.
Right ima send yall the link for , lying around console fundraiser šš
PC, Xbox, tablet, mobile...
well you dont have many options.
I dont see why they would need that most folks only ever have 1 ssid they need the xbox to know
What are you talking about
Mobile?
Exactly Anchel. My Series X isn't going anywhere fast but the Series S is much more compact and easy to take with us.
yeah stream from cloud
Via streaming
Sometimes i switch from WiFi to mobile data because mobile data is faster for downloading games
š
can even use an old Xbox One if you streaming Series games too
I use my phone if im going to play xbox on the go
I doubt one s can handle the game
But itās Cloud Gaming..
you are streaming from the datacenter its not gonna be using the device
Ohhhhh
can i use an xbox 360 to get music off a cd to a usb drive or do i need to somehow find a pc with a cd drive and WMP
Wait what
I only use Cloud to test out new Game Pass games before I decide to download or not
in a way it is very good for the environment too since old consoles don't go to waste and can be used as stream boxes
hardly go out, so I just use cloud right from the console
Yeah cloud gaming is amazing
Ye
then you got those new Samsung monitors that are going to include the gaming hub same as TV,. dont even need to plug in a console or PC
I have been using it more lately and I am happy with it. The input delay is sometimes a bit meh for first person shooters but I can deal with that
All this time in the server and you had never heard of Xbox Cloud Streaming? š
What is the name of the game in ur header?
Xcloud was the name they prob know lol
I donāt read Xbox news that much anymore
You can very quickly check it out by going to Xbox.com/play. Fortnite is free to play
Oh yea I know that
It's Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, coming out next year
I think its getting some upgrades soon unless thats already done now. like that direct-stream thing which supposed to help with latency/input etc
Wow nice
I got a little piece of crisp stuck in the top air vent thing on my Xbox one can this cause any damage?
Whatās game hub
Samsung has a hub, with cloud streaming apps built in
Whoa must be a new thing
You mean potato crisp? No it canāt cause damage to internals
vaccuum it out?
Coming in 2022 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, Stadia and Luna.
Add the game to your wishlist on: www.ubisoft.com/r/omt_FWD3_videokit
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora⢠is a first person, action-adventure game developed by Massive Entertainment ā a Ubisoft studio, in collaboration with Lightstorm Entertainment and Disney.
Built using the la...
yeah I will be playing that, will give you a review Anchel, as you working on it
Me too
Ubisoft
Yes
I think itāll be on ubisoft+
Wait that is the game? I almost looks like the movie
Yea game graphics are insane now
yeah maybe depends when Ubisoft+ actually releases. hoping for more info soon on a date
It's a trailer made with in-game graphics, not a gameplay trailer. But it does look as stunning as that.
True
I wonder what engine the game uses? It looks so good
Hm okay well let's see some real gameplay first then
Should be the case, yes
Almost died seeing demons souls remake graphics
Probably coming late this year or early next year
Ubisoft. isnt it same engine as Divisions ?
It's Snowdrop Engine. The same one used for The Division
And which will be used for the upcoming Splinter Cell remake as well
yeah I was typing Snowdrop but that didnt sound right so deleted and asked lol
Ubisoft so not excited about the gameplay
looks like a really versatile engine
an engine originally made for an FPS used for a different style game
yeah looking forward to Splinter Cell I like my Stealth games
We also made a South Park game on it, as well as Mario + Rabbids š
The new mario rabbids?
Both
Nice
Oh by the way Paul, those tabs in your xbox games menu are in the beta release now too
Yeah I saw they had an update other day
The engine has seen a huge load of improvements since The Division 1 and 2
Me
not sure I dont keep up with PC side of things
I am trying to use it more lately but... man that needs some work
Yeah it's not too good tbh
South Park The Stick of Truth or The Fractured but Whole?
majority I just scroll through Twitter, and the people I follow are more console sided so thats how I get my info
Hm okay. Don't know if they have an insider part too.
yeah that PC app was built from ground up though so things are missing still
Yeah fair enough
just asking because someone told me they use different engines, but they look the same
yeah Windows insider its called similar thing
Ah I saw that in the Windows 11 menu somewhere
Fractured but Whole
I see PC updates sometimes not as frequent like console does.
I feel like I'm breaking the rules by posting the name of that game though š
You could see bigger improvements if you deleted half of New York
#rules š© 3. Do not use profanities. Keep it clean and family friendly, do not attempt to bypass the word filter.
Amateurs
hi icky
Hey medium sized loaf of bread
Not sure if I want to enter that program though. Don't mind testing out the Xbox app there but I do want a stable Windows 11...
The Xbox app is a bit of a mixed bag for me, frequently freezing right after launching it.
But it has also seen enormous improvements everywhere really fast, so I'm hopeful it'll keep building a strong userbase.
It never froze here but the search feature in gamepass is really quite annoying. I choose shooters, click one game, go back and the filter is gone
There rings like xbox
You can pick how testy you want to get
I think we've reached the peak of how good graphics can look
Just played a game that came out in 2011, it looks just as good as something that came out this year
No one here can answer that
We definitely have not.
So many things that can still be improved in graphics, so many things that have improved since then.
A lot of the effects we see these days are achieved by some (pretty clever) smoke and mirror tricks, but never as good as if we were able to render them properly, such as waterfalls.
We've done all sort of reflections till now with those tricks, now ray-tracing is starting to allow us to achieve proper reflections.
Oh yeah, that's true
From distances the world can look good, but if you really look at things like grass on the ground or fog/smoke effects they don't look realistic
maybe over time we can get more advanced effects to make it look even more realistic
After all these years it took to actually literally just see a praying mantis to realize why it's called a praying mantis
grass and plants etc will always be difficult just like hair
I think how good graphics can look is also partially dependent on the game's artstyle
Something like Halo can look really good and have some unrealistic textures as with any game but it still holds up because of its artstyle
but if you get something like a realistic military shooter and see low-quality textures it may not hold up as much
'Want' is a strong word. More like 'try' and even then you wouldn't know. I'm sure that dude want everything.
they don't want money I guess
As with any company developing products and services, they always have a myriad initiatives going on simultaneously to reach a bigger audience.
The Baltics is probably in the list of audiences to reach, but we don't know how high up or down below it is in priority compared to the rest of their initiatives.
too bad they aren't greedy
I think it's safe to say nobody here knows what the challenges are or how much has been done
It's the same as with bugfixes in games.
Sometimes people complain "How have they not fixed X bug yet? It's such an easy one to fix!"
But they don't realize there's a huge list of other bugs to fix which probably have a higher severity and reproducibility that have to get fixed before the bug someone complains about on Twitter.
Has to be worth the investment to jump the red tape for expantoin.
a bug fix isn't just writing code. it's also planning before and testing after, often on multiple platforms
jeepers what was that
@upper wigeon don't
old games are fun too tbh
Was that an animatoin lol
for many years I couldn't even afford the latest. I was a console gen behind and I made the most of it
Of course it sucks to not be included and be allowed to play the modern games and services you want to. But there's just so many steps to get these things done.
like sure, it sucks, but there's no use in worrying about something you can't change
it's not something you can change
it's not something we here can change either
jesus Ben
stop that
Best you can do is voice your request through the appropriate channels (a Discord server ain't it)
wait
you're saying it is available?
that doesn' t track
they don't sell game discs?
if they can import the console, they can import discs
So basically PlayStation is not supported in your country either, they just don't have the same misuse prevention methods. Which could change any day, really.
More popular than what
PS is more popular everywhere tbh
Yeah but does Ps have Forza? Didnāt think so š¤š¤
Heck, in Spain, last gen Xbox was pretty much non-existent in Spain
Lol its only a short drive to get anything then
Ps doesnāt have halo
Some people don't care about Forza or Halo, but prefer the exclusive titles of other consoles.
Some people prefer Nintendo's exclusives. Some will not care for either of those.
I like switch sports and Mario tennis
Oh, so that's why they call her Kibbles
More reason to buy Xbox
The nicknames my survivors get in this name are... Quite wacky
Their whole point is that they cannot use Xbox services in their country
What country
Thatās one component
maybe PlayStation is the better choice for you then. honestly they're just as good as Xbox
nobody has said COD will be exclusive
I heard that xbox officialy said it themselfes it will be in 2025
I'm sure you won't have to worry about CoD being exclusive. They're probably planning on keeping it multi-plat, apparently
Unfortunately the best thing you can do is wait and see if Xbox services will extend to those countries.
There's been a lot of expansion into new territories lately, so there's that at least.
CoD on switch š³
There's been CoD games on Nintendo platforms before š
Stick to 1080 and you can by most any thing for cheap
I have a lot of friends in North Macedonia in the same situation, so I get that. It's annoying.
Recognize that people live in different areas, and prices are different in those said areas. Not everyone is going to be able to buy PCs at the same price as you ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Exactly. Prices vary in the US, as they would in a place like, say, Asia.
Yes, but they've already said they are not in the US. Prices for components are very likely much more expensive for them.
Heck my laptop is good at my games
Iād rather 299 xbox series s
You can build a decent 1080p pc for 700$ or even cheaper if you buy used parts
About 570 euro, yes
Dont buy a used PSU though... Not worth it
I don't live in Latvia (I live in the US), so the prices will definitely be looking different to you and I
True Iāll never buy a used PSU
I agree most pple are gunna sell it for more than what itās worth itās better to build it out of scratch
a Series X is still more powerful than a decent 1080p pc for $700
229$ for a 580 is way too much
nah mate, I don't even own an Xbox
I own a PS5
I only need two more parts for my pc
@alpine cave
We're not vouching for anything, we're only making suggestions
I have an RX 6900 XT on the way. I am hyped.
Thatās cool where is that at?
One day I'll finally buy a new GPU and finally my PC will be up to date again.
But I don't see that happening anytime soon
First time?
Itās still way too much
@vale kite pax west
AFAIK, I'm stuck behind on PC gaming. Like, way behind
First time? What do you mean?
What's your current GPU?
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Is it your first time waiting for a GPU to be available?
I meant something like "Welcome to the club" but "First time?" sounded better
Never had that happen
All I know is... This game works just fine on my PC, just like it would on a printer :P
Here in France you can find a 580 for 100-120ā¬
First time reminded me of a meme
(Joke about "Can it run DOOM" here)
Oh lol š
Nah, when I bought my PC with a GTX 1070 I did it because it was already difficult to find a newer GPU at decent prices.
Euro has the same value as the usd at the moment
I'm still rocking a 1060 6GB
still good for games
Have you tried changing the thermal paste ?
Thereās gpuās available on Facebook market but thatās a chance ur willing to take
Is the difference between 1440p and 4K a lot
Yes, but there are other factors that could make the same component cheaper or more expensive in different countries
1000 series was wicked good for its time tbh
oh good lord
never buy any electronics from FB Marketplace, eBay, or Craigslist
bunch of scammers
I usually use newegg
I mean as someone who used both
newegg isn't a reseller site though, it's like amazon but with PC stuff
stuff has to be approved y'know?
Never been scammed once on Newegg even with third party
It IS a difference, but whether or not you will notice it depends on the size of your TV/monitor and the distance at which you watch it from
Only game ive seen at pax i want to play lol wife is finding stuff lol
I wouldn't know. I never really gamed in 4K :/
I got the rx 6600xt and honestly itās a beast
Gone as far as 1080p, I think
I can only imagine what my 6900 XT is gonna do then lol
4k gaming gave me a headack
I've sold plenty of electronics in the past via Facebook Marketplace. From an electric piano keyboard to smartphones and smartwatches. The experience has always been super smooth.
But of course mileage may vary.
Hell yeah lol
Watching stuff is good. Im good with 1440 for games
Are you there rn?
I prefer FPS and refresh rate over resolution
Yup
Real gamer right here
240 Hz 1080p is still hard to drive without a powerful GPU
Resolution gives a big advantage in certain games tho
I don't care much about the performance and graphics, I just want the game to run
But the smoothness is amazing
gpu fans go woooosh
Text is crisper too
I'm not sure how powerful a 1060 6GB is now, but I can run at 240 Hz at 1080p just fine with it, across the entire OS and even in games
Ay can i link someone xbox device on my xbox app? I really want to change my nametag
Might need an upgrade soon, this PC's been using the same GPU for 4 years
becoming pretty much outdated by every year
One of the games I have uses 8 GB of VRAM in 1080p with medium graphics settings
Gamertag i mean
pride sasuage !
That's a bean though
Lol the name medium sized loaf of bread so specific
nope!
Checkmate :P
You can definitely change your gamertag. It may cost you a bit though.
All I can say isā¦. ITāS GOATIN TIME
no sir, pride breakfast sausage
Dude 10$ for a name.. like wtf
i remember changing my xbox user for free at one point
Them's the breaks, if you wanna change your name, you gotta pay the fee
You get a free 1
I used it
It's just to prevent username change abuse
So you gotta pay up if you want to change your gamertag.
The option is there. Take it or leave it.
If you don't change it that's fine. Up to you to decide how important it is for you to change it.
i mean one free name change every 3 months would be better TBH
in my op
Every year would be fine IMO
although I find that changing my username often is pretty good in my situation
Yeah they have to do this
yeah, as long as its longer then a month
Ive never paid but only ever had 3 changes in all my time
I wouldn't say they have to
Thatās just Microsoft being greedy 10 bucks for a name change is ridiculous
Nope, their service their rules.
Why would they have to? It's not like people are entitled to it.
All people want to change their name everytime they want for free
Who want to pay 10$ for a name?
It's not something that they're forced to do. If they want to change the gamertag changing rules, they can if they want, but they're not forced to do it.
Make better decisions when you pick your name then
it's literally just to prevent name-change abuse
Think about it, if it wasn't there a bunch of people would be changing their names often
nobody wants to pay 10$ but nobody should have to change it that often anyway
Itās just to make money
also it's literally $10, and if you don't change your name often it isn't much
If you don't want to pay to change your gamertag, pick a good gamertag beforehand.
Its both really
Its only 800 points lol good old days
thats not really relevant microsoft would be making just as much money if this was a feature or not
who changes their name that often? MS wouldn't make a lot of money from that
Dude u r telling me that now?
Wonder if its available in my country
more lil bro
It's common sense.
move to texas my guy šÆ
I already picked it so thats not my problem
Not that many people who feel a need to change their gamertags I imagine, but what do I know?
Fly me out then
Trust me they make a lot of money from it
aye man if i had the money i def would
Im kidding lol
uhh, no they don't
who changes their name every few weeks? not a lot of people
im not
Wha :/
probably 5% of all Xbox users change their username that often
I saw that if u linked a xbox device on the xbox app it allows u to change ur name tag for infinity times
yeah cause its 10$ lol
Texas is not a country š Had my fun living there for a year (Denton, near Dallas/Fort Worth), also been living a bit in Houston. But I definitely wouldn't move there again.
Now, see, that's marketplace fraud, my friend
I don't think it even reaches 1%
Microsoft still make millions out of it tho
i know its not š chill houston hella fun tho
Might tell them they are not lol techicly they can be tho
Pay for the change, or don't. Simple.
For frick sakes nothing is available in africa
i wanna go to africa one of these days
I mean its ok :/
my dad said it was very beautiful
no, they don't
out of name changes? that's ridiculous
I want to go to Tokyo
Itās just to make money because on pc on steam origin etc you can change your name for free and unlimited
Eh poverty and thieves
props to tom xbox using his animation for their banner
If you don't like the name change fee, maybe you should've thought of a good gamertag beforehand
...Big deal
woah
Agrees
i for one am stunned that some for-profit businesses have a feature that they make people pay for
yall wanna vc about this
?
people are reasonably understanding a multi billion dollar company being in business to make money
mic up brah
Eh maybe?
it isn't them "being greedy", you just don't understand why the fee is in place
Did you know? Businesses make money and that's their goal
nobody is forced to pay for something. gaming is an expensive luxury and nothing more
What is the bad decisions pfp, is it for people who get banned because of inappropriate pfps because so many people have them
Dont feel like it
L
Anyways, itās cool to see the pride icon return
Dude r u sureš gaming is not like this ,
Xbox made it like this
^
Well, that's what you think
Nah gaming is expensive
pretty sure.... atari was in business far before microsoft made xbox and was making billions lol
I understand that their goal is to make money thatās completely fine but 10 bucks for a name change is some bs
š
$10 isnāt that much
we've been telling you why it's there
it's to prevent abuse. and plus, if you have a job you can make more than $10 in a day
Agreed not everyone has a horrible GT
For a simple name change itās a lot
anyway
Yeah
But for changing a name? Doesn't worth it
nobody here has control of it or can change it so
for a name change? yea it is
So how's life, Penguin?
Gaming is and has always been an expensive luxury.
If anything, now it is more accessible than ever before.
outside of xbox general chat? life is good lol
i think one of my only qualms about paying for video games is how a lot of multiplayer games capitalize on fomo as an incentive to buy
Xbox has made it cheaper honestly

I really feel that this game didn't get as much attention as it deserves. Sure it wasn't that fantastic, but...
Yeah, I checked chat at a bad time huh
literally LMAO
Because that excludes non-binary people, of which there are many here
Also, funny how Google thinks this is Counter-Strike
aye i played this on 360
and before we delve into something that will probably end up in a bad way... transphobia and homophobia will not be tolerated here, and will be deleted (and thereby the person will be deleted) from the server
Bruh what lmaooooo
chill bru theyll kick ban you for talking like that š
Oh crap
yeah just keep it out da server fr

Fr fr
Non-Binary DefinedMost people ā including most transgender people ā are either male or female. But some people don't neatly fit into the categories of "man" or "woman," or āmaleā or āfemale.ā For example, some people have a gender that blends elements of being a man or a woman, or a gender that is different than either male or female. Some peopl...

nobody finna read that tbh
But some might be curious or interested
Fr
Yeah, like I'm trans MTF but just resorting me to 'Female' feels a bit off
then they would prob search it up tho (not hating)
probably important here to remind the younger folks of the server that are still in school, that it's okay that people are different from you and it makes you a bigger person to accept that rather than to try and be edgy, ignorant, or small-brained about it
lol
true
I see we are having this chat for the thousnth time
Not for someone who didn't know about it in the first place.
And that's ok. 5 years ago I didn't. One of my work colleagues shared that page with me and it helped me understand a lot better.
idk a lot of it kinda common sense now n days
I dont think this is the place to talk about thia
if you stay here long enough youll see many people do not have common sense
im banned from spotify lol
yea im talking about food now
so we strive to at least provide the resources
Is everyone here just complaining about shi no one else cares about?
Here's what I see from #general-chat right now
Most folk are abit sensitive
ššš¤·
anyways whats yall favorite food/snack while gaming?
Ive been getting randomly banned from multiple services and I don't even know why.
Hilarious comedy in #general-chat in here, huh?
they think its new material, nightshade
Oreos and grape soda
now that is interesting
šš„±š„±
Cheese cubes
highlight of chat right here
Uhm... soda?
Nothing wrong with having people learn about this topic, especially in a server like this where the frequents community tends to be very open and respectful about the topic.
California Rolls

Nope. Not even close. I suspect I have an IP address with a long history of abuse from whoever had it before me

It's a fantastic game š I still have to play the sequels / prequels.

I think I just took something into consideration. So my parents don't exactly know I'm trans but I've made so many hints to it and I've come to the conclusion that they think it's some joke and it's just kinda... lol

@cerulean basin yea, it was REALLY good. What other games are like that one you might recommend
Fr
right
they gon ban ya
šš
to them its hate speech bro
I dont think freedom of speech is a thing
not joking
Its true
Honestly, the closest thing would be some of Telltale games, but they are not necessarily of the same vibe. Lots of different universes though! From Walking Dead to Minecraft and even Batman or Game of Thrones.
Thought this was Xbox chat?
it is
This is Patrick
Nah, it's Gaming, Food, and LGBTQ+ chat now
