general-chat

[fiery python]

It just means they have a lower budget, or they don't really care about the better graphics. Still doesn't mean they're a casual gamer.

[vestal skiff]

yea I’m a series s player and I’m a try hard gamer not casual

[inner arrow]

You can have a 1080p hd tv. Why buy a 4k device for that?

[pastel jasper]

When I say casual I mean people who don't want to spend alot of money on a gaming console

And don't want some super powerful console that they won't be using for triple a games

At 4k resolution, some people just buy series s for competitive side for games like rainbow six or Fortnite at 120 fps.

[fiery python]

Which are both AAA games

[formal tundra]

True

Do u guys here play Xbox?

[pastel jasper]

Triple a like halo, rdr2, gta, etc.

[vestal skiff]

it’s a Xbox server what u think

[fiery python]

You're just making up definitions.

[pastel jasper]

Of course, I believe anyone here does.

[formal tundra]

Pc players might be here too

[pastel jasper]

Welp it's totally fine to have your own opinion y'know?

[pastel jasper]

Good point, Xbox gamepass on PC aswell.

[formal tundra]

What xbox’s do u have?

[pastel jasper]

XSX.

[vestal skiff]

I got a series s

[vale bay]

hi guys, when i enter my xbox gamepass account from pc and enter forza horizon 5, forza horizon 5 on my xbox has been reset. is there a way to fix it?

[fiery python]

Of course it is. I'm just saying your categorisation of things isn't really accurate.

[cinder veldt]

Too many

[vocal gorge]

I don't own an Xbox. PC only here

[pastel jasper]

It is, like you are comparing Fortnite to actually games that truly take advantage of the hardware.

[astral saffron]

I own a Series X but I am mostly PC these days 🙂

[pastel jasper]

that's in my opinion at the very least isn't a right comparison.

Nor rainbow six siege which came out like 8 years ago.

[fiery python]

You mean Fortnite that has ray tracing, runs at 120fps, 4K? That Fortnite which makes use of the hardware?

[astral saffron]

Not sure if you've played Fortnite recently but that thing is a beast

My decent PC can't even run it as well as the series S can tbh lol, at least consistently

[formal tundra]

Cool

[pastel jasper]

It is, I have played the current patch but it definitely isn't even optimized well on Xbox.

[vale bay]

If anyone knows, can you tell me, I worked hard for that account.

[formal tundra]

Cool

[pastel jasper]

I have played it on ps5 and series x it's quite not holding up well on series x.

[formal tundra]

I’m thinking about getting the x instead of a pc

[vale bay]

Does anyone have any information about it? I worked hard for that account.

[pastel jasper]

If you consider the lags, and stutters the game gets on series s and x a full on use of the hardware I have to disagree but once again I would like everyone to remain at their opinion to be honest.

[vocal gorge]

wait, Fortnite runs at 4K and 120Hz on console? I thought it was a case of 4K or 120Hz or ray tracing. Not able to have it all on the majority of games

[formal tundra]

Can the series s run 120 fpa at 4k?

[vestal skiff]

Idk I got a 60 fps monitor

[pastel jasper]

It runs 1080 or 1440p 120 fps on series x.

And 60 fps 4k.

[vale bay]

If anyone knows please reply

[vocal gorge]

Series S is better suited to 1440p with probably 1080p being the 120Hz sweet spot. 4K for videos though afaik

[rare badger]

So i like to cover my xbox with a dust cover when i am not using it. Today i just casually turned on my tv to watch it and it also turned on the xbox without me knowing about it. After like 20 minutes i hear a very loud fan nois fron my xbox. I immediately remove the cover and my xbox is terribly hot. I immediately turned it off. Now its cooler already and seems to work. I just wonder, is it possible that this hole thing caused some permanent damage to my xbox? Or is everything alrigth?

[vocal gorge]

heh, yeah I kinda thought that but wasn't 100% sure with what was said prior lol 😅

[pastel jasper]

I don't recommend the 120 fps mode in chapter 4, it is not optimized well by anyway

[cinder veldt]

Guess it steps down when you turn on 120 fps mode

[dusky jewel]

I having little trouble understanding the question can you say it again

[cinder veldt]

It’s not?

[pastel jasper]

Yes, and the game graphics downgrades in it aswell
You might get to 60 fps in end game competitive in the 120 fps mode.

[astral saffron]

I never had any issues with 1440p 120fps in fortnite on my series X

[pastel jasper]

Especially in the series s.

[dusky jewel]

Do you own pc gamepass or ultimate gamepass

[cinder veldt]

Guess I’m turning it off before I encounter these issues 😆

[vale bay]

I connected my xbox gamepass account to the pc and downloaded and played forza horizon 5, it made me open a new account, then when I entered the game with my xbox, I saw that my account was reset.

[pastel jasper]

You sure in chapter 4? I have seen ton of complainings about it.

Since they switched to unreal engine 5.1 or smt like that and added ray tracing the game optimization gone crazy.

[vale bay]

I have gamepass ultimate, I can log in on both platforms, calculate

[astral saffron]

Yep since chapter 4! Struggled on my PC though which should be able to do that fine

[pastel jasper]

There is problem with the optimization this chapter, especially on Xbox and pc.

Ps5 seem to be holding fine which is quite weird..

[cinder veldt]

There was a problem in the start of chapter 4 but that wasn’t on the 120fps mode

[dusky jewel]

You can switch account on Xbox.

[pastel jasper]

I hardly can hold 60 stable fps when I land at places like mega city and I'm not even playing 4k.

[vocal gorge]

I might give Fortnite a try on my PC. Not a fan of the game but so far I don't think I've played any game that supports Unreal Engine 5 so would be kind of neat to give it a try

[cinder veldt]

That’s when you load shaders first, it get’s fine after that one game tbh

[vale bay]

but it was connected to my main account, the account I played with, that is, the account I connected to the pc

[weary solar]

[pastel jasper]

Atleast in my experience that wasn't the case, but I really hope with the approach of c5 they consider focusing on optimization.

[cinder veldt]

This issue got better if anything

[shell reef]

How's everyone doing?

[pastel jasper]

But didn't solve it, and alot of series s users and some of series x are suffering heavily from it.

[balmy plaza]

Sleepy 🥱

[cinder veldt]

I admit the issue exists, but it’s like before you land you get impacted, once you have landed (even before) it’s gone

[formal tundra]

Guys does discord work on Xbox?

[cinder veldt]

It’s not related to 120fps mode tho

[dusky jewel]

It will be better if you contact Microsoft online chat, I had Trouble with gamepass few months ago and the guy I was connected to he fixed everything

[vale bay]

Can you send me a link iletişim merkezinin

[dusky jewel]

Okay hold on, they know everything about our accounts, it’s easy for them to fix problems

[pastel jasper]

It's not the case for me.

[fiery python]

https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/xboxdiscord

[pastel jasper]

Locations like mega city I'm lagging continuously as long as I'm in it.

[cinder veldt]

Okay then we have different issues, and that’s unfortunate to hear

[dusky jewel]

https://support.xbox.com/en-us/contact-us/emerald

[pastel jasper]

I get that issue in other locations but it doesn't matter much.

[pastel jasper]

I guess it might frustrating for most people, I'm mostly annoyed by stuttering so badly in mega city or similar locations.

Without even having any player walking beside me.

[dusky jewel]

Did you try chat, my friend?

[fiery python]

Yes, but you need a payment method on the account.

Yes

dude, in which language do I need to write, I wrote to support in my own language (Turkish) does it have to be only in English?

Forza support*

[cinder veldt]

what

[weary solar]

There has not been any official announcements around COD games (or any Activision games) coming to GamePass at this time. Anything you may have heard is an unfounded rumor.

The deal will still take time to finalize and existing contracts and legal agreements may need to complete or lapse before any games can come to GamePass, if they come at all. We will not know if or when games will come to GamePass until officially announced by Xbox.

[uneven river]

They are waiting for you to open your presents on Aug 17th

Why are you spamming this in multiple channels?

That’s nice. My dog loves going upstairs and under the duvet

Pretty normal that a console still would work after only 6 years

[modern oasis]

Everybody’s complaining about the new Temp V superpowers in Warzone

[idle spear]

N64 doesn’t really have any major failing points like disc drive or hdd so can last a really long time. It’s usually the disc drive that goes out first

Meanwhile I’m over here just Super Jumping up onto rooftops and hopping on people like Mario

Huh, I actually wouldn't mind using some of my MS Rewards points for this, seeing how I can't really spend them on much else

[dusky jewel]

Try your own language first, if they had Turkish customer services then it might be good for you, or else use translate app and use English

[sterile sequoia]

What will wiki do with the donated money?

[fiery python]

Run Wikipedia

im asking cause of my dad phone number

If he set the notifications allow of bank app then yes,

[fiery python]

I hope Xbox manages to get exclusive things like double XP and skins like PS had for years.

[green panther]

i would hope so!

[fiery python]

He has no right to demand 100% parity after all that time locking things to PS - and while expecting them to use PS features like haptics and triggers. Can't be 100% parity if they give extra things to PS.

[long maple]

cant wait for it to be over with, but yeah good news finally

[cinder veldt]

Xbox should totally get some perks

[lyric jetty]

gotta get the exclusive christmas skins the judge mentioned

[weary flume]

Based off this tweet I think it is safe to say the finish line is in sight.
Almost there (I hope)

[cinder veldt]

gotta get the exclusive like week early access to early access 😆

[formal tundra]

Guys

Can I open discord on Xbox using the browser?

[long maple]

Brad Smith :- "From Day One of this acquisition, we’ve been committed to addressing the concerns of regulators, platform and game developers, and consumers. Even after we cross the finish line for this deal’s approval, we will remain focused on ensuring that Call of Duty remains available on more platforms and for more consumers than ever before."

[weary flume]

Don’t forget getting entire game modes for a year before other platforms get it

[cedar sable]

GOOD MORNING XBOX, any insider leaks on when Elite Wireless Controller Series 3 comes out?

[fiery python]

Stop asking about the Elite 3

[cedar sable]

We don't discuss leaks here. If there's no official announcement, no one here has any info. And you've asked almost daily for several days.

wtf i only asked for one day

Rhinne can u come to dm’s pls

[fiery python]

No

[formal tundra]

Oh.

[cedar sable]

[hollow hawk]

good morning Xbox server

[formal tundra]

It’s ok I guess

[cedar sable]

Gamescom end of August

[cedar sable]

[long maple]

no but Xbox/Bethesda are gonna be there.. we get tons of 3rd party announcements

then we got Tokyo Game Show and Game Awards. but as Rhinne said nobody knows information just have to wait and see whats shown

[cedar sable]

oh kk, you think star citizen is a big enough release to drop a controller on?

ah kk

[lyric jetty]

star citizen and the word release don't belong in the same sentence

[fiery python]

Now we wait to see if Xbox cancels Call of Duty and launches a new IP from Activision named something like Shout of Allegiance

[cedar sable]

[lyric jetty]

Duty Calls: Dark Operations

[vast ermine]

I love Watch Dogs Legion it's so fun I finished the mission where || you have to kill Skye Larsen and Project Daybreak gets released ||

I think it's halfway through the game

[cinder veldt]

you will get to replay that in a few days after the save is lost /hj

[lyric jetty]

and then again a few days later when the new save is also lost 😆

[fiery python]

And then not get the achievement for finishing it.

[vast ermine]

That happened to me I replayed it after || I tried to shoot out the Albion mercenaries but I died and it wouldn't let me swap to another operative ||

[radiant remnant]

MWII’s theme is so underrated

[cinder veldt]

I honestly haven't played legion yet

[gray latch]

I lost a 14-hour save wheeeeeee

[lyric jetty]

I finished all of it except the perma-death play through achievement

[radiant remnant]

It’s fun-ish imo. I found it to be kinda enjoyable

[gray latch]

it's too bad because I was enjoying it up till that point

[cinder veldt]

this is one of the reasons

I already had a few issues with WD2

[cyan quiver]

what game?

[cinder veldt]

Watch Dogs Legion

[tired hare]

Hey to all. Playing far cry 6 in Xbox series s. Outside is 39c and very hot. So chilling and playing. Best Sunday 😍

[cinder veldt]

I want a little of that heat

[sage ice]

almost 70 @ 730am will be hot here today.

[cyan quiver]

yeah I quit playing watch dogs after only a few hours

[vagrant mica]

It’s been 20 degrees c here almost the entire month

[hollow hawk]

I'd just melt if I lost my 70+ hour Assassin's Creed Odyssey save tbh

[cinder veldt]

summer here is over

[cyan quiver]

those recent AC games are packed with so much bloat to the point where you feel worn out after playing for so long

pretty sure Valhalla is 100 hours long just for the story

[cerulean basin]

You can play it a lot faster if you want, but that's by going straight ahead to each main mission and nothing else

About 60 hours for the main campaign, according to How Long to Beat

[cyan quiver]

getting every trophy is just not worth it for those games

[cinder veldt]

I remember I tried some AC title, got put in some scenario that was very like for honor, couldn't stand that

[lofty rivet]

Hi guys

[arctic bobcat]

If anyon s down to play siege join vc

[weary solar]

If you're looking for someone to play with, please go to #1094715375884697600

[cerulean basin]

Sounds like you tried AC Unity, starts right out of the gate in a middle age siege (or Odyssey, starts in the middle of a war between Athens and the Spartans). In Unity it's the only case that happens in the whole game. In Odyssey... well, it happens several times, some mandatory, others completely optional, but it's once every many, many hours

[cinder veldt]

It was whatever was on gamepass, but you are saying that thing I experienced is not how the game is?

odyssey

[lyric jetty]

there's a couple points like that for main quests and conquests

but in the grand sceheme, the rest of the game is just a typical AC game

[cinder veldt]

how is a typical AC game 😛

[tired hare]

Does anyone have pic perms?

[fiery python]

Yes, but don't ask other people to post something for you.

[tired hare]

I gotta see if this pic ïs real or not i really need to know

[cerulean basin]

The all-out wars are definitely an exception in the Assassin's Creed games. When they happen, it's definitely all out with no possibility to stealth, which is a shame, but at least they don't happen too often

[tired hare]

I just need something confirmed abt gamepass

[gray latch]

use google image search to help you figure ot out

[cinder veldt]

if it's that cod pic, it's false

[tired hare]

It didn’t help

[gray latch]

!nocod

[fiery python]

Use words to find out. You can't use another person as a workaround for your lack of image perms.

[cerulean basin]

Can't you just describe what you want to ask about?

[gray latch]

dangit I need to memorize the new thingy still

[fiery python]

No one knows what will be added or when.

As the message above mentions '(or any Activision games)'

Dammit, well thank you anyways i appreciate it

[sage ice]

probably not

[mellow roost]

Probably not, unless the VR market becomes a large enough part of gaming.

[quartz vortex]

Don’t you get a movie theater environment thing when you plug a vr into an xbox or was that just a fake video

[robust spire]

Yoo I'm getting an series x with fh5 premium edition

[sullen forum]

Considering there's no way to plug any vr thing into an Xbox, that was fake

[mellow roost]

Not to mention I think PSVR is the one that does that.

[quartz vortex]

Wait PSVR generates the environment or the xbox does-

Or does it use the xbox’s hardware to do so

[mellow roost]

No, you misunderstood, there's no way to use a PSVR on an Xbox.

[sage ice]

PSVR does not work on Xbox

I absolutely understand the problem people have with an allistic person playing a non-allistic (the antonym is filtered 😅) person. Truly, I get it. I don't have a problem with that particular stance.

The second people start attacking certain character traits is when it starts going quickly into hate and ableist territory. It's like making fun of a certain orange person for being overweight, it ends up unintentionally attacking everyone else that shares his body type.

Yeeees, Mort? 😄

[quartz vortex]

I feel the same way as kylie, these types of memes are really annoying for me to see

[limpid flicker]

Yeah, people use that word as an insult online... if I guessed what just happened right.

[wicked stag]

My therapist had told me that I’m in the spectrum. Not fully autism but on that spectrum

[tardy radish]

My firm at work do memes in the financial department they’re actually quite funny, “how do you do kids” moment.

[wicked stag]

Like not the whole package but apart of it. I haven’t got officially diagnosed but now when I think about it. It makes sense

[cinder veldt]

I personally don't have an issue with the casting of Freddie as Shaun as the show doesn't represent it in a bad way, it's what other people can tend to do that makes it bad, but that's my take

[fiery python]

People with autism are generally not 'the whole package' because it's not generally a package deal. That's why it's a spectrum. You fall somewhere within that spectrum.

[wicked stag]

This

[cinder veldt]

that tbh

[quartz vortex]

Yup

[gray coral]

I’m late to this conversation, what’s happening now?

[fiery python]

I realise calling someone 'not a whole package' has negative assocations too, but that's not the context I was implying there.

[wicked stag]

So when I thought about school and social cues. It clicked and I realized it all made sense

[wicked stag]

No no your alright I was just confused on what to call it.

[quartz vortex]

I understand what you mean rhinne

[mellow roost]

Yeah, these types of things are definitely helpful for people, because at the end of the day, if we don't have the words for what we're experiencing, we're never gunna learn what it all means.

It's why I didn't know I was trans until I was 25. I literally didn't know the words. I didn't know how to explain how I was going through life. None of it made any sense with the words I had. It wasn't until one of my previous friends came out and we discussed it, and then I started talking with my now-partner about it, that I realized this is what I was the whole time.

[winter forum]

Anyone watching Tennis?

[limpid flicker]

Society does not tell folks that trans is something they might be.

[wicked stag]

when I look back at the moments I had with social cues and awkwardness. It all clicked

[gray coral]

My dad is now watching every Wimbledon highlight the second he gets the chance.

[winter forum]

12 deuces 💀

[wicked stag]

I literally felt in that school environment that I’m being treated differently by peers and not in a good way.

[winter forum]

There are many high functioning people in society that might not even have "traits" unless they're in fairly specific situations

[limpid flicker]

AFAIK the "functioning" labels are deprecated now.

[winter forum]

Sorry

What's the preferred term?

[mellow roost]

High and low support needs.

[winter forum]

[quartz vortex]

Ngl I sometimes do some weird af noises

Like, just randomly

[wicked stag]

Ever since I saw this emote in a twitch chat I be randomly saying Hooray now

It’s so funny and goofy.

[mellow roost]

That's not exactly a trait specific to autism as far as I'm aware (I could be wrong here), but echolalia is definitely a trait for sure.

[winter forum]

Wife noticed it with me when we were on holiday sat with a huge group of strangers I didn't want to speak to at all, so I just started making bird noises so they'd leave me alone. Certainly not neurotypical behaviour

[quartz vortex]

Yeah i also have ADHD (i have been diagnosed to have it) as well

[mellow roost]

If you find yourself hearing a sudden noise and then repeating it (say someone rings a bell and you weren't expecting it and you go, "ding!"), then yeah that could be a sign, but it could also be separate.

I'd go get yourself tested if you're interested to know.

[cinder veldt]

okay finally off overwatch, now time to build the want to hop onto fortnite

[mellow roost]

I have echolalia pretty hard. 💀

[fiery python]

I do that all the time

[astral saffron]

Were the bird noises good? I know that's not the important part of the story lol but I've always been jealous of people who can make those amazing bird calls 😅

[wicked stag]

Same thing with me. I did things without thinking at school. Had a close friend who turned out to be a narcissist. I told them I could be on the spectrum and instead just forgot what I said.

[cinder veldt]

that's human behaviour ain't it? don't all do it? right?

[winter forum]

Some friend

[quartz vortex]

Like i sometimes just do the weirdest sounds that could ever come out of my mouth, like at complete random

[wicked stag]

Once I got comfortable I did things to where I wasn’t socially aware because of the chaotic environment

[limpid flicker]

While we're on the topic of brain stuff, lately I'm faced with a real scary prospect.

[cinder veldt]

I would do it for the reason, eh I felt like it

[winter forum]

They were terrible

[wicked stag]

It’s why I had usually lashed back with vulgar stuff cause the environment taught me it was Normal

[quartz vortex]

Yeah i think thats why I do it

[limpid flicker]

I think my memory is declining alarmingly fast, and I'm wondering if it means anything. I ain't young anymore.

[quartz vortex]

Like i just go “HUUURRRGH” out of nowhere

[astral saffron]

Aww 😦

[mellow roost]

...Uhh. 😅

[quartz vortex]

Thats my most used one

If i could send a recording of it i would

[wicked stag]

So when this teacher said “bud your going to places people aren’t going to” it made me feel weird because he tried acting like a father figure. Than always said I expected better from you. But never expected better from the people who provoked me

But now that’s the past. Buried.

[gray coral]

I’d get that checked out if i were you.

[mellow roost]

Let's just say I've seen a whole lot less neurotypical people do it than I have neurodivergent.

That being said, not all of it is autism as I said before. ADHD and autism appear to share very specific traits that could be signs of either (or neither).

[minor herald]

Can someone ELI5 how Xbox won this deal? Sony keeps Cod n Xbox gets……

[wicked stag]

I’m neurodivergent and ADHD

[fiery python]

Xbox gets the money from CoD

[sage ice]

Xbox gets the money from the sales of COD on PS

[cinder veldt]

It would be logical if it's part of ADHD on my end tbh

[fiery python]

These deals don't need to all be about exclusives.

[quartz vortex]

I have both of those lol

[limpid flicker]

I sorta want to, but the NHS is overwhelmed right now. If you're not dying, good luck getting seen.

[fiery python]

Yeah, it won't be a fast assessment on the NHS

[limpid flicker]

Also, suppose they tell me "Yep, that's a thing. You're losing marbles fast."
Great. Good. Glad to know. 😭

[sage ice]

PS users will probably also see the Xbox logo when booting the COD games 😉

[astral saffron]

Honestly until something starts causing me grief I never get it checked out. I'm sure there's probably something not so hot about me but until it becomes a concern I'm going to just keep going as I am

[fiery python]

I'm still waiting for my ADD/ADHD assessment. I was told the waiting list was 18 months. Several months into the wait I got a letter saying they were backed up and it would be around 3 years minimum.

[wicked stag]

Vice versa I remember things as a preschooler

[quartz vortex]

Oh i know some people would be angry, i’ll love their overreactions of anger

[minor herald]

I hate exclusives, I really want to play Wolverine when it comes out but I am not buying another system for 1 game

[limpid flicker]

TBH now that most of the PS5 games I wanted are also on PC I'm feeling like maybe I should have just... IDK. I don't entirely regret having PS5, but you know? At the time I made my purchase it seemed less certain that would happpen.

[mellow roost]

I'm cautiously looking forward to Wolverine (I don't have a PS5 though), mainly because I really like the older Wolverine games but they're just... I don't know. There's something weird about them that I can't put my finger on that just makes them fall a little short.

[quartz vortex]

I also have a weird laugh where i go “HYUH HYUH HYUH”

But like, in a strange voice

[minor herald]

I would never regret having both after the fact

[mellow roost]

Best way I can describe it is... Remember when Marvel movies were really dark and kinda dreary for no reason back in the early 2000s? Like the movies straight up feel like they're struggling with depression or something.

Yeah the Wolverine games feel the same way to me.

I'm kinda worried it'll have that same...weird feel to it.

If you mean xbox live parties… …find better friends buddy (sorry if it seems insulting but it’s right)

[tired hare]

no, I would like to have live with more or less good quality, so I would like good live parameters to have no jerks

[quartz vortex]

Impossible, you can’t filter exactly who will show up on your xbox live parties

[fiery python]

You can set them to friends only.

[tired hare]

no, but like having a good live quality, like the lives on youtube where there is no bug or at least no big bug

I'm talking about twitch lives

[fiery python]

So streaming to Twitch.

And jerks you mean lag/stuttering, rather than people acting like jerks?

[quartz vortex]

OHHHHH sorry lol i’m dumb

Wired connection and get better internet.

Playing Dragon Age Origins rn. Its nice that this game is on EA Play, and by extension GP Ultimate

[tired hare]

no no no, I'm talking about bugs on lives, pixelization for example

[sullen forum]

So while watching someone's stream?

[trail harness]

pixelization can happen when quality drops to connection issues, either on the stream end or your own

[tired hare]

no, doing my own live

[sullen forum]

Either way, all this comes down to needing better internet, both on the streamer end and the viewer end

[trail harness]

Eliminating wireless will help if you can

[sullen forum]

If you're streaming, you need higher upload rate. Pixelation happens when the bitrate isn't high enough to handle rapid motion

[red flame]

Yo I just got banned from the apex sever

[fiery python]

ok?

[sullen forum]

And if your upload isn't high enough to handle the bitrate, you'll also get stream lags / pixelation

[red flame]

For racism 😼

[tired hare]

I have a cable connection, rj45 cables, do you know?

[red flame]

But I’m black

[trail harness]

Reducing resolution of the stream can help too if you can

[fiery python]

Black people can still be racist

[gray latch]

dont be racist then

[shrewd cargo]

I get that sometimes

[sage ice]

but if your internet is slow, ethernet wont make it better.

[fiery python]

But we don't want to know about drama from other servers, so move on.

[tired hare]

Ethernet category 8 for example, the best performance. less bug in ethernet

[fiery python]

Doesn't matter if the connection itself isn't good enough.

So if I have a good internet connection, everything will be fine?

[fiery python]

You can put the best tyres on a crappy car. Still gonna break down.

Gawd why do we even bother to answer questions properly

MW2019 worked when I wanted to un/install something specific

[fiery python]

It should be fine.

[sinful oar]

too polite perhaps

[astral saffron]

Halo Infinite does nothing when I try to install the campaign 🤷

[tired hare]

Are all the cods on gamepass now guys?

[tired hare]

so with my internet connection I could stream without any lag or loss of fps or pixelation?

[fiery python]

But next time, think about how you phrase the question. You made it sound like you were having problems and how to fix them. Not if it would work fine.

[weary solar]

There has not been any official announcements around COD games (or any Activision games) coming to GamePass at this time. Anything you may have heard is an unfounded rumor.

The deal will still take time to finalize and existing contracts and legal agreements may need to complete or lapse before any games can come to GamePass, if they come at all. We will not know if or when games will come to GamePass until officially announced by Xbox.

[cinder veldt]

Mine was complete chaos eventually, in the start it was fine but then they changed the packs like 2 times and you had to eventually just chance which packs were correct, and the incorrect one would make the game crash

[winter forum]

Rules are don't spam and don't lead users astray (paraphrasing)

[fiery python]

No. There is always a chance of it lagging or pixellating, no matter your connection.

[astral saffron]

Oh I never had that issue personally.

[quartz vortex]

No

[cinder veldt]

lucky, you were playing on xbox I assume?

[fiery python]

The better your internet connection, the less likely you are to have the issues, but it's still possible. It's also dependent on the viewers connection, so even if you're stream is fine, they may see pixellation their side if their internet is not very fast.

[sinful oar]

well i know the rules, I was just supposing why people bother to give proper answer

[astral saffron]

MW19 I was, but Infinite on PC

[tired hare]

I'm more on my side

[cinder veldt]

ah okay, well glad you didn't have issues with MW19, I unfortunately did, but luckily got a install that works on an external HDD, if that install is gone I'm not reinstalling

A lot of people also watch YT/ Netflix etc on their xbox so it could be nice to connect a pair of bluetooth headphones for listening

[sullen forum]

The console does not have a BlueTooth radio in it

[fiery python]

A lot of smart TVs let you connect via blueooth though

[vagrant mica]

Yeah, that is a good thing. I think mine may have the capability

[limber carbon]

This Ceberus heatwave is a nightmare 🧯 😩

[cinder veldt]

want to share some?

[vagrant mica]

Didn’t the switch get bluetooth capability through an update?

[limber carbon]

Trade for some rain?

[cinder veldt]

I got rain coming all next week and today, you can have a few days

[vagrant mica]

I don’t want any 40 degree weather 🥵

[tacit robin]

were having tranchell rain

[limber carbon]

I'll trace Monday and Thursday if possible

[vagrant mica]

It’s been like a solid 20 every day this month in the UK

but a lot of rain

[cinder veldt]

I will look into it

[winter forum]

I found some info on the controller protocol but not sure if it violates rule 12? It's been reversed, though

[cinder veldt]

there is a risk it won't be physically accepted since swedish summer is over for a few weeks now

[upper galleon]

how can i send a screenshot??

[limber carbon]

That's in Italy and Spain at the moment.
I think a lady has lost her life due to the insane heatwave.
It was 36°C in Vienna yesterday and I lost all my mood to go to the asia market to get some ingredients.

[fiery python]

Info is in the #rules

I read earlier that Italy is facing potential temperatures of 49 celcius.

[limber carbon]

Yup, and potentially up to 60 degrees in several reports, which is just bonkers

[idle spear]

Wow I found 40 completely unbearable

[vagrant mica]

I am going to Sicily in 4 weeks so I hope it isn’t that hot then

[tacit robin]

anything above 32 I like NO.

[chrome delta]

Question, can I use an Xbox 360 controller with the Xbox series S?

[sullen forum]

No

[winter forum]

Essentially though it's an extended version of 802.11a which ticks all the boxes for short range, high bandwidth, low power, low latency. Frames were extended out of protocol spec to support faster pairing and button specific frames. Audio streaming is a grey area though but wouldn't be hard to figure it out

[vagrant mica]

At least I will have AC as staying in a villa

[fiery python]

Only if you do remote play on Windows.

[fiery python]

Once it hits 20, I'm done with it. I like it 10 or below.

[sage ice]

Or get this one https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/xenon-wired-controller

[tranquil heart]

can i link my psn to my ea account that has EA play because of gamepass ultimate?

[chrome delta]

Bruh, I was to see if I could do it, reason: play call of duty against my dad

[limber carbon]

Serbia is quite warm today as well.

[fiery python]

Not to get EA Play, no.

[astral saffron]

I like 25-30 but I'll take over 30 too

[fiery python]

If you want EA Play on PS, you buy it on PS.

[inner arrow]

All I see is red high heels there lol

[tranquil heart]

damn

[vagrant mica]

I am also one for wearing shorts in the winter

[fiery python]

I was wearing shorts up to November last year.

[tranquil heart]

fifa 23 is so unoptimized on pc its not even funny

[limber carbon]

#Drag4Life 😄

[fiery python]

I've been wearing shorts since Feb or March this year.

[chrome delta]

Also your allowed to ping me, just don’t spam it

[vagrant mica]

90% of my wardrobe is t-shirts and shorts lol. I only really have chinos and shirts for work

[chrome delta]

My sister got me a lightsaber last night

Now I can duel other fans

[fiery python]

I’m from the grim North West of the UK, now living down South. I’m used to the cold and it’s too warm here.

[vagrant mica]

I’ve been seeing a lot of lightsaber shorts on YT recently

[chrome delta]

I only make halo, call of duty and Minecraft content

[fiery python]

We’re also middle floor apartment, so sandwiched between two other apartments which makes ours warmer.

[inner arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/hot-gif-22816162

[tranquil heart]

does anyone here play fifa on pc

[vagrant mica]

I live in South west so it isn’t as hot as the east

[limber carbon]

I think I need one of these soon

[inner arrow]

Same Simon... Same

[cinder veldt]

Not me

[vagrant mica]

I have a dyson fan but it wasn’t worth. I now have a split AC in my room

[mellow roost]

I didn't even know his existed. Is this the first time something like this has been a thing for a game?

Like, usually the extra goodies are stuff you've needed to claim on the website, not something you could access from the console.

[sage ice]

I have seen that in a few other games.

[sullen forum]

Nope, Japan's been doing it with some of their games for years

[limber carbon]

I just need something to ventilate the air in my room.
It's stuffy as I have the afternoon sun shining in and it's a nightmare.

[mellow roost]

Interesting!

[tacit robin]

Avatar as a art book digital too

[vagrant mica]

It cost me like £1750 to get ac installed. I think it’s worth long term

[limber carbon]

Oh, Midnight Suns is 60% off 🙈

[winter forum]

I've got portable AC which is still worth it

[sullen forum]

Sekiro is the one I can think of off the top of my head, but I know there are others that have done that

[vagrant mica]

yeah, any type of ac is worth over a fan. I learnt the hard way

[sullen forum]

I think Sekiro was a JP exclusive though

[winter forum]

Fan and AC is better than just AC though too

[cinder veldt]

I'm lucky to have my gaming stuff in a basement, at least in one house

[vagrant mica]

Some acs do have a fan mode but mainly the in built units

[silk vault]

Hallo

[winter forum]

Split system AC is on the list of house changes eventually

[vagrant mica]

Yeah, it is worth imo. Next year is supposedly gonna be one of the hottest years in recent history

[winter forum]

Oh I'm expecting over 40 next year

[tranquil flame]

Hey quick question. It says I can get gamepass for $1 but still charges me $15

[tacit robin]

its for new members

[vagrant mica]

It did charge me £1 again this time for some reason

[tranquil flame]

Figured lol I never claimed that when it was available awhile back

[tranquil flame]

Lucky

Doubt they will buy Ubisoft

[winter forum]

They're buying EA

[tranquil flame]

All though I do think it was dumb for a separate subscription for Ubisoft+

[cinder veldt]

it makes sense tho

[sage ice]

or just play games and not worry about who they may or may not try to buy?

[tranquil flame]

Sorta but $17 a month and can you even have both gamepass and ubisoft+

[vagrant mica]

I do like buying game pass in bulk, don’t have to worry about it for next 2 years now

[tacit robin]

Sure that be nice, but after the last 18 months I think they should just foces now on what they have and deliver great games

[cinder veldt]

ubisoft+ alone costs basically this price, and don't forget we already got ea play

[tacit robin]

you can have to much of a good thing

[tranquil flame]

Ubisoft doesn’t stick with there games. They can make a decent game then absolutely abandon it after a year or 2 or have a good version of one game then make a 2nd and absolutely ruin the title

[vagrant mica]

I hope xdefiant does well

[cinder veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/watch-dogs-legion-gif-26388747

[tranquil flame]

That had to be the worst watchdogs

Sure they could probably purchase multiple if they truly invested in them

[versed swan]

when it has a market share waaaay too big to ignore

[sage ice]

when they buy Sony and Nintendo

[sinful oar]

sega

[vagrant mica]

I don’t think gaming is the sector Microsoft are anywhere near a monopoly in. Have people just forgotten about windows

[sinful oar]

but i'd like for them to build new successful franchises instead of buying the success of already established ones

[sinful oar]

Can't forget the Netscape vs Internet Explorer case

[dense otter]

someone help in #1091756150644555946 please

Spider-Man should be on Xbox

Agreed

Honestly I’m thinking about getting an Xbox but there are some games like Spider-Man that are holding me back

[broken aspen]

hello

[mellow roost]

Wait did I typo that or something? What happened? 💀

[formal tundra]

1000%

[summer magnet]

KYLIE

😂

[formal tundra]

honestly I might just get an Xbox instead of a pc if there was dc games

Especially Batman

[vagrant mica]

pc has everything xbox has

Only reason I play console is because the amount of cheating on PC is way higher.

[formal tundra]

Yeah they should

@haughty saddle do u have an Xbox?

Hogwarts legacy is on Xbox right?

[sage ice]

yes

[formal tundra]

Yeeee

What edition ?

[mellow roost]

Yeah I really don't think Ubisoft is a target, unless Microsoft wants to have this whole 2 year thing happen all over again.

Ubisoft is humongous. Maybe not as big as ABK, but yeah no.

As for WB Games, I thought they gave up on selling?

[sullen forum]

It has been a very LONG process since we announced intent to purchase ABK, to get to today. It costs a LOT of money. It will take a LOT of time to integrate their studios in with us as a company to the extent that we choose to

Microsoft as a whole has been cutting costs this year, we've laid off people, but also have to continue on this deal because of the progress and work that has been done over the last 2+ years and agreements in place.

Don't expect any more studio acquisitions

[broken aspen]

playstation rent marvel rights what does that mean?

oh i see

so they pay rights for like a subscription

what do u mean if they bought wb games, does that mean warnerbros games?

like mortal kombat 1

[mellow roost]

I mean they wouldn't have lost money on Batgirl if they just released the damn movie.

[lilac forge]

sunday funday

[vagrant mica]

I do hope Microsoft helps make COD greater than it currently is

[cinder veldt]

there is other games that would need a lift

[lilac forge]

what bad about it now i havent played it since cod ww2

underrated cod imo i see no one talk about it

[vagrant mica]

Well, this year has had barely any content

[lilac forge]

damn wtf they should atleast add something

[sullen forum]

No, it really is about cost cutting to raise the stock price.

[cinder veldt]

my image wasn't good enough 🥹

[fiery python]

You're talking to an Xbox employee.

[mellow roost]

It was just the first one I found, I'm sorry. 😭

[cinder veldt]

re send?

[mellow roost]

Oh lmao, that's basically what I described earlier. I didn't know someone actually went and drew it.

[lilac forge]

thou shall not disagree with xbox employee

[cinder veldt]

I didn't draw it, but I found an almost too good to be true image

[mellow roost]

Nice!

Anyone who knows can't say, and anyone who can say doesn't know.

[lilac forge]

possible chance

[fiery python]

https://www.windowscentral.com/phil-spencer-activision-games

[mellow roost]

Oh.

[vagrant mica]

Has anyone noticed that you cannot message a lot of users on twitter anymore because the default setting is set to “only allow verified users”

[summer raven]

feels like cod become brand in some countries.

[mellow roost]

They should make Crash and Spyro on Unreal Engine. /j

[shell garden]

bring banjo back

[vagrant mica]

I used to be an Activision Ambassador. I miss that

[lilac forge]

damn what happened

[vagrant mica]

Program is gone now

This was the jacket I got

[cinder veldt]

that's actually really cool

[lilac forge]

mmm fresh

[vagrant mica]

I love it, I wear it a lot.

[lilac forge]

isnt there an xbox ambassador program or something i heard about it on tiktok

[vagrant mica]

there is

[lilac forge]

im gonna go check it out

[vagrant mica]

https://ambassadors.microsoft.com/

I used to be in the program but I am not anymore

[lilac forge]

damn what happened

seems pretty easy to join ngl maybe just the age thing for most people since you cant change that hahaha

[vagrant mica]

Just wasn’t that interested in participating anymore

Was a lot of effort and I didn’t really have the time after I got a full time job and I also moderate 2 discords

[lilac forge]

oh wow

[halcyon stratus]

People you follow can still@message you

[vagrant mica]

Yeah, it’s just interesting that they would make it a default setting. Do not understand why you have to pay money to be a verified user (it should be separate from twitter blue)

[halcyon stratus]

My default is “anyone who follows you”

I’ve never touched the setting:

[lilac forge]

sucks you cant use twitter without an account now i cant even see the tweets my friends send me now 🤣

[tired hare]

What is up with the new game pass thingy?

[vagrant mica]

interesting, maybe it’s only some accounts then.

[night rapids]

How was it a lot of effort? They require nothing from you

[vagrant mica]

It was a lot of effort to earn the rewards

[night rapids]

I think it only changed if you had from anyone, it went to verified only

[vestal hedge]

Just started playing tomb raider really enjoying it

[quasi echo]

is it possible to see $99.99 as a base price triple A games in the future

[sage ice]

yes

[night rapids]

Of course

[tacit robin]

anything is possible

[idle spear]

Not anytime soon but yeah one day

[quasi echo]

When that happens buying 5 games would be the same as a new console

[tame marsh]

is the series s worth it

[idle spear]

Console prices will be higher by that point anyway

[quasi echo]

Depends. If you have any discs than NOPE.

[sage ice]

if you want to play current gen games at a great price point, yes the series s is worth it

[tame marsh]

it’s 120fps right?

[quasi echo]

nope thats da X

[idle spear]

Some games can do it

[sage ice]

if you are worried about performance, the series X is the better option

[hollow hawk]

60FPS is just fine for me

[tame marsh]

doesn’t it run 120fps in majority games tho

i’m not tryna spend that much for the series X

that’s why i’m getting the S

[sage ice]

if you are wanting 120fps, you should go the X, the S wont do 120 on as many games. performance = higher cost.

[tame marsh]

i’m just tryna play next gen madden tbh

[vagrant mica]

Yeah, it doesn’t run 120fps on a LOT of games

[sage ice]

the S will be fine. Just dont except the same performance as the X will get

[tame marsh]

as long as i’m playing next gen i’ll be fine

[tired hare]

Are there any girls here who will help me with my girl problem

[sage ice]

what is your girl problem?

[tired hare]

Friend me then I’ll tell you

[tame marsh]

will my monitor help my gameplay i have a 144hz

[sage ice]

too sus

144hz over HDMI or displayport?

[cinder veldt]

always the "check your dms" and "friend me bro" never #general-chat 😭

[tame marsh]

HDMI

[tired hare]

Hey this girl I know wanted to be with me and we were but she never told me she was still with her bf I told someone and he told her bf and now she won’t even be besties with me add me and I’ll add you ti a chat with her and me and you get her back to be my bestie again

[halcyon stratus]

dang

[cinder veldt]

oof unfortunate

[tame marsh]

quit chasing her, let her come to you

[sage ice]

She is with someone else. Really unless she breaks up with them, I would not persue her.

[tired hare]

@tame marsh she likes me tho

[tame marsh]

if she wants you she will come to you

[sage ice]

You do not want to be with someone that would cheat on their partner.

[tired hare]

She was with me because she asked me if I wanted to be with her I said yes and now today I got told she was still with her bf

[tame marsh]

You don’t wanna be that guy who is chasing the same girl all the time

[halcyon stratus]

okay, jokes over

[tame marsh]

How old are you

[halcyon stratus]

You need to speak with a professional, not with randoms on discord at this point

[limber carbon]

Do not ask for personal information please.

[halcyon stratus]

Dunno what country you are in, but ther eare similar services in other countries: https://988lifeline.org/chat/

[tired hare]

I’m 14 she’s 13

[unborn isle]

wtf is going on here

[sage ice]

at 14, you really shouldnt be focusing on bf/gf type relationships.

[unborn isle]

fax

[limber carbon]

What are we playing today? It's too hot for me now, but maybe I'll play AC IV Black Flag 360

[fiery python]

@tired hare End of topic, please. This is not a discussion for here.

[cinder veldt]

I want to play fortnite, but I'm not quite there yet, just sitting at the lobby screen atm

[limber carbon]

Don't tell me because it's raining too much 😜

[tame marsh]

Fornite will run 120FPS on the series s i’m pretty sure

[cinder veldt]

it's quite nice outside atm surprisingly

[limber carbon]

The temperature is slowly dropping

So, it's finally time for games

[jagged mesa]

Guys do all 360 games work on series X if I have the disc? I wanted to buy Tekken tag tournament 2

[fiery python]

Not all, no.

https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/games/backward-compatibility

[cinder veldt]

removes text

[formal tundra]

Hey pals

[jagged mesa]

IT'S COMPATIBLE

[tired hare]

Hey 😢

[jagged mesa]

We're so back

[cinder veldt]

okay I'm actually doing it now, I'm going to play the game and not sit in the lobby

[dark sparrow]

Me who has no idea what to play rn be like

[limber carbon]

Take a coin and flip it

[cinder veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/me-enter-chat-gif-23706181

[vagrant mica]

As a destiny player, this is relatable

[jagged mesa]

Play hypnospace outlaw, super underated game (it's on gamepass)

[dark sparrow]

Its more that out of the 22 playable games I have installed, I'm not sure which one to play

[sage ice]

hit the surprise me button

[vagrant mica]

black ops 2 still has a lot of cheaters, damn.

[cinder veldt]

Sometimes it’s fine tho

[halcyon stratus]

i think the surprise me button got moved and hidden... like it is in some dumb place like "load all games, apply sometfilters, press backspace, then scroll down 2 screens, and it is there"

[dark sparrow]

Just have to click the filter button

[halcyon stratus]

see, hidden!

don't put buttons in dropdowns!

[cinder veldt]

Okay I should actually swap over to my series x for fortnite, one x actually starting to tax this season which is fair

[dark sparrow]

Good idea tbh

[tired hare]

Still depressed what’s good guys

[soft lake]

What the heck? Fortnite actually didn’t bug out on me when I started it with quick resume

[cinder veldt]

That moment when I just want to pair my controller but end up opening the troubleshooting menu

[cinder veldt]

Wait really? That’s a first

[winter forum]

Wife and I finished A Way Out
The ending was quite disappointing

[cinder veldt]

Also how funny I must look when I install games on gamepass knowing I won’t play
