[errant barn]

I saw my brother have that.

[lethal sage]

and also what’s a good ssd for xbox series s max budget like 150

[errant barn]

It's stuck like that now.

[night rapids]

Now people can stop asking how to get the new one

[long maple]

well of course its the new one lol. everyone gets it

[errant barn]

I didn't get it.

[halcyon stratus]

Now they can start complaining about wanting an old one again!

[long maple]

literally read the post above.. its out for everyone starting today.

[twin fractal]

Hey guys! It's there a way to put personaliced backgrounds in Xbox Series? I would like to put one of Callisto Protocol or Dead Space

[cinder veldt]

The gold to gamepass ultimate rates (unsubbed) was 3:2 right? If so how would I calculate 3 months to that, I suck at math and know some people here got stuff by heart

[long maple]

I didnt think it would be so quick for public to get the dash, but here we are. congrats to the team, I been using it for ages now its very good

basically if you had 90 days I think you lose like a whole month

[twin fractal]

Oh wait

[long maple]

yeah louie posted :-

[night rapids]

3:2 would be 3 months to 2 months

[twin fractal]

The new dash it's out???? Ow!! How do i get it???!?!

[errant barn]

Search up "On a scale of 1 to one, how one is 1?"

[twin fractal]

What do i do, help JAJSJASJ

Gosh i should read the manual one day ;-

[long maple]

just have to wait for update I think. or you could restart console

[twin fractal]

Oh, thanks paul!

[long maple]

its rolling out now, all I did was restart but I am in Alpha-Skip had it for months

[twin fractal]

virtual hug

[vagrant mica]

no

[night rapids]

Restart and if it's not there check for updates. It may be rolling out over that day and not instant for everyone

Guess I was wrong about people not asking Paul😂

[long maple]

lol

[idle spear]

I'm glad that huge out of place search bar at the top is gone now. Looks much better just having them as buttons

[vocal gorge]

ratchet and clank rifts apart on PC. Cranking everything to the highest setting (and there are a lot of settings). Lets go! 😄

[cinder veldt]

Thank you, now just to decide if I should do a conversion since gamepass is $1

[long maple]

I still dont like all the Game Pass stuff the further you scroll. but I use the " recently added" when it shows up. cause sometimes after a restart the tiles change to something else.

[cinder veldt]

I save almost $20

[idle spear]

Shame no ray tracing on AMD cards atm. Guess that will come sooner than later

[vagrant mica]

my gamepass was £1 the other week when I upgraded

And I had already used the £1 deal before as well

[cinder veldt]

It’s something that can come back, but tbh I’m going to the store to get a 3 month card probably

[lyric jetty]

not always

[vagrant mica]

I had done it over 3 years ago so maybe that’s why

[cinder veldt]

It’s a deal that can come back yeah, but this is the first time it’s been back for me personally since it was 3 months long ago

[vagrant mica]

nice

I am set until August 2025 with game pass ultimate

[fleet mason]

guys I've been having a problem lately in minecraft bedrock, whenever I try to speak it says I'm unable to because of how my Microsoft account is setup. No matter how hard I've tried I wasn't able to fix it so I have came here to ask for help

[vagrant mica]

#1091756150644555946

[fleet mason]

thanks

[valid vine]

hello, got a question is it possible to add mods on cyberpunk 2077 xbox series s?

[lyric jetty]

no

[vocal gorge]

I'm not too bothered about that tbh. Looks and runs great on my system as is at 4K maxed settings

[tired hare]

Brooo I have the xbox dashboard

[lyric jetty]

yeah it started rolling out to everyone

[digital hedge]

Hey

[balmy coral]

hi

[fallow moat]

The new dashboard is rockin

[sullen forum]

FYI for everyone, while we are rolling out the new dashboard to our general audience today, see this note from the article:

We’re currently rolling the new Home experience out to a subset of all Xbox consoles. This means that some customers will need to wait a few weeks to get their hands on it.

so not everyone will get it today

[night rapids]

Thanks for pointing that out Laura

[stoic blaze]

new xbox homepage is out?

[sage ice]

Everyone at one time would kill the distro servers

[somber skiff]

How can I get a update

[sage ice]

Read 4 posts up

[sullen forum]

Your console will already be running the latest update. If you aren't seeing the new dashboard, you'll need to wait, we are only rolling out to a subset of our general audience right now, it's coming over the next few weeks, it just started today.

[red gale]

Any got new got homepage i havent got it im xbox one s

[red gale]

huh weeks?

[sullen forum]

Yes, weeks

[red gale]

jeez

[halcyon stratus]

like sand through the hourglass...

[soft lake]

I admittedly liked the old dashboard

I don’t get the obsession with needing to see a BACKGROUND, if you want to look at the picture, download it

Then there is a perfect app to look at it with

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/right-on-cue-carrie-mathison-claire-danes-homeland-on-cue-gif-16409466

[steady spindle]

Anyone know why my series S controller is moving so fast on every button i try to press?

[halcyon stratus]

that's the first time I've ever seen someone complain about not having input lag

[true plinth]

Well I didn't win last night but had lots of fun got two packs and decided to open my stockpile as it was over 50 packs now... Lots of sorting to go.

[halcyon stratus]

did you put up some good fights?

[true plinth]

I had a 46 damage combo on the last turn of the night due to time limit.

[halcyon stratus]

okay magic has changed... i used to be happy if I hit for 6, lmao.

but congrats on having fun!

[surreal hamlet]

If you mean on the dashboard, it might think that there is a button still pressed down

[true plinth]

Well the combo works as I had a card that when ever I get a phyrexian I get a second which was a flying 3/3/. Then. I created 5 2/2 phyrexians that turned to 10
Then. Next turn all my creature get +1/+1 and double touch .

So I had 10 3/3 double touch and a 4/4 flying double touch..

[somber skiff]

Can someone show me how it look new dash board

[sage ice]

Check Xbox wire

[rare lance]

how do you manage home now on the console? want to put back all my groups and organize them while flushing out all the added stuff i don't want

[winter forum]

Pfrt, look at this mess of inconsistency! Need a refund, completely unplayable!

[halcyon stratus]

or like anything on twitter today with the 'xbox' hash tag lol

[halcyon stratus]

you only get 2 groups displayed.
the other groups are only used as categoeries in the quick-access / popover window thing.

[tired hare]

Now this is crazy

[true plinth]

Rift apart was a good game.

[silk mountain]

Good game, yes

[rare lance]

this update is bad, give me back control of home please

[long maple]

you cant revert. stuck with it now

[rare lance]

seriously why even have groups now if they just going to force you into marketplaces

[somber skiff]

Show me new update plz 😔

[halcyon stratus]

see taco, now that's 2

[sage ice]

[cinder veldt]

I couldn't resist what will be 3 months of ultimate

[sage ice]

2 tacos are better than one

[halcyon stratus]

these are sour pants tacos though

[night rapids]

[true plinth]

Well zulg will hopefully get some use of the codes I got in the packs today

[tired hare]

My real question is why is gamepass even more shoved down my throat now 🥲

Hi all

[vocal gorge]

ouch, how come your GPU is hitting 85C? 😮

[tired hare]

I'm banned from Microsoft rewards I had 126k points

[tired hare]

It isnt my picture but take this it's a mobile handheld gaming PC being pushed hard by a high demanding game ya lool

[bitter turtle]

Does anyone know why discord has just vanished off of my Xbox?

[vocal gorge]

oh, that explains it 😄

[long maple]

I dont scroll down any further than my 2 pinned groups. lucky for me today its showing " recently added " and " coming to game pass " I dont need to look any further down than that lol

[tired hare]

Ya I'm playing ff14 and my GPU is around 76c

CPU around 75 to 81

[cinder veldt]

That's unfortunate

[rare lance]

might as well add a billion ads in all games if things keep pushing like this... Idiocarcy did predict the future

[vocal gorge]

nice 👍 My CPU can reach between 70-83c in games (the latter very rarely, more of a loading in thing) and GPU hardly seems to get hotter than 70C which considering all the power it has somewhat baffles me haha

[long maple]

it makes much more sense though now, as everyone will be part of " Game Pass " in some way once the rebrand starts in September.

[brazen tendon]

What cpu cooler do you use?

[vocal gorge]

arctic freezer 34 esports duo, is an air cooler. Nothing fancy

[halcyon stratus]

some video games already have ads

[tired hare]

Valve should push this fps counter up just a smidge

[cinder veldt]

I run high contrast small counter

[halcyon stratus]

well then if everyone is already in it, it doesn't need ot be advertised anymor elol

[tired hare]

Regular stream of income

[rare lance]

well it is official, no more Xbox, it is Game Pass Box now thanks to update 🤣

[tired hare]

What

[cinder veldt]

The fact xbox buy / redeem code UI freezes sometimes is scaring me

[tired hare]

Ive seen some better fan made concept with the UI but its a good step

[cinder veldt]

I hope the new UI fixes this issue at launch

[tired hare]

Lunch*

[cinder veldt]

What

[tired hare]

What?

[rare lance]

just want to remove all the bloat on the home now. i know what is coming, going, and don't need to be sold on things i bought already lol

[tired hare]

I've kinda established xbox is focusing more on sub based stuff and games then there console long before the UI change

[cinder veldt]

Doesn’t make sense why you said lunch

[rare flame]

The surgery is going well @winter forum

[tired hare]

I said that as a joke. If you read the sentence by including lunch. Its funnier.

[tired hare]

I mean windows is filled with bloatware in just used to it at this point

I don't think its going to change as much as I don't like advertisements on my UI and stuff

[rare lance]

going to need Series X pro soon just to handle all the adds lol

[tired hare]

Series X Box, Series X Box 360, Series X Box one

[rare flame]

You got the whole squad cracking up

[silent sable]

I’m so tired

[rare lance]

i kind of expected mid gen refresh of Series T/Z

[fiery python]

@silent sable Please seek the help you need. This is not the place to talk of such things.

[tired hare]

What was your previous message about?

[fiery python]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines

[silent sable]

Gender transition

[silent sable]

I’ve called translifeline a few times. Doesn’t help

[fiery python]

Please move on from the topic. I understand it's not easy, but this is not the place to talk of such extreme measures that are not solutions.

Speak to your family, friends and professionals.

[silent sable]

I have none of those

[fiery python]

Regardless, please don't continue here.

[silent sable]

Okay

[cinder veldt]

Hello

[tired hare]

Maybe Xbox server suffering

Or your ISP throttling

[tired hare]

Internet service provider

[rare flame]

My 25 dollar Microsoft card was already scratched of and used

[calm epoch]

I need someone who have a xbox series X and ps5 to dm me

[fiery python]

Why?

[fiery python]

Go back to the store you bought it from then.

[rare flame]

I'm broke

[cinder veldt]

Oof that’s unfortunate, yeah going back to return it is the best fix to the issue

If they take it back

[autumn viper]

Probably not

[calm epoch]

I want to take an advice on what to get

[rare flame]

I can't they won't accept it couse it was used by some one

[fiery python]

Cards in the store aren't usually activated until you buy it though, so anyone scratching the cards on the shelves would get nothing.

[fiery python]

Make a list of pros and cons for each, then buy the one that has the most pros for you.

[rare flame]

Then how did I have nothing

[fiery python]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[calm epoch]

Can you play old call of duty games with xbox 360 players on the X?

[fiery python]

If it's a back compat game, yes.

[rare flame]

Yes

[calm epoch]

That’s cool

[upper kelp]

Shatterline > Apex legends

[rare flame]

Like skate 3 bo2 bo1 modern warfare 2

[cinder veldt]

Twitter doesn’t play games /j (ignore this)

[calm epoch]

Modern warfare 3🥺

[rare flame]

Yeah

[calm epoch]

Amazing!

[rare flame]

If it's on the store you can play

[upper kelp]

Shatterline coming to Xbox 2023 🥹

[calm epoch]

One more thing I want to ask

The xbox controller still needs replaceable batteries?

[karmic yew]

Is there like a help channel? I can't post my looking for group coz it's "inappropriate" but I don't see how

[fiery python]

That would be something to contact Xbox Support about, not here. https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/xboxdiscord

[rare flame]

I think

[karmic yew]

Tyy :3

[calm epoch]

Oh okay thanks bro

[rare flame]

It's good

[tired hare]

What's that!?

[rare flame]

I mean there are wired controllers I use one so I don't have to tactical sprint around my house for batterys

[tired hare]

Is there a discord server for Xbox Insiders? This new UI is absolutely atrocious

[sage ice]

There is a sub reddit

[tired hare]

Yeah I’m aware of the subreddit, just wasn’t sure if there was a discord server where feedback would be taken in a more timely matter I suppose

[fiery python]

Bit late now. It's gone through all of the insider groups and this is the public release after everything got approved.

[calm epoch]

Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha

[tired hare]

From what I’ve seen from insiders it seems that a lot of their feedback since October has not been taken seriously

Having 3 means of access to the store is ridiculous

[limber carbon]

The more the merrier or happier.

[glossy nova]

So how are we liking the new dash

[long maple]

had it for months, hardly on the dash

[glossy nova]

Just went live today for most folks im liking it

[long maple]

yeah, smaller tiles are cool. but usually I already know what games I want to play before turning my console on. so dont spend much time looking at it 😄

[hollow hawk]

It's a solid upgrade from before, but like Pauldnb I'm never on my dash

[limber carbon]

Love it very much. I can finally see my background.

[glossy nova]

Lol also my xbox unlpuged itsself or the kittens are helping again

[twin fractal]

Yey! I have the new ui, looks great!

[long maple]

having 8 tiles though is good, especially TV/Movie night when I cant decide what to watch, I just have them all open and keep looking through each one

[night rapids]

I'm happy to see more of my dynamic background. That's one of the only things I wanted from an update.

I do sit on my dashboard more than an average person I think, since when I'm working I pop in and out of games and leave the pentiment background on the screen

[quartz vortex]

I wish dynamic BGs were on one x

[sage ice]

One X doesn't have enough power

[cinder veldt]

No?

[twin fractal]

Well, it reminds me more of Windows 8

[cinder veldt]

Or not

[winter forum]

I have no new dash. Oh well. It'll come eventually

[twin fractal]

Maybe they added with the new ui?

[tired hare]

More background, smaller tiles, and removal of X|S and Game Pass logos from game icons is good, but everything else is horrid lol. Even more customization has been stripped and more of the storefront is shoved down our throats

[quartz vortex]

Aren’t the dynamic backgrounds just GIFs or something?

[twin fractal]

I mean, to one users?

[twin fractal]

Yeah, something simular i guess, but in esence it's like that, (the redfall one it's horrible, in my opinion.)

[mellow roost]

Unless they're using the highest quality GIFs of all time, I doubt it. Then again, I obviously don't know what format they are, so I could be wrong.

[cinder veldt]

Who knows it could be like the 360 startup where it's generated in real time

[quartz vortex]

Yeah they could be an assortment of 3D models for all we know 😂

[mellow roost]

...What. That's a thing? I never knew.

[quartz vortex]

No wasn’t that the OG xbox startup?

[tired hare]

There needs to be a lot more dynamic backgrounds, for games

[winter forum]

Lol ofc the Barbie movie OST is on pink vinyl

[twin fractal]

I would kill for a Dynamic theme.of Residen Evil

[cinder veldt]

The 360 start up is generated in real time, that's why you can on a 360 console with a failing GPU experience funky effects

[long maple]

yeah but they seem to be selected somehow most are 1st party backgrounds

I change my between the Jedi Survivor one, and Hi-Fi Rush

[cinder veldt]

If my comment is incorrect tho Em could gladly randomly show up to correct my information 😛

[quartz vortex]

I thought it was just OG xbox?

[limber carbon]

No idea. Best to wait till someone responds on your post in https://discord.com/channels/114211522384756737/1133804074358292560

[open light]

I think it's instant, you might have to check on the xbox gametag guidelines

[cinder veldt]

Could be, but it's also likely 360 also did that

[kindred zephyr]

No it’s a 360 thing too.

[quartz vortex]

Huh, never noticed the 360 startup ever having a difference…

[cinder veldt]

I never noticed the OG xbox having a difference. It's meant to be same code that produces a very similar output

[wild locust]

guys so i refunded something at xbox, they gave me back the money on my gift card balance, but not my debit card i just refunded like 10 minutes ago anyone know why?

[untold sun]

I just finished persona 4 and have a void

[limpid flicker]

Refunds onto your debit card typically take several days, and this is the fault of your bank rather than of XBOX.

[kindred zephyr]

So now I am gonna lose my gold because of the gamepass change?

[long maple]

no, Xbox Live Gold is just a rebrand to GP Core in September and will be same price

[cinder veldt]

I'm happy now, I got gamepass until 16/11/2023. $22 well spent

[karmic yew]

What's happening to gold?

[karmic yew]

Was there some offer?

[limpid flicker]

Come September "Gold" is not a thing.

[rotund vector]

Ay, any chance we can get a roll back on the dashboard update. Think it needs more time in preview

[long maple]

nope no take back lol

[limber carbon]

Nope

[karmic yew]

Ah fairs, I've used gamepass ultimate since it released so the gold rebrand doesn't effect me

[cinder veldt]

Basically

[rotund vector]

New dashboard has more ads than a yotube video. help

[quartz vortex]

I wonder if microsoft will ever release the cloud gaming APIs, would be cool to see what people would do with it

[limpid flicker]

Almost (I started later) the same, and even for those who are only Gold subs, the price doesn't change. It's just rebranded to Game Pass Core, and you get a slightly different set of benefits.

[long maple]

yeah 25 Game Pass titles set by Microsoft, with added more 2-3 times a year.

[limpid flicker]

Presumably some will leave the service too.

[lavish glacier]

Did someone Heard about Andre infinit?

[limpid flicker]

This right now is the first time I heard of whoever that is.

[tacit robin]

the ones added are 1st party games so they shouldn't leave. Of course things can change like forza for example

[rotund vector]

Any reason why the dashboard sounds are now very low quality? Audio is fine everywhere else like games. The dashboard scrolling sounds are terrible now.

[lavish glacier]

He was my old friend

[limpid flicker]

Oh dear. Past tense?

[radiant remnant]

Secret Invasion is now over. Pretty alright just has to many plot holes that are left to be answered in future movies or shows I wish it answered

[wise grail]

Can someone help me rq

[cinder veldt]

If you want rq, contact xbox official support

[wise grail]

I got nothing on my home on the series s besides one tab with the recently opened apps

And it's not letting me add more, it's tell me to remove

[autumn venture]

Hello everyone. I kinda feel bad about my purchase. I bought a Series S a while ago because it was promoted as the 1080p/1440p-60fps console, and since I only had a 1080p tv that sound perfect to me. But nowadays it seems like games are struggling to even run on 30fps on the console let alone 60fps. Is this due to poor optimization and lazy devs or did MS make a false marketing campaign?

[cinder veldt]

Lazy devs isn’t quite correct, but false marketing campaign isn’t either

[near plover]

any news about xbox with the acquisition of activision ?

[hollow hawk]

Most games I play run at 60. It's up to devs to optimize the game for the hardware as well

[mellow roost]

#1123658752697049109

[wise grail]

Idk I bought a 1080p 100hz monitor and I'm getting stable 60 FPS I haven't seen any drops

[calm epoch]

Should every game run at 120 fps in the series x?

[near plover]

o ty

[autumn venture]

I was really hyped for Remnant 2 but the game looks and plays awful on the Series S

[cinder veldt]

No

[long maple]

no, there is a select amount that run 120, its not a very big list

[rotund vector]

Imo, the series S shouldn't have happened. I get the idea to make a "cheap" version of the console, but it just hasn't worked well at all

[cinder veldt]

It has worked super well what are you on about?

[wise grail]

Please someone help, series s isn't letting me add anything to my home besides games

[calm epoch]

Same thing applies to the ps5? Do you have any idea?

[muted leaf]

So I bought cod bo3 and all dlcs and am gamesharing with a mate do they get all the dlcs as well?

[long maple]

yes same with PS5

[autumn venture]

The idea is not bad, I just thinks devs have been doing an awful job recently.

[calm epoch]

Oh okay

[upper kelp]

The next big hit

[rotund vector]

How many times do I have to read that devs are having problems getting certain features working on series s?

[cinder veldt]

Do you live together

[tired hare]

Your profile pic is disturbing

[muted leaf]

Nah

[cinder veldt]

I only read that devs thing the console is weak and will not last, while it can

[long maple]

its not all the devs though and most dont have huge teams to begin with.

[summer magnet]

gamesharing outside your home is against tos

[autumn venture]

It just feels a bit bad because the games don't perform at the quality which was promised by Microsoft. If I knew it was so weak I'd have gone for the Series X, 4k tv or not.

[tired hare]

Are all mods here Ms employees?

[summer magnet]

no

[muted leaf]

Ok I'll sort that out then

[upper kelp]

close your eyes

[autumn venture]

I know some games have been going back to 30fps as the default mode, like Plague Tale: Requiem, but those games eventually add a 60fps mode on the larger consoles.

[cinder veldt]

30 fps isn’t a bad thing

[tired hare]

Upcoming too

[muted leaf]

If they were the same household do dlcs carry over? Bc I have my mums xbox downstairs which would be nice to gameshare with.

[tired hare]

It's horrendous

[limpid flicker]

Some games also run at 30 FPS on Series X, isn't that true?

[rotund vector]

imo 30fps games shouldn't still be a thing anymore.

[winter forum]

Yes

[cinder veldt]

30 fps works completely fine if done right

[wise grail]

Ah help 😭 I can't add Microsoft store, entertainment or anything to my xbox home besides games even though I have nothing 😭😭

[limpid flicker]

So the argument against the Series S is...?

[autumn venture]

Depends. For some reason 30fps did not bother me with Tears of the Kingdom or Xenoblade Chronicles 3, but it really annoys me on non-Nintendo games.

Beyond me matey

Is that for me?

I think it is for the TheWeekend

[inner arrow]

Hot take wednesday again?

[summer magnet]

no, that's for weeknd

[halcyon stratus]

Oh boy it is time for armchair game devs and boring number chasers !

[muted leaf]

Ok that's chill anyway Ima go have food

[winter forum]

Yis

[tired hare]

I remember series x being sold as 120 fps

[limber carbon]

A foof? A foot? food?

[autumn venture]

I mean, I think I have the right to not be satisfied about my purchase, when the marketing is different from the reality. In retrospect, I know I should have done more research

[muted leaf]

Food

[winter forum]

Don't bring my dinosaur series into this, pal

[autumn venture]

I guess the reality was that consoles are always victims to technological advancements and devs pushing boundaries. The Series S just fell victim to it faster than the PS5 or Series X

[long maple]

lookie check the SeriesX box. pretty sure it says " upto " 120

[green laurel]

Up to is key words

[halcyon stratus]

Cats are more fun than fps debates

[long maple]

they both say 8K Ready on the box too. have you seen that yet?

[night rapids]

Wait, The Weeknd joined the server? Didn't know he was an xbox fan😂

[limber carbon]

Or this owl Tact

[winter forum]

I'm not ready for 8K

[limpid flicker]

Pretty sure that what you think was promised isn't what was promised.
If you believe that any console would ever promise all games running at 60FPS or more, then you're in some fantasy land.

[tired hare]

is selling the mk2 opressor in gta worth the 4m?

[green laurel]

Does 8k work if I get two 4k tvs

[long maple]

lol

[winter forum]

Lol

[cinder veldt]

4m is weak in GTA O compared to how useful the Mk2 opressor is

[autumn venture]

I don't think this type of response is reasonable, as I have not insulted you. I just guess I expected more?

[tired hare]

its slow though

[limpid flicker]

Oh hey that last part. That's my line.

[autumn venture]

Optimization in general seems to be a thing of the past, this generation. With the devs just brute-forcing games.

[tired hare]

and doesnt lock on to players for some reason

[cinder veldt]

Tried switching to homing missiles?

[long maple]

Xbox cant force devs to put 60 on everything its upto them and the vision they want for their games. least we get options though with quality/performance modes

[tired hare]

i have homing

[night rapids]

Button getting a work out today already 😂

[halcyon stratus]

That owl is the l a w

[autumn venture]

I guess, it is my fault for falling victim to a marketing campaign.

[long maple]

I guess so

[cinder veldt]

Maybe lock on settings idk, but sell it if you didn’t feel the 8m was worth

[limber carbon]

The new chief hawk in RDR 3 😅

[winter forum]

Only victim here were your comprehension skills 😦

[autumn venture]

Ouch. What is with everyone and the insults?

[limpid flicker]

Dude. Imma get me 2 4k 144Hz monitors and run some 8k 288Hz for ultimeate smoothness. Just need 2 4090s.

[tired hare]

i did frozen money glitch and its patched now so i need the money

[halcyon stratus]

Which studio do you work for?

Sorry Crazyman50000, I just needed a chance to use the GIF 😅

[long maple]

right back later need to go shopping.

[halcyon stratus]

What did you say to me???

[winter forum]

You're on the list!

[cinder veldt]

I would stay away from that

[autumn venture]

Why are you spamming this channel with cat pictures? Just because you didn't like the previous discussion, that does not mean it has no merit. I asked a perfectly valid question, yet you continually act in a condescending manner.

[halcyon stratus]

Which studio are you speaking for when you say it is all brute force and no “optimization”?

[tired hare]

Nice day for fishing I guess 😅

[halcyon stratus]

I won’t say I’m never condescending.

But Coconut is always relevant lol

[night rapids]

The arms are so wrong but I can't stop laughing at it

[granite verge]

Did someone say cats? 🐱

[limber carbon]

I do hope Green sees them - it will definitely put a smile on her face.

[limpid flicker]

Yes, for my approval of Coconut.

[winter forum]

Dunno what's worse, cat spam hour or KitKat spam hour

[autumn venture]

Anyhow, for those who were reasonable and had a good discussion with me Thank You. For those who couldn't resist trying to showcase their superiority and had to act in a condenscending manner, please do try to be considerate towards others as it will serve you better in the future.

[mellow roost]

If you're unsatisfied with your purchase, then return it or sell it.

Don't come in here on a high horse, because rest assured, it'll leave with no legs.

[halcyon stratus]

I’ll always respond the same way to anyone who says devs are lazy

[winter forum]

The answer is mortgage hour

[limber carbon]

It will leave with no legs

Need to save that one.

[mellow roost]

Glad you liked that one. 😆

[molten briar]

You aren't the first to come in with a take like that without wanting to actually support argument nor any practical knowledge. You're trying to frankly, be insulting to an industry you clearly know nothing about when there are a LOT of people here that work within that industry and actually do know what they are talking about.

Don't show up with wild accusations and be expected to be treated "friendly" in response

[autumn venture]

It was no high horse. If you scroll back, you can see that I was asking perfectly valid questions, and did not bemoan or insult any member of this server. Unfortunately it appears that the good people of this server do not seek to respond in kind. Continuously trying to prove their superiority why belittling the other. It is frankly sad that new people are treated in such shameful manner.

[mellow roost]

See Eris's message for my response.

[limpid flicker]

The phrase "lazy devs" is itself insulting to people who work in the game industry.

[cinder veldt]

I’m 1000 times more lazy than them, they work hard

[autumn venture]

Considering the recent string of absolutely awfully optimized releases, poor launches, and other myriad of issues, it is incredibly fitting. And don't forget, no matter how bad the game, the online store always works.

[molten briar]

Lazy devs and false marketing were in your first message. Both are antagonistic ways to start a "discussion"

[night rapids]

Okay, this is an amazing response

[rotund vector]

"lazy dev" just needs to be auto replaced with "poor management"

[limber carbon]

I really dislike that term.
To me, the person that uses that term is actually the one that's lazy.

[winter forum]

I'm a lazy dev 😂
But I don't make games

[molten briar]

Anyways, move on and back to food or cat pics

[limber carbon]

I vote cat pics

[winter forum]

Oh can we not

[halcyon stratus]

Maybe lazy. Definitely ignorant.

[cinder veldt]

Even if games may not turn out as one expect, it’s still much better than what I would do

[limber carbon]

Or maybe a karate bird?

[halcyon stratus]

Big yawns at boring conversations lol

[night rapids]

I meant the admitting of you being much lazier. I appreciate that candor 😂

[autumn venture]

In that case please do enlighten me.

[winter forum]

I do recall a Dev for a sonic racing game saying they could not get the physics for jump ramps to work correctly at all. Something like 6 weeks they spent. _on jump ramps _

[autumn venture]

Matter of fact is, studios promised that for this generation even the weakest console will leave 30fps behind. They could not keep this promise at all.

[winter forum]

citation needed

[open light]

i just came back from my xbox, what game are you exactly talking about?

[molten briar]

Hi. Mod here. Move on means move on

[cinder veldt]

(Joke incoming) I did make a simpler game once tho, unfortunately I lost the computer where I did it

[autumn venture]

I guess I am just rankled by the release state of Remnant 2 on Series S. I was way too excited for that game.

[winter forum]

Pleasant you dirty hacker!

[autumn venture]

Only for it to run absolutely atrociously on the console.

[open light]

what resolution were you playing on?

[sullen forum]

This is not moving on

[limber carbon]

Now, Liverpool has a fantastic Coat of Arms.

[night rapids]

Eris, I see your posts, you're not invisible

[autumn venture]

1080p, which is the intended resolution. It doesn't even have motion blur for Christ's Sake.

[rotund vector]

Discussing games on a gaming discord server?

[weary solar]

@autumn venture has been muted for: 1 minute
Reason: Move on means move on.

[winter forum]

I liked your joke Pleasant, first one. Great work

[cinder veldt]

Only first good joke 🥲

[halcyon stratus]

Well they are when stupid discord mobile doesn’t load all the recent messages and just shows last pings lol

[winter forum]

According to me anyway

[molten briar]

Games can be discussed, but the previous discussion had devolved into a point that it had to be stopped

[cinder veldt]

Or when it literally creates a gap 😆

[rotund vector]

wow horrible moderation here. Not sure muting people that are having a perfectly valid discussion about game is ok

[true plinth]

Well I'm making progress. Opened. 50+ packs of mtg today... Sorting through everything whole working only 3 colors left to sort and put away.

[halcyon stratus]

Food chat. I am purchasing these right now:

[vast ermine]

It's so hot today

[cinder veldt]

Also Em if you are still here, do you have any knowledge if the 360 startup was real time generated like the og xbox?

Made my doubts in an earlier convo when people hadn’t heard about it 😅

[night rapids]

This is a great name. Hope they are tasty

[halcyon stratus]

I’ve had their dark chocolate ones and they are really good

[true plinth]

But do you suck out the chocolate and do witches fingers like with bugles.

[flat rapids]

Guys

[limber carbon]

Tact, is the marshmallow underneath the chocolate or is it chocolate coated marshmallows in the cone? The latter would be interesting as I would like to see how they achieved that.

[flat rapids]

Is the new ui supposed to be released yet???

[halcyon stratus]

It is hard chocolate that merges with the shell it would be a disaster trying to make claws

[autumn venture]

I guess talking about games on a gaming server is not to be done. Well then. On to cooking.

[rotund vector]

Spam cat pictures?

[molten briar]

It's rolling out to people

[autumn venture]

Sure. Tacti hit us with cats

[cinder veldt]

Reminds me of the chaos in overcooked

[autumn venture]

To quote the Grimoire Weiss: "I should have accepted that job as a cookbook while I had the chance"

[rotund vector]

Yeh, got the update today. Not sure I like the update. Feel like it could have used more time in preview. Sounds like a lot of complaints from preview users were ignored

[flat rapids]

It looks better than old imu

[night rapids]

A lot of the feedback was also implemented

[autumn venture]

On Series S - dearest stepchild - it's bugged. You literally can't add anything to your dashboard.

[abstract pulsar]

Good afternoon, all

[limber carbon]

Hi Miles

[rotund vector]

Eh, WAY more ads on the home screen now

[abstract pulsar]

Hello, Simon
How are you?

[night rapids]

My series S seems fine, I can add things

[limber carbon]

I'm good, doing some trying to write some tests for Python. How about you?

[autumn venture]

I can't. Been trying for a while.

[limpid flicker]

I don't think I have the new look yet. However, more ads is not the worst problem for me. I don't spend that long on the home screen.

[abstract pulsar]

About the same. Thinking about building a PC for the first time eventually.

[autumn venture]

More ads is always a good thing. It's the company's way of reminding you that you can always CONSUME more.

We should put ads in all games! Street Fighter 7 sponsored by McDonalds, just sounds magical

[rotund vector]

Some times I like to look at what my friends have been up to and what not. Would rather my home screen be filled with MY games and MY friends. Not all store pages are gamepass ads.

[kind heron]

If you ain’t consimin’ you ain’t livin

[molten briar]

Most of the feedback complaints are from people that expect the impossible from a dashboard and aren't feasible to implement. You want prices to remain lower? You gotta deal with some ads. Very few people actually spend a vast amount of time on their home screen anyways

[autumn venture]

Please stop defending the almost trillionare corporation.

[limber carbon]

Well, such a pity I can't get it on Amazon here. Well, maybe I'll get lucky with the american snack shops I suppose.

[abstract pulsar]

Ads don't bother me much - I find some fancy stuff with ads on my dash anyway

[kind heron]

Oh wait this guy’s complaining about games being advertised on a game system’s dashboard? I thought he was talking about ads in games 😂

[cinder veldt]

Please sit down in the flightseat

[autumn venture]

I was! it was actually about both.

[limpid flicker]

I've gone on the record before as saying I wish there was a way to say "not this advert" that actually was effective.
That's only a small concern, even for me.

[rotund vector]

Tell you what they could do, they could start charging for using their services. OH WAIT, they already do. Here's your ads filled dashboard

[quasi hatch]

Everybody has new Xbox Menu now???

[vagrant mica]

Ads in mobile games suck when they force you to watch them whilst playing

[molten briar]

Considering I have seen all the feedback over the dashboard and the iterations, due to being an employee on the Insider team

[autumn venture]

Anyway I think I should stop talking here. Been barely here for 30 minutes and I already stepped on 4 toes and got an admin involved. I'd say it's a new record.

[night rapids]

Starting to roll out for general today

[molten briar]

You want gpu or hardware pricing even higher than it is?

[winter forum]

I haven't got it

[autumn venture]

There is no reason for it to be as high as it is. I mean other than pure greed.

[rotund vector]

I get the feeling this server is an echo chamber. Anyone who steps out of line gets muted. Anyone who has an opinion they don't like, gets muted

[winter forum]

That ain't the case at all

[limpid flicker]

Y'all are both still here.

[abstract pulsar]

If you don't like it, leave

[limber carbon]

And not muted...yet

[halcyon stratus]

Update: the dark chocolate ones are better.

The little bit of marshemllow in these s’mores ones actually makes the whole bite a bit too sweet

[rotund vector]

Why would I get muted for having a valid opinion?

[abstract pulsar]

Marshmallow? Where?

[open flume]

its not about opinions not being liked. its about people entering someone else's house and then deciding to trash the house or say theyre not gonna follow the rules of the house

[vagrant mica]

how did you get enginearly role

[open flume]

but everyone online thinks that their voice is demanded to be rightfully heard in every space, and that's simply not true. luckily, discord allows anyone to create a server

[abstract pulsar]

Marshmallow :D

[molten briar]

tiny ice cream cone obviously

[cinder veldt]

Nice

[vast ermine]

Mallow marsh

[halcyon stratus]

Bad says a serving size is 2. That’s about right for these.

But with the dark chocolate ones I could eat like 6 in a row lmao

[limber carbon]

Hmm, now I want to try them with coffee

[rotund vector]

Having a good discussion with different opinions can be extremely beneficial for everyone. Things wont improve if everyone is a yes man.

[limber carbon]

But I know for sure the packet will be gone in 2 minutes 😦

[abstract pulsar]

Imagine the cone was endless, and chew slowly

[limber carbon]

It's harder with chocolate based snacks.

[abstract pulsar]

Fair

[winter forum]

They do look good with coffee, if it's the "right" darkness level

[molten briar]

I'll re-emphasize this post. Discussion is allowed, even of dissenting opinions, but be respectful about it

[halcyon stratus]

If these were the dark chocolate ones they’d be gone by the@time I drive in to the office in a second lol

[wise grail]

Anyone know a good shooting game

[abstract pulsar]

Rainbows sure are fun

[rotund vector]

First person or third person?

[limber carbon]

Yep, they look extremely tasty as well.

Oh, looks like I have to hunt these down. Going to add this to my list.

Also fun fact I like the character designs of MLP mostly, but not the series

[abstract pulsar]

Indeed

[mellow roost]

Rainbow Dash is a pegasus, not a unicorn. 😄

[rotund vector]

For singleplayer I would say the new DOOM games are unparalleled. Multiplayer wish you can't go wrong with COD or bf2042.

My favorite shooter type game right now is Destiny 2 but new players getting into that game is TOUGH.

[summer magnet]

oh yeah she is lol

[abstract pulsar]

My fault LOL, I had a feeling she wasn't - no horn

[rancid snow]

I never tried sounds good though that's it

[true plinth]

Only one more color left to sort o can't wait to just be done maybe later in the week I'll see if I can spruce up my decks lol. I should just make some sort of master database of all the cards I have to make it even easier lol.

[halcyon stratus]

There’s a website for that… I can look this afternoon but it should be easy to find. Has lists of cards so you can pick the specific edition / art you have. Can do stats on colors costs etc.

[flat blade]

who like jynxzi??

[upper meteor]

Hi

[abstract pulsar]

Halo

[hushed hound]

I just found so much info about upgrading a second SSD to an laptop. Lucky i figure this out, about upgrading the other RAM slot... this is extremly so confusing and dosn't make any sense

[stiff siren]

Is there any way to bind the xbox elite controller 2 back paddles to other keys? like having 2 A buttons is kinda pointless

[cinder veldt]

Yes

[fiery python]

Yes, you can bind it to lots of different things.

[hushed hound]

For example.. the speed my laptop can run is 2933 and all the RAM's i see are 3200..., also people say has to be the same brand as well... but dosn't even exist

[stiff siren]

on pc, sorry should have specified

[stiff siren]

How? I cannot find the option anywhere

[fiery python]

In the accessories app.

[stiff siren]

Yeah, but it seems like I can only bind it to other buttons on the controller

[cinder veldt]

Ofc

[vagrant mica]

what else can you bind it to?

[fiery python]

What else are you expecting to bind it to?

[stiff siren]

I was expecting them to be separate inputs that I could use in games

[fiery python]

No

[vagrant mica]

that’s not how binding works

[wicked stag]

My bank locked my card after I bought the sf6 ultimate pass

💀lol

[granite verge]

Oh no

I hate when that happens

[stiff siren]

So there is no way to use the back paddles for other functions than them essentially being duplicate buttons?

[vagrant mica]

Nope

[small delta]

Hey what happens if i get game pass when i alr have live gold active

[fiery python]

If you get Game Pass Ultimate it will upgrade your Gold to Ultimate

[wicked stag]

No warning too lol

[small delta]

?

[granite verge]

Yeah there generally isn't, fraud prevention

[stiff siren]

guess I'll have to use third party software then rip

[ripe hawk]

does anyone know why my mw2 that is a downloaded game keep saying corrupt and it wont fix

[small delta]

ight but would it be cheaper

[granite verge]

Usually a quick call to your bank will sort it, or if you have a mobile app you can sometimes unlock from there

[small delta]

It also works if i buy it on another acc right?

[lilac forge]

gta so fun

[cinder veldt]

Indeed

[upper meteor]

Wanna know what else is fun

[vagrant mica]

yes, it converts on a ratio of 3:2

[sinful swift]

for some reason one of my controllers wont let me scroll on the dashboard
its just stuck to the top

[vagrant mica]

maybe stick drift?

[small delta]

tbh might buy on seperate acc cuz its on sale for £1

[sinful swift]

nah idk why tho

[upper meteor]

Halo

[abstract pulsar]

(wrong orange, but whatever)

[sinful swift]

no other buttons are being pressed and the left stick just doesnt work

[wicked stag]

It’s so odd cause I bought a pair of shoes and they never locked my card. Like 258 after taxes n shipping

[vagrant mica]

why not use the £1 deal to convert your gold to game pass?

[night rapids]

This looks promising though. Keyboard button binding if I'm reading it correctly https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2023/07/24/xbox-insider-release-notes-alpha-2308-230720-2200/

[small delta]

Whaaa

My live gold is 3 months though , and that game pass is only one month

[molten briar]

Yes it is, I was about to come post that. But it is insiders only atm

[cinder veldt]

3 months gp then

[small delta]

So wouldnt i lose 2 months of gold?????

[granite verge]

A lot of it comes down to spending patterns and purchases from previously unknown retailers. Could even just be a false positive that triggered

[cinder veldt]

Ish 3

[vagrant mica]

you would get 3 months of game pass ultimate if you upgraded the gold as you get the additional month when upgrading

[cinder veldt]

Only 50 days for 3 momth code

[small delta]

But i swear game pass is way more expensive than gold , how come converting it from 3 months gold to ultimate 3 months is only £1? Surely not

[wicked stag]

Definitely

Oh, I found out my audio issue isn't limited to just the Xbox, so I think it might be the amp now. Which sucks if it is

Oh wow, very cool. Think my One X is still in alpha - can't remember it was still skip ahead or not

[vagrant mica]

hmm?

[mellow roost]

[winter forum]

_awwww....awwwwawawawawawaaah intensifies _

[cinder veldt]

Just reading what support told me

[keen heath]

@fiery python what does rhinne mean

[small delta]

Sooo i get about 2 months of game pass instead

[abstract pulsar]

Damn, stole my thunder

You win this round

[cinder veldt]

Yes, plus the gamepass month

[vagrant mica]

Yes but you’re also paying for an extra month of game pass ultimate when you upgrade so it’s 3 months

[small delta]

Im so confused , whats that???

[cinder veldt]

The one you are buying

[fiery python]

It means that's what you call me.

[small delta]

Oh so its that offer i was talking about

[cinder veldt]

Yes gamepass ultimate

[vagrant mica]

I will give a better example. If you had 3 years of xbox live and upgraded to ultimate, you would get 2 years game pass ultimate + the additional month that you just bought. The £1 deal in itself is an additional month of game pass ultimate

[cinder veldt]

So 2 years and 1 month

[small delta]

That deal is only for July? Right?

[small delta]

But i dont wanna pay to upgrade , im just for the £1 deal lol

[flat rapids]

I sent my series 2 to get repaired and I got an email saying Your replacement device has left our service center and is on its way to the shipping address you provided. Does that mean it's the same controller repaired or a replacement

[cinder veldt]

Replacement

[vagrant mica]

You can pay the £1 then disable recurring billing

[small delta]

Then i still get 3 months of game pass ? Thats nuts

[cinder veldt]

That’s why people don’t send in special controllers, because you get a replacement

[vagrant mica]

yes

[fiery python]

They will send you a replacement and then use yours for repairs/refurbishment. It allows them to offer a quicker turnaround on the service.

[vagrant mica]

It is always cheaper to convert game pass core/ XBL to ultimate than it is to buy ultimate outright

It’s an xbox life hack

[cinder veldt]

I noticed today, and even then it was 3:2

[small delta]

Hmm , £18 for xbox live 3 months , i pay additional £1 to get 3 months game pass???

[vagrant mica]

For the first time yeah. The £1 deal is usually only available for first time upgrades

[quasi echo]

i find it annoying that everything has a subscription based service

[vagrant mica]

you still have the option to buy stuff outright

[small delta]

So for each acc u get first time £1 game pass then another £1 upgrade from core?

[quasi echo]

true and ik why subs are a thing it just bugs

[small delta]

They got rid of £1 game pass tho , like when u buy it outright

[ripe hawk]

does anyone know why my mw2 that is a downloaded game keep saying corrupt and it wont fix

[vagrant mica]

You can only upgrade to game pass ultimate once for £1. Doing it on other accounts is fraud

[flat rapids]

Wait, so is my controller I'm getting back brand new or refurbished

[small delta]

Alr , so next time if i wanna upgrade again it will be original price?

[quasi echo]

cuz people liked to do "infinite gamepass glitches" like they were playing GTA

[vagrant mica]

yes, unless they add the £1 deal again for people who have upgraded before

[fiery python]

Could be either.

[small delta]

Also how would the 4:3 ratio apply to my current scenario? 3 months of core upgrade to ultimate

[tacit robin]

refurbished normally unless your really lucky. But to be honest you wont be able too tell apart from the fact it wont be in a box

[flat rapids]

Wait so I'm not getting the xbox elite series 2 box back?

[fiery python]

I've had a brand new sealed box one sent before, as well as plain box bare controllers that were likely refurbs. Luck of the draw and depends what they have they available.

[small delta]

Since its not in years , and its in months instead , i basically get 2 months + another month and not 2 years + another month (365 days + 30 days)

[vagrant mica]

Are you talking about game pass core (new name for xbox live) or game pass console. Game pass core/ xbox live are both 3:2 conversion for game pass ultimate

[fiery python]

You're not supposed to send them the box.

[tacit robin]

you wont get the same box back no and dont send any of the parts

[small delta]

Live gold where it lets you play mulitplayer

[cinder veldt]

Or loose parts

[tacit robin]

this is all in the infomation they send you

[vagrant mica]

Then yes you will get 3 months of game pass ultimate if you upgrade now

[tacit robin]

you should read before you do things.

[small delta]

If thats the case , ill go for it

[cinder veldt]

People just click accept nowadays and think it’s good 😆

[vagrant mica]

you are supposed to send it bare bones with none of the detachable accessories

[quasi echo]

ur telling me reading comprehension from 2nd grade was important?!

[fiery python]

I hope you didn't send it with all the paddles and sticks attached, because there's a chance you'll get a bare controller back with no attachments at all.

[small delta]

What????

[cinder veldt]

And then get surprised when something mentioned on there is something they broken

[small delta]

Did u reply to the wrong msg?

[winter forum]

Sounds complicated. Just faff in the dark and open a support ticket with I'm not happy that it's not working despite googling nothing and trying nothing

[vagrant mica]

Yeah you don’t get them back. My cousin sent one in with all that

[vocal gorge]

I think I finally have a reason to replace my Xbox controller. Left thumb stick is now wearing out. Going to get a Series X/S controller and the play and charge kit soon

[tired hare]

Does anyone own the Gamesir g7 se?

[vagrant mica]

They just give you a new controller like 90% of the time

[tired hare]

If anyone does lmk

[small delta]

@vagrant mica thanks for your help , btw , gonna make my purchase now , hope it works 🙏🙏

[fiery python]

They will more often give a refurb, not a new one.

[vagrant mica]

np

[flat rapids]

That's what I did

[winter forum]

Is thumbstick replacement against the rules for none elite controllers?

[flat rapids]

Idk

[mellow roost]

This is the most progressive healthcare center I've been to in over 13 years. Advertising PrEP is one thing, but trans care? I'm impressed, Minnesota. Whole lot better than Arizona where doctors don't even believe it's possible for women to know what's wrong with their bodies. 💀

[vagrant mica]

interesting, I didn’t notice any blemishes or anything. Must have done a good job

[fiery python]

It's not permitted for discussion under our rules.

[winter forum]

Thanks

[flat rapids]

Bet u pay for that

[winter forum]

I meant just the rubber caps but assume you meant that too

[vagrant mica]

good but yeah you won’t get the box

[flat rapids]

I won't get the box😔

[lunar tartan]

In Minnesota insurances are required to provide trans care and PrEP

[night rapids]

Adding rubber caps to thumbsticks isn't a replacement though

[flat rapids]

Canada has free Healthcare 😄

[small delta]

Hold on , mind if i dm u something ? Its just a photo

[night rapids]

You said you didn't send the box, so you should still have your original one

[vagrant mica]

ok

[night rapids]

Some free Healthcare. You still pay for a lot of things

[quasi echo]

Do they have In N out ?

[winter forum]

If you saw my 360 caps, you'd ask how it even still works.. Not quite that bad but I might get something done about it one day

[vagrant mica]

You still have to pay through taxes but it’s a better system than the US 100%

[quasi echo]

I wish i could connect my 360 controller to my Series S

[winter forum]

You'd think that would work for BC games at least

[small delta]

Ight sent

[flat rapids]

I did.. didn't say to not sent the original box

There was nothing in it anyways😄 box would of collected dust to

[trail harness]

had a bug in my Arduino code that I ended up tracking down to the use of a Python script to convert bitmaps into array data for the Uno R4's LED matrix. In a nutshell, my code was never broken. It was a script I was using that has a bug in it... and it looks like I can now fix it.

[vagrant mica]

I have absolutely no idea what that means but I’m glad you can fix it

[small delta]

Clicked on the £1 offer , showed up with £13 😂🤣🤣

[flat rapids]

Gamepass is 19.20 in Canada I believe

[ripe hawk]

Does anyone know how to fix corrupt games when its a downloaded game?

[cinder veldt]

Redownload

[ripe hawk]

i uninstalled like 4x and nothing

[fiery python]

That means you've had it before.

[cinder veldt]

Try another install device and try #1091756150644555946

[vagrant mica]

is it a backwards compatible game

[ripe hawk]

it wont let me download it just stops it and says item corrupt

its mw2 remake with warzone 2 that game

like came out last year lol

[vagrant mica]

it’s digital or a disc

[ripe hawk]

digital

[vagrant mica]

Weird. Maybe try deleting the saved profile data or something

[ripe hawk]

i did still nothing

[vagrant mica]

Hard reset the xbox and tried again?

[ripe hawk]

is hard reset just unplug?

[vagrant mica]

Well you could do that. Unplug for like 30 seconds

[ripe hawk]

ok

[small delta]

Welp , turns out that £1 thing is only for new members, i got tricked , on my main account with gold it shows up as £13 , on my alt it shows up as £1 , that means it wouldnt convert 😔

[desert sonnet]

I heard the dashboard finally updated

[fiery python]

Using a second account to get offers is considered fraud.

[small delta]

Then why has the £1 thing appeared on my main account sale??

[fiery python]

Because it always shows the offer price on the tile. It's not checking your account history at that point.

[vagrant mica]

£1 deal is a deal only offered once so you must have used it before. I still don’t know why it allowed me to do the deal twice though.

[fiery python]

Occasionally it will allow people with lapsed subs to get it again, but that's rare.

[small delta]

I used the £1 before , now i got tricked and thought its another one , turns out its £13

[tacit robin]

I think they fixed that now when it disappeared

[vagrant mica]

It was 3 years since the first time I upgraded so it could be that it has been a while yeah

[ripe hawk]

Can I not send photos ?

[craggy vessel]

Hey I need some help

[fiery python]

See above.

[vagrant mica]

it is still cheaper than buying 3 months of game pass ultimate separately

but I would recommend doing a larger deal like 3 years xbox live to 2 years game pass ultimate

[small delta]

Upgrading for £13?

[vagrant mica]

yeah

[small delta]

welp ill bail on that then

[craggy vessel]

Created a post in support.

the new xbox dashboard seems to be causing quite a stir. Think I'll check it out on my brother's Series X (if he isn't on it) to see what it's all about 😄

[slow crystal]

ikr

[tacit robin]

its good

[night cape]

So it's hard to find what I'm looking for...

[tacit robin]

all home changed cause a stir. There is not a home screen that will please eveyone

[fiery python]

That's unfortunate.

[sinful swift]

i love the current one

[tired hare]

Is the new dashboard slowly rolling out? I've not got it yet.

[sinful swift]

i havent either
is it on the insiders app?

[fiery python]

It's not available to everyone yet. It will take a few weeks for everyone to get it.

[tired hare]

Not for me I've only got omega

[sinful swift]

oh

[quasi echo]

I got the new ps6 😄

[final cove]

its so annoying that everytime I want to use my controller to play on my pc, my xbox turns on

[snow phoenix]

2050: PS10, Xbox Series XXXXX, Nintendo Switch 6

[stoic blaze]

xbox will follow what twitter did and will name their next console E

[snow phoenix]

It’s X now

[stoic blaze]

thats what I said

[snow phoenix]

You know what, I’ll call X Twitter

[obsidian kayak]

So sony is giving away dreams as one of the monthly games. I thought the servers closing in September

[green laurel]

Change the dash

It sucks in everything else now change it again!!

[stoic blaze]

will stray be on gamepass?

[true plinth]

I'm so excited
Had a moment where it all just clicked and I have an idea of how to improve one of my decks a lot.

[tired hare]

now i can see TOO MUCH of my background!

[tired hare]

Bruh I’m not even online and I haven’t played for a day and I’m still getting party invites

[zealous yacht]

Hello

[stoic blaze]

at least you are getting invites, no one has ever invited me 💀

[tired hare]

💀

[candid hull]

Can I ask Em a question? Is the play icon permanent? All 145 of my games have the play icon. May I suggest instead an icon that indicates if a game is no longer playable because of not in gamepass or whatever rather than indicate what is actually playable. The doctor doesn't ask what's right with you, the doctor asks what's wrong.
https://ibb.co/h13ZyDs

[zealous yacht]

I joined this server 11 minutes ago to have answers about an issue. I recently bought an Xbox one X. On the amazon box, it said 1 TB. But for some reason when I check for internal storage one the settings, it tells me I have 365 GB, instead of the usual 700-ish I kept seeing on youtube. That is the exact same storage I had on my Xbox One S. Can someone help me understand what's going on?

[cinder veldt]

Their HDD isn’t original

[zealous yacht]

Their what?

I'm dumb as hell, so I don't really know what that is

[sullen forum]

Any Xbox One X you purchase at this point is refurbished (AKA used)

[dawn locust]

yo who knows how to fix a rb button an xbox controller

[sullen forum]

so someone may have swapped the drive internally and you can't rely on the box listing it came in

[dawn locust]

its going down when i click on it but its not registering a press

[zealous yacht]

god damn it

thanks for the help though

[mellow roost]

You'd probably have to send it in to Microsoft, take it to a licensed repair shop, or buy a new one.

[dawn locust]

i dropped it

[mellow roost]

That doesn't really change what I said.

[dawn locust]

so i thought i could fix it but its my only controller

[mellow roost]

Also, Twitter, you fools. I've tricked you all and you haven't even noticed.

I've been muting/blocking ads for months now. All my major ads are for McDonald's and Wendy's now. It's been like this for at least a week. I've beaten the system. 😤

Only downside is...now I want McDonald's or Wendy's every 5 seconds. 💀

[vagrant mica]

I never crave mcdonalds because it’s so bad here lol

[cinder veldt]

I wouldn’t mind an El Maco or Tasty cheese rn

[vagrant mica]

I want a chinese

[granite verge]

I'm biding my time, just over another hour and I'm having midnight burritos

[mellow roost]

Ayyy, new dashboard hit GA! 🥳

[night rapids]

Kylie lives in a bunker, confirmed

[quasi hatch]

I want one too......

[halcyon raft]

Hello everyone

[mellow roost]

Very snappy feeling. Quick, looks nice.

[quasi hatch]

Hi

[cinder veldt]

It feels odd seeing some games I actually play on someone else's dashboard

[quasi hatch]

It looks like Playstation and with this background

[vagrant mica]

mine is updating now

[mellow roost]

Technically speaking it might as well be.

Basement, underground, safest room in case of natural disaster (this room is the last room to flood when groundwater gets too much as well)... No lights, sliding door, ventilated... Yeah, kind of our own little bunker.

[cinder veldt]

Sounds like my dream place to build a setup in, outside of building one in a garage

[tired hare]

hi people

[mellow roost]

It's also the coldest room in the house, even with my Series X blasting heat out.

[quasi hatch]

Best username 😄😄

[cinder veldt]

Yeah my basement room is basically always cold

[quasi hatch]

What I got was a MESSAGE that it will be changing soon 😒😒

[mellow roost]

Only thing that really sucks is the stairs.

But we got 2 fridge/freezers (one is our own mini fridge/freezer, the other is the basement fridge) down here, gunna be investing in a microwave soon, and we have a toilet and shower down here in the basement too.

[cinder veldt]

Stairs scary, but our house it's not directly a basement

[mellow roost]

One day I'll give a tour. 😆

[cinder veldt]

And I won't 😅

[proper umbra]

can i get some help

[cinder veldt]

I would show more of my stuff and such but I'm just very cautious

[proper umbra]

my cloud gaming like isn't working at all

So we’re all going to Kylie’s in case of an apocalypse, got it

[cinder veldt]

Even Kylie might buy GTA V 👀

[mellow roost]

Depending on how long it's on Game Pass, I probably will once it leaves. At least the online part. It's actually been kinda fun.

[idle spear]

2/4 of mine have the new dashboard layout now

[cinder veldt]

Hopefully it gets more fun playing online with me, or it gets worse

[mellow roost]

Thanks to Chedder, I was able to get a Kosatka.

[hollow hawk]

It's funny because I got that message too but I already had been testing the new home for around a month

[tired hare]

Is xbox better than ps?

[hollow hawk]

We don't do console wars here, use the console you want

[cinder veldt]

I wish I could have that title /hj, now playing with me might not be on the board 😛

[swift thistle]

i should probably get a playthrough done of new vegas on pc. since i actually bought it

[upper kelp]

Which FPS game are you most excited for that’s coming to Xbox 2023?

-Shatterline
-XDefiant

[swift thistle]

Starfield, next question

[short mantle]

I’ve been mostly playing indies this month. I’m at 50K gamerscore for the month. I still need to finish FF16.

[spring thistle]

Since when is halo Infinite free

[cinder veldt]

Also Edmundo if you are here, I played overwatch on console, and I understand everything now

[quasi hatch]

Only Multiplayer

[mellow roost]

The multi-player has always been free.

[tired hare]

I mean PlayStation not pc 💀

[gray latch]

again, get whatever you want

[final cove]

I own both. They're both great

[hollow hawk]

They're plastic bricks with green boards and metal inside, pick the one with your favorite games and play video games

no console wars

[short mantle]

Are you unable to make your own decisions?

Alr Im s xbox user should I transfer to ps?

[spring thistle]

I don't know both are enticing

[hollow hawk]

Yet another perfect piece of software from Discord inc.©®™

[swift thistle]

remember when we never had these issues?

[halcyon stratus]

That’s what I do too because I really liked the achievement system early on. Even though I have almost no achievement points I still consider it my “primary” console to play cross platform games on

[tired hare]

Alr alr ty for answer but xbox is xbox in any way hahaha

[halcyon stratus]

No?

[idle spear]

In what way?

[cinder veldt]

The unfortunate toxicity and the fact it's easier

[swift thistle]

unfortunate

[halcyon stratus]

I’d love to use an app that never had any bugs also lol

[hollow hawk]

Discord mobile in specific has been hellish for me since their rewrite of the Android app to React Native. Runs slower, drains battery faster, and it's just plain weird feeling since it's got iOS's design elements on an Android phone.

[cinder veldt]

Discord always had bugs, but there was a time the PC client wasn't too bad

[idle spear]

Ow yeah the toxicity is bad. Are you doing better in ranked on console then?

[short mantle]

Overwatch PC players will always have an advantage, same with any FPS.

[final orchid]

oh wow new xbox ui actually looks pretty good

you could just buy an expansion

[halcyon stratus]

Without expansion you can fill an S with literally just 2 of the newer larger AAA games

[wind shuttle]

The expansion is crazy expensive. Costs more than the console itself

[cinder veldt]

Haven't tried ranked yet, but did ~30 elims those games
