Everything looks and plays better on pc if you have the best specs

[winter forum]

Except last of us at launch 😄

[tired hare]

how do i download games from xbox gamepass ultimate on my pc?.. sorry im dumb

[cerulean basin]

You need to launch the Xbox app.
From there, you'll find a Game Pass tab on the left, from which you can download and launch those games.

[upper meteor]

Wanna see something incredibly smooth

[cerulean basin]

If you don't have it installed, you can download the app here:

[upper meteor]

I've shared this one before, but im just so proud of myself lol

[cerulean basin]

Pfff... camper 😛

[upper meteor]

[cerulean basin]

(Well done)

[upper meteor]

Thank you

[fluid creek]

Nice shot!

[upper meteor]

Thanks sam

[dark sparrow]

I'm usually only able to snipe people out of a tank in Halo CE

[upper meteor]

Yeah it's way easier in ce

Wanna see an overshield jumpscare

[rigid hatch]

is there a supporter online who can help me with xbox problems

[weary spade]

Are LAN parties possible with the series s?

[hearty plinth]

as in a personal LAN party? not like egaming lan stuff?

[cinder veldt]

LAN party can mean different things for different people, but if a game has system link it works in the way LAN party actually means

But then it could also just mean everyone being on the LAN, but still an online game

[open minnow]

series s or one s? one s is $50 cheaper and comes with modern warfare and infinite warfare im torn

[fiery python]

Series

[red ledge]

Hey, if we have a 50$ gift card, do I need to add credit card details to my account // if not will I be prompted with address details

[fiery python]

One S is last gen and no longer getting new first-party games, with third-party games slowing down releases too. You should try and get a Series S or X at this point.

[open minnow]

i play a lot of 360 games so disc reader would be clutch but idk 60fps on most games would be nice

[fiery python]

Depends what you're buying.

[fiery python]

Don't count on 60fps on 'most games'. On either console.

[open minnow]

true

[red ledge]

a game and some vbucks

[fiery python]

As long as the gift card is enough to fully cover the cost then you won't need to add a card.

[red ledge]

oh I managed to find a south african retailer

[open minnow]

itll only really be used for 360 games by me and forza horizon 4, some game pass games etc and fortnite by my brother

[red ledge]

nice!! So no address details right?

[cinder veldt]

Fortnite you don't want last gen

[fiery python]

Well if you need a disc drive the Series S is no good to you.

[fiery python]

Depends if you already have one on the account or not.

[red ledge]

I do..

[open minnow]

how so

[fiery python]

A billing address is needed to sort out sales tax.

[cinder veldt]

I would consider it a not nice experience

[open minnow]

stutters n whatnot?

[cinder veldt]

Yes

[red ledge]

I was always fine with buying through credit card but this happens; ""Check the info you entered. It doesn't match the info for this card."

[open minnow]

tragic

[red ledge]

thats wy I thought gift cards are the soln

[fiery python]

Do you actually live in the US?

[red ledge]

I live in south africa

[somber urchin]

💀

[fiery python]

Okay, then that's why you're having issues.

Changing region is marketplace fraud, violates Terms of Service and can lead to an account ban. We're going to end this topic here.

[red ledge]

??? I buy in south african rands

[fiery python]

But you're talking about a $ gift card

[red ledge]

nooo that was an example, I'm buying 400 rands

I wanted to save time without explaining what rands are

[open minnow]

💀 fraud moment

[fiery python]

Not sure why you would choose a completely random country as an example instead of just using the actual facts.

[red ledge]

lemme send an ss of my screen showing south african time

[fiery python]

No

[sterile basin]

Hey guys, should I buy an Xbox series s, there's one on sale with game pass with 3 months for 30k inr, I'm coming from a low end pc which struggles to run every new game

[red ledge]

I'm not doing fraud wow...

[open minnow]

jail

[somber urchin]

Always

[fiery python]

Okay, good. But you gave the wrong info which made it seem that way.

[red ledge]

my account is south african too

[cinder veldt]

It would be up to you, but it sure is a good upgrade

[red ledge]

yeah I still can't find what to do for that yet

funny enough my card is southa frican

[fiery python]

If you have a billing address on your account already you shouldn't be asked for one. But I don't see why it's an issue adding your address.

[red ledge]

I have no clue either, I just hope I don't meet that "Check the info you entered. It doesn't match the info for this card." again if I redeemed a gift card

[fiery python]

If you do, then contact Support.

[red ledge]

okay, thank you so much for assisting

[sterile basin]

If I buy the Xbox series s game pass bundle, will I have to enter my payment stuff when I try to redeem it? It was like that a year ago wondering if it changed

[dim snow]

I am sorry if this is not allowed, but does anyone know what could cause an Xbox Series S to not power on at all? (Power supply good, cables good and properly connected, I tried the sync button, hard reset, and the controller. There is a slight buzzing noise coming from near the fan and power supply.) The automated bots at Xbox Support are, of course, no help.

[fiery python]

If you've tried a different power cable and different power socket and there's still no power to the console then I'd send it for repair.

[dim snow]

Alright, my external hard drive lights up and my phone charges on the USB ports, so I'd guess there's an issue on the board.

[limpid flicker]

Do you get the white light on the console's power button?

[dim snow]

No, solid black light.

[limpid flicker]

Dang. Not sounding good. 😬

[fiery python]

You mean no light? Because it's either on (white) or off

[dim snow]

Yeah, there's no light. Could it be a software / firmware issue? Then again, it would probably boot into recovery mode.

[fiery python]

Probably not

[normal wren]

Hello people

[fiery python]

Hi

[uncut flax]

Curious

[dim snow]

Hey, how are you doing?

[open minnow]

howdy

[tired hare]

Good afternoon.

How was your day.

[open oak]

What are the expectations for the new indians jones game? Will it be open world or something like uncharted 4

[cerulean basin]

I imagine it to be a mix of Tomb Raider and Uncharted, yes

[fiery python]

We'll find out on the 18th

[open oak]

Im not having too high expectations after this starfield disappointment

[cerulean basin]

Why? It's a completely different studio even

[open oak]

I think its better to not have high expectations

[tired hare]

I understand.

[sterile basin]

Good idea to not have high expectations

[cerulean basin]

That's fair. Keeping expectations in check is a good thing. Being a pessimistic with everything however is a bit dull if you ask me. I like having things to look forward to.

[open oak]

Only game that exceeded its expectations for me last few years was elden ring

[sterile basin]

Yea

[cerulean basin]

How about games that met your expectations?
Not failed to or exceeded.

[open oak]

Indeed otherwise you look forward too much

[open oak]

Uhmm i think hogwarts

[sterile basin]

Pc walks them so I can't really know sadly just hearing what people say

[cerulean basin]

There's been SO many games over the past few years that met or exceeded my expectations

[open oak]

I liked it and it was how i expected it to be

[tired hare]

Hey, what's up?

[open oak]

I wish i could say the same

But elden ring has ruined it for almost all open world games for me

Every open world game that i have played after was just too fast getting bored

[cerulean basin]

Then maybe the issue is that you shouldn't expect every new open world game to exceed Elden Ring. Not because they fail at it, but because not every game aims to have that style of open world.

[open oak]

Yes but its impossible knowing an open world game can be this good

[tired hare]

I have the same. I like games with stories.

Since we're talking games, what stuff would you unbiasedly recommend?

[open oak]

Elden ring

[cerulean basin]

For me, open world games work best when I stop treating them like a list of checkboxes.
It happens specially if I've been playing an open world game for too long, going from point A to point B just doing quests.

[open oak]

Indeed the standard formula is gettint boring for me

[limpid flicker]

Nothing. I don't see how it's even possible to recommend something without bias.
However, Yakuza.

[cerulean basin]

Every once in a while it's nice to take a step back, enjoy the world itself, stop looking at compass markers for the next goal and instead approach the game a bit more as if you truly were the character you're playing as.

[tired hare]

I recommend Bakugan Defenders of the core, ben 10 ultimate alien and Inazuma leven Strikers.

[tired hare]

That's why Assassin's Creed Valhalla or Odyssey are kinda meh..

[open oak]

Yes odyssey was still fun but valhalla is just the same and repetitive again

They went on too long with the same shizzle

[cerulean basin]

I enjoyed the hell out of Valhalla, but I took breaks through it all whenever I was starting to play it as if just going through the motions

[grave finch]

they are great, that's just your opinion

[open oak]

I had fun playing valhalla the first 20 hours

[cerulean basin]

The game has insane amounts of detail.
But once you start doing quest after quest after quest, your brain can sometimes switch itself off and stop paying attention to the small details that contribute towards making it enjoyable

[open oak]

I do have to say the story of valhalla was terribly bad

But thats my opinion

[limpid flicker]

That's their opinion, and you just gave yours. Should we keep on pointing out every time something is someone's opinion?

[winter forum]

Oh can we?!

[grave finch]

that's a lot of words to say exactly what I said with like 3

[open oak]

But what are you expecting then? That no one gives his opinion?😂

[limpid flicker]

What you said didn't add anything though. Everyone gives their opinion in this kind of conversation.

[grave finch]

saying opinions as facts is weird then people getting triggered by my opinion is even sadder

[tired hare]

Something which you and many people have played and agreed that it's good for a specific category of game is something of an unbiased opinion (aka an objective opinion - democracy)
Hollow Knight is one of the best platformers in terms of lore, gameplay, progression, etc. That, is an unbiased game recommendation, since it's not me being a prick about it, but giving genuine information.

[limpid flicker]

Misusing the word 'triggered' is even sadder.

[open oak]

Guys calm down and lets just talk about games hehe

[limpid flicker]

I don't really agree with you on terminology, but still... Yakuza. That's my answer. 🙂

[open oak]

I have never played yakuza. Is it like mafia games?

[tired hare]

Now you can go hit me with something, because i said that without even opening the game.. (made an opinion without playing the game thyself)

[vagrant mica]

I got bored with valhalla very quickly

[open oak]

Me too, too quick

[fiery python]

Same

[open oak]

I wanted to play to get thors hammer but then i came to know its an endgame weapon

And im like so i grind the whole game and get the weapon for what? You cant even use it anymore

[limpid flicker]

Comparable, but not really similar IMO. You see, Mafia games have driving and gunplay as core components, while Yakuza games have brawling as their primary interaction. They're comparable in the sense that both are games about people involved in organised crime. Even on that basis I love Yakuza infinitely more.

[open oak]

And hell no im going to play another playtthrough again with new game +

[tired hare]

Personal take: If a game has too much gameplay area, don't expect all of it to be good if the game didn't take literal years in development

Anyways, when's Silksong?

[grave finch]

you got Valhalla all wrong, can't use the hammer outside the dream sequences

[open oak]

I can agree on this

[limpid flicker]

Silksong will happen when the world attains harmony.

[vagrant mica]

I still have dark souls 2, 3, bloodborne, demon souls and elden ring to play

[grave finch]

but it happens I guess when you let other people tell you what to think of a game without even playing it

[cerulean basin]

I personally enjoyed the different stories of each region, they each gave their corresponding arc a distinct flavor

[tired hare]

We did get 2.2 before GTA VI, so what gives?

[grave finch]

especially the northern Regions, the snowy mood was excellent

[tired hare]

It is me to blame..

[limpid flicker]

TBH I'm not 100% sure what 2.2 is referring to in this context.

[vagrant mica]

Every time I think of 2.2, it’s about geometry dash

[tired hare]

Geometry Dash. The 2.2 update took more than half of the 10 years the game has existed.

[limpid flicker]

Not a game I'm familiar with, at all. Sorry to say.

[mystic scaffold]

How do I turn off x box one s bluetooth?

[limpid flicker]

What do you really mean? XBOX One S doesn't have Bluetooth. The controllers have it for use with PC, but why do you need to turn it off?

[mystic scaffold]

yes

ı dont want play in computer its enyoing

[cerulean basin]

As Sol said, Xbox consoles do not have bluetooth

[tired hare]

Eh, if you're not into arcades, perfectly fine. Personally don't play that game much, im not that type of guy who will play one game 24/7... (ok i partially am that type of guy but not gd)

[mystic scaffold]

That's the thing about pressing the round button on the console

[tired hare]

You can turn off bluetooth at the PC if the controllers are connecting to it instead of the console.

[mystic scaffold]

its doesnt worked

[limpid flicker]

Or you can tell your computer to 'forget' a device.

[mystic scaffold]

I want to play x box, not on the computer

[fallow moat]

Unstable Light defeats the boss!

[sage ice]

resync the controller to the console

[cerulean basin]

When you turn on the controller, press the Sync button and repair it with the console by pressing the Sync button on it as well. It will stop turning your PC on.

[mystic scaffold]

hmm i will do

[halcyon stratus]

https://www.theverge.com/22273528/how-to-xbox-series-x-controller-swap-connection-phone-pc

[mystic scaffold]

sync is button on charging port?

[sage ice]

yes, by the USB port

[mystic scaffold]

oke

If I do this, I will play x box right

Because I asked someone, there was a bug in a game and strange things happened to my x box.

[sage ice]

huh?

[mystic scaffold]

?

[halcyon stratus]

There are no game bugs that can break a controller. Just not possible.

[mystic scaffold]

no not like that

[sage ice]

then like what?

[subtle shuttle]

🇵🇷

[mystic scaffold]

While I was playing fifa 24 club, my friend was going to do a 1v1, but I didn't show up on it (I just bought FIFA), it didn't work either, I didn't show up with my other friends, he told me to press the circle, he said connect it to the computer, he said you can play from there....

Then the computer mechanics became very annoying
I asked me how to turn it off, he said hold down sync, nothing happened, my only X button was blinking.

[halcyon stratus]

Okay. Well follow the instructions to resync your controller to your Xbox and go have fun

[mystic scaffold]

thx

[tired hare]

Having both types of emotion is kinda meh

Im both amazed on how i made a phone which doesn't support a12 and higher run a13 and the pixel experience, and sad because literally everything i attempted yet works perfectly EXCEPT WiFi. WiFi just refuses. Turns on for a second, searches for networks, finds nothing, coming back to the menu and it's just like you didn't turn it on.

[limpid flicker]

You uhh, you made a phone?

[tired hare]

I made a phone run something which it wasn't supposed to. Is this understandable?

[limpid flicker]

Oh sorry, I see how I should have read it before. I just had a brain moment.

[sage ice]

That gets into #rules 12

[tired hare]

How the hell does tinkering with phones fall under rule 12, please?

[sage ice]

"I made a phone run something which it wasn't supposed to"

[mystic scaffold]

its worked thanks a lot

[tired hare]

Soo..? I made the phone run a newer version of android, not linux packaged with metasploit/insert other bad things

[sage ice]

jailbreaking etc falls under the rule

[buoyant trail]

Whenever i click on the pair button in my series X it wont flash and wont pair my controller which is flashing

Does anyone know where i can find help cuz support has 2 braincells and cant understand my controller isnt the problem but rather the console

[sage ice]

I guess no where. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[halcyon stratus]

If the light isn’t flashing your console, oh boy do I have news for you

[buoyant trail]

It aint

[buoyant trail]

God just tell me whats wrong with it

[sage ice]

send it in for re-pair

[halcyon stratus]

You’ll need to contact support because it sounds like the console is busted. That light should just start flashing no matter what when you press the button

[foggy skiff]

hi

[halcyon stratus]

Your pun kinda killed me too

[tired hare]

... how does unlocking the bootloader and installing a general system image by simply running a command or two fall under bad or illegal topics...

Rule 12 is such a mess, dude. Where is the entire list for prohibited topics? The brief explanation doesn't fully tell you anything..

[foggy skiff]

I just noticed, DoPeY is DoPeY again

[buoyant trail]

I still have warranty on it so im good 😮‍💨

[vagrant mica]

https://tenor.com/view/slenderla2-gif-3016664853626719831

[halcyon stratus]

There is no “entire list” because people would try to “rules lawyer” it if there are.

Common sense and “intent of the rule” are good enough

[buoyant trail]

I swear y'all got the worst advices here

All i had to do was turn the power off for 1 minute and it fixed

[gleaming crest]

https://tenor.com/view/aew-mjfaewpopcorn-mjf-popcorn-gif-25322465

[sage ice]

The way you were talking, figured you already did a reboot

[gleaming crest]

isnt tht like the first step of troubleshooting

in general

[buoyant trail]

Didnt work for my 1st try

I did it for less time now and it worked luckly

[tired hare]

Nobody says that a phone is bootlooping if it restarted once and not like thrice.

Whom is to say that one restart was enough to make it clear that it's not helping

[vagrant mica]

There are plenty of troubleshooting options listed in #1091756150644555946 that you should always try before sending in for repair

[halcyon stratus]

I can’t believe someone would go online and rant about getting help by literally didn’t try the very first step of troubleshooting any electronic device every created

[buoyant trail]

Read the rest

[tired hare]

Common sense shouldn't mark something what the product is capable of doing instead of what stock allows as bad nor illegal action.. Still waiting for an answer for the first question.

[surreal hamlet]

Watching live TV for the first time in forever cause my neighbour is on a gladiator show 🤣

[halcyon stratus]

If we’d said “turn it off and on again” you’d have replied “I did. One brain cell level advice”

[ebon estuary]

Is there any way to be removed from somebody else’s friends list since blocking them apparently only removes them from your list?

[stray beacon]

Do the halo games have unique dialog for legendary? I noticed that when I started halo CE on heroic that Johnson's speech was different and was wondering if it happens for legendary also

[halcyon stratus]

No because it is a “followers” list then. It is weird.

[ebon estuary]

Wow, that’s a god awful system

[surreal hamlet]

Dang my neighbour actually kinda good at this

[ebon estuary]

I want to change my gamertag but not have somebody I don’t want on my friends list see it

[halcyon stratus]

Why? If someone follows you nothing happens.
Block them if you want

[ebon estuary]

see above lol

[halcyon stratus]

Block them

[ebon estuary]

It’s mostly a thing of I want to change my gamertag but don’t want them to see it so they can’t find my discord from it

[halcyon stratus]

So block them

[dark sparrow]

Yes

[ebon estuary]

But if they still follow me, wouldn’t they see my new gamertag?

[halcyon stratus]

Not if you block them

[ebon estuary]

Hmmm

[vagrant mica]

If you block them you are removed from their list

[ebon estuary]

Does that also clear message history?

[vagrant mica]

no

[buoyant trail]

Btw did they make gamertag changes more expensive?

It was always 10 even back in Microsoft point days lol

[red ledge]

thanks and sorry for my behaviour earlier

[buoyant trail]

A couple days ago on my phone it asked for 8

[haughty shard]

Coupon applied or sum lol

[buoyant trail]

That was the 1st time i wanted to change it too but it still wanted to charge me because i have a special username or smth

[haughty shard]

Hmm not sure what's going on bossman lmao

[halcyon stratus]

If your username wasn’t automatically generated then you’ve already changed it once for free

[haughty shard]

I wasted my free name change rip

[buoyant trail]

Thats aweful ngl no one wants a random name

[halcyon stratus]

Okay

[tired hare]

If im going to have an Xbox gamertag, that free change is wasted in seconds

[vagrant mica]

I won’t change my GT again

[haughty shard]

I for MNslim#8301
Then AHighChef

I got 2.....confusion 😵‍💫😵‍💫

[halcyon stratus]

You only need one

[haughty shard]

My games been using highchef so what's the mnslim doin there lol

[sage ice]

I still use an account with the random given name

[tired hare]

[vagrant mica]

I think the # system isn’t supported in a lot of games so they used the 2nd username

[scarlet river]

Some of those random names are fly af!

[haughty shard]

Xbox gt generator be like: *Warm Towel2310

[vagrant mica]

My first gt was like gamer3682837 so I wasn’t gonna keep that

[scarlet river]

Don't forget to bring a towel!

[haughty shard]

My first was GHO5T JMAN33

[lunar tartan]

My first gamer tag was Xbox generated and I don’t remember what it was

[haughty shard]

Woah I'm driving rn I thought someone said something about 1st gamertag I'm dead that was really random🤣

Oh u did u know what no more phone

Hi

[surreal hamlet]

Ain't no way stumble guys, the blatant fall guys copy is coming to xbox

[autumn hare]

Does rdr2 run native 4k on series x?

[cerulean basin]

Runs the same as on the One X, which is 4K at 30 FPS

Though you will get much faster loading times at least

[autumn hare]

Yeah, i might buy it for series x just for 4k, cuz i believe its not 4k on ps5 right?

[stray beacon]

I believe it's still 1080 on ps5

[autumn hare]

If i buy xbox one disc version do i still get the 4k?

[stray beacon]

Never mind it's 2160 on ps5

[sage ice]

disc and digital is the same

[autumn hare]

Or is there a xbox one x version?

[autumn hare]

Says on google it has 1920x2160p and not 4k

[stray beacon]

Yeah

[winter forum]

1920x2160 is a real odd resolution

[coral gazelle]

Bro my Xbox account got hacked and I can’t get it back cause of this terrible automatic system

[tired hare]

I just bought dying Light. I'm so excited damn

[stray beacon]

Dying light is so good

Both dying light games are in my top 5

[tired hare]

I can't say it is good without playing it. But, back in the day when i was 12-13 I watched a lot of dl videos. I dont remember now, so im so excited.

[coral gazelle]

I’m done I’m selling my Xbox series x

[stray beacon]

Okay

[tired hare]

I have a friend that i can play coop with him

[stray beacon]

Co-op in dying light is very fun

[cerulean basin]

Ah... and done! 😁

[sage ice]

GG

[winter forum]

Yay

[tired hare]

I wonder what can i do with that G point?

[cerulean basin]

You can do what I just did: show it

[stray beacon]

My biggest regret in life is dropping all of my top tier weapons for my bf in dying light and then him ghosting me a couple of weeks later 💀

[tired hare]

Nothing else?

[winter forum]

Sucks but could have been worse 😦

[hearty jolt]

I went into my storage and I found all my old 360 games and N64

[tired hare]

Damn, thats tough...

[cerulean basin]

Nope, that's about all you can do with it. It's a way of displaying your progress in games.

[halcyon stratus]

You can exchange them

[tired hare]

Oh i get it. I bought my Series S recently, so I'm keeping learn something everyday

[lunar tartan]

I’ve been playing a lot of Fortnite team rumble lately idk why but it’s so much more fun this season

[halcyon stratus]

It is a 1:1 ratio exchanging gamerscore to gamer points

[winter forum]

What

[tired hare]

What can i get with that?

[hearty jolt]

I’m gonna see if I have left 4 dead 2

[covert yoke]

Guys

[halcyon stratus]

My joke was too subtle lol

[hearty jolt]

I miss the days when game developers made a finish game

[covert yoke]

Has anyone bought teardown for xbox

[sage ice]

why?

[covert yoke]

Is teardown on console any good?

[sage ice]

it is fun

[tired hare]

Sarcastic friends are funniest

[hearty jolt]

Maybe 🤔

[scarlet river]

I thought teardown, like what "iFixit" does with new devices.

[tired hare]

@stray beacon do you play Far Cry games?

[sage ice]

it looks like minecraft in a way, and you distroy things

[covert yoke]

Hell yeah

[hearty jolt]

Back in my days games were fished with no DLC 🥸

I miss Far Cry 2 that was a good one

[covert yoke]

How much would it take to finish it

[scarlet river]

Ok. 👍

[scarlet river]

That sounds like fun

[tired hare]

I've played FC3 recently. Damn this game is so good.

[hearty jolt]

Yes 💪🏻

[stray beacon]

I played some of 3 but never got far into it

[tired hare]

But, FC5 was Meh, it has short and bad story

[hearty jolt]

Classics are the best 💪🏻 360 are the best 💪🏻

[covert yoke]

Which ones

[stray beacon]

3

[covert yoke]

Ohhh

[cinder veldt]

Bun Dem

[hearty jolt]

Oh halo 3

[tired hare]

What does that mean?

[stray beacon]

Me and my little brother were dominating in team doubles in halo yesterday and the enemy team got so mad they kept tbagging us everytime we died

[hearty jolt]

Ya that’s a good one the best 💪🏻

[covert yoke]

The song

[cinder veldt]

That song plays during one of the missions, we meant far cry right?

[tired hare]

I usually disable musics...

[covert yoke]

Bruh

[cinder veldt]

Missing out on some great game soundtracks imo

[tired hare]

I use hearing aid, so..

Noises hurt my ears

[cinder veldt]

Fair point

[hearty jolt]

I remember G4 tv having a t bagging guard before halo 3 came out I miss the early 2000s lol

[tired hare]

By the way, not all games.

[hearty jolt]

Dose anyone remember G4 tv with that gears of war skit

[cerulean basin]

I managed to watch G4 once in my lifetime 😅

[halcyon stratus]

Yea like ET 2600

[hearty jolt]

Far cry 2 and old school

[tired hare]

So, I checked the music again. So, I remembered why i disabled the music

[halcyon stratus]

Back in my day games didn’t have endings they just kept getting faster until they crashed or you couldn’t keep up

[hearty jolt]

Oh now we have greedy companies and lazy developers these days

[fluid creek]

🙄

[cinder veldt]

What about Finnish games?

[halcyon stratus]

Yea, companies in the past didn’t care about money

[hearty jolt]

Oh the memories why can’t we do that

[fluid creek]

Take this somewhere else.

It’s not welcome here.

[tired hare]

I was working in body repairing shop.
So, I can approve this game is legit for learning stuff for car.

[halcyon stratus]

Like when Atari told the devs they had 3 months to make 3 games and they didn’t care about the quality they just wanted 3 things for the shelf by Christmas!

[hearty jolt]

?

[tired hare]

Not so practical tho.

[cinder veldt]

MCS is wonderful game

[hearty jolt]

I’m lost now ?

[tired hare]

Yeah, but playing it is miserable.

[cerulean basin]

"Lazy developers" who keep making games bigger than ever before, with increasingly more complex systems every year, constantly updating to newer tech, better graphics, better audio... so lazy...

[tired hare]

Roads worst than Balcan roads...

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

[fluid creek]

Yeah anchel stop sleeping on the job

[cinder veldt]

The roads in MCS seem fine?

[halcyon stratus]

So where is Snowflake Clicker?

[hearty jolt]

Oh no 🤣

[tired hare]

The narrow roads?

[cerulean basin]

Never. I'm a lazy dev.

[sweet wave]

Do we have any mod on this chat?

[tired hare]

Oh, sorry i forget that i was playing 20 FPS.

[sage ice]

Mods are not here to help

[fluid creek]

Mods are not support

[hearty jolt]

I miss 360

[sweet wave]

how do i get support?

[weary solar]

For support, head over to #1091756150644555946 and read through the pinned Self help topic as well as search to see if your issue has been solved previously and you can solve the issue on your own. If you still need assistance, you can create a new post, but please read through the post guidelines first.

NOTE: This is community sourced support and there is no official support here on Discord. People will help if/when they are able to. If you have an issue regarding your account and/or billing, reach out to official support at https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/ for assistance.

[sage ice]

The bot told you

[cinder veldt]

If the Finland roads are anything like Swedish small town roads, it's basically accurate in MCS

[tired hare]

Yeah, but for me its miserable to drive on that road.
Our roads are so large.

[halcyon stratus]

People will literally rather waste a half hour rather than make a post lol

[sweet wave]

yeah the website contact bot is not working and they havent fixed the past issues on the community support channel so ..

[hearty jolt]

I was playing Halo 3 with my bros yesterday and we had a awesome time 💪🏻

[sullen forum]

Though based on your last message Mavix, the controller is connecting to the device and only not working in the game on VR, so you need to talk to the VR game dev

[fluid creek]

What “post issues”

[sullen forum]

So literally not an Xbox issue anyway

[hearty jolt]

Is there any way we could get an 360 controller onto Xbox one system ?

[sullen forum]

No

[halcyon stratus]

What account did you use last time you posted in community support, I’ll go look at the question!

[sage ice]

buy the new Hyperkin 360 remake controller

[halcyon stratus]

I’m waiting to go to Starbucks to get a breakfast sandwich then gonna come home and make some hot cocooaoao

[hearty jolt]

We need a 360 controller on Xbox one

[tired hare]

When I was trying to link my PS4 social club acc to Xbox. I accidentally deleted my social club acc

[cinder veldt]

Hyperkin...

[halcyon stratus]

#general-chat message

[vagrant mica]

Wired controller though

[sage ice]

https://www.amazon.com/Hyperkin-Xenon-Controller-Windows-Gaming-Console/dp/B0C5DXD7R3/

[halcyon stratus]

I feel like I’ve only seen 1 3rd party wireless controller. Most are wired. Maybe the wireless licensing is expensive

[hearty jolt]

I’ll check in out thanks for the info

[sweet wave]

Is there a place where I can get help from xbox?

[fluid creek]

…

No.

[stray beacon]

Speaking of hyperkin. I was maybe thinking of picking up the duke remake controller to play some classic halo with

[sage ice]

Headsets do it though

[sweet wave]

ok thank you

[sullen forum]

Your problem is for the game developer of the game you're trying to play, not Xbox

[tired hare]

Does "worth" questions count as Support questions???

[sage ice]

worth is subjective.

[halcyon stratus]

I wouldn’t be surprised if audio and input are different

[sage ice]

I didnt think of that, good point

[hearty jolt]

Do you guys remember when adult swim had that Reddit like post for people on Xbox to have people meet up and hang out on 360 ?

[halcyon stratus]

Audio is a read only signal but input is a transmit too? Idk I have never had to deal with licensing of that type before. But on the software side the marketing people could come up with the most insane licensing requirements

[sweet wave]

hmm it could be. Im new to xbox this so I might be doing something wrong. Idk Im gonna try calling tomorrow once they open.

[tired hare]

I bought a JBL Quantum 100 for my Xbox. I dont know if it's not that good.
As my friend told me it's good

[sullen forum]

I'm telling you, Xbox support won't be able to help you. Your controller connected to your VR headset, that means the controller is working.

Anything past that means it's a problem with the game not using the proper API to read the input.

[hearty jolt]

I saw a pretty good movie yesterday

[cinder veldt]

Was it FNAF movie?

[hearty jolt]

Has anyone seen that movie the Black phone that Steven king film

[winter forum]

Cell?

[hearty jolt]

The black phone 📞

[tired hare]

Never heard of it

[hearty jolt]

I like Steven king films not all of them I would recommend this one

[tired hare]

Since 6-7 months, I didn't watch anything...

I'm in depression i think

[hearty jolt]

Everyone is

[tired hare]

Dayum

Only one i know who isn't in depression has to be my cousin. He's 1 years old and eats, sleeps, some human things. Repeat, and happy.

[haughty shard]

With Ethan Hawke. It's a good movie

[hearty jolt]

I just chill out I tell my friends if somebody mad at you for being you it say it’s more about them then you 😎

[median plaza]

Any suggestions for a list of games that are the best for getting used to play first person shooters on a Xbox gamepad?
I was a PC gamer but stoped playing about 15 years ago. Now I bought a Xbox series X but I can't get used to FPSs control with the gamepad.

Any game suggestions for easing the transition from keyboard and mouse on a PC to my first console I've bought, my new Series X.

Can anyone help me?

[rain vale]

Man, I wanna play Sonic & SEGA all- stars racing (2010) on my xbox so bad, I wish it was backward compatible.

[hearty jolt]

Just keep being yourself @tired hare don’t let clowns bother you 👍🏻

[sweet wave]

Hmm maybe. I can browser thru games but once I open the game the controller wont resond .. I still see the blue dot and I hear the sound when i click but it wont give any action

[sage ice]

spamming the statement wont make it true

[vagrant mica]

COD

Literally any call of duty game

[median plaza]

Really? Never tried it, are the controllers any good on gamepad? Which version?

[hearty jolt]

So how can you get to post gifs and pictures I’ve seen people who can do that

[vagrant mica]

COD has a lot of aim assist so it’s the easiest to get used to imo

I'm not depressive person btw. I just lost something's recently.

[median plaza]

Cool.
Thanks a lot. I was afraid the COD would be the hardest as it was a PC first for a long time

[vagrant mica]

I would probably go for the newest one, which is modern warfare 3

[hearty jolt]

Favorites got it 👍🏻

[vast verge]

Is starfield capted on 30fps on series s

[fluid creek]

Earning it isn’t favorites

[vagrant mica]

yes

[median plaza]

Thanks a lot

[sullen forum]

I mean, I'm literally a Principle Software Dev at Xbox who has worked in the input stack and worked with games because they screw up exactly this thing, but feel free to still question my experience and explanation.

[vast verge]

Is it also 30 on x

[vagrant mica]

yes

[tired hare]

So Favorites are who earned

[sullen forum]

It's literally bot controlled

[vagrant mica]

You just need to speak a lot for a while to get it

[sullen forum]

There is no favorites

[vagrant mica]

And follow the rules otherwise you can get blacklisted

[tired hare]

So, there has to be account points

[digital comet]

Hey guys i have an issue with my xbox series s controller

[tired hare]

Stats maybe

[halcyon stratus]

So you’re saying you’re not a citable source

[hearty jolt]

I have issues with my Xbox series x

[digital comet]

Whenever i try to scroll through things with my controller it automatically clicks 2 times instead of 1. Any solutions?

[cerulean basin]

Restart the console, I've seen it happen sometimes

[digital comet]

It still happens after it.

[hearty jolt]

I have an problem with my Xbox series x

[sage ice]

you have seen the support message from the bot already

[vast verge]

Fully shut down

[hearty jolt]

No I didn’t see it never mind

[coral gazelle]

Can you like fix the automated bot recover thing and make it human

[sage ice]

[lunar tartan]

[sullen forum]

I just have to become Dr Noonien Soong, clearly

[tired hare]

Microsoft store for Xbox isn't available for some countries. This is little sad man

[winter forum]

Something something AI something something lazy dev?

[vast furnace]

Will Xbox ever add a YouTube music app

[molten briar]

Cortana, write ai bot code

[fiery python]

That's up to YouTube, not Xbox

[winter forum]

Ok, ordering bacon

[molten briar]

[tired hare]

Haraaam haraaamm

[vast furnace]

Oh 😔

[limber carbon]

Oh, now I wonder if the instant achievement unlock co-op method works for stranded deep?

[winter forum]

Is the process of writing an app the same as writing an ID@Xbox title in terms of process and approval?

[molten briar]

No

[winter forum]

Is there a resource I can nose at to understand the difference?

[chrome ether]

[thin nimbus]

Does anyone know what lebo cast is ? For samsung smart view?

[lunar gorge]

Can someone give me a 400 dollar pc to build my mom won't let me get on more expensive

[fiery python]

Seriously?

Wait, are you asking if someone can show you a build spec? Or to actually give you a PC?

[thin nimbus]

I think he's asking if someone can actually give him a pc it sounds like to me

[open bison]

Question, can any of you sign into Xbox live on 360 games?

[sage ice]

yes

[open bison]

Because as you've probably seen in the community support channels this was a bit of an issue

[sage ice]

I was just logged in playing a 360 game less than an hour ago

[open bison]

Can you sign into black ops 1

Because for some reason I STILL can't

[sage ice]

I will not even try that game lol

[native tide]

Is Advertising allowed @fiery python ?

[sage ice]

no

[fiery python]

If you're unsure if something is allowed, a good place to start is by reading the rules.

[native tide]

I did but im not sure i found it.

[fiery python]

You can't have read far then

Oh k

[sharp oyster]

Hey

[open bison]

Okay so confirmation, the issue with connecting to live on WaW, BO1 and BO2 is still a problem

I really hope this gets fixed soon.

[halcyon stratus]

It is noon on a sunday, I doubt any major patches were pushed out to the servers Saturday night

[open bison]

I mean fair, but can you blame me for being hopeful?

[halcyon stratus]

And there is a whole tech support thread for this anyway

[open bison]

I know, posted a thread about it last night, that's how I learned it wasn't just a me problem

[halcyon stratus]

Then you already know where to go to see the status ?

[craggy stratus]

guys ima switch to ps4

[halcyon stratus]

keep both then you can play all the games

[fiery python]

Have fun

[open bison]

Eh, more people stay in general, that and I'm still new to the server

[halcyon stratus]

and remember: ps4 can't play all the current-gen PS5 games either

[craggy stratus]

aight ty

[minor island]

is the xbox direct event an actual legit event thats worth watching , or they going to be showing indie games ?

[halcyon stratus]

indie games are legit games?

[open bison]

I mean what's wrong with indie

[mellow roost]

^

[craggy stratus]

the reason im switching to ps4 is bc i can't afford gamepass and my parents wont let me

[quasi echo]

you have to pay to play online on all consoles

[open bison]

Heck, be honest, the only reason you probably know as many indie games as you do is because of it getting spotlit in directs

[craggy stratus]

say what now 🙂

[open bison]

...and YouTube let's players of course but that's a no duh

[halcyon stratus]

you'll have to buy games either way lol

[mellow roost]

Yeah playing on PS isn't just magically free or something.

[craggy stratus]

ill just play the free ones

[minor island]

not for me

[quasi echo]

yes xbox stated it. but all consoles do it

[halcyon stratus]

Xbox without game pass: pay for games
PS4 without PS Now: pay for games

[halcyon stratus]

that's sad.

[mellow roost]

Irrelevant. Indie games are real games. Be respectful of small devs and their efforts.

[minor island]

PS4 ? thats outdated af

[craggy stratus]

ffs ive been playing fortnite for free on xbox and now i cant do it on ps?

[open bison]

So what you're saying is you'd rather be a sheep for corporations than support small people putting blood sweat and tears into their work?

[minor island]

i can be greatful for something i dont play or use

[craggy stratus]

my friend is giving me his old one

[lunar tartan]

I’m listening to Kylie’s playlist today to find new music

[mellow roost]

You can, but why would you need to switch just for a free game?

[open bison]

Pulling your leg btw, idc what you play

[craggy stratus]

bc i dont even have a console i js have the contorller

[mellow roost]

Oh.

Okay now all this makes sense.

[sharp oyster]

Hey Miss Kylie how are you doing

[mellow roost]

Doing alright. Not much new here.

[craggy stratus]

ill only be playing rl and fn on ps maybe smthn eles like roblox hopefully

and i can play cod warzone so its 👍

[vast verge]

Is it better to fully shut down or just do normal on a series s

[cinder veldt]

Normal

[mellow roost]

You were already given answers about this.

[craggy stratus]

crazy

[vast verge]

Just wanna know others opionons

[craggy stratus]

💀

are we allowed to use gifs?

[vast verge]

No

[mellow roost]

There's really no opinions here as neither option is going to affect the console or the games. The only major difference is whether or not you want to wait 2 seconds to boot or 3.

Totally fair.

We don't want people joining just to spam garbage.

[craggy stratus]

fair enough

but can't you just make a bot that filters and or tracks how many gifs u can send and what is age appropriate or not

[raw quail]

Eric Cartman would never do something like that

[night rapids]

If you look at the announement for the event they've said what they are covering. Its a developer direct, not a big e3 style even with lots of game announcements

[halcyon stratus]

just write a bot that analyzes every single gif on the entire internet and decides an age rating for it and only allows "Rated G" gifs in?

[mellow roost]

Realistically, you don't exactly need to do anything different unless there's some type of electrical storm. That's when I start unplugging things...just in case.

you just proved why rules are needed and why some people can't be trusted to post gifs right away

[long maple]

yes

[raw quail]

yes

[fierce kelp]

Thanks 😊 🫂

[long maple]

its not allowed to only make a game for SeriesX, the S has to be included

[minor island]

it should be the same as nintendo and playstation direct events right

[serene schooner]

If I buy gamepass am I able to play online

[mellow roost]

Game Pass Core or Ultimate, yes.

[craggy stratus]

bro xbox should add more games to cloud gaming

[mellow roost]

They're working on it.

It's not just a simple switch flip.

[long maple]

the developer directs are much different, there are no hosts it just goes straight into their studios to talk about the games they working on

[wintry narwhal]

hello everyone, when do you think S.T.A.L.K.E. 2 will be released

[long maple]

sometime this year maybe

[craggy stratus]

ye but like js make sum of the gamepass games free for like 2 days or a week

[mellow roost]

Lee is finally listening to my music and almost everything they've listened to so far they've liked. I've been trying to get them to listen to my stuff for years but they never wanted to get away from the 5 songs they listen to on repeat. 💀

[serene schooner]

What's core

[craggy stratus]

chun lee?

[long maple]

with Core games are added 2-3 times a year.

[raw quail]

When is Deek coming back?

[serene schooner]

Does core have less games than ultimate?

[halcyon stratus]

Based on the picture I’d say yes

[long maple]

well yeah Ultimate has around 500 right now, Core is on 38 ?

[thin nimbus]

Indie Games are great games a game doesn't have to be a AAA title game to be good

[craggy stratus]

im bored brah

[minor island]

speak for yourself .

[craggy stratus]

honestly js wating for gfn to let me play my game bro

[minor island]

i personaly dont buy indie games

[long maple]

the games that they announced are the ones they are showing.

[craggy stratus]

btw am i the only person who owns a wired xbox contorller

[versed swan]

no you aren't

[minor island]

on pc ?

[craggy stratus]

no on tv

[mellow roost]

Facts don't need to be spoken for anyone. Indie games can be good. You not liking something doesn't make that thing bad.

[haughty shard]

I feel wired is more popular than wireless lmao

[raw quail]

Yes, they ever sold one wired controller, and you are the one who bought it

[minor island]

i play with a wired xbox 360 controller when im gaming on my pc

[craggy stratus]

no my friend gave it to me

[long maple]

Ara History Untold is like a Civ type game, Indiana Jones, Avowed from Obsidian. and well we all know what Hellblade 2 is, been shown for atleast 5 years now

GameStop sells them for $60

[minor island]

Nope

[hollow hawk]

They go for almost nothing on eBay too

[minor island]

actualy i played 1 indie game called exo one it was fun but thats it

[mellow roost]

Have you played Minecraft?

[minor island]

no

[mellow roost]

What do you play?

[hollow hawk]

Can we still call Minecraft an indie game after 10 years and being bought by Microsoft?

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/pizza-slice-mozzarella-gif-9957399

[hollow hawk]

mmmm pizzer

[mellow roost]

I'm not sure, honestly. I still don't get how it all works. 💀

[craggy stratus]

pizzertron 3000

[minor island]

currently , PUBG EAFC and CS

[mellow roost]

Makes sense.

[dark sparrow]

You teasing me

[thin nimbus]

You missing out on great games

[minor island]

like ?

[winter forum]

If Minecraft 2 were released, I wouldn't call it indie. So I don't think it is any more

[mellow roost]

Also, change that number of indie games played to 2, since PUBG isn't AAA.

[minor island]

pubg is AAA

[mellow roost]

Counter Strike is debatable too.

[winter forum]

Portal as well

[minor island]

all popular games that everyone plays its AAA

[hollow hawk]

I define indie games being smaller projects made by a group of people out of their home over more professionally made games having a studio and and more funding for development

[short mantle]

Just because a game is popular, doesn’t meant it’s AAA

[winter forum]

So Hellblade?

[halcyon stratus]

AAA means "Always populAr gAme" right?

[mellow roost]

No. That's not even remotely how it works.

[sage ice]

Fortnite started as an Indie

[minor island]

?

[short mantle]

Epic is not an indie studio, though

[minor island]

@sage ice no fortnite was ran by a one of the biggest studios in gaming

[mellow roost]

Putting it very simply (there's more to it, but just for the sake of argument), it refers to budget and studio size.

[minor island]

some of the indie games are overrpriced ,

[mellow roost]

CoD, Halo, Forza, Spiderman, those are all AAA.

PUBG is absolutely not any of that. It's too jank to be AAA anyway.

[mellow roost]

Has nothing to do with sale price.

Budget means dev cost.

[halcyon stratus]

and some AAA games are too
and some are underpriced
(well, most really)

[sage ice]

PUBG also started as an Indie, then money was dumped into the project

[minor island]

would you rather play an overprised game made by 500 people or an overprised game made by 1 person

[halcyon stratus]

That is probably the silliest question someone has asked me recently

why does it matter?

[fluid creek]

Neither?

[minor island]

have you guys heard of ''the day before'' game ?

[halcyon stratus]

if the game is good, I will play it.

it is absoltuely mind boggling for someone to be concerned with how many people it took to make the game.

if 1 person made a good game then that is awesome if 500 people made a good game then that is also great

[sage ice]

if you think a game is overpriced, don't play it?

[short mantle]

Studio size means nothing. This was made by one person.

https://youtu.be/Poj6iZSZmIA

[minor island]

if GTA 6 was overpriced , you think people is going to stop from playing it ?

[tacit robin]

to me Indie, just means independent so any studio that is independent can be called indie. Normally smaller studios with less funding

[sage ice]

if people thought it was overpriced, they would not buy it

[fluid creek]

@rotund crater no self promo here, friend

[craggy stratus]

im having lung spasms 😭 aka hiccups

[winter forum]

Boo!

[mellow roost]

I hate hiccups. 😩

[sage ice]

Will I buy GTA 6 at launch? Probably not, not my type of game. But once it goes on sale for a price I am willing to pay, sure I will pick it up and play a few hours

[covert yoke]

Can I buy dev mode with my microsoft wallet?

[minor island]

stolen assets

[short mantle]

No

[halcyon stratus]

whatcha makin!?

[minor island]

yes

[winter forum]

This but with every game. Or pretty much every 😄

[fluid creek]

Lmao GTA VI could (and should) be $100 and people will buy it

[craggy stratus]

bai now

[minor island]

thats what im sayin

[fluid creek]

I’m saying $100 is not overpriced

[minor island]

it is !

[fluid creek]

It is not.

[covert yoke]

You pay what you get

[mellow roost]

Something you need to try to understand here is everything you say isn't fact just because you said it. 😄

[halcyon stratus]

Wasn't his fault, and he fixed it.

[queen lotus]

GTA6 should cost the number of times people ask why GTA5 was removed from gamepass.

[covert yoke]

Who doesn’t have gta 5

[minor island]

you guys think a 100$ for a standard edition game isnt overprised ? okkeee lol

[long maple]

you should see the Interview from Rockstar, that goes into how they would love to charge more due to "hours=fun" a person is having and they could charge like $100-$150 as they think games are too cheap right now.

[sage ice]

depends on the game

[mellow roost]

With how much games cost to make and how much inflation has risen for everything else? No.

Games should be $120.

[halcyon stratus]

$100 is not overpriced for a good quality game

I spent $25 at McDonalds a few days ago.

[sage ice]

GTA 6, $100 sure, not overpriced at all. The original Pong on today's console, yeah I would say $100 is overpriced for that

[night rapids]

I recently played The Gap, made by 2 people. It was excellent

[tired hare]

Mmm mcdonalds

[minor island]

lol whos going to play for 120$ for a game , specialy if its fifa or madden or cod

[halcyon stratus]

I spent $85 for two people to eat fish & chips (1 person) and a cheeseburger (1 person) at a sit-down restaurant friday

[haughty shard]

I'd pay 120 for madden lol

[trail harness]

The more time I can/think I can get out of a game the more I'm willing to spend on it tbh

[halcyon stratus]

$100 for a game that I'm going to play for months?
sounds like a good deal!

[minor island]

bruh

[winter forum]

me planning on spending £450 on steak next month 💀

It's an exceptionally special occasion though tbf

[trail harness]

tfw someone buys more money in steak than my video card cost

[sage ice]

I just spent $700 on ceramic film yesterday ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[minor island]

months ? it takes me 8 hours to compelete main story in most games

[winter forum]

Once in a lifetime across a billion years deal. Even if we time travel, it's still not happening again

[sterile sequoia]

Ah yes steak 🙂 ive tried wagyu recently when i was at Horecava (big event) amazing taste

[trail harness]

Call of Duty campaigns maybe... but RPGs? X to doubt.

[minor island]

im not an RPG guy i couldnt tell you

most of modern games are microtransactions anyway

[winter forum]

Tbh I only cheap out on games because I'm like the inverse of fomo. By the time I actually get to play something, it's been on a shelf that long I could have saved cash by just buying it when I actually have time. So just....do that

[minor island]

imagine paying 100$+ and microtransaction

[static whale]

IDK WHAT TO PLAYGHYHGHYYY😭😭😭😭😭

[long maple]

click the Surprise Me button

[trail harness]

Most of the games I play have no microtransactions... just DLCs

[sage ice]

I have. If it is a game / studio I want to support.

[winter forum]

What's ceramic film?

[sage ice]

window tint on my car

[minor island]

thats weird , because most of the games i know has microtransaction

[queen lotus]

No need. People already do.

[sage ice]

What does ceramic film do?
Firstly, when it comes to UV protection and heat rejection, ceramic tint comes out on top. Its advanced construction helps to block nearly 99% of harmful UV rays and reject a significant amount of solar heat, making your ride cooler and protecting your car's interior from sun damage.

[dark yoke]

You don’t wanna know about me then 👀

[winter forum]

Fair enough

[short mantle]

I’ve probably spent around $1000 just on Destiny’s dlc’s and cosmetics.

[minor island]

wtf

[long maple]

and over the years I must of spent around that just buying Ultimate Team packs on FIFA

[sage ice]

He likes the game, he enjoys it, he has no problem spending money on it

[halcyon stratus]

So basically me and Diablo 4

[trail harness]

and even the ones I play that do have microtransactions, they're so out of the way that I don't notice lol.

[night rapids]

Investing in games you love means they can make more games

[haughty shard]

I was exaggerating a bit but I do love madden🤣🤣 I'd pay 100 max

[minor island]

well you do you guys , but personaly paying more than 70$ for some pixels on my screen is beyond crazy

[halcyon stratus]

God and Metzen only know how much I’ve spent on WoW over the years

[winter forum]

People spend money on what they like and what they think it's worth to them. And most hobbies have very expensive "stuff" with them

[dark yoke]

True but I gotta have the skins

[halcyon stratus]

Wait until inflation continues through this year lmao

I spent $80 on pet skins in wow last week when there was a sale

[dark yoke]

I’ve probably spent about $20,000 on MTX over last 10 years, so about $2K per year.

[minor island]

the higher then number gets the less people are intrested in payed games and the higher piracy will rise .

[dark yoke]

Well, GamePass is a thing now

[winter forum]

Only thing I've spent that kinda cash on is my mortgage 😂

[minor island]

we r not talkin about gamepass

[dark yoke]

My mortgage is almost done, I pay £240 a month

[minor island]

i do love gamepass

[winter forum]

Did you start buying something in 1886 or smth? That's incredibly low

[trail harness]

wind is howling outside today and we got hit with yet more snow 😦

[dark yoke]

Nah this house I got 8 years ago with a big deposit and kept paying chunks off - and I remortgaged when the interest rates were low so I’m on a 1.3% rate atm

[winter forum]

Oh lucky then

[dark yoke]

Yeah, super, it’s a large 3 storey house too.

Was built brand new when I bought it.

[raw quail]

We are all moving in 🙂

[winter forum]

Is your kitchen on the middle floor?

[dark yoke]

No. It’s not a town house.

[winter forum]

Ok

[dark yoke]

For $1,000 a month you can all move in my back garden can hold like 50 people easy 😄

[winter forum]

I'd say yeah but I ain't making no pizza for 50 people

[dark yoke]

49 then and I’ll make 1 😂

[raw quail]

I want mine with cheese

[dark yoke]

I want mine with cheese 2 plz

[winter forum]

Grrr

[raw quail]

I want 4 different kinds of cheese on mine please

[dark yoke]

Four Cheese Pizza the best

[high onyx]

Hi

[scenic igloo]

pineapple pizza is the best

[dark yoke]

We’re just going to ban you now

[scenic igloo]

ayo

[night rapids]

pineapple on pizza is fantastic

[dark yoke]

[scenic igloo]

LESSGOO

[night rapids]

especially when having BBQ sauce base instead of regular pizza sauce

[barren bronze]

I need to show an image

[dark yoke]

Show

[barren bronze]

Where can I show because I dont have perms its about an xbox 360

[night rapids]

guess we're no longer friends...bye, it's been fun

[dark yoke]

But - I like pineapple! Just, not cooked on bread and cheese 🙏✨

[night rapids]

[dark yoke]

[fiery python]

Try explaining with words first

[barren bronze]

Can i dm someone an imaage, its about a xbox 360 cord

[barren bronze]

So its a cord and im not sure if I bought the right thing

Im trying to show a pic as an example

[fiery python]

Use Google images to find a pic of what it should look like and compare it.

[halcyon stratus]

Nope

[barren bronze]

Will a falcon power cable work on zephyr console?

[fluid creek]

Only works for manticores and Anubis

[barren bronze]

Oh my

I’m swear i can only find a zephyr cord for like $70

And i bought a falcon one

[worn raft]

What do yall think bout the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 4X i think

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/emma-stone-easy-gif-20311498

[spring kernel]

hey yall

[sour herald]

Hi

[spring kernel]

i have a question but idk where to post it and get an instant reply without breaking the rules lol bc apparently i cant in #pc-gaming

[halcyon stratus]

if a question breaks the rules, then there isn't anywhere to post it probably

[barren bronze]

So my falcon psu cord wont work with my zephyr 360?

[long maple]

you will have to research this, we are majority just gamers here. I havent used a 360 in years

[halcyon stratus]

my 360 has been in storage for years too but "Buy the thing that comes with it" is a good piece of advice

an incredibly fast internet search shows they literally wouldn't even physcially connect

[sullen forum]

I was literally about to say that 😄

Different power supplies, different connectors

Took me 30 seconds to search it

[barren bronze]

Im gonna be so mad if it doesnt

[sullen forum]

It literally doesn't work

So may as well go be mad at yourself for not spending the 30 seconds to research online before buying

[halcyon stratus]

there are pictures on the first page of the results that show literal physical differences that will prevent it from plugging in at all.

but, you do you boo!

[serene schooner]

Are there any good marvel/DC games on xbox

[sage ice]

yes

[idle spear]

Arkham trilogy

[cerulean basin]

I enjoyed Gotham Knights, despite some flaws.
And Marvel's Midnight Suns is supposed to be quite good.
We'll soon have Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League next month, but the jury is still out there on that one

Oh, and I can absolutely recommend both Injustice games

[serene schooner]

Kill the Justice League looks cool, what is midnight suns like

[idle spear]

Not got high hopes for suicide squad based on these previews and everything we have heard but will see what it’s like on release

[cerulean basin]

Midnight Suns is a tactical game similar to XCOM

[long maple]

I liked Midnight Suns what I played of it. not sure why I stopped playing oh it might of been one of those freeplay for couple days

[haughty shard]

Midnight Club**

[idle spear]

Some pretty good Spiderman, Xmen and other games like Ultimate Alliance on 360 as well

[limber carbon]

For DC - DC Universe Online

For Marvel: GOTG

[serene schooner]

I'm getting the series S, so I just want to know what type of games I should pair it up with

[cerulean basin]

Oh right, how could I forget about DC Universe Online.
It's also getting a promotion right now for Xbox users I saw, received a DM from Xbox about it

[serene schooner]

What is DC universe online about

[tired hare]

Whenever I tap the menu button on my controller it pulls up the power off screen 😭

[cerulean basin]

It's a free to play MMORPG set in the DC universe.
Basically, an event causes a lot of the population to gain superpowers (so you create your own character with your choice of powers, agility, flight, gadgets...).
And then you go through Metropolis and Gotham advancing through different plots and eventually seasonal events

[raw quail]

Instead of letting our differences in taste separate us, we should come together with our shared love for pizza ☮️🍕

[limber carbon]

And then you go through Metropolis and Gotham advancing through different plots and eventually seasonal events
(And many more maps based on the comics)

[cerulean basin]

Based on whether you go hero or villain and your power types, you also get a different mentor like Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman... or the Joker, Lex Luthor...

[halcyon stratus]

Lux Luthor was a good guy until Kent ruined it all

[serene schooner]

Hmm interesting, is it better than Gotham knights?

[cerulean basin]

Very different type of game

[limber carbon]

It's not comparable.

[cerulean basin]

Gotham Knights is a single player focused open world game where you play as Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood or Red Robin through a set story (you can play in co-op too though). It's action adventure.

[raw quail]

What about Robin Hood?

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/robin-hood-disney-gif-12896244

[cerulean basin]

DC Universe Online is an online RPG, you will always find other players roaming around. Lots of "defeat 40 of these nightmares created by Scarecrow's fear toxin and then talk to Commissioner Gordon to get the next mission.

[uneven river]

I wonder if a gotham city impostors 2 will happen

[barren bronze]

I did

[serene schooner]

Hmm

What other games are there, not necessarily marvel and DC just I like open world games, like spiderman, with a good story and yeah

[dark yoke]

Makes Sense !

[cerulean basin]

The DCU has SO much potential for videogames, really hope Suicide Squad doesn't fail and ends up discouraging WB from trying to make big investments on games from those IPs

[dark yoke]

Superman Returns one of my favourite superhero games of all time ever in the history of time and gaming, forever.

[cerulean basin]

I'd love a remake of Superman 64

[dark yoke]

Remakes are my favourite

[raw quail]

Well, when you’re done with Avatar…

[dark yoke]

I’m hoping for a Gears 2 & 3 remake.

[cerulean basin]

BRB calling my buddies at Warner Bros

[serene schooner]

Me?

[raw quail]

Yeah I guess you can remake Superman 64 too

Yes

[dark yoke]

Take your pic

[cerulean basin]

I'll be done with Avatar.... eventually, maybe this year? Dunno 😛

[raw quail]

Are you using a cable to connect your Xbox to the internet?

Is that the internet test? You can just ignore it if your games are fine
