xbox-cloud-gaming

[tidal rivet]

doubt anyone can answer that, especially not knowing which game

[barren walrus]

What game is it.....

[barren walrus]

Exactly...

[drowsy rock]

pretty sure most people know what game it is considering this is an xbox discord and it's freaking msfs

[barren walrus]

I'm not "most people"

[drowsy rock]

might as well tell me that nobody is going to be able to talk about halo because nobody knows what it is

[barren walrus]

I legit don't know what it means

[tidal rivet]

okay, you were asking when a particular game comes to cloud. you used a short acronym for it, which not everyone may recognize, especially if they don't play that particular game.

[barren walrus]

Is it really that hard to just say the game's name...

I know right

[tidal rivet]

at this point, fairly sure they're talking about Flight Sim, which has no xcloud release date

[barren walrus]

Oh

[cyan lava]

The waiting screen is not that bad, it’s just about 30 secs at most. I’ve never had a game take 5 mins to load on cloud gaming.

[tidal rivet]

same, 10-20 seconds at most for me

[cyan lava]

And I use it on Windows, Xbox One, Android, and iOS

[mild grove]

I've got screenshots from yesterday but can't attach

It says "lots of people are playing" and gives a loading bar + estimate when you can start playing

[cyan lava]

I’ve never had that experience.

I only have that experience with GeForce Now

[tidal rivet]

same, and I play on iOS as well with awful signal

[mild grove]

my signal is terrible because im the only one not sitting right next to my router

[barren walrus]

Same, i keep getting dc'ed every 5 minutes

[tidal rivet]

oh I've never played on WiFi

only my cell data

[cyan lava]

Cell data is terrible in my experience

[tidal rivet]

I usually only have a bit of screen tear

[mild grove]

I only get dc'ed in tabs because it's pretty easy to break the 30 unit limit/get enough going on at once, but i do get interrupted frequently

[cyan lava]

On WiFi, I am close to the router, and it works fine as long as nothing else is streaming

[mild grove]

I'd say stadia is a win in terms of streaming quality

[cyan lava]

You are not wrong

[mild grove]

I just think xcloud is a better service mode, i prefer subscription services

[cyan lava]

It also depends on the device you use for Xbox Cloud Gaming. Apple devices usually are the worst

[tidal rivet]

lol I use my iPhone

[mild grove]

Im android with a kishi

[tidal rivet]

got the backbone for mine

[barren walrus]

Stadia is also good for F2P games you can't run

[mild grove]

And the nearest server is like... a state away lol

[cyan lava]

I used it on iPhone, but I guess I need a new phone because I’m on the 6s and not 8 or newer

[barren walrus]

sadly Stadia isn't available on my country yet....

[mild grove]

I just wish a server opens up in michigan

[tidal rivet]

oh that might make a difference with a newer phone

[barren walrus]

and i don't know any other VPN besides GameEnable

[cyan lava]

I’ve sideloaded the Game Pass app on Android TV and it works better than before with the newer app updates

[nocturne cipher]

I wouldn’t recommend using a VPN for stuff like that… I’m not sure what the terms say for Stadia but I know that’s a violation of Xbox’s terms

[barren walrus]

It's not a violation if you're paying for the service, it'll just be a poor experience as the servers are far away from you

[nocturne cipher]

People use that excuse for Xbox too

Like I said, I’m not sure what Stadia’s terms say…

[mild grove]

not really about xcloud but kishi does have some problems
-dpad is terrible
-passthrough charging doesn't work on some phones
-tied to that OS on weather you buy android or apple, not wireless either

[barren walrus]

People used to abuse MS Rewards point gain with VPNs and QuizBots, that's imo a bad use of VPN

but using it to play a service you're paying, i don't know man

[mild grove]

And no media share

[nocturne cipher]

like I said, I don’t know what Stadia’s terms are, but I’m assuming they’re similar to Xbox’s terms in regards to using VPNs or other means to bypass restrictions

[cyan lava]

Unless on PC

[mild grove]

um, kishi is a phone controller

[cyan lava]

Ah, my bad. I thought you were mentioning Xbox media share

[barren walrus]

How does the gyroscope/motion feature works on mobile xcloud?

i thought it could be used on race games but it didn't work on my end

[oblique fog]

Xbox doesn’t have motion controls, that I know of (beside the Kinect)

[barren walrus]

I mean, yeah but it's a feature on mobile xCloud

[nocturne cipher]

No it’s not…

Where did you see that at?

[barren walrus]

It is.

sent you on dms @nocturne cipher

[hollow narwhal]

why not respond here?

[oblique fog]

Sounds like a phone feature, not cloud gaming feature. Xbox controller doesn’t have gyroscope/motion controls.

[barren walrus]

It's a cloud gaming feature

[hollow narwhal]

still looking for that citation

[barren walrus]

cant send images here @hollow narwhal

[hollow narwhal]

[oblique fog]

I’ll post it

[barren walrus]

https://ibb.co/kgx6sG6

[oblique fog]

Looks like an option with the touch controls. But I don’t even know how gyro controls will work with a top down game.

[barren walrus]

The game running in the background was only used so I could screenshot the control settings

[mild grove]

ain't it weird how 5 ghz connections are recommended for "a more consistent experience" yet im ridiculed with interruptions, controls freezing, and other not very "consistent" bugs?

[worldly coral]

Cable > Wifi

[mild grove]

On a phone.

[worldly coral]

How would I know that? 😄

[mild grove]

idk dude

[fringe kelp]

Same with remote play.

[nocturne cipher]

Pretty sure it’s still in beta, besides, anything requiring an internet connection will have interruptions… Just how tech is

[cyan lava]

Remote play from consoles will work a lot better than the actual data center's servers

[fringe kelp]

You would think.

[night heron]

It doesn't matter how good your connection is, cloud gaming always screws up.

[red jungle]

Just curious do achievements not pop or track during cloud gaming sessions? I’m currently playing Hades as we speak via my Series X and it seems that I’ve made no progress toward any of the achievements shockingly. Any knowledge on this be greatly appreciated.

[cyan lava]

They should pop up similar to the Series X|S and Xbox One. On Windows, it shows up as an achievement if you are playing on Windows.

[humble rune]

Hello 👋

[lament vector]

they do pop up but i also didnt get any achievement while playing hades for some reason

maybe thats because the game doesnt have or has hard achievements

yeah the game doesnt have any achievements

i just looked into its steam page and it doesnt say that the game has achievements

[proud sinew]

If I can get it to connect 😩

[barren walrus]

It's not hard!

[tidal rivet]

Hades may not have achievements on Steam, but it absolutely does on Xbox (49 to be exact). Some of the achievements are hard, and I've also noticed that they sometimes don't show that they've popped when using cloud.

[full walrus]

it does have achievements on steam

https://steamcommunity.com/id/Das_Wonne/stats/1145360/?tab=achievements

[lament vector]

My bad then sorry im just dumb didnt see that the game has achievements on steam

[cyan lava]

You may have to reboot your console for it to work. I have to do that sometimes, since my console is on WiFi.

Reboot, make sure the console signs you in, and then when on the home screen, open and close the guide

[proud sinew]

The last part with opening and closing the guide I haven’t tried yet (seems very macguyvery 😆)

But I’ve tried all the troubleshooting for remote play… it works on my same wifi that the console is connected to at home, but no where else

[mild grove]

volume on full blast and still no sound 😍

And achievements broke. Whoopie. Time to waste another few hours

[past epoch]

hi

its just for me or the xcloud its not working rn?

[mild grove]

Are you getting kicked out of games or are games not starting or?

[mild grove]

Hours later and sound is still broken

[burnt lintel]

how come only some games have touch support?
i get "controller better" but then why add it at all?

hate how i sound whiny when I'm just trying to genuinely ask questions

[mild grove]

And earlier, my tabs custom units were deleted and wiped from the store for no real reason. Okay, so i made a new one. Now, that's gone and the old one is back. How messy is this service 😭

[mild grove]

because some people are more comfortable with touch controls idk

[burnt lintel]

you missed half my message bruh

[mild grove]

your crossed out message has nothing to do with touch controls or controllers but go off

[mild grove]

im gonna go back and see that my units reset AGAIN to the newer ones

[burnt lintel]

"how come only some games have touch controls"

[coarse parrot]

Because its still beta I guess

Btw I don't recommend touch control no fun at all

Just find a cheap controller if you can't afford xbox controller it should be compatible.

[lament vector]

i use touch control when im playing hades

its working really good

[scarlet fiber]

Can you play hades on mobile?

[lament vector]

yes the game has touch controls

[tight tapir]

Did anyone tried clarity boost?

[calm torrent]

Yes!

[past epoch]

bruh i would love if xcloud has raft, house flipper and the famous games

rocket league, etc

[peak forge]

It needs to be games that are on Game Pass, so that rules out Rocket League with it being free to play.

[old hedge]

Hi

[dreamy escarp]

Hello

[old hedge]

Sup

[oblique fog]

#general-chat

[mild grove]

Which i answered

[burnt lintel]

No you didn't???

You answered the questions "why do some games have touch controls"

but I'm asking "why do some have them, and not others"

[lament vector]

well it would be pretty hard to play halo infinite with touch controls

theres touch controls on SoT tho 🤔

[hasty jackal]

Because Xbox didn’t just make a single touch abstraction layer once and then flip a switch to enable it in all things at all times without testing. Touch won’t be a good experience in some games, some developers will not want touch enabled, touch won’t actually even work with some games, so… the world isn’t simple

[tidal rivet]

^^

[barren walrus]

You can just emulate your own touch controls btw

for games with no support, look up on youtube/PlayStore

[shell linden]

Is raft in game pass?

[olive path]

https://www.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-game-pass/games

[shell linden]

The answer is apparently no

[olive path]

Correct.

[shell linden]

You already knew?

[olive path]

Yes

I wasn’t exactly sure though, that’s why I sent you the link to check

[shell linden]

Oh okay

[woeful stag]

Anyone else here been seeing more of the screen wipe or screen refresh as of late?

Especially it seems since after Christmas, which makes me think it might be due to increased traffic to the data centers?

[dusk comet]

whenever I launch a game on cloud gaming with the xbox app on pc the texture quality is so bad and laggy the game just becomes unplayable

[woeful stag]

What about on Xbox have you tried that?

[fathom garnet]

ye

[olive path]

Using Ethernet cable?

[woeful stag]

I am using ethernet and while I don't see lag or blurriness I do get the screen wipe or refresh effect, but it isn't all the time. What would cause this?

[pale sapphire]

Is FIFA 22 available on Xcloud?

Or better question: Where do I see the catalog for the games available?

(FIFA 22 is the newest FIFA right?)

[peak forge]

No

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-game-pass/games

Fifa 22 is not on Game Pass and won't be until at least around May or June.

[pale sapphire]

Thank you

[lavish minnow]

Guys do you have to have your Xbox on to remote play? Or can it be off.

[oblique fog]

You have can turn it off, but needs to have instant-on enable (standby mode)

[cyan lava]

Its optional. But if you do want to remote play to your PC, Laptop, or mobile device via the Xbox app, instant-on needs to be turned on. You can turn it off in the Xbox settings if you don't use it.

[lavish minnow]

Ok thanks I was confused because h there is no instant on setting just standby that helps a lot thanks

[lavish minnow]

Thankyou

[mild grove]

I looooooooove paying for something unplayable

might as well just put in ads full time if i get interrupted every 5 seconds

[hasty jackal]

I don’t see ads all the time… what are you talking at?

[mild grove]

read what i said again

[hasty jackal]

Fine, “ nothing I have is unplayable… what are you talking about”

[mild grove]

Im saying i get interrupted every 5 seconds

Would you or would you not consider that playable?

[hasty jackal]

What is interrupting you “every 5 seconds”? What is “unplayable”? What have you tried to do to resolve this issue? It is clearly not a widespread problem… which means it is resolvable

[mild grove]

No, the stream has a heart attack and interrupts what im playing when the distance between my device and my router changes ever so slightly. Sorry for not having los angeles internet? Sorry for not being tied to my router?

You act like because YOU don't have problems, that everyone else shouldn't either

When it does have one of it's frequent episodes, whatever control i was using (like tilting the joystick in a direction) it will freeze that control until it uninterrupts and let's me play again

Using the joystick example, this causes me to walk into stuff while I can't do a thing

[hasty jackal]

I’m sorry that you couldn’t describe your problem in a non-combative way. Good luck getting your system stabilized!

[fringe kelp]

I have similar issues with remote play.

[mild grove]

thank you! someone who isn't always "blame the consumer"

[devout terrace]

I was trying to play Halo Infinite via Cloud Gaming (on pc with a controller via bluetooth) but it was nearly impossible as it seemed that controller sensitivity was completely different compared to the standard Xbox gameplay experience.

[mild grove]

I'd recommend going wired because wireless controller + bad beta servers aren't a good mix

[devout terrace]

Haven't tried that yet. Will try. Thanks.

[devout terrace]

Does anybody know how does Cloud Gaming manages game settings. For example Halo Infinite graphical settings was automatically set to Performance mode when I run the game via Cloud Gaming. That makes sense. But it means that the settings can't be synced to Xbox settings of the game. But how about the other settings? Does it mean that some settings are synced form Cloud to Xbox and some are not? 🤔 Or are they not synced at all?

[cyan lava]

The settings you'll get when launching a game on Xbox Cloud Gaming will be based on the Xbox Series S

The only settings that you can change that will sync between the cloud and console (that I know of) is audio settings. I don't mess with video settings that much, unless its a PC game, so I couldn't tell you between console and cloud if it works.

[lament vector]

i accidently selected german or something like that in dead space and i cant undo it now

does anyone know how can i make the game english

[old monolith]

try deleting the save data

[nocturne cipher]

In most cases, the save data is connected to your account, so removing it from the console will only make it resync to the cloud when you launch the game…

[nocturne cipher]

If you go into the game settings on the main menu (if there is one), is there a language option? Sometimes language options are under Audio or Video settings as well, depending on the game.

[lament vector]

i couldnt find a language option in the settings

i used google lens to translate the menus

[hard flame]

Is there an option to change your resolution?

[cloud totem]

Streaming on console doesn't support local multiplayer? I only tried some indies tbh. Maybe first party titles works better?

[nocturne cipher]

As far as I know, cloud gaming doesn’t support local co-op at all… I imagine it would be hard to accept inputs from two devices if it’s being played off of a server through another device (the console, in this case).

[cloud totem]

I see. thanks.

[past epoch]

PES2021 its not on xcloud anymore?

[wanton sequoia]

yeah game isnt in Game Pass anymore

you need to look on the Game Pass app, there is a leaving soon list.. games leave every month. you get a 2 week notice before it goes off the service

[mild grove]

so fun playing under a time limit yet get interrupted every 5 seconds

[mild grove]

yeah okay just make fun of me reactions, all my fault for paying for a service everyone was praising when im freezing FOR 3 WHOLE MINUTES

under a time limit

[hollow narwhal]

@mild grove please be a lil less hostile to others

[mild grove]

not my intentions, apologies

[jovial dune]

Has xbox announced when Microsoft flight sim comes to cloud gaming for xbox one?

[cyan lava]

Yes

[jovial dune]

When?

[cyan lava]

Whoops, I totally read your question wrong (I thought you asked if they announced if it was coming to Xbox Cloud Gamign). I would assume it is going to the cloud sometime this year

[jovial dune]

Oh, at least its this year, I can wait some more I've only been waiting for it since they released the trailer in 2019

[hot egret]

How long are the wait times for pc cloud gaming mines been running a little while

[hasty jackal]

Top 'notification' https://support.xbox.com/en-US/

[sage umbra]

Cloud Gaming is amazing

[carmine oasis]

what if internet goes bad

[oblique fog]

Then no game

[knotty path]

Cloud gaming is cool, but people criticize it because its not HD. Its literally getting streamed.

[wide compass]

the issue is that is not avaible for worldwide

[olive path]

It’s OK, I wouldn’t use it for any first person games.

I only use it for 2d games like stardew valley

[knotty path]

I use it for Halo when im not at home

[hazy tusk]

Where can I go to redeem my ultimate gamepass card? The redeem on xbox not coming up

It takes you to your account, but I have scratch off cards?

[nocturne cipher]

https://redeem.microsoft.com/

It should bring you to a page where you put in your code, you might have to sign in first

[hazy tusk]

Yeah thats the. Page but it's all white, you can't do this through a cell?

[nocturne cipher]

It’s not blank for me…

Try an incognito tab and/or a different browser?

[magic sparrow]

it will not work, all xbox redeem methods are crashed

(aka the last discussion by me in #233805809346150400 )

[nocturne cipher]

I’m seeing a couple people who are having issues but that doesn’t mean it crashed

[worldly coral]

Theyre servers were wonky after a maintenance today, might still be buggy for some

[magic sparrow]

in xbox app the app crash

[worldly coral]

Their *

[hazy tusk]

thx you all for looking into it

I put in a call 52 minutes wait time

For someone to call back

[worldly coral]

Xbox store is having issues

[hazy tusk]

Yeah unfortunately that's the story of the world, everything's in chaos lol

[hollow chasm]

It is HD. It’s not UHD though.

[mild grove]

720p is hd

[fathom yacht]

Not anymore.

720p is considered Sub-HD

the signal classification is "HD" but generally it's now deprecated as being HD

due to streaming

[hasty jackal]

Huh? 720 is hd, 1080 is full hd

[fathom yacht]

yeah, that's signal classification

[mild grove]

still hd lol

[hasty jackal]

Yea, words work best when people don’t go and try to change their meaning after 15 years lol

[fathom yacht]

"Full HD" means it's the full-HD, it's a newer term for 1080p

[mild grove]

then complain about it not being full hd, not hd

[fathom yacht]

if it's not full, then it's sub

same reason 720p panels don't ship with the HD label anymore

[gentle trench]

hey is it possible to mark your favorite cloud games? i know you can add games to 'play later' but that doesnt include playing it via cloud. im on PC

[tidal rivet]

I don't know if PC is similar to console, but I add my cloud games to the home screen?

cause it's annoying to have to keep scrolling through the entire gamepass section

[mild grove]

wdym in the game pass app you can mark play later games

[nimble rose]

i still dont get it
are there gonna be spiderman games on xcloud or not?
the subreddit said they dont have a license anymore

[oblique fog]

There’s no Spider-Man game on gp

[nocturne cipher]

Spiderman belongs to Sony afaik, so I don’t think we’ll ever get Spiderman on Xbox

[tidal rivet]

yeah I don't think I've seen any of the big spidey games on xbox

[nimble rose]

yes i know

[mild grove]

microsoft on their way to get millions of subscribers but still rush out (and not fix) their beta servers

[hasty jackal]

They… they are beta…

[mild grove]

which i said

[nocturne cipher]

I’m sure they’re doing their best, you can’t expect Beta stuff to work 100% of the time… You can’t expect this of anything actually, because technical difficulties happen constantly

[hollow narwhal]

beta in software means "not done"

[mild grove]

i know, it just happens so often it irritates me to the brim

[hollow narwhal]

literally expect bugs

[nocturne cipher]

This, can’t quote it enough

[mild grove]

i just don't want to sit next to my router when using a portable phone

[mild grove]

this reminds me of a funny bug i got in superliminal, where when i dropped an object it clipped through the floor

[hasty jackal]

If you have to "sit next to your router" to get your wifi to work, then that is definitely not anything to do with xcloud/microsoft/xbox in any way shape or form.

[mild grove]

it's 50 mbps when away or next to it, but it only interrupts when im away from it

[oblique fog]

There’s wifi congestion. Try using 5 GHz, it’s less likely to have interference.

[mild grove]

i am, and i'll also place some of the blame on myself because roku ALWAYS has wifi on

so i can prob change that connection/unplug it

and my phones wifi chip sucks so it needs to be closer than necessary

[bronze token]

how do i use cloud gaming

Go to Xbox.com/play login with your Xbox account and click play on a game

[fringe kelp]

As long as its available in your region

[dreamy escarp]

Guys if I got games with gold do I keep them

[peak forge]

Only the OG Xbox and 360 games. XB1 games are only playable while you have an active subscription.

[dreamy escarp]

I have an Xbox one

X

[peak forge]

That doesn't matter.

[dreamy escarp]

But there is battle field And I wanna play it so badly

[peak forge]

So buy the game, or pay whatever subscription will get you access to it.

[dreamy escarp]

But it says get with gold

[peak forge]

It's a free play weekend. You won't get to keep that game at all.

If you mean 2042

[dreamy escarp]

Yeah I mean 2042

[peak forge]

It's only available this weekend as an extended trial.

[dreamy escarp]

So I can’t keep it

[peak forge]

What did I just say?

This also has nothing to do with cloud gaming either.

[mild grove]

bro this whole conversation so funny to me 😭

[burnt lintel]

i accidentally started forza horizon 5 on cloud and didnt even notice.
but i will say this.
kinda bad decision for the xbox app to launch an installed game on the console through cloud

[signal steppe]

it does that?

[oblique fog]

There’s remote play, that plays games on your xbox. And there there’s cloud gaming, that plays games off xbox servers.

[frosty dock]

yo

[nimble rose]

what?

wow he left

[formal trout]

If I use cloud gaming, can I play games on my xbox without installing them?

[oblique fog]

Yes

[formal trout]

It has any disadvantage?

[oblique fog]

It’s 1080

[hollow chasm]

Possible lag and quality issues based on your network connection

[lament vector]

very rare queues and some games arent on cloud

also unplayable when your internet connection is unstable with freezing and reconnecting stuff

[formal trout]

Okay

[north forge]

how do i use cloud gaming in india,(i dont mind if its even vpn but need an solution), i have ultimate btw

[simple tundra]

[north forge]

is she a hacker?

[remote wharf]

Logs, I think they logs.

[queen coyote]

Unfortunately, if the service is not available in your country, you simply cannot use it.

Any attempts to circumvent that can only get you banned and render your console unusable.

[north forge]

thanks, ive seen some vids wehere ppl did it
so just curios to know how

[simple tundra]

It’s possible but it breaks tos and has a high risk of account ban

And we won’t tell you how

[queen coyote]

And we're telling you that, since that is not allowed and can get you banned, mods here can also ban you from this server for discussing this topic

[simple tundra]

Smh

[north forge]

alr thx
ill wait until it comes

[simple tundra]

You admitted to breaking tos

[queen coyote]

@peak forge might have something to say about this

[remote wharf]

Nobody is willing to tell you how to Xbox ToS-

Oh

[simple tundra]

Modmail would have been more interested

[peak forge]

As has been said, changing regions violates Terms of Service and is considered marketplace fraud. It's also not permitted for discussion here.

If people advise you to stop, do so.

[dreamy escarp]

Heyy is there an exact date when Flight Sim will be able to play on Cloud??? 😅😀

[nocturne cipher]

No

[nimble rose]

i wonder if there will be sly cooper games on xbox game pass

[night heron]

Never. Sony doesn't care about that franchise, why should Microsoft either?

[nocturne cipher]

Lol

You’re funny

[nimble rose]

wow 😢

[nocturne cipher]

If the developer makes a deal with Microsoft to put their games on Game Pass, then they’ll be on Game Pass.

I don’t know if it’ll be soon, later, or if at all but I wouldn’t doubt the possibility

[remote shuttle]

i'm not to up and up in the xcloud bugs, but any one get weird shimmering when playing a 360 title on pc? trying to play gears 2 and it is annoying

[distant acorn]

Hi, could somebody tell me if I can play Halo Infinite multiplayer on Xbox Cloud Gaming?

[wary nest]

You can

[distant acorn]

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/play/search?q=halo+infinite Do you see the multiplayer version here? I just see the campaign version @wary nest

[wary nest]

I haven’t tried it out on the app myself but no

I just turned my xbox on tho and it says that it has cloud play but the process itself is in beta

So that might be a system error

[nocturne cipher]

The multiplayer and the campaign versions launch from the same one, labelled as campaign on Cloud.

I didn’t launch a multiplayer session when I tested it but the option was there

[lament vector]

yes you can i played it last weekend

[distant acorn]

Ahhhhh.. thanks 🙏 didn’t check it. Will have a look later

[jovial yew]

Does anyone knows when is cloud gaming coming to more countries?

[wanton sequoia]

nobody knows till Xbox announces something

[dreamy escarp]

how do you get cloud on ios

[oblique fog]

xbox.com/play

[mild grove]

soooo surprise spelunky 2 is cloud enabled despite not having listed cloud previously

Still salty about mass effect tho ☹️

[hazy tusk]

Highly upset about mass effect as well, there's really no excuse for that.and them not even acknowledging it I feel 8s kinda a slap in the face, but I got 3 months of gamepass left, I had went and renewed when they said it was coming, only to not get it. I'm debating canceling the sub tbh, really dissatisfied

And it really is misleading because on there website it says cloud as well, they so busy collecting money they need to change there descriptions, when I asked in there live stream on twitch, they just ignored the question altogether.

Like deliberately skipping on my question and directly replying to the next question.

But its cool, they getting cocky again, they are not the only gaming company in town and when this pandemic is truly over, there will be some changes coming I believe, sony and Nintendo ain't far behind.

[hasty jackal]

Wait why are we mad about mass effect? Because it is going to be on game pass?

[hollow narwhal]

I don't understand either

[stable stag]

https://tenor.com/bmDwR.gif

[shell saddle]

I'm confused as well what the complaint is here

[stable stag]

there wasn't even a question...?

[hasty jackal]

oh that one isn't about us.... i used almost all the remaining mental energy I have to decide he was complaining about the hosts of a live stream with thousands of participants not answering every single question the second it flew by in the side bar

[silver parcel]

Wait let me decipher

.. / -.. --- -. .-..-. - / . ...- . -. / -.- -. --- .-- / -- .- -.

👍

[stable stag]

oh okay.

big same to qwertyuiop here

[hazy tusk]

Actually it is not on gamepass cloud and I was lead to believe it would be.

[hasty jackal]

the store page doesn't indicate that it will be on cloud. it only indicates gamepass

[hazy tusk]

And in the description when they "originally announced it, they made it seem as it would be available for all 3 platforms" hense the recent change

[shell saddle]

It was never announced for cloud

[stable stag]

xbox one, xbox series, and pc

[hazy tusk]

I'm not here to argue just stating a fact, you take it how you see it

[stable stag]

not helping Louie.

[hasty jackal]

"fact" is "what is written down"
"fact" is not "what i interepreted something I kinda thought i heard might have meant based on what I wanted it to mean"

[shell saddle]

It's actually explicitly called out that it's Console and PC only in the announcement

[hazy tusk]

Anyway as I was told, it is what it is. As I said, pretty soon, things will be changing so, I'm not the only one that feels kinda underwhelmed in gamepass cloud. It's a good idea but needs tremendous work

So yall have a good one im up out of here. Ggs in the chat.

[shell saddle]

Provide feedback instead of vagueposting

[hasty jackal]

I agree with one point you are making.
When the pandemic is fully over, there will be changes in the gaming world.
Things that have been slow and hard to develop, will absolutely accelerate and become even more awesome. (this includes things that are stuck waiting on hardware that is hard to get, like just increased datacenter capacity in general)

[mild grove]

Because it's not on cloud 💀

But no, it never said cloud anywhere

[mild grove]

And i BEG for better servers once it's over

The only thing im known for in this server is complaining

Stadia opened just before the pandemic and didn't release as a beta

Those servers are top notch

[umbral basin]

When will mod support finally release they announced it 3 months ago with the cloud

[fathom yacht]

Mod support for supported games on PC.

not for the cloud

[wanton sequoia]

Yeah the last update what you could be referring to, was for PC Insiders where you were able to choose which drive to install to and not be stuck with the one folder it forced you to pick, and Mod support for more games.

[shadow inlet]

how can I use a PS4 controller for cloud gaming

[warped owl]

pc or xbox

[nocturne cipher]

You can’t on Xbox, but you can connect it via Bluetooth to your mobile device, or Bluetooth/Cable to PC.

[hallow patrol]

Hey guys, I saw yesterday that PC players can now use the clarity boost without the edge canary.
Why after 2 months, Mobile players still can't use this option, even with the Edge Canary installed

[idle zephyr]

Can someone help me?

[plush iron]

"Fully over" hehe good one

[burnt mesa]

hey why cant i hear the audio when I use remote play on my ipad

[oblique fog]

is the ipad on silent mode?

[burnt mesa]

yeah, turn it off?

[oblique fog]

yup, that should unmute the audio

[burnt mesa]

i did that, it didnt work

[oblique fog]

unsure, that's what fixes for me when the audio glitches. try relaunching the game?

[burnt mesa]

is it because im using streamlabs

[lunar whale]

So I'm playing Forza on my phone, but every time I play I have to do the tutorial thing, is there a way to save? (Android)

[oblique fog]

did you finish the tutorial? it'll restart from the beginning if you didn't finish.

[lunar whale]

I assume so, unless it's longer than the 2 races

[sonic swallow]

can i play games that i buy on cloud aswell?

[peak forge]

No, only those on Game Pass Ultimate that are cloud supported

[magic patio]

Ok can anyone help me download the app on iOS

Every time I goto the Xbox.com/play it keep saying it only available in selected regions while I am in verified region

[shell saddle]

cloud gaming isn't available in your region yet. Through Safari is the only way it can be played on ios as well

[magic patio]

I looked at the region it says it’s verified in South Africa which is where I live

[shell saddle]

GPU is there, but not cloud gaming

[magic patio]

Beuhhhhh

[shell saddle]

It's listed on available regions on xbox.com

[magic patio]

Yes

But how do I get it

[shell saddle]

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/regions -> select xbox game pass, scroll down and see there's an x for south africa

Wait until we expand the service there

[magic patio]

No

There isn’t

[wanton sequoia]

3 ticks and a X under the cloud gaming part

[magic patio]

OH

So I have to use a vpn?

[hollow narwhal]

no, that would break ToS. Iris already told you what you will have to do

[zenith kite]

TESO is still unplayable with the disconnects during loadingscreens...

[coral storm]

the best thing to ever happen to xbox

[dreamy escarp]

I just tried Cloud gaming on my Series X, seems fine but there is a bit input lag with controller, that's normal?

[olive path]

Depends, Try using your controller wired.

If it still has lots of input lag, then it’s just xcloud

[lunar whale]

So I'm having an issue, I'm trying to buy a car on Forza and I'm getting an error

[nimble rose]

does anyone even know if rec room is getting to game pass

stupid question since almost no one knows

[oblique fog]

Isn’t rec room a f2p game?

[tidal rivet]

I believe it is

[olive path]

Yeah it is.

Plus this is xbox-cloud-gaming chat, I’m assuming they are talking about it coming to xcloud.

It’s already on mobile, it’s on pc, and it’s on console

[oblique fog]

Ok, that’s what I thought.

[oblique fog]

The answer is no. Because it’s free and already available on multiple devices.

[nimble rose]

ok

[solid badger]

Can someone be my friend

[peak forge]

You can use #587074461770186765 to find people to play stuff.

[zenith crane]

Hello guys! Does anyone have the issue in playing Limbo trough cloud gaming? it's not starting with an erroe code

[cobalt badger]

I have been a stadia founder since launch, but recently with the lack of games i started looking at other services and now that the news broke that Microsoft bought blizzard Activision i am thinking of switching to xcloud...

But i have a few questions

Does it run well on linux?

Can I use keyboard and mouse on computer? Or do I need to have a controller?

[olive path]

You need to have a controller.

Running well on Linux I cannot tell you, I have never tried it

[nocturne cipher]

It’s not playing locally, it’s streaming, so I’m assuming it runs depending on the capability of your connection…

[zenith wave]

We do have people that run it on Linux, however your results may vary and aren't guaranteed since it's not officially supported atm

[errant flint]

I'm having problems with windows 10 app on xCloud. There only shows 133 games, to fix this I need to restart the app many many times, and sometimes I have a lot of image issues using the app. There is any way to fix this?

[mild grove]

if you have 5ghz connection switch to that, less congestion

and xcloud is beta so it will lag

[lean jetty]

KB+M support seems like something that will probably happen eventually, but requires game support so it won't be universal even if it does. But for now, yeah, it's all controller.
You could presumably get away with an emulated controller though, I think there was something to do that (x360ce, was it?) but not sure if it works on Linux

[mild grove]

yo i think they secretly improved servers

there was definitely an update, launching a game gives you a slightly different loading screen

it's not terrible anymore it's still a bit choppy but not full on interruptions 🙏

[nimble rose]

really?

[mild grove]

yep, i don't have image perms but it's a slightly different spaceship and the beta logo changed

[nimble rose]

ill try

mine didnt change

[dreamy escarp]

😭

[hybrid fern]

somebody plays fifa ?

[upper patio]

ta

21

[hybrid fern]

can you speak german

[upper patio]

bo

[hybrid fern]

or english

[upper patio]

english

[hybrid fern]

ok can you help me to make my icon swaps

whats your name on xbox

anyone else who play fifa

[dreamy escarp]

Cloud gaming is awesome. Playing skate 3 on my phone, just one step closer to it being fully portable.

[silent fog]

before i load up a game my controller works fine but after i open a game it wont register any button pressed

[kind anchor]

Anyone play bo3 zombies

[nimble rose]

is it a wireless or not

[nimble rose]

#587074461770186765

[silent fog]

I have tried both with wireless and wired and there is the same issue

[nimble rose]

with wired:

try reconnecting it

like disconnecting it from the wire and putting it back

[silent fog]

I have already tried that and it doesn’t work

[nimble rose]

then i dont know

[graceful iris]

Hi I’m having a problem when signing into xcloud for iOS this is the problem

It keeps on taking me to the support page how can I stop making it do that

[hasty jackal]

What support page? What does it say?
Do you have game pass ultimate?
Are you using chrome or safari?
Are there any details you can provide?

[graceful iris]

I added it from safari and I was going to try the games which are free with out the gamepass

[mild grove]

what games?

[graceful iris]

Just the free pens without gamepass

Well I did record a videos what it does but I can’t share it

[dreamy escarp]

Will there ever be beamNG for xbox?

[lament vector]

only gamepass games are included in xcloud

you can try looking at geforce now if you want to try some other games

also xcloud requires a gamepass ultimate

geforce now has a free membership

[wooden moat]

will minecraft come to cloud gaming

[hasty jackal]

perhaps.
i don't know if they said "all game pass games will be in cloud gaming" or not. But it is in game pass, and that is the first important step

[sinful aspen]

It might but most likely just for computer devices not mobile

[oblique fog]

That’s how rumors spread. There’s no difference in pc and mobile cloud game. Both running console version, both uses a controller.

R6e doesn’t have the cloud enable tag, but it is on xbox cloud. I know someone asked about it a few days ago.

[wanton sequoia]

like putting games into game pass its upto the publisher, Xbox still need permission to put games into cloud which is why not everything is in there.

[mild grove]

if it's on xcloud, it's on all xcloud supported devices

and sometimes games won't be announced for cloud but appear there anyway, like spelunky 2

still sad mass effect isn't an example

[graceful iris]

I’ve used it it is good I just wanted to try it well I’ll wait until I’m 17 for my car to get gamepass unlimited

[mild grove]

well why do you need a car for gp?

[signal steppe]

Probably saying up for a car and then will get money for gp if I had to guess

[hexed spire]

when will cloud gaming be global

[hollow chasm]

[graceful iris]

Because my dad only buys games so I’ll wait tell next year

[dreamy escarp]

why is halo and forza not on cloud gaming on console

[oblique fog]

It is, do you have the game installed? Installed game prioritize over cloud games.

[dreamy escarp]

i tried before i installed it

oh may have been while i was downloasing it

[woven zinc]

random question: is it true that the bigger a game file is, the more likely it is to have issues displaying on xbox cloud gaming? like ive had that problem with fh5, dbd and nfs heat where the screen looks really choppy or whatever it is

[mild grove]

doubt it, I've experienced more problems with tabs than stuff like just cause 4 and hitman

[torn meadow]

hey

[nocturne cipher]

What?

[hollow narwhal]

tf are you on about

[earnest zealot]

#rules 💵 13. No buying, selling, or trading items/codes on the server. Do not ask for codes, handouts, or freebies either.

[torn meadow]

ok

[hollow narwhal]

nfts are stupid

[nocturne cipher]

I agree…

[upbeat scaffold]

Me too

[mild grove]

Count me in

[lament vector]

what

[steep pike]

man xcloud is so bad

i swear its like playing a game in 480p

atleast the inputlag is decent

[olive path]

It’s a beta.

[lament vector]

well it doesnt work perfect for everyone i think

its like 1080p 60fps for me

[real tusk]

It works, but there are so many little spikes of lag which sucks for online games.

[dreamy escarp]

xcloud isnt good for fast paced 1st person shooters or anything like that but is still good for other games

[wraith swift]

yo do i can somehow disable achievements notifications? sometimes i dont see subtitles

[hollow narwhal]

yes, in settings

[wraith swift]

in game settings or settings in xcloud app? im using xcloud on my phone and i cant find it

[hollow chasm]

There's no way to get access to the settings app in xCloud, unfortunately.

If you could, you'd be able to change where the notifications come up too

[hollow narwhal]

oh my bad, I didn't realize what channel I was in!

[buoyant crag]

Back 4 blood is insane

[upbeat scaffold]

Yeah not a bad game that isn’t

[buoyant crag]

Ikr

[willow briar]

Its pretty good

[buoyant crag]

And tec 9 isn't a semi

That's good

[willow briar]

Cold war flashbacks

cod

[buoyant crag]

Lol

[tulip latch]

@buoyant crag yeah. I like the game too. Gives memories of Left 4 Dead.

[outer obsidian]

I have been having issues with cloud gaming. It says an error occured please try again later. I dont know what to do

[peak forge]

Did you wait and try again later like it tells you to?

[mild grove]

the servers are series x blades but I can't access series x/s exclusive options like ray tracing

[wanton sequoia]

well yeah that would be native only

[mild grove]

rip

[dreamy escarp]

Cloud gaming needs work

[wanton sequoia]

its still Beta, multi-year project, still ISPs need to improve in most regions but games are still playable

[strong bone]

When will cloud be available EVERYwhere?

[peak forge]

Never

[dreamy escarp]

I think it requires 5g and 6g internet to become common for least amount of latency, high resolution and graphics streaming and being able to play competitive fps games on cloud

[unborn storm]

What is 6g? Is that even out?

[peak forge]

That's 5G + covid vaccine microchip.

[sinful aspen]

does cloud gaming use a lot of mobile data?

[olive path]

Yes.

[steel zealot]

Look up info on how much something like Netflix uses for HD (not 4k) streams. Because that's literally what it is - streaming video

[dusk stone]

What does cloud gaming even do?

[rain orchid]

Allows you to play on a phone, tablet or console.

[pine sedge]

what Apple devices work ** best ** ?

[nocturne cipher]

Depends more on the internet connection than the device, my two year old iPhone handles it just fine though.

[hardy river]

Yo

[crimson pecan]

Is there an easy way to get to the cloud gaming section on console?

[tidal rivet]

I haven’t seen a specific cloud section as of yet. All the cloud games are in gamepass, so just look for the ones with the little cloud icon in the corner

[wanton sequoia]

Full Library > Xbox Game Pass > very first dropdown menu > Cloud Gaming

[tidal rivet]

ah cool, guess there is a way to find those games...also explains why I haven't seen it before, lol

[crimson pecan]

I hope Xbox is working on a shortcut or seperate app for the xbox consoles to search through just the cloud enabled games and allow us to favorite some of them.

[wanton sequoia]

you can favourite them though by adding into a group

you can then pin the group to the dashboard and it will stay there till you remove it

group can store a max of 200 games

[tidal rivet]

that's what I've started to do. makes it super easy to find on the dashboard

[crimson pecan]

ok cool, thanks

[hazy tusk]

So now I'm paying for games that I kinda don't even play In my genre, but now games I find to play are a lag fest. Games audio is popping and really unplayable. Smh

Gives us the right to play our owned games digitally in the cloud. Fix the servers, currently in this state it is not Wirth $14.99 PLUS Tax a month.

[wanton sequoia]

its a variety of things, in my last house I couldnt play anything but I moved and now streaming is much better, saying "fix the servers" but you could be further away from a datacenter, its a multi year project and still "Beta". as for owned games this is why its part of Ultimate.

there are SeriesX blades in a datacenter its not going to know what games you own which is why the library is what it is.. you also have remote play which allows you to stream from own console to another device maybe thats what you are talking about.

[nimble rose]

if they did so that you could play the games you own digitality in xcloud

xcloud wouldnt be "free" anymore

you would need to pay for game pass and the games

[hazy tusk]

I never said they couldn't explore that option to pay, and again cloud is not free now

[wanton sequoia]

they added Cloud into Game Pass Ultimate yeah, but the price hasnt changed

just extra value at this point

[mild grove]

tbh i also wish they did something about servers, its always random on wether a game will run good or bad for me

Like just cause 4 gets hardly any problems, then tabs is the total opposite

I wish the revenue that came from 25 million subscribers went to better servers to take it out of beta instead of buying activision

activision is cool, but hopefully when microsoft starts banking off of them (or before, the sooner the better) xcloud becomes justified at $15 a month

[elfin socket]

i cant play any game because gamepads dont work

[hazy tusk]

Try Razor Kishi, it's what I've found works good

[mild grove]

this shouldn't be priced at $15 a month if they just are not gonna work on servers

it's like their selective at what times of day it works on, what it will work on, and what games are more consistent

I shouldn't get a perfect experience in just cause 4 then experience interruptions in doom 64 EVERY 5 SECONDS

25 million subscribers and they go for Activision 👎

[wanton sequoia]

are you going to ever stop with the negativity, literally everyday I come online and you complaining about something.

Activision bring them into the mobile space which they didnt have much of before. everything is happening for a reason.. Game Pass isnt a near future thing. they talking like 5-10-15 years from now.

[oblique fog]

Average is $10/month for other cloud services. You’re not force to pay xbox.

[coarse parrot]

Its already cheap yet he's still complaining LMAO.

[mild grove]

sharing criticism is bad now?

[mild grove]

would you pay $15 a month to get a super inconsistent experience? or are you someone who praises it everywhere saying "its like playing local" because you live next to a server?

[coarse parrot]

Its not even supported in my country LOL

I just use v*n and I still get a playable experience

I'm so far away from xbox servers but still get a decent ping

They have hundreds of games that I can play on mobile for 15$ a month so its good for me atleast idk about you.

[mild grove]

vpn being against tos aside my internet isn't perfect either yet still meets requirements

[coarse parrot]

Well I'm still not banned yet

I been using it for months now, I just use codes to renew it

[dreamy escarp]

Tbh stadia runs better than cloud gaming

[wanton sequoia]

sharing criticism is fine but atleast do it in the proper way by leaving feedback through the cloud gaming app

[mild grove]

I rlly wanna try that since destiny 2 is free but the app is being not great and won't let me get past the optional stadia pro screen

[dreamy escarp]

Doesn’t show for me

[mild grove]

when i sign into the mobile app it's not letting me proceed past a stadia pro subscription

[dreamy escarp]

I use it over the browser

I was playing madden 20 on cloud gaming and there was that line you see on 2000’s TV

[mild grove]

will that work on mobile with a controller

the browser i mean

either way the browser is giving me the same thing i need to start a trial

[hazy tusk]

Madden 20 unfortunately has audio and lagging issues really bad now it use to be really smooth.

I left feed back on the game, but it's been happening with alot of games now, unfortunately I won't be renewing my subscription until I here of better experiences.

Talking or venting In these forums about the issues do absolutely nothing. Want change? Speak with your wallet.

Not to mention it's 3 years old now and they have license to ea play but yet cloud can't play the updated title?

[wanton sequoia]

its upto the publisher if they want to include cloud for their games. always has been that way

[dreamy escarp]

Yes

[mild grove]

well hopefully google stops begging for my wallet on a free to try service

[mild grove]

alright sweet did a work around aaand its slightly better than xcloud imo

that's it rlly

[mild grove]

why is xcloud fine in a browser but terrible on the mobile app

[tidal rivet]

Likely depends on your phone and signal

[mild grove]

both are constant.

[lament vector]

its fine on the mobile app for me

if im close to the router and using 5 GHz Wifi

its pretty good even on the 2.4 GHz

[tidal rivet]

Same, but I run it on cellular data, never WiFi

[nimble rose]

i dont get it??
theres fortnite for xbox one but why dont they allow for xcloud wtf??

[olive path]

xcloud only includes games on Xbox gamepass.

GeForce Now has Fortnite, play it on there.

[gray slate]

anyone have the best vpn?

[oblique fog]

For cloud gaming? Sounds like more latency, I wouldn’t do it.

[lament vector]

tunnel bear is a pretty good vpn but yeah vpn just makes more latency if youre gonna use cloud gaming

[main sleet]

How do you get your mike working on cloud gameing?

[lament vector]

click ··· at the top left

and enable your mic

[main sleet]

I tried to enable my Mike I don’t know if you can only use Xbox heads I was trying to you my AirPods

[obtuse vigil]

Yo

Is cloud gaming worth it if you dont have a xbox

[main sleet]

Ok

[obtuse vigil]

But isn't it too expensive

Like you pay for game pass

[tidal rivet]

it's $15 USD (or however much in your local currency), and includes so much more than just cloud gaming

[obtuse vigil]

Yes but if i dont have a xbox

I can't use anything of that

@tidal rivet

[tidal rivet]

do you have a PC?

[obtuse vigil]

Mac

[tidal rivet]

Mac can also do cloud gaming through the website, and you can us PC gamepass if you have Bootcamp

(I also have Mac)

[obtuse vigil]

Bootcamp not available on arm mac

[tidal rivet]

arm mac?

[obtuse vigil]

The newest macs are based on ARM

Bootcamp is not possible

It's only possible on x86

[tidal rivet]

you mean instead of Intel?

[obtuse vigil]

No

Apple Silicon

[tidal rivet]

ohhhh ok. Yeah, I got my iMac in 2020, so it still used Intel instead of the Silicon

well, that means my new laptop won't allow bootcamp then. shame

[obtuse vigil]

Yeah so for cloud gaming on web is not worth 13€/month

If you lose features that are worth 10€/month in that deal

If it did cost 5-8€ yeah sure

[tidal rivet]

yeah I can understand that if you can't access any of the other features

[obtuse vigil]

If you have the newest macbook pro you might be able to use a windows vm

[tidal rivet]

I have an Air

[obtuse vigil]

I mean you can have windows on it

But it's rather slow imo

You lose like 60% performance

[tidal rivet]

eh, I don't do PC gaming, so I don't need it.

but yeah, bootcamp was sooooo slow when I had it on the iMac

[obtuse vigil]

And most games still don't work on it

[tidal rivet]

yeah I just do cloud on the phone now, and it works fine

[obtuse vigil]

Nice

With a controller or touch?

[tidal rivet]

occasionally controller, but I mainly use the Backbone

[wanton sequoia]

there are no settings to change, so many different things with cloud that could cause that issue.

distance from nearest datacenter, ISP, Internet speed..etc I occasionally get the screen refresh wiping thing but I dont use cloud all that often. I just try out Game Pass titles and decide if I want to install to console.

[wanton sequoia]

its only SeriesX in the datacenter so I believe its just console versions for now

think there are plans to try add PC in the future but that Interview was just Phil Spencer I believe talking out loud, this year is more focused on trying to get an App ready for TV's

[sacred ravine]

Hello everyone, I'm a og Xbox One owner, and I wanna try out cloud gaming. I also have a PC with like a i7 processor, 16 gb ram and a quite bad gpu.

However the question is, would it be better to do it on my og xbox one or on pc?

Also added bit of info: i would be interested in playing infinite and I've already played a good chunk of the game on xbox, can I use the same save and just go back on forth between cloud and regular xbox?

[wanton sequoia]

its streaming majority is just Internet needed, doesnt matter on the specs

and yes thats the beauty with game saves stored in the cloud you can jump between them

[sacred ravine]

alright but would it be any different between doing it on my xbox or pc in terms of experience/result?

i was just wondering if one worked better than the other or it's just the same

[wanton sequoia]

best to try it out yourself its good that you dont need to download anything and the game has always the latest update, browser works well Xbox.com/play

[sacred ravine]

alright I'll give it a try thanks

[steel saddle]

ok

[tidal rivet]

Radu, have you tried another browser (I think Edge is recommended) to see if it’s just an issue with Chrome?

[wanton sequoia]

it shouldnt be that low, Xcloud article says its been bumped upto 1080p

it was originally 720p

[delicate skiff]

anyone know when they gonna add the newer maddens to xcloud mobile?

[wanton sequoia]

they still need permission from the publisher and its upto them if they want to include those into cloud or not. so nobody knows till it happens

[barren moth]

Sometimes it’s just being too far from their data center, not much you can do about that

[runic violet]

its been happening to be recently

it's really annoying as i'm trying to play on browser, and I play on pc so I don't have a remapping application to use the app

[mild grove]

how do y'all put up with this

[runic violet]

Alr, thanks mate

[wanton sequoia]

lets not and thats why you are lagging so much, there are only 26 regions available, Xbox are trying to extend to other countries but it takes time.

using cloud when its not available to you is against Xbox ToS

[runic violet]

but im in the US regardless

[worthy lagoon]

H

[summer gorge]

Is anyone down to play world war Z

[earnest zealot]

If you're looking for someone to play with, please go to #587074461770186765

[hazy tusk]

It's pretty bad how the servers have become at this. Just about any game you play starts out fine and litterally just gets worst and worst as you play.

Left feed back, but honestly I paid for ultimate and I feel like at this point, the cloud servers are litterally unplayable

Of course no refund. But no future renew subscription can fix that. I swear I hope sony or Nintendo come out with some form of mobile service...

[hollow narwhal]

cloud is in beta

[hazy tusk]

Yeah its ultimate price Tag should be as well, but yet we have to pay full price...

Bad thing though? Someone did this...most if not all games ran flawless on cloud last year... imagine that...now it's just...smh

[hollow narwhal]

cloud beta is far from the only thing you get with Ultimate

[dreamy escarp]

Weyaaaauuuwwww

Anyone WHO plays Battlefield 1943 ? (Xbox)

[earnest zealot]

If you're looking for someone to play with, please go to #587074461770186765

[hazy tusk]

@hollow narwhal look, I have no pc, and no console. I payed for a product that they put in beta and charge me full price for, and even if it's in "beta" that's not an excuse for a product to not function properly.

[hollow narwhal]

that's exactly what a beta is

it's on you for not looking at what you were buying

[hazy tusk]

Smh ok defend it all you like. I know ow how to handle this..

[oblique fog]

It’s like buying a happy meal and complaining you didn’t get enough condiments. You still get the burger, fries, and soda.

[mild grove]

what do y'all recommend, i got a new isp and it works pretty fine now

so no more complaining i suppose

[mild grove]

dear god someone has already taken my place

[oblique fog]

Complaining is fine. But there’s a line between feedback and whining.

[dreamy escarp]

aww the cloud keeps lagging for me, any tips?

[dreamy escarp]

Buy a new internet connection 🤣

Best Games?
Also when do u guys add new games?

I want warzone,gta5 lol

Lmao

[wanton sequoia]

Cloud is only Game Pass titles, Warzone is a free game, and GTA V has been in Game Pass twice.

[dreamy escarp]

i mean any tips but not buy a new connection?

[dreamy escarp]

Why'd they remove it? Also can i play custom games in the cloud?

[dreamy escarp]

Get a new isp

[peak forge]

Because Rockstar agreed for the game to be featured on Game Pass for a set period of time and that time came to an end. Just the same as other third-party titles that are added to Game Pass.

[wanton sequoia]

its upto the publisher how long a game stays in Game Pass, and they also choose if they want to put games into cloud or just PC/Console

[dreamy escarp]

Ohk

[dreamy escarp]

So u can't play custom games u own on Xbox?

Say i bought a game on Xbox but i don't have an Xbox,can i play it?

[wanton sequoia]

no that would be through a different service called remote play, but you would still need a console for that as it would turn the console into a private server to stream onto another device.

[dreamy escarp]

Oh ok thx,i alr knew about remote play tho

[mild grove]

i guess since my wifi is fine now my only real complaint about xcloud is that even though it's on series x blades, games don't take advantage of series x exclusive stuff like ray tracing

[hazy tusk]

Smh

[hollow narwhal]

lol

[mild grove]

i thought you left lol

[topaz robin]

Seems like RT is on when streaming FH5 to me 🤷‍♂️

[wanton sequoia]

Raytracing is only in the Autoshow when you can look around the cars. they dont have it in gameplay

[mild grove]

well i can't turn on ray tracing for doom eternal, so it's definitely playing the xbox one version

[topaz robin]

That doesn't seem to change what I said 🤷‍♂️

[topaz robin]

I see, so it's not playing the series x enhanced version.. interesting.

[mild grove]

i'll say the loadtimes are fine, but idk if it's on one loading times or series x so i don't have much to compare it to

[hazy tusk]

Nah I figured I stick around and look at the haters and there stupid comments 🤣

[mild grove]

from personal experience, your the hater, it's in beta, or it's your wifi

[hazy tusk]

Hmn I have 300 upload and download aint my wifi

[mild grove]

i still get input lag, but that's because my upload speeds are just under requirements

[mild grove]

then it's the beta, and/or too far from a server

[hazy tusk]

Do you know the difference between Input lag and latency?

Seriously because that input lag would be a problem if I didn't use direct input. The latency is where if I were having server issues would be the problem.

You get latency when you use blue tooth devices etc

I'm not.

[mild grove]

then it's probably congested. are you using 2.4 or 5 hertz?

[hazy tusk]

5g sir

[mild grove]

neither am i, and like i said, i still get input lag

are other devices like smart tvs or phones using the same connection?

[hazy tusk]

So them that would be a company issue not ours. With there servers

Then*

[mild grove]

again, beta

[hazy tusk]

Yes I know its beta, but are you familiar with a program called AetherSX2? Well let's just say before I was signed into that "tester" program, I was made aware what it would Intel. Latency, input lag the whole 9, with beta on xbox hmn I didn't have to sign anything, I just handed over money and wa Lai! Lag lol

It's whatever I know its beta and I know what that means, I just wish they where more upfront about there business.

[humble nest]

Ultimate encompasses MANY advantages, and only select ones are Beta. We are clear about those.

[hazy tusk]

Hmn Madden 20 select?

On cloud

How about MLB The Show 21

Forza 5

[humble nest]

What about those games? The streaming portion of the service is beta

[hazy tusk]

There not playable on cloud!

[humble nest]

And?

[hazy tusk]

Or excuse me..there really laggy

[humble nest]

Just because they're laggy for you doesn't mean it's the same for everyone. There's a LOT of components between you and the servers, some of which are under YOUR control.

[hazy tusk]

Is it my understanding that gamepass ultimate works as playable through mobile or just console?

[humble nest]

Gamepass ultimate grants the ability to download games for console and PC that are part of the service and play locally, as well as the current beta implementation of streaming to PC, mobile, and console from the cloud

the streaming portion is in beta

Would you get this hissy if you were paying for your cable, they added new channels for no cost, marked them as beta, and had problems with those beta channels?

All the previous channels offered are fine

[hazy tusk]

Hmn so let's see.. I use a input only controller device, im using a very stable internet connection and a highly standard mobile device? Unless I'm highly confused Netflix, hulu, and other streaming platforms have rhe same capabilities for less.

[humble nest]

All those are 1 way streaming, you don't see latency

There's no upload involved with them.

[hazy tusk]

So xbox has to upload the server to connect to my connection stream lined?

[humble nest]

And there's nothing to say your wireless signal isn't bouncing around and having good and bad portions

Your input is being uploaded to the server...

to then be handled by the game running in the cloud, to then return the image to you

it's travelling TWICE the network hops that any of those video streaming services you mentioned do

not to mention, they can do bulk transfer (here's a block of 30 seconds of video / audio)

Games can't do that

completely different technologies

because your input has to be sent to the game

so if your "very stable internet" connection has a ping of 150 ms to the servers, guess what? 300 ms from when you give an input until you see it on your screen.

[hazy tusk]

Ok that makes since, and I appreciate you giving some real advice on the situation and not just another snob remark

And now that you explained that I truly understand now because I was thinking it was more on the services I mentioned

I even purchased the razor kishi thinking it was not a strong enough connection

[humble nest]

There's 1 connection between your controller and your mobile device (that may or may not be wireless, depending on the device you're using)

and so there can be some latency there

but then all that has to be sent to the server still

[hazy tusk]

But my lack of having a pc or console really limits me and really sounds like the money Investing into this can be used towards one of the 2 for a more complete stable solution

When I signed up to this, I was in the understanding I could bypass purchasing a computer or console and just use the service until I could save up to purchase something

But now I see it's really wasting the money especially since this is the only device I have, and like you said it takes alot more power which I really don't have, I was thinking beta was more grounded then it is, for consoles and pc owners it's a great investment not so much for a person of my stature, so thanks for explaining. My subscription is up in March and I'll just save on from there.

[mild grove]

i think it was pretty clear when they stamped the beta logo on there. Unless you need a dictionary?

[hollow narwhal]

we need a beta bot command like we have for spam

[hazy tusk]

Mute function is a great tool 🔧 🙂

[hollow narwhal]

are you asking to be muted? I don't understand

[patent shard]

Will cloud gaming be coming to nz

[mild grove]

what is nz

[patent shard]

New zealand

[mild grove]

couldn't tell you then

[lucid basin]

guys, I have a question

can I play online with only game pass?

friend says, I can

[hasty bear]

With Ultimate

That gives u live gold as well

[lucid basin]

:(

[hasty bear]

But some games dont need live gold

[lucid basin]

I bought game pass

[hasty bear]

Normal?

[lucid basin]

not ultimate

[hasty bear]

Damn, me 2

Are u on Xbox console or pc?

[lucid basin]

Xbox console

[peak forge]

Then you need to also get Gold, or upgrade to Ultimate

[hasty bear]

Oof

[lucid basin]

how to upgrade it?

I spent much money for game pass

but I didn't know that I can't play online with it

[peak forge]

Go to the page for Game Pass Ultimate and buy it.

That will upgrade your current subscription to Ultimate.

[lucid basin]

so what about game pass I've bought already

?

can I get my money back?

[peak forge]

It will be converted to Ultimate.

[lucid basin]

how?

[peak forge]

Automatically.

[lucid basin]

so will I get money for game pass which I've bought already

?

[peak forge]

No, your current Game Pass time will become Game Pass Ultimate time.

I said this already.

[lucid basin]

😭

[peak forge]

I'm not sure what the issue is here. You're not losing anything. You're actually coming out better off, because you'll get more for what you paid.

[lucid basin]

I bought game pass for 3 months

now you advise me to pay much more money, but I will not get money I paid before back

[peak forge]

Okay, I'm going to explain this one more time and then I'm done.

You have 3 months of Game Pass for Console.

You now pay for 1 month of Game Pass Ultimate. If it's your first time that will be only $1/£1 (whatever your currency is).

Your 3 months of Game Pass will be converted to Game Pass Ultimate. So you will end up with 4 months of Game Pass Ultimate. (3 converted months + the 1 month you're paying for now).

You have not lost anything, you have only gained because you are getting those 3 months converted to something better.

[lucid basin]

so u mean I should buy game pass ultimate for 1 month?

[peak forge]

That's what I said, yes.

[lucid basin]

are u sure, I'll need to pay 1$ only?

I buy it in VK

[peak forge]

Go and see what it tries to charge you. I don't know what the pricing is in every region.

But typically the first month is heavily discounted.

[lucid basin]

so where should I buy it?

[peak forge]

Either on your console, or via xbox.com

[lucid basin]

let me check

[lucid basin]

I met website

they say I can't make a purchase

try again

what if I used game pass ultimate once, but my friend gave me it and he paid for it, I still will need to pay 1$ only? @peak forge

[peak forge]

No, it will be full price.

[lucid basin]

😡

ok, thank you

for your help

well, so what if I buy game pass ultimate now? @peak forge

[peak forge]

I've already told you what will happen.

[lucid basin]

@peak forge so are u sure about if I buy it now I'll have 4 months of game pass ultimate exactly?

[peak forge]

Please stop tagging me.

[lucid basin]

ok

[peak forge]

I've explained the process multiple times. I'm not explaining it any more.

[lucid basin]

wait

[lucid basin]

just answer this question please

[peak forge]

I already did earlier.

At least twice.

[lucid basin]

I want to be sure

[peak forge]

Then go and read the previous answers again.

[wanton sequoia]

what Rhinne is saying is correct

[lucid basin]

pls

one more time

[peak forge]

I have told you three times already. Paul also just told you.

[lucid basin]

and I'll go

[lucid basin]

Are u sure?

[peak forge]

Stop asking. You have been told enough times.

[wanton sequoia]

I am backing up what Rhinne is saying so he doesnt have to repeat himself anymore.

[lucid basin]

ok

so

again

[peak forge]

No, not again

All of the information is there for you above. Read it again, pay attention. No need to ask again.

[lucid basin]

I buy now 1 Month of ultimate, and when I use it, I have 4 months of ultimate automatically, are u sure?

[lucid basin]

I ask, because it sounds strange

[rich widget]

why cant i see cloud gaming on xbox game pass? i did all the updates and did the xbox insider hub already

[tidal rivet]

Do you have Ultimate, and do you live in an area that supports cloud?

[rich widget]

oh my country hasnt supported cloud gaming thanks for telling me

damn 😦

[tidal rivet]

No problem, hopefully they will soon

[unborn dirge]

When will I be able to play shooters without being 10 seconds behind my input?

[mild grove]

app i get input lag to the point where it's noticeable but that's my wifi, it's still under a second tho, browser needs work definitely

[mild grove]

when it leaves beta

[unborn dirge]

Hope it’s soon! I’m ready to enjoy traveling again! 😂

[wanton sequoia]

leaves Beta ? that be years away

[mild grove]

how come?

[wanton sequoia]

its a long term goal, multi-year project always expanding. attempting to reach new markets. this has been said before in their articles. this years plan is to put apps onto TV and hopefully we see that a cloud stick is being worked on.

[hazy tusk]

What will cloud stick do @warped vault ?

[wanton sequoia]

you know like those streaming sticks that have been around, just this one is for Xcloud

[hazy tusk]

Oh that's pretty cool, I wonder will our owned games will be in the plan, one can hope

Or even purchase and play from xcloud

[wanton sequoia]

think PC games could be the next thing, Phil Spencer tweeted about it last year, but they focused on console for now.

that comment was like April

[hazy tusk]

Yeah I like Phil, he's a good dude, he's trying

[dreamy escarp]

Best cloud experience ngl,no wait,high speed load time,easy controls,n more!,all from my phone just for 1$!

All i would recommend,is to add pc games,n prob ability to play games that u own outside of game pass (ik u can do w/remote play but my 0$ wallet is too cool to buy an Xbox , but plot twist I'm poor 😎.

[obtuse vigil]

man what games are good

battlefield V definitely isn’t, too many hiccups and when there is too much action the delay gets too much

[olive path]

If you are looking for games to play, try sea of thieves, and snowrunner.

[obtuse vigil]

gonna try

thx

[lament vector]

nier automata star wars jedi fallen order and dead space are pretty good

[obtuse vigil]

Man is it worth getting an xbox

[olive path]

Depends. Do you want to play PlayStation or Xbox exclusives?

[lament vector]

if you want AAA story based games you should get playstation

playstation has so much exclusive games
