Got the gamepass recently and have downloaded a couple single player games that don't need internet connection. Will I need to have a constant online gamepass subscription for accessing those games even though I have them installed?
Shouldn't this have been the selling point of the Ultimate tier? Cloud gaming is nice but most of the time the quality and latency is bad so most people don't care for it.
MS could see a big bosst in GPU subs if it implements this, atleast for first party titles like Forza and Flight Simulator which have good dlc content
I love animals and loved 'small kitty in a big city' i'm really looking for some decent animal games :D
They added a bunch of games recently and they have most of the EA Sports games but not UFC
Can I share my game pass ultimate with my child simultaneously on two PCs (same house, same IP)?
I'm not interested in sharing Ubisoft and EA games at the same time, at most one Ubisoft/EA game and one from the Microsoft launcher.
Thanks
Can I buy 4 of these? Anyone done it? I used cdkeys before I know they're cool but wondering if they stackable or not cause it doesn't say anywhere. Thanks guys
Claimed 14 days gamepass trial from a discord reward,i was happy and started to download some games to complete them,but then my game pass account was blocked for "security reasons" and i couldn't unlock it,since when i try to recive a sms code,they just say "This service is not working for now",already my thrid day with no game pass,so i have 11 days left and still can't unlock my account,it has no sense of reciving free game pass if they block my account for "Security Reasons'
My account was never blocked btw,just once in 2019 but could unlock it with no problems,tried to contact game pass but nothing happened.
Hey everyone what's some relaxing games to play to shit your brain off?
Thanks in advance
Hi all, so I only recently learned about the Microsoft Rewards system and that you can get Xbox game pass subscriptions as reward!
What is the best or fastest way to acquire a lot of Microsoft Rewards points?
Appreciate any help!
what is this "Sys_Error Dev error". Have been trying to play BO6 for last 3 days and it's appearing. Other games are OK. I am playing in Cloud
Using a VPN was the one that worked for me.
Many guides and posts I saw talked about:
None of them worked for me.
I then remembered I had a similar issue with Epic Games where the download speed was also very slow. I used a VPN because I think ATT throttles many large downloads that is not on steam (at least for me). Steam downloads are very good 40 MB/s + but some launchers are less than 5-10 MB/s. I also have 500 MB/s fiber internet and it is just me who uses the internet so I am not worried about too many devices.
I use ProtonVPN because it has a very good free service with no limit on bandwidth. However, I did buy their black Friday deal for 2.99/month for 12 month deal which is really good. It allows me to get on even faster servers with lower load. You might have to connect to different servers because after some time it will slow back down.
If anyone knows any other work around for ISP throttling that isn't a VPN let me know.
anyone want a free trial xbox gamepass 14 days? (my friend gave it to me but i dont got a credit card or paypal to use it )
Has anyone received this error: “This code can't be redeemed. It was purchased in a different region from your account.” I purchased a year of game pass core for India from Eneba. I connected to an Indian VPN and got this message. Did I do something wrong?
I’m on the Xbox app on my phone and it says “cancel anytime”. I don’t see any place to click to cancel my subscription. I need to do it before it renews on Dec 5th.
And did you cry like a little bish or are you a liar? This one of the most memorable gaming experiences ever, no doubt. What else you say whats on the pass comes close to this level of emotional engagement, or reaches the onion cutting levels of Fry's dog or Up's opening montage? Just wanted to shoutout to all those dealing with all their emotions right now and now you're not alone.
Let me give you my other suggestions for all those masochists who want to hurt themselves a little more from the xboxgamepass's content:
A Plague Tale's Requiem - Different but has a similar dynamic of the young female victim being thrusted into the role of mother and protector under dire cataclysmic circumstances. Awesome production value
Brothers - Sure why not, if you like weeping that much
Ori 1+2 - F ing beautiful and also devastating at times
Hellblade II: Senua's Saga - No idea this game was this raw and hardcore, its short but leaves a hell of a mark on your being. The most authentic psychotic game I've played.
Firewatch - Its such a masterclass in using minimal means to achieve maximum effect and affect. It stays with you
Still Wakes the Deep - Short but high quality, mostly a walking simulator but the immersive experience is extremely well done. You really are on a damp crappy Scottish oilrig in the 70s, you just are.
Yakuza series - With all its jampacked silliness and minigame sheningans, there is also the gutpunches out of nowhere that make it so great. Ganbare Kiryu-san, ganbare!
I’ve tried a lot of things I’ve seen in youtube videos like a lot and the games download speeds are still slow. I made a speed test and I’m getting 400 something download speed and 30 upload. Is there another solution? I have tried the Windows Security, command prompts, app settings like repair and stuff. Restarted the device a couple of times. Also delivery optimization.
Don't know if this is the right sub, but getting rid of the Game Pass app is not doing it. The fact that you can't even cloud stream from the XBox app is a starter. Then if you want to cloud stream, you have to open a browser on your phone. Which makes getting rid of the Game Pass app pointless. So I still need 2 apps/programs to cloud stream, instead of the 2 we already had? Thirdly, I can't fullscreen my game in the browser. I have to play with the https banner the whole time? In short, Mocrosoft did not streamline this, and as a long time Game Pass player, I think they made it worse.
I'm looking for a good first person single player games. I've enjoyed the halo games, star wars battle front 2, doom eternal, dishonored 1 and 2 the new call of duty, titanfall 2 and the new wolfenstein games. I like games with good gameplay and story . Star wars, dishonored, and titanfall are my favourite. Also is stalker 2 not available on xbox 1.
If anyone knows what might be happening please help!
Hello guys,
I have 2 xbox accounts registered in my xbox console (old one and a new one with game pass ultimate)
In my old one i have already linked my Diablo IV hardcopy and played for about 1 year.
In my new one i have game pass but if i want to play in my PC it will reset my progress, right ?
So my question is if i Disconnect my old account from battlenet and connect the new one with the game pass on it so i can play on PC too, will my progress transfer too ?
If I cancel my membership for a week and resubscribe a week later. Will I lose the years of service on my profile? Like it says I have 19 years when you click my file on xbox. I don't want to lose that milestone.
My son is the only person in our family who uses the Game Pass. He's very much a casual gamer and mostly plays several iterations of Forza, Minecraft and FIFA (plus Fortnite, but GP not needed). Anyway, we've had GP Ultimate for a while and were just billing my CC. Then my card number changed and the payment lapsed. My Q is what my best option is for him? He only plays a little and in spurts. He might go a month or two without playing at all and then (usually during school breaks) plays a lot. I feel like we are throwing our money away since he only plays a few games. Are there any ways to make this more cost-effective other than just renewing for a month here and there?
Is anyone else having problem trying to enter game after loading screen?
This is error i get.
Hi I have a local account on my pc because I didn’t want to sign in to Microsoft. I want to know if I sign into the xbox app would it make my local account into a microsoft one? If I tried using gamepass through the browser instead could that work? Or is there no way to keep my account a local one and also sign into xbox. (Windows 11)
I have game pass ultimate, i usually play on my VR headset its died so moving over to the phone.
No option to cloud game. The xbox app on my phone confirmed i have a game pass ultimate sub, when it will renew etc, but the option to stream games isnt there just "install to", including the game i literally was just streaming 10 minutes ago. I have logged out and back in, the app is up to date, i have previously played games fine on backbone
Any help or ideas?
