The only Origin game supported at the moment is Apex Legends.
Right now you can just choose Apex and then when the Origin client loads, just choose another game to install.
I'm sure they will fix this loophole soon..
Yeah maybe, but I read here that the specs for the free and founder sub was the same. However, the move to RTX 2080 happened quite recently so maybe you got pushed onto an old server blade? Or maybe Batman is taxing on any system?
Cool that xCloud can be used on Shield, didn't know that, I've only heard about the mobile experience so far which is uninteresting for me. I'll happily try it out like that when it arrives here.
But for me it's still a bit of a hit and miss, Xbox One S versions doesn't interest me much today, once they upgrade to Xbox Series X it'll be a much more interesting platform.
But it feels like Geforce Now will always be ahead as long as they can keep the stream snappy and stable.
Must have been patched out. Got an error saying I don't own it and had to hard exit to get back to the menu.

I'm not sure what will be ahead graphically this time next year but Xcloud is probably going to have Gamepass which would be amazing especially on a
TV with full pad support.
I could see myself using both with Xcloud being the main one and GFN filling in gaps.
Yeah they've confirmed that xCloud will be included with Game Pass. That's a clever move!
But I'm just thinking that Nvidia will be ahead of the others graphically simply because they're doing the best GPUs.
However, I think Stadia's hardware stacking sounds interesting, if it's well thought out it could become a big deal going forward since the games don't need to be playable on any console or PC.
I just tried this and it's still working for me. Started The Division 2, went to library and installed Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair. Then I was able to play it just fine.
Definitely. Before the end of the year Stadia will probably change the business model or at least offer a Gamepass like service along with the store. Geforce Now can't be easier to recommend with the free unlimited hour sessions, Ray Tracing enabled GPUs with the payed subscription and being able to play games you already have. I even started buying games with support for Ray Tracing, because I can now take full advantage of them.
Must say what a massive difference ethernet over wireless makes. Just took my iMac downstairs and plugged it in to my ethernet port, played destiny 2 for over an hour and didn't have a single hiccup or stutter, picture was perfect and never dropped resolution or a frame once. My wireless has full signal upstairs and gets 300mb/s but I guess its dropping packets that aren't ever dropped on ethernet. If you can try it hardwired as the experience is flawless (aside from the soft image)
Yeah, my PC is old and tired so I can actually can push up the details when I play the games through Geforce Now, that's a big deal for me. Maybe I can hold off on upgrading the PC awhile longer now.
What games have ray-tracing support right now?
I want Shadow of the Tomb Raider! I played through it on Xbox but started playing it on PC awhile back and it looks insanely good even when I've lowered some settings. Can't imagine how it looks with ray-tracing on.
Unfortunately Shadow of the Tomb Raider is not supported on GFN. I bought Wolfenstein Youngblood, Deliver us the moon and Metro Exodus. All of them work great. Quake RTX also works great as a free demo.
5ghz. I mean it works fine for me in Wi-fi but I do get fairly frequent stutters. Nothing that prevents me from actually gaming but wired is just so much more consistent.
Yeah, there is a noticeable difference from 2.4 to 5Ghz wifi and from 5Ghz to Ethernet. The problem with 5Ghz is that the signal degrades a lot as you move further away from the router.
I'm in Canada, my data cap would be blown through by the title screen :P
Yeah I know. I Norway we have subscriptions with unlimited data, just like regular internet.
Using that shortcut I saw three different configs
GTX 1080c (running on a Tesla P40)
RTX 2060c (running on a RTX 10-8)
RTX 2080c (same as above, while playing the only RTX game I could Quake 2)
I've tried it on LTE and it fails on the network test for me saying my bandwidth isn't good enough. This is on T-Mobile in the US so it may be different for other providers.
got a dual band WiFi adapter for my old PC upstairs and things have been smooth sailing, no noticable stutters or package loss. Things have been impressive so far.
Be sure to check out how you can change the time of day under settings/environment. You can play a lot with the lighting.
Dumb question sorry; does the game need to be installed on Steam to play? So games I have in my library on my laptop but they aren't actually installed, would they run on GFNow?
everything is installed and ran form nvidias cloud, so you don't need the games installed locally.
I tried it but not setup for gamepad. Need to wait till I can get on PC.
I found the loophole, but I can't install Battlefield V due to lack of Cloud storage.
How did you fix that? I don't think I can remove Apex Legends from the Origin client to make room for Battlefield V.
Been playing a few matches of Fortnite with the free tier before committing, but I'm definitely impressed.
I barely notice the latency, but on Destiny 2 it's far more noticeable..

With the $5.00 subscription you can enable ray tracing on every game that supports it.
As usual my internet connection is too slow. Can't wait to move into my new home to finall get 300mbit/s.. The idea, however, sounds neat. Makes me consider selling my gaming laptop in order to get something more comfortable concerning the weight and travel compatibility
I just played The Witcher 3 for an hour in my bed room. I'm connected trough a 5 GHz wireless connection, and my router is placed downstairs. I didn't notice any lag or connectivity issues at all. If it's worth mentioning I'm using an Asus AX11000 router trough Wifi 6, so my network equipment is high end at the moment. But yeah, consider me impressed. I'm definitely becoming a Founder Member.
My plan failed, I purchased a new Xbox1 remote to use on my sideloaded Gerforce clients on my firesticks and have the exact same problem as the DS4. It will not acknowlege the option button and no rumble.
As I don't own an xb1 I should probably send it back to Amazon lol

They really need to fix this ASAP, I want to try "Yooka Laylee The Impossible Lair" but I only own it on EPGS :/
Hopefully it's just a matter of certifying the games on Epic and not some political IP type situation.
What fire sticks do you have? The client doesn't like my gen 2 stick, just crashes.
4k. I thought my button problem was ds4 related, but same deal on Xb1 controller. Will need around in Steam tomorrow to hopefully find a fix
ah, yeah, I think it just doesn't work on the 1080p stick, it's the lower Android version.
Yes.
So, I played Skyrim and noticed it downloaded my Workshops mods, I wonder if that applies to all games that have Workshop mods. I guess it makes sense that it would download them but I was afraid all games would be vanilla.
