Question Will I lose the benefits unlimited hours in November?

Upvotes

I'm in Colombia, not a supported country, I bypass it using better xcloud changing regions, I obviously didn't get the email since Colombia is not even supported, I am guessing I'll also lose the unlimited hours benefit.

What do you guys think?

Tech Support GameSir Nova 2 Lite moving the mouse cursor instead of working in Xbox Cloud Gaming — SOLVED

Upvotes

I had a very strange problem with my GameSir Nova 2 Lite on Windows 11.

When connected via the 2.4GHz dongle or USB cable, Windows recognized the controller as “Controller (XBOX 360 For Windows)” and joy.cpl showed that all the sticks and buttons were working correctly.

However, in Chrome / Xbox Cloud Gaming, the controller wasn't detected properly. The left analog stick was controlling the Windows mouse cursor instead of working as a gamepad.

Bluetooth worked normally.

I tried:

XInput mode (green LED)

USB cable

2.4GHz dongle

updating controller and dongle firmware

GameSir Connect

restarting Windows

Chrome Incognito

closing Steam

Gamepad Tester

checking Device Manager

resetting the controller

Nothing fixed it.

The solution was finally found in Xbox Game Bar.

Press Win + G → Settings → More settings → “Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta Gamepad Cursor” and disable it.

After disabling it, the analog stick immediately stopped controlling the mouse cursor, and the controller worked normally in Xbox Cloud Gaming.

So if your GameSir controller suddenly starts controlling the mouse instead of working in xCloud, check the Xbox Game Bar Gamepad Cursor setting before reinstalling drivers or changing controller settings.

Hopefully this helps someone else!

Question Once a game I own leaves gamepass, can I still play it on xcloud?

Post image
Upvotes

Hey, so cyberpunk leaves gamepass on 15th September. I only have good old xbox one, and this game has a massive update that is only available on new gen, its basicaly a whole new game. Playing on xcloud allowed me to play the latest version as if it was a new gen console. So I bascialy require xcloud to play it rn

I already own the game digitally, once it leaves gamepass can I still use it on xcloud or will it be removed from the catalogue?

Sry if its a beaten question, I don't know much about xcloud

News Remote Play now supports 1440p?

Post image
Upvotes

I was ALWAYS told that Remote Play could not output more than 1080p due to something with the Series X being limited by it. I just pulled up a Remote Play Stream now and it was reaching 1440p and I definitely noticed the visual difference.

Tech Support Will upgrading from Premium to Ultimate make me lose unlimited cloud gaming?

Upvotes

Hi, I received an email from Xbox saying I would keep unlimited cloud gaming as long as I kept auto-renewal enabled. I was subscribed to Game Pass Premium at the time, so I thought I was covered. However, I’ve since upgraded to Ultimate. Will I still keep unlimited cloud gaming, or does upgrading mean I lose that benefit? Thanks

Tech Support Better xcloud com a tela preta no remote play - como consegui resolver.

Upvotes

Eu estava tentando usar o Better xCloud/Remote Play fora de casa.

No 5G do celular funcionava normalmente, mas quando eu tentava usar a internet da minha namorada, o Better xCloud carregava a interface e ficava na tela preta.

O problema era que o WebRTC não chegava a iniciar. Ele ficava simplesmente travado nessa etapa, sem estabelecer a conexão com o Xbox.

Tentei resolver com abertura/encaminhamento de portas e outras configurações de rede, mas não resolveu.

A solução foi usar o Tailscale como rota, configurando um notebook antigo em casa com CachyOS como Subnet Router:

PC remoto ↓ Tailscale ↓ Notebook em casa (CachyOS) ↓ Rede local ↓ Xbox

No notebook, anunciei a rede local:

sudo tailscale set --advertise-routes=192.168.10.0/24

Depois aprovei a rota no painel do Tailscale.

Com isso, o PC remoto passou a conseguir acessar o Xbox pela rede doméstica através do Tailscale, e o WebRTC finalmente estabeleceu a conexão. A tela preta desapareceu e o Remote Play passou a funcionar.

Depois também coloquei o Xbox no Ethernet, o que resolveu a questão de latência que ainda tinha.

Fiquei muito tempo tentando resolver isso, espero que eu tenha ajudado pessoas que tambémestavam tentando.

Anyone had any luck with cloud gaming? I’ve managed to get in contact with 2K support who basically told me they have no clue if it’s getting added or not… honestly don’t expect anything else from them as a response one of the worst customer support teams I’ve ever dealt with.

News If you want unlimited play time you can try PS+ cloud with the Asobi app on Android and iOS

Upvotes

The Asobi app, available on the Play Store (Android) and App Store (iOS) allows you to play games from the PlayStation + subscription via cloud of you're subscribed to PS+ extra

PS+ still allows unlimited play time on cloud (for now) so if you're a cloud only player using an Android or iOS device, Steam Deck it is worth a try, they are also working on a native version for Windows

I tried it and in terms of fluidity / latency it's as good as Game Pass IMO

You can check the PS+ list of games here https://www.playstation.com/en-us/ps-plus/games/

Discussion How come Microsoft can't provide GFN's Free Tier level of hardware for more than 15 hours to their paid users?

Upvotes

They're using Series S Blades, those are worse than what other services like Amazon, Google and NVIDIA give out for free (both give out Tesla T4 for various services, game demos etc, NVIDIA gives 1/4 of a L40S in free tier, can outperform a series S).

GFN has hour limits too but they're giving top tier resources which are naturally more expensive to run so it makes sense for their case. But Xcloud?

You can basically create a free GFN account, play your game pass games there for 0 extra cost with better game performance and stream performance (NVIDIA also provides higher bitrate on top of it) with only disadvantage being queues (usually 2 min) but somehow Microsoft can't give you higher than 15 hours with the worst hardware imaginable

Other I built a free native macOS app for xCloud, no browser tabs, real controller features, auto-updates

Upvotes

Got tired of xCloud in a browser tab, so I built Mac Xcloud a free, open-source native macOS wrapper for xbox.com/play. Signin stays saved, edge-to-edge window, boot animation, menu bar stats (ping/FPS/bitrate), and it auto-updates itself.

DualSense goodies: 21 adaptive-trigger modes you can switch mid-game from the menu bar, LED colors, haptics, touchpad gestures, calibration, and saveable input presets. Full native settings window (region ping test, quality/bitrate, stats overlay) built on the Better xCloud engine, no browser UI.

Needs Game Pass Ultimate like the browser. No Apple Developer license, so after downloading: right-click → Open → allow in privacy settings and confirm once. After that it runs and updates normally.
