Pai ca sa poata ajunge la intelegeri, inseamna sa creasca pretul serviciului, ca sa le dea si lor o cota parte. Sa vedem daca vor face asta.

Oricum, mi-au lasat o gust amar toti acesti devi care vor extra bani fara sa faca ei nimic

[Khufu]

Ori sa creasca pretul serviciului, ori sa semneze niste cecuri, one time only pentru acesti devi. Nu isi permit sa isi puna devii in cap pentru ca ei sunt parteneri in multe chestii, de asta executa imediat cum astia zic sa le scoata jocurile lor de pe platforma.

Ce ma socheaza un pic este nivelul de amatorism prezentat aici. Ai avut faza BETA unde (aproape) toate studiourile erau prezente cu jocurile lor, a durat aproape 2 ani, timp berechet sa stabiliesti cu oamenii ce si cum, cum va fi lansarea, ce preturi o sa ai, proiectii, etc. Si tu vii dupa ce serviciul iese din BETA si nu stii cum sa faci sa iti tii jocurile pe platforma, toti fug care incotro. E clar o problema acolo. Zici ca e prima oara cand isi vorbesc despre treaba asta. Pretul in acest moment este imbatabil, as zice, mai ales daca ai un internet bun, si faptul ca studiourile se gandesc sa faca double dip, chiar daca tu detii deja acel joc, that's low. Eu inteleg ca modelul Stadia le surade, dar GFN ar trebui sa fie altceva. Acum e GFN pe radarul lor, pentru ca e trending, dar cum se ridica alte servicii, si alea vor pati la fel (Boosteroid- serviciu "romanesc" cu servere aici care are jocuri precum RDR2 sau Warzone pe platforma-, Vortex sau altele). Cred ca se uita si catre Shadow cam chioras, ca parca ar vrea ceva si de pe acolo.

Vad ca Nvidia au incercat niste damage control, au prelungit perioada de Founders cu inca o luna, abia in Iunie o sa plateasca lumea. Cred ca se tem de rata de conversie de la acele luni gratis la subscriptii care chiar raman active. Poate trag de timp un pic ca sa negocieze, cine stie.

[razvanrazy]

Ideea e ca e un morally gray zone, cum am mai zis si tot ce fac ei este, cum zici si tu, sa double dip, desi nu e cazul aici. Ei deja si-au luat banii pe jocul ala, GFN ofera acum doar un virtual machine unde sa poti rula jocul tau.

Devii probabil nu credeau ca o sa fie un succes si d-aia nu i-a interesat prea mult, dar GFN au zis clar ca banii primiti de la end user, le ajung doar pt chirie si sa "break even", deci nicio sansa sa investeasca in devi. Si nu cred ca un one time payment o sa ajute pe nimeni, pentru ca sunt devi cu 5 jocuri, altii cu 1 joc, altii vor lansa in curand alte jocuri, and so on. E greu asa.

Legat de cat de repede au scos jocurile de pe platforma lor, este o obligatie legala, nu e negociabila. GFN nu avea de ales decat sa le scoata la cererea producatorilor si atat.

[Khufu]

Absolut, ei ar trebui sa fie chiar pro streaming pentru ca sunt multi oameni care au cumparat jocuri special pentru ca mergeau pe GFN, ei neavand un PC capabil (este plin subredditul GFN de astfel de oameni si multi dintre ei si-au luat si teapa cu jocurile care se vor scoate saptamana asta). Inteleg ca bani bani bani, dar trebuie sa gandesti putin in perspectiva, asa ai sanse mai mari ca oamenii sa iti cumpere jocul, nu e ca si cand il joaca pe gratis.

Imi imaginez ca la suma aia, e greu sa faca profit si poate ca in viitor o sa mareasca tariful. Ca founder gasesti rig instant, nu ai timp limitat de o ora pe sesiune, jocurile gen Kingdom Come/Division 2, etc beneficiaza de configuratia cu echivalentul 2080 RTX, deci ai multe avantaje si as zice ca merita si un pret mai maricel. Daca nu ar pierde jocuri in prostie chiar ar fi o solutie viabila pentru gamerii fara hardware dedicat.

Daca o tin tot asa, platforma o sa ajunga sa fie folosita strict pentru a juca jocurile F2P, ca pe alea oricum nu le scot.

Am vazut ca tocmai a devenit disponibil pe toate Android TV. Poate testa cineva sa spuna? Eu nu gasesc nicio stire despre asta, am vazut doar cand am facut update de app pe android phone, cel putin asa zice in release notes.
O sa verific zilele astea pe acasa, eventual.

Daca e asa, e practic primul dintre aceste game streaming services care se instaleaza direct in tv (sau in the tv box, pt cine are asa ceva, cum sunt gen alea de la xiaomi).

[naz]

Am verificat eu, este in Google Play Store pe Android TV. L-am instalat si eu acum si mi-am facut cont free, o sa-l incerc cand termin munca

[...] The company has just announced that it's making the GeForce NOW app available for the UHD3. A set-top box that was just launched by LG U+ in Korea. That's not the exciting part though. At least not for anyone in the US or other regions outside of Korea. [...]

Presumably, Android TV devices could begin streaming games through the cloud the same day the UHD3 gets the app. Which it sounds like may be today. The thing is no exact times have been confirmed yet. Even when the app is accessible on Android TV devices, it won't be an official release.

NVIDIA says development is still ongoing. Though it does have plans to put out an official release later on, initially, general support will be in the early stages of development. Which means Android TV device owners will need keep in mind that any access they have is more or less early access.

Leaving NVIDIA room to deploy updates and continue to work on this particular version of the GeForce NOW app. Another thing is that not all Android TV devices will have access. [...]

NVIDIA Is Preparing GeForce NOW For Android TV Devices

Nvidia announces GeForce Now for Chrome OS

Nvidia has announced that “Chromebooks now wield the power to play PC games using GeForce Now. Chromebook users join the millions on PC, Mac, Shield, and Android mobile devices already playing their favourite games on our cloud gaming service with GeForce performance.”

So, if you own a Chromebook but can’t quite afford to build a gaming rig or drop a wad on one of the new RTX 30-series graphics cards upon release, you can now put that Chromebook to the task of high-end gaming using GeForce Now.

Nvidia’s GeForce Now is possibly the best way for a user that doesn’t own a high-end gaming rig to have a truly high-end PC gaming experience, providing their internet connection’s quick enough – even the best game streaming services are still somewhat bound by the end client’s internet speed.

And it certainly is one of the best game streaming services on the market at the moment, as we discovered when comparing GeForce Now to Google Stadia – it beat the Googley-eyed giant on almost all metrics.

In a press conference, Nvidia revealed that 80% of GeForce Now’s four million registered users are below the minimum specifications for gaming on a local machine. So, it seems like the primary market for GeForce Now (and, presumably, game streaming services in general) is the PC gamer that lacks a rig capable of playing games to their full potential – in comes GeForce Now to provide that capability. Expanding the range of devices that can use the game streaming service is a good move. Those students with Chromebooks who maybe can’t afford, or otherwise don’t desire, fully-fledged gaming PCs can now “instantly” transform their Chromebooks “into GeForce-powered distance gaming rigs”.

As Nvidia explains, it’s simple to get started. Head to the website and log in with your GeForce Now account or create one if you haven’t already – that’s all it takes. It’s also worth noting that Nvidia suggests a USB mouse for the best experience.

With GeForce Now offering a great-value HyperScape bundle at the moment, too, if you’re a Chromebook user there’s probably never been a better or easier time than now to try your hand at PC gaming.

Am testat si eu aplicatia pentru prima oara pe Assassin's Creed Odyssey si Origins.
Am intrat, am dat toate setarile pe Ultra.
Se misca foarte fluid pe rasnita mea cu 60-70 fps, nici nu aud vreun turuit de la placa video si procesor.
Pot sa joc gratuit o sesiune timp de o ora, ma deloghez de pe server, ma loghez pe altul, joc din nou - e chiar admirabil ca au facut gestul asta.

Vizual, se vede cam fad si lipsit de culoare in functie de viteza internetului, ca si cum te uiti la un clip pe You Tube (si nu cu optiunea 4k activata) , doar ca ai control asupra jocului. Dar sunt multumit ca nu va mai trebui sa dau 1200 lei pentru placa video si arata decent
Partea nasoala e ca dupa fiecare sesiune trebuie sa umblu iar prin setari grafice pentru ca nu mi le salveaza.
Dar vorba aia, nu platesc nimic pentru serviciul asta.......

Incerc sa fac sincronizarea si cu Steam vazand tab-ul si surpriza: nu mi-a adaugat decat jocurile de la Square Enix, adica doar jocurile de la francizele Tomb Raider si Deus Ex, jocurile de la Paradox Interactive precum Crusader Kings 2, Metro, Destiny 2, si jocurile de la Wargaming (World of Tanks, Airplanes, Warships), Smite, Paths of Exiles, Counter Strike, Warframe. Si Witcher, dar doar daca le ai pe Steam cumparate, nu GOG.
Si cam atat!
N-am vazut niciun joc de la EA, Blizzard, Bethesda, Rockstar.
Sa inteleg ca si-au retras jocurile pentru ca la mijloc ar fi AMD si Intel carora nu le convine ca lumea n-ar mai cumpara placi video si procesoare scumpe?

BAAAA,ESTI NEBUUN????

Am jucat acum AC Origins pe Smartphone!

Fara gamepad !

Ca am controller de xbox integrat si transparent pe ecran.

M-am jucat ca si cum ar fi joc de mobil.

Cat de extraordinar ar fi fost sa ma fi jucat GTA V pe mobil!

Nvidia is joining its fellow cloud gaming providers in choosing to bypass Apple’s App Store and launching a mobile web app version of its GeForce Now service. Nvidia’s version is available today in beta form, meaning any of the service’s more than 5 million registered users can fire up GeForce Now in mobile Safari on an iPhone or iPad and get playing.

Nvidia says it also plans to broaden support for its desktop Chrome-based version of GeForce Now, which currently only works on Chromebooks, to more platforms starting in the first quarter of next year, including Android, Linux, and Mac. GeForce Now is currently primarily distributed via Mac and PC apps, as well as through dedicated apps on Android and its Nvidia Shield streaming box.

One of the more obvious upsides here is that Epic Games’ Fortnite will once again be playable on Apple devices, albeit through a somewhat cumbersome workaround and only after Epic and Nvidia work out some kinks. Fortnite’s PC version is available through GeForce Now, thanks to Nvidia and Epic’s partnership around cloud gaming that allows Epic Game Store titles to be streamed through Nvidia’s platform. That said, the game isn’t ready for the iOS version of GeForce Now quite yet, as Epic and Nvidia are working together to bring improved touch controls to the game.

“Alongside the amazing team at Epic Games, we’re working to enable a touch-friendly version of Fortnite, which will delay availability of the game. While the GeForce Now library is best experienced on mobile with a gamepad, touch is how over 100 million Fortnite gamers have built, battled and danced their way to Victory Royale,” Nvidia GeForce Now chief Phil Eisler writes in the company’s blog post. “We’re looking forward to delivering a cloud-streaming Fortnite mobile experience powered by GeForce NOW. Members can look for the game on iOS Safari soon.”

Eu folosesc GeForce Now de câteva luni pe laptop și mi se pare genial. Nu-l prea îl folosesc atât de mult pe telefon (Android), dar merge foarte fain cu un controller. Și de abia aștept să apară Cyberpunk 2077 să-l pot juca pe GeForce Now, au spus că-l bagă la lansare.

Și sper să bage la un moment dat și Outer Worlds pe care vreau să-l joc de ceva timp.

[razvanrazy]

Partea buna la Cyberpunk e ca va rula cu RTX

Also, confirm ca merge pe iOS

Tocmai despre GFN citeam. Cred ca a sarit cererea cu Cyberpunk. Probabil si la Stadia la fel.

Am o intrebare partial offtopic. Am primit cod de GeforceNow cu noua placa si vreau sa il dau. Stiu ca tb sa ai placa 3070, 3080 si 3090 in sistem ca sa ii faci redeem. Dar ptr alte placi? Pot folosi contul de Geforce Exprience al cumparatorului pe calculatorul meu?

As GeForce NOW enters its second year and rapidly approaches 10 million members, we’re setting our sights on fresh milestones and adding new membership offerings.

First up is a new premium offering, Priority membership, which receives the same benefits as Founders members. These include priority access to gaming sessions, extended session lengths and RTX ON for beautifully ray-traced graphics and DLSS in supported games.

Monthly memberships are available at $9.99 a month. A new annual membership option, at $99.99, provides the best value.

GeForce NOW wouldn’t be what it is today without our Founders members. That’s why we’re adding the Founders for Life benefit, which continues the special $4.99 introductory rate as long the account is in good standing. (For more details, click here.)

Whether it’s a short time, a long time or a lifetime, we want our Founders members, who’ve supported GeForce NOW from the start, to stay a part of the family.

GeForce NOW Gets New Priority Memberships and More

[paul]

The new memberships will stream from the world’s most powerful gaming supercomputer, the GeForce NOW SuperPOD, giving gamers their own high-performance cloud gaming rig. GeForce NOW RTX 3080 members will enjoy streaming at up to 1440p resolution and 120 frames per second on PCs and Macs, and 4K HDR at 60 FPS on SHIELD TV, with ultra-low latency that rivals many local gaming experiences.

Founders and Priority members in North America and Western Europe now have early access to preorder GeForce NOW RTX 3080 memberships — with six-month memberships available for $99.99. Memberships will be limited at launch, and the exclusive preorder window gives our earliest supporters the first opportunity to upgrade to next-generation gaming.

Are cineva abonament basic la Geforce now? Am prins microbul serviciilor de streaming si l-as incerca si pe asta. Dureaza o vesnicie sa se conecteze la un server cu cont gratis. Am reusit totusi si toate jocurile Steam compatibile imi merg in detalii maxime,ceea ce pe pc-ul meu nu e posibil pt multe din ele. Titusi parca mi se pare destul de mult 10 euro pe.luna sa joci jocuri pe care deja le ai dar la niste detalii mai ridicate.

[MMG]

Sal, am avut eu basic si este bun. Anumite jocuri sunt capped, dar nu toate, Cyberpunk era la 45 de FPS, daca nu ma insel, nu stiu daca au schimbat. Pentru ce ofera, la banii aia, eu zic ca este ok. Daca te gandesti, platesti 120 de euro pe an sa poti sa joci jocuri pe care le ai deja pe orice laptop/PC sau telefon, atat timp cat ai net bun. Vezi cat costa acum o placa video din seria 2000 sau 3000 si cam in cati ani de Now ajungi la suma aia. Unde mai pui ca sunt unii care platesc 5 euro, pentru ca au fost Founders. Ei cer chiar putin, comparand cu alte servicii, nici nu cred ca isi acopera costurile la acele centre. Partea de rahat este ca nu toate studiourile isi lasa jocurile pe platforma, deci nu ai acces la un RDR 2, CoD, jocuri Bethesda si care or mai fi. Nu il compara cu un Game Pass, spre exemplu, pentru ca sunt doua chestii diferite.

Pe Free iti poti face o parere despre serviciu, dar de cand au bagat Founders cu 3080, cei cu Free vor avea acces doar la placile video mai slabute si plus de asta, ai cozi mari si limite de 1 ora. Ei vor sa impinga lumea pe noul abonament, normal. Acolo iti da si optiunea sa salvezi game settings (sa nu trebuiasca sa le schimbi mereu cand incepi o sesiune, dupa bunul plac).

Sper ca a fost de ajutor mesajul meu.
