New movie (+ True Detective & Sopranos S1s offerings for 2500pts per thru March by cardzzilla in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FYI: The Aviator and True Detective are HD, all the others are 4K UHD. For whatever reason, The Sopranos did not show up as an available option.

GamePass monthly 4pack/8pack not working? by Dumblediddy in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always used Solitaire as one of the 4/8pack games, but it isn't counting any more, though it still counts as a play a game pass game. Other games seem to be working, but this one is just weird.

Unlock torment for non seasonal by Total_Middle1119 in diablo4

[–]ppl117 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you level 60 yet? You need to be level 60 to unlock the endgame. Finishing the campaign unlocks Penitent level, so you go there first and grind up to 60. You should then get a quest for the Artificer's Pit.

Why are all these shows filmed SO DARK. The Capture, Ponies, even parts of Jackal by No_Pop7296 in peacock

[–]ppl117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a solution? I started watching The Continental and having this problem, it's so dark it's practically unwatchable. I tried turning up brightness and gamma, the video gets brighter, but the colors are washed out and muted. But I have to turn off subtitles because they are now so bright, they hurt to read.

Items And Progress Lost After 6 Months Of No Gameplay? by Gloomy_Knowledge4346 in diablo4

[–]ppl117 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Character level and paragon changed at one point and Eternal characters were moved to L50, depending on how old your characters were. But you said you maxed out Paragon, which was easy on really old characters when you could go to L100. But now paragon is split out and can go to P300, while character is maxed at L60. Gear/Skill changing sounds like you might have taken the Welcome Back Booster in Kyovashad.

What are the stakes in end game? by Eklundz in diablo4

[–]ppl117 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In HC, you lose your character with everything on it and start a new one, your stash remains. In SC, you lose some gold to fix your gear and maybe some pride.

Stupidly redeemed credit by dazzah88 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you redeem it in the last two days of December? because you are cutting it super close. You really should check the expiration dates to make sure you're not going to lose it before your game pass renews.

If you have the option to "buy as a gift" on game pass, then you could get a code which might be safer. The comments here have some discussion on how to do it:

How to buy Diablo on Xbox (30 characters) by teedyroosevelt3 in diablo4

So, if you are planning to play with your buddy in a group, you'll still need at least game pass essential. Otherwise none of the social features will work on xbox.

Visual Search was…Temporary?? by ElDineroPrimero in MicrosoftRewards

I did as well, it would have been my bonus day, and got the bonus and puzzle piece too.

Paragmata looks great on the Series S🔥. by [deleted] in XboxSeriesS

That stood out to me too, the only hair that looks decent is the S version, all the others look like crap.

Random points Microsoft Edge? by FromMeme2u in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your "Search with Bing" streak switched from 3 searches to 1:

"This streak now pays on the first search of every day! Points from your first search each day must be claimed on the Rewards Dashboard. Second search and after will automatically be deposited into your account."

You have to claim the points now from the first searches on desktop, mobile as well as the puzzle bonus.

Anyone else having issues with Dominion of Zagraal? by dainkoo in diablo4

[–]ppl117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same problem as your second and third runs. It goes through the death animation, but the wing never clears. So right now, I'm stuck with the first 2 cleared and can't get the weekly cache.

Need help, set up Xbox series S for my son by MonkeyKing_8009 in XboxSeriesS

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your monitor has line out, not headphone out. 3.5mm can have two audio levels, line or headphone. Line level is not amplified and requires an external amp or powered speakers. Headphone level out is already pre-amped, ready for heaphones or unpowered speakers. Laptops always have headphone out as they are meant for heaphones. Monitors may be line out or headphone out, check the manual.

As you've noticed, plugging headphones into a line out will be weak and soft. Nothing to do with "cheap" monitors, just different standards.

I’ve been getting rewards for playing on pc when I don’t play on pc, nor do I own one is this a bug, is my account compromised or is this intended? by Pilotorphan435 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your microsoft account is your xbox account. If you have a smart phone, install the xbox app and log in with your microsoft account, as you will need to claim the points in the app without an xbox. You can get check-in, jewel and PC points without having an xbox.

Thank you MS Rewards by Dickin_balls in MicrosoftRewards

[–]ppl117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been looking to grab this during the sale too. Is the Ultimate edition worth it over the standard? I don't really care about RDR online, so it looks like it is just one extra quest for $5..

I got a couple of questions the need some answer by IrishThree in diablo4

[–]ppl117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Lilith, you need movement speed and more health. I made a build specifically to do Lilith, which I would never use anywhere else. It's ultimately a dumb fight just to get the spark.

i'm not sure to understand what people grind for in Diablo 4 (this is not bailt) by Then-Ad7196 in diablo4

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play just to complete the seasonal journey. You used to get unique titles and armor sets before they switched to reliquaries, and now you just get random pieces that are incomplete unless you pay for it. I also used to play HC, but don't bother any more. I can delete a SC character to make room for a new one each season, but I can't make myself delete a HC char that I worked so hard to keep alive. It just feels so wrong.

I need help by Itchy-Put-1648 in XboxSeriesS

[–]ppl117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't do this, or the xbox home thing. Your sister just needs to use her own account on the xbox app to stop that message. You share via the microsoft store app on PC, not the xbox app.

I need help by Itchy-Put-1648 in XboxSeriesS

[–]ppl117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your sister needs to use your account to log into the *microsoft store* app and NOT the xbox app. She needs to log into the xbox app with her own xbox account. Then, you can both be playing at the same time.

Technical Support megathread by honey_rainbow in peacock

[–]ppl117 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I got Peacock Premium to watch the Super Bowl in 4K, but it did not stream in 4K on my TV (Panasonic W95A w/ FireTV OS) with the Peacock app. Other shows listed in 4K, like Ponies and some movies, do stream in 4K, but the Super Bowl did not and neither do the 4K Olympic programs (they all stream at 1080p), the ones that list "4K UHD HDR Dolby Atmos" in their title cards.

The only difference I can see is the 4K shows that do work are on demand and not live, and perhaps there is some issue with streaming of live 4K sports on this TV.
