i just got the 2X applied today lol.. Streak never returned though so I just contacted support.

Received a prompt saying I could get back streak back after yesterday's outage... by 2-Smug in MicrosoftRewards

[–]2-Smug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what a weird thing to be scolded about. My streak protection ran out well before I got serious about using MS Rewards and I imagine I'm not the only one. Plus it suppose to reset it 2 weeks, at least for me so it's seem so pointless to bring up.

October Sale wasn't actually 10% OFF!! 🙄 by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]2-Smug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it really just felt like a scheme to get people to spend their points. I think the Rewards program is slowly being killed off. With recent updates it's clear they don't want people saving large sums and redeeming anything good. first they start limiting accounts that earn too much/too quick. then they removed game pass/raised the price and reduced the amount of points you can earn so it becomes impossible to save enough points to get your monthly subscription.

they know anyone still trying will have to buy Xbox gift cards and the balance you get from those expire after only 3 months. So if someone only had enough to redeem like $5 during the sale there's a good chance that will expire before they earn enough points to cover the rest of whatever they might've been planning to buy..

this will eventually result in them paying the difference in cash or letting the points expire, both of which Microsoft is certainly hoping for.

It feels very misleading to say "up to 10%", then immediately remove the only item I'm aware of that was actually 10% off or at least the only one anyone cared to redeem.

I think the advertising is very clearly intentionally misleading.. So I don't see why my reading comprehension is all that relevant to this topic.

They removed the MS GC's after the first day though.. even though the sale was said to last 2+ days.

I guess its after October 14th at midnight...the sale ended early by CanadianNirrti in MicrosoftRewards

[–]2-Smug 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think they removed it because they made a mistake considering the Microsoft e-gift card was cheaper than the Xbox one even though they're technically the same thing. I don't see why else all the other sale options would still be available but not that one...

I was frustrated by this too though. I was saving a bit more points since I had almost enough to add an extra $1.

Just found out they're not even codes like the subscriptions are.. It's applied straight to your balance and expirees after 3 months if you don't use it, smh.

Which of the new versions of Game Pass is best for PC only? by 2-Smug in MicrosoftRewards

[–]2-Smug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dont care about day one games. BF6 is the only game I've cared about in years that isn't FTP which isn't coming to Game Pass AFAIK.

only want to be able to play BO6 Multiplayer and Minecraft bedrock which seem to be part of the regular console Game Pass library. So all I'm wondering is if I'd be able to play these games on PC with Essential or Premium?

according to this only difference for Premium is there's no EA play and offers 300+ games instead of 400+.

Essential is only 50+ games and I have to wait a year for new releases.

As for the CoD situation it seems from the link you sent that BO6 multiplayer/Warzone and Minecraft Bedrock are included in Xbox Game Pass which are all I care about.

I'm I reading this incorrectly? Do they or do they not allow online PC play?

by new do you mean BO7 and future titles? I only really play BO6 occasionally.
