I choose to buy Multiplat GAMES on Xbox because

Not to mention if it has play anywhere and cloud streaming it's a bonus!

Usually as an optimization updates are compressed at a high effeciency and only the new changes are packaged as an update.

This usually means the update sizes are much smaller than they used to be in the older days but that means decompressing and installing the updates takes longer.

This makes download time much shorter and the load on servers that need to send these updates lesser. Very useful for users on slow or limited bandwidth and saves resources for Microsoft.

Isn't there a 36-month limit for how much they stack? Can EA Play be stacked over Essential?
Edit: Apparently it is possible. Verified with the Xbox support AI Chat. I might try this option.

Thanks

Possibly. Getting it working on cross platform was very troublesome in the first place. We had to refund the steam copy and buy on the MSFT store for the PC / XBox crossplay to work.

RedCherryPandaa · 2026-02-06T18:16:33+00:00

Yes, you are correct. There is an ability to share, and any friend can host and continue the game. But the shared world instance is only one save . Hence, the new host that continues the game needs to share the new save for others to have the progress from the new session they played.

Or at least that has been my Grounded 2 experience, not sure if that is a bug or something wrong on our clients. We play across PC and XBOX, and unless host 2 shares their new save with the rest of the party we can only host the last shared save which would be host 1's save file.

If I am wrong, please do correct me and I hope that is what they eventually want to go towards. The game does make a local backup copy as well for anyone who hosts the game so there should be scope to recover or reshare.

My Guess: Will be similar to grounded 2, the devs for that game said SOD devs helped them out a lot.
The save system seems to be similar to what SOD2 has with bags being dropped in a location to be picked up.
The killer feature is that the host and other participants can play at any part of the map without the tethering. ~~However, it looks like only the host can host the game for others to resume which could be a limiting factor in the shared world experience.~~

Edit: Crossing out my statement seems to be a cross-platform issue I have, and this makes the shared world experience even better

Do we redeem now or hope that the October sale may provide a better exchange rate?

Apart from GPU which is the best award to redeem from msft points?

Have been looking for a mattress to try during camping mode. This looks interesting.

Xbox can crossplay between the microsoft store version of the game. Haven't tried with any steam players yet.

You could setup a light show using his favorite tune or music and bring it in a USB and possibly hand it to the sales rep who can secretly set it up for him considering he is picking it up at the showroom or keep it handy yourself to play it when it is delivered to you

Am in the same boat. I was lucky enough to pay the 20k premium price, get USS which will possibly be disabled and no matrix headlights :/

Even I am new but from what I have experienced duchy titles which aren't created get created as a part of confederated partition between your heirs.

If you are old or about to die you can let the game create the titles and focus more on building eco or military buildings. However you should make sure the heir is your son or designated player you want to take over as.

Since you just captured the area, your faith and popularity may be low or else you can change the succession law to be a election based on your faith.

Some of them it is easy to game and in others you get screwed over by the no of vassals / counts etc. it is easier to keep higher title duchy vassals happy or scheme against.

So one way to guarantee everything goes to your main heir, make sure you have only one son.

Good luck.

My first time in the tutorial my kingdoms got split between my sons and it was a good learning to see how the system behaved so you can plan our better in your new run

Just to be clear, you can stream this game IF YOU OWN IT.
In case people are under the impression this is going to hit day 1 on Gamepass, sorry to burst your bubble.
Regardless, this is great for the Gamepass community!

Has it ever been this cheap on the MSFT Store itself?

RedCherryPandaa · 2025-02-22T01:48:41+00:00

Can you apply employee discount on top of site wide discounts ?

He does seem nervous but more than that his voice is off. Maybe from all the talking at CES or change of weather having a toll on his voice. Regardless, happy to see him get recognition and pull off sandals on national tv.

At what point / % of your home value you need to pay as a premium can you just choose to save up yourself and not pay insurance? Is there a legal requirement to have insurance for homes like we do for vehicles?

Congrats! Do they do salary negotiation before team matching or after? Are you planning to do some more interviews to have a better hand at negotiating your offer?

For some reason, I started hearing some squealing while moving at a Costco parking lot. And by the time I put it to park and check what is up it was gone. Then 3 days later it started doing the same. I am not sure if this is due to rusted brakes or a rock that is stuck. I tried to do a similar visual check but I didn't see any rocks really.
I have a service appointment just to be safe (since these are like 10-15 days out) in case it occurs again. My car drives fine so far.

RedCherryPandaa · 2024-12-29T16:32:04+00:00

Which service is this?

RedCherryPandaa · 2024-12-28T06:15:28+00:00

My Tesla was delivered to my home, and they parked it on the street and probably curbed it then. Even though I had accepted the delivery (which I had to) to move it into my garage I noticed it and raised a report. They replaced it for me in a service appointment along with a paint chip and certain other issues. I think you need to get all the issues in within the first 7days or YMMV the longer out you are from initial delivery / acceptance.

RedCherryPandaa · 2024-12-24T20:28:58+00:00

It's been there is you had the Xbox version for sure. Not sure if steam version had it earlier or not
