The latency is actually always lower when choosing performance mode at 60FPS, 30FPS will always add some latency because it's half the FPS.

@xirxes

Ай бұрын

This right here, I'd like to see a 120hz option, even on displays that can't do it, just to bring the input latency down.

you will feel less latency at 60fps because the frametime has less latency (16.67ms) instead of 33.3 with 30fps. Same thing will apply with 120fps (8.3ms),the more the frames are,the less the latency will be,both locally and cloud.

When you mentioned that "Many people weren't into cloud gaming because we don't own the games etc" the real main reason is because the latency and feeling of the games is still wonky even with great Internet. So it makes the gaming experience unenjoyable

@TheScepticalThinker1 I know Gamepass Cloud is still in Beta so im not to upset because they have a great amount of games. I only cloud with small indie games or not so demanding games like Forza for example. So far i give it 7/10 because i know over time it will improve

4:10 that's because when you choose performance mode the stream gets encoded in 60 fps, so frames will be served faster. Choosing 30 fps will have twice as much latency for each frame (33.3ms vs. 16.6ms). And because your internet connection is stable and high speed enough, that makes the input latency lower because there's no added jitter or anything like that from the extra frames being fed.

This looks pretty cool. I don't own an Xbox or PS5 and can't justify the cost. But this is most of the experience for almost no cost and pairs nicely with my Gamepass PC account. This will let me game anywhere I can plug in the stick or just leave the PC turned off. I like it. On the other hand, cannot say I like the Firestick ethernet adapter. It tops out at 300mbps so pretty much any decent wifi signal is going to blow it out of the water. I have several of those adapters but gave up using them and now run all my Fire devices and Android TV boxes over wifi 6 with no issues.

I remember when I read it from the News: Xbox gaming is is coming for the TV and like in Xbox's The Fire Stick Max trailer where unknown caller said you don't need to have an Xbox to play an Xbox games because you can play games on your TV what sounds so AWESOME this is a great move from Xbox and I would LOVE to try it out with games like Palworld even as to have Xbox Series S through which I can play Xbox games hope this works good and will be a succes for Xbox! 💚

Their roadmap is garbage and doomed. No one except Xbox fanboys cares about this shit, and even most of those won't care when there's no plastic box, the ecosystem is barely limping, and third parties keep pulling away from Xbox because Xbox is dead everywhere except the US and third place even here. Xbox diehards think the current support will continue, they aren't using their brains. The current support is the best its going to get, its only downhill from here. Good luck streaming your huge back catalog when MS execs have fired everyone they can, shifted investment exclusively to sure hit games as service, and they have nothing else left to boost numbers. They'll be asking why they are hosting and supporting so many games most of which aren't making them money or even being played by 99% of customers. It will become CoD, and a handful of mega hits only real quick on xcloud.

Well I think it’s easier for most people to pick up a $50 fire tv stick instead of a new Samsung TV. :D I have seen that in action and it does seem to work well. Super glad to see it opened up to a broader audience though.

Gotta say man I appreciate the non bias review everyone is trashing cloud gaming but like you since it started I've used it an this year by far has been the best for cloud gaming the level of improvement is amazing an glad to see the project make it so far an still going to this day!

All this makes me really want is that clean Xbox interface on the Xbox Series with no Ads and just simple menus and another tab for the store. I like that at the top with an Xbox Logo for the Sidebar, main screen for the games. Still hate the current xbox interface.

Think this is a sensible tie up for Microsoft and Amazon, especially this close to Prime Day. Shift a load of new Fire Sticks and get some new Game Pass subs too.

I don’t understand why this app is mot available for the Fire Tv Cube as it’s a more powerful and capable device. 😞

i think that was such a great move , as long as they keep it up to date and making sure it runs GOOD !

I just ordered the Xbox fire stick bundle. You get an Xbox controller, the fire stick 4K, and you will get 1 free month of game pass ultimate. It was $68

I got it today - works great. Thea idea is for the wife & kids to use it, when I am at work. My Series X was looking at me strange though, when I approached the tv with that tiny fire stick...

Cloud Gaming has a looooong way to go. Also a lot of Americans live in rural areas with terrible Internet.

The MOST important question is Can I access my Library of Games ????

this is the future believe it or not,consoles will desapair at some point,if there were no lag while playing on the cloud youd not need a console already

To me, game streaming is like the printer and ink scam. Firestick, or Chromecast, or whatever is cheap. Xbox Cloud is also one of the better streaming experiences. But when I had Ultimate, I was paying $257.50 CAD a year (with tax) and I wasn't even playing the vast majority of games on there. Worked out cheaper to just wait for sales and buy them outright. Plus with streaming, you're limited to what's on Game Pass. Local hardware, while more expensive up front, is still the better investment IMO. I own the hardware, I own (an indefinite license at least) the games, experience is always consistent, works with bad or no internet, you can sell the hardware when you're done with it, and consoles tend to retain a good chunk of their resale value as they age.

Can you stream from Xbox console, locally on the same lan ? Or it is cloud only. ?

Such a great option, especially for people who want to casually game but don't want to shell out a lot for an Xbox

WIRED CONTROLLER Iv had ultimate sense it launched on pc a wired controller gets you almost no latency. You need something like a hub for firestick but wired controller is best no matter were you stream it.

It's amazing for games like Octopath Traveler and other RPGs.

Seems like Google should be sprinting to allow both Xbox Gamepass and Luna (and every other streaming game service) to be easy and functional on the Chromecast. Sideloading is probably the answer. But Google should've transitioned away from Stadia to its usual strategy of selling access and not the end product.

I picked up a stick for $35 best console ever 👍 value for the money. Will it work with a Luna controller?

So i connected 2 controllers.....but they both seem to be the main controller. Any idea how to pair 2 remotes to the stick and have them independent just like xbox for 2 player mode?

It would be nice if you could stream games you own like the andoid xbox app. I don't have game pass and this would be nice if I could steam stuff i own.

I have the 4K Max and it still says unavailable for my device. Already checked and stick is updated. Not sure what's up.

I have tried app xbox on my firestick 4k max 2021. I know that my stick was problematic, i had problems of stuttering in video ( netflix, dazn), but i didnt think that xbox app, unofficial, would be so terrible..... Lag lag lag. With my samsung tv crystal uhd 9070, xbox official app, it is perfect. Why? Same router distance, samsung tv with wifi 5ghz, firestick 4k max with wifi 6, same xbox joypad. Ftth 1gbit. My stick is defective?

My cloud sucked on my Xbox. Now I got firestick and it runs smoother. So one TV has my Xbox. And the other my firestick. Now I wonder if you could play 2 games simultaneously.

So basically it's just a streaming option that allows you to play your games from somewhere else? Although, I'm not entirely clear on whether you can stream from your XBox or the just the cloud, and if it's both, it kind of makes sense if you could have your XBox setup at home in the office and then play it on nothing more than a stick device when you go to a friends' house. If that's not an available option then please correct me.
