Downloaded GTA a few days ago, went to play it yesterday only to see it was gone

That was flagged up a while ago, replaced by Red Dead Redemption 2.

Thanks for that, in terms of loading up, has anyone used Rapido to order Live Codes?

At 48 Euro for the year seems to be the cheapest I can find.

Never used (or heard of) Rapido, but it's €45 on CDkeys. CDkeys has a worldwide code that's more expensive, the EU one works for us.

Was I imagining it, or was there a golf game on Game Pass a couple of weeks ago which is no longer there?!

I'm happy to be able to try out DayZ without buying it. Anyone else playing it on here?

Golf Club 2 was there, didn't see an expiry notice for it but it appears to be gone.

I didn't see anything about it being removed either so was wondering if I had imagined seeing it there!

Anyone having any trouble with NBA 2k20 on gamepass? I've started up the mycareer mode a few times and every time I do I get randomly kicked back out to the main screen with some message about me needing to be connected to the 2K servers or signed in to access this mode. I've given up on the game as a result because its driving me crazy. First time it happened I was midway through the first college game or whatever it is for the Bay area team, 2nd time was just as that game started and then it happened a few times while I was in the player creation screen.

I'd heard lots of complaints about microtransactions but its a bit of shambles if it kicks you out of a game mode because it loses connection to the 2K servers, it doesn't save my progress or anything either so not like i can jump back in.

They're after dropping the price of the base game down to €5 today (on PSN), so might be a surge in people connecting causing this... I'm tempted myself!

To be honest I've NEVER had an issue with being disconnected like that and ive played a lot since launch.

I've been kicked after loading a park game a few times where a timer comes up just as the game was due to start.
That's still only happened a handful of times.

Usually if I lose connection it would be an XBL issue and not just 2k.

I had a fair few issues with 2k20 when starting out aswell. Thought it may have been because Im in the attic playing over a wifi extender, but it was the only game that ever gave me that problem. Be half way through a game, flying, then booted out.
Hasn't happened to me in a few weeks now and I would play probably 3 or 4 games of career a night now.

I've not played NBA 2k20 myself, but had issues with being kicked out of apps/signed out of XBOX live multiple times.

Have you checked if your NAT Type in the XBOX network settings is Open or Moderate rather than Strict? Sometimes you have to enable UPnP on your router for the device.

Download the iZurvive app and that'll help you find where you are.
Its a steep learning curve. The link below might help with some things.

Loved the look of that pre-release and then watched the car crash of a launch and forgot all about it, could be an ideal game for passing lots of hours.

It's a much better game now than it was at launch.

Yes, I remember being uninterested in this at prelaunch, and then spending several days laughing at all the memes that came out once it launched.

I'd sort of followed it since, and it became clear over the years that they've spent ages improving and getting it right. It's something that I admire in a developer/publisher, so I decided to actually buy it a while back to support them. Have I played it since? God no, way too many games on my backlog.
