Gamepass quests Microsoft Redeem points

skerry · 26-06-2022 10:26am

My 3 achievements were there when I turned Xbox on this morning. I did do them close to midnight so wondering was that a bad time to go popping achievements

Just checked and I've 50 more than when I went to bed alright 👍

When it's glitchy, yes! But when it's playing nice it shouldn't matter when you do it, seconds later you can redeem the points 😊

rob808 · 26-06-2022 3:33pm

I can't seem to get the 50 points from the achieve more earn more and the bing search points seem laggy like sometime it register it have problems with mobile ones to so annoying this weekend.

Weekly treasure is there now.

Oddly, couldn't get any of my searches yesterday to count in the rewards app, had to use Edge again today to get to 50 searches to complete the weekly yoke. Pain to have to use it...

marcbrophy · 27-06-2022 12:22pm

I have 50 searches in a collection in Edge, that I normally kick off and get the daily search count for PC.

I had to do this at least 20 times yesterday, making over 1,000 searches for 30 to count!

Had to do more than 100 searches on "mobile" (it's really on firefox with user agent switcher set to chrome mobile) to get 20 needed to count!

I'm not doing that very often, they better cop on!

I noticed it takes about 20 seconds for a search to register, but if you clicked on another search within that time it didn't register as 2 searches. I reckon it's to stop people clicking through it , best way is to put edge as your default browser , well played Microsoft.

Same here. I noticed the URL on Edge mobile had some additional stuff in the URL that I thought was stopping it from registering. Painful stuff.

marcbrophy · 27-06-2022 2:47pm

I just think they're having trouble tracking at the moment!

I'm genuinely sitting here clicking on searches every 2 or 3 seconds, seeing the points go up!

Their me be a limit on number of searches per minute or something, but it was all fine up until last weeks weekly update on Tuesday! Maybe it'll go away this Tuesday 😁

28-06-2022 4:18pm

Haven't got the daily 50 points since Saturday, I suppose it's easier to swallow with the search points now. See some mention of it on reddit too.

marcbrophy · 28-06-2022 4:28pm

The way I got the 50 points to pop yesterday, was to reboot the console.

Now, I've no idea if it'll work for everyone or if it'll even work again! But I tried 10 times to pop it yesterday, with no tick appearing. Then I reboot the console, into the rewards app and it popped first try.

I'm leaning on it being a total co-incidence, but if there's trouble popping today's one, I'll try again 😁

theteal · 28-06-2022 4:44pm

I can echo the searches are being a bit crap the last few days. What's weirder, it gave me the measly 12 (I think) pints for doing searches in Edge but still didn't register any of the 90 actual search points. Also the daily set bits take multiple clicks but that's been like that a while

marcbrophy · 28-06-2022 4:52pm

I just did today's searches and they all registered!

So hoping that week of bad tracking is over!

It always seem to last Tuesday to Tuesday!

rob808 · 28-06-2022 6:36pm

The achieve more earn more 50 points is glitch to he'll . I'm finding it hard to get these past few days notting seem to work.

marcbrophy · 28-06-2022 10:00pm

Yeah, the earn 50 is still acting the bollix 😆

DarkJager21 · 29-06-2022 9:59am

Do they ever have weeks where these 50 searches aren't a requirement? I've had the Xbox about 5 weeks now and not once have I been able to get this counter to go up - signed in to Bing on mobile, laptop and Xbox and it never registers even one.

It's a pretty **** requirement anyway particularly for Xbox, if I wanted to browse the internet or search engines id use my phone or laptop.

It's not there every week but it is there most weeks. Some weeks it's replaced with "earn 200 points"

You can use your phone or laptop, I just use the bing app on android. It is a pain in the arse though in fairness.

Quickest way I find is to search a premier league team's squad. So search "Arsenal squad", then you will get pictures of all the players along the top, just click these pictures one by one and each one counts as a search. When you have exhausted one team just search another. Two teams are usually enough.

Are they looking for 50 searches on the actual xbox? I've never seen that here (UK), not sure I'd be bothered, I can barely bring myself to do the mobile searches (as you can see below) and they're quite quick in reality. I just do them on the laptop in Edge by right-clicking on my saved folder - everything working much better today also

theteal · 29-06-2022 11:25am

Also the quickest way to search (I'm sure I've proffered this here before) is to just save a bunch of random searches to a folder in Edge. Then right-click, open all. . . .and watch your crappy work laptop struggle for a moment while it opens every tab instantly, leave it for a minute while you get on with your day

This doesn't work for the 50 searches weekly reward though, as that has to be on mobile. Pain in the hole...

agreed, the mobile searches I often leave and when I do have a go it's usually on the "throne of solitude". Quickest way I have found for that is the below - in Edge, search something like "movies 2022", then click on the first result. The screen will then changes to give you a scrollable list across the top of screen. Click on the right-most result and the screen will refresh and move the list along so you only have to click in the same place however many times - each click counts as a search. That browser page stays alive in the background on my phone and I just flick the list back to the beginning to start the process over - when I do think of actually doing them, that is.

Treppen · 29-06-2022 3:08pm

You can do the edge searches on your phone too if you change settings to desktop.

Still have to click individually though (as far as I know), but like the bing searches type in something common like Jupiter or Cuphead then you get a clickable set across the top.

29-06-2022 5:09pm

It's amazing where you end up from the searches, I started with Tour de France and ended up on My little pony today 😂

If you lose the clickable search phrases at the top for images, move over to video results it's quicker than doing a new search.

The Achieve more earn more still isn't working for me.

marcbrophy · 02-07-2022 4:43pm

That Disc Room is so annoying!

It's a brilliant fun little game, with a cool mechanic, but the achievements only pop when they feel like it!

I've gotten all 6 abilities 2 days ago, but the achievement for it still won't register 🤔

Done more stuff today that should have popped another achievement, nothing... 😒

Treppen · 05-07-2022 7:19pm

New month up today.

First off... AMEMs and achievements are glitchy for a lot of people AGAIN!

So maybe wait till tomorrow.

The 2 weeklys start up quicker on mobile xcloud (don't need controller) , they didn't log in for me on my console using cloud

500 PT monthly bonus Achievements:

Easy one is to start up Library of Ruinia Literally just start a New Game, and that's it. (NB a lot of people did this easy one back in February, so check your true achievements).

Another easy one is in Edge of Eternity, which has an achievement for finishing your first battle, which is like a tutorial, is story-based, and unmissable. It occurs within the first 4-6 minutes of gameplay.

Also a longer walkthrough here...

Weekly Treasure is there today 🥳

marcbrophy · 07-07-2022 9:59pm

I saw 3 extra +10 at the rewards hub earlier on Edge!

https://rewards.bing.com

On a personal note, I just hit a 100 week streak 🙂

Also, I think i've made more than 9,000 points since I withdrew funds on June 22nd.

Had just over 21,000 then and now just shy of 30,600

Treppen · 08-07-2022 8:38am

I see They're in the bing mobile app too.

Where are you getting the weekly streak thing?

In the rewards app on the xbox dashboard!

The one where you got to do 3 things for 100 points each week.

theteal · 08-07-2022 10:22am

They've fixed something on the back end in the last week. I'm noticing the Daily set bits are popping green now as soon as clicked - was taking multiple attempts the week before.

Yeah I'm on week streak 94ish on the xbox. Was planning on posting my tally here at 100

Nyum Nyum · 15-07-2022 8:57am

Anyone else noticed this on rewards.bing.com? I certainly didn't opt into anything and the "Manage giving" link just sends you to bing.com so I'm presuming this is either something that shouldn't be on the site or is not ready yet. I'll be keeping my points for myself though, thank you! 🤨

Nice Treppen, I'm getting to the end of the one's that'll pop in Disc Room for me and I've no intention of doing another run for the rest of them!

Peppa Pig it is! 😁

Anyone else feel like a rasher sandwich? 😆

theteal · 15-07-2022 5:38pm

The daughter saw the Peppa and new Paw Patrol games on GP during the week. Oh the joy I had when I realised they weren't released yet. . . .that joy lasted until just now when I saw that and remembered

Ya don't let them play them. They'll be getting all the achievements in one sitting.🤣

My kid started playing Turnip Boy from where I saved and I haven't a clue where the heck he left off. I told him not to go near it again as it has swear words in it.
