    Yeah, it's been available for a few weeks as the early access version was available on PC.

    Oh cool, hadnt realsied that. I only heard about it a couple of days ago. Will give it a look if I ever finish Avowed!

    Wasn't sure what to play, saw your comment, said I'd give it a go, which I must have said previously as I already had it in stalled and have been playing it for the last 7 hours… It's zen like, but likes to remind you it's a crime scene you're cleaning. Like PowerWash Simulators younger brother who wasn't the favourite child. Story is well integrated, unlike PWS, and interested in seeing where it goes. Pure time sink game, but these appeal to me for some reason.

    I'm on the second last case, I think. It's a huge museum. I usually try and sort out the bodies and then the trash and then use the power washer along with UV light even though it can create more trash by destroying vases and bottles. Unlocked the final upgrade for the power washer which allows me to wear as back pack



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,709 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Played a good few more hours, unlocked that backpack last night and I reckon I'm near the end? Just finished the museum so not too far behind you. Great little time sink. Unlimited detergent ftw! Museum was fun, nice little puzzle type level. Story still doing it's best to try and make me feel bad!

    Edit: And done! That was a nice relaxing yet morbid way to spend ~20 hours. No real want to go back and do some of them again, which I got from PWS. But it sets up for dlc, which they've already kinda outlined and will be free, so I expect to come back to it again, on PS5, when the entire thing is done.

    There you go

    I think you should have PM sent that to him as if he is not online someone else will take the code.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,700 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    I can send him one if he still needs it

    Metaphor refantazio coming to game pass. Didn't realise until I checked the "coming soon " tab on the dashboard. Too many games.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,608 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    That's unbelievable. I bought that late last year. Big Atlus fan. Honestly, Game Pass is unreal value for money



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,612 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,612 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Played an hour or so, definitely feels like the opposite of power wash simulator. It is cool that you have to apply masking tape before you paint



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,608 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    Oh that sounds so satisfying... Love power wash simulator. It actually makes me nod off, it's that relaxing.

    Edit: fixed autocorrect typo. Powerwash autocorrected to postage... Postage simulator? Sounds like that scandal in the UK...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,709 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I can concur with Eoins view that it's reverse Powerwash Simulator. It's not as good in some regards, it's not as smooth as PWS, but it's better in other ways, such as the prep work of masking. I thought that might be annoying but it added an extra layer once you get to the third mission. I liked art in school, but I'm not an artist by any stretch of the imagination, and this game makes me feel like I am. So far anyway. It's satisfying in the same way PWS is. But different. And runs really well on my rig, which is great!

    Edit: Spoke too soon, appear to have the scaffolding bug which means I can't complete the 4th level so can't progress. Uninstalling allegedly doesn't help, nor does restarting, you either have it or you don't. Another one further on apparently stopping a lot of people too. So I'd say give it a bit more time to cook and a few updates before jumping in.

    What's the current cheapest method to stack GPU?
    I can see EA Play 12 month on Amazon for £20 and that converts 3:1, so €72 for 1 year +1 month GPU
    CDKeys is €48 for 12 months converting at 2:1, so €96 for 1 year +1 month GPU

    Any other options?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,593 ✭✭✭xtal191


    3 of these https://www.kinguin.net/category/12710/xbox-live-12-months-gold-eu-subscription-card

    And

    1 of these https://www.kinguin.net/category/65091/xbox-game-pass-ultimate-1-month-eu-xbox-one-windows-10-cd-key

    Should get you 19 months, might be cheaper on other key sites



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,333 ✭✭✭brady12


    Thanks for that btw . I did it too the night you posted it 👍🏻

    Thanks for this. A bit tight for cash so just bought the 12 months core and the one month ultimate, got a free month for turning on recurring billing so I got 8 months ultimate for €58. Paid up till next march so happy days

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,625 ✭✭✭DeSelby83


    My GP expires in 2 months. Is it possible to buy the codes now and wait until it expires before I do the usual core to GP conversion.

    Have a funny feeling they are going to be upping prices soon and changing the conversion rate



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,355 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    You could buy the codes now, but if they change the conversion rate before your existing sub ends then you wouldn't gain any benefit.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,625 ✭✭✭DeSelby83


    Ye that's true alright. Think I'll buy the codes now and if rumours start about conversion changes then I'll cancel my subscription and re sub with current conversion rates. Worst case id be losing 6 weeks.

    Edit: looks like the India codes method has been blocked now too.

    Not sure if this is the right place but I'll go anyway

    I was playing COD6 multiplayer on game pass for the past year - never any issues, able to play anytime of the day

    for the past couple of nights multiplayer isn't working - Matchmaking unavailable due to latency issues (try late last night with no other devices connected but same error message)

    I usually play over wifi so tried cable last night but no change

    Playing on samsung TV with the xbox app

    at home nothing has changes, no new devices that would clog up bandwidth etc

    I have turned the router on and off a few times but no joy

    This happened before 1-2 weeks back, a couple of exits from game and reconnect worked.

    I feel this is a game pass issue but looking to see if anybody else encountered this

    ( I can still plat campaign mode and all other games I have tried on game pass are working)

    Any ideas?

    Yeh, multiplayer / zombies has had intermittent jank over the last couple of weeks for me too.
