    Hi, did I not hear on the radio that there are issues with this game and people are being refunded? Maybe not, sorry if I'm wrong.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,624 ✭✭✭Thor

    My delivery date is now 21-22 December. That pleases me.

    I tried Stadia this week on my PC, but my PC is connected to a wi-fi extender yoke (awkward layout) and my speeds here are not consistent. My TV is next to the internet router and we have gigabit, so I have high expectations.

    its not as bad as its being made out, I havent played on base console but the stadia version should run much better than those so this is still a great bargain ( that i am raging i missed out on )

    Got my bundle today !!
    At the moment I played on laptop using Xbox 360 controller. Gonna try stadia controller first with laptop.

    This was the bargain of the year for me. After seeing mainly negative or lukewarm reviews, I’m surprised how well stadia works using the chromecast ultra and stadia controller. Judging by the whole PS4 debacle, it is also one of the better ways to play Cyberpunk 2077 short of buying a €3000 gaming PC. It’s a great game. Thanks OP.

    I've put about 20 hours into it on Xbox Series X and bar one funny glitch, thoroughly enjoying it.

  • Registered Users Posts: 104 ✭✭drver1

    Still waiting on mine. Tracking says its in Dublin and was sent to wrong depot twice, so assuming it won't be here until next week at earliest now.

    For those who got it, how's the performance of cyberpunk like on chromecast? I tried on pc, but my pc is far away from network hub, and connects using ethernet connected to a wireless extender. Performance looked decent, but it's work pc and work keyboard/trackball, so wasn't easiest to play with...

    In my experience, it works very, very good. I had a few minor stutters, but I'm nearly sure that it was just my internet acting up.

    Apart from that, there were a few bugs and glitches, but nothing major to happen the experience.

    Sounds like Xbox's game pass service might offer something similar down the line too: https://www.theverge.com/2020/10/23/21529925/xbox-tv-streaming-stick-xcloud-cloud-gaming-phil-spencer-interview

    It already does on android and some titles can be played on PC

    Has anyone had any issues in receiving their order for this? My original order had delivery date of 11th - 12th January, but was dispatched on 18th December. Was supposed to be delivered by 22nd, but the tracking went awry. I chased with DHL as the courier who told me the worst thing possible for a delivery - it was handed over to Fastway for local delivery, DHL just get it to Ireland.

    Fastway helpfully sent the parcel to a South West depot and a Dublin depot (I'm in Cork) before saying the parcel was lost. They then sent an auto-update to say the item is now marked as return to sender. Their customer service is useless.

    I have been in touch with Google directly via email. They initially told me that I needed to wait until 12th January, as this was original delivery date (even though I had already been told by Fastway at this point that parcel was lost). I got back in touch with them after Fastway advised it's return to sender, Google replied to advise that the item was delivered and didn't offer any sort of apology or solution.

    I've tried to get Google to sort a callback, but that fails, so I'm kind of left without any real avenue other than more emails. Frustrating isn't the word. I've not had a proper chance to use Stadia as a result (my computer is a work machine, connects to VPN/etc, and I need the controller to get any benefit on phone). The Stadia pro trial was a complete waste as a result.
