Together with the next pack of games for subscribers Xbox Live Gold Microsoft announced the increase in prices for the service. The company motivated this in vibrations in regional markets: they say, in some places the cost of Gold has not changed for years.
However, after the discontent of the community Microsoft Refused to increase:
Today we have done stupid things, and you quite rightly let us know about it. Communication and playing with friends is a vital part of the gaming. We could not live up to the expectations of players who are constantly counting on this part. As a result, we decided not to change the price of Xbox Live Gold.
Along with this Microsoft announced that for conditionally paying games, the Xbox Live Gold subscription will no longer be needed. A feature will enter into force in the coming months. Thus, Xbox Live moved closer to that the player remains in the center of the entire Expirence, the corporation writes. Previously, Gold was needed for all multi -user games, including for Freedia.
Recall that Nintendo Switch and PlayStation have never required similar subscriptions for conditionally paying games, that is, Xbox Live Gold becomes slightly more like competitors. And the increase in Russia’s prices did not concern at all: the local Xbox unit claimed in the commentary for Stopgame.ru, that in our region the cost of Xbox Live Gold will not change.
To Bring Xbox Live More in Line with How See the Player At the Center of their Experience We will be red-reads for free-Play Games.
We’re Starting Work on that Immediatly and Will Have Updates in the Coming Months. Details: https: // t.Co/Twomnawmp9

But it generally seems to me that this is all a well -planned sabotage. Rumors about free F2P Games have been for a very long time, and now our multi -dedicated Microsoft makes an announcement about increasing the cost of subscription, society, as it should be indignant, but! Microsoft takes and changes the decision to maintain prices, and in addition also confirms the long -lasting rumors. As a result, society rejoices, says how to live great in the world and everyone is satisfied, and Microsoft looks the most loyal, fluffy for the whole game society. Bravo! 🙂
I tried to take even more money for the air, did not ride and still made free games free, oh well done so well done.
1 T -shirts promised the most powerful console in the world, judging by the video with DF, they did not work.
The Mayikov console is stronger than Sonya – yes. And therefore the most powerful in history, because I somehow did not notice other more powerful consoles on sale. You have a different reality? Well, to measure power by vidos from a YouTube is powerful.
6 Your Phil himself said that Gampass at the moment does not bring much money. But Sonya earn a lot of games.
So much that Nintendo with a weaker console has circulation even for their top 10 games on the switch with a circulation of 2 times larger than top1 Sonya.
And no one says that T -shirts do not earn on games, one does not interfere with the other.
5 T -shirts tried to raise prices, but again crap.
But Sony as raised, so immediately for everything and up to 70-80. Conscious of customers)
But they did not crap, yes?
3 not a single exclusive on the release of the game
Against the whole one in Sonya. Ah, yes, 2, I forgot about the techno-dermat on the console.
Sony stably release one of the best games of the year, aaa games receiving masses of premiums. What Mikes release? Second -rate and low -budget turkey.
T -shirts make games of different genres for different users. Yes. Until AAA came out, but it is not that monotonous onli ecshons from 3 faces is better. Already people have forgotten when Sonya released something else genre.
What do we promise Mikes this year? Tell me what games will be released this year, for which it is worth taking xbox?
Halo, AWOWDED, FABLE, Stalker 2. And this is only for a vapid.
How many negative words, they have offended you somewhat? All companies are looking for benefits, you have not discovered this America, but to say that everyone who wants the money “Completed bastards”, well, somehow I don’t know. Drink the seagull with candy calm.
For the beginning of the new generation they lose and how rats in the corner do not know what to come up with
And buying Bethesda is also from not knowledge of what to do ?
These as you wrote “Continished Bastards” release http://electric-spins-casino.co.uk/ all their eczes on a PC and I do not have to buy a console for the sake of force and gears.
I will apparently surprise you, but Sonya does not make money on selling his exclusives, Sony’s own games are lure. They earn on transactions from third -party developments. You buy something in Fordetnite for PS and 30% of this amount goes to sonyam. Here on this they earn fixed assets. It seems far from the gaming industry here are you, it is Fiasco, Rosher.
Apparently shirts cannot do this, this is exclusively Sonya preferences? Your OBER No. 1
Prices increased not only by Sonya, but from everyone, figure out? You don’t know the materiel again. Moreover, Sony left regional prices in Russia and it amounts to 5500 rubles per standard publication, and this is not 70-80 euros, this is Fiaco No. 2, Rosher
But not everyone has fun, T -shirts did not raise prices. And consider the price tag in 5500 regional, despite the fact that 75 multiplied by 70 = 5250, this is also below your regional price tag. So from Sonya just from the shovel a regional price tag, thanks, so thanks. Your OBER No. 2. This is checked by an elementary calculator.
Sonya released Miles, demons and astrobot, by the way, Astobot is very funny. And you know what? This is 3 cool games more than Mikes
Miles is not exclusive, it is on PS4. But consider the astrobot not technoderma (albeit very good) is absurd. Tell me there about the plot? Music and so on besides gameplay.
And even so, I called them. After all, 1.5 more than 0 is so much that right. OBER No. 3.
Look at the presentation of Sonya, they announced many games of different genre, for different ages.
But the shirts did not announce anything, again the exceptional prerogative of Sonya. One mountain of games in the air, against another. But the advantage is still for Sonya, because … this is Sonya. Logical
Maybe Sony release a lot of third -person games because people like it? Because the owners of Plasteshin like it? So I love third -person games much stronger than from the first, I went through everything that I wanted on a PC and bought PS4 for new sensations.
It is obvious that if you do not give any other genres, then people who like other genres will not appear. That there is the last from Sonya and not from 3 faces? Detroit (which is from 3, but conditionally turn on it), Dream-designer and resistant? Strongly in 7 years
And by the way, from the announced games of Sony, the overwhelming part of the action is again from 3 faces, even which go for children. Incredible diversity.
I will prefer 10 third -person games from Sonya AAA of quality than a hundred incomprehensible turkey indi, well, let’s estimate it is more pleasant to play high -quality games.
But the shirts do not make turkey, but I don’t understand the games.
It seems to me in another reality you are you. DF measure power not by vidos, they have a bunch of measurements and both consoles with games and show with examples according to personnel what and who is better. And judging by their measurements in most games, Sonya shows better performance in reality, on the example of real games, and not in the capacities of the prefix on paper. This is the OBER MAIKOV
A strong statement, taking into account not a single game from the Mikes themselves. But just in the multi -platform, everything is by no means definitely how you declare.
It is stupid to say that T -shirts are losing and they are definitely not driven in the corner of the rat.
The fact that quantitatively at the beginning of the new generation they will concede this was initially undoubtedly, because the last generation users of Juan had about 60 million, and Sonya had 110 million. It is obvious that while maintaining the library of the previous generation, people will prefer the same ecosystem.
And nonsense, about the lack of advantages, only a person far from the gamroser can speak. Firstly, T-shirts are stupidly richer, they can stupidly buy and sell and sell several times. Secondly, they have a gampass, working and popular, and not abandoned in the corner of Psnow. And thirdly, the Mikov market is not only a box, but also a PC and release of games and there and there brings money and loyalty of the audience, which Sonya does not do.
That is why PC players 100% do not lose anything from the purchase of the gazebo by T-shirts, even rather, on the contrary, the budgets of the T-shirts are allocated normal and you can not be afraid of the free-tank of the elements in the scrolls, which could be in the gazebo in the financial crisis.
T-shirts not so long ago began their new policy, it is obvious that AAA-Blokbasters still stupidly physically did not manage.
Thus, I meant that T -shirts lose the beginning of a new generation, they have no advantages, then what they promised to be just marketing, so they are looking for solutions
I do not see any defeat at the start, the correct conclusions were made after the failure of the Xbox One with their media center and now the money is invested in games (including the purchase of developers).
You, as a PC player, on the contrary, it should be scary that T -shirts bought a befezd. Nothing good will come out of this.
Seriously? After the news about buying Bethesda T -shirts, I got a chance to see Prey 2 or a new part of Dishonored, which were sold badly and would have been in charge of new parts to give a green light.
They finance their gaming projects very mediocre, the games do not pull on AAA.
Forza Horizon does not pull? In my opinion, this is the best arcade race of recent years or weights do not pull on a strong AAA shooter?
It is foolish to deny that T -shirts in this generation can give a fight Sonya, only good games and T -shirts are needed in this direction.
I just remind you that the king of the past generation (diverse) of the (various) singles of the past generation was a gazebo with Wulfenstein, Duma, Follaut, Diskhore, the Continu and Ilt of the Bidness. Now this company belongs to microsoft.
They introduced a fee for the air (online).
In fairness, when they introduced this fee (at the time of the original boxing) their service really was a cut above all that was on the market and offered the features of which no one had, even to the PC, the fact that they no longer canceled the fee this is another question and the same Sonya did not even comply with the service that Microsoft provided for the same money.
Nothing that Outer Worlds was not sponsored by T -shirts and was not declared like aaa? The game has a publisher of Private Division and the game itself was originally declared as a grade, T -shirts even bought Obsidian after its announcement.
Not to talk about this to the player in the eczes of Sonya, otherwise I can remember about TLOU 2 and Horizon Zero Dawn Koi have even greater influence SJW
The capacities of the younger box is enough to play in 1080p. A full -fledged console at the price of a budget video card. And its very existence, in general, suggests that the multi-platform-exclusives will be developed in one way or another with an eye on this device.
2.5 exclusive, for which you could buy a console, went to PS in the previous generation. Some of them, as a result, went to PC.
If you have a game PC – you do not need any console at all. Consoles compete with each other, and not with PC.
To present the merits of the periphery, such as good sound and the capabilities of the gamepad, which most likely most developers will be ignored (hello, the touchpad for dualoshko 4), and half of the remaining ones are used at best “for a checkmark”, in the worst, as the unconsciousness of the console, this is just a fanboy. Duagsens can be bought without purchasing PlayStation. The periphery is the periphery. If in a year small-laws release the gamepad a la Duagsens, then what will happen?
Boxing offers convenience without an imaginary raid of elitism. I bought a box, brought it home, set it, charged Gampass and play. There are hundreds of games at one side by a catchy price, and even with more than sane inverse compatibility, and even an constantly updated list, and even the appearance of games in this very passage of the small -haired on the release day. On the other – several exclusives that conceptually differ from each other in the same way as Marvel films, and a cool gamepad.
“And judging by their measurements in most games, Sonya shows better performance in reality, on the example of real games, and not in the capacities of the prefix on paper. This is the OBER MAIKOV "
OBER MAIKOV only in the fact that they sent the girls and technical guidels late (or what it is called there) because of which they managed to make optimization better for the curling iron. I would follow the news – I would know.
“Sony released Miles, demons and astrobot, by the way, Astobot is very funny. And you know what? This is 3 cool games more than Mikes "
And the meaning of Mikes to release cool games for the console, which still has few and they are doomed to low sales? Anyway, what a stupid tendency to measure games at the start? Nafig who needs them in the presence of reverse compatibility? It is obvious that they are made for a checkmark. Astobe technology, demons remake, miles de facto dlts. It doesn’t smell like any cool AAA.
Maybe Sony release a lot of third -person games because people like it?
They release them because they completely forgot how to do something new and experiment, as it was before. They fell into the comfort zone: their plot-oriented adventure action from a third person is easy to advertise and easily inspire players that this is something super-quality.
Prices increased not only by Sonya, but from everyone, figure out? You don’t know the materiel again. Moreover, Sony left regional prices in Russia and it amounts to 5500 rubles per standard publication, and this is not 70-80 euros, this is Fiaco No. 2, Rosher
While the games of the MIKs from the start appear in the game pass, which will be cheaper to pay for a year than buy two Sony games.
I will prefer 10 third -person games from Sonya AAA of quality than a hundred incomprehensible turkey indi, well, let’s estimate it is more pleasant to play high -quality games.
And I will prefer one immersion of Sim Arkynov even a hundred monotonous Sonya gamerblockbasteers.
Well, yes, Nice believe that the budget is = quality. Indi is now the only sector where people are trying to create some innovations, are looking for fresh approaches to the narrative and gameplay. Because the competition is high and in this market without fresh ideas is not so simple. Unlike the AAA sector, which trusts on the advertising budget and suitcases to journalists. And yes, not a single Sonya game in terms of the plot and script even close, even for a milimeter came close to Disco Elysium.
Personally, I have no trust in these guys that they can immediately release something playable. Maybe over time yes.
On the Anrili Angin, you still have to try to release something non-playful. Typically, problems on the release with bugs and optimization for those who work with their own engine, like the same x-ray in Stalker.
Two and a half exclusive at a greater price for the console and for games? While the box has a junior box for 35k and a signature model, when you are poured with a bucket, take and play at the price of one game on PS? Also a single ecosystem with a PC, you can play games from a pass and run there. Seriously how much you need to be a fan of Sonya, what would you buy a PlayStation in this generation?
It would not skate? T -shirts could not make concessions, and the Juzers of the Huans, like those mice, cried, shouted, but would continue to pay at a new price, or sit offline. Well, as I already said the strategy "you can’t do well, do bad and then return it as it was" quite working.
You are aware that there were 70 euros in Europe (because 60 euros +10 euros of tax)? The prices of the games are in the first place in the first place – and nothing has changed there – 60 bucks have always been (just like in Europe, 70 euros are always taxed, so the T -shirts did not change anything in Europe)
But the price of eczes from Sonya suddenly. You just don’t understand the issue in which I decided to argue here and that’s all.
And Sonya is also bastards?
Good news, a lot of new "economical" players awaits us. 🙂 As one-famous person “We will see” one well-known in narrow circles.
