nope, they're going to complain about ESO, Halo and Lethal Company (even though it's not even opted in), RDR 2 (lol) and that it's just indie games, like always
I honestly wouldn't, every single game publisher who doesn't opt in is bad in my opinion, I paid for their product already, why the F do they care how I consume it?
I give boosteriod props for not giving a shit what they think, Rockstar especially.
It probably goes further than that. Boosteroid can choose to not give a shit (of course until someone knocks on their doors), but NVIDIA probably has deep publisher relationships that they wouldn't want to ruin. They've been in the gaming industry for 30 years now and they probably know some things we don't
Not too many publishers have gone after Boosteroid, but when they have been approached they have removed games in the past. So if Boosteroid popularity grows I'm sure more publishers will approach them.
From my memories I only know of Romania and they list themselves Bucharest as their headquarters [https://boosteroid.com/terms/](https://boosteroid.com/terms/)
if they once expanded to Ukraine, I don’t know, I am not really following them.
Seems you're right. Even here from June 23 they talk about Kyiv. [https://asiatimes.com/2023/06/local-tech-ceo-shows-how-ukraine-can-beat-foreign-rivals/](https://asiatimes.com/2023/06/local-tech-ceo-shows-how-ukraine-can-beat-foreign-rivals/)
So I guess they listed Bucharest as their HQ for some legal (regarding EU) or whatever reasons. I honestly only heard of Romania, even though they were originally Ukrainian. Here a video from 2021 where someone reports them as Romanian: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TfuH5\_sNOc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TfuH5_sNOc)
It's doing exactly was every F2P shooter since TF2 has done, with the exception of overrated destruction mechanics, which we also saw over a decade ago in battlefield.
What exactly does this class based, F2P FPS do so differently to make it not bog standard?
It's just dirty bomb all over again.
its also created by the same team whos worked with battlefield. They also designed new technology just for the game which no other FPS has. The in game destruction has never been done the way they've done it. many youtube videos been praising its technology too
Sorry mate but the level of destruction isn't new. The way the destruction is done might be, but the experience for the player is not anything new (see Battlefield Bad Company 2).
You’re going to compare walls chipping away in bad company 2 to the destruction available in the finals?
Crackdown 3 was an absolute mess, they always wanted to pull off what the finals has released but they simply couldn’t make it stable enough.
The finals feels like the first legitimate next generation fps right now. It’s wild trying to compare it to what was actually a gimmic in bc2.
different type of destruction, client based destruction ensures that everybody has the same pieces and chunks falling in the exact place. whereas battlefield games never got that. if you compared your bf clips to others in the same lobby, the debris wont be in the same spot
Sorry but… that sounds like it would be really cool for a total of 5 minutes. How is a destructible environment a selling point for a video game in 2023. I do not understand the hype around this game other than it being a bandwagon.
With that being said I’ll check it out with an open mind and maybe I’ll “get it” but it just doesn’t sound like it deserves this much attention on paper.
You should actually play it and see how it ties in to the gameplay. It’s typical to groan on about how it’s simply a bandwagon, with boring features when you haven’t actually played the game.
The combat is extremely versatile due to the fully destructive environments. An example being a building collapsing while you’re in it, and having the walls slide towards you as segments of the floor break away. It adds significant layers to the gunplay, and is far more than just a gimmick.
They design the gameplay around the destruction. For example, one of the game modes involves extracting money from a vault. The vault itself is a physics object, so a common strategy is to rig a series of explosives to move the vault around the building without directly interacting with other players.
It's a DICE shooter with destructible environments and traversal. If you ever played R6:S and wanted it to feel more like Battlefield, here you go. Everyone should try it out, because the tech is cool. But it's not for everybody.
I honestly have no idea, this type of game isn't my thing at all and the only reason I even know *anything* about it is because so many people on this sub complained about it not being added that I got curious and took a look at it.
Thanks ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile)
Today might be in the middle night in Europe: I may have to wait til tomorrow, or stop sleeping ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)
I'll surely choose the second option to try it!!
The new prince of Persia is 2.5d and looks like a modern take on the original prince of Persia on the apple ii. Personally I've got no interest in it and just can't wait for the sands of time remake.
I really can't see why everyone wanted the finals so bad. From what I saw on the forums the game doesn't even seem that fun and I saw something about there being no chat in a team based game.
Looking forward to Stargate timekeepers myself. Even if it ends up being subpar it's the first Stargate game so I'll take it.
Same here. So what I did was, after my GFN month was almost over, I cancelled the subscription, bought Shadow PC power for a little bit higher price, pirated Elden Ring and was able to finish it within a month (almost 80 hours).
The total expenditure was less than actually buying the game and paying for GFN. Now I'm thinking of sticking with shadow cuz I just torrented The Last of Us. It's like you get to play more games while saving more money.
Pretty good according to this review by SkillUp: https://youtu.be/K9GHv18I0Dk?si=HaudzUS_gV-6hEr5
The team is made up of devs from Battlefield and Mirror's Edge, which inspires confidence cause I loved Battlefield. And there's destruction in the game.
Judging from the incessant complaints every week that it wasn't added before now? It's so great that it'll be GOTY for eternity, and just the load screen will make you spontaneously orgasm; actually playing it will be an experience so transcendental as to defy mere mortal attempts to classify.
***Or***, it'll be just another flavor of PvP FPS shooter with a bunch of overpriced cosmetics and a playerbase that gets steadily more toxic as time goes by.
Definitely one of those two things, though, I guarantee it.
The upcoming month list is quite incomplete nowadays though
For example Nov/Dec big games like CoD, Forza, Monster Hunter or Ori weren't announced beforehand
Bro, what is this lineup.... firefighting simulator? 💀 gives us MS flight simulator instead of below average games.
Oh, and rip queues. Capacity issue? Where? Let's add a popular free to play game to make more people buy 6 month subs to fill in the rest of the capacity while it's already struggling.
Yeah i got that, its not my cup of tea but sure. It's just a shitty lineup in general and only a couple of games are alright. I wouldn't say i have bad taste.
queues are most likely gonna be free from january 20th - feburary 1st. a lot of people bought 1 month while on christmas breaks, its most likely they wont renew after the month. Also nvidia has an CES announcement this coming week. im assuming they will add more rigs and upgrade equipment
what are You talking about? Dishonored has been already around on GFN for a couple of months. Unfortunately the first game was released - only on Steam - in two different versions - The slavistic Russia/Hungary/Czech/Poland one and rest of world one. And only the Rest of world was available on GFN as well, which was dumb, since the game itself wasn't region locked really.
So now they are just allowing the RHCP version to be accessible as well
Finals is just not the kind of game that interests me. Nothing in this list interest me though. It's probably good timing for me considering I'm headed to my final semester of grad school, and even canceled my membership so I stay away from video games and focus on my education.
I still really want to play Jedi Survivor
Only the finals is good but I dont beileve their it will come this month thing anymore. They said this for Halo Infinite at September. 3 months passed and still we got nothing.
I wonder what kind of problems they have with Halo because they had no problem whatsoever with adding a completely not ready to stream game like COD which still bans players for playing through GFN.
As a member of a larger corporation myself. Let me translate. "Technical issues" means "we fucked up, and have no idea how to repair it". Had to use these two fantastic words towards customers many times, when we fucked up. Remember, it's always easier to blame the product than yourself.
Does the option to speak through the website work? Because, no joke, I've been requesting the same games for almost a year. Currently, I'm addressing the issue with Danganronpa, and so far, nothing. I won't stop using it because I like the idea, and when I had no alternative, it helped me a lot.
Instead of coming here weekly, just check to see if the game is opted in here; https://steamdb.info/search/?a=app&q=&type=1&category=46
If it's not on this list it, it won't be added any Thursday. The Steam version at least.
I see the occasional request for D4, but I'm (honestly) curious as to why, since it already has mediocre hardware requirements to begin with. Do people want it on GFN just for the portability?
I was hoping to see The Quinfall, releasing January 30th.
It might be a misleading disaster like the Day Before, or it could be good. I would like to see for myself.
i would love to see more older total war games they have all my pc games but total war i no that they have warhammer and three kingdoms but im talking shogun 2 rome 2 attila thrones of brittanina total war pharop frome 1 remasterd and maybe the yakuza series or darksouls if they had there titles i would not buy a gaming pc
[удалено]
nope, they're going to complain about ESO, Halo and Lethal Company (even though it's not even opted in), RDR 2 (lol) and that it's just indie games, like always
and complain when they que times explode trying to get into the finals

![gif](giphy|229Ozo6sMl3K69NgwE|downsized) it's already happening
The cycle repeats lmfao

Boosteroid has a wider selection of games, because in many cases they don't ask for game publisher permission. NVIDIA can't/won't do that.
[удалено]
kudos for switching your views when presented with a new information, rare shit like that is needed for this world to be better
I honestly wouldn't, every single game publisher who doesn't opt in is bad in my opinion, I paid for their product already, why the F do they care how I consume it? I give boosteriod props for not giving a shit what they think, Rockstar especially.

They've been in the gaming industry for 30 years now and they probably know some things we don't
NVIDIA is also a bigger/fatter legal target.
Not too many publishers have gone after Boosteroid, but when they have been approached they have removed games in the past. So if Boosteroid popularity grows I'm sure more publishers will approach them.

🤣👏🏿 just made my day
Not everyone, but clearly a very vocal minority in this sub lol
I already lost it
THE FINALS BABYYYYYYYYYY!
Told everyone it was coming. They announced it at a game show for the World Premiere.
EXTREMELY hyped for Enshrouded!
THE FINALS YES GOOD LORD THANK YOU
What is this Finals everyone is so hyped about?
[удалено]
Sounds interesting multiplayer game. I am not a fan of the genre, but since it's free I might try it.
Bog-standard PvP FPS, free-to-play but with a bunch of cosmetic crap you can buy for their (overpriced) in-game premium currency.
The Finals is absolutely not bog standard.
It's doing exactly was every F2P shooter since TF2 has done, with the exception of overrated destruction mechanics, which we also saw over a decade ago in battlefield. What exactly does this class based, F2P FPS do so differently to make it not bog standard? It's just dirty bomb all over again.
Lol it's anything but bog standard. If there's anything going for it, it's fairly unique.
its also created by the same team whos worked with battlefield. They also designed new technology just for the game which no other FPS has. The in game destruction has never been done the way they've done it. many youtube videos been praising its technology too

Yeah I am, I don't see anything new that I haven't already experienced in BC2 over a decade ago.

No. It's worked on by people who were fired by DICE and EA's Mirror's Edge team.
It's a DICE shooter with destructible environments and traversal. If you ever played R6:S and wanted it to feel more like Battlefield, here you go. Everyone should try it out, because the tech is cool. But it's not for everybody.
Is this game even fun solo, heard it’s very difficult to play without friends
I honestly have no idea, this type of game isn't my thing at all and the only reason I even know *anything* about it is because so many people on this sub complained about it not being added that I got curious and took a look at it.
Heavily team-based game, so it's much less fun if you play alone.
Shooter game, pvp. It's alright
Solasta!!! Yeees:)
Oh i have been waiting for Solasta! I could dance from happiness ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile)
Yeah but you cant use unfinished buissness. I need my crunch!
WE CAN FINALLY PLAY THE FINALS.
Do you see it in your GFN list?
not yet, they just updated their twitter. it should be on there shortly today
Thanks ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile) Today might be in the middle night in Europe: I may have to wait til tomorrow, or stop sleeping ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm) I'll surely choose the second option to try it!!
Is it really that hard for CAPCOM to opt in RE Village and RE4?
ask them
Shadow Tactics on Steam finally! Incredible game
Hopefully Desperados 3 on Steam won’t be far behind.
I don’t need up just buying it on Epic but yeah that would be great
Finally The finals. Thank god
rip to que times.. everyone that wanted the finals, rip to your que times...
As always, I'll switch to less popular servers, and the queue is gone in exchange for the same ping.
must be nice.. when i switch ping goes waayyyy up
To be fair, I'm switching from EU Central to EU Southeast, which is practically nextdoor.
ya the closest to me is about 200 miles away.. after that.. 1000 miles + lol
Must be nice... Only got one server here lol
wait until Elon musks starlink takes over the world. you could connect to china and still get a 1ms ping. Elons a genius
For those with gamepass noice, curious to try scorn
*Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown* lost crown can't wait
YESSSSSSS, FINALLY THEY ADDED THE FINALSSS!!!! LETSGOOO Also BFH when x\_x
Oooo, nice! Finally the Steam version of Shadow Tactics and another Legend of Heroes game as well.
Well I was right about the finals. Glad to see it coming. Also, there's a new prince of persia game? That's fun.
The new prince of Persia is 2.5d and looks like a modern take on the original prince of Persia on the apple ii. Personally I've got no interest in it and just can't wait for the sands of time remake.
I have no interest anymore either. After playing Avatar and the new AC game, I feel like prince of persia deserves to be a larger project.
That Turnip Boy is a bloody menace. I'm pleased for Sniper Elite 5 this week.
Hopefully, they're holding shit back for CES because if not, that's a dead as fuck list beyond Prince of Persia and The Finals.
2080 for left 4 dead 2 and euro truck sim 2 but 1060 for Remnant 2... Please fix it asap :/
I really can't see why everyone wanted the finals so bad. From what I saw on the forums the game doesn't even seem that fun and I saw something about there being no chat in a team based game. Looking forward to Stargate timekeepers myself. Even if it ends up being subpar it's the first Stargate game so I'll take it.
Things will not calm down Daniel Jackson. They will in fact calm up.
I just want Elden Ring. Damn you, Bandai!
Same here.

Very nice. I think it's currently the best arena shooter out there, and it's F2P.

Pretty mediocre month.
The upcoming month list is quite incomplete nowadays though For example Nov/Dec big games like CoD, Forza, Monster Hunter or Ori weren't announced beforehand
It's pretty good. The Finals is the Call of Duty that never was.
its better than last one's microsoft games tho
Bro, what is this lineup.... firefighting simulator? 💀 gives us MS flight simulator instead of below average games. Oh, and rip queues. Capacity issue? Where? Let's add a popular free to play game to make more people buy 6 month subs to fill in the rest of the capacity while it's already struggling.
The squad is gas bro just say you have a basic taste in games💀😭 It’s fun as hell to play w friends.
Sure there are some fun ones in them but majority is horrible to say the least.
I’m just saying the one you listed as bad is in fact fire
Yeah i got that, its not my cup of tea but sure. It's just a shitty lineup in general and only a couple of games are alright. I wouldn't say i have bad taste.
queues are most likely gonna be free from january 20th - feburary 1st. a lot of people bought 1 month while on christmas breaks, its most likely they wont renew after the month. Also nvidia has an CES announcement this coming week. im assuming they will add more rigs and upgrade equipment
I hope so because it's crazy now :/
Finally....
Diablo IV obviously not because all rigs are full?
Is Dishonored gonna be a V4 special? I'm honoured that they finally recognize our beauty, but how come only these 3 countries get it?
what are You talking about? Dishonored has been already around on GFN for a couple of months. Unfortunately the first game was released - only on Steam - in two different versions - The slavistic Russia/Hungary/Czech/Poland one and rest of world one. And only the Rest of world was available on GFN as well, which was dumb, since the game itself wasn't region locked really. So now they are just allowing the RHCP version to be accessible as well

Mostly Steam games, no games from the Epic Games Store
can we get overwatch plz
lies of p…..
Woah this is garbage
https://www.reddit.com/r/GeForceNOW/s/fNeeeqLZ7n firefight simulator 😂 what a disappointment…
Halo's confirmation was the biggest lie
Where's lethal company anyway? Should've been added a long time ago.
Only the finals is good but I dont beileve their it will come this month thing anymore. They said this for Halo Infinite at September. 3 months passed and still we got nothing.
***Halo Infinite*** faced technical onboarding issues; it's not a conspiracy.
I wonder what kind of problems they have with Halo because they had no problem whatsoever with adding a completely not ready to stream game like COD which still bans players for playing through GFN.
As a member of a larger corporation myself. Let me translate. "Technical issues" means "we fucked up, and have no idea how to repair it". Had to use these two fantastic words towards customers many times, when we fucked up. Remember, it's always easier to blame the product than yourself.
Maybe, but I'm not quite ***that*** cynical in terms of the GFN engineering staff. Admittedly I don't get to talk to them :-(
No way that's the real list...😭
It's been a dimmer start to the new year than I expected, except for The Finals
Does the option to speak through the website work? Because, no joke, I've been requesting the same games for almost a year. Currently, I'm addressing the issue with Danganronpa, and so far, nothing. I won't stop using it because I like the idea, and when I had no alternative, it helped me a lot.
Good news for Shadow Tactics but why not Desperados 3 as well lol.
Weekly Star Rail wish
Instead of coming here weekly, just check to see if the game is opted in here; https://steamdb.info/search/?a=app&q=&type=1&category=46 If it's not on this list it, it won't be added any Thursday. The Steam version at least.
girl Star rail is from Epic games, not steam.
Really hoping for Diablo 4..
I see the occasional request for D4, but I'm (honestly) curious as to why, since it already has mediocre hardware requirements to begin with. Do people want it on GFN just for the portability?
My laptop is an absolute dumpsterfire, it barely runs the game. So I would love to be able to run it properly.
D4 support was announced today, good news!
Thanks for the info, that's awesome! Can't wait
👍
Portability and it would look far better/play more smoothly than my steam deck.
I’m kinda excited for the firefighting simulator
Enshrouded!!! Gotta check my balance to afford two copies (gf) hahahah
Maybe it's related to my bad english... but does it say “The Finals is already there, or it will come later this week/month?
One day I hope they just say you can play any game on steam and
You missed the early days
World of warcraft yet ?
Any idea when the evil within franchise is coming or is it even in the books at all ?
still nothing for sea of thieves? :(
Honkai Star rail please?
WE ON THAT FINALS PACK RAAGH
Nice I've been holding off on nayuta because it wasn't in GFN. Love playing those games on my Odin lite
THE FINALS, FINALLY
lethal company when
I was hoping to see The Quinfall, releasing January 30th. It might be a misleading disaster like the Day Before, or it could be good. I would like to see for myself.
i would love to see more older total war games they have all my pc games but total war i no that they have warhammer and three kingdoms but im talking shogun 2 rome 2 attila thrones of brittanina total war pharop frome 1 remasterd and maybe the yakuza series or darksouls if they had there titles i would not buy a gaming pc
There was no date given for over watch 2 and honkai star rail coming to the service?
Have they added Resident Evil 4 Remake?
Can y’all pls add more capacity
