>BREAKING: Xbox's new jeet CEO BACKTRACKS on game pass price hike
>NO DAY 1 CAWADOODY

Beginning this year, future Call of Duty titles won’t join Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass at launch. New Call of Dutygames will beadded to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass during the following holiday season (about a year later), whileexisting Call of Duty titles already in the library will continue to be available.

Wow! Gamepass 7 whole dollars cheaper now?! This will definitely make me sign up on their subscription service.

I bet Elder Scrolls 6 won't be day one either. This is the start of them removing their big games from being day one on Game Pass.

22.99 is still too damn expensive. Let me just be able to play games online for $5 a month. Or really should just be free.

I actually like owning my games, physically. And Microsoft hates it.

also the 'new' price is still higher than it was pre price hike months ago AND they are removing day 1 games

>>737374815
My kid loves fortnite so ultimate is worth it to me for him to play that on his console while I work/play games on PC. Ultimate comes with that subscription for fortnite so im also teaching him self control since we dont let him buy the premium currency with money, meaning he has to save up to buy shop skins he actually would use.

Even the masses don't really like COD anymore, they just keep convincing themselves that surely this time the devs must have learnt their lesson

Not resubbing. They can suck my ass.
>>
>>737375169
yeah cod is shit. no one really understood my post because they don’t understand what gamepass is. the most recent revision to gamepass with the price increase is that ultimate gets everything day one. the mid tier gets some things day one (shovelware) 6-12 months after, bottom tier is basically just for online services and only the shittiest gamepass games. there is really no fucking point in lowering the ultimate tier by a few dollars and removing their primary IPs from it because it’s now just a more expensive mid tier. this WILL happen to the Bethesda games I promise you
>>
PC gamepass wins again. Just waiting for one big game to get there, then I'll jump back in at my 13€/month tier and play my whole play-later list.

I find this funny, because Game pass is one of the things that killed Xbox by giving gamers no reason to buy games when they come out. Shes doubling down on the subscription service that got them into their current hole (although there are several other good reasons theyre fucked)
>everybody in the thread complaining there is no COD
fucking lmao
>>
>>737375563
if you’re waiting that long to play them you’re better off just waiting for a steam sale
>>
>>737375614
Yeah Xbox is fucked. They got themselves into a hole and they can't climb out.
>>
>>737375326
They probably will. I hope they will remove Ubi + and Fortnite perks because no one gives a fuck about these and they push price further. 30% decrease is a good step for just removing CoD slop. They gambled like tards expecting people to care about CoD day 1 and people just cancelled GP instead.
>>
>>737374502
>$23/month

This isn't even remotely a deal lmao. Still scam pricing for a shit service. I scammed these faggots with the free trials and $1 deals for 3-4 years straight and I'm never coming back.

Sure, but it's also safe to assume those other games are also garbage like Fable, The Elder Fallouts 7 without script extender support thanks to that godawful Xbox installer, and yet another mediocre attempt at convincing toddlers to drop CoD and play Halo.
>>
>>737374502
>drops from overpriced as shit to overpriced as shit
>>
>>737374502
at that point why not add an "Ultimate+" or "Game Pass w/ CoD" bundle at the originally proposed price hike for people that want it? Because clearly they consider CoD to be worth 7 bucks a month out of the total gamepass cost
>>
>>737375563
This. I'll let a few games pile up and then sub for a month and immediately cancel.

>>737375617
Steam sales have sucked for years and you can't get anything even remotely decent for $13 anymore.
>>
>>737375614
Why people parrot this shit about just Xbox when PS+ with also exists?
>>737375710
You can already get keys for 19$ on key sites its also 17 euro/month. Thats how people stack months and they know it.

that’s true but doesn’t absolve the fact that this is another rug pull

>>
>>737375617
>steam sale
Have you seen dogshit discounts that publishers dont touch for years and regional pricing? Steam sales meme died long time ago. Its better to get keys that actually get cheaper.
>>
>>737374502
Bitch it should be $2/month max to make it worth it. If it's more than that then it makes more sense to pirate.
>>
>>737375614
depends on how you look at it. gamepass was the reason anyone was even still considering xbox. the servers collapsing from the cancellations when they announced the price hikes was proof of that. now that the cost of multiplayer base access has gone up, top released are delayed in mid tier, and all gamepass games are arbitrarily seasonal, there is no reason to use game pass. this is an obfuscation that you are saving money on ultimate tier when they are really just raising the price of the mid tier.
>>
>People will pay $23 a month for no games
>>
>>737374697
>Wow! Gamepass 7 whole dollars cheaper now?! This will definitely make me sign up on their subscription service.
Doritos recently admitted selling their chips at $7 was a mistake so they said they will lower it by a dollar which is still too much. These companies will drip these price reductions hopefully people still don't buy them
>>
>>737375918
What level of ps+ subscription do you have to buy to get brand new games the day they come out?
>>
>>737375943
>those turds belonged to me!
>>
>>737376092
most people just wait for certain game stacks to come into GP and then sub to play through them. i just got premium for 3 months for same price to play space marine 2,kcd 2,cyberpunk and some other games for a price of one of these on key sites. i see no reason paying 20/30$ for one of these on Steam sales when by the time ill want to replay them down the line they will be for peanuts on key sites anyways.
>>
>>737375943
Paid online and subscriptions are already a bigger scam, occasional rug pulls like this one just part of the Live-Service Experience™.
>>
I have been seeing so many retards on social media say things like "I will be cancelling game pass because COD is all I play on it" like there are mouth breathing retards paying $500 a year just to play COD instead of just buying the game at $70

Who the fuck cares?
>>
>>737375614
Genuinely anyone engaging with gamepass on either side is incapable of long term thinking. The second and third order effects if it became dominant would be catastrophic for the market.
>>
>>737376370
thats the best part. there is none and most expensive ps+ tier is now at same price as Ultimate in which you do get day 1 releases lol.
>>
>>737376439
they’ll be cracking down on that. they’ve already started by rotating the big releases by occasionally removing them from gamepass periodically. they’re experimenting with the medium releases right now

No

Gamepass should be $10 a month and you get new games 1 year after release. That's it. Anything more is obscene

this is literally piracy. everyone should pay the full 69.99 for their games and full price DLC too.
>>
>>737376670
you are confused and think I am defending gamepass. I am not. I am criticizing the changes based on their anti-consumer practices.
>>
>>737376586
thats how it always worked the fuck are you talking about. ps+ does the same they add and remove games constantly.
>>
>>737376891
yeah after they had been up for like 2-4 years. now they are only up for maybe 6 months and are out of rotation for a couple years. it’s hard to notice unless you check GP frequently which I do
>>
>>737374502
Fucking based. Pc gamepass is now only 10.99 a month so I'm signing up again
>>
>>737374502
>p-please come back
The numbers must have been abysmal if they are backpedalling like that, anyway good luck getting people to come back, once the goyim becomes aware of the subscription scam you can't make them unware, these services basically rely on the fact that people are too lazy and stupid to comprehend and weight the cost vs benefits of such services, once they take the first step they realize they didn't need this shit in the first place and were being scammed all along.

What about if they removed fortnite from the other tiers except ultimate and dropped those down? Ultimate having fortnite on it has been really good for me since my kid plays it on the console and I'm currently playing that new vampire crawlers game on my PC.
>>
I'll resub to game pass for a month or two when Fable comes out
As is it's still way too expensive to keep active year round, when I had it back in the day I only ever really used it for indie games. All the EA/Ubisoft/Call of Duty shit they added in the last couple of years to justify the price hikes doesn't appeal to me at all

The same rumour guy who leaked this ages ago also said xbox are doing an tier for 1st party only which is cheaper than the current subs, and you'll even be able to get it bundled with Netflix. So if you already have netflix that might be for you. Or just get the cheaper tier for I'm guessing like £8 a month or something since it has zero 3rd party games. The pc gamepass with all the 3rd party stuff is now £10.99 so I can't imagine the first party only one being more expensive or even the same price.

The actual real reason Doritos dropped their piece is because you're no longer allowed to buy them on food stamps which caused their sales to drop drastically overnight
>>
>>737380630
The crew gives you free vbucks and skins and shit which is the entire appeal of fortnite
>>
>>737378991
They also added that fortnite subscription so if you're the kind of person who cares about fortnite and/or ubisoft+ that's not half bad.
>>
>>737374502
>not giving a shit about cawadoody always pays off

feels good to be on the right side.
>>
>>737380932
The crew also has more stuff now since it includes the lego pass and music pass as well as an "OG" battlepass and the modern battlepass. You get a bunch of shit with it that my kid has plenty of skins to use in the game and can save up the v-bucks from the battlepass and the bonus from the crew itself to buy something from the shop. Since he has to save up he's learning impulse control.

How about they get rid of these tiers altogether and offer a single modular subscription where every addition is individually priced so that everyone can subscribe only to what they actually want? I'd imagine cutting out ubislop+, eaplay, fortnite crew nonsense and the xbox streaming shit that nobody uses would cut costs immensely. But I guess that would be too consumer friendly, so they'd rather stick to forcing useless shit onto everyone.
>>
>>737384583
There's a 1st party only tier in the works

You fags didnt understand
CoD was a failure
Diablo 4 crossover with DOOM isn't saving the miseable low numbers all across the platforms
WoW Retoilet + Classic is on a all low below 900k players
All their games are getting patched to work at Steam and Live Store

And the next layoffs are all target towards actiblizz because they were wasting money to pay intern's college debts
>>
>>737386816
Don't forget Starfield and the next Bethesda game potentially being +5 years away
>>
>>737388606
Starfield for Microsoft itself was considered a Internal success besides the shitshow
F76 is now the golden goose thanks to the seasonal system that is getting adapted to ESO.

In the end, Microsoft learned that ActiBlizz was full of lies and trojan horses they now are going to prune or burn.

>>737388606
Starfield already launched on the snoy station, we don't have to pretend it's bad anymore
