    Is there a gamepass app on the ATV now or are you trying to log on to NFL Now?

    The NFL app got an update and now has GamePass integrated

    now tempted with the follow your team (100 USD) option, Vikings never seem to feature on the LatAm Fox and ESPN coverage so I think I'm going to take the plunge and order it.

    That's probably the American Gamepass which is different to the International version.

    Suspected it being US only might be the problem. Would've loved to run it natively on ATV. Oh well, back to AirPlay it is I guess

    I'm just playing around with it and clicked on NFL Now and it seems to be allowing me to watch and I didn't log in or anything Maybe it's on a timer and will lock me out in a few minutes but we'll see.

    My ATV is set to US settings if that has anything to do with it.

    I still have access to NFL Now on the ATv with no login or subscription. Any one getting the same?

    Yeah. It still works for me too.

    On the GamePass thing; people on Twitter have emailed them and they said they are aware of the issues affecting international subs and are working on a fix, so it seems it will work eventually and it isn't just for the US version.

    When did discount codes come out in previous years and how do you get them? Also, how much of discount is it?

    Was out mid August last year with 15% off.

    Was considering signing up for Gamepass.

    What are the streams like? I know it depends on your internet connection. I have a steady 25Mbps.

    Is it HD quality?

    I've no qualms about the quality. It's excellent on both my 27" desktop and my 48" HDTV.

    Why don't you sign up for the free 7 day trial and watch an on-demand game or one of the live preseason games tomorrow so you can judge it for yourself

    If you have a good connection the quality is excellent, wouldn't worry about it at all.

    Has anyone else noticed on the app that TA hasn't been updated since August 20th ? Bit of a disaster that.

    Anyone use gamepass through the Xbox 360 app? Gamepass feature was on it around May but can't find it on the NFL app now, anyone have any similar problem?

    Anyone got any discount codes for the international version or is the VPN to Brazil the best option ?

    I don't think a discount will beat the VPN and paying in Brazilian yokes. I finally signed up last night from 'Portugal' and the season subscription which should be €144 ended up costing me around €95. I don't think any discount will give up nearly a third off.

    I thought using a foreign VPN is illegal?

    Not illegal but probably against the t&c's of the service. It is with Netflix anyway, don't know about Gamepass. Netflix don't enforce, the NFL probably couldn't be arsed either.

    You did well. I tried a Portuguese server this morning and I was getting quoted €119 for the regular season pack.

    Were you paying in euros? Switch to Brazilians and it shoots down to the mid 90s.

    Just a question about this
    Do you have to launch the app from "Portugal" to view games once you have signed up using that method or will launching it from "Ireland" work fine,

    You can just launch it as normal. Doesn't need a VPN
