    Ok so chromecast works... But has a watermark?
    Also, quality isn't HD... grainy


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,173 ✭✭✭BKWDR


    Ok so chromecast worked on a downloaded game... Nfl network live isn't showing the chromecast button


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,163 ✭✭✭Beefy78


    I can live without the game archive tbh but I hope they get the archive of other NFL shows and films back up. I'll miss those if they're gone.

    Edit - looks like it's all there and maybe more. They just moved it

    The download option for iOS isn't available yet apparently.

    Does the quality change automatically depending on broadband speed? I liked the option of being able to move it down to lower quality when down the country at Christmas so it would run smoother.

    FYI - in the last hour 'NFL GAMEPASS EUROP' has finally charged me. Ended up being €118.79. This is my 3rd year subscribing and I had it set to auto renew through my bank account!

    11. Do I need iOS 10 to download the Game Pass Europe App from the App Store?
    User will need iOS 10 to download the Game Pass Europe App, for those who are not on iOS 10 then you can use our new mobile website.

    Has anybody received an email advising your payment failed?

    I'm on auto-renew, had updated my card details (Revolut) two weeks ago and details were valid. I input my card details again this morning as requested

    Gamepass have also emailed my old email address that was updated to a new email as same two weeks ago, is this an issue with them?

    The payment is showing as pending with my bank now. €114.46 so the final amount will probably be around €116.50 after PTSB take their commission.

    I'm happy enough with that.

    Yeah mine is showing up too at €116.54. Thankful to get it at that rate. seems to have been hugely hit or miss to get it at that price.

    Mine came in at €156.90 (also with PTSB and also auto-renew, though I wasn't aware of it)!?


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    €20 cheaper than last season, I'm happy enough with that.
    Why they got rid of the archive of games though is beyond me.

    The archive games are being reintroduced throughout the season. Prob on a drip feed basis.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,988 ✭✭✭tripperman


    Mine was 159 as they said, not really fussed as I would have paid more since I find it a great service to watch so many different programmes,


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,225 ✭✭✭Chardee MacDennis


    Yes, buying gamepass for the first time regardless

    It seems to be an automated system where it is charging people what they paid last year.

    If you paid €160 or $135, that's what you're getting charged this year.
