Q&A
Wow! It’s WoW
Playing on iPad with a keyboard! This is nuts!
Does your keyboard emulate a controller? I can’t play world of warships on an iPad because it requires keyboard and mouse and that’s not supported on iOS.
It works like a normal keyboard. I have an older magic keyboard for iPad so I have no escape key otherwise everything worked like normal, it was great.
Sure it’s supported. I use a powered usb hub for making music on my iPad. I plug in a usb wireless mouse, a keyboard, midi controllers, even extra monitors.
WebKit doesn’t allow it. I can’t play world of warships because of the WebKit limitation
I sold the iPad and bought a MacBook Air for this exact reason
Does it come with any addons?
this is exactly what I said logging into the client today. Guess I’m not original lmao

Tell me more about life before YouTube, Grandpa.

Also downloading executables was often the same as playing russian roulette except the odds were worse
You had to be really careful to disable all the bundleware with the RealPlayer updates, otherwise you'd have a purple gorilla singing and telling jokes on your desktop, which was the style at the time.
please don't remind me of Bonzai Buddy. That thing was a purple nightmare!!
There used be these round silvery things called CDs...which we used to buy (or sometimes borrow from friends) to install games in our desktops...later we found out a new type of silvery thing has come out called DVDs...which stored bigger AAA games...sometimes you need more than one of these to install a single game.
I saw a phone booth for the first time in years at a random gas station. I don't know why I decided to touch it. But my hand still feels dirty.
LoL, yeah I could see that. This one was outside a closed gas station & I just couldn’t resist a pic.
It looks so…lonely…
Such happy life back then. I remember asking my mom to open our first bank card to pay for subscription, it was an adventure for both of us lol :D
Resident Evil Village nice
It should have come much earlier but I accept that too
Why not 4?
Because that's the one Capcom opted in? Ask them
eventually for sure
I haven’t played WoW in ages, can someone tell me if I were to get GFN again would I be able to play the full WoW or do you need the expansion packs to play?
You only need to buy the latest expansion, all the past ones and wow classic are playable simply by subscribing.
You can play up to level 20 IIRC without a subscription, and up to just before the current expansion with a subscription and no expansion.
But it's been ages since I played last, so that info may be stale...
I think that’s still accurate.
For retail yeah, but you can play classic without the expansions!
How is classic compared to retail? Not sure which one to get for my first experience in these games
Hard question to answer. Im guessing retail is more newb friendly, and classic is mostly for nostalgia. Granted the community might be better in Classic. But the community aspect could be totally different depending on what you are into.
You need them
HUGE W!!
I have never played WoW, so what is the difference between these three WoWs?
It is different expansions. The latest live version or earlier versions of wow
Thank you
Well that's not really right. Let me break it down since I'm bored at work.
There are currently three main versions of wow right now. There's wow retail. There's wow classic. And then there's wow classic but like expanded.
So wow retail is the official official game. It contains all the content from the beginning of time. That's dragon flight and is the most mechanically complicated version of wow. It has the most content and is the biggest overall game to play.
Then there's wow classic and wow classic era. So classic era is only vanilla wow. It is wow as it was when it launched (although that's no entirely true with SoD). But basically it's the original launch version of wow(upgraded visually and technically tho) with some modifications.
And then theres just wow classic which started as just the original launch wow but has now progressed through the various wow expansions. It just launched a new expansion called 'Cataclsym'.
I mostly kind of follow wow from afar and not a daily player but hopefully this helps give some info to the various ways to play. I would say wow classic is a great place to start especially with the launch of cataclysm.
This sounds a bit confusing, but it's propably just me.
Thank you.
WoW Classic is the original WoW. WoW Cataclysm Classic is WoW up to the Cataclysm expansion. WoW Dragonflight is the newest (retail) expansion, therefore the full game (although in my opinion, the worst one).
Thank you
For a new player I highly recommend Dragonflight. There is a massive 3 part story saga beginning this year that will cover the next 6 years ish of wow.
People play WoW for the plot?
Not any more
Legit have no idea what the story is about, me and my mates used to just do the raids and it was good fun until Shadowlands
It's 3 different server points. One is perma WoW before the expansions, One is Wow restarted, currently about to enter Mists of Pandaria, And the last is Retail current version.
What a wonderful day!
Resident Evil Village and Street Fighter...
Lawdhammercy.

Hope to be present soon, with the future entire remake like code veronica, re0 and re5 as well
World of F**king Warcraft!
SF6! Hell yeah can't wait!
Jeuss GFN coming out with some heavy hitters
Hoping that WOW will also be available on the mobile version of GeForce Now and not just PC like Starcraft and Diablo 3 😢
What? It's not on Android version?
Diablo 2 et 4. Not Diablo 3
Right, i was thinking about 4... Sorry.
But Diablo 3 is on Android version.... I don't get it.
Edit : I tought about Diablo 4.
it actually isn't
MY WATCH HAS ENDED!!!!
It'll still be right twice a day.
You deserve rest now
We won guys.
Still no XDefiant? Why don't they at least just acknowledge that the 'available at release' has failed and tell us when it might be coming? But that would be too much effort huh
They MAY be waiting for Ubisoft Forward to make it available but it doesn't make any sense considered that the latest Prince of Persia is available now and it's just an Early Access
Facts, that would be a helluva promo for the game plenty of eyes on it and I bet GFN user base could easily increase their users
Yea, their communication skills are horrible. The minimum would be to say something like "sorry guys, there were some troubles, XDefiant will release in two weeks" or something.
It's not even on xCloud yet...
It’s not an Xbox Game Pass game so wouldn’t come to Xcloud.
Lmfao
more likely it'd drop via Luna since its ubisoft
it is weird seeing how they announced a year ago.
Maybe it turned out they used some anticheat that doesn't like virtual machines like vanguard?
exactly its pissing me off
OMG!
Street fighter 6! Omg and resident evil villagers!
MOMMY OVERLOAD!!!
How is add-on support in WoW?
Will see. Need to be available later the Day
Can't wait!
This is what they said :
At this time, we do not support AddOns (MODS) for this game. We are investigating adding it in a future update.
in other words WoW is DOA
I have played WoW since 2007 and never touched a mod.
Without being rude then you don't raid Heroic (certainly not mythic) or don't do m+ regularly over 5 or 6. Because WoW devs create bosses with the expectation that you at least use WeakAuras
You are playing WoW wrong
Yeah, that's the one thing "everyone" is asking and rightfully so.
WoW without addons is borderline unplayable.
The whole “borderline unplayable” shit needs to stop, especially for classic.
Leveling to max cap is a long experience of gameplay, and while addons definitely help, you definitely don’t need them to play through the game. Raiding and some high level instances in retail, sure, but you’re acting as if for new players there isn’t a mega shit ton of content you can enjoy without actually needing addons.
I levelled to max on Og classic without them Back in the day maxed multiple characters on much king and cata too, never had addons.
wait so can you do all the content in classic without add ons? Like raids and dungeons? Since classic is easier than retail?
You can't use add-ons. Sadly
where is xdefiant
Maybe I will finally play WoW for the first time...
you should try it. it is quite fun and a thing that should be experienced at least for a little while.
You have to pay gor it and then pay 16 dollars a month to play it. So if u already sucrib3d to gforce now u have to pay more
Try it. I stopped playing a while ago but it is most definitively a worthy experience. Good game, fun to play. Lot's of content to see.
same
XDefiant??
No where to be seen 🤷♀️
Still waiting for the master chief collection...
and no XDefiant?
Wow and RE8 is poggers
I’m surprised Xdefiant isn’t on coming this month…
Really hoped Xdefiant was going to be out soon.
XDefiant will come at release, right? ...right?
well shit son, my first upvote in ages
😂
It may sound like a silly question, but will the new Destiny 2 expansion come to the service?
Sure it will but knowing Bungie and Nvidia updates it won't be playable day one until later.
It surely will.
it is happening, I can't believe it is happening, absolutely awesome, we got WOW!!!!!
I’d love to play WoW on my iPad but the web app doesn’t support keyboard and mouse. Really hoping for a native app support…
Lords of the Fallen thru gamepass is a great surprise!
I bet the graphics look insane af. Was waiting for this one.
Says May 30 and it’s May 31st here in Australia. What time is it launching?
So pleased about WoW. Just waiting for my client to update so I can see how it works with (or without) mods.
Just WoW
I don't need every addon but I need 3: Weakaura, Elvui and DBM. If they can somehow just work with the most popular add-on makers and put them in the game I can feel good about playing it on GFN.
Logging into my character without those makes playing still feel impossible. (only cuz I'm used to having it).
Can't wait to play village
Big special drops for the week.
Man, one game I tried again and still is unplayable is Ghostrunner for EGS. It is being this way since I noticed 4 months ago. Bat this point I wonder if it has ever worked.
Would love to see more of the Total Wars, especially Pharoah with the new update coming.
Where is xdefiant? give us some informations pls
Wuthering Waves when?
ask the publisher who owns the game to add it. Nvidia is not authorized to add anything without permission from the publisher.
The game has had many problems, so they must be fully focused on fixing them right now. I hope it will be next week
XDefiant will repeat the Halo story
Probably drop during Ubi event June 10th
I told you, WoW it is.
Xdefiant??
No Xdefiant and Multiversus...
No xdefiant..
WoW will flop hard on GFN without addon support. Just saying but WoW relies heavily on the QoL improvements that addons offer.
To be fair, most mods get incorporated by the developers over time. Literally every mod I had when I started playing in 2007 has now been included in the base game
But I’m talking about Addons that change major things like UI. A full overhaul of the current trash UI. Current WoW UI atrocious which is one reason I’ll never return to retail WoW, it’s trash. Even if you could download addons thru GFN they’d be gone the moment you close the game. It’s just like with Skyrim/Fallout or Ark. All those mods/addons need reinstalling again each time.
How long we have to wait for it to be available in laucher?
it should be up around 7 pm usually, unless they have sone hickups
In what time? CEST?
yup
Idc about wow but its nice to see gfn catalog growing. I hope we get re and sf6 this month, Im waiting since they announced it and its nice to see still wakes the deep in here too.
it has no future against gamepass
Two completely different services that give two completely different products. GeForce Now is basically renting a cloud-based GPU; nothing what Gamepass offers.
And another funny thing is Blizzard games coming faster than other xbox titles. I dont know why but maybe Ubisoft doing all of this. Because Ubisoft holding the cloud gaming rights for Blizzard and Activision.
YEAAAAA BOIIII WOW TIME
I wonder if wow will have controller support
Will addons runs with WoW?
I’m kind of upset lol I just downloaded wow and pre order dragonflight and subbed. But now I guess I can play on max settings on my ally now
u/rolanddoma hey
Man, I'm just dying for the resident evil 4 remake to hop on here!! Ugh.
No for the king 2? At this rate I'm gonna have to steal one of my local library's computers to play it

Your submission has been removed from r/GeForceNOW for violating Rule #1:
Do i need to be subscribed to both wow and gfn?
Obviously
The Evil Within 2 please!!!
Omg it's happening
I played WoW years ago go… dipped out when they introduced that Garrison rubbish (Cataclysm) … I purchased that expansion but no others … can I play by simply re subscribing or do I need to buy the expansion?
You can play with subscription until shadowlands, you can play classic too.
Garrisons were intro’d in Warlords of Draenor, not Cata
for WoW, Could someone try this in GFN now that it's up and tell me if they support addons or come with preloaded set of addons?
Glad to see it. I'll be back in Wow soon enough.
I didn't think i would say that one day but, thanks Microsoft.
Have fun wow players :)
Wish they’d drop the subscription for wow already.
Add Hell Divers 2!!
Ask the aholes at Sony
Lords of the Fallen is still only available via Steam and Epic.
The Xbox store option was just announced today (the announcements are for the week). The onboarding of new games/stores can often take several days. The May 30th date is referring to the release date on the store/GP, not a commitment/onboarding date for GFN.
Ahhh
Wuthering Waves pls
Playing WOW without add ons is whack.
Nice, REVII!!! Also, this time PLEAAAASE put ZZZ on launch week, they took so long with Genshin and Honkai ;-;
Okay, after a big wow for WoW, can we now get Helldivers 2? Please?
Bing bong. Someone who doesn't know. It's Publishers that opt in games. NVidia doesn't opt it games. It's sonny's decision to add it or not. So No we are not getting helldivers unless an agreement between NVidia and Sony is agreed upon like the one with Xbox.
I know… I also know the problem with the anti cheat systems. But please, don’t kill my hope
Yall forgot to mention Red Dead Redemption 2 (Steam) for this next release. I’m sure it’s just a clerical error 😂
I thought yall announced xdefiant was day and date on GFN
I'll still be waiting for Heroes of the Storm to be added! The servers are alive!!!
dead game
Resident evil village letsgo
Played both WoW & Diablo IV on a Chromebook...It works!
Who’s willing to test WoW and see if Blizzard bans your account? Someone’s gotta take one for the team unfortunately.
EDIT:
I tried, not banned yet. But even on Ultimate the performance was ass; 30-40FPS on high (not max) settings with no RT in Valdrakken. Graphics menu showed there was a 4080 or equivalent which should get way more frames than that. My M2 Pro gets around 50FPS with the same settings in the same area, a 4080 should blow that out of the water surely?
Gotta be some kind of driver issue, this is very odd.
Wow is a pretty famously cpu bound game, so the 4080 is great but whatever cpu power it is running on is going to have a bigger impact.
Where mcc
Hey is WoW available to play on mobile devices?
Anyone see Soulmask on the game list yet?
VIllllaagee
is here
At least they are finally adding more Resident evil in there, now if they can only do Jedi Survivor as well as Dead Space and Calisto Protocol
Lords of the Fallen is completely bricked by Easy Anti-Cheat. so this is just a lie.
Star Wars: Jedi Survivor is on Xbox Game Pass - do you think there's possibility of coming to Geforce NOW ??
Wow! My favorite WoW
Hey what’s up and Thank you for the info. ? Any chance Arena Breakout will make it to Geforce now ?
If you were playing wow on Shadowpc make the swap to GFN NOW. It’s soooo much better and smoother!
i just want multiversus tbh
Will resident evil village be out on June? does anyone have the specific date?
Soulmask is patching since yesterday LOL Whats going on?
Wuthering Waves pls
ask the publisher who owns the game to add it. Nvidia is not authorized to add anything without permission from the publisher
Anyone know if it would be possible to use the "ConsolePort Addon" for WoW through GFN?
I highly doubt it.
Addons are basically mods and work the same way.
FINALLY RE VILLAGE! But I hope they wont wait till the last week of the month to bring it in
