It's been 10 years since Nuts & Bolts... 10 years since we entered the Dark Age of Motion-Controlled Sports... but now...

THE KING... HAS RETURNED!

Signed up for game pass today.

Can't wait.

I just fear we will be content starved for the first few months of release.

They add about 10 games to the service every month so there should be something new to play each month even if you ignore the 150 odd games that are already in Game Pass. We should be fine!

For launch, which:

Grog? Dark and Stormy?
Grog. What I do...

Take a small whiskey/rocks glass and pour about 2-3oz of a decent (sipping quality) rum. Add some brown simple syrup (brown sugar dissolved over heat into water) to taste and squeeze 1/4 of a lime into it (toss it in after) stir and enjoy neat (preferably) or with a cube or two of ice.

Hang on...

So unlike a purchase, which unlocks at the time the game becomes available in the time zone you bought it, if you have Game Pass you can switch regions and play it earlier?

Theoretically, yes. That's how it worked before.

Btw. I'm ready:

it's possible but you literally have to sail a boat by yourself, carry everything yourself, fight against superior numbers at all times, etc...
it is a LOT harder and different to playing with friends.
here's forcegaming playing solo

the game has matchmaking before you load in so you can find a duo partner or a full crew for a galleon.
as far as I am aware, while you can meet other people and technically not immediately get killed by them, you can't actually join a crew you meet inside the game.
i'd be happy to be proven wrong though cause I feel that should really be possible.

You can't join their crew. You are able to send in-game friend requests so you can crew up later.

When you boot the game, you select your ship type, and playercount, your crew so to speak. From there the options are solo, matchmaking or friends.

So you can always play with someone if you want, or you can go solo. But the server will always have other players, in other crews.

I've never made simple syrup. Guess there's no time like the present?

Wouldn't the "new account" thing be confined to being a Microsoft account? Or are CDkeys offering a free month for new accounts? I'm confused by the way you phrased it, coupled with the fact that CDkeys says the codes only work for new accounts.
I was slightly confused. It only works for new game pass customers. I thought it was for new cdkeys customers, but that was wrong. Sorry.
Wait, you can use game pass for pc?

I thought it was for console only?

How does this work on PC? The FAQ says the Game Pass does not work in Windows 10?
I got it working for PC. Game Pass is recently both. However, watch what I wrote above.


Game Pass for PC is pretty crippled though. Besides Sea of Thieves you get a whole 2 other ....barely interesting games, Gears of War 4 and Re:Core.
