Xbox One Controller ?

Yeah never thought about that

 

maybe this would be a good feature to add to the xbox one, I mean being able to stream xbox one to PC over home network with no internet connection, but you would lose any online gaming features so they probs wont do it.

 

just a quick update,

I have found, as long as I don't hold/grip the pad to tightly and push/pull the left thumb stick to firmly, it's not to bad ...

I think that's been my problem from the start, so hopefully problem now resolved.

happy dayz.

 

Also maybe look at the Elite controller, it has programable buttons and bottom flippers, it is a bit pricey but if the problems persist and I hope they don't it could be worth it in the long run

 

So sad. Data limits. I will never understand why this is done.

 

On the streaming aspect, here is an idea. Go into your Xbox settings and choose 'Go offline'. You'll obviously have to choose a game that you can play offline to test it, but after you do that, see if the device you want to stream to can find your Xbox and
connect to it and play.

If you can do this, there should be no issue with data usage at all. Although, TBH I still don't think you'd be using any more data through streaming than you would through normal gaming on the console. The streaming should be happening on your network,
not through the internet connection. The only reason you'd 'need' to be connected to XBL in order to stream would be if it were a game that required internet.

If you can stream with your Xbox in offline mode, then it should work the same as it does if you're on the console. You just wouldn't be able to get your achievements and whatnot until you go online again. Anyways, just a thought.

 

have to be logged in my microsoft account on my pc you use the steaming app in windows 10.

either way it seems you have to have an internet connection for it to work.

 

also if the console is in off line mode and pc is online the windows 10 streaming app cant detect/find the console

 

Soak your hands is warm salt water. Use Epson salt !d

 

Yeah, I kind of suspected that your PC not being able to see the console would be the case if you used offline mode. It just doesn't make sense that it would need to stream your game to XBL and then back to your PC, so I really don't think that's happening.
Unless someone can explain why it would be necessary... it just seems unnecessarily redundant.

 

tell ya what I do just to find out once and for all.

I will check how much data I have left then stream a game in one player mode for a little while then go back and check if its used any of my online data allowance.

BRB.

ok I have 3399MB left I report back in a bit, just take everything else off line first.

 

I would still expect it to use some (very minimal) amount of data since it is required to be 'connected' just to play over XBL. Probably for things like tracking achievement progress and such. However, I would think it would use a lot more data if it were
actually streaming the game outside of your LAN. Will be interesting to see.

 

well +1 to all you who said it shouldn't use my limited internet data allowance

just checked it again and still at 3399MB phew .. it guess it using just the wifi bandwidth cool ...

I'm sure when I first tested it used my data although probs windows may have been updating ..

chuft

 

Nice least you can use a 360 pad till your hands better if you need to

 

yea deadfall suggested a good idea, it deffo helps even just resting hand in hot water.

its 100% better now, like I have said it was down to me gripping the controller and pushing pulling the thumb stick while in intense gaming lol

but if a game can do that to my hand then I must be enjoying it some what more than my hands lol

I just have to keep hands relaxed not tensed up in the mists of battle.
