u can play the games, but still got noticeble lags.
since all the servers is in US. latency around 100-300ms
im playing on unifi 50mbps.
*
Have u tried FortNite or PubG? Playable or just too laggy to even get a jiken dinner haha

But shield players will be at disadvantage tho given that you'll be fighting against PC players with keyboard and mouse. Still good for casual gaming.

Can't wait for my unit to arrive next week

Nice, mine still not yet shipped.

That's i hate about Amazon, after all that handling fees, import tax, prime account, they'll come up with confusing statement like 2 days shipping when you thought it will be delivered in 2 days but no instead they need 10 days even that for US address. I understand USA is big but still.

i wonder how long it will take for international shipment.
*
I chose expedited shipping since the difference is only like 2usd. Replaced my order at 1130pm last night after realizing the payment sangkut. I had to call Maybank for them to unblock then only payment passed. Woke up this morning with the tracking update from DHL.

Tried. Ping is very high 223ms for me.
There are 5 servers in EU as well. I got connected to EU Central which I suppose is the nearest to Malaysia. Still ping is too high.
I hope they add a SG server to serve Asia Pacific.

U connect to Ethernet or wifi? If wifi, is it N or AC?

Aiyo that's pretty bad. Don't think there's any way to improve unless they add in Asia server. Even VPN won't help right?

What games that are playable to u with that level of latency?

Did you get your unit already? How long it took to clear customs? Mine last update is initiated customs clearance on Sunday sweat.gif hoping it'll get through without me having to apply sirim
*
Today cleared kastam at 4am and now shipping status according to tracking email. Should arrive today.

Mine initially supposed to get SIRIM but then DHL officer (her name was mimi) said she will help to appeal first then only let me know if still tak lepas. End up now good already. She said media streaming box usually no need but kastam acting kiasu at times.

As far as I  know we have to cover, or maybe can claim back from them.

My unit still stuck at kastam with no new updates  sweat.gif  3 days already. Hopefully it gets through soon.
*
Have u called DHL customer service? They will give u the contact no of the person handling your case. You apply for appeal if they say need permit. Hopefully all good

For tax usually Amazon will request upfront one. For my case it say didn't have any tax. SIRIM is a diff case tho. We need to pay on top and provide them with slip or receive for DHL to do clearance

Tested out FortNite yesterday. Getting 240ms and recommended setting is 720p due to the delay compensation. Gg Wei haha. Playable game but 720p burns my eyes and occasional graphical defects due to poor streaming from US server.

Read that there's a Asian Pasific server before but it was removed in March to be relocated elsewhere. Need to wait for it to be available again before we could enjoy it.

Overall, it was pretty fun yesterday playing FortNite for the first time. I'm used to PubG but playing a shooter using a controller is really new. Can't wait for the Asian Pasific server to come. Guess when that happens it should be playable smooth at 1080p. For casual gaming, Shield is really a beast.

Thanks for the update. I have previously tried gamestream from PC and not all games work well with a controller but some are totally playable especially RPG type games. Really liked this GFN concept because you can play any game you own on Steam, Origin, etc without having the PC running but unfortunately the absence of an AP server ruined it.

I am not too confident the AP server will be up anytime soon since its been > 3 months offline. They probably moved it to Europe or US since the servers there increased while AP was shut down. I suppose there are too few of us in this region to make it worthwhile for them.
*
Yeah. Even FortNite shows partial support for controller. Have u tried hooking up keyboard and mouse?

Hopefully when they launch out of beta, the price for GFN won't be skyhigh. And need AP server as well. Saw a lot of complaints on their forums bout it.

Amazon usually far more expensive to ship direct if they charge tax. Else, should be cheaper than 3rd party. For bulking, 3rd party better overall

How's the device man?

I'm damn happy to play hearthstone with superb performance lol. It is as smooth as on my phone. Back then using tvbox on amlogic s912 chipset. Game goes laggy when there's more than 3 minions on board. Now I can handle up to 14 minions and still speedy.

Now feel itchy to get another one for living room TV

Do you mean, we can't play GeforceNOW games at all?
I planned to buy a game controller.
Thanks

Can but the latency is around 200+ Ms as server is either US or EU so usually GeForce game streaming will drop to 720p 30fps to sustain playability.

This will be good when they add in Asia Pacific server. Used to have but they relocated. Till now still no new Asia Pacific server yet. Once available we can expect latency if between 30-100 max maybe
