cloudgaming

Three months after first teasing it, Yes 5G and NVIDIA have finally brought the latter’s GeForce NOW cloud gaming service to Malaysia. Cloud gaming basically lets you stream the game you’re playing in real time by accessing a virtual computer, allowing you to play almost any game, anywhere on any device.

However, not everyone will be able to sign up for it at the moment. The Yes 5G Gaming beta only applies to Yes customers for now, and those of you without a Yes number will be prompted to sign up for one of Yes’ telco plans instead.

If you are on a Yes plan though, then you can just sign up for a Yes 5G Gaming account. During the beta, you’ll be able to access NVIDIA GeForce NOW for free and play any of the games available in the platform’s library. There’s a 6 hour limit on each gaming session though, which is perhaps a good thing if you’re someone who actually plays video games for six hours straight. The games you choose to play will also have RTX On, if it’s an available option.

As mentioned earlier, the Yes 5G Gaming Beta will be available at no cost for Yes customers, with the beta access lasting from now till the 10th of April. That gives you just about three weeks to try out any of the over 1,500 titles in its library, which includes games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Destiny 2, Fortnite, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and more.

Oh, and perhaps the best part of cloud gaming is that you don’t need a gaming PC or a console either—GeForce NOW will work on almost any device, from a Windows PC or MacOS system to your smartphone and even certain smart TVs. What you do need though is a fast internet connection with low latency; GeForce NOW requires at least 15Mbps for 720p at 60FPS gaming, 25Mbps for 1080p at 60FPS gaming and 35Mbps for up to 4K gaming at 120FPS.

Once you’ve signed up for a Yes 5G Gaming account successfully (you can do so here), you’ll then need to download and use the GeForce NOW app for your platform. You can then log into your account on the GeForce NOW app, link it to your own Steam, Epic Game Store or GOG account and start playing all the games you want—at least, till 10 April.

only for Yes users for now

time for my upgrade.. doom ok .. roblox cannot .. oofff

No

35Mbps for up to 4K gaming at 120FPS

seems legit.

i am happy with xbox remote play.

sweet, i just happen to hav a spare YES number for 5G testing.

i wonder how much the geforce now subscription is after beta ends.

DLSS + compression letew.

Sorry, moonlight + sunshine is free.

They are forcing you to pay for a feature they removed recently, nvidia gamestream.

They never mention if that only works on Yes 5g connection. And if Yes is required, whether the data is free or will be charged as usual. If data not free, then cheaper to run your own rig in the long run, and more responsive too.

based

Pls share your setup

This can fight game pass?

I just need game pass to work on the deck like yesterday

tried to register but it ask for credit card lmao
after put in cc information then the website infinite loading
I think I kena scammed already lulz

for moonlight + sunshine? I helped a friend of mine setup so he can play on his steamdeck, I don't really have a use case for me personally yet.

Hmm, moonlight + sunlight is a wonderful technology, but it still needs a setup that utilizes my home's electricity...As a result, this is not a long-term strategy for reducing my electricity bills.

i got the invitation too. but i'm not YES user.

can i cincai get 1 cheapo number n register under YES?

can play ps5?

ew cloudgaming, didnt stadia taught you a lesson?

The old Nvidia Shield 2017 android box already got this Geforce Now since 6 years ago.

At the moment, I have no complaints about GFN; it is a reliable technology with numerous possibilities for connecting with well-known game stores such as GOG, Steam, Ubisoft, and Epic Games. The game library is small, but the bulk of my games are available on GFN. I applied for Yes GFN service interest, but because I am not a Yes user, I will postpone my enrollment with Yes until it is available to non-Yes users. For the time being, I will depend on Starhub GFN service.

It was previously restricted to Nvidia devices; however, it is now accessible on a wide range of non-Nvidia platforms.

weapons hot vaqueros

actually works well lol been trying for the past month using gfn singapore

I'll sign up for No

stadia died before reaching Malaysia kek

anybody tried yet with yes?
any local review?

Gonna use up the data quota extremely fast

Isnt Could gaming utilizing their hardware resources? So we dont need our own hardware to run the game. I tried something like dat with LDcloud

yes, you're using their server to play games

Subscribed since 14 March, didn't notice any lag or delay. I played on my android phone connected with ps4 controller. Experience is quite good.

1 hour of game play used around 2gb of data, not sure what's the resolution cause it adjust automatically.

But can it run Crysis?

I used to subscribe to Starhub's GeForce Now servers before they switch to the crazier pricing model.

You don't really need mobile internet - any internet, even Fibre will work. You can even run it on browsers!

i find browsers laggy than the app

It is expected - there will be slight latency and sometimes you have to play at places you are not allowed to install stuff

Crony YTL, fuck off please

How much subscription fee after the beta test?

havent announced yet

No

Any more reviews to share? For non-Yes subscription it's RM50 per month. Beats spending thousands for a good gaming PC?

If follow global pricing RM24/25 per month

I tried starhub geforce b4, really not bad and very convenient. I have played cyberpunk dota and overall quite impressed with the latency and ping. Just need a very strong internet connection.

wanted to try yes geforce but after looking at the pricing,

When playing Battlefield 2042 on Yes5G network, I can't play smoothly and damn laggy. On Starhub network, very smooth. You guy should try starhub.

are they putting the servers in Malaysia or singapore?
If Singapore the latency will be worst.

Any cloud gaming experience will always include latency. Malaysian and Singaporean latency may be subjective. However, the general rule is that the closer the server, the lower the latency.

But, I don't find it a big issue while playing GFN via the Singapore Gamehub+ server so far maybe because I have enough bandwidth (800 Mbps connection) to play cloud gaming within my home mesh network to support more than 40 devices at one time. But, I currently don't play any games that are latency-sensitive yet; mostly single-player games and puzzle adventure games.

GeForce Now now supports Xbox Game Pass, Ubisoft+, and EA Play:

In June 2023, Nvidia announced that Xbox Game Pass for PC will be available on GeForce Now in the "months ahead."

In March 2023, Nvidia announced that Ubisoft+ will be available on GeForce Now in the "coming weeks."

In January 2023, it was announced that EA Play will be available on GeForce Now in the "coming months."

These partnerships will allow GeForce Now users to stream a selection of games from these platforms to their devices.

As the cloud gaming market continues to expand, we can expect to see more exciting partnerships and game announcements in the future.

As a result, we no longer require powerful machines to enjoy cloud gaming on GFN, just a good Internet connection and a nearer GFN server whenever available like Yes5G GFN (Malaysia) and Starhub Gamehub+ GFN (Singapore)

Geforce now works on any laptop?

I wonder my Old lenovo x1 carbon (7th gen) can support it ?

The internet connection i have is 800mbps unifi

Yes, as long you have first gen i processor can support.

Just try out for a month

I was surprised my laptop can play the games at 60fps lol. But the settings are really a letdown

Resolution stuck at 1080p and the graphics look a bit awkward

Were you subscribed directly to GFN or through an alliance partner? Direct subscribers get the highest tier with custom game settings up to 4K @ 120 fps. Alliance partners in the SEA region offer up to GTX 1060 and RTX 2080 with no custom game settings. In either way, resolution and refresh rate depend on the GFN client used.

I still don't like the idea of cloud / digital.
Hated it when games started to go digital only, still hate them now. And now this cloud gaming thingy, I prefer to have my own GPU. This is just like renting, and I hate the idea of renting.

But can it run Crysis?

For me depends on your pov. Of course it’s a no brainer to own a gpu but for example if ur pc got any problem or during travel where you need to kill some time, cloud gaming is kinda great. It’s good to have options

kenot play at my kampung no 5g, i pass

I sign up through yes alliance. It kept directing me to it

The official NVIDIA website, geforcenow.com, automatically selects the available providers based on your country of residence. However, you have the option to switch to a different provider by accessing the GFN app > hamburger icon (top-left corner) > Settings > Geforce Now Provider > Switch Provider option, but only if you haven't logged in or registered. This is the only way to change your provider.

This is using a supported web browser to access the GFN settings from the play.geforcenow.com website:

Click the "Switch Provider" button


Click the "Show providers for other regions" link


Choose the provider you want to register with or have registered to (certain provider's web access may require you to use a VPN)

But if u choose for example us, won’t u be playing on us server? And the ping and delays will be high?

You have to use a VPN to access official GFN servers in the US, Canada, and EU countries. But, VPN will introduce latency.

You could use VPN to connect to Japan / Taiwan server if want to try GFN for free. Taiwan server have <100 ping so its fine if not playing competitive games.

build your own cloud computer using software like Parsec

Recently just subscribe GFN 1 month to play monster hunter wilds on steam deck / Ally X

though the rig in Malaysia still kinda outdated, but it still smoother than Ally X a lot a lot.
CPU : Intel CC150
GPU : Nvidia 2080

The issue with malaysia gfn is price, without yes phone no one month rm50 very mahal.. u got yes phone no?

Yea, last time just bought one Yes Prepaid card RM10 (before GFN release) and maintain till now (reload before number termination) cause wanna try the 5G.

But RM30 is exclude SST 8% :\

So total dmg / month = RM32.40 actually.

cukur boleh game on my m4 mac mini

Too bad doesnt have 4080 rig

Also cannot go 4k :\

Looks so blur on my TV with 1440p

Last time before gfn masuk MY, I subscribed SG gfn for a few times for testing and the screen quality much better with 3080 rig. Price is much cheaper too, I rmb around rm2+ to 3+. Sad now no longer can access SG gfn, the website keep redirect you back to MY.

What game u play on m4? Need transition layer?

dota underlord , ayam retired old gamer. native game

You mean using VPN to access SG server?

Somehow i'm quite satisfied now using the 2080 rig since i mainly use for handheld console

But last evening not sure is unifi pasal or what, keep getting bad connection "your connection is spotty" which later night time resume normal again.
Good thing is MY now doesn't have the 100hour / month limitation.

monster hunter wilds alr available on GFN Malaysia?

wtf underlord. that game still alive?

Yes, last Thursday add in

Immediately give up playing natively on my Ally X

Last time no need vpn, can directly subscribe to SG and use their rig and server. Now not sure anymore, no longer use gfn.

Evening and night unifi like that one, will keep buffer. Maybe not enough bandwidth.

GFN only accept dc/cc payment option?

Currently using Artemis / Apollo on my Retroid pocket 5 to play monster hunter wilds. That’s local streaming, but network lag is below 10ms.

But when I’m outside, GeForce now might be tempting…

But during weekend i play like no issue, only yesterday evening 6pm~7pm keep spotty.

And gift card which i not sure where to purchase
No e-wallet options so far.

My home PC spec not so really power and dunno why steam link to my steam deck only gets black screen with sound.

Home PC spec
11400F
3060Ti 8GB Vram

Plus the stutter caused by this capcom is real pain somehow :\
Even yesterday patch also no fix those stutter or polygon.

How i wish YTL can upgrade their server rig to 30 or 40 series at least

Steam link isn’t working for me too.
I’m using a 4070 super and I get a black screen too.
It’s not your pc, it’s the game compatibility with steamlink.

Apollo is the recent fork for Sunshine which was mentioned in this thread years ago. It works well.

i hari2 play ok , dont like this. ayam old pipu

MHW probably after this month the hype also will down soon and will unsub GFN until next time.
This series kinda easy compare to World.

Right now i dy done with the story campaign and literally just farm equipment and build
Maybe getting old dy, dun have the free time like 2018
My monster hunter world time play capped like 400 hours before i stop.

But thanks to MHWilds, i know that GFN actually kinda good too after testing (Sad they no provide trial period)

still got update or change to the meta? how's the playerbase? i think dotachess more player?

no change / dono player base but still easy to get matchmaking / dono dotachess more or less player

Habis one month GFN and platinum (100% achievement) my monster hunter wilds

Cancel for now and probably wait next game

Just use moonlight and sunshine program la.

Own pc not strong :\

It doesn't impact your PC performance as much as you think lor..
