Seems that the GeForce now page actually displays but still no word from Rain..... The link on NVidia's website just takes you to rain one....

Has anyone here participated in the beta?
 
I signed up, but no comms 🤷‍♂️
It's incredibly annoying. I signed up on the day of the announcement, and of course rain being rain, nada.

I briefly used the service with a VPN but as you would imagine, wasn't all that pleasant.
 
Think you guys may be a bit early here - Rainy season (at least for Gauteng) is October 16 to March 31 as per weatherspark.com





(I clearly have no clue what you guys are on about)
 
3 peeps on the MyBB thread joined the program.
Looks like beta testing only if you are an active subscriber on 5G/RainOne for now. Those of us on 4G got nothing lol

Why am I not surprised that it's locked behind a paywall? Thank you, Rain, and Shitty, as usual.

Someone said for rain subscriber's it's R1 to join the beta if you get the invite link and R3 If you aren't a subscriber, however we don't have a report of a non-sub getting the link, so for now it seems a select few from the pay wall can test

Yeah that's true.
I don't use the 4G though, my dad does.
I have Openserve Fibre, would have been interesting to see how it performs off network
 
Anyone on the beta here that has regular 5G and could sign up? I got the mail from rain but it wants me get the rainone package when I already have a 5G package 😐

ok, you need to wait 5 minutes for the option to pop up just to select GeForce now only.

Initial impressions.

Started with cuphead

On the iPad Pro with a ps5 edge controller it played fine but felt there was a slight stutter.

Moved to the lg oled connecting via chromecast the ps5 controller was not playing nice but the gameplay was smooth. Connected a Xbox series elite controller and the buttons worked fine but there was input lag.

Decided to try the native app on lg away from chromecast and things are a lot better with the Xbox controller. Played cyberpunk no issues. This can be a game changer for someone without a pc or for someone on the road that wants to game.

From The users over at MyBB

Click the following link


Enter your details and create a new account, choose a location that has 5G coverage.
Go to the sidebar and click "NVIDIA GeForce Now", scroll down then join priority and click "no thanks, just nVidia" so it adds to your cart.

It will prompt for Rain One, but Nvidia Plan should be in the cart

Pay then you're done, not much else to it.

maybe this is session based or cookie based so try it in incognito or a different browser

Edit: Also you don't need a valid ID, just pick passport and enter random letters. Passport number are hard to verify.
