Unfortunately it's not until 2021 (no timescale) it's just too late, though this is the kind of thing that would of kept me around if they did it 6 months ago, not sometime next year.

Admittedly, this is better than day 1, but compared to my PC, PS4, and upcoming PS5 lineup, it is still weaksauce, very weaksauce, and by now, it's cold weaksauce!

Why couldn't you make this the good stuff days? 3 blog posts, one for each day, shadow dropped. More people would've been happy with it.

Really interested to see how well ark will run on stadia. The server lag on official servers is often terrible. Either way it will be great to free up 200GB hard drive space!

@ChaosTheory Oh I've said many times that too, it's like trying to get a divorce.

 

Okay Ark is great guys, we expect much more from Stadia ... but here we have an example @StadiaTeam is listen to us

I just hope it doesn't take you 30 years.

Recommendation - @StadiaTeam change these "Play Now" Youtube links so that when posted to social media they provide a preview image. When I post these to Facebook and other platforms to share with friends... there's no image... it just shows a generic Youtube link with no description and looks super sketchy.

Cool stuff coming. Perhaps I'll have to give Ark a try now. Humankind isn't my thing, but a demo i can jump into instantly? I'll have to try that too while it is here.

They brought Ark for you, maybe keep hope.

I wish they gave me Star Citizen after complaining for 11 months, but I really see it as impossible.

 @ChaosTheory

I said probably, 

Also I've been asking for Ark since the first day I was here, I sunk 6000 hours into it, any Ark related news deserves to be commented on, its just a shame I've already put the 6000 hours in now, that's probably enough time on one game for me, so no need to play it on Stadia sometime in 2021.

KKeep the faith, you'll probably get a 2022 release, :face_with_tears_of_joy:

I'm putting a lot of faith in an announcement of FIFA 21 and the Mafia trilogy being tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath though. Nice demos so far though :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Cloud Imperium Games + Stadia...idk

Rando: Stadia's terrible, they don't bring in the games that I want to play, specifically, this one game.

Stadia: Brings in the game you want to play.

Rando: I've already played that game 6000 hours, who cares?

 

... you're not a troll at all.

When are we going to see Madden drop on Stadia? And Family share? Was hoping they would be announced during this 3 day event

@ChaosTheory I'll still play Ark from time to time on my PC, but the idea behind stadia for me was to replace the PC and consoles, if they brought out Ark now I'd play it till I'm sick of it, which I will be in another 6 months time.

It's become glaringly obvious that I'm not going to be able to replace either my PC, or consoles with Stadia (at least not at the moment, and at the speed they're going, it'll probably be when the PS6 comes out that it will be a viable alternative platform. 

The only genuinely good/useful thing stadia seems to be doing, is the demos, that's a good idea, but to me this isn't about money, I don't really care about the money side of it, I worked 12 - 16 hour days 6 to 7 days a week for almost 20 years so I could retire by age 40, so I'm happy to pay for whatever will give me the best choice and gaming experience. That isn't going to be Stadia anytime soon, again I like the idea, the concept of the platform, but it's being run by idiots who may very well kill it off. 

I'm not a troll, but asking for a game means I want it now, not in a years time, when the very high chance is that I will no longer care about it. 

I did say that this was a step in the right direction, just too little too late for me. 

Comprende?

That's all cool and everything, but real talk now, when we can get multiple profiles support for local co-op and multiple saves.

And where the hell is a search button in stadia app... seriously, where is it Stadia? Where tf is a freaking search button, I ask !?

Depressed because of my hardcore 2K player getting back into the swing of things and no next-gen news has arrived. Really making me want to put down my controller or just play xenoverse 2.

Service is improving, more games are always welcome. Hopefully exclusive AAA Stadia games are on the horizon for 2021, those are the types of games that will bring people to the service.

Some how I feel it in my gut that ark will run at 1080P 30fps. I will give stadia its due credit if it can run ark native 4k at 60fps. But I know it's a long shot

Can these demos be played on Chromecast?

I know you typically have to add something to your library before you can play on there...

Humankind looks like it is going to be a fantastic title. With this and Football Manager 2020 (hopefully 2021 too), is it also possible that Total War games could come to Stadia, since these are all part of Sega Europe?

I would love to see Three Kingdoms and Troy come over to Stadia.

@ChaosTheory

Remember last year when Ark was announced, and you called me a troll because I said by the time it's actually released, I'll have played it to death? 

Still think I'm a troll, or have you realised yet that very few games have 6 months of playability, and the few that do (like Ark) still get boring eventually, and here we are, 9 months after I first said Ark would be a good fit, and still no timescale for a release?
