Have not been able to test Outriders becouse of...

Jump to Best Response

During the weekend i started Outriders as I saw there was a free 45 minutes try. after a couple of minutes i stopped the game as i was haveing some connection issues (the problem was my isp, not stadia). Today i tryed to launch the game to resume the gameplay and it says I have already played it and cannot launch it without buying.

Is this behavior expected or is it an "error"?

ps: I closed the game properly and I also got the popup survey asking why I closed the game

Hi @giocs 

I am afraid it works as designed.

When your first start the game it starts the timer, but when you quit the timer continues to run... :face_without_mouth:

So if you start your session a day after the timer has finished ... Sorry

@RXShorty Thanks for your reply. Even though it worked as expected, I think it is pretty stupid. I don't see why they could not make it 45 minutes of effective gaming. Since we are talking about cloud gaming, there are a number of unexpected events that may happen.

Yeah read about this as well. Many content creators and folks on Twitter were warning about this. I sincerely hope, while I think this is unfortunately to be expected - it is not actually intended. I really hope we'll get an official response from the Stadia team.
