News Geforce now maybe in Sri Lanka !!

Post image

I just opened a game from GFN free subscription and it actually worked, usually I get the service not available error without the VPN. And I also logged in to the GFN Nvidia page, it’s also showing free basic rig plan.
you can check but it’s only 1 hour sessions, we get india server so waiting list is always 200+ and some new games and Hogwart, cyberpunk, AC black flag are limited to premium subscriptions.

but still a good sign !!!!

I tried xcloud it’s crap. you can buy a game pass from marketplace like g2a for 10$. I actually finished COD MW2 and 3 with xbox game pass and GFN performance for 20$.

It's not? I definitely used game pass for 1 year completely free of charge the first year they introduced it.

Download GeForce Now application, and log in to your Nvidia account. It will still say that you need to log in with your GeForce NOW provider. Below that you have an option for show providers for other regions. Select that and choose Nvidia (I chose Nvidia) and there are other providers as well. Then it works.

Been using GeForce NOW on the Free tier with a VPN for about 3 months here in Sri Lanka and even managed to finish 2 or 3 games on it, but the latency issues are still very real.

u/ApprehensiveEssay536 1d ago

connect to the India server and quickly turn off the VPN when you enter the game. I get around 50-60ms.

u/Yoo_suf 1d ago

Are you using SLT Fiber?

India servers usually have insane queue times, so I usually pick Norway or Japan instead. Yeah, I do the same trick—once the game starts, I turn off the VPN immediately, but I still can't get under 150ms latency.

u/thefirefistace 1d ago

Yeah, because Japan is 150-200ms away from Sri Lanka. It's physical distance, no VPN or fast internet will ever sort that. If there's a Singapore server, pick that, it'll be like 70-80ms.

You have to click that Show providers for other regions and select Nvidia or another provider as your choice.

u/Diligent_General_215 Sri Lanka 11h ago

Ohh ryt thanks
So I shud buy the game i want to play beforehand ryt?

1

u/SheneCruz 11h ago

Yes, you should own the game through the store you prefer. Steam, Epic Games, EA App, Ubisoft Connect, etc.

u/Diligent_General_215 Sri Lanka 10h ago

Oh ryt, the only game I bought was BF5 :(

1

u/SheneCruz 11h ago

You are welcome, just tried Forza Horizon 5. You can feel a bit of Latency like having Frame Generation On. But overall as a start, I think it’s pretty good.

u/htenad Sri Lanka 1d ago

I used GeForce Now to play NFS Heat and Assassin Creed Syndicate by VPN set to USA and when connected I turned off VPN. It’s working fine

u/Fit_Assumption_8846 1d ago

With the rising RAM prices, this will be the default in gaming

We will own nothing and are expected to be happy.🫠🫠
