Its not really an option....as in you can't really switch it off unless you're manually going into the groups/quick resume and switching it off per game

I'm really annoyed Mass Effect Remastered doesn't have it tbh, it actually means I usually load in a diff game that HAS got quick resume (Yakuza LaD for one).

Just realised loads of achievements that should have unlocked on Yak 4 have not. I wonder if it's because the game has always been in Quick Resume for me? I will wait until tomorrows weekly rewards go up (which will have the "unlock 3 achievements" one) and then close and reboot the game properly. Hopefully that will tick off the challenge straight away!

I have not had the controller disconnect on Quick Resume launch problem since the last controller update, which is a real plus.

This tends to happen to me if my son has been playing on his account on something else. Having multiple accounts on the same XBox seems to strawberry float QR up on certain games (Fenyx for example really doesn't like it).

Yeah me too. Although once I moved it to the internal SSD I didn’t mind as much even though I make sure I save after a mission now as opposed to just pausing mid mission

Lovely. Enjoy it when it arrives. Any particular games you'll be going for to start with?

Ruddy hell, it's Gorrable! Hopefully you'll be getting Game Pass too. Check the thread before you sign up, and make sure you get the best out of the upgrade offer.

"For the first time since Windows was concepted, you can now have the icons of your taskbar centered."

I jest, of course, even if such is true. It looks a lot cleaner of a start menu than we've had since 'Metro' appeared on the scene with Windows 8.

Windows 11? Thought when Windows 10 came out that was meant to be it and they’d just continue to update/support that?

Clearly, they backtracked from that when they realised such massive updates were too large to just include into Windows 10. I always had a feeling it would never last. Eventually they would have needed a way to bring in new updates that couldn't just be handled through a simple update of 10 - even if such is possible.

Besides, how else would they hype something up without a new name attached to it?

I just got what I think are my rarest achievements.
Wasteland 3 DLC
Workers United 0.02% and Blue's Back with 0.01% .

Not bad considering I don't normally care about achievements or trophies and have never got a Platinum or whatever it is on xbox.

DLC achievements are traditionally pretty rare, due to a smaller percentage of that games players owning it. As always, TrueAchievements is the place to be for any achievement stats.

39% and 24% of DLC owners respectively have those achievements. Not trying to rain on your parade or anything.... :P
