What's stopping you of getting it on both?
Why not get it on both?

It's Play Anywhere, so regardless, you get both lol
That will depend on how well word of mouth spreads. It sure as shit won't get any marketing.
same.
downloaded and launched.
There's only two resolution options: "Original" (scaled 480p) or "Best" (whatever you set the window to be, basically)
edit: there's 3 crossplay options
Yes (default)
No (strict) - only play with PC players that also are set to No Crossplay
No (standard) - only match into same platform but if the host allows crossplay, other platform will be able to join
edit: amusingly, the Live menu is pretty much unchanged from the original, including the long-retired "optimatch" terminology heh

If it's anything like the Halo Wars season pass, there's no need to install, it's tied to your account.

The windows store is facing some issues currently.
But you are trying to download both at the same time?

I hope I'll be able to launch it on XO then. ^^

Dafuck I'm downloading this at like 24Mbps, normally my download maxes out at 3Mb/s, even on speed tests.

Here you go - I compare the highest settings (only 3 options) with the lowest settings.

Highest - very low FPS, feels like 15-20 and an N64 game.
Lowest - very stable, feels like 30+ easy
If anyone has a good/free easy way to check FPS in Windows Games, let me know.
Yeah started the Windows version a few minutes before the Xbox version.

Downloading now!
I'm a UK resident and can confirm that you have to search for the game to download it from the Windows Store.
I don't know either, I'll have to start the game up before I can give my judgement on it.

Still nothing here, all I see is a song from some DJ. Do you need the Creator's Update for this?
I get it, but I was mostly talking initially if I should choose PC or Xbox.

If you search Phantom Dust in the store does it bring up the multiplayer starter pack? If so, click on it and then under "works with" you can go to the Phantom Dust page and download the game.

It works fine for me. Spooky intro!
Graphics look reasonable too on my 4K TV. Xbox is back!

That's the same exact speed, just different units.

Just got the "Have I done this before?" Achievement
Why yes, I have.
Is that the 30 min one? Did you just smash X to go through the tutorials? Because I honestly can't remember chapter 1->2 at all.

Yeah, I agree.
It's just that I've been waiting to play this game since a long time (even if it wasn't free), so I'm a bit excited! And it's 1.25am here, I'm still downloading and I'd like to be able to try it even just 20 minutes before going to bed. Yeah it is, it seems like its measured by time spent above ground in the arena rather than including running around the underground city, but I'm not sure so I just mashed through everything just in case.
Newcomers will mainly have an issue
since they wont know which people to immediately seek out in order to get to the Test/Freia Boss.
