What I want to do with JD is play household to household, for example two people in each household playing against each other. It's not clear if JD supports this at all, they say you have to track people down in the lobby, which could be impractical. Thanks.

I would probably buy the game outright, for the monthly Pro selection they promise it will get better but right now Stadia is 90% violent shooters or kids games, which don't interest me.

I saw today that some people subscribe to pro on the last day of the month, as you'll then be able to claim that month's free games, and then claim the next months free games the day after... basically 2 months of free games for 1 month of subscribing.

orbitdesign wrote: ↑ All I can answer is that the "PRO" tag beside it just means the sale price that it shows is for PRO subscribers. If you buy the game and then cancel PRO, you keep any game that you bought. As a PRO (trial or not), claim all the games you can. If you cancel PRO and then later decide to subscribe again, you'll regain access to any of the games you claimed for free.

davidm wrote: ↑ Thanks. Was just in chat with Stadia support who also confirmed this. So I guess I'll buy it for $10 after coupon, though the real value in Covid times would be household to household play, which I don't think it supports. I guess they'll roll that advanced feature out in 2025 or something.

That said would anyone recommend a game or two as a must try? These prices seem great. Would love an immersive game for a bit of an escape. TIA!

From what Ubisoft says, you can't do this, you have to go to the lobby, and track them down individually,. which I guess means searching thousands of people, and it's not clear you could include all the people. Or play against random people.
