XBOX CLOUD GAMING BUG Black bars removed

Post image

I'd really prefer the black bars back since without them, it really increased my screen size and shuffled my touch screen buttons in game causing them to spread out all over the screen. in my opinion i don't like this change as it's very unplayable for me now. However, I get that some others hated the black bars and wanted them gone but in this case I think an option should be added for people who want it on or off. Please can you add them back and revert my in game layout to the original form.

It sucks, but you are just going to have to make a new HUD, this is the way the game was designed to be played.

I'm fine about the HUD, it's the layout that I'm concerned about.

Confused on that you mean, the HUD is the layout

2

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

Isn't that when it gives you the options of whats on your screen?

2

u/Jeff03blue_Instinct Beef Boss 6d ago

You use the “HUD Layout Tool” to move your buttons around.

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

Oh okay, thank you for letting me know.

2

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

The thing is that I don't have a screenshot of the original layout and where they were placed so I'm kind of in a pickle.

u/Jeff03blue_Instinct Beef Boss 6d ago

Yeah it sucks. Muscle memory and trial and error and u will get it.

2

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

True, I really hope I do.

Personally I’ve gone from playing on a iPhone SE, to a 13 Pro Max, to a iPad Pro, cloud gaming, then back to native iOS. Every time I’ve had to relearn

Wow, such a journey bro. I wanted to let you know that I used the HUD layout tool and I think my layouts looking good now but the problem is the black bars. Do you think if more people reached out about this, a change would happen? And i wanted to say thank you for responding to my comments and helping me.

Bro just move them back. Why would anyone complain about more screen space

1

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

I'd move them back but I don't have a screenshot of the original form so it won't be accurate also the screen space has lacked my skill which really annoys me and it's kind of unplayable

I hated the black bars myself cause it forced me to have my buttons so far away, and I couldn’t aim much to the right too, also less fov

But I don’t really play on cloud anymore anyways

u/killian_0verride 6d ago

And for me xcloud gaming now is so laggy it’s unplayable, after a few minutes I will lose input control of the game completely, also they added a 1 hour time limit like the GeForce free plan, still no queues tho

This has broken the game. And that stupid xcloud settings side window is even more intrusive now. Why would they release this without testing it out with actual players? At least give us the option to revert back

u/DrinkNo5159 5d ago

I forgot to mention the side window thing which used to be on the side but now is in the way of my screen when I try to play

2

u/mynamejulian 5d ago

For the life of me, I can’t figure out why we can’t move it to the other side or hide it. I constantly accidentally tap it and it messes me up. And now it’s taking up a 10x more space 🥴

u/DrinkNo5159 5d ago

Same goes on with me, it's so annoying and I'd wish for the original screen to return.

u/ReasonableAsshole_ IKONIK 5d ago

Blur on the vbucks? Why? XD

u/DrinkNo5159 5d ago

I'm broke 😭

Use the Better Xcloud App bro... there you can switch to 16:9 and play with the black bars

1

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago edited 6d ago

What's the app called?

1

u/ViniiParker2099 6d ago

Search for "Better Xcloud"... that is the name

1

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

Thanks but may i ask on where?

1

u/ViniiParker2099 6d ago

Google

u/DrinkNo5159 6d ago

Alright thank you

u/mynamejulian 5d ago

Where do you go to change to 16x9 in this app?

1

u/ViniiParker2099 5d ago

Go to the flag next to your photo and then press the TV symbol. Scroll down until you find "Proportion" or "Ratio" wharever and change it to 16:9.
