The loss of 250 points per day for just playing with a friend on PC is a massive blow to my balance, plus if the auto redeem discounts disappear then it looks like we'll be paying for ultimate going forward which I'm probably not prepared to do.
Problem is that it seems to not be tracking the "play a game on console" for a bunch of people, myself included. I got the 3 points but that's it
I finally got it, but had to wait over 30 minutes before it finally showed. Even playing Jewel took almost that long even though the reward is for completing 1 level.
@@ScottBaker_for Jewel I've found it works better if you beat the level and start a new one, and play a few moves in the next level
Dang you only got 3 points for that? I'm getting 10 and 5 for jewel. Yeah I saw a few people on twitter complaining it's not tracking or super delayed. Hopefully they fix it before the weeks out or they'll be inundated with tickets from everyone trying to get the points.
@@thefourhorsemen3159 no the 3 from the daily "play a game pass game"
Play a game on console points didn't unlock for me for a while, I think you have to play a game for certain time!! Then eventually it unlocks
Just wanted to say I appreciate your calm and respectful tone. I know some people tend to get upset over rewards changes so I appreciate your presentation!
It's something, but I do miss the extra points on the mobile app for having Game Pass and at least 7 friends. And, the 5 points each for looking at various game offers on the console app.
UPDATE 3/27/24: Some people have asked about whether the console bonus and/or the new "Play a game on console" task can be completed with a non-Game Pass game (like something you might have purchased). In my testing, this does appear to work with purchased Series X|S games. Happy hunting! 😊🏅
Mine as well. Free to play Apex Legends for example tracks.
So I guess the 1000 points and 2500-point streak bonuses are gone for good? I wonder how many game pass subs they will lose when the people using points to pay for it no longer can.
This is a completely valid question, I am one that primarily uses my points for my GP Ultimate subscription. I'm on SSI, I get $889 a month to live on, getting GPU is going to be rough for me now.
Currently as it is if the reduction in points stays as it is I expect to earn around 10,000 points a month less unless they add quite a lot extra once this new rewards system takes over. As it is with the play with friends on pc going that's lost 250 points per day.
I wouldn't mind them bringing punch cards back, as long as they actually registered that you did the tasks. But of course, it's Microsoft, so it would probably be glitchy.
I would be earning, according to me, around 8000 points monthly, you?
Let's just hope this works better than the play a pc game online. Never seemed to work losing out 250 points a day.
Doesn't it only give 20 points for playing a pc game?
Sometimes you had to do it first thing in the morning because you never knew but I consistently got them every day
@@AceBountyHunterRex they use to do play a pc game and play a pc game online, the online one was 100 points and when completed with all other you got bonus points. Problem is it didn't work most of the time and they got rid of it after 2 weeks.
@@VXGaming ah i see didn't know that was a thing all be it briefly.
Not a bad way to soften the pain of removing our beloved weekly streak. I play my eccy box everyday so this won't be a problem for myself.
Love your channel.
Long time Bing member who just jumps through all the hoops I can to earn some gift cards and get some cool stuff...almost everything has an adjustment period while they work out the specifics of their goals. Interesting change and I will try to make the most of it. Your videos have helped tremendously and can't thank you enough.
For people who have limited space on their PCs, I am able to get it to pop with the Microsoft games, I play Mahjong and Jigsaw. There is also Solitaire and Sudoku and one other that I can't think of.
My play a game on console hasn’t worked since they introduced it, even though I’ve spent quite a while playing The Quarry and getting a number of achievements from it.
Is anyone else having the same issue? I’ve tried playing games on my console and cloud based games, but it’s made no difference and I’ve been on for around 1.5 hours again tonight.
Same issue here! I don’t think that has popped for me EVER! I’ve tried game pass games, owned games, played for more than 30 minutes a day etc and nothing :( I only have one Xbox account on my console so it’s definitely not because I’m signed into another either
@@IvyLilley You might need to sign up to rewards first. I had to make an account to start getting points, but that was 6 years ago no idea if they changed it.
It works for me but it'd delayed by a day. If I play on Monday, it won't show up that I played a day until Tuesday.
Trying playing different games. Also start up games I found that quick resume doesn’t work sometimes.
@@JohnPaul-rs5dr Like I said, I’ve tried playing games installed on my console and via the cloud. That’s at least 7-8 Gamepass games it’s not worked for.
Still no points added this morning 😢
Thank you!! Your videos are very helpful
Does any one try to redeem points and all you get is a black screen? It’s put me off trying to get points in future as I don’t know if I’ll be able to redeem them when I want something
The “play a game on console” seems sketchy to me. Doesn’t seem to register and then it just kinda randomly does. Still hasn’t registered mine yet today.
It takes a while but eventually it works for me.
Mine sort of worked the first week, now it isn't tracking at all.
Do you know if we r still gonna have daily searches on bing edge on the Xbox. And the mobile daily search?
Thanks for explaining this...👍
Does anyone know if it has to be a game pass game for it to work? Just curious as I don’t have gp right now.
I use game pass to earn points, which I use to earn free game pass😂
Do you even get enough points to keep renewing each month?
Easily
My'n doesent renew from a year from now.
@@raidengoodman8754 most people in the US are able to get 13k a month as a free member so yeah its possible to indefinitely get game pass free. If you add in all the game pass quests it's possible to get 20k+ a month which covers game pass and lets you build towards free games/dlc and other things.
You use the stones to destroy the stones? Lol
Thank you for the explanation. They really didn't have much information about it when they rolled this out. Didn't even know where the tab was until this video..lol... over 15 minutes?.. wow.. Sadly I've been on a reward streak for over 2 1/2 years which will be going away soon with no substitution it appears. Don't know if I will be as dedicated now as it is getting harder to earn rewards for alot less.
What about the lump of 6 that show every Thursday… in the app the drop 6 searches for 5 points each
sadly we will lose it.
The play on console will work on cloud on any device .
Your Gamerscore is 190 more than mine, so close! Very random
Weekly console bonus and play a game on console aren't working for me at all. It never tracks no matter what I play or do.
I'm having the same issue. The weekly console bonus & play a game on console is not working multiple days in a row now. I think it only worked for me one time, so I've never been able to complete the 5 days bonus.
Anyone else's console game not tracking? Honestly since this is weekly, I think it's far better than before.
Me
Me
Is anyone else having issues with the 2 daily gamepass quests?
Yes, I’m very annoyed. I’m 1 daily quest away from the monthly 1000 points and it runs out tomorrow. I’ve played three different GP games and got an achievement and neither have popped. Being British, I shall be extremely miffed and tut loudly if I don’t get my 1000 points before popping the kettle on and having a cup of tea.
Yes, it's not working on Saturday morning with to games
You to on 3/29/24 and 3/30/2024 I played coffee talk 2 on game pass and well still waiting for them to accept that I played COFFEE TALK 2 ON GAME PASS.
Thankfully, it’s now crediting today’s and yesterday’s dailies so I was able to get my 1000 points. I was a bit worried, being Easter weekend, that it wouldn’t be fixed in time. Doesn’t stop me having a cup of tea though 😀
So out of curiosity what's a game one could use to get the pc points since i don't game on pc for xbox.
I use the Microsoft Solitaire Collection for PC. You can download it through the PC Xbox app. 😀🏅
Just saw this on my app😊
Kinda bummed about this weekly console streak bonus arriving just when I'm about to travel for a few weeks without it. I wonder if I'll even be able to do the monthly quest for April on the road now.
I played for an hour and still wasnt complete hope they sort this out?
My play on console not working, I did downloaded, cloud, gamespass, and bought games and nothing.
Can confirm, cloud gaming works for us PC folks. I played a xbox 360 game just to be safe...but I'm sure it'll work with any game via cloud. (Which means if you don't own a console, you HAVE to be ultimate to get this as PC pass can't cloud game.)
How is it working? I tried it but it's not working. I tried for over 2 hours. What game did you use?
@Tcor_Bart203 so when I posted this, it worked. But now with 5 days left..I've only gotten credit once.
I played dragon origins(xbox360) via steam deck. It only worked once so far.
Getting kind of annoyed by the unreliability of the rewards activating/giving credit.
I do every quest and objectives even the small ones it adds up
True! Even the streak on the Bing app is huge. After 34 day streak, you get 150 EXTRA points every 10 days for just clicking through the little articles.
It’s stange doesn’t work for me don’t know how to fix’s it
Ah, good to know. By coincidence, my Xbox's hard drive died a few days before this appeared on the Xbox mobile app. For a moment I thought the offer was being made because I hadn't logged in through the console in a while but I realized there's no way MS Rewards has that level of per user customization 😄
As of right now, it looks like it's over 12k a month for me. So I'll be able to keep getting game pass for free if auto redeem discount goes away.
I don't see them getting rid of the auto redeem if anything they'll just up the price like they did with the xbox gift cards
I cant find it anywhere and im subscribbed to ultimate, It doesnt show up when i press on my profile or search it up, Is this a region thing or something else?
It could be potentially. The full list of regions for the Rewards program is listed here: support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/microsoft-rewards-regions-9795ec47-c0f4-a33e-aede-738903359d63
How do you play the Mobile game on Xbox app? I'm kinda stumped here.
Here's a video where I covered the Jewel game. th-cam.com/video/qtPc-9Wm9ZY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GPHnFeCLaU9nFL-I&t=208 😊🏅
Any one know if the weekly console bonus is bugged or something? Do you have to do it consecutively or for a certain period of time? I play every day and it is still at day one for me and not counting my played days even though I have got the other points such as play a game on console. I'll probably submit a support ticket to Microsoft rewards in this regard.
How many points per day do you guys from the USA get?
I’m not getting the bonus points anymore even though I have gamepass ultimate? Did something change recently?
Seems like they discontinued that again. Was gone awhile back, and came back for like 2 months. now it’s gone again. They can’t make up their minds it seems
@@0vercheese Ah gotcha thanks for clarifying thought I was going crazy darn
Hello . Is it normal that i don't earn my points of weeks streak ?
What app is this? The gamepass app does not seem to work and there is no "Jewel" to be found. And 'Play on console' seems broken too. Played about 2 hours of Brotato on my Series X and it did not pop.
It’s just the Xbox app.
@@RewardsHunter I'm not really into this mobile stuff, will have a look at the store. Thanks
Is there a work around to get the play a pc game points if you only have a Xbox and not a pc
Not that I’m aware of. 😀🏅
Oh Dang Thanks anyway
This not tracking for me you know why?
Very nice
It has to be a gamepass game? or can be any other game to get the points?
I know for the 10 point quest to play a console game, you can use a non-Game Pass game. I did it yesterday with a game that I had purchased on my own. I'm guessing that might work here as well, but I haven't tested it just yet since it's Day 1 of this new bonus. I can try it this week and let you know though. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter I know you can even use a free xbox game for the play on console quest
What shoukd I do if my achievements aren't acknowledged by the rewards program?
They weren’t working yesterday. Should be fixed now. 😀🏅
Mine is no longer working.... not since last week
Can you confirm this work for game on cloud? Tried on cloud but it isn't complete?
Can't confirm yet since it's only day 1, but I can definitely test it tomorrow. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter thanks!
Didn't work for me either.
Correction, it works with cloud. And as you said it need 15 minutes or a little bit more.
I don't know how core works, but they could add 15pts to people who own that if they don't own ultimate.
Core only gets points for playing on each of the platforms. So 45/day US. And 250 for the weekly streak if that works.
The weekly console is not registered the days
Playing on a console doesn't work for me. I tried all day. Hours and hours with 5 different games across both my Xbox's and the cloud. The same is happening again today it seems.
Has anyone else’s weekly bonus award reset back to 1 day out of 5 since the Bing outage earlier? I should have been on 4/5.
Mine keeps resetting. I play on Monday and Tuesday and have two "blocks" filled in but each Wednesday it resets and I start again. That still gives me 5 days to play so I have been able to get the reward by playing Wednesday to Sunday. However today (Sunday) it has reset again to just one block and that obviously makes it impossible to get the reward. I have reported it but haven't yet had a reply.
@@adrianthomas_musicJust happened to me again. Always on Thurs it resets so that I don’t have enough remaining days to get to 5 days.
what program you do this on?
You can see this within the Rewards section of your profile on your Xbox console, or within the Xbox app on your phone. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter i am on laptop
I’ve been playing and some days it doesn’t fill the bar.
I’ve heard of a few people having that issue. You’re always playing the downloaded and installed games right? Not a cloud game?
@@RewardsHunter yep. All I play are game pass games and I never play them via cloud.
It’s not working 100% my profile wasn’t saying I played my games
OK, so it seems like it's better to be Core rather than Ultimate, at least in terms of points it seems like it is not worth it to be Ultimate. What do you think?
I’m personally subscribed to ultimate. You get a much larger selection of games, including most of the games that I feature here on the Rewards Hunter channel. You also have access to play the games on the cloud. 😀🏅
Console and weekly isn’t working for me 🙁
Same
I am from france.
@@christianblg9817 est ce que tu recuperes tes points de series de semaines ?
@@adaammmmm oui
Tu veux dire les nouveaux points de la semaine 275 points?.
Tout les 5 jours avec une barre qui se rempli?.
Oui j'ai récupérés hier les 275 mais ça marche pas sur tout les jeux
J'ai trouvé un jeu ça marche à chaque fois c'est dead by .daylight
will bing searchs still be available
Yes 😀🏅
@@RewardsHunterThanks!!!😃
Thanks for providing such a great resource for help on quests. Would you happen to have any advice for a suspended rewards account? I have been suspended for four months for reasons I am unclear. All attempts to contact Microsoft have been ignored. Thanks!
Sorry, no other than contacting the team I'm not sure. Could you start up a new account? It might be something to consider as a last resort. 😊🏅
More than 500 thousand rewards points, will you redeem a prize, someday, friend?
I do sometimes! Just not all the time. 😄🏅
Noooo I was at 179weeks about to get 2500
I wonder why they changed everything up
Did you see my previous video? If not, I mentioned some of the reasoning why I think they made the changes there: th-cam.com/video/x02e0IAcrr4/w-d-xo.html 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter ah I have not thank you I'll give it a watch 🙏
Didn't they say they would remove the app in a month? why implement an update? I do not understand
If your asking why the new system is implemented already, I'm guessing it was so they already had something in place and working for when the app goes away
Yes, the older Rewards App continues to function until around April 15th, but I think they wanted to quickly let us know that they had something in mind to kind of replace the weekly streaks. IMO they should have updated everything simultaneously, but that's just my 2 cents. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter the brother has contacts with the higher ups it means that it will be like this 🤫
Old system out. New system in
Can you make a tutorial on how to get 500 points a day. (I can only get around less then 400 right know and i want to get game pass and different games)
Please see my General Strategies playlist for all of my best tips! th-cam.com/play/PLtlwyp6o9nwe5cE4An5D6sDdAuXA3EKXp.html 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter thank you so much I still would like to see a video in the future of it if you can make it will all the new things happening
@@TheSoddi Yep. This one is a ton of work and usually comes out once per year in the summer. 😀🏅
@@RewardsHunter how much points do you make around every day I just wondering
because you have so much points
Does it work in uae
UAE is on the list of countries where the program is active (support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/microsoft-rewards-regions-9795ec47-c0f4-a33e-aede-738903359d63), but you'd have to test it there to know for sure. 😊🏅
247 week streak down the drain ..😢 booo
You sad about the streak number? Cause points wise you'll be getting more per month from this weekly streak than the one we have now.
That's what I was thinking, we get more points.
@@thefourhorsemen3159You definitely won’t be getting more points, I was very rarely under 25,000 points a month, was over 30,000 sometimes. I think it will be around 10,000 a month now. They have been removing points every week for months now.
Sooooooooo it doesn't work with Xbox 360 I take it?? 🤔 😬
I would be surprised if it did. I’d love it, but I’d be surprised. 😀🏅
@@RewardsHunter so far no dice. There's no rewards hub. And gold of course is gone. I guess I'm stuck not getting that 100+ points everyday... Ugh
Have you thought about upgrading to a Series S? They're fairly affordable and I know you won't be disappointed if you get one. 😊🏅
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees 😂
I personally like this more. And I can use my ultimate to get extra points so no complaints here😂
A new way to earn a nice amount of points. That is generous of Microsoft.
I'm only at my console four days out of the seven, so I just hope a Cloud function still allows me to get the points or I will have to take drastic measures 🙄
Yep, some people are beginning to confirm now that playing via cloud has worked for them. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter blessed relief 🙏
Seems to be yet another broken task, Got the day 1 checked but hasn't tracked since
Am I missing something? This has been on the app and console since January. Why is it being presented as new?
It's only been available to SOME people as a trial while they tested it out. It's new for most of us. 😊🏅
@@RewardsHunter Thanks for the clarification.
I’ve been using it for the past month or so too… except the weekly bonus for having GPU was an extra 250 points instead of 25. Lame that they changed that amount too!
So far all the changes are awful. Getting a lot less points while they upped the points needed for redemptions.
Meanwhile Indian xbox users : 😢
