GeForce Experience Update - Play co-op over the web and share game

[GoodBytes]

Nvidia is working in adding new set of features to GeForce Experience.

The software will allow gamers to stream their game to another user's PC over the Internet, and allow them to play cooperatively with a just a single copy with a friend. The feature will be called: Nvidia Shield! GameStream co-op.

It is launching in the coming weeks as beta form.

The company says that GameStream co-op will only support 720p streaming at 60 FPS using h.264 encoding at first, with a minimum 6Mbps upload speed recommended. The co-op player or viewer can view it/play via a Google Chrome plug-in, so technically speaking, from what we know, if teh player has intel integrated graphics solution only or AMD, they will be able to join with the host.

In addition to this, Nvidia says that their will release a new GUI for its ShadowPlay DVR capture suite.

Finally, GeForce Experience will no longer boost the best graphics with it's auto=tune feature for MOBA games, but rather try and achieve 120fps. So many, expect a visual degradation in both settings and resolution, if you don't have a powerful graphics card (or you can turn it off).

That's reeeally nice! If AMD users will be able to participate(co-op friend) that will be a big plus.

[CydiaDash]

Nice... too bad hardly any of my friends own PCs

[Imakuni]

I have effective 2mb upload (and that's a lot here!), but they ask me 6? WTF!!

[Dabombinable]

Do they have any idea how few people have above 2MBps upload? Here in Australia for example without the NBN your stuck on ADSL2, and its less than 1Mbps upload.

@Imakuni

Time to get a business internet connection-though the prices....

[SurvivorNVL]

That is pretty amazing.  Too bad all my friends are just acquaintances :c

[silberdrachi]

How many games actually support local co-op (and not lan) now days... I always check out the steam page for them but most are very meh.

[Pony080905]

so its like the Nintendo ds game sharing thing

[Cainn]

.90 upload. Eat dick.

[deviant88]

That is great for some.

No wonder they have such market growth dang.

[MrRavens]

Love the Nvidia shield joke haha. There were like 3 shields.

[That Norwegian Guy]

I have 10mbps upload speed but made the (final) switch to AMD just a bit more than a month ago

Is your name a reference to the Pokemon TCG by any chance?

Yes, more specifically, from this. Freaked the hell out of me when I was a kid

 

[Psykomantis00]

It's running in plebstation level resolution but fuck me if I'm not impressed.

That game still has the best soundtrack of any Gameboy game I can remember

 

[decoy11]

I wonder how this compares to steam in home streaming. I know everyone is thinking about streaming over the internet but I think I could use this for streaming to my TV with an HTPC and not buy a Nvidia Shield.

[twovaliant2]

I'm kind of more interested in the new GUI for its ShadowPlay...perhaps new features?

[Biggerisbetter]

I don't know about this, this seems more like a gimmick and nothing more. Legally I don't think game publishers will go for this. Sharing without paying goes against the fabric of triple A developers. Just my 2 cents.

 

Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer  

[themaniac]

but can it run over wire so could play with someone in the same room/house
