This is fact I just did this for a friend this week. Your GPU must be expired. Here is the math 3x12mo=1,095days of game pass core. 1,095/90=12.167x36=438 days of game pass ultimate.
Yeah it sucks they raised the price $10 but it includes $10 worth of fortnite bs. I don't and never will play fortnite but there is actual value to this rate hike and not just a random increase.
That's like Amazon raising Prime cost and citing all the bullshit that 99% of people don't care about.
Question. We used to be able to convert enough core codes into 3 years of ultimate. I understand conversion rates have changed but is this stating we can only convert a max of 3 years of core into ultimate or can we still convert enough core codes to equal 3 years of ultimate?
Also wondering on thoughts of getting only 6 weeks of ultimate for a possible better Black Friday deal?
No it appears that they you have an existing sub the conversion is less.But then wouldn't that mean the second you put in any of the codes you bought, then you'd have an existing sub so every code you entered after would be subject to the bs it gave me
no thats not what happens. you cant have ultimate already when you add the core.

nobody on game pass is playing fortnite. it isnt adding any value for us
I'm glad I stacked 3 years GP Ultimate at ~$6/month while the VPN deals worked. Probably won't be renewing when that's over - time to fully embrace PC gaming on a budget on my R9 7950X3D RTX 5090 rig.
im going to look into gamefly. at least that way I can play any game and not just what happens to go into game pass

You did it wrong. And no, it doesn't automatically get converted.You need to have your membership lapsed. And you need to add all the core codes first and then buy a month of ultimate.

Bloomberg just reported Microsoft lost 300 million due to game pass so this isn't really a corporate greed issue.
Probably shouldn't have bought Activision for 75 billion if they were concerned with money.

Dude it's a business not a charity company. If you haven't noticed everything goes up over time. It's simple. don't buy it. I heard the PlayStation has some really cheap pass plans. That's highway robbery what they charge over there.

You should reread that article. They estimate Microsoft lost 300 million in sales for putting COD on game pass. They don't have official profit or loss numbers on the actual gamepass.

That article is biased journalism that is trying to click bait people. A few jaded employees do not make a truthful article. No one outside of a small group knows why there is a price hike.
So you need to make new account or I can cancel my membership before 8th for example and start again with this somehow? I don't have anything important on pc side, but kiddo does on Xbox so not sure how to proceed best lol. But yeah F the $30 a month when it is mostly 3rd rate games with few good ones over a year but you can collect them all cheap or free eventually anyway.

It's not about having GPU and the best deals anymore, it's about slapping them back in the face how they have slapped us so many times. I would encourage everyone to stick it to the corporations that think they are in control, when in reality us, the consumers, hold all the power
You'll never hold any of the power, consumer. That is until you stop consuming.
Just to confirm I had an expired subscription and purchased a 12 month core gift card. Then I added a code for 1 month game pass ultimate. By upgrading to ultimate I was able to get 177 days with an expiration of March 30th. Hope this helps.

The post doesn't say you need to be lapsed. That's a HUGE criteria of making it work.
