Shame there isn't a button in the settings you could just toggle.

I get your point, but you whining about something that is completely in your control speak volumes on how much you know about the console you are using.
Some games even give you the option to turn it off in the menus.
Are you sure? You want a fight sparky?

Do me a favor, fire up COD, and warzone, turn off the cross platform settings in said settings, and let me know next week when you get a game. (Not to mention the annoying pop ups)

Microsoft did this on purpose, because the "brand" is now not a console, but an "idea". They have a vested interest in forcing console players to play with PC players. They could have, right in the games menus, put an option, just like on the PS. They did not.

I don't care if some other games allow you to do it or not. All games should have that option, as it's the reason I bought a console, to play with other console owners. If some people want to get shot through 5 buildings from some PC asshat flying around in the sky, cool. Not me.
 
I had signed up, but there never seemed to be all that much going on and discord kept giving me grief. 🤷‍♂️

Bad news for the members that were invested in the community I guess.

What even is this thing ?
Astroturfing, only out in the open. Several era mods are MVPs from the ambassador program. You get free shit. Get flown out to MS fan events. Get rewarded for shitting up forums, twitter and discord. Mostly with some vouchers and other freebies.

This will make forums and twitter a better place since xbox wont be bribing these cunts anymore.

The vast, vast majority of people in the Ambassador program got exactly NONE of that. People who type shit like that only prove they have no fucking clue what they're talking about and are trying to score console warz points.

Understandable, the program was dead, would poke in from time to time & only people who were involved just cared about the giveaways.
 
I had to google, "does he know" as I had no idea what that was a reference to lol. I guess I just don't understand why this is major news or a big deal. 99% of this thread consists of people who live and breathe on the hopes that xbox will die and also can't wait to dance on xbox's grave (it's their wet dream of dreams). And so here we are - they're acting like xbox fans are on suicide watch over the dumbest of news, yet unsurprisingly they're are also the only ones even talking about it.

It was just a snarky way of saying you've known them the whole time on this board.

How do you know this and do you have any proof? I'm not doubting you but we have two people with completely different claims so might as well just bust out the proof\sources and find out who's lying.

xbox is dead finally
No, there are real ambassadors who don't need permission, it's obvious, if any topic is about belittling the green box they make sure it's the 60m who bought the blue box for ratchet, spider man and astro, zehahahahaha!!!!

When you read the blog. It really is a program of clever manipulation.

Look at this:
  • To honor the principles and sentiment of the Xbox Ambassador Pledge, we have launched the Xbox Community Pledge,
Then there's the bit about Xbox Ambassador Champions. Its all like some kind of medieval fantasy world. Cult like mentality for sure.

You're not kidding.

Firstly it reads and is formatted like a psalm. Secondly, "join us to live the pledge"?
