The experience was rough for a Linux user

Tried Boosteroid recently, and man, the experience was rough for a Linux user. They claim Linux support, but honestly, it’s pretty limited. No Wayland support, no rpm since Fedora 39, and they won’t even bother with flatpak or appimage. Their troubleshooting guides for Linux are almost non-existent, leaving you to make do with MacOS documentation. The browser performance on Linux is hit-or-miss, worked fine on Windows, but on Debian, Fedora, and Arch, the in-game jitters were unbearable. Their tech staff seems clueless about Linux too. Besides that, they don’t save game settings, so you’re stuck re-downloading language packs or shaders every single time you launch a game. Constantly logging into your Xbox account and resetting Steam settings is a real headache. Servers are always full, even with an ultra subscription. Without a trial, it’s hard to tell if this service will work for you. They need to make game connections seamless and save player settings to improve the experience. I appreciate having a competitor to Nvidia, which is why I gave them two stars, but they have a long way to go.

I used to love Boosteroid

I used to love Boosteroid, but lately, it's been a mess. They gave me 100 free hours after a bad review, but playing when I want is a nightmare. Connecting to a Ukrainian server sometimes works, but if I hit a French or other server, Steam just locks up. Boosteroid support has a fix, but it's a pain to do and makes me worry about safety. Also, sessions often don't start, or the system just won't launch. I have a super-fast internet and a good computer (M1), but support still wants me to run extra programs to check my speed, which feels overkill. Boosteroid needs to step up their game.

Tried out this new gaming

Tried out this new gaming platform recently, and honestly, it wasn't what I expected. I was super excited to dive into my favorite games, but there was a lot of stuttering that made it hard to enjoy. The audio would randomly cut out too, which was pretty frustrating. I kinda regret not holding onto my cash a bit longer. It's still trailing behind GeForce Now, but I see some potential there. Maybe with some tweaks and updates, it could get better. For now, I guess I'll stick to what I know works, but I'll keep an eye on this one. Fingers crossed they can iron out the kinks!

I really hope they fix these soon because the service has great potential

Alright, so here's the thing. Sometimes when I'm gaming with my mouse, the cursor just pops up on the screen randomly. Maybe it's just me, but it's kinda annoying. Another thing, switching languages using hotkeys would be super handy, but instead, I have to press a button and manually select the language each time. It's a small thing, but it adds up. Now, playing in the app is even worse. There's constant tearing, frame drops, and the picture quality is just awful. Moving on to the browser, why do I have to manually select how much internet the game uses? I set it to max, nothing changes. Set it to minimum, still nothing. And then there's the 4K issue. I have a Full HD monitor, but sometimes the game runs in 4K for no reason. There's no setting to control this, which makes no sense. Overall, these are the main issues I've found. I really hope they fix these soon because the service has great potential.

So, in the beginning, everything

So, in the beginning, everything was smooth sailing and after a month, I thought, why not pay for a whole year, right? But then, things went downhill fast. Suddenly, it was like they didn’t want me to play at all. The resolution and fullscreen options would change on their own, and now, no matter what I do, I can’t get fullscreen. Plus, there’s this 5-second delay that makes the game unplayable. I’ve contacted their help desk multiple times. They know about the problem and say they’re working on it—been saying that for 3 weeks now. They keep suggesting I start the game on another device and switch to my smart TV, which worked twice but not anymore. Honestly, I regret paying for a whole year. No refunds though, so I’m stuck.

my experience hasn't been great

I gotta say, my experience with Boosteroid hasn't been great. I missed canceling my subscription by accident, and they just went ahead and charged me for another month without any heads-up. Tried talking to their support to get a refund, but they wouldn't budge at all. Felt like they didn't care about their users' situations. On top of that, the service itself wasn't up to the mark. Had so many lags and performance problems that gaming felt like a chore. I was really hoping for something better, but this whole thing has made me lose faith in them. I wouldn't tell anyone to use Boosteroid, especially if they want fair treatment and decent customer support.

It's disappointing

When I first did the speed test, everything seemed perfect—my PC's connected via Ethernet, and the data center showed right next door. Made me confident enough to buy the service. But once I started gaming, the latency was off the charts! Steam kept saying I was logging in from France, which is weird because I’m nowhere near there, not even in the same continent. Tried reaching out to support a couple times, hoping for some guidance or fix, but no luck. They didn’t respond, and apparently, there’s no refund policy. Feeling pretty let down and like I threw my money away on this. It's disappointing when things don't work as expected.

I was diving into Doom

I was diving into Doom Eternal on GeForce Now, and everything was smooth sailing until I hit a snag. Got halfway through the game, then decided to switch over to Boosteroid. Bam! All my saved games? Gone, vanished into thin air. It was like starting from scratch, and trust me, that’s not fun when you’ve battled through hordes of demons. Elden Ring? Yep, same story, lost progress there too. It’s frustrating when you can’t rely on your saves across platforms. I know others have pointed out some issues, but this disappearing save thing is a real game-breaker for me. Hoping they sort this out soon, because it’s a bit of a bummer.

I was really excited when

I was really excited when I saw the ad for EA FC 25 on Boosteroid, especially since it's a native app on my Samsung TV. The ad convinced me to buy the game, a subscription, and even FC Points. I even went out and got a new PC just to play the game properly. But things took a turn for the worse. Within a week, the game went into maintenance, and then, out of nowhere, my account got banned! I mean, I spent over 400 reais on this game, and now I can't even play it. I only used Boosteroid to play, and now I'm stuck with no game and a banned account. This feels so unfair. Where are my consumer rights in all of this?

My buddy told me to

My buddy told me to try Boosteroid 'cause I hate joysticks for shooting games on my Xbox Gamepass. Thought it was a good idea, so I went for the premium service. But, surprise! Not all Gamepass games are on their platform. Their website didn't mention that at all. When I contacted their customer service to cancel and get a refund (I had the subscription for just 4 hours), they refused. And to top it off, they called me an "Inexperienced Gamer" who can't read terms and conditions properly. Honestly, Boosteroid, I might have lost 10 euros, but you've lost a lot more in terms of respect and potential customers.

I’ve been using this service

I’ve been using this service and got mixed feelings. First off, why can't we switch layouts in the browser using hot keys? It would be super handy. Then there's Rust—every time I join certain servers, downloading the map becomes a struggle. Never had this issue with GeForce Now. And the delay? It's noticeably worse in the app compared to the browser, which is kinda frustrating. But on the upside, the variety of games you offer is mind-blowing! Seriously, there's a ton to choose from, which is pretty awesome. Overall, it's a bit of a rollercoaster, but the game selection is definitely a highlight.

I was really looking forward

I was really looking forward to playing GTA from their library, but what a letdown. Even though the service is from my own country, it performs horribly. Doesn't matter if you have 100 Mbps or 400 Mbps, it's just bad. The sound keeps stuttering, and I get disconnected all the time for no apparent reason. What's frustrating is that their connectivity test always says everything is excellent. But that's a joke because I can't even get consistent 720p quality, let alone 4K. It's been a waste of money, and there's no refund. Seriously, don't bother with this service, it’s just not worth the hassle.

Really bad service

Alright, let me tell you about my experience with this game. It’s like trying to dive into a pool, but the water keeps disappearing. I’d get all set to play, and then it just sits there, loading forever. And then, just when I think I'm in, it kicks me out. Suddenly, there's this queue, and I'm stuck waiting. It’s like a bad joke. I was playing Batman Arkham Knight, and guess what? My save didn't even save. There are tons of other issues, but I'm not gonna bore you with stuff others have already mentioned. Really hoping they sort this out soon because it's a bit of a downer right now.

I was so excited to

I was so excited to play this game, but it turned into a nightmare. First, I had to wait almost 40 minutes just to get through the queue. Finally, when I managed to launch it, Steam wouldn't let me log in. Apparently, their server was too far from where I live. I'm in Sweden, but they connected me to some server in Czech Republic. So frustrating! And of course, no refunds from them, which now makes total sense. The whole experience was a huge letdown. It feels like they're just not interested in making things work smoothly for their customers. Total waste of time and money.

It feels like a step back

I tried Boosteroid recently, hoping for a smooth gaming experience, but it was a mess. Geforce Now was my go-to before, and I kinda regret switching. First off, the delay was super frustrating, like, I clicked and waited ages for a response. And those crashes? Too frequent, almost made me give up. Black screens appeared outta nowhere, ruining the mood. The worst part? My game saves vanished into thin air. The Witcher 3 and Dying Light 2, all progress gone. It was like starting from scratch, and nobody wants that. I thought it’d be an upgrade, but it feels like a step back.

I picked up Mafia 3

I picked up Mafia 3 'cause it was listed on the service, thinking I'd dive into some action. Fired up the console, ready to roll, and bam! Hit with a maintenance screen. Alright, I thought, these things happen. But then I did a quick search, and guess what? It's been like this for over half a year! I mean, come on, that's a long time to keep us waiting. It's frustrating, especially when you're all set to play and then nothing. Feels like they should update us more or at least fix it quicker. Just hoping they sort it out soon so I can finally see what the hype's about.

So, I've been on Boosteroid

So, I've been on Boosteroid for a couple of months now, and honestly, it was all good until recently. I was deep into a Fortnite session when, out of nowhere, I got banned. Thought it was just a fluke on my Epic Games account, so I made a new one. Guess what? Banned again, and I hadn't even done anything shady. Only used Boosteroid for that account. And lately, the service seems laggier than before, even though they hiked up the price. It's kinda frustrating, especially when you expect better performance with higher costs. Feels like they're dropping the ball a bit.

I was clearing out some

I was clearing out some old subscriptions and accidentally canceled my Boosteroid one. Tried to get it back, but their support said it's impossible. They basically told me that once you cancel, there's no going back. Their site seems kinda outdated, not really equipped to handle many customers or offer flexible billing options. So now I have to wait until the current subscription expires and then buy a new one manually. It's frustrating, honestly. They should really work on making the process more user-friendly. Not a great experience this time around.

Using Boosteroid has been a

Using Boosteroid has been a total frustration. The service constantly lags and freezes, making it almost impossible to enjoy any game. We've contacted their support so many times but nothing gets fixed. Even with Boosteroid Ultra, which is supposed to connect us to better UK servers, we always end up on poor overseas ones. It's baffling how they can run a business with such a subpar product. And just so it's clear, our internet is top-notch with ultra-fast WiFi, 130+ mbps download speed, sub-20 ping rate, and 20mbps upload. The issue isn't on our end.

Playing on this platform has

Playing on this platform has been a bit of a rollercoaster. Sometimes the ping just skyrockets and it's super frustrating. And what's with the picture quality turning all soapy outta nowhere? Changing the language is a whole task since you can only do it through the panel, which is such a hassle. At 120 fps, things actually get worse – didn't expect that. My internet's top-notch, yet the booster keeps telling me it's not good enough. It’s really confusing. Fingers crossed the developers improve this soon because right now, it's pretty disappointing.

I can't believe how bad

I can't believe how bad the customer service was from this tech company. I wanted to extend my package, which you'd think they'd be happy about, right? But no, they said the only way was to renew it at a higher price once it expired. Thought maybe customer service could help, but they just told me there's nothing they could do and I had to pay more. It felt like they didn't care at all about keeping me as a customer. Honestly, really disappointed and frustrated with the whole experience.
