A: You can share your feature requests and feedback in the GeForce NOW app or via
Ask Us Here
in Member Center. Our product and support teams read all feedback submitted, and your input helps drive new features and additions.
Q: Why does it says "downloading" sometimes when I am in the rig?
A: There are some games with a great amount of DLCs, so it will take some time to download on the cloud for the first time you play this game. Sometimes when the update patch is considerably large, it will take some time to download as well. Take Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as example:
- Regular process: Search for Witcher 3: Wild Hunt → hit "Play" → bind your Steam account / log in to Steam → Game starts automatically / Click "Start Game" to have fun!
- With major updates and DLC downloading: Search for Witcher 3: Wild Hunt → hit "Play" → bind your Steam account / log in to Steam → Get into the game and start downloading → Once downloading is complete, click "Start Game" to have fun!
