NVIDIA SHIELD - Working!

This has nothing to do with the Nvidia Shield but i can play ff14 from work on my Galaxy 10.1 tab. I can use either wifi or 3g 4g connection using a program called kainy.

How well does that work for you? i gotta galaxy tab 2 10.1, i wouldnt expect to do anything hardcore while playing remotely, but if i can craft or something at work that would be awesome lol

this is amazing looking, I wonder how good it would work with the VPN setup. That should be introducing a serious amount of latency. I would be interested if anyone who has this running could comment on the VPN running on a strong cell network. I get about 20/20 on my cell with a 100ms ping using it as a hotspot.

Just bought an Nvidia Shield because of this thread, and also because I was trying to find a device to play XIV desk free. I believe Nvidia owes you a solid!

...unless you are from Nvidia. In which case this was an extremely clever sales pitch

edit: and by "just bought" I mean I just left my office to walk 45 minutes to the nearest store that had one and back

This is rather nifty. I won't be buying a shield off this alone but if I see other uses then I may just go in, definitely an amazing concept I can't lie.

It would be nice to play FFXIV outside on the lawn.

It really is hard to describe just how good it is without seeing it hands on. I just completed the main story line, playing exclusively on the shield.

Additional information:

You don't actually have to use borderless windowed mode. When using full screen however, keep in mind that if you lose full screen it will kick you off on the shield (or in rare cases may put you back in the steam screen). Do NOT relaunch steam unless you are sure it isn't still running. Many times a few alt-tab cycles on your PC keyboard will square you away.

Other notes: I have an iPad and I am using it with an app called AirKeyboard or something like that so I can type on chat windows, as needed.I had varying success with a Bluetooth keyboard paired to the shield but I kept hitting the windows key, which would boot the shield off. I plan on picking up a different Bluetooth keyboard and trying again.
