Remij 4,682 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Ok... this is by far the nicest looking racing game I've ever seen. God damn. Runs perfectly smooth too. Some benches I just took.. 4K Ultra 5K completely maxed (above ultra settings) The lighting effects are so much better now.. and the headlights finally cast shadows on the other vehicles I'm gonna test out 4K maxed out and see how it compares to 5K. I wonder if I can reach 60fps with it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tears of the Cows 1,211 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Not a knock really bc fh2 looks pretty good, but on the base x1 this game looks identical. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tears of the Cows 1,211 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) Gameplay is signicantly better tho. One cool thing, I hit a barrier and went straight into a lake. But was able to keep driving. Would have expected to bounce off the sand bags. Control/handling seems way way better too. Might be the car tho Edited September 13, 2018 by ghostz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,636 Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Control is much better . Crashing thru the cement blocks is satisfactory Graphics are a good bit better than fh2 and 3 . Not a huge leap but better for sure . Also seems they almost eliminated pop in . Shadows still pop a bit but I didn't noticed any foilage pop Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It looks a bit more jaggy than 2 but there’s way more effects Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MalaXmaS 648 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Just tried it. 4k HDR goodness. TCHBFR 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And with graphical settings that will be higher across the board than the XBX settings. everything from motion blur, reflection quality, foilage density, water reflection quality, and particle quality. I even downloaded the 28GB demo in about 18 minutes on my computer. With just three clicks, open MS Store, click on the front page banner, and click to download. Smooth experience on the PC, all around. Edited September 13, 2018 by jehurey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Driving a Rally Raid Mini on the Australian beach and hitting a pebble and doing a 180 was frustrating af. In here at least the raid truck from the demo has more weight and can actually go over anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smooth experience on the PC, all around. Surprisingly I will say the w10 store handles this one well . But a 1060 doesn't come close to Xbox X in this game . I get a drops at the beginning of the race regardless of setting and the occasional Forza horizon lock up that happens on Xbox too is harder on my PC . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 4,682 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I absolutely love the demo. It's great. I will say though that this restarting after changing some settings is annoying as fuck.. the worst part being that it defaults to YES so if you accidentally click the button you have to wait for the game to restart. lmao. Now that wouldn't even be so bad if you didn't have to sit through the intro Playground Games and MS Studio videos every time. Also, why have to repeat the opening race every time? Once we beat it, why not just start us at the festival and if we want to do it again let us select it. The graphics (especially the lighting) are definitely better imo over FH3. It's not the biggest jump in the world though. Just more refined and the dynamic lighting on the cars from the headlights is really impressive. I'm so glad that's in. My only nit-pick with the graphics currently is that I wish they'd give us the option to push the foliage distance out even further. Some hillsides can look a bit flat because the foliage isn't drawn in yet. The controls are nice and tight. It was TOO responsive in the beginning until I turned all assists off and drivatar difficulty to PRO. Now it feels perfect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teh_Diplomat 2,054 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 For some reason I get the following issues: Forza tells me I need to be signed into a Profile, and Xbox Live says it's unable to connect.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also try signing in to the app before opening the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,585 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 The game is so close to release and I have so many other games to play atm that I'll prob give the demo a miss and just wait a little longer to play the actual game. Good to hear such positive impressions though, although was there ever really any doubt. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
