I launched the game yesterday to see the update, very nice indeed. Most of my performance issues are gone, it detects my g27 finally and I can use the controller with the wheel. Upgrade shop is still very laggy though.

size is 1080p but after you take the photo it renders it so It looks like its upscaled.

well my friend thought he was fine too however I asked him to send me a pic and it was blurry as hell, so you might not even realize it. I'm running it on 4k using DSR the difference is huge, photomode has less than 720p

photomode is still broken :fp: oh well, the biker update is out I won't be playing much anyway. And bf1 is coming out in less than 3 weeks

I hope the awful laughter tracks are not part of the show.

how about they fix the game before dlc comes out. call me mad.

hmm good idea will try that, should also check positive camber and adjusting the rollbars.

has anyone found a nice set up in order to reduce grip? I've found rally tires on overpowered cars work pretty nicely.

well it's more to do with policies. Microsoft probably has a fairly short leash on turn10 and other devs as well.

it's not so much the load but it tries to connect to the main server each time which causes spikes thus the stutters. These are identical issues to lalalala forge which is no coincidence since they both use the cancerous microsoft platform. There are obviously other DRM methods but as I've mentioned instead of investing millions of dollars in new DRM systems they could spend it on making the service/game better. Piracy is not a consumer problem, it is a service issue. Recent DRMs use the encryption system which decreases the performance in most games.

yep, found the source of the stuttering problem. It's our good ol friend DRM. The encryption system is abusing the CPU just like lalalala forge, they have the same CPU telemetry! And that is a known issue in the forge. So microsoft is currently making refunds if you like. They said they were aware of the issue. Here's a detailed thread if anyone is interested: FH3 stuttering cause found : forza Lets be honest DRM is no good for anyone, people who pirate games are not gonna suddenly start paying for them instead this devalues the experience for people who paid for the game. It has been like this for years, I really hope microsoft will fix this thing.

Hmm that's not the case with mine, seems ok here, Aaanyway now that I've had a chance to play it with a wheel and after about an hour of tweaking and setting everything up I was able to do some races and cruise around a bit. Let me start with the wheel support, well tbh there isn't a proper support for g27 yet, it doesn't recognize it as a g27 but a default wheel which isn't actually that bad. The ffb needs a little work but it's a lot better than the crew. Thankfully the clutch and the h-shifter works so that on its own is just incredible. Shifting those gears in the shelby gt while revving the engine (which actually vibrates the wheel) is fantastic. The physics are ok, nothing amazing but it is enjoyable much closer to fm6 than fh2 was I'd say though, Sounds are incredible as always, can't complain Visuals are great as usual however I did notice a lighting/shading problem, everywhere is a bit too dark which I think is tied to the dynamic weather system so not really sure what's going on there. Another issue is the photomode. For some reason it's incredibly blurry I believe it decreases the resolution automatically. People have suggested the drone mode which apparently works better so I'll try to get that tonight and hopefully post some pics. There are some bugs here and there and I'm pretty sure online connections are incredibly buggy which is expected during the first weeks. But with a few patches this game is 10/10. I'm going back in just hit me up on xbox messages --- Post Updated --- yep photomode is definitely broken, and since you cannot take nice shots with the drone I won't be posting any until this thing gets fixed. Aside from that, the game constantly stutters whenever there's a need for a connection with the server, might be my internet but at times it's unplayable especially in the upgrade shop. I'd say this game needs at least another month to polish. Way too early to release it at this state.

the vsync issue is common in most games, I always recommend using the vsync from nvidia control pannel (preferably fast sync) and turning off game's vsync. I don't really understand what you mean by 'inverted', do you mean turning them off turns them on or turning on fps turns on the vsync?

Finally got a chance to start up the game and play the first bit, can confirm it runs at 50fps with everything on ultra @ 3840 X 2160. Not true 4K but it's DSRs highest setting. I've turned down the MSAA to 2x and got 60 fps again without compromising the visuals too much. Photos + review with wheel to come tonight

I love the fact that you felt you needed to explain that :cheeky: yeah I'll join you guys, I'm also down for some cruising on sunday, I'm still away atm :(

looks like I won't be playing it until sunday :( I'm gonna head home briefly for like 5 mins maybe I'll give a quick run then.
