So, we might be finally getting DLSS on FH5.
Probably with the next update.

I hope so, that would boost the fps and image quality alot. But knowing Nvidia, i wouldn't be surprised if its DLSS3 exclusive. The game already runs pretty good, im getting 80+ fps at 4K maxed out. But more fps are always welcome .View attachment 1195501

Plus they might be able to implement it for us console peasants as well.I don't care about DLSS since it's limited to Nvidia RTX. I hope we see the AMD equivalent to DLSS since i can use it with my non RTX Nvidia card
Horizon 4 has been $20 for the regular seasonal/publisher sales for a while now, so accessibility in terms of cost might be a factor. Beyond that who knows.For no particular reason I've been observing the steam charts for FH4 and FH5 for the last few months and the information is interesting.
FH4
FH5
Both games tend to peak in concurrent players in the mornings (Pacific Time, I think) which makes sense in that its the time when both North America and Europe would have the most overlap in players.
More curiously, FH4 has a higher daily peak and a lower trough whereas FH5 tends to have less players but is more steady. I wonder if this is simply the case that more people own FH4? I doubt this because the all-time peak concurrent players of FH5 is double that of FH4 and FH4 did not get a steam release until well after it's initial launch. Either way, I'm surprised to see FH4 has more average and peak players than FH5 considering how old FH4 is and the fact that it isn't receiving any updates beyond the seasonal stuff. Perhaps the actual change in season has made FH4 a more compelling long term play? Yet it seems people tend to play FH4 for shorter durations than FH5. Maybe people are jumping on for a race or two for the daily/weekly goals and then closing out?
I wonder if Microsoft is satisfied with the engagement metrics of FH5? The optimistic side of me would think that these numbers would encourage them to change the formula for the next title to boost engagement.
Huge caveat - This is steam, a totally different userbase from console and probably not the audience the game is chiefly aimed at. Is there any publicly available XB user numbers?
DLSS 3 does still offer the same feature sets DLSS 2 offers and DOES WORK ON RTX 20 and 30 series GPUs. It is just the new "Frame Generation" Feature of DLSS 3 that requires a RTX 40 series GPU. "Frame Generation" is something that is an extra Toggle you can enable on top of DLSS "Super Resolution" upscaling.Considering it says "DLSS Frame Generation" I believe this is DLSS 3 and not any of the previous ones. This is targeting 8K gaming with the RTX 4090. Only time will tell if there'll be DLSS 2 or if we can use DLSS 3 for 4K or less
Something has gotten me really excited as of late, and it happens to be a mod that Playground Games has vetted and personally approved of.
This UI makes FH5 look more like a Forza Motorsport game, and I find this rather exciting. Sure, it's not bringing back fuel management or pit stops, but I really like what's there and what it does as it stands! Just having a boost gauge and tire temperature indicators right here on my speedo, not to mention both a Best and Last lap... and the lap deltas... and the handbrake indicator... Simply awesome to me.

I agree, some of these features should be in the base game! But I'm appreciative nonetheless.Somebody in the comments said PG even approved those additions as well. Now that doesn't mean they are going to outright add those features out of inspiration, but I would honestly love to have them in my game too.
It's details like these why I've come to really love PG as a developer. They're fun, hilarious and creative.I’m probably the last person to notice this, but I saw this little viewpoint/hut on top of a hill next to the circular crops in the southwest part of the map and had to check it out. The sign cracked me up. It says something like “Have we been seen by aliens? Come see the famous crop circles!”

Incredible! I've also seen a white Nissan Pulsar somewhere in Canada once as well. It's one of those cars I wish I could have irl, but I'm super glad we have it in Forza. Isn't it crazy that this thing used to be in GT? Dude, I remember when I first discovered it and driven it in GT2 as a kid. To finally have it again but in Forza, is SO, DANG, AWESOME!Spotted a Forza car recently! The 1990 Nissan Pulsar GTI-R!

I recently went back to FH2 and the world feels way more alive with the AI cars driving around. You even see the AI drivers you raced drive off after a race finishes. FH5 is a ghost town.Inspired by you, I reinstalled Horizon 2 and had a nostalgic run. I had forgotten the whole Road Trip aspect, where you'd drive to a location and then pick a championship based on the type of vehicle class. Oddly, my championship consisted of 4 races though.
You know what? I am taking some small comfort in this, so thank you.Well,
I've never seen it either, so you aren't the last person to notice this time.
You can just go Solo and have the Drivatars running around in FH5 too. Personally I rarely play solo since FH4, but I'm glad you still have the option to choose rather than playing only with them.I recently went back to FH2 and the world feels way more alive with the AI cars driving around.

If that helps, I've never seen that either, and that's despite a healthy hour count into this game.You know what? I am taking some small comfort in this, so thank you.
All right, I have just the soundtrack for this...The Trial this week is street racing with traffic on top of your useless teammates.
I've just posted the same thing in the weekly thread lol. It's awful this week.The Trial this week is street racing with traffic on top of your useless teammates.
Mmm so how bad it could be? It turns out, not bad at all! I was stuck with my base Sandman but all my teammates had their rides upgraded to C600, so I was the last place doofus, just content to watch the carnage they left behind and playing Mexican Minister of Defense against any stray AI's! Two easy wins!The Trial this week is street racing with traffic on top of your useless teammates.
