Relaxed, General FH3 Chat

I can't play the demo because 18gb would take about a day for me to download, and I don't live alone. That's real Australian authenticity.

If you can have different plates for each car I'll obviously be chucking [UTERUS] on any ute.

Sigh, to wait til launch :/

 

[Cowboy]

Boy, I'm sure glad I bought an XBOX instead of a PS4, this game looks amazing

Ohhh yeah. The hype is real. I've got to stop playing it, it's only going to make the next 2 weeks absolutely unbearable. I need MOAR. My wife gave me that "oh, okay, guess I won't see you around for a while" look and went to sleep. Sorry honey, that's just the tip of the iceberg I feel.

A few slight annoyances however but nothing major, I noticed there's barely any feedback in the triggers, especially the brakes, when compared to FM6, and it's kind of unsettling. I expected the Centenario to understeer like a pig, but I felt like the steering was a bit numb on the Maloo and GT350R, which is probably because they're bone stock and they tweaked the physics a bit to make it more accessible.

Still. 12/10 will play until the disc doesn't work. Then I'll buy it again.

Just a little thing on the demo, I didn't notice at first (dying to get in the cars!) but second time around when you choose your own name to be chosen, I didn't spot that you have to press R2 button (I think) for male/female long list of real names. I found mine on there so there must be a wide selection of real names rather than boss! 👍

 

[MockngBrd]

Finding it hard to drift on the gamepad, the snapback trying to counter is crazy. (BMW M4) ;(

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

This game will make you use a whole day to explore/drive all the roads. My god I can't wait for this game hopefully the Aventador and Aventador SV sound like the centenario. The only thing I don't like so far is how the red line bounces.

 

[-Fred-]

Speaking of nicknames, there's a "Bort" but no "Bart" which got a laugh out of me. God I'm old.

 

[ToyGTone]

I keep naturally driving on the right side of the road and getting into head-ons.

*drives around* "Um..Why those roundabouts have signs going to the left?"

Boy, I'm sure glad I bought an XBOX instead of a PS4, this game looks amazing

I looked two weeks back and i say it's worth it.

I probably ask too many silly questions but how did some cars have livery on them?

Spoiler: ignore me...

To spice things up a bit. See? Even offline, T10 don't want you to feel like you're driving/racing alone.

 

[Speedster911]

Is there any way to drive some of the other Euro, American and Japanese cars aside from the standard GT350, Holden, Silvia and M4?

There's the Ariel nomad in the bucket list challenge. But that's it.

 

[HBK]

Big pro : Environments seem way more diverse than FH2.

Big con : I'll have a hard time adapting to driving on the wrong side of the road

Everything else is as usual, beautiful, smooth as butter (even at 30), with great semi-realistic driving, loads of content, insanely good atmospheric conditions, and crappy overdone "festival" atmosphere (even if it seems toned down this time). Oh and the music rocks too, but that's the least you'd expect granted it's supposed to be a music festival.

The demo no, in the full game yes.

 

[willbsn13]

I really can't wait for this game.

 

[yabiggoose]

My son is also named Bort.

Ubi downloading it then?.. sorry this is what happens when people feed me lines.

I can't wait either. All that Ford goodness in my garage.

If they gonna add Porsches later on RWB kits are a must , o damn i cant wait for that.

 

[05XR8]

RWB also have these

Controls?
Quick question guys, if using a wheel can a controller also be used for (analogue view in-game) to control the drone mode and in-game menus using analogue sticks (rotating cars etc)? Or do you have to disconnect the wheel then re-connect the controller in such circumstances?

Audio Options?
The games audio seems to be good, can someone show or list the options available that we can adjust.
(asking regards tactile immersion)

Buy a controller or new console?
Heres a thing that came across my mind, the XB1S controller for PC is £50,
Fifa 2017 is £40 so easy £90 value. Yet a new XB1S with Fifa 2017 and a BUHD drive for only £160 more! That's a new console with BUHD drive 4K upscaling for a bargain price that it may well be tempting to get a new console and not just the controller for Windows 10 gaming, mmmmmm.

Also only having to buy the game once via digital download to play on both platforms, mmmm, mmmmm this really might take off well for them.

I will add forza motorsport 6 to your balancing, as to help you make a good decision.

ps. audio options on demo are good, iirc with different sliders for channels like car audio, tires, env. effects, music etc

 

[Mr Latte]

Thanks yeah, wanted to know what the sliders are. Not a big issue but likely similar to FM6
I seen a video of guy using wheel with controller for map so seems then both can be connected at once.
(Not sure if pad can allow analogue "look" when using wheel)

 

[430_Riviera]

My first thought on firing up the demo -

Check the xbox is still a ONE and hasn't been replaced with a TWO. Did we skip a console generation whilst I was asleep?

Looks unbelievable.

Drives excellently, going to be a major hour sucker...

Guys, i'm going to talk and share about something soon. I'm just trying to finish this up.

 

[gtuned]

Played the demo last night, bought the $100 edition.

God this game is beautiful and fun.

 

[doblocruiser]

Can someone tell me if the drone mode can also be used when your car is on the move or can it only have static shots of your own car? If you can drone while you control the car how does it actually work? Is there a replay system in place where the drone takes over the regular replays angles?

I have my actual name linked to my Xbox Account, so when I started it up, it automatically highlighted it from the get go. In the Female section
