Relaxed, General FH3 Chat

[McLaren]

Is there anyway to contact MS about that? I did play the latest Halo for a couple weeks doing Firefight with friends. I had to delete it though, to make room for Horizon 3 to download, so I wonder if that's why I haven't gotten a code?

 

[Vic Reign93]

Alright so i came back from the place where i was supposed to rent one of the Halo games for the Warthog and... they didn't had them.

So my last chance is hoping someone answers one of the posts i did on some Facebook groups and tell me that he can give it to me for the day

Enough of that, let's go kill some time be removing the dust on the Dreamcast and play some SF Rush 2049! I'll try to get the perfect setup for the Bruiser before doing one in Forza Horizon 3 with the Cuda. And maybe i'll play some Crazy Taxi 2 too!

Check out Reddit, some people are requesting it there too, wait for the opportunity and strike.

How much power has the superbike swap?

It added 160hp to the 30 or so hp reliant. So 190+.

 

[Luminis]

As someone who's stuck with a Smart Car IRL, I'd really appreciate it if that thing was added back into FH3, along with a super bike engine. The 1300cc Hayabusa engine with a turbo ought to do the job

Give us a CBR 1100 engine and I can recreate the "Smart Arse" Smart car I seen at a car show last month.

Nevermind, I was dumb.

Since it's supposed to be released in 24 Hours for me, I decided to cheat a little bit since i'm a bit too impatient...

I have gone 6 Hours ahead, thanks Australia!

How does that work, if it shows here on the other image @McLaren posted that Australia gets it on the 23rd at 2pm?

How?

 

[ImaRobot]

How?

If anything, its probably just a timezone change, while still reflecting his actual geographical location. The game releases globally at the exact same time, so it's not like he's going to be getting it early.

As far as I know the USA west coast has it set as the earliest time at 9pm PST on 9/22/16.

I don't think it works like that. Games always unlock at midnight in the local region.

Not this release. Like I said, mine unlocks at 9pm pst on the 22nd.

That's insane. Wonder what UK will be.

Edit: Jesus I am blind.

Since this is early access, they probably wanted everyone to have it at the same time I would guess. I imagine the actual release will flow how you explained it.

It works out to my benefit as it gives me some time to try it before bed on Thursday night

How did you change your timezone on your Xbox ?

 

[McLaren]

Changing your region doesn't do anything but change the time zone shown for release. As if people have never tried that idea before.

 

[Mr Latte]

Id buy that for a $1 errr sorry I meant $100
Look forward to hearing how well this works across both platforms and being able to just log in and gain your saves etc is really neat. Also cross format playing with friends, damn that is cool as well.

Tempted to buy as well but likely wont have a GPU till early October and had to buy another SSD for this coming. Keen to find out how this runs on a HD530 onboard i7 CPU to tide me over.

Business as usual then. Makes no difference to me as I will be playing it friday afternoon.

 

[Techy]

Something seems not right in that. PC looks very jagged still. Darn want better comparisons than that.

Annoying as heck that the HDR situation on PC has not been clarified. Hoping that indeed 60fps HDR @4K is possible.
HDMI 2.0b supports it, so I am assuming someone with the correct 2.0 type cable, a compatible graphics card and display should be able to enjoy it in such bliss. Knowing the PC industry they will likely just complicate the whole thing or it may come in a later patch if not on release.

Yeah that does seem a bit strange. As far as I know, Forza Apex has an MSAA option.

It should be supported. The more recent GPUs support HDR.
Also have the consider the panel. Some HDR TVs deliver HDR better than others, which is my issue with HDR at the moment.

EDIT

No clue how this guy got access to the game on PC

Midnight local time but which ? Not the same in the US, Europe or Australia ..

 

[JC_Dude]

I guess it unlocks on midnight wherever you are.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

The game unlocks at midnight everywhere, as in when it turns midnight in each region.

 

[McLaren]

It doesn't. It unlocks at 11:00PM tomorrow night for me, which supports @ImaRobot's release time of 9:00PM because he's 2 hours behind me.

The game releases at the same time everywhere for early access folks.

Yeah seen that vid, good quality.
Your right that many HDR TVs have compatibility but do not have the capability to fully deliver the 10bit Rec 2020 wide colour gamut. They may also be restricted in the quality of highlights they can display with reduced nits.

It currently IS a minefield as also many do not support HDR in game mode. Panasonic have some that will as does Samsung but not sure about others in the UK at least. Really it seems to get the full effect of HDR any TV needs to be a UHD PREMIUM model or of same level of performance to make full usage of it. Looks like it will be next year before the specs for such are in the mid price ballpark as currently it is more the higher end models that can.

Scroll down to the list on this link. It is one of the better review sites for 4K and Gaming displays. I want to see someone with a BIG 4KTV showing the game also with 21:9 custom resolution.

Is Forza 6 Ultimate Edition Worth it?

 

[DJTHEKING]

Yay i finally got a Warthog code!

But when i tried to install it it gave me an error 0x000000e and now the icon is black. I'm not touching it until i find a way to fix that.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Is Forza 6 Ultimate Edition Worth it?

Yes if you want more cars.

 

[Kitten]

Yes if you want more cars.

Are those cars exclusive to the Ultimate Edition?

 

[Boxout]

Are those cars exclusive to the Ultimate Edition?

No, you can buy the DLC packs + VIP pack separated, but it would cost more to buy them individually.

 

[McLaren]

Are those cars exclusive to the Ultimate Edition?

The Motorsports All-Stars & VIP cars are also bundled with the Deluxe Edition. The Ultimate Edition includes the Car Pass & iirc, the early access perk.

As of right now according to BADNED, the All-Stars pack is bundle-only.
