Have they scheduled a release date? Does it feel very beta or is it quite polished?

Feels very polished IMO - but they clearly lifted large chunks of the Console games for this - but if it works then why not. I've had more fun with it then most games ive paid good money for..

Worth a go - its free anyhow.
 
Excellent news peeps, new Windows 10 update today to support Freesync/Gsync....and also the unlocking of frame rates :)


We’re listening – and acting

As a direct response to your feedback, we’re excited to announce the release today of new updates to Windows 10 that make gaming even better for game developers and gamers.

Later today, Windows 10 will be updated with two key new features:

Support for AMD’s FreesyncTM and NVIDIA’s G-SYNC™ in Universal Windows Platform games and apps
Unlocked frame rate for Universal Windows Platform (UWP) games and apps
Once applications take advantage of these new features, you will be able to play your UWP games with unlocked frame rates. We expect Gears of War: UE and Forza Motorsport 6: Apex to lead the way by adding this support in the very near future.

This OS update will be gradually rolled out to all machines, but you can download it directly here.

And also good news for UWP and MGPU maybe

Taking out our crystal ball

Looking further into the future, you can expect to see some exciting developments on multiple GPUs in DirectX 12 in the near future, and a truly impressive array of DirectX 12 titles later this summer and fall.

In the meantime, stay tuned to our blog and follow us on Twitter @DirectX12 for a post coming soon about DirectX performance!

Good, glad to see they are actually doing this.

Played a bit of this tonight, but I'm finding it hard to compare without playing it with a wheel. I need to give it a bit more time I think. The trigger haptics are pretty cool, and the handling seems okay, if a little bit wooden in places. Maybe I just need to try some more cars though!
 
Not currently. Windows Store games don't allow overlays, but Microsoft have got an FPS counter down as one of the features they are adding.

I'm a bit addicted to this, going for 3 medals in every event. Only a couple left.

Not true - try Dxtory http://exkode.com/dxtory-features-en.html

The free trial is fine and gives FPS overlay.

Cheers for that:) yes now i can see the FPS and its really quite strange the game is supposed to be locked @ 60fps but yet with everything on max apart from MSAA at x 2 @1440p the game runs at a pretty much constant 71/72 fps even in the rain mode :confused: so i guess we can expect much higher FPS to come at some point.
 
had a go of this earlier. seems bit easy mode graphics were niceish but not breath taking.

its a game that you just play arcade. if you enjoy that its fine.if you want a bit of depth its not that game.

I noticed this also with mirillis action OSD frame rate is around 70s on my 290 @1440p ultra preset.

DX12 ftw :D

What made you think a free game with just 6 tracks, 63 cars, and 12 Single Player only events would have depth?
 
Tried this - the steering damping is really irritating and no matter how much I play with the settings (dead-zones or trying the 'simulation' setting) I can't seem to get on with it.
