Forza Horizon 3 just shown at E3

I thought with DX12, drivers didn't really matter so much now?

.:MBK:. · 20 Sep 2016 at 23:14

Still a console port, probably going to matter. Though fair play getting hot fixes out prior to launch, may be a sign they are serious about this.

Just noticed the Forza Horizon spec lists whilst it pre-loads state: DirectX Feature Level 11

At £50 to £80 they can shove it. Sad times when there are plenty happy to bend over and take one from microshaft. Apex is not well optimized either.

. . . and it's braking, not breaking ffs!

Really? It's up to you of course but are you saying a game that may well last someone hundreds of hours for less than an average night out is them "bending over"?

People talk like £50 is a massive sum of money now, it's so odd to me that people get offended by what is 4-6 hours of work to pay for.

Official forum is going mental, apparently there's a bug with the pre-load, comes up with an error code. The word on the forum was to Uninstall and reinstall but now ppl can't access the game in library to pre load. Oh dear, not a smooth one this.

I'd say don't rush into it yet, wait till tomorrow.

MS never fails to frakk things up. Never. Everyone who buys this and gets horrible experience with windows store deserves what they get.

I really never had any major problems with them,i had more problems with Steam/Origin/Uplay tbh
Forza 6 thing went very smoothly,no trouble at all

Servers tho very slow,probably lots of people downloading,no surprise here,as size is 49gb

Is the preload for all versions or just for deluxe and ultimate?

V_R · 21 Sep 2016 at 07:19

My preload is all done and ready to go! :cool:

In other news, some screenshots from the PC version along with some pics of the settings.

MUST RESIST.....NOT PRE ORDERING.......HELP.......ARGGGG

TonyTurbo78 · 21 Sep 2016 at 08:01

Do it....reviews are calling it a gaming masterpiece. Not just one of the best games at the moment, but one of the best games ever.

Does that help

tehehe

Sargatanas2511 · 21 Sep 2016 at 08:04

Looks great to me! I am just waiting on Amazon releasing my key then I will get on with the process of downloading it.

Haha dammit!

But seriously my main concern is I'll be playing a lot of FIFA 17 and BF1 soon so worry I'll not get enough playtime in to warrant the £80 let alone the £50 if I wait till next week for standard version.

Gonna be tough to avoid when these PC opinions start flying in though

Mario · 21 Sep 2016 at 08:16

Preloaded..now if only VPN would work

TonyTurbo78 · 21 Sep 2016 at 08:41

Do we know when we can start playing on Friday?

Sargatanas2511 · 21 Sep 2016 at 09:03

When in doubt, assume it'll be 11:59.59pm! I Think I heard midnight EST which would be 5am here though.

According to this thread

"Game unlocks at 12:01 AM EST globally for both PC and Xbox One"

Which is 5am over here.

I think I feel sick on Friday.
