Does this have wheel support on the PC? and if so is it better than the terrible implementation in Apex?

I'm guessing it's likely to be the same, which is a shame :(

it does, but its not great. FFB is pretty much non existent, wheel feels very light in your hands but its ok. It's playable but to be honest, this game is best played from chase camera with a controller anyway. It's very arcade like.
 
lol I know, I'm a sim racer cockpit player, but it doesn't feel right in this game. Especially when you're racing out in rural areas, it's so hard to see what's coming over the hills and bumps lol.
 
that does look better SS-89, but nothing like what I get. I know you have DOF, but the car is still blurry. Seeing similar posts now around various places as well, this game is a strange one. What works for one, might not work for another lol.

Gotta say though, I'm having so much fun, oh my goodness these visuals are something else, that skyline and the lighting is something else.

Another one without any DOF or shutter speed adjustments (Stationary shot)



Can't say I've noticed any issues with photomode

See, to me mate that's blurry..the image in game is a lot nicer than the photomode in my opinion, to me it's just not a nice photo tool, it looks way better than that on XB1. Go look at some pics.

Here's a comparison I just done.

I took the plunge and got the Ultimate Edition. What level of performance can I expect with the system in my signature? I only have a 1080p monitor currently.

no idea mate its luck of the draw it would seem. I've seen people with same sorta specs saying they getting 80fps or there about, yet the next person says between 30fps and 40fps.

I've even seen people with 1080s saying they have 30fps, but others with 960's saying they geting 60fps solid lol. It's so random it would seem.
 
haha I did as well literally at exactly the same time, you must have been posting right when I did lol. It confused the hell out of me, as I was trying to work out how my pics were posted twice lol.
 
God this game is epic, so good it really is.

And I've no idea how, I've not changed any settings but now I'm sat at 80fps and 60 in demanding areas. This game does some strange things, and I'm sure performance changes each time you load in the game.

Westie answer your xbox chat!!!!! Lol. You fancy some coop campaign tonight?
 
Talk about a genuine mindblown moment. Go to the Maroondah Rainforest at dawn. The sun coming up through the trees, your headlights catching the cats eyes, the road signs and the trees is the nicest thing I've seen in a while.

https://www.reddit.com/r/forza/comments/549kjo/solution_for_vip_dlcs_missing/

For fixing the missing VIP/DLC for ultimate. Trying now will report back.

EDIT: if you bought directly its 3 business days. If you bought with voucerhs/credit it's an instant refund.

EDIT 2: Done, that was painless. All there now. No need to re-download either.
Click to expand...

I tried that with 2 different support people, both declined the refund and pointed me towards the Xbox support forum for DLC, and there I was to provide information on the missing items from the Ultimate pack.

******* laughable it really is, even though I provided them with links for the fix, explained many others have done this and are now seeing what they paid for in the game. Provided screenshots etc. Getting pretty narked at this mess right now.
 
Really depends who you get on support, the two I spoke to earlier said they weren't refunding or other nonsense even though I provided links and pictures of forum posts resolving the issue.

I'll try again tomorrow, I'd like to know how I will be compensated if I can't get a refund.

And I'll update the OP tomorrow with gamertags
 
VIP update.

Looks like a fix is incoming. I put my name forward, got an email to help solve the issue but I was in a game and didn't see the email come on live. Oh well least it looks like good news.

Hi all,

In order to get to the bottom of what is going on here, we're looking for three volunteers who are still experiencing this issue with VIP not working on PC. We'll then work with you directly via email to get to the bottom of what is happening.

If you are interested then please drop me a PM with your Xbox Live ID and your email address and we'll get started! Any hands? :)

So, I was one of these people who volunteered, and I thought I'd let you guys know the good news, we got VIP working, fix should be coming soon.

Good news everyone.

We'd like to let the community know that the store team has root-caused the issue that is causing some players to not have DLC working in-game on Windows 10 PC's. The fix has been verified using a few players, and they are preparing a script that will correct the problem for all impacted players.

Think its around lvl23 mate, I can set one up tomorrow morning if you cant as I'm past the required rank, will update the thread and OP with details. I don't mind either way.

Had some fun coop campaigning with Josh tonight.

VIP is now fixed for many, my status has been updated and I have my car packs.

On a side note, the OCUK club has been created, set initially to "invite Only" not sure the best way to set it up at the moment, don't want any old riff raff entering. So if you want in, request and i'll throw you an invite (when I figure out how to invite people) will have to play it by ear and see what works best.

Need your GT Sega Man Dave ;)

ok few more invites sent out for the club. It takes a while for my new friends to appear ingame on my invite list, it's not me ignoring you, it's just being slow chaps.

And yes Gravy, all my VIP and DLC plus the shiny crown is now showing. Hopefully it wont be to long for you. Have you tried exiting the game, Xbox app and maybe a restart?
 
Invite option is now missing from Club screen, looks like things might be a bit temperamental for a bit with the new release. I'm not ignoring anyone, just bear with me.
