Hmmm I have the latest Windows build but it's asking me for 60GB worth of space.

I don't fancy having to redll the whole game again.

Mine is just doing a 1.89GB download luckily, so yours does sound like an issue.

Clicked dll just incase, although it wanted 60gb free it actually only dll'd the 2GB patch.

M$oft ftw! :rolleyes:

The patch is only 1.89GB.
For some reason though Windows insists on you having 60GB free to download a 1.89GB patch.

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:03

1.89GB for me, it will mention 60GB.

Microsoft are just the worst. Mine is also saying 60GB and I've confirmed I have the latest version of Windows 10.

You'd never get this with Steam.

Edit: There is no way I can free up 60GB of space on my SSD! The game is already taking up 60GB, I have 17GB free, and around 40GB of other games. UGH.

I'm looking forward to feedback from those who have issues and if they've been reduced/fixed with the update.

No change for me, still takes a couple of tries to get past the splashscreen and the stutters and drops in the city are still there. Not really disappointed, that's exactly what I was expecting

If they released a patch that destroys Windows Store, it'd probably start running perfectly

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:05

Is yours saying 60GB when you pick a drive to install, or is it installing 60GB when the download starts after a while? It'll give a total downloaded/to download.

Just telling me I need to select a drive with 60GB. I can't get to the download, and therefore cannot play the game. Why don't they just pack it in and admit Steam is what everyone wants to use on PC.

Now I have to uninstall DiRT and at least 1 more game just to update this game :rolleyes:

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:16

Only got that SSD as listed? assuming you're on the desktop.

After the update my xbox controller wasn't detected.. "press enter" stayed even when I tried xbox buttons.. please no.

Phew, replugging it helped.

I also have an external RAID enclosure, but that also doesn't have 60GB of free space.

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:18

Ah gotcha. What a bummer.

zola25 · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:21

I'm actually finding it more stuttery than prior to the patch. The core affinity trick used to take care of that, and although it still helps it's certainly worse for me than pre-patch. MSAA doesn't appear to be working properly now either.

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:24

The lag/pausing in the upgrade menus is still persistant for me. Go to tires for example, scroll along.

You'll see what I mean. They MUST have seen that when they were testing surely??

Amatsubu · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:26

Yeah, the menus go to like 20fps for me.
And it actually feels like there's a bit more stuttering on the main street in Surfers Paradise.

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:31

Yeah just seen a vid from reddit on that.. I'll jump in, fps counter on and edit this once I've had a play.

Supernova · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:33

So I found a way to force it to update even without 60GB of the drive free.

1. Open Windows Store and go to FH3 page.
2. Launch the game from the start menu.
3. When you press continue it says "Update required... etc."
4. Alt+F4 to close the game.*
5. Download begins in the store.

*It might also work if you press A to continue instead of Alt+F4, I just happened to do that.

Its smooth for me but not been to Surfers yet to check!

chaosophy · 4 Oct 2016 at 19:59

Before the patch I had maybe one time when the game crashed, since the patch I've had one crash and two bluscreen reboots. :mad:

Digital X · 4 Oct 2016 at 20:01

Jumps between 35/44 on fps at surfers for me. Still noticing a stutter, nothing dramatic has changed at all.

sgavan · 4 Oct 2016 at 20:12

Mine still had stuttering, a bit better but crashed to the desktop twice so just got a refund, don't want to wait and hope it gets sorted soon, shame as I quite liked it but for £50 not worth the hassle
