Forza Horizon 4

my m8 gave me a months game pass key he bought off cd keys for £2

When I activated it I got a extra month for free for turning on Recurring billing. Which I have since turned off.

Cool, they still on there for that price, grab that when 14 day trial runs out, presumably its not just first time users?

Yeah sadly, NOTE: This product only works with new accounts. went there soon as I read how much it was on here.
 
Haven't been so impressed by a game's graphics since Crysis.

Seriously I'm just in awe. I wonder if this engine could be used for other genres (the same developer is working on the next Fable, so I guess we'll see how well that turns out).

Only problem I have with is it won't start with RTSS on, and I cannot even create an exception as windows store programs are protected by who know what.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way in this game to make the clutch change to auto when switching from a manual H-pattern car to a car with paddles? Really grinds my gears (no pun intended) that i have to do this manually when using my wheel. I'd expect a game like this to auto-detect the car and change it for me (Doesn't do this in Forza 7 either).

Might be a stupid question but do I need Xbox live to play this with that game pass on the PC?
 
I thought you weren't buying it!? :D

I'm loving it tbh, my only issue is that I don't have enough time to sink into it!

I know right :D:D . Couldn't resist, thankfully it's loads better than FH3. Very arcadey but the visuals are simply incredible.

I can't believe how well optimised it is also. Running ultra with 4x msaa and hitting around 90fps to 110fps is fantastic.
 
Got about two hours in last night - absolutely epic game! Really really enjoying myself in this one.

Got the texture bug a few times where they fail to load, once in the first drive part where you go through the seasons. Had an error message and my car was reset on the road at 0mph (in the Senna).

Still not fixing the random crashing, got an hour in this morning and as soon as I reached a to buy a new cottage... crash!

Getting a black screen and a stuck loading bar, however the music was entertaining me whilst I stare at the screen in disappointment.

Apparently this has been identified and is due to be fixed at 3:30pm PDT? Waiting with bated breath.
 
My thoughts after 5 hours, bare in mind i've not gamed in a long time and did most of my gaming years ago and have not played other Forza's

Too much waffle, can't skip pointless talking.

What is with the endless suplly of rewards like I am some kind of reward obsessed junkie, rewarded for everything I do it's meaningless, drive like a maniac through feilds get about 5 perk points, constant influence points, reel spin rewards, I haven't done anything but drive like crap. Also no matter what you do in a race you get rewarded, come 7th thats fine, you will get almost as much as if you came first with a perfect run, the difference between the two is irrelevant as you are overloaded with rewards. Its quite patronising really, the psychology of this is weird, its akin to candy crush.

I came 4th in one race and thought ah ill revist that to get gold, NO NEED! gold cup awarded for 4th anyway! everyone gets a trophy, Gold for 4th!!!!. Doesnt matter, do as badly as you like still progress at almost the same pace.

I guess the rewind thing has been discussed to death but its new to me, just laughable, whats happened to actually trying things again, that sense of achievement that comes from perseverance, trial and error, I guess that is lost on the hipster generation who would rather spend time dressing up thier character in skinny jeans and customising thier dancing....

Aside from that the controls are ace, super slick, ive never played a racer that holds solid frame rate so well when 8 cars munch through a congested turn, looks brilliant, lots to do.

Will play for a few weeks on gamepass but cannot seriously see why anyone would spend 80quid on ultimate when it can be had for free, makes no sense, what difference does it make if you got a few new coloured cars and a new cape for your character
