Official page has pics with in car view. It also apparently supports wheels+pedals, so I might try it out.
That's good to hear after how bad The Crew 2 was.i tried this out today since i have Ubisoft+ right now, and dang did it surprise me. at first it was pretty underwhelming, and shamelessly rips off Horizon, but give it at least an hour or so and the strong points will be obvious. number one, the sounds... my god the sounds!! every single car just sounds absolutely *chef's kiss* and while i'm sure not every single car had its real-life counterpart recorded, i can say for SURE that the vast majority of them actually *are* recorded, even the DeLorean with its pathetic, wimpy little V6
physics and controls on gamepad are quite good, not up to Horizon's level but i my low expectations were definitely surpassed easily. with all the assists turned off it feels reasonably natural and "realistic" in the sense that you can trail brake to turn in, heavy cars feel heavy, that sort of thing.
the best part IMHO is that the "cross country" offroad style racing is WAY more fun in this compared to Horizon. the physics seem to lend themselves much moreso to soft surfaces like mud and sand and that makes me actually look forward to those types of events instead of groaning and rushing to get it over with.
worst part by far is the dialogue which somehow manages to one up Horizon in nuclear-grade cringe.. to the point where i'm not even kidding when i say all of the lines from the "hostess" character literally feel both composed and spoken by AI, and i honestly would not be surprised to find it WAS. jesus h christ, just leave this shit ouf of the game for fucks sake
The first game is pretty decent, I just could never get used to the controls.I guess there's a sucker born every minute, I bought it and the first one for like $3 a couple months ago.
you should give motorfest a try then. i could never get into the first two games because of the controls, and motorfest is a huge improvement on that front.
idk, i guess we're just gonna have to wait for someone to post their thoughts on it
just curious, what makes you say this is nowhere near FH5 in terms of gameplay?
Windowed Borderless uses whatever resolution your desktop is set to.
I am aware. I usually keep desktop at 1440P as that is my monitor’s native resolution. However, this new crop of lazy games don’t let me have proper full screen and scaling in games only. I will keep desktop at 4K to see if I can live with it but changing desktop resolution prior to launching these new lazy games is really annoying (Hogwarts, Motorfest, Starfield).
what about upgrading to a native 4k display?
Waiting for 32" OLED 4K for past 2 years (22/23). I bought my current monitor in 20 as a stop gap but then the 32 inch OLED never came. Tried the 55 inch OLED in 2020 as well and played on it for a bit but usually don't have it hooked up as multi monitor displays with games typically messes up things especially if the TV is not on and all the quirks that come with it about resolutions etc. Also I don't have the 55 inch on my desk - means I have to use a controller.
Get a gigabyte m32u and be happy. That 32" oled is still years away. They can be had for $600-650 on sale. If you want smaller, the m28u can be had for $450-500 on sale. Both are superb 4k 144hz ips panels.
All games run in windowed borderless on Windows 11 even when a game has an "exclusive fullscreen" option.
He has a CX 55 next to the 32G75 in his signature. Don't understand why he wouldn't use it.
Stuttering isn't caused by display sync, or lack thereof. Do you mean judder or tearing?
yeah it does seem to have some weird frame pacing problem if you drop below 60. btw, that seems odd that your 4090 would even drop below 60. are you running higher than 4k (scaling or something)? if so, try dropping the volumetric quality to medium, and turn down SSAO+ to just 'SSAO'. You won't even see a difference in gameplay but it seems those settings have exponential performance impact
What are you suggesting with this cherry picked screenshot? Look at the side mirror. Not even 2005, because we had working mirrors long before that in games.
It is possible that it is emphasized by ultrawide. And it didn't look that bad in free roam, although I had issues even there seeing the turn in point for corners, but in races I was totally blind to where I was going until I switched to the external camera.
yeah the lack of mirrors is dumb. i'm not wasting my time with your "cherry picked" bullshit, so i'm out. peace
I think M76 forgets what 2006 games looked like. That looks perfectly playable to me.
shhh, let him have this moment to shine
Yeah, go ahead cherry pick more screenshots, because you can't argue with any of my complaints. I knew you were bad faith from the get go, hence why I said what are you suggesting. But of course you will never actually address any actual complaints.
