I'm impressed with Forza 5's load times on the series X. I'm not sure but it feels a bit faster than Forza 4.

Didn't they say already there weren't going to be any big announcements at the 20th anniversary thing? Wonder if they've shoved something in from realising either no-one's going to watch or everyone who does watch is going to be mad there was no announcement.

They said that before and then still made some big announcement, so who knows.

Fly Ricky posted:I’m holding off until I “finish” FH4 because I’m brokebrained. Heard you get some special cars or something for playing previous games, even going back to FH3. What’s that about? If you’ve played any of the forza games (including Motorsport) from the first horizon onwards, FH5 will give you the car from the game’s cover as a loyalty reward near the start.

Yeah I believe it does it by achievement data? Pretty sure you need one achievement to pop and you should be good.

I think they said that there wouldn't be any new game announcements, but didn't say anything about new features. I would be shocked if they don't announce new FPS Boost games to go along with new Xbox and Xbox 360 backward compatible games, and it has been like 18 months since resolution boost was announced.

For those playing Forza on an OLED with Dolby Vision, I've set the ingame brightness to 360 and the saturation to max and I think the game looks even better this way. Performance mode of course.

So here’s a random question re game share. One of my friends I play with had game share set up with a another friend of ours who passed away this last year (his ghost is out here kicking our asses in FH5 at least). Her wife is going to be getting an Xbox and they were wanting to do game share, but not looking to sever that connection to Kevin. Any ideas on if they have to sever or can they just do the game share on the new Xbox (whatever model that is going to be)?

Would I actually get much use out of a 144mhz monitor for playing the S on? A lot of what I'm seeing about current games includes a fps cap at 30 or 60.

Ruffian Price posted:If it's a Beam Gen2, look up the specifics for your TV's eARC support - the LG CX, for instance, only does it over HDMI2, the rest are regular ARC (and the TV reencodes the DD+ stream, adding to latency). If it's a Gen1, you're boned. Criminal that Sonos doesn't include passthrough in any of their bars. My TV doesn’t have earc so I guess I’m screwed either way? I have the gen 1 Beam. Does this audio lag happen with any other sound bars?

Shaman Tank Spec posted:I'm not super into driving games normally but Same. Fired it up last night just because everyone is talking about it and told my girlfriend this will probably be the only time I play it. But found myself really digging it. The driving isn’t as hard as I expected, the cars handle really nicely, especially for my drift-heavy driving style. And of course it’s gorgeous. Gamepass winning

I played Forza Horizon 4 only because I was told it would look nice on a One X, as I never play racing games. I've now put dozens of hours into 4 and am hours into 5 already and loving it. Over Christmas I'm just going to bounce between Halo and Forza with a big silly grin on my face. EDIT: Sorry, forgot to add, Xbox stays winning, Gamepass stays winning.

I have it installed on my series x and my PC's NVME drive, and the series x is loads like 2x as fast, feels as fast as a game cartridge in the old days tbh, I barely have any time to take sips of tea while loading into a new race.

One minor issue I have had with previous Horizon games also, but why make the radio stations just be mostly 'any radio station in America' programmed music stations? (And I realize the answer to this is likely 'a lot radio stations in Mexico do sound like that'). But like give me a variety of radio stations populated with exclusively actual Mexican artists.

The cowards should have at least sprung for enough licenses to have a dedicated ranchera station in gd Mexico, come on.

The Kins posted:Supposedly, they originally planned to do at least one all-Mexican-artists radio station, but they were talked out of it by their contacts and consultants in the country in favor of spreading Mexican artists across all the stations in the name of both realism and a better soundtrack. Por que no los dos?

LIVE AMMO COSPLAY posted:If you think you might be stuck with a last-gen console for a while, an external ssd might help. I just played this for the first time on my One X going through the first 3+ hours. I have it installed on an external SSD and I have no issues with these loading times, so I'd say it probably does indeed help a lot. Also it looks great on the One X, though I would prefer 60 fps of course.
