What does /v/ think of this? Or does /v/ not play racing games?
>>341631412
Only reason I'm on 10 now. For horizon that is. First racing game that peaked my interest. Maybe it's because it's not track limited
>>341631587
Horizon is on PC?
>>341631412
veteran racing cuck here. modern racing games have no story / proper career / any incentive to progress... in gt4 on ps2 you needed to make money to buy cars n shit and drive new ones.....modern racers everything's unlocked
>>341632148
3 will be
>>341632270
That's fucking wrong though
It runs and looks great, and that's all the indication I need that Horizon 3 is going to be perfect on PC.
>>341633016
Isn't Horizon just a sim racer though? NFS but with the forza name?
>>341634005
>sim racer
>Horizon
>NFS but with forza
>NFS is a sim racer
I hope you had an aneurysm while typing this out because I'm fucking about to.
>>341634005
Horizon is their open world arcade side series you dolt. >>341634193
Why should I when I already have Assetto on PC and pCars on PS4?
>>341634193
Shit, I meant arcade. And regular Forza is simcade.
I genuinely didn't mean to say sim, I think I had a stroke.
>>341635446
Then to answer your question, yes it is. It's not a sim racer and the handling is slightly different from the mainline Forza games. Still, it's not completely silly and they kept it fairly close to the originals which I like, because I could never understand arcade physics too well.
>>341631412
Forza 6's gameplay is apparently much worse than 4's from how it felt to me. Horizon 3 looks good though, hope it doesn't run like garbage like Apex does.
>>341635884
So it's not the PRESS X TO DRIFT shit that you get in a lot of these sorts of games? I can't stand drifting in games the majority of time, it never seems to be as fun as people seem to think it is.
Pretty good.
>>341631412
Is there a livery editor in this one
>>341636073
Yeah, not like Saints Row 3's "hold x to drift" mode. Feels very smooth and intuitive but still leaves enough room for skillful driving.
For a neutral, which is the better option, Gran Turismo or Forza?
>>341636073
Forza 3 and 4 were my favourite games ever to drift in, and it had the best drifting community to boot. The drifting mechanics I believe are identical in Horizon 3, but the game lacks the vehicle finetuning that the main games have so I don't think you can specifically make drift setups.
It's fairly regular handling that works like you'd expect it to. No silly X to drift.
>>341631412
there are much better racing games around
>The head of Turn 10 and Playground were hinting there's going to be a third Forza series at E3
What's it going to be, lads?
>>341636049
>hope it doesn't run like garbage like Apex does.
Set your settings to custom -> Dynamic on everything, switch AA to FXAA and make sure target framerate is 60FPS. Just leaving it on a preset will just go for whatever settings will max your rig while setting it all to Dynamic will get it running 60FPS on a toaster.
>>341636236
>no livery editor or online
>>341631412
Once you've thrown an actual sports car around a deserted forest backroad at 90 mph, racing games can feel a little stale. Except for F-zero GX, that shit still gets my knuckles white.
>>341636512
Forza Underground
>>341636312
I hated 4's drift community, most people I played against sucked and kicked anyone who didn't drive an S class rice burner. No appreciation for nuance.
>>341636512
Dynamic you say... I didn't try that before but I did try lowest settings and still had some issues. Still my problem with the overall mechanics still stand, it feels much more boat like than 4 did, and the hitboxes for collisions are all off.
>>341636312
>>341636923
Wait, there's a videogame drift community? The fuck?
>>341637653
Yeah, like all things in video games. I have another thread open right now about it.
>>341636923
Odd. When I played there were shitters here and there but they got votekicked if they finished the race early. I loved that everyone just waited at the finish line patiently. Can't imagine that in any other game.
Admittedly I drove an S-class tuned S15, but that's because the extra power made it easier for me to correct my mistakes mid-drift.
>>341637653
You bet.
>>341637938
Damn, I remember when I thought Forza 4 looked photorealistic.
>>341637938
The problem I had was that EVERY car was an S class s15, and they all caused a huge cluster fuck as the first hairpin of Fujimi Kaido Stage D. I could drift past them usually, but it could fuck up an entire run for me. Most people were cordial enough about the finish line, but if I was in a lobby particularly full of shitters who wouldn't stop hitting people, I made use of my speed run skills to fuck them all over. I drove a B class AE86 btw, with tofuboy livery because I too am a shitter.
>>341638506
I'm guessing it's poor sportsmanship to drive in a non ricer way in those, right?
>>341638718
You mean not drifting? Usually, but I always drifted because it was fun and I was generally faster at it.
>>341638378
Sure, times change. 4 and 3 were pretty games when they came out.
>>341638506
Strange. I don't think I ever had it that bad, although of course there were crashes and stuff, but I always waited for everyone to go first before I did. Fujimi New Downhill was my favourite track. I was in the top 200 at some point.
>>341638718
There were more than enough AE86's around. It wasn't really poor sportsmanship.
>>341638940
I was playing the game well into Forza 5 and and Horizon 2's lifespan, so that may be why. Prior to that I was mostly offline bc I hated paying for Live.
>>341639084
Ah fair enough, most of the community had probably moved on by that point. I sold my 360 around the time 5 came out, so I don't know how it went.
