[proper basin]

Nowadays they are not as consistent

[outer pollen]

What remains of Edith finch

[compact oriole]

lots of their shit is modern audience identity stuff

they published sayonara wild hearts im seeing rn. that shit was really cool

[proper basin]

Yeah ive heard good stuff about sayonara wild hearts

[compact oriole]

pretty trippy music album game

friends and i played it while uh.. tripping

[proper basin]

Im interested in playing that skating game devolver publushed

Pretty much similar vibes

[outer pollen]

Skate Story

[proper basin]

That’s the one

[compact oriole]

do you mean that super surreal trippy one?

[proper basin]

Yep

Thatd be fun just to experience

Since your a demon eating stars

[outer pollen]

New gacha unit

[proper basin]

And i need a new ori game

[nimble current]

I don't get it honestly

[compact oriole]

anna purna published solar ash but not hyper light games 😮

(same devs iirc)

[outer pollen]

Also Flower!

That game was amazing, playing as the wind

[proper basin]

Solar ash was good

Game has a cool speed running scene

[compact oriole]

im looking through the catalogue and im seeing games reminiscient of mixtape. i guess thats kind of their vibe. maybe theres smth else good in there

[proper basin]

Very mario galaxy

Yeah its pretty consistent with annapurnas style and vibe

[outer pollen]

2007 the Golden Year of Gaming

[proper basin]

Just this game in particular doesnt hit for people really

[compact oriole]

mixtape?

honestly i think ign singlehandedly helped gain it so much negativity. its kind of how tga gave high guard a ton of press and kind of stacked the odds against it because expectations arent met

[proper basin]

Yeah i dont really have as many problems of a game having very little “game” in it i guess as most people

But yeah ign definitely brought a lot of extra hate to it

[outer pollen]

My friend that defends Starfield and likes Mixtape also enjoyed High Guard

[compact oriole]

is your friend like actively trying to have the wrong opinion?

[outer pollen]

I think it’s the larping as an Indie game

[outer pollen]

Sometimes I feel like he is

[compact oriole]

i mean, ill keep saying that i think mixtape is a nice experience as an interactive album/mixtape

[fallow bronze]

Ohno ppl like different things!

[compact oriole]

i liked it didnt have these pseudo "decisions matter" shit that life is strange has

or many other of these millenial nostalgia slop entries

[proper basin]

This to the nth degree

[compact oriole]

i didnt record footage or make screenshots but i was at awe with some scenes and enviroment they showed

was just fucking beautiful

[outer pollen]

The tongue mini game?

https://tenor.com/view/burnt-peanut-side-eye-the-burnt-peanut-gif-6339277251445282356

[compact oriole]

ye that shit had me going

[outer pollen]

lol

[compact oriole]

idk it was a funny and creative idea at least

[hot spire]

goldeneye is a lie to you?

[outer pollen]

I’m sure the game is a nice experience like you’re saying and it being cutscenes and stuff isn’t bad, just look at Heavy Rain

[compact oriole]

and it was made pretty weird on purpose with the mouths being lipless skulls basically

[outer pollen]

Heavy Rain was so good especially if you didn’t pause

[ivory dune]

Sounds like an Oddjob player :(

[hot spire]

also Halo is such a good XBOX game lel

[nimble current]

well its as good of an experience as you can get on a miscarriage of a controller

[small comet]

fh6

[compact oriole]

true, i think thats what itll always stay. even if they made a "good" halo i find it hard to imagine a big audience over years

[hot spire]

i mean they didnt know wtf to do

[nimble current]

still kinda average to what was going on in shooters on pc at the time imo

[hot spire]

and if you actually played it BEFORE ps analog/xbox it was amazing

[compact oriole]

isnt goldeneye like the n64 game everyone loves? or was it on other platforms as well

[hot spire]

also are you forgetting the massive brick theXBOX launched with

[nimble current]

that was a nice controller though

[hot spire]

it was the first good fps on console hands down

[nimble current]

at least if you got larger hands like I do

[compact oriole]

werent you not able to like aim down so the play was playing the midget character?

or am i conflating games

[hot spire]

it wasnt bad, but it wasnt good

its heavier than pretty much any wireless controller

[nimble current]

tbh I'd take it over anything playstation makes these days

[compact oriole]

i mean if you take away their live service garbage id argue sony made a bunch of really good games mostly before ps5

[hot spire]

i mean ds3/4 is peak

idk wtf sony is thinking

[proper basin]

i love my interactive art pieces

[outer pollen]

Even Astrobot?

[nimble current]

they're still on the small side for me, but yes better than the current ones

[outer pollen]

[nimble current]

am specifically referring to the controllers now, not so much the ps games

[compact oriole]

astrobot lol

oh lol i thought you meant games. nvm then

[hot spire]

may fav fact about the duke, is MS knew it was too big, so the small controller was standard in japan on launch

[nimble current]

woulda been hilarious if that thing went on sale in japan though

[hot spire]

you could buy it in japan

but the console shipped with the small controller

[nimble current]

how many did they sell and why was it all to american expats

[compact oriole]

i wonder if making "xl" controllers is a potentially successful product to make @nimble current assuming youd get a quality controller to your liking but for your insanely huge hands, would you buy it if you needed a new one? (avg controller price)

[hot spire]

i wish there was a d4 with analog buttons

would be the peak sony controller

[hardy merlin]

immigrants*

[nimble current]

idk but gamers apparently have hands on the tinier side if current controller size standards are to be believed

[hot spire]

the upgreaded ds4 is amazing

but you cant play ps2/3 games that want analog face buttons

[compact oriole]

well they make controllers for what ever the avg is. as many people as possible are supposed to be able to use em

[nimble current]

I wouldn't say my hands are obscenely huge, but like, adult hands

[hot spire]

https://klipy.com/gifs/archer-lana-2--k01KRRHHGCWAQ55SVJV8A0KNKAR

[sinful cobalt]

[nimble current]

idk shit like the ps5 controller gives me hand/wrist strain after like 15 minutes

[compact oriole]

i found nightman

[hot spire]

fish and women fear him

[nimble current]

and keyboards

[compact oriole]

bro unironically probably cannot type

[hot spire]

he needs that worlds largest keyboard to hunt and peck

[nimble current]

he needs the glarses keyboard

[compact oriole]

he puts 2 little hats on his pointer fingers so he can type on a kb

phone probably impossible to even use for that guy

[compact oriole]

man id be really curious about how he uses a smartphone

[hot spire]

left hand

[compact oriole]

if he does at all

[hot spire]

he only has 1 big hand

his other hand is smaller

[compact oriole]

doesnt look like it

[hot spire]

but i dont think he could anyway he has movment issues with both

[compact oriole]

ok defintely a lil better but not "normal" size

[nimble current]

idk I always strongly favored gaming on mouse+kb, thumbsticks never got me the precision I wanted

[hot spire]

yeah same

i played pc fps first, console fps was always worse

same with rpg/rts, only racing was better

[compact oriole]

depends on genre for me. im not playing racing games or platformers on a kb

[hot spire]

hence why i have a analog keyboard and analog mouse

[nimble current]

yeah I might agree on the racing part

racing games on a controller can be a vibe

[hot spire]

normal kb+mouse over controller for racing?

[compact oriole]

mistyped. corrected what i meant

[hot spire]

ah ok

[nimble current]

I can't really get into platformers these days

[hot spire]

i was gonna say, i literally own a wootingf becuase driving is so ass with kb

i got it for arma, i have stick+collective for helo, but driving was so ass

[nimble current]

I played so many in my youth because that was mostly what there was to play

[hot spire]

i use my rudder pedals, but kb steering sucked

and i could never get using rudders for gas+brake+steering

i was peak analog gamer for a while. wooting+swiftpoint+rudder+track ir

and i even went from a g13 to wooting XD

[compact oriole]

honestly i also think there arent many around worth playing

[nimble current]

I got a wheel and pedals and its been gathering dust for years, feelsbad

[outer pollen]

@proper basin Just a few more days, until peak drops https://store.steampowered.com/app/2605790/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Rogue_Core/

Steam

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core

DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: ROGUE CORE is a spinoff of Deep Rock Galactic with a roguelite twist. The roguelite element means you start each mission with only the most basic equipment, and cooperatively build up powers, weapons and abilities as you go. Each run requires you to think on your feet and work with your team to put together the most powerful…

Release Date

May 20, 2026

[nimble current]

I've played it a couple hrs

[hot spire]

one day ill make a replacement pcb for my g13 with analog swtichs

[compact oriole]

fh6 coming out thats what i undusted my wheel setup for, coping to get some use out of it this time

[hot spire]

and a halleffect stick

[outer pollen]

enjoyed it?

[nimble current]

idk I kinda didn't like fh4 and 5 much

[outer pollen]

I'm expecting big things

[nimble current]

yeah

[hardy merlin]

Played it for an hour and got bored
It's literally FH5 with new map
Good thing I didn't bought it

[nimble current]

its not too far off og drg but missions feel notably different

and how it progresses

[outer pollen]

I saw there's like a beam sword

Pretty excited

[compact oriole]

prolly wont put big hours into it either but im gonna enjoy playing the "campaign" with friends

[nimble current]

fh feels so much like quantity over quality driving the cars to me

you get hundreds of them but they all feel like 10 different ones tops

not to mention sounds like them

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, I'll wait like a year or so until all bugs are ironed out and it's on 30~50% discount, then gonna play with friends too

[compact oriole]

it tries to go giga broad with cars and also the types of races. if you distill it down to the type of things you like thats your best bet

for example i dont like the fast exotic super cars. i enjoy more of a rally type of speed

i think many actually really enjoy cruising around in the world and exploring or doing the collectathon part of the game

[nimble current]

if there's one thing I'd play fh6 for its the map that's true

[compact oriole]

not really my style either tho

[nimble current]

the fh4 one was okay, fh5 got me bored so fast honestly

[compact oriole]

the map (country) is the main reason why fh6 in 120€ ea already outdid peak fh5 numbers

[hot spire]

the intro so too fucking long, my gripe with fh6

[nimble current]

lots of weebs out there for sure

[hot spire]

the whole intro race things, then a intro thing after that

like i just want to set my damn input devices up

[compact oriole]

but generally this map looks more interesting too. fh5 was fucking barren idk. almost no urban areas

[outer pollen]

Damn Humble Bundle revoked and refunded for that price mistake they did on Code Vein 2

Not my picture btw

[compact oriole]

its like a big attention grabbing intro for normies

[hot spire]

also if you have a shifter, and you enable clutch for shifting, paddles still work

[little cape]

i see this chat just consist of edgy people hating on every game just for attention

[hardy merlin]

No, this time around they made it actually in a good way, you can access settings before starting campaign and at any time during intro

[hot spire]

you cant test them though

[compact oriole]

you test em in the intro

[hot spire]

in every there is no like quick race or something where you can just drive

[outer pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-smiling-cat-cute-cat-cat-meme-smiling-gif-10086598795453609558

[hot spire]

if you have an actual racing setup it sucks

FF wasnt working and the ratio was wrong

so i had to restart a few times

and it puts you right back in the unskippable intro bs

[little cape]

not you constantly talking shit about marathon just to become addicted to it

[compact oriole]

true, but also unfortunately this is just a "console" type arcade racing game

[hot spire]

i mean it works pretty dam well

[compact oriole]

woulda just finished the intro quickly.. on kb or controller if setup didnt t work

[hot spire]

hard with a wheel, shifter and hand brake in the way

[compact oriole]

horizon "story" is cringe enough. no need to do the same shit 5 times

[hot spire]

i dont have a sim seat, i just clamp to desk

[nimble current]

gaming kinda sucks ngl

[cyan pewter]

fh6 has way better character voicelines vs 5

[compact oriole]

dont have a full rig either. but i bought like a stand that i can move and put away

[compact oriole]

well theyre probably not doing racist caricature dialogue in this one as they did 5

[outer pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/fast-and-furious-city-cars-people-crowd-gif-16341064

can we do this in the game?

[hot spire]

i dont race enough for that

i have a trash picked wheel and pedals and ali express shifter/brake

[cyan pewter]

no pedestrians

[little cape]

It does but there's still some gems out there. Imagine paying money for a gaming computer for its primary use of only discord

[nimble current]

yeah, wouldn't be that guy

[outer pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-bonk-bonk-cat-attack-white-cat-bonk-camera-gif-12579285308205623581

[little cape]

[compact oriole]

well if you play from indie to aaa youll always find good games

[nimble current]

at least my rig isn't one of those overkill ones

ain't even got x3d

[little cape]

attack if you want that experience bud go play gta

[little cape]

damn money is tight

[cyan pewter]

car companies dont like licencing their cars where it can be used to hit people

[nimble current]

yeah I threw together an am5 board on a budget year and half ago

[cyan pewter]

but i do wish that they had more walking around inside of stores or more areas with barriers

[compact oriole]

they dont even like licensing their cars where they can be destroyed.. its so fucking stupid that we have worse games because of that

[nimble current]

so far its been serving me really well but I might get an x3d this black friday or smth

[little cape]

save your money. You dont play any games

[hot spire]

rememeber when GT didnt have damage because no one wanted thier cars looking banged up

[nimble current]

because most games I actually end up still playing are all cpu hogs

[compact oriole]

5800x3d still a banger cpu

[little cape]

he doesnt have a x3d cpu

[compact oriole]

ye thats why i said it. cheap upgrade

at least i assume its cheap

[nimble current]

would have to be a 7800x3d minimum for me to bother

[little cape]

that cpu is hard to find mostly out of stock

[nimble current]

9800x3d probably

[little cape]

unless you buy it off someone

[nimble current]

am on a 7600x now and its no slouch for most part

[stiff fiber]

at least you are already on am5

[hot spire]

man some dude local has a 7800x3d+5080 setup for 2k....

man i shouldnt

[nimble current]

yeah

and 32gb of ddr5 6000

[hot spire]

why fb marketplace be doing that to me

[stiff fiber]

I am still on am4 😵‍💫

[nimble current]

really wish I'd gone with 64 tho

[stiff fiber]

mid 2025 was probably the best time to build

[nimble current]

I built this in late 2024

[stiff fiber]

yeah it is good

[hot spire]

this pc im looking at has 32gb of 6000 XD

[orchid prism]

I would have had that if not for 9070XT. It's not bad. Some games really do require that even at 1440P 😄

[hot spire]

2k is tempting

maybe ill low ball him

[orchid prism]

OH a PRICE

I thought you meant it was overkill for 1440P hahaha

[hot spire]

its a full rig, 7800x3d+5080+32gb+2tb 990 pro

[nimble current]

its plenty and fast for most of us, unless you're an idiot like me who play games like star citizen

[hot spire]

5080 is like 1-1200 on is own

[compact oriole]

2k for all of that sounds like a really good deal

[nimble current]

sounds like a powerhouse to me

[stiff fiber]

yeah

[orchid prism]

Sound slike a good deal. Could resell anything you already have like the SSD

[proper basin]

very beefy

i made my bf a 7700x 9070xt build for 1500 just this recently

[hot spire]

if it wasnt a gigashit b650 id keep it all XD

[compact oriole]

would you get another mb? is that really that important?

[hot spire]

i mean mobo is most important part XD

[compact oriole]

i guess i would too if it had to few usb to my liking

[hot spire]

if it shits out youre screwed

[nimble current]

can't be worse than my asrock right

[hot spire]

XD

[compact oriole]

and youre not screwed if the any other component dies?

[hot spire]

i have asrock now

[nimble current]

this asrock mobo has already died on me once

[compact oriole]

same mine is asrock too

[nimble current]

had to get it replaced

[hot spire]

id porb just get a 870e proart

[nimble current]

they're really stable mobos though, when they live

like crashing and other issues has been seriously rare

[compact oriole]

ngl when i choose a mobo these days mostly what i look for is enough usbs

[hot spire]

the issue with b650 is x16 + x1+x1 is the slots

[compact oriole]

ok thats really bad

[hot spire]

yeah

i have 5070ti+5070 now for ai bs

id prob sell the ti and keep the non and run it with the 80

[compact oriole]

you have 2 in 1 pc?

[nimble current]

am plenty happy with my 5070

[hot spire]

for ai

[nimble current]

but then am not your average gamer I guess

[hot spire]

llms need lots of vram and scale with multi gpu

[compact oriole]

it is the avg gamer variant in the lineup

[hot spire]

tbo if nvdia supported any other apiu than cuda id run nvidia+intel

but you are forced to the vulkan api with mixed

which is ass

i should just get 2 b60s

[nimble current]

figured the average gamer probably games more than I do, but yeah I don't see why anyone coming from a console wouldn't be more than happy with this even at 1440p

[hot spire]

and skip the main

[compact oriole]

well gaming has become an very expensive hobby. gotta have good money for the most part to drop money on cards above 5070 at this point

[hot spire]

tbo the only reason id upgrade to a 5080 is i could sell my ti and the rest of my parts for the cost im paying for the rip

i can sell my ti used for more than i paid new 6 mo ago

[compact oriole]

get that rig, take the best shit and resell the rest as a new complete rig. probably at even more than what you pay for now

[hot spire]

if i can talk him down to 1800, i can sell the ti for like 800, my 32gb sticks of ddr4 for 150 each and my 5800x3d for like 400

and then i just haver to forkout money for some ddr5

makes it freeish

[compact oriole]

wouldnt it be better to build a 2nd pc out of the parts youre not using

[hot spire]

for what

[compact oriole]

as a complete package

[hot spire]

i have a servers

[compact oriole]

to sell

[hot spire]

parts > complete

especially for high end stuff like the 5800x3d and 32gb sticks of ddr4

there is like 600+ in just ram in my pc right now

no one wants to buy that in a complete pc

[fringe salmon]

while everything is expensive see if you can get better than 6000 atm as well for future cpu upgrades

or can oc better on average at least if above 6000 is too much added cost

[hot spire]

the pc has 32gb of 6000, id just get another 32tgb 6000 until it normizes

[proper basin]

@outer pollen yep, still peak

[fringe salmon]

ah for more capacity fair

[hot spire]

32 isnt enough as i run SW/inventor in vms as they love to crash the os

[compact oriole]

i dont run any fancy shit and i upgraded to 64gb cz in certain games itd max my ram in conjunction with other sw i always have running in the background

[hot spire]

yeah

32gb goes quick when like discord and steam eat a gb each

then a like 5gb min for a browser these days

[compact oriole]

apart from vlc always got lots of shit running

[hot spire]

why do you keep wootility open?

[hardy merlin]

Discord, Steam and Firefox with several tabs

[cyan pewter]

@maiden tulip i think ima stick with these

[hardy merlin]

It's background service

[compact oriole]

thats their background service thing that one day maybe hopefully will be able to switch profiles based on game running

[hot spire]

i was gonna say it dosent do anything XD

[compact oriole]

ye i had installed it when they made it available and im still waiting

[hardy merlin]

SSR > RT

[compact oriole]

maybe itll come when they finally add macros to the kb, since every other manufacturer is doing it and theyre nerfing their own product for no reason

[cyan pewter]

rt eats up so much performance its crazy
im so used to getting 200+ in fh5

[hot spire]

espically on amd

[hardy merlin]

I tried SSR and RT and I literally can't tell a difference in this game

[cyan pewter]

if i enable rt it goes from that 115 avg --> 80

and thats only rt on medium settings

[hardy merlin]

Just wish that they kept FXAA, only AA you get are temporal ones

[fallow bronze]

A. Lot of temporal ones are better than fxaa aka blur filter

[hardy merlin]

I'll take blur filter over ghosting every time

[mellow garden]

Wrong opinion

The death of FXAA/MSAA is also a good thing

In my temporal era

[hardy merlin]

Would you look at the time, it's daily Johners L take time

[maiden tulip]

do you guys want a dashi L to go eith it

[mellow garden]

I’m just right

Honestly, the upscalers on auto mode should just be the default/only AA options

The real end game

[hardy merlin]

Yee, more frametime latency, more ghosting, more

[maiden tulip]

i like motion blur in a lot of games

I leave it on

Intentionally

[compact oriole]

shoulve warned us that it was gonna be such an insanely massive L

[hot spire]

i mean all the render time of 4k with the ppi of 1080 dosent sound good to you XD

[compact oriole]

idk if my heart can handle this

[maiden tulip]

i turn it off in a few games but most of my games motion blur is on

[hot spire]

why would you want it more blury?

[compact oriole]

the only time i can see a sensible use out of motion blur is if the fps is so bad that it helps hide that fact

but itd have to be like 30 fps and at that point im not sure it helps anymore

[hot spire]

it would be worse at low fps no?

youd see the blur more

[compact oriole]

i dont really know how exactly it works. i kinda assumed motion blur used to help consoles generally look more fluid

[maiden tulip]

@hardy merlin i have a question for you

Does fsr native aa work for you in forza 6

Mine uh breaks things

Makes my screen turn bright red im curious if its an ultrawide bug or a 7900xtx bug lol

Ive just been using taa instead

[hardy merlin]

Worked okay for me, both TAA and FSR AA

[maiden tulip]

Guessing its an ultrawide bug then

Like when i have it on it makes it look like my graphics card is dying its quite the experience

But with it off the game is perfect and xess aa works fine and tas works fine

And fsr upscaling works fine

But if i turn on fsr native its like a horror movie

I'll try setting my game to a more standard res to test lol

[little cape]

[compact oriole]

hes sick

[small comet]

yo i just finished those missions the dudes doing rn

[compact oriole]

this is the kinda skill i strife for

[little cape]

that guy deserves more viewers

[small comet]

first i strife for the setup

then the skill

[little cape]

[compact oriole]

true

[small comet]

also you guys see the game has a "ms teams calling" horn

i sadly got it from a wheelspin

i wish i could trade it

[cyan pewter]

some cars feel like boats in fh6

and thats why the gr gt is so good

not boaty

[small comet]

i wish i had smth nicer than the tacoma wp car rn,,,, god it drives so nice

also wish i had any ability to drift in forza games.... i suck at drifting the most

[cyan pewter]

aim for cars with longer wheelbases, those tend to hold angle better

[small comet]

all i heard was bus

also still need a car for some of the offroad speedtraps at 300kmh+

cant get the grip to actually go that fast in any of my cars that could

[cyan pewter]

also if youre just learning, i dont suggest this zone
its so technical and took me forever to get 3 stars
it requires just a lot of sending and keeping the rpms up

[small comet]

i have exactly 0 points total in all drift zones

i think i might have forgotten to actually clear/start trailblazer spots

crap

[cyan pewter]

this is what i use to offroad and has been since like fh4

oh i also got the supped up chinavan

[small comet]

this one i have no clue how to even accelerate to 313. i tried just going off the road but the hill is too steep

same for this one

well on this one i just dont have anything that can keep the speed on the dirt road

[cyan pewter]

i havent done many of the offroad speedtraps yet

matter of fact i dont even have that one unlocked yet

[small comet]

last 2 speedtraps for me

and 3 speedzones offroad idk how to tackle

[cyan pewter]

im so broke rn

[quiet vault]

this game grindy as hell

[small comet]

is it?

[hardy merlin]

it is?

[small comet]

cant say i felt it that way

unless you specifically mean the drift stuff

[hardy merlin]

Neither FH4 nor 5 were grindy, and that's just that with a new map

[quiet vault]

getting max wrist band and stuff

[cyan pewter]

fuck the hoonigan cars arent here

[hardy merlin]

Ah, leveling, then yeah, a bit
But you get it with time anyway

[small comet]

idk i did all that in a day

[cyan pewter]

i thought it was pretty quick

especially the earlier bands'

[small comet]

ye last band was the grindiest imo

[quiet vault]

maybe just not a fan of the system

[cyan pewter]

okay so the rs200 isnt cutting it anymore, i also need a new offroad car

[quiet vault]

didnt like it in the rally dlc

[quiet vault]

where rs200 hoonigan

that one was great

[cyan pewter]

theres no more hoonigan licensing

[hardy merlin]

Stellar Blade has HDR?

[cyan pewter]

theyre bankrupt

iirc most of the cars have been sold off to collections since k block died

[small comet]

i thought the daughter continued

[hardy merlin]

Ah, DXVK_HRD=1 may not work

[small comet]

also they still do videos on hoonigan car builds

[cyan pewter]

maybe im misremembering then

[small comet]

not to mention idk why they cant just buy a license and still add old cars

not like hoonigan has to still have them

[cyan pewter]

or its the older stunt cars that got sold

[cyan pewter]

got my 2nd to last wristband

this season change thing is taking forever

[hardy merlin]

Really? There's no in-game setting?

[cyan pewter]

welp ig its time to restart the game, might as well just move it to my nvme

[mellow garden]

There are PS button prompts in-game

I played Stellar Blade on my DualSense

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, but not on Steam Controller

[mellow garden]

Steam Controller should just show up as an Xbox Controller though?

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, it does, but I'm already used to PS prompts in games

[mellow garden]

Just use Xbox prompts

It literally matches the controller in your very handy

[ivory dune]

The lady wants. Play. Station. Prompts.

[hardy merlin]

I'm not looking at my controller when playing

[stiff fiber]

Hello

I started tomb raider the game from 2013 it is surprisingly good for now

It reminds a little bit of uncharted

[grizzled quarry]

Some of his older cars were sold

And a lot of the machines (side by sides, sleds, etc)

[grizzled quarry]

Iirc they still have hoonicorn and a few of the older gymkhana cars

[maiden tulip]

fsr native aa is broken at ultrawide

[grizzled quarry]

Some of it went to museums or some shit too I think

[grizzled quarry]

This reminds of burnout paradise graphics

[small comet]

i just have all the aa set to off

[maiden tulip]

it's fine if i use any other form off aa

or if i set my display to 16:9 for native fsr3 aa

just wanted to share its a funny bug

[maiden tulip]

just ultrawide things i guess

:(

[cyan pewter]

im hearing a whole lotta skill issue

bruh as soon as i swapped the game from my ssd to nvme, the load times are nearly instant

HDR game analysis (@HDRgameAnalysis)

Help with setting up HDR in Forza Horizon 6 on PC.
︀︀
︀︀The game does not output the max luminance you setup on the in-game peak brightness slider, unless you have a display capable of 800 nits or less.
︀︀
︀︀Below I have shown what the game will output in its brightest highlights (most of the time) at the listed in-game peak brightness and paper white settings.
︀︀
︀︀- First number is what you setup on the in-game Peak Brightness slider.
︀︀- Second number is what you setup on the in-game Content Paper White slider.
︀︀- Third number is what the game will output in the brightest highlights most of the time.
︀︀
︀︀When you increase paper white the midtone brightness increase, but the lower shadows also increases a bit. We unfortunately can not adjust shadows independently, so it will have to be a choice between what peak brightness you want, how bright the game must be to you overall (midtones) and what black levels you prefer.…

longer post

[cyan pewter]

i knew you said it was long but holy

[small comet]

yeah if you dont just rush all the events and speedtraps etc its an agonizing bit of points

[quiet vault]

that island better be good

[small comet]

its not

only has a few more events and another time attack

[maiden tulip]

@small comet you have an uw 5120x1440 display like mine

[small comet]

but the wrist band unlocks other stuff like the 4 endurance races in each big category

[small comet]

yes

[maiden tulip]

can you test fsr3.1 native aa

[quiet vault]

is the track good

[maiden tulip]

see if it breaks like mine i wanna know cuz im filing a bug report

and im on amd you're on nvidia

[small comet]

baller with an R/X car

[quiet vault]

i don't care about races

just want nice freeroam area

[small comet]

actually 2 of the races go around the entire map

1 on the highway and 1 on the roads

[maiden tulip]

like after 3 mins of driving it becomes a visual mess

[hardy merlin]

Aight, so SB - intro to story is absolutely predictable, wow
And you can tell that Japanese put their hands into it, holy prompts everywhere and PC settings being a complete mess
Why yes, you have to restart game everytime when you tinker with FSR and framegen, why you ask?
Is this like Japanese custom that they can't make a good PC UI or it will bring a dishonor to their family or something?

[quiet vault]

the usual

[small comet]

dont have any native just on or off

[quiet vault]

the map is great

[small comet]

well no because japan

[maiden tulip]

yes thats the one im talking about

fsr 3.1.whatever AA @small comet

[small comet]

didnt become a visual mess like yours yet

[small comet]

only froze the cam while hud elements kept moving

[maiden tulip]

give it a minute or 2

drive around

[small comet]

i did

[quiet vault]

i cant not use dlss

[small comet]

read

[maiden tulip]

sometimes it takes a few mins yes

[quiet vault]

gotta try changing the model tho

[small comet]

.

[quiet vault]

other presets supposedly better

[compact oriole]

the game is korean tho.
and ye the story is not really the games strongsuit

[maiden tulip]

thats an odd one

[small comet]

ill just stay with no AA

0 ghosting and just works

[hardy merlin]

Game is Korean, sure
But you can so tell that Sony put their hands in there

[maiden tulip]

yeah i just wont use it shits fucked

[small comet]

i mean i usually use DLAA if i cant disable AA

so

[cyan pewter]

i like the hillclimb cars

[compact oriole]

cant play without aa. the stair effects and flickering are so immersionbreaking

[small comet]

dont get any flickering

and i barely notice unaliased edges when i do see some

last togue unlocked

i dont wanna do it

[mellow garden]

Stellar Blade is what would happen if a Korean studio made Nier, more graphics and less story.

[compact oriole]

according to them the 2nd game will be better in that dept. they claim they didnt have the money to work on it more

[stiff fiber]

Is the first game worth it?

[small comet]

the p game is worth it

[cyan pewter]

i still cant get over this car
its so funny looking

[small comet]

actually quite a nice one once tuned

[cyan pewter]

can just about barely see over that light bar

[hardy merlin]

@maiden tulip you were right, disabling ReBAR completely fixed mini-stutters in the game for me
What did they do to this poor game engine

[cyan pewter]

yeah i like it a lot more vs the viper, the suspension is too soft

[maiden tulip]

Same bug i reported a long time ago in forza motorsport

[cyan pewter]

wait is that old forza aero

[compact oriole]

very fun game. i love the combat

[stiff fiber]

Might get it when on sale

[compact oriole]

it was recently cracked

[cyan pewter]

i like it stock tbh
the gearing ratios arent bad and it has more than enough power and torque

at least for A class

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, same
I got FH5 after few months on 35% discount, will do the same here

[grizzled quarry]

Wait did they add that dudes offroad viper in fh6?

[small comet]

i think i played all the fh5 time i did in like 2 or 3 months of super cheap gamepass

[grizzled quarry]

Holy shit he got his car in forza

W

[small comet]

yes

its ass

[cyan pewter]

it feels more like a trophy truck than anything imo

[small comet]

lets say the bronko i got from the roadside sales was better lol

[mellow garden]

Average FF14 character name

[hardy merlin]

Now it's even easier, Game Pass comes with Nitro

[grizzled quarry]

https://youtu.be/6d7aRoYvYs0

[small comet]

a new tier that doesnt include forza

[hardy merlin]

[small comet]

50 handpicked games by idk who at m$

[grizzled quarry]

LOL

[hardy merlin]

Oh, that sucks

[small comet]

thats all the gamepass games of the nitro pass

some good games dont get me wrong

but its only 50

[grizzled quarry]

Most of it is the garbage everyone with gamepass scrolls past

As expected though

[hardy merlin]

If Stellaris was with all DLCs then it'd be worth, otherwise meh

[small comet]

base game only

from my pov this is dope for someone who doesnt have gamepass yet but pays for nitro already

especially since its both pc and xbox

so console gamers can also benefit

[grizzled quarry]

Paying for nitro in general seems moronic to me

[small comet]

i also havent played like most of these at all

[grizzled quarry]

None of the shit they offer is worth it aside from bigger uploads

But like, just use media fire or google drive

Streamable for clips

[small comet]

i actually mainly like the bigger text limit

really handy if you run discord servers

[grizzled quarry]

In over 10 years using discord ive never hit text limit on a real message

😭

[small comet]

oh yeah not normal messaging

mainly more like rules messages etc in non chat channels

[grizzled quarry]

For announcement shit yall do i could see it

[small comet]

smth i wish would just not have any limit since its not a chat channel

[grizzled quarry]

Also something youd think nitro boosts could just remove for the server

What even are the benefits of server boosts now

[small comet]

bigger uploads, emoji slots and server banner

[grizzled quarry]

Bigger uploads is nice

[small comet]

Level 1 Perks (2 Server Boosts)

    +50 Emoji Slots (for a total of 100)
    +10 custom sticker slots (for a total of 15)

    Audience capacity for Stage Channels with Video/Go Live: 300
    100MB Upload Limit for all members (server only)
    Custom Invite Link
    Animated Server Banner

some stage channel perks as well if you regularly use it for streaming/announcing stuff

and no the invite link thing is more of a bane than anything

[grizzled quarry]

Seen a few discords that got theirs stolen from them after losing a single boost

[small comet]

yep

the only sensible way to do custom links is either a domain you control and redirect with that OR become a verified community/game server

but the verified server stuff only really works rn if you can directly contact discord somehow (aka twitter dms or public tag etc)

[grizzled quarry]

The verified ones have permanent custom link right?

[small comet]

yes

[grizzled quarry]

Do you guys have that or is yours from boosts?

Oh it says community server

[small comet]

ye were verified

the important bit is the verified not community server. anyone can make a community server immediately

just means its searchable via the browser

[quiet vault]

is there a secret tony server

[small comet]

no theres a wooting one though

[quiet vault]

:/

[small comet]

and before that i only ran gaming guilds

like wow and pokemon

[grizzled quarry]

I had a server related to csgo a while back with like 1k members

Other than that I never really ran any discords aside from small ones w friends

[small comet]

i got dragged into so many small servers by people i know

[grizzled quarry]

My cs one got deleted, still have one with friends but nobody talks there anymore

• its down from like 110 people to 5

[small comet]

this will be a bit dark maybe but the old i got the less i know what friends really are, if i have any (really) or if i have friends and only interacting with them when necessary is how it should be

[grizzled quarry]

I have a few friends where we dont really ever talk in-between catching up now and then

Sort of just happens eventually depending on how close yall stay

[stiff fiber]

It is because people get issues and challenge when getting older and they forget about friends

As we sometime say out of sight out of mind

[cyan pewter]

finally finished all road and cross country races

still got 8k to go

i dont even know how im gonna get the rest

[small comet]

do all the speedtraps, speedzones, dangersigns

dont forget to do the 3 timeattacks and dragmeets with 1 car per class each (except X)

[small comet]

i think its just more that we dont really share games anymore that we play for example

or in many cases i moved out of the same country/city they are in

or they moved

[cyan pewter]

wait every class?

[small comet]

yes its 50 per class

and 50 for having done it in at least one class

just pick an s2 car then go to all 6 locations

then change to s1 and so on

goes quite quick

[hardy merlin]

I need more stuff
Can already no hit full combo any song

Also as much as I don't like covers, they are surprisingly good here

[manic owl]

@cyan pewter your gonna like that

[cyan pewter]

i already posted pics from day1

@manic owl

[manic owl]

oof i was kinda at the ring , then again its bumper cars

[cyan pewter]

i saw a clip, max almost crashed the AMG cause it got too much front end lift

[manic owl]

yeah well estre tried a reverse entry and did kiss the wall

[cyan pewter]

the green porsche right?

[manic owl]

hmh yeah grello

[cyan pewter]

i need to hang up forza
i can feel the heat radiating off the side glass

[manic owl]

honestly it might be the best forza yet , the details are there, like exhaust shaking and gasses is a small thing but damn it makes me happy.

[cyan pewter]

temps are completely fine tho

<70c on the cpu and <62c on gpu

[cyan pewter]

the leafs and cherry blossom petals that fly up when you drive over them

they paid a lot of attention to the smaller details for fh6

[manic owl]

oh yeah also the handling model is way better not like driving a piece of soap sliding around in the sink

[cyan pewter]

the new paints are amazing

[cyan pewter]

the gr gt is such a nice handling car

[manic owl]

bro the license plate creator is super strict

[cyan pewter]

yeah its the same as all the other forza games

just this time with a few newer japanese-style symbols

[manic owl]

wanted to do the same plate a the r9 racing supra but its banned

[cyan pewter]

oh as in censored

[manic owl]

yeah

[manic owl]

went with those for now

[cyan pewter]

good news

side glass is no longer burning

[hot spire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgg7pXWg3h4

[manic owl]

lowkey crazy that you finaly can have low power drift cars, its 200hp fairly tame

[cyan pewter]

how are you liking the game so far

[manic owl]

honestly so far its shaping to be the best horizon game ever made, the physics engine alone is way better

[cyan pewter]

photomode could use an update...

[small comet]

photomode could pls stop making the entire game lag when i try to take a pic at above 120kmh

[manic owl]

definetly but i think its a good upgrade and runs well , i play on ultra on my 3080 and get 100-120fps most of the time

[cyan pewter]

im so mad i cant use my mouse to control the camera because i always use it for fh4 and fh5

its fine on controller but man is it slow as fuck

panning while zoomed in at 6x takes years

[cyan pewter]

the lightboxes for the different time of days are a wee bit fucked

sunset desont look like a sunset

[manic owl]

im just impressed the use particles for exhausts

[cyan pewter]

yeah that was neat lil detail but it kinda adds so much

the pops are a lot more realistic too

[manic owl]

100%

[cyan pewter]

its not just a png that grows and shrink

[cyan pewter]

actually the only car ive driven that kinda sucks is ironically the gr gt

even tho i love how it handles the sound is..... to be desired

[manic owl]

hmm i just am not sure oi wharf and daikoku should be on one level iirc daikoku is over the water

[cyan pewter]

i also think that antilag sounds a lot better now and not that annoying.. whatever sound it made in fh5

[manic owl]

ah yes the agressive mexican food effect

[cyan pewter]

im so glad they got rid of those god awful hotwheel paints and added these

[small comet]

the one thing that really annoys me rn (and i cant remember if this was the same in fh5) but the barriers during races i feel like reflect too much sound

[manic owl]

spectraflame was cool once in a blue moon yeah

[vivid wharf]

drone mode so cool

[cyan pewter]

@maiden tulip 's tune
@manic owl i think youd like this

[grizzled quarry]

👀

s1000rr's just chilling on the side

[pulsar prism]

stagea

[grizzled quarry]

is that a vr swapped stagea

needs an rb 🥀

[cyan pewter]

from what dashi told me its the stock engine

[grizzled quarry]

that does NOT sound like an rb

[cyan pewter]

exhaust upgrades actually changes it a lot more than youd think

[grizzled quarry]

yeah but like

no rbs sound like that

[cyan pewter]

ask dashi she mande the tune

[grizzled quarry]

@maiden tulip

thats gotta be vr38 swapped

[cyan pewter]

but overall i like how the stagea handles

[grizzled quarry]

if thats an rb that sounds like shit 😭

[cyan pewter]

even with it with nonsense upgrades when i built it to drift it felt really comfortable

[grizzled quarry]

Ill play it on gamepass eventually

Gotta figure out login for that xbox acc

[stiff fiber]

so bulgaria won the eurovision

apparently as always it was not a good show

[orchid prism]

Definitely not the channel for that conversation.

[stiff fiber]

oh sorry

[woven hound]

Should I run 8k hz on a game like Fortnite or go to 1k ?

[trim rock]

If you feel it's making you a better gamer go for more hz

[woven hound]

Is there more delay for 8k ?

I got a low end pc so not sure if 8k would give delay or not

[heady trellis]

no

it's not like mice, keyboards don't really send enough data for higher polling rates to cause any kind of slowdown

will you notice it in fortnite? absolutely not lmao

it's only going to make a meaningful difference in games where like 1ms of latency can matter, which is largely just going to be rhythm games

[grizzled quarry]

Less than 1ms :p

Im doubtful it even has any impact on a rhythm game

[heady trellis]

you might get 1 or 2 more perfects than you would have over the course of a song

does that matter? idk, but it is free

[short elbow]

I feel like in game like fortnite 1k v 8k may not matter that much? I started at 8k but i put it down to 1k just because why not, and tbh i didnt notice a difference between the 2.

8k polling rate uses more cpu resources too? Idk how true that is or not but i guess its another plus for going down to 1k

[stiff fiber]

honestly I am not sure 1k or 8k change anything

1k is 1 ms sampling rate, 8k is 0.125 ms sampling rate

plus I dont even know how it interact with the frequency of the monitor when gaming

[grizzled quarry]

When it comes to actual latency, iirc 60he is 1.2ms and 80he is 0.4-0.6

Tachyon on for both

[stiff fiber]

I think 1k is enough

[grizzled quarry]

60v2 is probably just barely faster than 80he

[stiff fiber]

dont see a lot of situation where the difference in game is due to reacting with 1 ms or 0.125 ms

even if you react at 0.2 ms and it is registered at 1 ms it is not a difference that can have real world effect a lot of time

maybe in some games I dont know

[grizzled quarry]

Yeah when it comes down to microseconds im calling bs on any of it making a difference

[stiff fiber]

plus I dont know if it doesnt saturate the cpu

[verbal nymph]

Yeah, 1k is all you need.

[stiff fiber]

1k for keyboard and mouse and I am happy

[verbal nymph]

The only time I can imagine 8khz being useful is if you want to press 8 key at the same in a 10ms window

[grizzled quarry]

I use 2k on mouse, dont notice the difference but I use it anyway

[stiff fiber]

well I mean if a device come with a crazy polling rate working well I will still use it

but it is not the thing that will make me buy it

[heady trellis]

it doesn't, wooting will say as much themselves

but nobody is going to lie and say it matters

i have 90% of the rgb on the keyboard turned off so I use it because why not, but like... it's not really going toward anything significant it's just objectively faster

[stiff fiber]

yeah it is more of a why not feature

[compact oriole]

i switched it on in my game profiles just cz it can do it and idc about moving rgb

[abstract venture]

💀

[hasty belfry]

Does anyone know how to change or request to change the name of a game on pricecharting?

[outer pollen]

@cyan pewter new unit in GFL2

[stiff fiber]

I am playing tomb raider the one that came in 2013 what a nice game

remind me of uncharted

I bought it a while ago on sale on steaml it is worth playing it

[small comet]

the titan cross country was a joke in the subaru breeze fe.... on my s2 tune for max offroad speed it gave all the AI drivers slicks.... thanks forza

[compact oriole]

im surprised there werent too many cars for their liking or something

[small comet]

the sub wrx sti arx supercar also made a joke of the big rally race at the end

tacomaq trd pro fe made the R rated tracktoy one ez as hell

[compact oriole]

are you on highest diff?

[small comet]

expert

[compact oriole]

idk know the diffs in the game

[small comet]

but way too much of a gap for that to make a difference

[small comet]

theres only pro and unbeatable above this one

[compact oriole]

welp then its time to move up

[small comet]

but in all 3 i let my car roll into the finish

[small comet]

i mean.... i have now beaten all races in the game

[compact oriole]

how much playtime do you have?

[small comet]

theres only drift zones left (i cant fudging beat these in the ae86 or a formula drift car somehow), 2 speed traps offroad with ridiculous speed numbers and 3 drift zones offroad

oh and i havent ranked up in the delivery job

30hrs or so

[compact oriole]

man thats not a lot

[small comet]

i assume most of the content is yet to come with the festival playlist and prob more DLC stuff again like previous games

[compact oriole]

never played much. fh5 i bought the biggest edition just to drop it within thefirst month

so this time around i forced myself to not get baited and didnt buy the big edition

[outer pollen]

Too many roads

[compact oriole]

looked at the guys reviews. he does a ton of racing and skateboard games. so i guess they do actually also employ people who seem qualified

[small comet]

were they able to beat the turotial?

[compact oriole]

i didnt read the full thing but it was quite a lot of text. so i assume they got past the intro

[quiet vault]

kinda disappointed in NewToForza Cars with this release tho

[cyan pewter]

i dont even play

[hardy merlin]

New standa
Dude, it's a FH5 with new map

[cyan pewter]

bro my internets been out for an hour

good thing i can play forza offline

[compact oriole]

wdym?

[quiet vault]

i hoped they would add some more new cars already on launch

probably gonna be long drip feed again

[compact oriole]

arent there like.. hundreds of cars on release

[manic owl]

Thats fair id say, there could be more jdm oddballs in there

[quiet vault]

im talking about new cars

not really excited about unlocking the same cars again from fh5

[compact oriole]

are there lancias in the start roster this time?

like stradale or delta

seems delta is in the game but not stradale

[quiet vault]

no more bugatti is sad

i wanted some of their new models

[maiden tulip]

nope

[quiet vault]

we ALL putting racing v12 in every car

[mellow garden]

Nah, I'm making every car an EV

[quiet vault]

wish that was possible

[cyan pewter]

didnt even notice

[small comet]

so i barely got 2 drift zones done by cheesing them and drifting outside while slowly prograssing "forward"

i dont see myself doing any more of them

[grizzled quarry]

That is awful then

And im disappointed

[small comet]

ill also need to find a nice car to drive around at slower speeds but also slightly higher speeds

[grizzled quarry]

Are they just unfun score requirements or are you not the greatest at drifting

[compact oriole]

he bad at driftin

[quiet vault]

what the drift meta

[grizzled quarry]

My condolences

[quiet vault]

some formula drift car again?

[small comet]

idk could be both. i usually get just below the 3star score

[grizzled quarry]

Probably the same lame ass bullshit

[compact oriole]

actually maybe just the wrong car

[grizzled quarry]

Awd v12 swapped cars

[small comet]

id say basically any reallife drift car or a formula drift

i got an ae86 and downloaded the first drift setup

the thing can technically go 300 or so

[quiet vault]

3 star is pretty easy with good cars

[small comet]

but starts drifting immediately

[grizzled quarry]

Fh5 meta for drift zones was awd swapped anything with absurd power

[grizzled quarry]

So wouldnt be surprised if its the same

[quiet vault]

like festival playlist ones will maybe be a lil challenge

[grizzled quarry]

I usually just use normal cars for drifting

[small comet]

i guess i just suck at drifting

[grizzled quarry]

Angle kit + spend a half hour tuning it

[grizzled quarry]

This is possibly true

@cyan pewter physics wise drifting feels the same?

[compact oriole]

ye and drag slicks or smth?

[grizzled quarry]

Nah drift tires or race tires

Drag slicks give weird side bite

[compact oriole]

hm maybe they were different ones. someone talked about it and i was surprised at the unfitting tires

[grizzled quarry]

Its forza it might be true

[cyan pewter]

i wouldnt say its too different

[grizzled quarry]

I never bothered with the meta drift stuff its boring asf

[cyan pewter]

there is something off about the awd drift cars tho
that doesnt feel the same

[grizzled quarry]

I wanna drift in a realistic fashion not doing 200mph sideways in a awd swapped van

[cyan pewter]

or maybe its just the shitty tunes

[grizzled quarry]

Mm im gonna need to relearn tuning

Its been a while

[cyan pewter]

i need someone to build a lbwk garage theme

[grizzled quarry]

Do they have 180sx

[cyan pewter]

nope

[grizzled quarry]

Bro

What??

[cyan pewter]

the only new ones are the rx7 and the s15

since both cars were rescanned

[grizzled quarry]

For the love of God tell me they dont have a 240sx

[cyan pewter]

or do you mean the car itself

[grizzled quarry]

The car itself

Idc about body kits I just want my s13

[cyan pewter]

oh yeah of course they have the car

[grizzled quarry]

Is it 180sx or 240sx

[cyan pewter]

the 89 is the one you can choose when you start the game

[grizzled quarry]

Im gonna punch someone at forza

[cyan pewter]

its one of the 3

[grizzled quarry]

The game is set in Japan, and they use the na s chassis

[compact oriole]

https://forza.net/fh6cars

[grizzled quarry]

Not the 180sx😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

Makes 0 difference but that annoys me

[sinful cobalt]

[compact oriole]

i mean, theyre for sure gonna keep some expected banger cars for paid dlc

[cyan pewter]

the car pass pack has a few bangers

[grizzled quarry]

Nah but they are using the na version of the japanese car.... in the game set in Japan

Just seems like they were too lazy to rescan a 180sx

And copy pasted 240 instead

[compact oriole]

you gotta buy these packs els you cannot unlock the cars at all?

[cyan pewter]

whyd they use a 720p for this photo

[grizzled quarry]

I wonder if my forza tool will get updated

[cyan pewter]

i have no clue, i have prem edition of 5 and 6 and i dont remember for 4

[grizzled quarry]

If my tool still works I aint paying for no dlc

[cyan pewter]

this is great

[compact oriole]

reads like paid only.. literal day1 dlc

[cyan pewter]

i wonder which car is getting dropped first

and i really hope forza chose the v8 gemera and not the 3cyl version

[grizzled quarry]

Give us both

[compact oriole]

probably what ever super popular japanese car you can think of right now but somehow isnt in the release version

[cyan pewter]

itd probably be an engine swap

[grizzled quarry]

I pray for a day forza finally uses the names of engines for swaps

Instead of just 2l i4 etc

[cyan pewter]

all you get is racing v8

[grizzled quarry]

I remember on fh5 trying to figure out which engine swap an sr20 was

It was a pain having to go through 3 different honda engines

[compact oriole]

probably more licensing fees they dont think is worth going for

[grizzled quarry]

Dont they already have them from the manufacturers though

Or would it be separate licensing for the engines

Even though its the same company

[compact oriole]

i have no idea. just seems like the first reason that comes to mind why they dont do it. cz why wouldnt they if they could

[grizzled quarry]

I find login for that xbox account and install it today I think

[cyan pewter]

i thought the limit for garages were like 100k wtf lol

[compact oriole]

gonna preorder the big version shortly before general release?

[grizzled quarry]

Oh its not on gamepass yet

Thought it was

[compact oriole]

tuesday is the pleb release (in europe)

[grizzled quarry]

Then I wait

I aint spending money on forza

Games too arcadey for me to drop 100cad on

[compact oriole]

man crazy theyre putting like 50+ cars into the premium on release

[grizzled quarry]

I dislike this but hooray for new cars

[compact oriole]

must. not. fomo.

[dense igloo]

Can I get help here? My keyboard has stopped

[compact oriole]

theres channels to get help

[compact oriole]

ill stick with the plan to buy pass and if i really wanna play after the first month ill buy it

[cyan pewter]

the cars when you have multiple in 1 garage arent rendered in full quality

thats actually so disappointing

cause what is this

[grizzled quarry]

💀

[cyan pewter]

only the main car (aka the one youre "driving") is rendered in full quality

and even then like

forza why havent we fixed this yet

[hardy merlin]

Yup, they cannot be sold on auction house either

[hardy merlin]

CreamAPI doesn't work?

[grizzled quarry]

I do not know what this is

[cyan pewter]

@grizzled quarry wanna know what forza added instead of jdm cars?

[grizzled quarry]

Okay but where's my rx3

[grizzled quarry]

👀

[cyan pewter]

theres an FE rx3

[grizzled quarry]

What about datson 510

They got that?

[grizzled quarry]

Aight they cooked a little bit

70s jdm garage incoming

[hardy merlin]

DLC unlocker for Steam games

[grizzled quarry]

This would involve me buying it on steam

Tool I was talking about was just an open source "cheat" that lets you buy cars for free, gives dlc cars, etc

Makes rare cars from wheelspins purchaseable too

[hardy merlin]

Why would you get it on MS Store though

[grizzled quarry]

Gamepass

[hardy merlin]

fair

[grizzled quarry]

I dont wanna buy forza I probably wont play it much

Not enough to justify 100+$

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, I played 6 for an hour and got bored

[grizzled quarry]

If its better than 5 ill definitely play it for a little bit

But not enough to justify me buying it

[hardy merlin]

It's 5 with new UI and map

[grizzled quarry]

Mostly just gonna hop on and cruise/drift

[grizzled quarry]

Map was fh5s biggest issue

[stiff fiber]

The map of the 5 was amazing

[grizzled quarry]

First time ive heard this lmfao

[stiff fiber]

I loved exploring mexico

[grizzled quarry]

I disliked the roads

[stiff fiber]

I didnt like exploring england

[grizzled quarry]

Single lane roads the size of a fucking interstate

So boring to me

[stiff fiber]

How is the map in fh6?

[sinful cobalt]

bigger

[grizzled quarry]

@cyan pewter

[cyan pewter]

its a very vertical map

its like 50% larger than mexico

[grizzled quarry]

Do the roads feel a bit smaller, or are they still 3 lanes wide for a single lane

[cyan pewter]

it really depends where you are but yeah theyre still wide

[grizzled quarry]

🥀

I get its meant to be an arcade game but smaller roads would make it so much more enjoyable

[sinful cobalt]

relative wide

[cyan pewter]

even with a widebody kit on the rx7 its quite wide

[grizzled quarry]

Oh hell nah 😭

[hardy merlin]

Relative?! It's double lanes made into a single-lane

[cyan pewter]

am pro at driving

[grizzled quarry]

The main highway that goes through my province is as wide as that😭

[cyan pewter]

if you want i can stream

[grizzled quarry]

And thats meant to be the small "backroads"

[cyan pewter]

atm im just driving around

[grizzled quarry]

Lemme roll a joint and ill watch while I smoke prob

[stiff fiber]

You guys prefer this map to the one in fh5?

[grizzled quarry]

I feel like I will

I really disliked fh5 map

[stiff fiber]

I loved it 😓

[cyan pewter]

i personally think its a lot more fun
the sense of speed due to the density of the overall map makes it feel better

[grizzled quarry]

But one of my biggest gripes (the size of small roads) is still an issue

So idk if ill enjoy fh6 map a ton either

But I do think itll be better

[cyan pewter]

theres also more verticallity to the roads vs fh5's just flat or sand dunes

[sinful cobalt]

Forza 5 map was okay, but not the best

[grizzled quarry]

Fh3 map was peak

They did a damn good job on aus

[cyan pewter]

sure just lmk when

oh wait since im just driving around i might as well try wheel

[hardy merlin]

https://tenor.com/dvX7YsJLUug.gif

[sinful cobalt]

i mean FH 6 is like 150gb

[grizzled quarry]

@cyan pewter

[cyan pewter]

im in the servers vc

[grizzled quarry]

Can you show some of the chaser mods?

So nice finally seeing a chaser jn a forza game

Origin kit is fire

[small comet]

i agree

so far i like the fh6 map

[grizzled quarry]

Wait can you do different wheels front and back now?

[cyan pewter]

yes
