At this stage in the game’s lifecycle, it’s reasonable to make educated assumptions based on past performance. This game, thus far, has had a lackluster car pass, a blatant and boring drip-feed of content that never should have been removed from the base game in the first place, very questionable editorial and design choices, and the Hot Wheels DLC, which has all of the durability and longevity of a paper airplane made from a thoroughly-saturated gas station receipt. Now we’re asked to be patient about a partnership with a YouTube car channel that can most charitably be described as a Family Dollar Hoonigan.
Do you not see why we’re skeptical? To take your advice and see what an official announcement brings, quite honestly, is to put our hopes into that update not just being The Update, but being The Update That Changes The Game. This game’s in such a condition right now that every update from here on forth has to be substantial, meaningful, and positive in changing a core aspect of the game, particularly in the realm of genuinely new content. Do you really think that this Donut Media DLC is going to be that kind of update?
The FE Fairlady too, haven’t tried most of them but to be fair the Forsberg’s a pretty good A class dirt car with the right tune.
I have to agree overall though, the 911’s are just as tiresome and both Forza franchises have been obsessed with them + Porsche in general since acquiring the licence around 10 years ago.
If it’s just a few new cars and story missions like Top Gear was for Horizon 4, and not a full expansion that I already paid for, then it’ll be fine. I’ll probably play it once and never again, and if I’m really lucky, maybe the cars will come in handy. But whatever.
After the annouce of Hot Wheels dlc, that a played the first race and get bored, never touched this game again, and I keep comming here to see if I can find some good news, but looks like that Horizon 5 is dead for me, forever. Probably the next DLC will be something for kids again. The graphics on Series X are awful, looks like I’m playing a Xbox One game, with that lazy optimization and ridiculous draw distance. Seriosly, this should be a good bye Xbox One game, not a new console game.
Hehe it would be apropos, only in my case, bravo is referenced from the phonetic alphabet & taken from my military days, as in: Bravo company, 4th platoon, roster number 37 lol
A lot of it is not speculation, but information “leaked” as per the agreement between the developer and Donut Games. Let’s not pretend we found secret information here
Never owned an OLED, but would think it should look outstanding. My XSX is hooked into a 65” Sony Bravia XBR LCD that is now 6 years old & it looks phenomenal.
I think it’s personal taste/preference/expectations. I’m on an LG OLED gaming tv with XSX and I’m quite happy with how it looks. My only complaint is the XSX can only handle FH5 at 4k 60fps opposed to 120fps which was my expectations prerelease.
Plus quality mode is a no go unless you’re happy to not drive around at all which means your only graphics option is performance mode.
Don’t worry @x_ShadowsBane_x , you’re in good company! And I agree, it’s not always easy to tell the differences regardless of your age until they can be pointed out side by side & even then it’s usually not “whoa! What a difference”.
I got caught up in the whole audiophile/videophile thing for a while & it just gets tiring after so long. If it looks good/sounds good, go with it!
Assuming you meant try performance mode? (I think you’re getting old man! )
I’ve never had an issue with blurring (& not bc things always look blurred to me lol). It seriously runs excellent in every regard.
