frame drops anyone?

My game doesn’t unlock until the 3rd but I noticed frame drops in a few YT vids. AR12 also reported the same in a vid or two recently uploaded.

Mates who own the game also reported getting a few.

Is this game not optimized properly for the base Xbox One? If not, I think this is going to be a first because never in the history of Forza have there been frame drops (not to be confused with the mircro screen pause), apart from FM4 where the smoke from doing donuts would make the game hiccup a bit.

What is going on here? Did FM7 undergo proper bug and stress testing?

I got a couple of dips last night nothing major but I didn’t get the supposed 50gb day one update, I checked for updates but I assume it isn’t coming until the 3rd

Yes I also get a few frame rate drops nothing major at yhe moment but it does happen.

Only frame drops I had was with FF cars in open championship…those drops were consistent throughout the entire race. Very unpleasant experience…

The FF races slow down to a crawl it’s so bad

I played a couple of wet races and the lag and frame drops were so bad I couldn’t continue playing and this was in single player, it was bad also on the next track I tried that was dry…
Then the next races were all fine so I’ve no idea what to say…!!

I had massive frame drops driving the Plymouth GTX Fast and Furious Edition on Rio

Im experiencing severe frame drops when using the FF Demon, especially at Rio and Maple. I am on Xbox One. I did not notice it with other vehicles, and Ive run 50 races or so now.

I’m not sure if frame drops and stuttering are synonymous but I’m definitely experiencing stuttering when playing a bit and extreme amounts at the post race screen where it will appear to freeze for a moment while it’s calculating and then show the CRs earned. Very irksome.

I’m on PC.

Another one on Xbox with huge frame drops when using F&F cars (Plymouth in particular - almost unplayable on Hockenheim in rain, and Rio).

+1 for frame rate drops using the FF8 cars on the XB1S.

on pc and yeah frame rate drops any car any track (high end pc)
mind you not as bad as fh3 was so thats a start :slight_smile:

Yeap framerate not stabilize, especialy on replay mode…framerate drops too but not so bad drops, 1080Ti, i5 6500 setting @4K 60fps (Vsync), res scale 100… i think its easyly my spec can handle @4K 60fps stabilize…hope soon there are patch to stabilize the framerate

I haven’t experienced any frame drops whatsoever. I play on Xbox One.

Out of curiosity, how many hours have you invested into the game so far? Can you confirm if you’ve experienced ZERO frame drops on any track + weather combo with max AI cars?

Also, I’d like to know if you have any frame interpolation/motion enhancements turned ON in your TV.

Thank you everybody, appreciate the feedback. Keep it coming. I’ll lend my two as well the moment I get to play it on Tuesday. This is not reassuring though. Feel dread creeping up in my throat for the preorder…

I’ve been playing since Thursday at 11pm when the game became available in my area. No motion enhancements. I’ve had absolutely no frame drops. I’m currently on the Breakout Cup on single player.
