Demo does not support the Fanatec CSW V2 base it seems. It 'works' but without FFB, shifter not working and the steering wheel doesn't move in cockpit view.

I really hope that's just because its the demo.

I think they are working on bringing Fanatec wheels? Currently its not supported: http://forzamotorsport.net/en-us/news/fm6a_wheel_support

Note that there are additional wheels that we plan on bringing on board soon, notably Fanatec products such as the ClubSport V2 Xbox One Hub and the Fanatec CSR models.

That's actually what the FFB is like in the game. Almost no FFB on regular roads, but there's FFB when you're off-road.

I'm hoping it's a bug otherwise it's a joke.

edit: well sounds like you might actually have separate issue.
 
After playing and not even finishing the demo, I bought the standard digital version. $10 off, no tax, and free PC version makes it a better value proposition than Best Buy GCU ($47.99 + 9% tax). It takes a lot for me to buy digital when there's a physical alternative, but MS made this choice clearer for me. I like this cross-buy stuff. If I can get close to 4K60 (hell, even 4K30), my face will very likely melt. Happy to have the XB1 version too for the HDR.

I never buy digital when a physical copy is available for the same price but I did the same thing as you because of the play anywhere thing. It's a pretty smart and cool idea.

The funny thing is I moaned about the lack of physical ultimate edition for Forza 6 and then I went digital with FH3 when they actually have a physical ultimate edition. Oops.

I've only just started playing Horizon (thanks, GwG) & loving it, and will be getting Horizon 3 for sure. How do these rewards thingies work?

The more points you get by achieving goals (as you can see on the Rewards site) in each Forza game, the higher the tier you get, thus, the higher reward (ingame money) you can claim each Friday on the reward site (or the Forza Hub app on Windows 10 and Xbox One).

Just play to get more points by achieving goals :)

Also, when a new Forza releases, your tier can get you some ingame rewards to start with, such as money and free cars. They did not announce yet the FH3 ingame rewards.

How are they sending out Warthog codes?

By email or by Xbox Live message, or something else?

I wonder if they'll be doing the whole "here's 1 billion dollars" VIP rewards thing like they did with Forza 6. I loved that as a person that gets no fun out of the unlock grind in any game.
 
T10/PG send them to you as gift messages. The car goes into your garage when you claim it.

Excellent, thanks.

edit: Since we're talking about rewards, if anyone here is new the franchise go to the xbox store and download all of the free content you can find for past titles. It says "Paid DLC" on rewards, and I know I got a couple of paid packs for free, but I have the max points for DLC on all Forza titles by grabbing what was available at no cost. It might help put you into the next tier by the time the game is out.

Doing that now, ta ;)

Actually tempted to try to borrow Horizon 2 + Forza 6 from someone at work just to get some easy reward points now lol.
 
Will there be FH3 HDR Support for Windows 10?

Or just Xbox S?

All UWP pc titles that are advertised as having HDR on xbone s will also natively include support with nvidia pascal cards, don't know where amd stands on HDR right now

(FH3 and Gears 4 in the near future)
 
The game looks freaking amazing!!!!


But on a side note and not to derail the thread, but can someone create a thread for me Im unable to create one, but there are some new scorpio rumors that should bring a great discussion and which I believe is thread worthy.

Thanks to anyone who would create the thread for me!

Mods I apologize if this not acceptable.

Is there any monitor out there that supports HDR though?
 
Is there a way to move rewards from older 360 gamer profile to a PC one?

My 360 is pretty much dead and I created a new Xbox account when I installed Win 10 but I didnt see any option to link the old 360 profile
 
Rawnuts already had the OT Name way back when ithe game was officially announced. I don't know how he did the upside down letters but that's what we gotta go with.

Post whatever info you have in a more suited thread. A mod might split it.

doubtful, but I think you can play the game on said xbl account on pc even if you bought it on another account
 
I preordered the Ultimate Edition on Microsoft Store (Windows) last week and they just billed me for it. I hope that's a sign that PC players will get to preload it soon...

Okay, that's pretty cool. So when I buy a 4K HDR TV I can connect it to my GTX 1070 and get HDR in FH3?
