Could be, it's a loss for sure anyhow. Driving the old Volvo Amazon got me drooling for the Saab V4 too, driving and upgrading these oldies is superfun.

How is the wheel support? I'm thinking of buying the Logitech G920.

Looking at the Fast and the Furious 1968 Dodge Charger... it seems the in game model is of a VERY lower quality from the photo mode model. Is this the case with all the cars. I'm going and checking right now.
Edit: Yeah it's like that with every car... Wow. Car models in game have a very low polygon count. Is there an Ultra setting for car models? Mine only goes to high.

TOD is not manually selectable (so it doesn't look like there is a way to start the race at a precise time such as 3pm for example), nor can you dictate time progression speed manually from what I've seen. Night racing is not available on all tracks either.
The weather/night stuff is not available on a lot of tracks where it would make sense as well. Time progresses to night time on every race track in the world so I don't know what their excuse there is. Wet weather racing also happens on a lot of tracks that it's omitted from - did you see the recent Monza F1 Gran Prix? The whole "no two races will be the same" stuff looks to be marketing BS.
It's a series of prebaked scenarios for the tracks it's available on and it would have been a lot of work/testing (and data) for them to extend that across all tracks. I would much rather they were honest about that fact rather than coming in hot with the whole "everything is fully dynamic this time" bullshit.
It really baffles me how the developer messed this up. What kind of "unbeatable" ai can be lapped multiple times?
The dev must know there are a lot of good forza players in the world and the single player campaign will just be one big yawnfest for them.
I don't care how pretty their game is, they have lost a purchase from me until they sort their ai out.

The game has a lot of cars from non-existing car manufacturers so it's definitely a licensing issue. Saab was bought by NEVS but the last news are that they have financial (and most likely legal) problems themselves and that they won't be using a Saab name on their new electric cars.
It's really a shame, we have classic Volvos in the game and adding Saabs would be awesome. :/

I unlocked collection tier 5 last night after one day of play.
Yes, even if you only play semi-regularly it won't take long at all to get to tier 5.

There's a mildly confusing graphics option you'll need to set. On the first video options menu, the one with resolution, you'll need to set the very top option (something like Dynamic Render Quality) to Ultra, that way you'll get the full LOD cars.
EDIT: missed the reply

Delete that file. Then download the full one from "ready to install".

And Forza Horizon 3, and just had to update drivers for a poorly performing UT4 that was fine until its latest patch, and a few of my games on Steam no longer work when they did the last time I played.
I'm sure things are better than they were, but you still get heaps of issues compared to console gaming. You gonna deny that, Mr Cranky?
Thanks.

Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.
If I install this now on my Xbox, when I get my X in November, will it be smart enough just to download the 4K patch or will I have to totally re-install?
I know its probably guess work at this point, I just dont know whether to hold off and just install it when I get my XB1X.

it's smart enough. MS has designed the system to do just that

I should add that I did this and it worked fine. But just before the early release my Xbox was once again saying it was just 100MB. It wasn't, and the full game unlocked fine.

I think I'll have to give up on the PC version for now. The loading problems are getting worse. Sometimes it just won't load the next track or take many minutes.
Not having that problem on Xbox.

Wasn't Destiny 2 having some issues on PS4? And PS4 Pro had some kind of silicone lottery going where some consoles were super loud and some whisper silent. I don't think it's much different to be honest, I hear the talk about how much tinkering there is on PC all the time but in my 4 years as a PC gamer I have just started the games and played them just like on console. Maybe I'm lucky, who knows, I've been playing FM7 on XB1 and PC on and off for a day now, using Play Anywhere, no heaps of issues anywhere, for me it just works. *shrugs*

Kinda, but I'm dealing with it because I know that once the campaign is done, my real enjoyment is with free play. That's where 90% of my time was spent with Forza 6 and that didn't have anywhere near as much configurability with free play at this game does.

Well, in all my years of owning consoles (currently X1), I've never had to worry about updating drivers and games, and worry about updated drivers breaking other games. I let MS worry about that, and I start the game knowing how it runs is how it runs for everybody. I still have a PC, just prefer console gaming these days.
Anyway, lets not derail. I'll be buying Forza 7 when I get my Scorpio Edition X1X, and I can't wait.

Can't disagree with you there, it's great to use both to have an alternative if needed imo, while FM7 is awesome on my triple screen PC I still can't wait to see what it'll look like on the Xbox One X at 4K. With FM7 you really can't go wrong wherever you play it, even the XB1 version is absolutely fantastic.

Did you noticed that some cars have missing rain drops during the storm?

I think I can confirm that particle effects look better on dynamic than the highest setting. Haven't got any comparison shots, but it seems like watersprays look a lot less like 2D textures now.

Make sure you're on the latest version of Windows, start the download and don't touch anything. Don't pause it. Don't let the PC sleep. Worked for me.
ToD and weather options are extremely limited.

Is Gsync not working by default??
I download the demo without issues but this is my fourth try with the complete game and has ended with an error again. After ~50 GB gives the error. DISGUSTING.
Microsoft, give yourself a fuckin 'time and fix your shit.
Mmmmm, I'm downloading the app to a disk with 1 TB free space but I have only 59 GB of free space in my windows main disk. Maybe is it the problem?

Dumb question but what's the trophy counter for at the top of the screen when viewing a championship? For example I just finished the first series in the first championship so now I am 1000/2500. What's the 2500 for?
