It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
I think the score and that point is valid, but it reads weird. Like its been poorly-translated, or it was written by a student or something.

Great review as usual, lookin stunning

With multiple people having issues on PC (again) I'd say it's definitely the game. Probably something to do optimisation and their decision to run on 1 CPU core again. Forza Horizon 3 had a similar problem, until they patched it to use the CPU better.
Great review as always thank you, Karak
Are you as the author of the thread supposed to censor which review scores are allowed in your opening post?
I was wondering what the "feature that may but probably won't make it in" was...

After looking at the user name... not surprised.
Is there a legit reason for why they'd lock it to a single core? Reminds me of the issues I had with GTA IV and the solution was to lock it to a single core. But that was years ago.

oops, wrong thread..
Forza Motorsport 7 is not limited to running on one core. Forza Motorsport 7 uses as many cores as are available on whatever system it runs on, whether that is a 4- to 16-core PC or the 7 cores available on Xbox One.
Certainly doesn't fully utilize all cores if the demo (or launch FH3, or Apex) is any indication.

What a great review. Are all of this person's reviews like this?

He's the best reviewer on the web, imo and yeah, all of is reviews are on the side of fantastic.
OT, delighted for T10. They seem to have knocked this out of the park for FM7.
They really are the best!
I really hope you guys get the frame pacing and hitching issues sorted out soon. I've been itching to play a new racer.
Yup, he's one of the few reviewers I trust. Even if given a review copy, he still purchases the game so he can better assess whether or not the game is worth the asking price. It's awesome how dedicated he is to his viewers.
Also in case you didn't know, he's the same Karak that posts here on NeoGAF.

Will this guy ever face the ban hammer? He's been trolling Xbox and Forza threads with BS for years now.
Trotting out a PR line is fine and all but it still doesn't answer the question as to why the PC version runs like crap in the demo, is this fixed in the full game?
So this is tempting me to take the plunge on XB1.
I put in tons of time on F3 and F4 with friends.
Question from someone who hasn't played Forza since then --- do they still have the kick ass used car market (sold by players) and car painting options? I remember that 5 did not have that stuff. I lost my mind on the F3/4 used car shops.
thanks

Bummed to hear there are micro stuttering issues on PC.

Not on all PCs, it's very smooth on mine and my friend's, it basically runs like the demo, or a bit better.

Mine is very smooth too, even at 4k.

This is so weird that they send out review copies so late. Is it the "multiplayer" excuse? MP doesn't seem much different from before, wouldn't make sense.
Did this ever happen with a Forza game??

Yeah it's fine on my rig too, I have a G-sync screen in the middle though which probably hide some stuttering I guess.

I think, if you really unlock Forza's physics with a wheel on "simulation steering" without any assists, the tire and suspension physics are
However, it's definitely a sim - for me. And you need to define "sim" for that argument to have any real value.
A "sim" for me is a game that doesn't model its physics in a way that contradicts real word physics intentionally. It also should be up to a certain standard of physics simulation (otherwise it might conveniently not model certain aspects to make the game easier and arcadier). For example a game with rFactor1's physics released today would definitely be a sim. A game with "Indianapolis 500: The Simulation" physics would not, both were very "sim" when they were released.
By that definition, Forza is a sim. Unlocked it's also really hard to drive compared with hardcore PC simulators (because it's bad-wrong, not because it's hardcore).

It plays great with my thustmaster tx, very powerful ffb. No idea about the physics though.
Oh ok. I knew the name seemed familiar. Definitely gonna put him on a list reviews to check out.
Really well spoken and put together.
On topic, congrats to T10, looks like another great iteration.
Regarding your question, I believe the Auction House that you're referring to will go live a week or two after launch (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). All the painting options you remember are still there, and if anything, they've been improved since the older games in terms of options.
Thanks! Now how do I hide this from my wife....I could tuck the S behind our TV stand and just tell her I'm playing PS4.
Looks Indy/F1 cars use all of the steering rotation like FM6. Meanwhile production cars use less.
Porsche should have over 900 degrees but the demo only uses about 600.
These F1/Indy cars should be using only about 360 degrees.
Why does Turn10 do this?
Never mind, it would seem that visually the tires stop changing direction on production cars but the turning circle still gets tighter. I also remembered I can easily set my wheel to 360 degrees for thr Formula cars. All is good.
I think most people get that it is a simulation of sorts but not the most realistic or hardcore.

I just saw a 6/10...so thatll make things difficult.
So I've come up with a theory for this actually.
I think the reason thelastword has survived so long is because all mods put him on ignore long before becoming mods.
It was literally just being thrown into question in this very thread.
It should be simple, but apparently it isn't.

Seems like there was some confusion about that, as Turn 10 issued an update about the CPU Core usage, saying is was miscommunication and it does run on more cores.
http://wccftech.com/turn-10-forza-motorsport-7-one-core/
Still doesn't explain why it runs bad with microstutter again, just like Horizon 3 did.
Hopefully they sort it fast.TylerDurden4321

Collective GAF intelligence predicted it's gonna review the highest, but only by one meta-point:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=249163526&postcount=100
Actually.. why not post the pics:
Edit: Project CARS 2's PC meta-score is at exactly 86 right now as foreseen by GAF , will probably stay there.
GAF collectively doesn't know shit, lol.
With Horizon 3 (which everyone seems to love unconditionally) scoring 91, I'd be very surprised to see Motorsport hit 90 tbh.

Latest Nvidia driver disables GSync in Forza 7, so it's not working, and even if I force it through Nvidia Inspector my screen stays at 120Hz (I use the built-in overlay of my screen to see at which rate it runs).
Too early but Forza Motorsport 7 is currently with a 93 critic score on MC.

That seems like a weird thing to cap in a driving simulation, you would think that they would match them together the best they can.
Maybe to help avoid clipping through the fender in case you had the wheel fully cranked and the front wheel was compressed up in side the well. I would guess simulating fender rub wasn't a priority.

Aha, I'm rarely up to date on those things, I have the 384.76 driver, there G-sync definitely works because that was the only thing I activated and it went from lots of stuttering to smooth as butter.
Can't blame nvidia though, Turn 10 needs to make it run great even on normal screens.
