Well, I've been up late working on a project, and intermittently checking my son's Xbox with GP I set to New Zealand. 20min ago I couldn't play the Standard version of FH5, but now it's past midnight in New Zealand and I checked again. It's time for you beautiful bastards to join in. Your Forza GAF friends are waiting for you in Mexico!
but first, a quick trip to New Zealand...

Yes its very impressive. Having been to Mexico 6 times myself though I didn't feel the ruins in Tulum looked like the real life location. Its a stunning place IRL and I was looking forward to seeing how they had recreated it.

Has anyone trouble playing with friends on PC ? We can't manage to join each others. Also There seems to be texture loading issues on PC (everything set to max, SSD, 3070/3080) with far away texture not loading properly half the time (very low res) or having rainbowish noise on some road/rocks textures, or some wierd texture/shadow pop in 10-20m in front of the car while driving (mostly on wet roads)

Yeah I'll be playing via Gamepass so I can swap between the two. Just wondering what others prefer at this point as my options seem to each do something well, but also leave something out.Buy from MS store and play on both problem solved. But HDR in this game is really incredible and makes a huge difference but on the other hand you can play 60fps and at higher settings on pc than on your One X.

Got to the 2nd area. Game is super fun and polished. Honestly extremely similar to FH4, which I loved.
I've got some McLaren 2018 thing that's tuned to 999 ranking and it's a pretty swell car.

I almost used the car voucher on the Shelby Cobra, but while thinking about it and doing orher stuff I got one from a single random Wheelspin lmao.
So might use it on the GT40 MK II, since thats 11 million CR and Ive always bought and used that in every Forza it appeared in.

Holy crap this game is awesome. At last a next gen showcase for the Series X and man alive is the Dolby Atmos support the best so far

Just started playing, does this game not have HDR on Xbox? Because my TVs not saying it does.
It does. Hdr10 and Dolby vision
Dusktildawn48

Does the Xbox indicate this anywhere? Because there's definitely not HDR settings in the game itself.

does this apply on PC as well?

Indeed there are no HDR settings in-game - but as soon as i fired it up, i saw the Dolby Vision logo so Dolby is def working (and its pretty fkn good)

Weird, my TV always say it. But it isn't right now. I'm gonna disable HDR in my Xbox settings and restart the game too see if it looks any different.

Hmm have you updated the X and also the game itself? Maybe check that first - they only enabled Dolby 2/3 days ago i think. Im playing on a CX with latest firmware and have no issues.

Turned off HDR settings on Xbox, looks significantly better. Let me check for an Xbox update.

Told myself I'd stick with quality mode. Made the mistake of just seeing what performance mode looked like, welp no going back now.

How does one get their pictures. Idk but FH5 is first time I've was interested in photo mode.
I ain’t no photographer but loving the photo mode in this game.

Up on d-pad for photo mode, save and open the picture and then click the screen shot button.
If you have the Xbox app it sends the photo right to your phone.

It’s the battle royale mode, whole map with shrinking area. You can find car drops and challenge other players in elimination head 2 head races. Once the final ring is reached is a final race to be the winner.
I hate it.

Only reason I asked was because there is an achievement. Sounds like something that would frustrate me tbh

Do I need a certain app to share pictures without it showing up as a link on neogaf?

Hello Eric. Links from Google Photos will change so even grabbing the direct link won't work. You're best using something like imgur.com or abload.de etc. and then direct link to the image itself.

Are you guys suffering from the "can't change the radio station" bug? Saw multiple reddit posts talking about it and I can't change it either.
