Ivan1997GTA Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Who else is testing this: I'm really hoping this version isn't broken like other UWP games. I would love to play a fully fledged Forza game on Windows. 18.8 GB? Huh, I thought the Apex edition would be much smaller than that.

Turan Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Badly optimized game. Even with everything low on a 720p resolution it can't give me a constant 60 fps. I hope they're still working on it since this is a beta.

DEALUX Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) What are your specs? Edit: I did some brief testing and I do get a stable frame rate at ultra settings in 1080p but I can't tell what the game is locked to. Judging by how responsive the game feels I think it runs above 30 FPS, possibly at a locked 60 for the most part, but I haven't tried any sort of frame rate counter. I did encounter some hitches and freezes, a big one in particular which lasted about 2-3 seconds. This was predictable given that the game is still in beta. Edited May 6, 2016 by Kristian.

TG_Stig Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 gt745m. I know photo mode bumps up graphics, but still the game manages to run smoothly on my laptop (feels like 40+ fps). It crashed a couple of times on my desktop though.

WHAT!? Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) I'm running an R9 290 and I've got it all cranked to ultra. Feels plenty smooth enough to play. I get slight jitters sometimes on certain parts of the Rio track. Runs fine otherwise. I had to install a hot fix for my video drivers in order to get it run at all though. Does anyone know what the deal is with Apex? Is it going to get carpacks? Is it going to be a fully fleshed out game, or is it just supposed to be a sample of what you can do with the game on console? I drive angry. Edited May 6, 2016 by WHAT!?

DEALUX Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I also ran the game on Ultra with 8X MSAA at 1080p 60 FPS. V-sync doesn't work very well according to Dxtory. It doesn't stay locked to 60 even in menus. The performance is, well...not so great. I do get a smooth 60 most of the time but there is definitely some hitching and even freezing on my i5 4460 and 980 Ti. This could be a CPU bottleneck\issue or Microsoft is sh*tting all over NVIDIA again. Still, it should be fixeable. GPU usage is not very high. The fact that I can use 8X MSAA without any difference compared to lower AA settings is insane but it is a racing game after all, which means it's not that complex. Plus you are supposed to be able to run this game at 4K 60 FPS on a single high end GPU. I will post a video regarding the performance on my set-up soon.

Lakitu Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Been having a poke in the game files for Apex and found everything is in zip files C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.ApexPG_1.0.6.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe However every zip file comes with "Unsupported Compression Method" error when extracting in 7zip.

DEALUX Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) I bought Forza 1, 2, 3, 4 and Horizon today for half the price of a new game. I'm really looking forward to doing a full playthrough of this series (hopefully on PC as well). It seems like the kind of racing game I've been waiting for all along.

TheMcSame Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) So... There's a NASCAR expansion coming out today/may already be out Homestead-Miami Speedway gets a mention in the trailer. A 10 hour 'campaign' As for the cars... Well... 2016 Chevy SS 2016 Toyota Camry 2016 Chevy Super Sport (I assume they're using a different engine or something, that or it's marketing talk to try and beef up the unique car list can't see many reasons for saying SS and then later saying Super Sport for another model) 2016 Ford Fusion Of course, each one gets many different variations in terms of decals, but in terms of unique cars, it's a pretty pathetic list which'll set you back $20. Might be worth picking it up if you REALLY want it or if you're a NASCAR fan, but other than that, I see no reason to buy it tbh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGem4uzZPFM Edited May 17, 2016 by TheMcSame Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/761168-forza-motorsport-6/page/7/#findComment-1068776675 Share on other sites More sharing options...
theGTAking101 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) I don't have Forza 6, but after hearing of the NASCAR DLC, I'll probably go pick it up. I'm glad that they implemented the drafting/slipstreaming mechanics for Daytona. Anyone try the expansion out yet? What is the AI like? One thing I don't like is the fact that they only added a few cars, but I think it'll be cool to have multi-classes races at Indianapolis against Indycars. Would you recommend it to a huge NASCAR fan? It's currently the only NASCAR game on next gen till this fall. But regardless of how good the game is, can we just take a minute to appreciate how amazing these graphics are?

theGTAking101 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 UPDATE: The DLC is pretty fun. I love the new campaign and new series they added. Homestead feels really great. A lot of people are complaining about the drafting being broken. There was a new update released but I haven't tried it yet. Does anyone know if that fixed it?

Wastelander (Suzuki) Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I love the music for the NASCAR dlc, if someone could upload an 5-10 minute YouTube video of the new NASCAR menu music I'd be set.

One of the reasons my friend hasn't been able to play it was because of this. Apex wouldn't register her wheel setup as a controller so she couldn't play. Racing with a keyboard on something other than Hot Wheels is just attrocious. *MURDOC* 1 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/761168-forza-motorsport-6/page/7/#findComment-1068873471 Share on other sites More sharing options...

*MURDOC* Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I have to emulate a 360 controller using a PS3 controller, but unlike every other game, it doesn't want to work.

Maxxi Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 These graphics are really good. I could even mistake them for real life if I didn't know any better. Are you solely looking at photos, or are you looking at gameplay as well? Players can easily tell the difference, because in order to run at 60 fps on console the graphics have been toned down a little. Photo mode can make the game look better than it plays, but it is still a beautiful thing.
