I can only get so erect PG!

"The other thing that's a surprise about Britain is how vertical it is. We don't think of, like, the Swiss Alps or the Rockies like we had with the first game, which was set in Colorado. But this is our most vertical world ever. [Forza Horizon 3 add-on] Blizzard Mountain was a big experiment to see how vertical we could go. Now we've got all of that and more, because there is a lot of verticality throughout — especially the northwest parts of the map, which are the lake country, and going up into Scotland.

I just hope that for first fucking time in forever in the racing games, there is going to be a Trance station in this game. Since UK has some of the best talents in this genre (Ian Standerwick, Solarstone, Gareth Emery, Ashley Wallbridge (would not mind CVNT5), Simon Patterson, Craig Connelly, etc...) I know that UK is a birth place of DnB, but maybe it's time to add another station....

Well anyway, day 0, looked absolutely fantastic.

Hell yeah boy. I hope so to. If not I have Spotify

Most excited game I am looking forward to on my X1. World looks really good! Going through FH 2 right now and it's pure fun.

I've been playing so much FH3 since they showed this. There is so much content in that game especially with the Blizzard and Hot Wheels stuff. This setting looks incredible and I'm really excited.

I'm contemplating between pre ordering this or not since I have game pass but I've always own every Horizon ultimate edition

Groove may be dead, but the Groove station in Horizon 3 still allows you to stream music from your OneDrive. I assume they'll have the same functionality in Horizon 4.

Didn't follow the entire topic, so sorry if I'm asking something already discussed. Is 60 fps something alternative to 4K on X or will it be full 4K 60 fps? Very impressive if so.

I wonder what the incidence of people being in both the " But I wanted Japan" and "Fed up of driving on the wrong side of the road" camps is. And how confused they'll be if they get Japan next time. :)

Yeah, this is my game of E3, one of the most ambitious racers ive seen, and by one of the most talented racing devs around.

60fps mode is gonna be intresting. Forza games are known for a solid lock framerate. Maybe they let it go with the 60fps mode because its a option. Or they mananged to have a lock 60fps in 1080p. That would be crazy.

It's crazy to me that you could pay for just one month of Game Pass and completely finish a game of this quality.

On the X I see no reason why it wouldn't be possible.

Based on Playgrounds previous games I expect nothing other than a solid framerate on the console versions, even if it means they might have to sacrifice a few graphics options for the 60fps mode.

Hopefully it also bodes well for the PC version at 60fps in terms of frame pacing.

Cant wait to play this.
So pleased there's a 60 fps option for the X, its pretty jarring switching between Motorsport 7 and Horizon 3

One thing that will annoy me is people who get the ultimate edition will be able to play early while I wait for gamepass. Mostly because it comes out on a Tuesday and I hate the fact games come out on Tuesdays

I'm just going to buy the ultimate edition.

It's pretty much a tradition for me at this point with the horizon games.

I'm considering buying the hard copy too just for the sake of it. I've literally been playing Horizon 3 on and off to this day since it came out, the games always have a shit ton of singe player content and it never gets old.

Not sure why that would be crazy. I run FH3 on a 1060 and 3570k at 1440p 90+ FPS. X can definitely do 1080 60.

I never bought 3 as I only have limited game time, but I'll most likely get this especially since it will be on GamePass right?

Every first party game is on Game Pass going forward. You should still Get FH3 though and Blizzard Mountain, it's cheap now and you probably won't need another game until 4 comes out if you've got limited time. Easily the best racer of this generation so far.

I can't believe we'll be getting an open world racing game at 60fps on consoles.

I'm not even sure there ever was an open world game period running at that framerate on consoles. I mean besides, you know, Zelda on NES/SNES and all that old stuff.

BASED Playground Games.

Metal Gear Solid 5. Although that game's open world is much, much less complex.

You probably don't need another racer ever again if you get 3 and 4.

Now THIS is the upgrade I want from the Horizon series. 3 was great fun, but the biggest additions for me were simply the custom radio and cross-play. This is a whole other level. Hype has raised back up after reading these details that weren't shown on-stage.

Out of interest, why does the UK feel meh?

Well I hope to be proved wrong, but my picture of UK is not that it is a beutiful and interesting landscape to begin with, its not like UK is known for great tourism in Europe due to its country side, mainly London for its shopping.

I been a few times in UK and driving around on business trips, the landscape is flat, not beutiful forests and just brownish, went from north to south, down in south east there was a area called Kent which was quite nice with forest creating a tunnel over the road

Although australia is also flat, but since I lived there, that area was natually more interesting for me and also looks awesome and a place where you "wanna be"

As a Swede I was more hoping for an Asian country

anyway game looks really nice, hoping for very populated roads with real drivers and a way to interact with every one of them

So I was a little bummed out by the UK setting at first, but I've changed my mind:

-The game isn't just a slightly better FH3 in the UK. Really seems like massive improvements and additions this time around.
-On the bright side, it's very likely we get Japan on Next Gen Xbox, in all of it's glory: More overgrown touges, and bigger cityscapes. 60fps default probably.

Is there an edition that includes all the expansions/add-ons?

Fuck me...this looks amazing. I own all three of the previous Horizon games and each sequel completely blows the previous game away. Playground doesn't "coast" along at all, they iterate and take risks and just go beast mode every game. Mad respect to Playground Games.

Semi related: I fully believe that Playground is gonna blow us away when they get to reveal the non racing game they've been working on.

For 3 unfortunately no. The Ultimate Edition does not come with the expansions but I think the expansion pass can be bought fairly cheap, and there should be one bundle that is base game + Hot Wheel frequently on sale. For 4 the Ultimate Edition comes with everything including two expansions.
