Forza Horizon 3 will soon be getting a performance improving patch

Cool. I've already played FH3 a lot but was always annoyed at the lack of optimisation in certain areas. Hopefully this will turn a good game into a great one. I'm not sold on the whole Hot Wheels thing though; I think I'll just skip that.

It was half price not too long ago. There was a sale on the Windows store that was barely advertised, it was £33 if I remember correctly.

Correct. The store barely advertised whereas the xbox one had notifications for it in about 3 different spots. Just saying :D
 
I wonder if these CPU patches they are talking about is for Ryzen and Intel, or if they just improved it as a general case and not vendor specific.
 
Have you played FH3?
Is it as really that good

I've played it a fair bit, granted I'm not much of a binge gamer but it's my go to game and I got it on launch.

I can only compare it to some games I've played that were supposed to be £50.
 
Pretty sure this is what they have been working on for scorpio, as the performance jump for the 4k game play would of needed more than just brute force to do. Let's hope it bodes well for other optimisation with other games going forward

Why do you think it would need more than brute force?

Because of the way it runs pre patch, the jump to 4k at pc ultra settings (on scorpio as thats what its being touted as). I can't see it running well without this optimisation being done, on top of the hardware bump from the scorpio......which leaves me hopeful for games in the future being optimised better

Highly doubt the xbox version runs at ultra pc settings. If they can render 1080p on xbox one now and the scorpio has roughly 4x more compute units and faster memory, you'd think it could easily handle a simple resolution upscale right.
