DLSS 2.0 but not DLSS 3.0? What? Why?

Cross play and progression between windows store and steam? Win if true.

I'm guessing this means Starfield doesn't have it.

brace yourselves for "Nordschleife isnt even ready for launch" threads guys

cant wait to finally play the game

Same thinh happened with FM 5, if I remember correctly. Nordschleife was added in later.

Sucks as it's my all time favorite track, but also nice to know that they are redoing it "from the ground up".

Will grab it on Game Pass on PC. Probably won't spring for the Early Access personally as I've bounced off Forza Horizon each time I tried it out. Hopefully a more sim-style racer and the different progression grabs me more

Yeah isn't this basically an MMO-lite? What does a 'save' even mean in that context, haha.
Click to expand...

That means that your profile (save) exists only in the cloud. That's why it's easy for them to implement cross-save between different platforms.

I don't care for any of the online stuff and much rather have a game that (if it's good) I can enjoy years from now. Like, I still have 360 hooked up to my TV only because I play Forza Motorsport 3/4 on it...

We are in an inflation recession, most people aren't buying super hardware and sporting way overpriced rtx 40 series cards (the only cards that support dlss3). Why have support dlss 3 when most won't even have it. Dlss 2 covers all the rtx 20x0 and 30x0 and 40x0 lines of cards (meaning your 4080 can still run dlss2 along with the other cards).
Now if they were to offer both sure, but usually they don't do that (although they really should, make everyone happy, not like MS is hurting for money to do it.)

Last I remember when dlss 3 was in a game, they didn't have dlss 2 or 1 so the majority got screwed there.
Also chances are if you have the money to be using top end hardware and 4k monitor you probably can get 60 fps without dlss, especially in a game that only needs a 1060 for min requirements and a 2080ti / 3060ti as recommended.
The people with the lower/older cards are going to need dlss more anyway.
If they could offer both options then that would be ideal.

At least i would expect them to optimize this game. I had no problem getting 60+fps with Forza 7 back when I had a 1060, I hope it's the same with this game and a 2000/3000 series card

I'm probably completely wrong, but isn't DLSS 3 just 2 with frame generation? I thought frame gen could be turned on via software (NCP).

I don't have a 40xx card and DLSS 3 has always sort of confused me.
Click to expand...
you're right. DLSS 3 is DLSS 2 with frame gen. technically, it's FG and Low Latency but DLSS 2 has low latency.

you can't use FG unless you have a 4000 card. maybe i read it wrong but you can't turn on FG in NCP if you have a 2000-300 card. FG isn't enabled in NCP but in game.

Yeah, you're fucking right. Let's halt all the progress because some people have it tough right now.

Yeah I mean I know what cross save is. I was just commenting on the weirdness of saying a game has cross-save in a game where you don't "save" the game.

LOL... you obviously didn't read where I said it would be ideal if they included both, but these companies usually cheap out and only provide one or the other.
If there is a choice, of course they are going to go with what is going to help more people. 4000x series cards also work with dlss 1, and 2.

Then again, this is M$.. If they can afford to spend billions for ABK and Bethesda, what is a few weeks time and dollars to put in more optimizations and settings.
People shouldn't be giving ms a free pass. We know how much they have. It's why when they cut stuff, I would give other studios the benefit of the doubt, not ms, as they have the funds.

Amen. It's not some random single person first game indie project we're talking about here. There should be no mercy for them.

This is a big issue and why i hate always online games. People are like "just go play the new ones", but they don't realize that these games are a slice of time.
The new games may have shinier graphics, but not the cars from that era.
I still have need for speed shift 1 and 2 installed on my pc and steam deck as I love the feel of speed and damage from that game, I can't get it anywhere else, quite the same.

Also have the older gt games for the car collections. GT7 doesn't have the older and special cars from gt6, and under. Some brands aren't even in the newest game, like Lotus.

Glad this game is on steam, I just hope they patch the always online stuff out when they shut the servers down, but I doubt it.

PC is having a pretty damn good end to the year. I don't have time for all this, wish I was 20 again with all the time and stamina youth brings to have a chance to play all of it.

DLSS 3 can still come later.

Forza Horizon 5 did not have DLSS nor FSR at first.
They introduced DLSS2 and FSR in an update, and later added DLSS3 FG in another one.

So it can still come to the game, hopefully with the new 3.5 features.
