There will be a Epitaph station this time according to the last video.

They have some pretty big metalcore acts under their belt: http://epitaph.com/artists (hoping for an Architects song in the selection!).

First I've heard that the metal station was going to be by Epitaph, but this has me really excited! ADTR, Architects, Defeater, TGI, Parkway Drive. Awww yiss. Some Architects in FH3 will be a nice touch given recent events.
 
So long as the classical station is back I'll be content. "Off" was also a good station.

Yup. I either kept the radio off the whole time or listened to the classical station. The only time I let the radio play was for the Bucket Lists because I felt like they always picked fantastic tracks that went with the event.

I can't wait to create our own Bucket Lists. I really hope they give us quite a bit of power because I really want to do an Australian version of this.
 
Oh shit there will be a metal station!? Thats awesome

So bouncing between metal and my own custom Eurobeat station whenever....This will be GOTY I'm calling it now lol

COOL VIBRATIONS

Have they said when UWP games will support SLI?

Would be nice for this game.

I believe Gears 4 will be supporting SLI so it's possible this game could include it too. I'm surprised we've seen nothing regarding recommended specs and graphical options yet.
 
Umm... So I don't know if this was already something everybody knew, but this is probably going to be one of few games to use the Xbox One controller trigger rumble on PC.

Just downloaded the Forza 6 beta to test out performance and port quality, and the trigger rumble threw me off guard because I haven't played an Xbox One game, or any game for that matter that uses that feature of the controller recently.

Damn amazing difference it makes. Even more hyped for Forza Horizon 3 now. That demo can't come soon enough. Also, is it news that the Ultimate Edition comes out early? I didn't know that before.

Edit: Do Quantum Break and Gears of War use this feature? Kind of wishing something like GTA V did this right now. I can't seem to find a definitive list of games that use this on PC, if there's even any other games that use it, because it appears that the API isn't available.
 
Yeah. The impulse triggers are amazing.

As for GTA V, doesn't it support the impulse triggers? Maybe not to the degree Forza does but at least rumble. Pretty sure it does but can't check since I own it on XB1 not PC.

Wants to outlaw technological innovation.
So I have not been paying attention to this game, what are the changes/new additions for Forza Horizon 3?

Holy sweet baby Jesus, those skies!!

I read somewhere that FH3 uses Rare's (Sea of Thieves) water technology. If that's the case then they're probably using their cloud formation tech as well. Rare LTD twitter recently posted a video of cloud formation but I can't find it.

I doubt that, since they filmed the Australian skies themselves.
Unless they combined the methods with Rare's tech.

When will the pre-load be available for us with the early access? Do I have to trigger it or will it auto download? never done this before on X1.

Ugh, "YouTube personalities".

Is there any gameplay footage, or even replays, of the giant city scape aside from the e3 trailer? Really curious about how detailed that environment is and how "PGR" it'll feel
 
Even if it doesn't come to fruition nothing of value would be lost as coming from FH2, it's insanely difficult to play with the wheel and not actually fun.

No its not. If you are able to play any racing game with a wheel you can play FH with a wheel. I never used a controller for FH1 or 2 and played with no assist. I won basically every race.

I'm so happy that the game looks way more colorful this time. Even in FH2 there was this slighty piss filter all over the place.
