Is it up now?

 

Yes.

Great idea for a thread tbh, keeps it separate. Sadly, stuck at work distracted by posts about the demo

 

copied my post from the other thread:

First race impressions, Menu's are gorgeous, model looks awesome in there, nice upgrade in game graphics not mind blowing though, replays much improved, feels like fm2 with a bit more weight to the cars, sounds pretty nice.

Disable notifications because it becomes a complete slide show when someone signs in.

 

I'll be on this tonight

 

A few worrying things posted there, I thought from the gameplay videos it looked a lot better than FM2 in game. Also what do you mean by slideshow with notifications? Is it really that bad?

What is the the size of the demo? Maybe compressed car models?

 

I can't even find the demo on the Market place online. Go to the right page but only have videos .

 

It does look better particularly in the track detail, but it still very much looks like Forza jaggies and all. Its nice to look at though so don't worry! Will move it to the plasma in a min to see if that smooths it out some.

And by slide show I mean 2 people signed in at different times and I literally saw a frame for a second waited saw a frame waited etc and nearly crashed from the stutter.

 

Also cockpit view is really nice ( I will race in this view) but you cant look around it and when you look left/right you get a clean view point without window frames and doors etc.

 

What?

Could you post a screenie?

 

...

 

I got it on the Market place fine, under 'New Arrivals'.

 

Demo should be here

Game marketplace > Game demos > New arrivals

 

Is it cockpit view only on the demo?

 

All views.

 

I would imagine that is a demo limitation to bring the size down as all the vids including the driven demo's by players has shown full cockpit all around when panning... If it doesn't I will be greatly disappointed!
