What are you playing?

Ubisoft nailed it with Motorfest and will give Forza something to think about because for me, it's a lot more fun. For some reason I got bored with FH 4 and 5, so this is a breath of fresh air.
I use a keyboard for these racing games and the handling is spot on, a great variety of cars and luscious surroundings. Fairly demanding on my RX 5700 at 45fps but I can probably dial it down a bit.
I'll probably buy it

The Crew 2 is very bad compared to Forza H5, but in terms of content TC2 is much better, it's hard not to get bored with FH5 and just do the weekly content for the extra cars. And even the way you get the cars is much more rewarding and fun, and not so frustrating in TC2. Forza just wants to make you come back every week with not much effort put on their part.
That's why we need competition.

Oops!
I didn't read the small print - the closed beta is now closed, which explains why the game is now greyed out in my Ubi library.

I tried to play Super Catboy but it was a slide show, so back to BeamNG I went, only to miss the corner and...

I really need a wheel..

That looks great.
So you play it at 4K? What are the frames, on average?

Ultrawide 1440p. Shadowplay records it at original res, but YouTube imports it as "4K". I don't dip below 90fps, most of the time well above 100 but it's Unreal Engine, so CPU utilization is poor, game is now mostly GPU bound at 3440x1440p most of the time anyway.

Was using Steelseries GG to record earlier but I noticed that it dropped memory clocks when instant replay was on (from 9500 to 9250), something that doesn't happen with Shadowplay. It also letterboxed ultrawide footage so it made switching to Shadowplay a must.

Some odd choices there. Your front driver side tire is "low" and the rest are overinflated for the terrain.

low

Slightly popped, I think.

I am not positive, but it appears they are game standard off-road tires, which I would imagine would have inflation levels to match.

Popped yes, and I'll look into the tire inflation thing, see if you can alter it without resetting everything else.

Not trying to get all sim weird here. More an oddity on my part from playing games like Snow Runner where a slightly different color or textured surface equates with basically not moving for the next half hour. Tire in question looked to be a slightly imperfect graphical depiction of how low of pressure that situation might've called for. By the end it was quite clear the tire was shredded.

Fairly sure my current PC isn't up to the task. Chomiq has made me consider making a few short videos or gif that would require some form of capture. Glad you are doing so.

The tire is actually for crawling (on rocks) but I use it for pretty much any other surface too. I tested it with lower pressure..

All the Grid games are my favourite racing games, but I didn't do too well in Havana. They kept bumping into me

Impressive. Is that a D-series or a mod vehicle?

Thanx! yeah, it's the Gravil D-series. Only mod is the map..which I'll have to check later when I'm home.

Edit: Map's called Barbents Gambling zone

Jagged Alliance 3 Demo

And Easy Red 2

Now this game was less than 10€ and it shows in graphics but that being said you can play single player as well as multiplayer. I'm really enjoying the sp mode atm. BF1942 nostalgia feeling

Spoiler: NSFW!

When I don't feel like puzzle games, RPG or shooting my way out of trouble, I find GRID (Legends and 2019) incredibly relaxing yet challenging at the same time, if that makes sense.
Some of the elimination races, like the one down at the Japan docks, make your heart beat a little faster. Oddly, still rewarding and relaxing.

Grid Legends is one of my favourite Arcade Racers. Redout 2 is also a Game that hearkens back to the Arcade.

Got a key for Tekken 8 Closed Beta - good time! Even though I win 1 out of 10 rounds at best, haha.

I had a quick look at Redout 2 and it made me dizzy, so what it would be like to play is probably beyond me. NFS Hot Pursuit takes me to the limit as it is

Did you like Fzero or Wipeout?
