This genuinely looks like a PS3 game

Not that it's a bad thing, it seems like an alright budget arcade racer, but for a demo released in 2024 it's severely antiquated in its design, gameplay, and visuals. It really doesn't feel like that much has changed since TDU2, which I even played recently.

This is also why the performance being so slow is simply unacceptable. If they're gonna release the game in this state, the reaction will be brutal.

I know object quarity isn't great. But lighting is better than other racing games. And handling physics is better than TDU2, The crew series and Forza Horizon 4, 5 and Forza 7 and Dirt series for me. Yeah, performance is horrible. Somehow using FSR 2 decrease frame rate.

The anti aliasing in this game sucks ass, thats the majority of the bad look in this game.

Not true what you said are wrong, the handle are good then FH4, but not good then FH5 or GT7. Iplay racing games with wheel SIM, not controller.
TDU SC are good handling but not good like FH5 for manual with clutch, all racing games for me the best are GT7 for wheel simulator

One of these days people will put 2 and 2 together and realize that how it looks depends on their PC

Bruh, I have a gaming rig, everything maxed out. This game just looks dated as hell.

Dude, either you are smoking pipe or you running the game on low.
Game looks alright. Not the best looking game out there, but nowhere near TDU2 visuals.

It's not an apples to apples comparison, since FH is less dense than TDU SC, but I would say it holds well against FH5. Textures look better than Forza

I didn't say that the graphics look like TDU2. But this game is overall so similar to TDU2 that you could tell me that it came out in 2013 and I would've believed you. This doesn't feel like a sequel that has taken advantage of those 14 years of evolution in video game graphics and racing genre in general.

Bruh, its a game set to release at the end of 2024 that's been made "PC First", neither you nor i have the hardware to run this game maxed out, that hardware doesn't exist yet.

What i was eluding to is that the game is clearly just going "eeehhhh, ima turn this and this and this off to get to a somewhat acceptable framerate" or "ehhh, the GPU doesn't understand these shaders i'm giving it" or something along those lines.

YOUR GPU IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH
CHANGING GRAPHICS SETTINGS WONT MAGICALLY CHANGE THAT

Sorry for the reality check sport.

i't doesn't look like a ps3 game, ps3 games look better than this.. it looks like a mobile game made for children, like zero effort on lighting and dynamics, polygons or anything..

Dude, you are wrong too. This is not Crysis. The game doesn't have the level of detail to require a 5090 to run properly.
Optimization work still needs to be done.
Besides, I run the game at native 1440p High settings at 45-65fps on a 6950XT

Yeah, I don't think that the game being set in China is a coincidence either, lol.

Why did they even require you to create an account to play a demo anyway? I gave it a fake email address, they can eat me.

i was surprised to see how awful it looked on all max settings. 40 fps on a 7900XT and the LOD of a ps3 game. it was definitely made expecting people to use upscaling/FXAA to hide the ugly jagged edges that makes the game look like its running at quarter native resolution. 50 minutes is all i could give it which is upsetting considering how excited ive been for it

...Anti Alisasings purpose is to hide those jagged edge, all games look jagged without it at normal resolutions. Its just that this game doesnt have very good anti anti alisasing options atm
