I really dislike how candyland turns off motion blur in all their PC video comparisons.

Horizon is amazing on X1.
But compared to pc (and we're looking at 1080p60 shitty video from youtube) it is a blurry "mess".
Hopefully the game will be performing fine on a great variety of setups, and not only the highest end.

Hmm, looks like there's something wrong with the anti-aliasing (or maybe the way the buffers are combined) on the PC version.

Master Race is superior by all objective measures.

Yeah, that looks terrible.
I think it's the carbon fiber weave creating a shimmering effect. It does make it look noisy.Hmm, looks like there's something wrong with the anti-aliasing (or maybe the way the buffers are combined) on the PC version.

Nah, something definitely wrong. Just look at the road side barriers in the first comparison in the video.

I got banned for jokingly saying someone was part of the keyboard master race, and ever since I see it said all the damn time.

Yep, turning off motion blur is criminal.

This is surely the 'default' ultra setting, where dynamic shit is still turned on right. Plus low AA?
F6 Apex looks a lot cleaner than this when configured correctly and I would expect FH3 to have the same graphics options. More or less.

It's clearly turned off or low, like 2xMSAA.
Also, glad to know the cars are truly the higher LOD versions on PC. I've been missing that, especially after seeing some weird LOD models on FH2 like the Fiesta ST which looked like some panel gaps were drawn on.
Compare the wipers, the Xbox version has the caps covered up, and in the "nose" area of the car there's a clear seam that splits the reflections. The PC one looks much smoother and more accurate which will look great in photomode.
Also, anyone else feel so giddy finally seeing a Horizon game at 60?

For a 30pfs game on console the game feels silky smooth. Great tech at work.

Shouldn't the PC version have HDR as well? Heard something like that on a stream.

Both versions look outstanding other than I'm not sure what's going on with the AA in the PC version. The game supports MSAA and yet they still have a good deal of jaggies here. I wonder if they forgot to turn off the Dynamic Rendering feature?
Either way the PC port is looking great and it's incredible they were able to get those level of visuals on a 1.3 TF GPU

Let me play in windows 7. 
Some of my best games only run at 1080p.
Edit: Looks good on both systems, I'm not much into racers (although was a huge Motorstorm fan), but I'm going to have to grab this up at some point.

I bet they are using 'dynamic Ultra', where all the individual settings are dynamic. You need to select custom then manually set everything to Ultra to configure it properly for max graphics.
Modern day game journos SMH.
Edit - Actually no, I'm wrong. I see they show the graphics menu at the end. Well that image quality is surprising to say the least with 8xMSAA. even at 1080p.

Yeah, anti-aliasing looks non-existent on PC.

Yea that's definitely not at 8x MSAA.
I think you'll do 1080p/60, maybe not on ultra.
I wonder if my i5-3570k/GTX970/16GB will be able to handle this well. I feel like my rig is starting to fall behind

60FPS is the real difference. Especially in driving games.
The big thing is certainly the framerate.
After that the X1's lack of AF sticks out again, especially in a racing game where you often stare at distant flat surfaces at a low angle. Why don't console games use AF again? Did we ever get an answer on that?
The LOD differences you'd probably never notice while playing.

Says 8x MSAA at the end of the video.
Here's a better side by side. Reflections are sharper on the PC, but XB1 is using some kind of custom AA to get those hood lines so clean.

How would that cause aliasing problems? There's people who don't like the softness that comes with FXAA, but it shouldn't cause the grainy, shimmering edges we see here.

Lucky you can't see 30/60 fps difference.

Yeah, just give me a button to flip that says "XB1 graphics with 100% constant 60fps" for the PC version and I'll be happy, don't need additional posh with my GTX 970, Xbox version looks totally fine.
It will handle the game fine, someone has the game with similar specs and it ran great for themI wonder if my i5-3570k/GTX970/16GB will be able to handle this well. I feel like my rig is starting to fall behind
I do have the 6GB 1060. You may be disappointed with the results. I'm pumped it runs at all on my system.
Here is default high settings unlocked framerate.

There's a LOT of pop in in the jungle areas, at least in the demo.
Why would you not want sharper reflections, shadows better AF and higher lod?

Aside from being 1080p and using MSAA I find the visuals rather underwhelming.
The foilage pop-in, "dem trees", the lack of AF, aggressive lod swaps, shadow draw-in, low poly car models, dysmal reflections, weak weather effects.
A collection of cut backs to create an open world. (i know, i know, Horizons purpose, but still)
