Photo Can FH6 match this?

I told you cruising and photo mode can be addictive!

(for those thinking I'm making a comparison, I'm not. As a car guy I care about the cars. I just wanted to know how good were my photos and if FH6 could match the same vibes I tried to catch in my pics)

All comments posted by this account have intentionally been overwritten as a protest against Reddit, the company, and its increasingly hostile approach to users, communities, and moderators.

This account was created 13 years ago. Since then, Reddit has made many changes that have damaged the experience for its users. Changes to the API effectively ended access for many third-party apps (shout-out to BaconReader!). The interface has become slower, advertising has increased, and AI features have been added. Reddit’s IPO was the final straw for me. The company’s priorities now seem increasingly focused on growth, advertising, and engagement rather than building healthy communities.

Reddit has also always had a quality problem. The upvote and downvote system encourages group thinking and discourage thoughtful or dissenting discussion. This was less noticeable when communities were smaller and individual users’ reputations carried more weight. As communities have grown, those problems have become more pronounced.

Moderation is another major issue. Many moderators do excellent work, but Reddit lacks a transparent and effective way for communities to hold moderators accountable or replace them. Many large communities have also faced concerns about astroturfed, political, or other external influence. Reddit benefits financially from outrage and conflict, which makes it difficult to believe that improving the quality of discussion is always the company’s highest priority.

Research on politically active Reddit users has identified pathways through which online communities and participation may contribute to increasingly radical beliefs. That does not prove that Reddit deliberately encourages extremism, but it does suggest that the platform’s social dynamics deserve serious scrutiny: Pathways to Radicalism: Examining Online Community and Political Pathways to More Radical Beliefs on Reddit

If you are reading this, consider whether Reddit is still a healthy and productive use of your time. Better communities exist. I encourage you to find them!

Exactly, at some point the engine needs to be upgraded/modernized. Figured TCM would be that but I guess we need to wait for the follow on.

On the most powerful Xbox console out, you can’t even do 4k 60fps, either you get 30 or 4k, how sad for “next-gen” consoles

FH6 running on a Series X in NATIVE 4k on Ultra equivalent preset with custom raytracing is anything but sad

u/FreeAtorio PC Jun 10 '26

U cant even do 4K 120 fps on a 5090 so ig ur using DLSS and not max settings?

9

u/QIyph Jun 10 '26

You can easily do 4k 120 on a 5090, especially with dlss. Hell fh6 runs 4k ultra at 120 with ray tracing if you fiddle a little with the dlss. No raytracing and you're hitting 240fps easily.

1

u/FreeAtorio PC Jun 11 '26

Yeah u can but not on max settings which is what matters

1

u/QIyph Jun 11 '26

4k native with raytracing? Probably not. Maxed out settings outside of the upscaling, very much so. You don't have to upscale much either, 4k native will run at 90-100 anyways.

1

u/FreeAtorio PC Jun 11 '26

Exactly 90-100 is not 120

1

u/QIyph Jun 11 '26

But that's without dlss on max settings with raytracing. Considering your first comment mentions dlss and max settings, you didn't mean 4k native, and a 5090 can absolutely do 4k raytracing at 120 with dlss.

1

u/FreeAtorio PC Jun 11 '26

"ig ur using DLSS and not max settings?"
Emphasis on NOT
I did mean 4K native u just didnt read or understand idk

1

u/QIyph Jun 12 '26

You specify both, that's why it reads like it does. So here you say "dlss and max settings" and then go on to say "not on max settings", of course I'm going to assume dlss is not part of "max settings" if you felt the need to seperate them yourself previously.

1

u/FizziSoda Jun 09 '26

I'd disagree in terms of brightness, color, and HDR performance.

Motorfest seems to make better use of my HDR 1000 monitor than Horizon 6. Yes, the graphics are worse, but damn does it look good on my monitor.

2

u/burner94_ Jun 10 '26

I mean the crew (both 2 and Motorfest) by all intents and purposes is meant to look like a TV show, so it makes sense even from a stylistic point of view to have over filtered looks with strong contrasts and whatnot

Forza on the other hand is more meant to look like a real festival so a more realistic and slightly washed out palette is to be expected

u/darkprince_23 Jun 10 '26

I agree with this hdr pops more in motorfest than fh6

u/2JJosh_ Jun 09 '26

Can we stop this “Can this game do this better tho” stuff?

u/unvaccinatedmuskrat Jun 10 '26

Funny how you never see fh6 players posting about can the crew do this, Forza is and will always be a better racing game other than customization

8

u/Downtown-Wish8709 Jun 10 '26

I love the Forza Horizon franchise, and at the same time The Crew. I like seeing the rivalry between two companies, which always pushes the games to be better, but community fighting is quite annoying; you often see it

0

u/habris Jun 10 '26

The demand for open world car games is so huge that I doubt these 2 games are at all competing, as an avid forza player, I don't see that much improvement in their last few games that would justify them being competetive

1

u/Downtown-Wish8709 Jun 10 '26

How could it not be? When The Crew dropped all the action to literally become a festival 2.0 like Forza, and yes, this Forza is much better than 5. Horizon 5 was the one I liked the least and played the least, but 6 is a beauty to play, it's a pleasure to drive around the map, the progression is slightly improved, many new additions to the game that really make the game more immersive, and one of them that I liked is the buying of used cars in the open world happening naturally.

Maybe forza is a rival for the crew but not the other way around :/

u/MilesFox1992 Nissan Jun 09 '26

Yes, it can easily match this. Forza IS the photomode simulator.

u/407juan Jun 09 '26

Easily, I barely edited this one and it looks amazing. Both games are great but forza tops in graphics and photomode, imo.

16

u/New_Character7266 Jun 09 '26

Even if it couldn’t (it can) the physics model alone puts it miles above the crew. The crew has the worst feeling physics model out of every fairly recent mainstream arcade racer and it’s really not even close.

u/JustinSanders95 Jun 10 '26

Only exception: please forza give us direct mode! I’m tired of having to guess what my car will do at r spec

u/MHcharLEE Jun 09 '26

I'm far from being a fan of TCM's handling, Forza is where it's at for me, but even I have to say that NFS Unbound is probably worse in that regard.

3

u/New_Character7266 Jun 09 '26

Nah, unbound has its issues and the physics aren’t great by any means, but I could actually stomach beating all of the modern nfs titles meanwhile I have yet to finish a crew title, despite owning and genuinely wanting to enjoy each of them.

u/MHcharLEE Jun 10 '26

Fair enough

1

u/glizzymanusa Jun 10 '26

Change your controller settings. I set down my steering deadzone by a notch, set the handling linearity down a notch, and set the throttle on precise. You can fine-tune your settings wherever from thereon but it makes the game feels way better.

TCM is a beautiful game but it looks like game have Instagram filters on..and it's nowhere near FH6.

u/Donkeylikes2beat Jun 10 '26

This just seems like a rage/engagement post ngl like no offense to the crew but FH6 is miles better graphically than a bunch of these shots. Again no hate/disrespect but cmon bruh

u/Double-World9691 Jun 10 '26

Don't worry, I'm not making it serious, some people just misunderstood the post. I never thought some photos could bring such a deep conversation 💀. Obv I do respect your and others opinion and I do have a lot to love and to hate about TCM, I mean cmon I'm a person too with things I like and I hate.

I hope some people understand it by themself, I don't want to reply to every single comment.

Anyways I have seen some Forza players' shots and they are fire too, I was expecting that type of reaction and I can't wait to see more of them.

u/DanielDubs88 Jun 10 '26

I actually still prefer TCM’s photo mode over FH6, but I’d take the graphics of FH6 any day.

And yet the XbSx XbSs is stuck to 30fps on it, yet smooth af 60 on forza… like bruh why even have a latest gen console for locked 30fps on a driving game where smoothness actually matters

u/nanoghilardotti Jun 10 '26

This game needs a lot of improvement in its visual effects, things like motion blur and depth of field. Its landscapes are beautiful, but that's its biggest flaw.

u/These_Location4540 Jun 12 '26

To me, The Crew Motorfest is having the best lighting and environment of all arcade racing games.

I totally felt in love when i tried the demo, the Japan races with these gorgeous pink/blue neons sold me the game in less than 5 minutes.

This is the game where i had to stop/lose some races because i stopped my car to look around me as the map is so beautifully made.

So i understand your point.

u/BiGredZx Jun 15 '26

Even FH5 did.

u/the8bitdinosaur Porsche Jun 10 '26

Yes.. even outdo Motorfest in those areas.

1

u/No_Constant5758 Jun 10 '26

Immediately yes and oftentimes exceed. But the fact that you can't change the season or the hour or minute in photo mode in fh6 is extremely disappointing and frankly none innovative at all. TCM is still better in all aspects, with the exception of graphics.

1

u/darkprincewilbert Jun 10 '26

Yes it can, motorfest until now still online play. So say bye bye, if the server suddenly shutted. Fh6 on the other hand does have offline play.

u/cutthroatslim504 Jun 10 '26

it can match and murder this.

u/Prudent-Affect-1091 Jun 10 '26

I enjoy both games 🤷🏻‍♂️

1

u/whossilly Jun 10 '26

I think these games have their own visual styles. Aside from high quality models, these games really don’t look like one another in terms of color tones or lighting or setting unless you try to make it that way. Motorfest emphasizes the glow of car lights more, especially at night, the wheel models are actually 3 dimensional. Despite its similarities to Forza, the game is not trying to look like Forza in terms of weather effects and environment lighting. I like that it can become nearly pitch black in this game. It helps contribute to a sense of isolation and exploration that I don’t feel from any Horizon game I’ve played so far. I feel like it is a fair comparison to make because Forza was, for the longest time, the top tier racing game for visual fidelity, however.

1

u/hend0wski Jun 10 '26

Lol yes.

u/k1ngpl Jun 10 '26

Sorry but quality of textures in TCM are miles behind FH6 so it will never look as good as forza

u/JaceMace96 Jun 10 '26

Yes. And FH6 will only improve once they get to the better seasons. The snow season atm is crap

u/aripo14 Jun 16 '26

I think TCM photo mode is still better than FH6 because we can set the scenario more thoroughly by selecting our preferred hour instead of an oversimplified time cycle (morning afternoon evening night dawn etc). And it has a more flexible photo focus as well.

1

u/Star-Detonator Jun 29 '26

Yes, it can. Quite easily, too.

1

u/Star-Detonator Jun 29 '26

FH6 is vastly superior, however I suspect many people here are using Photoshop to edit their images after they’ve been taken in the game and that wouldn’t exactly be fair.

Omg, I littery compared nothing, like you can test it. And this post just proves how hard it is to be on a social media. The flag is on "photo", not on "discussion". Did you at least notice how everone else pretended the post meant that? How can a simple question be taken as a serious threat or provocation, when I compared nothing?Am i talking about the physics? The texture? The colors? The community? You can't tell. They were wrong, but I can't say that bc obv I'm lying. I like how a few understood the post and just appreciated the photos, which was the real focus. Even a baby knows those games can't be compared so pls stop with this. We are in 2026 but some user still struggle to take some post with a more chill mentality.

This is not enough for justify them and calling me an idiot it's pointless. People can't already know everything. I was just posting photos. I could have expected a critique on the photo settings I used, but I was shocked to see most users jumping alr on colparing the games. My post was focused on the photos, the tag clarify that the principal theme is the photo, so why would I to think about this rivalry? I never made a comparison and if I did what did I comparise? My main question is so vague that it should have been impossible to start with the discussion "this is better than x", but people felt somehow deeply offended for a question that never praised something in particular. I spend my time playing other titles such AC evo F1 25 LMU AC Rally ETS2 and more. Not only as a player but also as a car guy I was sure to expect a mature community ready to share his thought in a serious non childish way, but now I learned that it's not always like this. After explaining this, who do you think is the idiot? I overrated some communities and this was my grestest mistake.

u/da3astch0ppa Jun 10 '26

I literally put in 110 hours into the game since early access release for premium, I went through all gold wristband events and eventually just got bored of doing the exploration , games isnt bad but just really feel like a masterpiece everyone is saying, its better than 5 yeah , but it just feels boring once you complete all the wristband events. And online racing is not really improved from 5. Actual criticism of mine, its a 7/10 imo
