    I don't know if I should get FH3 or not. The demo is good but data for some reason won't save. I hear the full game though crashes a lot and has bugs. It costs $50.00 (US dollars). So should I get it? If I get 10 yes votes I will.

    I had FH3 for some time. The biggest issue for me was running out of RAM (even though I have 8GB) so it was was closing on me without any warning & the constant issue with the damn Microsoft Teredo server connectiong thing that didn't let me go online almost at all due to blocking my connection... And that thing is a HUGE f'ing pain in the ass to fix

    I've had FH3 For 2 months now, and i play online a lot of the time. (Xbox user is workclock1 if wondering) and i rarely run into issues with the game. I have an I3 2120 @3.3GHz and a GTX 750 Ti SC, And 8GB of Ram, The most common issue i have is my VRAM, I always have low video memory, and it makes my game lag quite a lot if i'm next to like 15+ cars in online. But overall racing, i seem to handle 30 FPS With no problem at all. And yes, i do experience crashing quite often when i have more than 45 background processes on my PC. Because FH3 Is a very intensive on all of your PC Components, it requires everything, PSU, GPU, CPU, RAM, etc. It honestly depends on your PC Specs, if you could reply to me with them, i could give a decent prospective on how the game may run on your system. I have a decent gaming PC, And i play FH3 A lot and hours at end, with about 3-4 crashes (same with FM7)

    I though you would know your PC Specs..

    But ok, hit CTRL+LSHIFT+ESC At the same time then hit "Performance"

    It shows a lot of your specs (GPU, CPU, RAM, And Hard Drive storage)

    Or get CPU-Z

    GPU (Name, VRAM,), RAM, CPU (Name and the GHz, and i3 doesn't preform very well on FH3)

    GPU - Intel R HD Graphics (25-28%)
    RAM - it doesn't show (is it called something else?)
    CPU - 3.43 GHz (20-27%)

    I think it's called Memory, not RAM.

    Your GPU Is absolutely awful. And if your running 20% on GPU and CPU at idle, i'd get something checked out (with nothing open, if your getting 20% on idle with chrome open, your good)

    offopic: ate a piece of pizza to fast, help i'm out to die

    how well did the demo run for you? Graphic setting? (if you can remember)

    Oh, If you experienced no lag at all or crashes, that should say the same for the bought version (that was the case for me)

    They're synonymous.
    That doesn't show anything meaningful besides the fact that your GPU will not run the game steadily.

    The answer is definitely no, I got bored after a week of playing. You can buy it only if you have friends to play in online mode with.
    Maybe it is me, because after simulation games like LFS, Assetto Corsa and Beamng more casual arcades seem boring and not fun.
    Yeah, ffb steering wheel is not the best option for forza.

    He's dramatically correct. If you have no online, then it gets boring after a few hours.

    That's why i have 45 hours of online, and 5 hours of single player.

    if you have an HD Graphic It wont run the game, Its an integrated graphic in your CPU, soo no dont get it wast of money.

    Edit: also as the other guy sayd, after playing game like asseta corsa and beamng! game like forza are boring!

    i recommend you geting asseto corsa on steam instead, its online, and you can get refound if ever it dont run good or you dont like it, but to get refound, you can only get refound if you got lower then 2hour played on that game, also the time limit is 14 day.

    I already have AC lol. I want Forza because it's OPEN-WORLD, not focused on racing or a story.
    also when I said the GPU and things I had a game up

    11 yes's. I guess it's final. I'm just glad it's an open-world game. I hate games that are great but have a dumb story. Plus, FH3 also has a train. Not many games I have let you get hit by a train :)
