i dont know if you ever played the old forzas but Turn10 bragged about recording the exact sound of every car in the game (i think it was for Forza Motorsport 3 or 4). FH4 sounds like theres nothing to them and every car sounds the same. so effin disappointing being a car guy :(
FH4 was honestly not great. I dont understand why so many people like it so much, FH1 and 2 were the best in my opinion. FH3 was great too but not my favorite. And FH4 I was really disappointed in. I hated the random seasons, the houses I thought u could customize, the forzathon live was boring especially trying to get points to unlock a car, the map was the worst in the franchise in my opinion. Idk I think for FH4 being the first or second forza horizon game people played it was really good but Ive been around since the OG and I think a lot of people that played way back in FH1 would agree that FH4 is just not great and I would agree the car sounds are not impressive anymore. The game is average Im not gonna say I hate it because I do like it in some ways but just felt like a bootleg version of FH3 to me.
@@thesuperiorgolem5357 FH5 will be a great improvement, and I agree with you, I FRICKING HATE the unrealistic way a sheering wheel works in fh4, it honestly is so all over the place and just quite odd and weird to control.
Forgot environmental features, which look DRASTICALLY better in FH3. Environmental features in FH4, including plastic 2D graphics and flickering, constantly self-rendering trees honestly look like they're taken out straight from a 2005 game smh.
Don't every forget horizon three has had a bunch of patches and optimaztions done to it to make it look better on PC. I'd imagine a year from now it'll be no contest when 4 gets a similar amount of love.

I think every time you notice something worse in 4 than 3, like the grass textures, it was a conscious decision that was made by the developers to improve the game. Not only in its look but in how it plays. As you said, the game trying to render high-definition individual grass blades as you rip over them at 200 miles an hour is a horrible use of resources. The grass is just a blur for your eyes anyway. The road however, is something you will look at closely a million times as you start up or after crashing etc AND it doesnt move or sway so go ahead, HD the hell out of it! Minimal resources used for a big gain. All of those decisions are bang for buck decisions. The bottom line for me having played neither game before and just now ordering 4 is that the side by side isn't even close. To me Forza Horizon 4 is much more realistic and natural-looking. High definition cartoon is still just a high-definition cartoon.
Blah blah blah If Forza wanted to cut tiny corners to make other things better they should've have wasted months and months of developing on dances and clothes.
@@josiahamen8673 that's why you stick to the Motorsport series. That's way more focused on realism. Horizon is more of a NFS spin off than a Forza one.
I feel like we’ve reached a point where our current hardware does not allow game devs to drastically make a big upgrade to graphics and realisms. Or the devs are just lazy which wouldn’t surprise me.
You really couldn’t be more wrong in your first assumption, just look as some of the better RTX gameplay trailers. Graphics are a long way from being unimprovable.
Yeah but the big thing that were improved between those 2 games is gameplay and I rather have better gameplay than graphics especially when the graphics are already great, fh 4 run smoother on PC than fh3 with a map that can have 4 different states and have better off-road mechanics but sure they didn't made better water so they are just a bunch of wankers
I believe the shadows were dumbed down for a reason, given how there is a lot more foliage in FH4 than FH3, not to mention the fact that they had to make 4 versions of each type of foliage to represent the seasons properly. If they make the shadows generic, they can focus more on texture and model quality of the foliage for the best possible appearance, instead of making 2 or 3 high quality shadow maps to go along with it. Game would be massive if that was the case (although it is a rather large download already)
The shadows weren't "dumbed down". Almost all shadows in the game are actually dynamic, meaning they don't use lightmaps. It's more demanding at higher resolutions, but it's a lot more flexible. There are no static shadows being cast by any hero models (like cars) and architecture, meaning everything's rendered at runtime and global shadow resolution depends on whatever you set it. Smaller foliage usually doesn't have shadows to begin with (with the exception of trees and large bushes). Smaller foliage like tufts of grass and small bushes rely more on Ambient Occlusion in dynamic environments, and most foliage LODs don't use baked shadows at all, which is why trees can appear bleak in the distance. The amount of vertices from models like trees that have to be rendered are a non issue since foliage relies heavily on LODs, meaning it really doesn't matter unless you go to extremes (which depend on the kind of game or real time environment you're working on). Game design isn't really a case of "Oh, shadows need to be better, so we'll thin out the tree geometry", it doesn't work that way. If it did, things would've been much simpler! Oops, wall of text.
I own and play both, for me H4 really looks better graphically especially over time (much more realistic) . Cars especially AMG’s do sound better in H3!, for me personally driving and racing is slightly more fun in H3. Overall i like H3 better but visually H4 got it easily beat.

Horizon 4 just came out, horizon 3 has been out and turn 10 has had time to update the game fixing minor issues, while unfortunately they’re going to need time to update 4
He didn’t know about it but yes it was the leaves. Although, the leaves shouldn’t have been like that as it was very much like a stuttering effect. In FH3, the leaf movements were much smoother giving it a much more realistic look
I say it depends on the lighting. When Horizon 3 is in day time, it looks much more realistic than Horizon 4. I also think that in Horizon 4, when lighting is dim, it looks a bit less realistic than Horizon 3.
Yeah I figured as much. Surprised they don't really allow for any deep customization though. I like how Project Cars lets you set a blizzard in Florida if you want. At least for private or blueprint matches.
Thanks for the comparison. As ever a really high quality. I wish the topics vegetation and lighting were a bit more detailed even if its hard because of the different regions.
Horizon 4 looks more so how you're eyes would perceive it, whereas Horizon 3 looks like its being seen through a camera lens with some filtering added to it.
3:13, I think the textures on the right are intentionally softer because it's supposed to be wet grass, it makes sense for the dry grass to be more visually distinct and sharper due to the sun
4:59 the water surface effect is called Screen-space reflection, a video setting for which was added in Horizon 4 (on PC). And it does look much better now.
I've tried playing Horizon 4 and there's this feel that's missing from Horizon 3. Maybe it's the setting but personally I like Australia way more than the UK.
75 inch 4K UHD Samsung TV and an Xbox 1X solves that problem. The graphics for 3 and 4 are different in some ways buts it’s the handling of the cars that actually draws the attention of fans
A big TV does absolutely nothing to "solve" any perceived problems (which there honestly aren't any). This is the PC version of both titles, running on hardware far more powerful than the XboxOne X. Also.. don't bother throwing around "UHD" as if it means anything special. It's 4k.. simple as that. UHD is just the dumb term invented for marketing purposes to help push people into buying 4K televisions
For the corvette comparison, the fh3 corvette had FE (Forza Edition) tires and a different style of rims than the fh4 version. This made the tires have writing on them and look more shiny. The dirt/mud effects are also stronger in fh4 due to the fact that it is based in Britain where the weather is more humid. Just wanted to point this out.
They also toned down the bloom starting with Forza 7. Anyway I wouldn't say Horizon 3 holds up well, given how poorly it runs especially compared to Horizon 4. Good graphics don't mean shit if the game isn't playable. Also, Horizon 4 might have lower res grass textures but it has a lot more grass foliage, not to mention the mud tessellation and whatnot.
More broken maybe. The crashes nearly tripled, the graphics settings don't save anymore for a lot of people and it nuked saves several times. What's most alarming is that the last two occurred when Forzathon was update, not from an actual content update that requires download. That's actually what's keeping me from buying Horizon 4. They have some major issues if they can fuck up your game this badly just by hitting the wrong switch.
your PC must not be very good, I can play it at 4k ultra settings and never dip below 60 fps. It seems to be optimized well for the visuals you receive with it. I suggest either turning down your settings or upgrading your PC.
Did it ever cross your mind that maybe you have a PC that's so good optimization ceases to be relevant? Just because you can brute force the game to run well doesn't mean it's well optimized. These fuckin' guys man.
In my case, after all the optimization patches, the FPS on FH 3 more than doubled, from an average of ~45 on the lowest settings or completely maxed out with 8xmsaa to 100-115 depending on the region (closer to 100 in the city). FH4 however already runs at around 68-70 (maxed out with just 4xmsaa tho) which I don't mind, because even if it's not apparent in this video, the shadows got a massive upgrade due to actually having projected shadows now, especially during the night (FH3 had no shadows during night time, just a veil of darkness).
Runs well on mine as well, most of the time it runs smooth as butter though I still suffer from the problems every now and then that I listed. 4790k, 16gb ram, GTX 1080. Edit: The game has been updated a few times since this post & I no longer suffer from any of the problems I stated, it is truly a smooth experience now.
Nice, professional video. Wouldn't have guessed that you have 'only' 30k subs. :) I'm more for FH4 btw, especially as its runs better/smoother I've heard and still looks great, even better, more realistic.
FH4 runs way better on my GTX 1080 than FH3. FH4 never drops below 80FPS on ultra for me while FH3 and FM7 would drop below 30 for a couple brief seconds atleast once a race which is way more important than graphics IMO.
For me it boils down to the beauty of the location. And Australia wins because I love that landscape, reminds me of Oahu Hawaii island of Test Drive Unlimited 1 & 2, the inspiration for Forza horizon.
A few other special effects I noticed in FH4 vs FH3 is more subtle animations on the car parts. Antennae, mud flaps, wing mirrors, rear wings, and wipers all flutter a little bit in the wind when driving. The driver character also moves a little more naturally in FH4. The driver reacts to impacts from landings or collisions and their upper body even moves a tad at low speeds when driving over uneven terrain. Also during skill songs, the driver now dances a bit in the seat.
@Qaotik yeah but the graphics are already good, the physics are already good so you cant really improve on that alot. but the optimization? from 50 fps with stuttering and crashes to 100fps with 0 stutters? thats more important to me than making the game look nicer when its already looking great
@@N4orEditor The impact on tuning has improved quite a bit over horizon 3. Now in 4 it feels like it does what it's supposed to rather than trying to break the game with completely bonkers settings which doesn't even make sense in horizon 3. I still don't get why the cars has to understeer so much by default.
Being a console gamer by preference Forza horizon 4 looks amazing and was one of my first real dips into the dynamic lighting with headlights and vegetation or poles and posts, I tend to use photo mode a lot in my honest opinion it's one of the biggest and best changes to the game the effects add to the photos. My preference is 4 mainly for the setting the photo mode and really nice dynamic lighting but I have shown people pictures from 3 that where mistaken as real pictures, so both games are gorgeous.
in my opinion. 3 had way better engine sounds compared to 4. 4 was so much recycled nonsense. yeah they killed it graphically but the actual realism of cars was so shot
Hello. I planing to buy Forza Horizon 4, worth it ? Forza horizon i played on Xbox One S. Now wanted to play something new, talking about new map, vw cars and realistic. So, worth to buy FH4 ??
Take a hint .. fh4 works more smoothly and optimised than fh3 ! They downgraded some graphics functions to make the game more optimised and run smoothly even on low end cards ..
Horizon 3 is the better game. I have both and love the Australian map better than the British one. Would be nice if the next one could be Miami or Nevada.
Horizon 3 looks 'nice' because its more colorful. But that isnt more realistic. As said 100 times by now probably Horizon 3 Has a real nice game look. Horizon 4 nailed the realistic look. I play h4 not even on highest graphics and it still looks amazingly realistic i cant even believe my gpu is running it.
I think 4 is using a newer versions of ambient occlusion for shadows and shading in indirect lighting areas. Thats why some areas "pop" more and seem less dim in 3.
Electric Zap9 Nah, I have all but horizon 1. I am definitely going to get fh1 to finish the collection. Luckily, fh1 is one of the backwards compatible games.
I need to point out that after 2 years H3 has been released, there has been many updates to this game. Some has to do with better graphics. After the One X was released, they did the last update to enhance the graphics by adding 4k HDR, and boy! The game looks beautiful! And as for H4, I know that the game is still under development. They will improve H4.
some small notes: -the more muted Colors and less intense light bloom are becuase of tonemapping, which i think improved a lot in fh4. the Highlights no longer blow out, but of Course this means losing contrast. it gives this more filmic, realistic lighting so i like it a lot -the Vegetation and trees actually did improve a lot. lighting of leaves is much more natural and the lower lod Levels look and blend better, which makes them look better at a distance -Damage now has the paint beeing scratch off, so thats a small improvement

Couldnt be more incorrect. Even people with sim wheels cannot play fh4. Overall sound is worse and the driving is more arcade rather than sim.

I feel like it's the lighting and tge fine details like dirt and especially snow that makes forza horizon 4 look better
I almost died when he called the alloy wheels on that lambo "Wheel covers"
and? hes not a car freak lol
@@Miichi5 you are damn right
In Horizon 4, if you sit still in your car while it is snowing, it accumulates a good amount of noticeable snow on top.

Forza Horizon 4 + Ray Tracing = Nuts
Is forza horizon 4 able to use raytracing?
@@gerson4729 No. I meant if It could
crazy cause fh4 is much much much more optimized than fh3
I mean horizon 4 looks identical to real life so I don’t understand how ray tracing would make a difference.
@@silentndles7365 I assure you there's still a little bit of improvement needed on FH4. Ray Tracing would make a difference

Play House games
ha yup.

No entiendo
sebazk someone should make a rip-off of Horizon and the developer group should be named Playhouse games if it’s not already taken.
4:20 Isn't that just leafs waving in wind?
He didn’t know about it but yes it was the leaves. Although, the leaves shouldn’t have been like that as it was very much like a stuttering effect. In FH3, the leaf movements were much smoother giving it a much more realistic look
Nice
@@saidapotato4413 Yes
Well yeah but it was glitching out
3 looks cartoon and 4 is more realistic.
@Digby Dooright comparison to each other
It does not looks like a cartoon, you can say 4 is better than 3 in graphics
@@CarRevvedGaming it looks way better than h3 on Xbox one X tho
Don't know exactly...but it (4) is pretty nice.
I say it depends on the lighting. When Horizon 3 is in day time, it looks much more realistic than Horizon 4. I also think that in Horizon 4, when lighting is dim, it looks a bit less realistic than Horizon 3.
Great video man always keeping the high quality content!! Your channel is underrated, you should and probably deserve way more views than you get.
I think the reason you can’t get equal blizzard effects is purely contextual and we never get blizzards like you see in fh3 in the uk.
Yeah I figured as much. Surprised they don't really allow for any deep customization though. I like how Project Cars lets you set a blizzard in Florida if you want. At least for private or blueprint matches.
Thanks for the comparison. As ever a really high quality. I wish the topics vegetation and lighting were a bit more detailed even if its hard because of the different regions.
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the feedback and will make sure my next video will go more in depth with both vegetation and lighting :)
Horizon 4 looks more so how you're eyes would perceive it, whereas Horizon 3 looks like its being seen through a camera lens with some filtering added to it.
Dude, your eyes are lenses.
3:13, I think the textures on the right are intentionally softer because it's supposed to be wet grass, it makes sense for the dry grass to be more visually distinct and sharper due to the sun
Subbed. I love those direct comparisons, always very interesting!!
Sir can u make a video of direct comparison between assassin's creed origins and odyssey?.. Thank u.. :)
Sure sir...
4:59 the water surface effect is called Screen-space reflection, a video setting for which was added in Horizon 4 (on PC). And it does look much better now.

THANK YOU FOR THE GOLD KIND STRANGER

I've tried playing Horizon 4 and there's this feel that's missing from Horizon 3. Maybe it's the setting but personally I like Australia way more than the UK.
Horizon 3 looks better but 4 is more realistic
TheGoldenL 4 looks slightly better than 3 you mean but it’s just a tiny difference in terms of graphics
@@russiannoodleman3402 True.
Just listen to the sound of the Koenigsegg One:1 from both games.
Fh3 has a much better sound.
Because 3 doesnt have cloth to distract the developers
@@derpderogation735 nope, FH3 looks better than 4 overall, no point denying it.
What?
I am watching your channel more than I am comfortable admitting! Excellent content bud.
5:54 it seems to me that damage effects are now more visible
75 inch 4K UHD Samsung TV and an Xbox 1X solves that problem. The graphics for 3 and 4 are different in some ways buts it’s the handling of the cars that actually draws the attention of fans
A big TV does absolutely nothing to "solve" any perceived problems (which there honestly aren't any).
This is the PC version of both titles, running on hardware far more powerful than the XboxOne X. Also.. don't bother throwing around "UHD" as if it means anything special. It's 4k.. simple as that. UHD is just the dumb term invented for marketing purposes to help push people into buying 4K televisions
Lol 4K UHD and and Xbox 1 and who are you comments aren’t needed lol this guy
For the corvette comparison, the fh3 corvette had FE (Forza Edition) tires and a different style of rims than the fh4 version. This made the tires have writing on them and look more shiny. The dirt/mud effects are also stronger in fh4 due to the fact that it is based in Britain where the weather is more humid. Just wanted to point this out.
They also toned down the bloom starting with Forza 7.
Anyway I wouldn't say Horizon 3 holds up well, given how poorly it runs especially compared to Horizon 4. Good graphics don't mean shit if the game isn't playable.
Also, Horizon 4 might have lower res grass textures but it has a lot more grass foliage, not to mention the mud tessellation and whatnot.
Is the performance still shit in horizon 3? Ive heard that it got a lot better after a few patches. But maybe not?
More broken maybe. The crashes nearly tripled, the graphics settings don't save anymore for a lot of people and it nuked saves several times. What's most alarming is that the last two occurred when Forzathon was update, not from an actual content update that requires download.
That's actually what's keeping me from buying Horizon 4. They have some major issues if they can fuck up your game this badly just by hitting the wrong switch.
your PC must not be very good, I can play it at 4k ultra settings and never dip below 60 fps. It seems to be optimized well for the visuals you receive with it. I suggest either turning down your settings or upgrading your PC.
Did it ever cross your mind that maybe you have a PC that's so good optimization ceases to be relevant? Just because you can brute force the game to run well doesn't mean it's well optimized.
These fuckin' guys man.
In my case, after all the optimization patches, the FPS on FH 3 more than doubled, from an average of ~45 on the lowest settings or completely maxed out with 8xmsaa to 100-115 depending on the region (closer to 100 in the city). FH4 however already runs at around 68-70 (maxed out with just 4xmsaa tho) which I don't mind, because even if it's not apparent in this video, the shadows got a massive upgrade due to actually having projected shadows now, especially during the night (FH3 had no shadows during night time, just a veil of darkness).
FH4 is better because it's a good port..
Not quite, it still suffers from: crashes, memory leaks, random stutters(rarely though.)
Sad to hear, I've only played the demo but it seemed to run really well on my system
Runs well on mine as well, most of the time it runs smooth as butter though I still suffer from the problems every now and then that I listed. 4790k, 16gb ram, GTX 1080.
Edit: The game has been updated a few times since this post & I no longer suffer from any of the problems I stated, it is truly a smooth experience now.
To me FH4 runs at stable 60 FPS, FH3 instead around 50-60 FPS.
theres no stuttering problems in fh4 unlike fh3 and is very consistent
We should capture the reactions of a gamer who was in a coma for the last 10 years and sees this video.
better say someone who been in prison
Nice, professional video. Wouldn't have guessed that you have 'only' 30k subs. :)
I'm more for FH4 btw, especially as its runs better/smoother I've heard and still looks great, even better, more realistic.
what happens if u havent gone outside for a year and start judgin the nature in games lmao
* in quarantine *
This hasn't aged well
@@allhaillordtachanka1957 agreed
:(
FH4 runs way better on my GTX 1080 than FH3. FH4 never drops below 80FPS on ultra for me while FH3 and FM7 would drop below 30 for a couple brief seconds atleast once a race which is way more important than graphics IMO.
Okay?
What does IMO mean?
@@jb-kp8go In my opinion
I have a gtx1080 and it has never dipped that's ya cpu or ram not keeping up my dude
or you have to much shit running in the background
For me it boils down to the beauty of the location. And Australia wins because I love that landscape, reminds me of Oahu Hawaii island of Test Drive Unlimited 1 & 2, the inspiration for Forza horizon.
2:20 forza horion 4 looks like it has a matte paint job
A few other special effects I noticed in FH4 vs FH3 is more subtle animations on the car parts. Antennae, mud flaps, wing mirrors, rear wings, and wipers all flutter a little bit in the wind when driving. The driver character also moves a little more naturally in FH4. The driver reacts to impacts from landings or collisions and their upper body even moves a tad at low speeds when driving over uneven terrain. Also during skill songs, the driver now dances a bit in the seat.
i find the lack of pedestrians in open world racing games a quite disturbing
i rather them focusing on optimization rather then improving the graphics
Exactly!
@Qaotik yeah but the graphics are already good, the physics are already good so you cant really improve on that alot. but the optimization? from 50 fps with stuttering and crashes to 100fps with 0 stutters? thats more important to me than making the game look nicer when its already looking great
@@N4orEditor The impact on tuning has improved quite a bit over horizon 3. Now in 4 it feels like it does what it's supposed to rather than trying to break the game with completely bonkers settings which doesn't even make sense in horizon 3. I still don't get why the cars has to understeer so much by default.
When I first went to the beach on Forza Horizon 4 I was in awe because of how realistic it looked (I am from the UK myself)
Horizon 4 wins because the lighting and coloration looks much better and less cartoony
Great video dude! Helped alot
the light textures appeared blurred probably because you had lens effect enabled. (its in hud options)
Being a console gamer by preference Forza horizon 4 looks amazing and was one of my first real dips into the dynamic lighting with headlights and vegetation or poles and posts, I tend to use photo mode a lot in my honest opinion it's one of the biggest and best changes to the game the effects add to the photos. My preference is 4 mainly for the setting the photo mode and really nice dynamic lighting but I have shown people pictures from 3 that where mistaken as real pictures, so both games are gorgeous.
4:27 shadows from tall trees would never be as crisp as in horizon 3 in real life
When I played forza 3, I thought all the engines sounded pretty similar
@Cameron XP yes
in my opinion. 3 had way better engine sounds compared to 4. 4 was so much recycled nonsense. yeah they killed it graphically but the actual realism of cars was so shot
Of course horizon 3 and forza 6 have the best cars exhausts
Forza motorsport 4 has the best car sounds
Hello. I planing to buy Forza Horizon 4, worth it ?
Forza horizon i played on Xbox One S. Now wanted to play something new, talking about new map, vw cars and realistic. So, worth to buy FH4 ??
I bought it a few days ago, I really recommend it. 👌
If you have the gamepass, test it out first, it is a really expensive game and not liked by a lot of people.
correct me if im wrong. but you haven't mentioned the overwhelming increase in performance from fh3 to fh4.
basically double the fps in fh4 and less stuttering.
Both games are great
Forza should’ve added a nice idle sound to all cars. And engine sounds when you pass by another car
I play both games extensively. But I prefer Horizon 3 over 4 personally.
I like 3s map more than 4
4 has better physics
I agree
4 does look a bit better but I find it boring for some reason maybe it's the location, the map is just dull to me in 4, Australia was better imo.
@@jeffprince599 I completely agree.
Are these both PC versions at maxed settings?
0:20
ah ok I sorta skipped the beginning lol
seems weird that Horizon 3 beats Horizon 4 in some areas its like night and day difference almost
Take a hint .. fh4 works more smoothly and optimised than fh3 ! They downgraded some graphics functions to make the game more optimised and run smoothly even on low end cards ..
Not for me, and honestly I doubt that it's true in general.
AsphaltEater64 well it is...
Always love your vids man. Do you plan on comparing AC Origins with AC Odyssey?
Yeessir. I'll try and have a video out on Friday :)
*Thanks!!!*
6:08 the FH3 feels like Test drive unlimited 1, where as FH4 feels real world..
In forza horizon 4 even the fences have shadows (xbox one x enhanced)
Horizon 3 is the better game. I have both and love the Australian map better than the British one. Would be nice if the next one could be Miami or Nevada.
I do really care about visual stuff, as long as its nice and doesn’t effect FPS too much. I mostly focus on the actual gaming experience
Thank God you made this video. Because its too confusing to compare whats the difference
Horizon 3 looks 'nice' because its more colorful. But that isnt more realistic.
As said 100 times by now probably
Horizon 3 Has a real nice game look.
Horizon 4 nailed the realistic look.
I play h4 not even on highest graphics and it still looks amazingly realistic i cant even believe my gpu is running it.
I noticed that the rear lights reflects on the rain drops on the screen on FH4. 8:13 Nice touch.
I still find FH3 better overall. Also, Australia
They do as well on FH3. And yes, Australia
I think 4 is using a newer versions of ambient occlusion for shadows and shading in indirect lighting areas. Thats why some areas "pop" more and seem less dim in 3.
nice comparition video keep it up
6:35 that sounded so perfect
4:51 horizon 3 has great dirt accumulation. You just didn’t drive around enough
FH3: we want snow in Australia
Australia: we don't have snow on Australia you wombat
Nice fair comparison +1
Also with the environment, I think Playground really nailed the countries they're set in
I just watched this video and subscribed to you.This was an amazing video and you have quality content.Keep up the good work.👍
Lower quality of ground textures etc in FH4 might be caused the fact it requires 4 times more textures for 4 Seasons.
But the game only needs to display one of those textures at a time
I never played fh3 until a few days ago... Going from fh4 to fh3 I prefer fh3 way more just in terms of the map and gameplay
I think Horizon 3 is a bit better too
2:02 Now in FH3 you don't have the Horizon tire....
It doesn’t matter if you compare a sequel to a prequel graphically, most people will just play the latest game in the series instead
Electric Zap9 Nah, I have all but horizon 1. I am definitely going to get fh1 to finish the collection. Luckily, fh1 is one of the backwards compatible games.
I need to point out that after 2 years H3 has been released, there has been many updates to this game. Some has to do with better graphics. After the One X was released, they did the last update to enhance the graphics by adding 4k HDR, and boy! The game looks beautiful!
And as for H4, I know that the game is still under development. They will improve H4.
Come on...this is like comparing a masterpiece with a.............masterpiece.
3:42 „Playhouse Games“ 😂
Lmao
the c7 (zo6) sounds better in FH3, the hurican sounds better in FH3, and the quad sound better in FH4, in my personal opinion.
As someone who owns both FH3 and FH4 there's absolutely no question that FH4 looks better
some small notes:
-the more muted Colors and less intense light bloom are becuase of tonemapping, which i think improved a lot in fh4. the Highlights no longer blow out, but of Course this means losing contrast. it gives this more filmic, realistic lighting so i like it a lot
-the Vegetation and trees actually did improve a lot. lighting of leaves is much more natural and the lower lod Levels look and blend better, which makes them look better at a distance
-Damage now has the paint beeing scratch off, so thats a small improvement
I’m sad nobody in the comments like 3 that much
ah same here, atleast for me 3 is better
3 is the best one in my opinion
I love horizon 3 i even play it more than 4, Australia its so much prettier 😍
@@micaelmunoz5417 yes mate
I think I like fh3 slightly more, but it really depends on what we are talking about.

Olav not true at all horizon 4 is one of the most unstable games I’ve played, horizon 3 runs a lot better
The Only Guvs it has better optimization than FH3 on PC
Don't think so
Yup. The game is optimized Frame Rate unlike the FH3
Only comparison video we all watch full. Thanks to the admin for such a nice job!!
Horizon 4 is my first Forza (and my first Xbox) and I'm absolutely in love. Gran Turismo isn't even near that level.
