  2. Well, it's a start anyway. It's still rather annoying that I can't backup my game files (Quantum Break is a ridiculous 67 GB download) or use a framerate counter. I get that Microsoft really wants to push UWP, but if they want the platform to succeed with gamers, they're going to have to loosen up the locks quite a bit more.

  3. Forced Fullscreen Vsync

    DXGI Flip Model (for developers)

    DXGI flip model (Windows)

    Article was released on May 10, 2016:

    "The developers of individual games and apps must now update their software to take advantage of the new options. Microsoft also noted that unlocked frame rates aren't currently working in laptops that have both integrated video and a discrete graphics chip."

    New file explorer in Fall Creators update, option to disable?

    You mean the UWP version (other apps also are thrown into that shell as well)...?



    I have not personally used the latest releases, but I would be very surprised if there is not a on/off for it and other apps and the UWP type interface for this release. It may not last forever, but given the

    UWP version of File Explorer was able to be ENABLED in "Creators Update"
    , it will likely have a similar "enable/disable" type situation in "Fall Creators Update".

  5. This is definitely a couple of significant steps in the right direction. Thanks for that, Microsoft. Thanks needs to also go to those Gears of War UE game devs. Man, they have been taking heat from PC gamers from the get go and still are, mainly due to UWP issues, issues trying to get PC multiplayer matches going, especially given there is no cross platform multiplayer capability in this game. With all the negative feedback on the GOW site, those devs don’t hide, they listen, always respond, keep coming out with patches and still might be the first DX12 title to properly support multi GPU’s. See today’s post below from the devs.

    Sad part is what’s being lost in all this is that GOW UE is a good game, and other than the UWP issues, runs well with Sweeney’s Unreal engine.

    I honestly hope Microsoft succeeds with their PC gaming platform and gives Steam, EA, etc some competition. I don’t see them doing that by simply acquiring exclusive PC titles. They need to go head to head and get rid of the restrictions currently caused by UWP. Ya, PC gaming 101, frame counter, hope they aren’t waiting for a FRAPS update which I don’t think has been updated since 2013. Steam has their own FPS overlay. Ea/Dice, in seconds thanks to a user config I can show FPS, other PC info and limit my frames to anything I want, important to a gamer with a monitor that runs at 60HZ, 100, 120 or 144 which I change depending on the graphic options I choose and related FPS I get.

    IMHO, Microsoft needs to at least match, not restrict what PC gamers have today and then they can talk about their additional treats they can provide with DX12, xbox integration and the fact that they know Windows 10 better than anyone. Competition is good and goes both ways. PC gamers can choose and so can the devs. We have Steam, EA and DICE and Microsoft Studios now with the UWP. I think many of us also saw from the Nvidia Pascal conference the new Doom (another PC gaming legend) running impressively on a Pascal 1080 and on the Vulcan API. Vulcan is DX12’s competition.

    We are pleased you are listening. Bring it on. Expectations are high but after all you are Microsoft.

  6. At the very least, I'm looking forward to trying out Forza Apex. I definitely do enjoy Forza on my X1.
