@DraleZero @sorek_UK @BocaBola_ people identify anything made with ai as ‘ai slop’ i discount your point.

@atsu3nn @sorek_UK @BocaBola_ Acknowledging reality doesn't have to mean you agree or defend it. People played games and enjoyed them, then only looked back on it unfavourably when personally discovering AI. Must not be slop if didn't notice. That's just the way it is.

Admitting that having an AI generated contest as a way to "lower the barrier for entry" PROVES that AI generated "art" is low effort, requires no skill, and bullshit and you know it. Why even give that option to continue the contest?
Party Animals@party_animals
Hi everyone. We’d like to address the recent discussion around the AI video contest, and first of all, we’re sorry for upsetting players with this event. We’re also sorry that we didn’t communicate with everyone clearly enough before the event started. Our original goal was to lower the barrier to creation. In past contests, we saw players with great ideas and scripts who couldn’t fully bring them to life because they weren’t familiar with tools like editing, modeling, or animation software. We hoped AI could be a more accessible tool that lets more people take part. That said, we understand the concerns around AI content. We are not trying to dismiss handmade work or disrespect creators. To us, AI is just another tool. What we truly care about is the idea, the expression, and the final work. We’d like to leave the next step up to the community. Please vote on what we should do: 1. Cancel the AI video contest 2. Change it into a non-AI creation contest 3. Keep the AI category and add a separate handmade category If you have another suggestion outside of these three options, please feel free to share it as well. Thank you.

@sorek_UK @BocaBola_ there is a huge amount of people opposing ai, idk what you’re even talkin about
English
@atsu3nn @BocaBola_ Well you have right to your opinion but it's not really based on anything solid so I think there will be less and less people with this sort of thinking.
English
@sorek_UK @BocaBola_ i draw the line at ai that’s for sure, i don’t want to see ai slop presented as ‘art’. labelling something as art when it was generated by ai is atrocious.
English
@atsu3nn @BocaBola_ Dunno, I consider it an art.
AI used by brilliant mind to create something novel and creating feelings. It's only an art because of how we perceive it.
Unsure where and why would you draw the line anywhere.
English
@sorek_UK @BocaBola_ talking about art not graphics nor photography. you could refer to them as a ‘art form’ but i would not say that’s art in the same way a drawing would be or a painting per say.
English
@sorek_UK @BocaBola_ ai cannot be a tool in art.
programming can be used to create art in some cases, especially with games. but fundamentally it is technical, just like engineering.
English
@atsu3nn @BocaBola_ For me programming is an art. For you it might not be.
AI is just a tool.
English
@tomwarren well i hope it delivers on the festival vibes and actually has a good campaign. last good one was forza horizon 2.
English
Playground Games has been delivering hit after hit for more than 10 years now
English
@sorek_UK @BocaBola_ i’m sorry what? i don’t think i could imagine someone defending this shit so hard. programming is technical, art is creative.
if the mona lisa was created by ai it’s no where near as impressive, not even close. also realistic applies to programming anyways, its not as impressive
English
@BocaBola_ It's the outcome that matters.
No programmer will argue it's easier to use ai for coding but does it matter if you care about outcome?
If you can't tell or it's really good should we really care?
English
@Brparadox maybe actually test native res and always without frame gen.

Early Forza Horizon 6 performance tests are starting to appear online, and the RTX 50 series is already pushing ridiculous numbers.
With DLSS 4.5 and Multi Frame Generation enabled, reports show cards like the RTX 5080 and 5090 clearing 200+ FPS at 4K in some scenarios, while native ultra settings with full ray tracing still manage to punish even flagship hardware.
If these early benchmarks hold up, FH6 could end up being one of the most demanding and visually impressive racing games on PC so far.
English
@IxBeast @D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion no one makes a moral judgement for other people. morals are individualistic. and they know they’re taking a risk, that’s damn obvious they just do not care?
why do you even care if other people pirate anyways…? 😭😭
English
@atsu3nn @D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion i dont but the devs of the game can make the moral judgement for it. If those people took the risk of pirating it, they are also taking the risk of getting punished for breaking said terms of service and not to mention its ILLEGAL. The people banned went online when its offline.
English
I feel absolutely no sympathy for people getting hardware banned for torrenting the game, a whole lotta mental gymnastics going on trying to act like it’s Playgrounds fault if they torrent it
Regardless of how the build was made accessible, you torrenting a paid title that has taken years to make and playing it before it’s intended release date isn’t somehow somebody else’s fault, that’s a choice you’re making
All around you are opportunities to break the law, it’s up to you if you want to face the consequences, personally!
Personally I choose not to be broke 🤷♀️

We are aware of reports that a build of Forza Horizon 6 has been obtained prior to its release and can confirm this is not the result of a pre-load issue. We are taking strict enforcement action against any individuals found accessing this build including franchise-wide and hardware bans. We encourage fans to sit tight for the game’s release on May 19.

@IxBeast @D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion what are you even talking about? playground games made a ridiculous decision, i’m calling it out? and i don’t see why they can’t admit their own mistakes? as i have previously stated, you do not make moral judgements for others.
English
@atsu3nn @D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion They did it to themselves by risking going online. Had they just played offline no one would be getting banned for it. Keep moving the goalpost on this.
English
@D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion comparing physical to digital goods is crazy. they literally lose nothing from pirating it. it will not effect their bottom line. where’s stealing from a supermarket would cause them a loss. however shoplifting is a very different crime for a reason, their not the same.
English
@atsu3nn @wisplite @DarkIxion If you steal from a,store do you expect them to let you back in to buy other things???
Pirating is fine if you are willing to take the consequences.
Its not rocket science
English
@D4dependant @wisplite @DarkIxion you do not get to make moral judgements for others. also they’re just proving people that they have no control over a game they should own, actually crazy shit. stop defending corporate companies that couldn’t care any less about you
English
@atsu3nn @wisplite @DarkIxion No whats pathetic is the well they did so im doing it attitude
You are all scumbag thieves and no amount of mental gymnastics changes that.
If you steal and get perma banned thats on you for being greedy retard and you deserve it
English
@wisplite @DarkIxion i get that, but banning people over playground games own mistake they WONT admit is kinda pathetic.
English
I don't feel any remorse for Microslop or Playground Games here, but I also don't feel remorse for the people getting banned. One is a multi-billion-dollar company; the other are people who absolutely knew the risks of pirating a game before it launched, and still decided to take the chance. Both are bad.
English
@TheDaniel187 @DarkIxion correct, piracy is though! not that i care 😭 we sail the seven seas anyways!
English
@k_azovsky @DarkIxion i’m sorry using a companies products is completely unrelated to defending the heck out of them?
i defend where it’s deserved and criticise where necessary. i am criticising them for this because it’s ridiculous and they should just admit their own mistakes instead of hiding.
English
@atsu3nn @DarkIxion Damn, u use their products, even if for "free". U still are someone who makes them exist. The only winning play is for you to stop using billion dollar corp made games entirely. But well, u are a hypocrite.
English
@WeArePlayground considering hardware and franchise-wide bans is too far. i cannot believe you think it’s acceptable. that’s disgusting.

@wahab_twts @TechyAizen what are you even talking about… also the a18 chips has 8gb maximum.
