Forza Horizon 4 lags on xCloud and has mapping issues via Remote Play

Hello everyone! I’ve had nothing but great experiences with xCloud and Remote Play so far, so I was confused when I stumbled upon these issues.

For context, I have a Series S and a 1gbps internet connection in my house, so, especically since I almost never have internet problems and that whatever I stream via cloud or RP works, this can’t be the reason for my problems.

1. For starters, unlike other games, FH4 has noticeable input lag when played via xCloud. I couldn’t find information on whether the Series X server upgrade has been finalised or not. Maybe the game has yet to acknowledge the upgrade? I don’t know how it works, I just know the upgrade was rolled out in steps and the games were improved in waves.

2. Via Remote Play however the game works impeccably with one very curious caveat which is the fact that switching through the radio channels and using Anna is mapped to the left stick as well. So while playing, the music constantly changes and I keep sending out quick chat prompts. It’s very distracting. I looked this issue up and apparently it’s been going on for a really long time now.

I don’t think there are any fixes on my end that I could try, since this is mostly an issue on the other side of things, but just wanted to check with others and see whether I’m alone in this or not.
