Forza Motorsport 6 has "wet weather, 3D puddles and night races" + more

It's not that noticeable, I mean, it's the water droplets, but everything you see outside the car runs at 60 fps.

Ah, good to hear. In Project CARS cockpit view (on consoles) the arms and steering wheel move at 30fps even when everything else is moving at 60fps. It's bloody annoying. Luckily you can remove the arms and wheel (which is better anyway in cockpit view, IMO).

Technical pedantry ahoy: can Turn 10 claim rock-solid 60fps when mirrors and rain effects run at 30fps? Isn't that kind of... cheating?

Well, the core game runs at 60 fps. The same has been happening with resolutions for a while: Many games run at X native resolution, but some effects are rendered at a lower resolution (mainly smoke effects and so on), so I guess this is the same.
 
It's going to be a long work day.

Glad I got some MGSV in over the weekend so I can focus on play the demo for a little while.
 
Damn g3tting like only 5MB/s at most... great...
Psn is faster for me here.. why do i still have a 200/20 connection... neither console use it.
 
In case anyone is wondering, here are the F&F Forza 6 cars.

I thought that had been fixed?, or is the demo an old(er) build?

What car/s and track/s are included in the demo?

First race is Ford GT 2017 on Rio with all assists on.

Then 3 Race Qualifier (not the one Mascot wants ;))...

It looks like we might be playing what Reviewers did for the first 90 Mins.

Ok, that sounds pretty good, decent number of cars to use?, or only a few?

The first volume was focused on Super Street racing, and I had to pick among five cars to race atLimerock Park:

2014 Volkswagen Golf 4
2013 Toyota GT86
1997 Mazda RX-7
2009 Honda S2000 CR
1998 Subaru Impreza 22B STi

This is the first race.

Then Night Yas Marina it looks.

And if this is the same as the Preview part, Circuit of the Americas in day.
 
It's set to Instant On but my dad sometimes turns all my shit off at the socket, so I'm not 100% sure if it'll be in standby right now.

"Buy it" from Xbox marketplace on your web browser, and if the console is on, or on instant on, it will download automatically, if it isn't on, you'll have to get someone to turn it on, I had to text my wife to turn mine on!

Pffft.
We wold ahve to fault every game for any and everything that is rendered at a different res or update rate.
e.g Particles, cubemaps, physics, animations. etc etc.

So Game X would have to be described as running at 30 fps for alpha transparency effect sans distant proximity smoke stacks which are at 24fps, cube maps are all 2k, excpet for in the bathroom in level 6, the one with the green door where they are actually a full 4k. Physics are updated at 90Hz, giving easyly beatable physics but they work .Reflections run at a locked 30fps except when in the huge outdoor area at the test sight, where the rocket ships refelcts the environment at a slightly lower frame rate.
Ambient occclusion is rendered at 1080p while glossmaps are rendered at an amzing 4K on the hero.
 
I think they do, it's just very subtle, and hidden by spray.

I think. Not sure now.

Need to see it on my TV to tell for sure. Anybody?

Judging by the Sebring video it seems to be related to how wet the road is. But I definitely saw trails on part of the course, just not in the very deep water.
 
Is there any way I can download the demo from my laptop? I'm in the UK.

Sign into you Xbox account and say download to Xbox.
If your Xbox is set to instant on it will start downloading.
If its unplugged just ask someone at home to plug it in and turn it on.
Itll do the business.

Agreed, but not every game has "100% rock-solid locked at 60fps all the time, every time"-type claims as part of their marketing and promotion. Turn 10 drew our attention to this, not the other way around.
 
It looks pretty good. I just finished my first race in the Ford GT and the rest of the content is installing. I don't know if it was all the assists but it felt quite a bit grippier than Forza 5.

Watching a twitch stream at the moment, and they are saying the cars feel a bit lighter than FM5?
 
Just finished a few races.


It's forza....good I guess...


But they need to freshen it up a bit. Production values and presentation are second to none but racing feels sterile and almost mundane. I'm sure others will love it as its very good as a forza game...I just wanted something a bit more exciting.

Enjoy !
