Cant wait for this
just to make sure, are you saying you notice a tree higher in length that forza 5 saw? i couldn't tell which tree by looking at the video
Both gifs are very poor quality, but I much prefer the lighting in the real footage on the right. With apologies to Basil Fawlty I'm half expecting to see herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the track in the FM5 footage.
ahhhh, its been a long time coming.
still cant believe i dont have the cheevo for racing on all the tracks!
Looks like you are missing one!

it's not the car, it's the phone being held by a shaky hand
(actually, i noticed bumper cam bounces a lot now, especially when braking hard. Me likes)

The FM5 footage is still of AWFUL quality in that video. It's impossible to tell anything at all from it.
Yeah, details are lost everywhere..
It's time Turn 10, time for that direct feed goodness..

Yes
depends what you are looking for.
for example, it was good enough for me to understand that at least regarding roadside detail,
t10's rendition of bathurst has the recent simbin bathurst DLC beaten.
here's that charlie brown tree in simbin's bathurst:
yeap, the one dead-center.
now, this rings very well for me, especially as it is a kind of confirmation of what that 6-time winner of bathurst stated the other day, that "all camber changes and all roadside markers I've used for years are there" 8)
also, then you have the four (freakin' t10!!!) screenshots of the track that they released, where also i can compare to simbin's version, and again what I see in forza in detail, ambient light and overall palette, seems to my eyes much better.
as forza fans, we all have to learn -as far as information about forza goes- to make something out of ..nothing!
and i still give zero marks to t10 for broadcasting over tv, footage that they havent shown to their core fans. z-e-r-o! ;]
hmm, to tell you the truth, it seems like he is slowly and steadily transforming to che...
YO BADNED, ANY-THING FOR US TODAY?
FFS!
dont complain, because up until yesterday, both mechberg and badned where in your turf.
you could have arranged for drinks, women, bribery, kidnap, extortion, whatever works.
now, if anybody forzagaf has bathurst on raceroom, i'd be happy to race your ghost until forza5 is released, and then we finally get footage of forza bathurst...

Is it right the tracks are free in raceroom and you pay for cars?
I'm bored and looking for something to play.

No! Only two tracks(RaceRoom Raceway and Lakeview Hillclimb) and 5 cars are free. The other current and upcoming cars/tracks are premium.

But we have 1080p screenshots for those.
Footage is good enough to understand how close the track is to reality and how weird is the lighting.
Looks great, but grass in particular (lots of grass btw) looks oddly solid yellow, and lighting on trees doesn't match general scene lighting.
Which can only mean one thing
ALTERNATE TIME OF DAY CONFIRMED but not really.
seriously, tracks that suffered from trees being lit by generic lighting in fm4 were the ones with alternate TOD (since foliage sprites didn't change between dusk and midday) and that would explain why the trees in Prague do look like they belong to the environment. So, maybe...most likely not though
Also, BADNED is actually the Stig.
so, goku giving us a laugh every page now?
hilarious
go ahead man. i want to read more of that stuff
time passes faster this way until we got some new infos.

Thanks, I won't bother with it then.
Looking deeply at any blurry washed-out 15fps videos will make you go blind faster than Popeye at a spinach-sponsored wankathon.
We don't need some uber-produced arty-farty film with an orchestral score, just hit 'record' on your capture card and play the friggin' game* for two bastard minutes.

Well, guys, i hate to be the one to tell you but have you checked your calendars lately ?
One of these days a man in a black suit will knock at your door and ask you to hand him the code.
I can just imagine Dan saying: "oh, sure...can you just hold on a second, while we type the last few lines of code..."
"...time's up, Mr. Greenawalt.."
"...how do you like our studios ? Mr. Ekberg here can show you around while we input the last few thousand lines of data we just received from Calspan..."
"...the code.."
"...or you can have some...oh, look ! we're all out of coffee !.."
"...now"
"...WAIT, we need to polish that charlie brown tree in Bathurst !.."

Will the wireframe geometry mode be DLC? I think it looks cool.
its still a "semi-game" to put it at best, basically you can hot-lap and race ghosts. and do some tuning.
but thats pretty much what I do with forza too for loooong periods of time.
anyway, I bought bathurst, monza, pagani zonda R and an old bmw for ~10euros, and let me tell you that running on them, sure beats the shit out of waiting for t10 to show us the long awaited footage of bathurst, and the still not-even-announced monza
p.s. about you guys wondering that there is still WIP... let me tell you something about this launch: the one who sleeps the least, wins.

i dont get it
good, it sucks
yes, me being Greek does not always help my english
what I mean is, all those teams behind all the day 1 games on the new consoles, they will be working until the very last minute they can.
the ones who manage to put the most work behind their game up until the bell rings, they will be the ones that will be most benefited.
about t10, we know since many months that they will be developing after the traditional phase where game goes to print, but i am willing to bet that there are more developing teams that are doing more or less the same.
so, the developer who sleeps less until launch day, wins 8)
hmm, no

I wonder if anyone from the Turn 10 team pull a Polyphony Digital and sleep at work?
I can imagine Dan Greenawalt using Calspan tested tyres as his bed.

Lol at this rate wireframe geometry is the standard mode you get on Nov. 22nd, with graphics coming later as DLC
kidding, i appreciate T10 working till the very last day
what car is it?
I dont know about that, but i do remember seeing a video where turn10 was going to ....PRAGUE,
but dan did not go because he had to be at calspan and spin tires or something..
anyway, my fingers are crossed that the two things i care for will be achieved: awesome physics and precisely recreated tracks. GET TO WORK T10 GODAMMIT!!
I've been wondering why they haven't been. Imagine how happy they would make everyone if they just released an official video of a few laps at Spa?
