Dat eSRAM issues..
but what you ask cannot happen until game's finished. wip GRAPHICS can not be as good as final, so joe public might get more confused (but fuck joe public
)i think that all these games being day1 showcases of "an entire new generation", its inevitable that they will be showcased and tested and teared to pieces for the first months after their release.
if i was one such team, I would plan the bulk of my showcase right after i have finished the thing so that i could show the best, finished effort, and also it makes sense to show it when somebody will be able to -you know- buy what he sees if he likes it.
i think we will see much forza footage, many features, many little details etc, but the problem is that when they will be showing, some of us will already be playing.. oh well..
Looks like you are missing one!
son of a bitch!

Didn't think the Bathurst footage was bad, only seen it on my phone so far.
man that looks great, especially the way the track surfaces reacts to light.
Looked pretty bad to me (unless this is Wind Waker - The Racer). Washed-out, compressed, low-res, low framerate. It hardly shows FM5 in a good light. Turn 10 can't be happy with videos like this being out in the public domain.

i tried the same approach when T10 allowed that direct feed twitch of laguna seca with an apparent vertical resolution of 140p to go around..
I mean, you don't want to release media yourself, but do nothing to show that footage had obvious scaling issues ?
It didn't work.

So many wasted opportunities to tie reveals in with events.
Any news on Suzuka by the way, is it getting the laserscan treatment?
Is it even returning? I hope so.

Definitely.
But I guess, being a launch title on a new system, things just don't go the way you want them. I'm sure Turn 10 would've loved to show off certain content and features at appropriate times but probably couldn't.
It's obvious that the game just isn't up to the standards that they want so they bit the bullet and held off showing shit...
But, they can't hold off forever and if the last WIR and BADNED's comments are anything to go by, it seems that the wait is over...
The deluge is about to begin.....

so far we only have official confimation of laser scanned Spa, Bathurst, Silverstone.
Maybe Top Gear Test Track.
Unofficial: Yas Marina and Long Beach.
Saw pics of La Sarthe being laser scanned so that should be in aswell.
Nurburgring most likely at this point, i think. Hope.
afaik we only have that reddit dude to go by as to what the (nearly) full game will include,
but i think if suzuka or any other real track or important track was missing, he would have mentioned it like he mentioned that tsukuba and fujimi weren't there. (he also mentioned monza was not there in the build he played)
about suzuka being laser scanned though, my guess is that smartgeo didnt do it, so either t10 got the scans somehow (not very probable) or its just getting the nextgen treatment (more probable)
also that reddit dude, when he was asked "what's your most pleasant surprise?" he replied that "its the amount of content".
so there..!
edit: he also said to expect t10 to go public at the end of the month or something.. which makes sense.

Showroom tomorrow.
Hopefully cars on track again, forget the homespace, it's unflattering to say the least.
Edit: thanks guys, love browsing m.neogaf but fucking hate trying to reply to everyone on it.

don't remember reading that
p3tran just made that bit up..
orly?
I am copying the exact thing that was deleted, just for you folks that dont believe me!!!
so, next time you pay more attention to people breaking their nda's to let us know shit, and until that happens, both of you, you owe me cars worth 1 million each in forza 5 currency for not believing me. ;ppPpp
there are couple some more important bits. I saved it as text on my ipad plus some screengrabs.
for what its worth, guy seemed true to me, but can never be sure.
I could post it here, unless BADNED or HELIOS want to post something official (or even semi-official) instead
change the dang record

You could but its just speculation until T10 make it official.In other words whats the point.
I'm sick of unofficial leaks that make the game look bad or may lead to dissapointment.Aint you : )

i don't know.
he just said "eh, dunno, maybe the amount of content"
he didn't sound convincing enough
Plus he didn't sound like a serious Forza player; he didn't notice the IMPORTANT STUFF and wasn't even sure about the new tracks / didn't remember all of them.
But the fact his account was deleted probably means he was legit.
the point is to get something out of the t10 dudes that hang around here
anyway, when this thread existed on reddit, most people here interested in forza at least had a quick look at what it said. link was put in this topic etc.
and nope, I think that we managed to pull information out of thin air (monza video, smartgeometrics) that gave us a pretty good idea of many things, way before they where (many still are to be) announced.
so definitely not disappointment.
edit:
eso, not only that he was deleted, but also his comments about physics etc, where imo too spot-on to be a troll. also this is why I think he was "serious", plus he named all the mitsu-evo's and he said that he mainly took the cars he used at f4 to upgrade and test.
about content though, have in mind that he says that one that comes from forza HORIZON will be pleasantly surprised, not one coming from f4

Nah, online 16 is plenty. 16 well matched players will make for great racing.
well, about that, we'll have to see. 24 players online and over 110 new cars I think it said on amazon..
that recent marketing video from ms was a different indication, seeing a screen with 16 players.
16 is not bad to be frank, so no real disappointment here either.
as I said, i would expect that memory and connection is not a big problem (gbytes or ram and dedicated servers), so it will mainly come down to how much juice they can squeeze out of the box day 1 for determining the number of players they can render at full speed.
if you game online, just the idea that f5 will have dedis is enough i think to get you pumped..

24 player GAF races would be insane.
Many would not make it further than the first corner.

i'd say they're both pretty much set in stone at this point.

If the 110 new cars thing is true, then it would probably mean that from here on out, the Forza Showroom will be filled with only new cars as we have 6 weeks left to get through that number.
We have about 100 cars revealed so far. 20 cars announced a week is the trend at the moment. If it continues and if the Amazon info is correct, we are looking at around 200-250 cars on the disc..........is that enough..?
When that record is the gospel, what you say doesn't fucking matter. you can go play other game instead, thanks.

so, you talk about ..disappointment from leaks, while ..in reality... we already know (from leaks) that the things that you say you want most, are in the game
you so funny
for me to be happy on the car thing, I'd definitely like more cars than horizon.
but this is the thing, for cars, you just know they'll keep bringing out the new models and enhance the lineup of the older models.
now, i dont want to count the list they release per week to calculate the total number.
i think they might not even do that list at all if people in the forums where not yelling at them
tracks is the thing that I was thinking about, but the laser scanned new ones where great fucking news, and if we end up with the majority or real tracks from f4 along with the new, then i think we are good on tracks too.
anyway, we are very close to t10 opening the door and letting us in. cant be more than two weeks that they will start showing everything...
ford racing 3?
Major Nelson just made a blog post about Racing accessories for Xbox One. The video isn't up yet though.

The pedals are trash, still no sign of a clutch or shifter, there's really nowhere to go with this.

You can't possibly be surprised, right? Only a box that takes the encrypted Wifi direct signal and converts it to the language of the old wheels would make it work.
so, they brought this guy I've never seen before (Branden?) to break the -already known- bad news.
cheap trick

What the guy was explaining is exactly the same way current XID works.
Why are they are mentioning Kinect though, is it going to be mandatory with wheels?

That's what you get for poking fun at MUSTANGS. -__-
