Yeah sounds like a disguised ad. Isn't that the first mention of Sebring BTW ?

What worries me the most at the moment is the lack of Japanese track hints/rumours. Motegi can be ditched if you ask me (replace it with Fuji or Okayama) but I don't want to loose Tsukuba nor Suzuka, especially Suzuka, this track is just so good.

Is there a spot to get the backfill of photos from this car release thing they're doing? I missed a few weeks due to vacation with the family and I'm missing a few.

Sounds more like a game ad hehe

so now i got to ask:

what the heck does turn10 want to know about a specific car for their simulation model, that the manufacturer is not able to provide, so they have to go to bosch to provide?

if there is a real answer there, I will be genuinely impressed.
for the tires, we all understood the calspan need. (yet we still need to "feel" the results on release)
but bosch? are we going to be tuning ecu's? or modding fuel pumps, injectors and the rest?

Sebring was confirmed months ago, with indianapolis.
I really doubt they lost Suzuka, and i think the tracks the reddit guy didn't see are day 1 dlc.


Also, once again T10/MS advertises FM5 with an article, no new details and no media.

I'm telling you guys, something went horribly wrong here :p

:p

(you were probably right on TGTT, I remember that)
(but on the other hand, a few days ago they released on their site the last F5 update, and the final sentence was: Coming out November 22, xbone Launch day. :pppp)

I like Motegi enough, I think Catalunya (sp) is very similar, not a very fun track to 'share' in a lobby with strangers, I would not be angry if that was gone.

Tsukuba is just a track that I do not like at all. It feels tedious and fatiguing.

Suzuka +1. My tuning track.

What are the rumours right now on non real tracks?

I know racing purists love to have real tracks but mount fuji and the like where some of the highlights for me of the past Forza...

I miss montserrat also :(


When they showed Prague video I thought they said also that there would be more city tracks is there any new info on that or any other quote on that?

Right now confirmed non real tracks are: Prague and Alps?

i believe so. i would imagine montserrat will be in. maple valley should be a shoe in. i think the reddit poster mentioned sunset peninsula as well. i'm hoping for (begging in fact) that positano returns and returns complete (fm3 version), but i wouldnt be shocked if it gets over looked :(

Camino Viejo needs to return in its full FM3 glory with the real mountain surrounding the area in real life instead of the Mordor-like stuff they put in FM4.

And without even noticing, we'll be 1 week closer to release.

Clever strategy, the game will be out before we know it, while we're still waiting for updates

Amen. I remember there was a render floating around a while ago with hot air balloons and cable cars at Montserrat. A volcano too, I think. Anyone see it?

Sometimes Turn 10 like to change shit just for the sake of changing shit.

Altering those mountains made zero sense.

They switched from multiple 3D mountains and 2D back drops to almost zero 3D mountains and 2D back drops so I think it probably made sense for performance reasons following the increase in number of cars on track.

Oh man. I remember being so hyped for Forza 3. It was the last big step up in the series.

I couldn't sleep the night before it released, so I sat up all night playing Mario Kart DS lol. Oh the nostalgia.

FM3 was certainly a massive graphical leap for the franchise. But I'd argue that it was FM4's tire model that was the most important upgrade of the franchise and the one that finally put it ahead of Polyphony Digital.

yep the physics in 3 were pretty poor tbh with the nerfed oversteer and all. 4 was great minus the casual bs plonked on top

worst nightmare would be "downgraded", actually.

even if they would release the build I played, it would be a huge upgrade from Forza 4, no doubt about that.

If they smooth out the aliasing issues then it will be one of the best looking Xbox One games for sure.

Car reveal day tomorrow, isn't it? Maybe they'll showcase the ultra-cool game-changing colossal feature of unbelievably unbridled awesomeness that Helios hinted at a few days ago?

Hope it's a karate mini-game like Geometry Wars was in PGR. Oh my God, I bet that's what it is! AWESOME! Cannot wait! First Dan - The Game. They better not stiff us and NOT include this now, especially after all the forum speculation about it. People will be PISSED.

All the talk about Titanfall and COD: Ghosts being 720p on Xbone makes you realise even more what clever coders Turn 10 are to get FM5 running 1080p at a flawless 60fps.

Best dev team on Xbone?

Yeah, I don't get it. If these guys can do it, why can't everybody else?
