Yes, I didn't dare mention that.
Why do they feel the need to mislead with stretched definitions? The game looks great by itself. It doesn't need bullshit claims that nobody believes.

And it's mostly old footage.
And the couple seconds of new stuff are probably still from the same raw captured footage anyway.
I mean.
You start marketing a game and produce a video by throwing RANDOM pieces of OLD footage together ? They don't even fit, they don't even match, it's just random clips put together.
There's no concept, no nothing.
They just got some guy and told him, "look, we just realised we need a commercial for this game. Here, this is the stuff we've got, go and do something with it.
No, we're not capturing new footage for the commercial.
We don't have the time for it (actually, point is the game looks worse than it used to, so use the old video lol!)"
Man, if it wasn't for the 2 seconds of never before seen closeups of the P1 i'd think it was put together by some random youtuber.
I can't believe they couldn't be arsed and used footage from the reveal and E3 trailer.
I hope it's a placeholder commercial waiting for the new trailer being shown this week.
(yes, i made that up)

oh great! now the newborn insider is going philosophical on our ass... 
thats some great Socratic irony you're sporting there Sal
let me paraphrase a little more Socrates for you: "Being insider and not telling your brethren is but a tyranny, and one that lasts not for long or ends in sweet"

I think its awesome for a tvspot.
The problem is that we are aware of every bit of footage and already know the layout of the track. Thats why it doesn't make any sense in the way it's edited.
I like it.

Wow dude. That's a...really negative reaction to what seems like a neat trailer. I liked it, and it has new footage that matches pieces of old footage. It looks good, and they're able to confirm it as real-time.
At this point, I think we all know what really means, or can take a look at the footage and realize what's a cutscene and what's actual gameplay.
For people who cant, these sorts of misleading trailers have been around for several generations. And if you are one of these people, you aren't going to notice all the tiny little nitpicks that you see brought up on here anyways.
Its pretty harmless. We know that Prague is their showcase track, so of course they're going to use it in a commercial, too.
Bonus comment: Gotta love a certain regular basher in here trying to imply some sort of downgrade, though(and no, I don't mean you Xanadu!, you've been quite reasonable lately).
hehe thats Aristotle's tips on how to build good drama/poetry, right?
here's Aristotle's tip about a Man's way of life:
<<BRAVERY IS BETTER THAN PRUDENCE>>
so, do you have anything more to add my friend?
well.. yeah... you know, at least in t10's computers, the game still looks that good or even better. so, when then inevitable pc port comes, everybody gets to play the best version than this downgraded pos. right?

One of these statements is truth, the other is not.
Seriously, even the latest Spa footage, as great as that looked, looks NOTHING close to what we see in this "actual in-game footage".
My assumption is replay mode, which is consistent with what they've shown off for previous games in these style promotions. Are you saying we have reason to think it's pre-rendered? It looks like very carefully chosen moments that look the best.
could be like driveclub or pgr promo videos..
in-game footage yes, edited in professional montage equipment also yes.
Since we can see shader shimmering and the limitations of the reflection detail in the extreme up-close shot, that's why I'm willing to entertain these being (selectively chosen) clips from in-game replay footage. The smoke is definitely "Forza" smoke, just zoomed close enough to diminish the way it only exists as puffs. Does that assessment seem off-base to anyone?
Wednesday at the latest for the new set of Autovista shots and new cars. Everyone's hoping for a new trailer.

"in game footage"
how about they show some "gameplay footage"

Preferably Yas Marina gameplay footage, and some ovals for the Indy cars.
Forza desperately needs a Talladega, or a Daytona.

It looks realtime, that I'm not doubting.
But we've seen how AI cars drop in polycount in game, and even the player's car loses some parts and details (engine etc).
Not to mention IQ.
Game looks good enough, but I'm not sure how it compares to old Prague footage.
Well find out

Yeah, that's the thing. They are all in the super high poly mode and all their best "homespace" shaders are loaded.

Then again, maybe stupidly high poly models and high quality shaders kick in during replays. Doubt it, but it's the only instance where you "might" notice anyway.
This is by no means all we have planned for this week, but thought you guys/gals might find it of interest.

Good to know that car packs will still have ten cars, hopefully the price isn't too inflated due to Forzavista. My bet for the special inclusion of the first pack is the LaFerrari.
I think everyone is waiting on a Track Pass now...
Ooooh... totally expected but I'm never comfortable when DLC is announced before the game is even out.
What will the full, complete game end up costing this time?

Good to know.
Not a popular opinion here I know - but I was one of those who got every bit of Forza DLC.
I know, I know, I'm part of the problem. But then given how much I play Forza (and would with GT if it got its act back together) it is very good value for money entertainment.
I'm still playing and enjoying Forza 4 - and I still play it more than new games today. So spread over the months since release it's a bargain.
Any word if Forzavista/Autovista versions of DLC cars will include spoken reviews through the Top Gear partnership? ("We don't know yet" is a totally legitimate answer)

How is it possible to announce a Season Pass with pretty much no details? LOL

Nice, but how about a track pass? I mean, we are already getting a lot of cars, but if you guys would bundle 10 cars and 1 new track as a nice little package, I am sure that almost every Forza 5 owner would buy it hands down.
Love the focus on cars, but you guys need to focus on tracks/environments etc.

It's going to be the Halo 5 Warthog.
Except this time it's drivable.

It certainly wouldn't surprise me. A lot of people are going to buy whatever pack it shows up in, (myself included).
As for a Track Pass, I'm skeptical given that each of the last 3 games had less track DLC than its predecessor, (with none for FM4), but they couldn't possibly include all those SmartGeometrics scans on day one, right?

FM5 easily has the best track line up to date so I really don't think we need to worry too much abouttrack DLC. Since we are only getting little over 200 cars, car DLC is really important.

You can never have too many tracks.
Plus adding just two or three new ones would add so much longevity to the game.
DLC tracks, if well made and integrated into season mode, have a lot of value for me.

Tracks would be nice, but who doesn't like tuning new cars. This isn't bad in my opinion.
This is exactly what I've been waiting for. I'll definitely purchase this. And hopefully get the rest of the car packs for free during GWD sessions.
tracks? please!

Interesting you paint, tune, and use forzavista in the same place. Like each car has a hub where you can interact with it.
As far as dlc goes, I thought the pass for forza4 was a decent value, relatively. I am in for a pass on this one. Track dlc though... It needs to be better integrated into the game.
