this is t10 lol

What do you mean.

You do know that this "jaws will drop" quote wasn't anything said to the media but rather taken from an update Dan posted on his personal Facebook profile regarding upcoming press tours and us showing off the latest and nearly final build of game?

Thanks, there it is. I hate when people take random quotes out of context and use it for their agenda.

Here you go P3tran. The vid was all QKFlush's hard work. No apologies to those who like their virtual cars au natural. =p

The video that Soze has linked is great. The one artist we were talking about in particular, Ollie, was probably the best out of many great artists in Forza 2.
very nice video, thank you guys!
lots of art in them cars 8)

NOW you tell us..! :p

So that's it for this week? No Yas Marina reveal tomorrow at, you know, the Abu Dhabi GP? No secret night mode?

Fake preorder cancelled.

Was expecting jaw-dropping news like a lot of other people based on Dan's quote. There's no "agenda".

I was under the impression that someone mentioned the Facebook thing when it was first referenced, it's been a busy few days though so I could be wrong :)

Anyway, don't be disheartened we still have a lot more info to reveal and media to release between now and launch.

You know, after everyone screaming for open wheel footage - and then we get two videos even, the reaction was pretty dim. Hard to please I guess. Was there a thread made on those even?

If you feed a starving man too quickly it doesn't go well ;)
 
I'm over the moon with it, the racing looks dead exciting now. Loved seeing the suspension and car shaking, really reacts well to the track surface.

Quality of the video though, Jesus, they should have wanged a decent 1080p /60 straight onto the Xbox media site. It's terrible.

Who knows - maybe replay footage of a full grid with Atoms racing X-Bows, Caterhams etc would have caused more of a buzz. We're getting a lot of footage of just one car on track (four for the Indy cars).

What is the max grid size for singleplayer? Do we know yet?

Something just occurred - I wonder if animating the suspension will reduce the grid size for all open-wheeler races? it's more work for the GPU, no?
 
I dunno T10 usually work well within the limits to avoid frame rate drops, I'd have thought they budgeted for those.

Fucking well better not be less than 16.

hope in forza 6 they finally get the arms right, they should look to this as a perfect example

That video isn't 60fps... yet it looks smooth as silk. I'm guessing incredible use of motion blur?

(yes - nice arms).

16 is semi-confirmed for MP, isn't it?

Well its a problem with the delivery method. 30fps on YouTube, or shitty compression at Gamespot.

this is what you get for releasing honest ingame footage.
t10 could have released a trailer, used replay footage or a montage.

they could have made these reveals a lot more spectacular, but instead they decided to be pretty straightforward.
as a result that other thread grew with some of the most idiotic comments ive seen on gaf.

game looks and sounds perfect


also, thats not to say i would mind a trailer/ montage with lots of different things to comment and analyze :p

Totally agree i wanna see parts of the career maybe some tuning showing me 1 car going around a track on its own is not really good a full track would have been better but none the less the suspension looked great

I really want to see the user interfaces, the tuning menu, the livery option, the online menu!

That's worth talking about! Any information where people can guess at what this feature does or that feature are good for realease information. It keeps a stir, as well as keeping people talking about your game. Just screen shots of these would suffice.

thats a pointy face!
 
Finally got caught up with that open-wheel hotness. Not a bad way to cap off what turned out to be a rather good week.

Fuck me, is that Atom going to be a proper riot to take by the scruff of the neck and fling around, and those IndyCars looked, (and sounded, yessireebob), just incredible, even if they were running the Brickyard in road course aero trim. No biggie, we know the proper oval kit is in too.

But the best news?

Forza Bob is no longer a double foot amputee. Gotta give the dude credit for hanging in for as long as he did. I'd imagine doing a heel-and-toe is a bit tricky when you haven't got either.

ok, rewatching the footage, silverstone does indeed loook good. still cant watch the other clip - its an oval.... i keep falling asleep a few seconds in. like spa though, i'd love to see better quality - these in particular look rough. also, still waiting for gamespot to figure out their 60 fps video isnt 60 fps.

So when are those builds and media events happening?

Ah right, thanks.

Oh well, not bad.

There is a video on the xbox youtube page posted not more then a month ago and at the 2.08 time stamp it shows the hopper lobby UI with only 16 slots. I'll have to find the video again, but I know it's at the 2.08 time stamp.

Edit: I found it, it's called "a closer look at multiplayer for the new xbox one" I'm on my phone or else I would post a
Ink.

Hi Helios, Can we have another confirmation that the Ferrari 250 GTO is indeed the real 1962 MK I version and not the 1964 MK II version labelled as 1962?

Thank you!

It says 2-16 multiplayer on the box.

I might have seen a shot of that, sounds familiar.

GameSpot's 60fps runs like shit for me, is it worth trying another browser or is it like that for everyone?

I expect exquisite stuff.

MMM

One bonus that next-gen should deliver is ultra-responsive 60fps menus in all next-gen games. Sluggish UIs in this gen are a bloody nightmare and a personal hate of mine.

Edit: not referring to Forza when I mentioned sluggish menus - Forza's are great already.
 
Hey guys, question. Does Forza 5 actually have no AA? I always see people on gaming side try to discredit it with "NO AA AND BAKED LIGHTING." but the no AA just sounds wrong to me. It has AA, right?

Forza will give us another Warthog, eh? Needs moar Top Gear.

The series is probably the only racing game that doesn't put me to sleep either.

Probably a combination of a weak computer and weak Gamespot player. 60fps flash or H264 takes some horsepower to decode.

There's some AA, maybe 2xmsaa.

Not enough, I'm hoping for some optional FXAA or something, don't like the overly sharp look.

i wonder how long i'd last if i always went around pointing out that fm5 renders twice as many frames and probably at least 2-3x as much physics calculations per second as certain other next gen racing games...
