Forza 5 Showroom | New cars and details for Forza 5, ongoing reveals

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 as certain other next gen racing games...

Yep, the physics calculations part doesn't get nearly as much attention. Forza is doing more technically than people ever seem to realize.

That said, I still hope it has some kind of AA solution. I also I can't believe I missed that new Forza 5 footage, wow. :)

oh boy oh boy! man, that looks great! sebring was such a cartoony looking track before, but this looks fantastic
 
Wow the detail at Sebring is amazing. Brilliant stuff T10.

I've always liked the track but hated the overly bright surface in Forza, have no problems with the FM5 version. Lovely.

I don't tend to nitpick, but when they show the onboard, the tire looks fucked up. A big old ridge in it that sticks out like a sore thumb.

Looks wonderful otherwise.

its kind of weird that in all these direct feed gameplay videos they never show the transition from one camera view to the next and instead cut away only to show the next view a second or two ahead on the track. wonder if there is some bug with the builds or something? any who, just odd.

sebring looks great (but it is another boring track)


(positano, show it!)

Damn that looked good. X-Bow! I like how the driver adjusts his hands on the wheel, nice touch.
Sebring is also one of my favourite tracks, dunno why.

It's because they are video transitions not ones from the actual game. These videos are edited highlights from a lap.

I have a love/hate relationship with Sebring. So iconic - glad it's back. Looking to be a very nice track list.

I wonder if the laser scanning (I'm assuming it was done to this track?) made it more bumpy or less bumpy.

Cranked my audio at home and listened to the two new videos. CAN NOT WAIT TO GET IT ON THE 5.1

Is that a quick reverberation and "woosh/distortion" when the Atom goes under that Silverstone Overpass later in the video?
 
I love lapping on Sebring, especially turns 14-16, and of course, Sunset Bend. That one ought to be fun with the new physics.

Turn 10 really has nailed the trackside ambiance this time. The crowds, the trailers, the 'copters, it finally looks like a proper race day, and not just a handful of rubberneckers in RVs pulling up to check things out. The pre-race pit crew interactions are a great touch as well.
If only they had something to do during the race.

Great video, as always. Keep 'em coming!

wow the trackside detail makes the track look so much better, it feels like Florida now.

Bathurst footage will make me tear up, most likely.

Holy Crap! Posted Seabring while I'm checking out audio on the other two...lol, awesome.

So much detail too!

Dat supsension spring at 2:00....my jaw finally dropped....drool
 
Wow, Sebring looks sooo much better! the transformation is incredible, was one of the blandest and worst iluminated tracks (white tarmac everywhere).
Amazing work Turn10!

i get that, but its always when the camera changes. makes me think the two are related (as in, they are hiding the real camera changes for some reason). i'm sure if i'm right its a non-issue though. no concerns here.

This looks so much better than the Laguna Seca build I played, the road markings look like actual paint on the road and not like a seperate thing - maybe Laguna Seca did not get it's love yet?

it was definitely an older build, heres hoping. everything else has looked considerably better.


any rumors on infineon? i'd imagine its a given. i love that track. would be nice to see it in x1 glory, maybe in the spring and a bit greener though :)

Holy shit.

The lighting on that track (every track should be lit like that).

The visible suspension in-car.

Sadly, still have reflective roads, but at least it's not as bad as it has been before. Sebring's never looked so damn good.
 
WIR is up.

Sounds like the embargo for the recent press event lifts next week:

This week, a crack team of Turn 10 folks (including our own Mechberg) spent three days in San Francisco as part of an Xbox One preview event designed to show off the Xbox One to international press. Naturally, one of the highlights of the event was Forza Motorsport 5, and it was great for the team to be able to show off the game to the press and give them a taste of what to expect.

While we’d love to be able to tell you more about the experience, all of the information from the event is under wraps until next week – November 6, to be exact. Rest assured, however that there will be a deluge of Forza Motorsport 5 information coming to you from sources all around the Internet beginning next Wednesday, so be on the lookout!

Is this the event of jaws being dropped fame? Someone let Mascot know.

nothing wrong with reflective roads. happens all the time IRL. though it was definitely over done in previous games, looks great in 5.

My money is on the Audi.
Inferior in power/weight ratio but i'd imagine more efficient, faster corners, braking.

We need to know see the answer !

I agree, I'll take the big diesel over the F1. I think it would depend on the distance and track, but the Audi definitely has the torque/mpg advantage.

Man console war nonsense was starting to dampen my excitement for next gen but today has rekindled my interest for Day One
