Why are the (significantly better/more complex?) TM wheels ready to go but not MadCatz?

The TM could have been built on the experience of designing the T500.
Madcatz have never released a quality wheel afaik.

To be fair, the Madcatz XO wheel only looks like the next evolution from their 360 FFB wheel.
Seems like both would have been pretty easy to get out of the door.

Doesn't it also use a belt system?
Maybe I had it confused with the TM.

Rivals class screen in question:
The structure has definitely been changed. E- and F-classes are seemingly gone, and P-class is new.
There definitely aren't as many slowpokes as in past games, but I imagine the class reshuffling is due more to accommodating the high-end Indy and Formula cars.

Cockpit view isn't too bad. Not as low and unusable as other games (Although I think they have made it a bit higher than it really is, to help)

DRS works on the Lotus then.
Wonder if it's user controlled or automatic?

Why are Gamespot putting these videos up at 30fps... they managed to get the first one up at 60, and all others since have been 30.
Man, they really have worked on that 3D sound positioning.
Fucking brilliant!
Correct me If I'm wrong, but am I hearing suspension/chassis effects?
God, I wish Nick Wiswell had an account here...
Nick, come in and join the fun mate!

Huh... the Lotus even has DRS
so so good. terrific lighting here especially. and nice to see multiclass racing returns
I'm sorry, but those shifting animations look fucking idiotic. Distractingly awful. All that good work tarnished...

Yeah, spatial awareness via audio seems to have taken a step forward, but I boo and hiss at the lack of awesome energy-recovery-via-flywheel-accumulator audio.
Get on it, Nick!
yeah i have tryied it but prefer cockpit but hood does work alot better am not a fan F1 style of cars but after the recent footage am looking forward to trying it 22nd can't come fast enough

Cool, La Sarthe has the new Michelin timing board on the pit lane straight.
Not that i have seen would love to know this info aswell maybe turn 10 is still adding to the patch and thats why they havn't give us a GB size yet
so I downloaded and watched both videos, and to say the truth, I feel a little like this:
anybody else feels like he is in the same boat?
small detail: the "old" gasoline guzzler, the audi R8 race car, with that beauuuutiful v8 fsi twin turbo, was a 5-time leMan winner, and only lost to a bentley race car, that -get it- they put the same engine on it before pulling the audi gasoline for diesel engines
when they moved on to "diesel power", I was told that whenever they happened to have a chance to test both cars on hotlapping, the "old" R8 fsi would still rip the diesel newer race cars in absolute times.
I dont know if this holds still true for the r18 too, but at that last turn the way the r8 attacked sure reminded me of the above (unofficial) story. 8)

I just want to understand if it is a patch of content or is it around other stuff, will It be needed for the game to be playable?
Because content seems to be reserved for DLC now so I am just clueless to what the hell is the patch about or what we can expect to be different from the build that the press has been playing...

I still stand by what i've said before.
There's two ways they can fix this:
1- Add all DLC content day one/reduce the price
2- Include all Aussie cars day 1.
If the latter is chosen, I'll be Turn 10's bitch forever and become FordXYGTGuy.

3- Just dump a bunch of missing Forza 4 stuff in to the game unchanged.

As far as i am aware it was mentioned somewhere that the patch would be need to finish the single player side
they havent mentioned the day one dlc content in a very long time and now all press is specifically stating content "on the disc". i'm bracing myself for all of that to have been shifted to paid dlc down the road...

No, that was corrected. You can play through the entire game and get all achievements without connecting to the internet.
The patch adds some extra cars and tracks, just like in Forza 4.

Le Mans qualifying times for the R8 were around 3:30, with the R18 e-tron dipping below 3:24, even with comparable trap speeds on the long straights. The R18 could also sustain near-qualifying pace for much longer runs.
As much as I loved the old veteran, (especially in the hands of privateers), the new car puts it in the shade.
So that would mean that day one game with patch would have more than 14 tracks and 200 cars?
Not counting paid DLC?
Well thats a better solution then all i ask from turn 10 is that all tracks make it into single player modes
No. Patch and on disc equal 200 cars 14 tracks

New 'P' class. Presumably for LMP cars.
It's like they animated Jeremy Clarkson showing off the paddle shifters in some car.
But there is none info of what would be the content that I would not be able to play If I do not have internet to download the content patch day one.
well, yeah, but when the r8 was competing officially, it had restrictors on the turbos that where larger than the size of the turbos hehe
that engine was a beast , and a masterpiece of technology testbed

Thanks Blim, Youtube 1080 can make next gen look last gen. We need you now more than ever! Forza still looking good!
Ditch that aussie stuff. First basics, later exotics.

All of the MS Stores are supposed to be have Forza 5 playable starting today. There is one literally across the street from where I work so I am going to go check it out on lunch.
I will let you know what build it is.

Bill Gates tried (he propositioned Sony about doing the OS and Sony the hardware on one console), but Kutaragi helped shoot the idea down.
lol, somehow I managed to miss your post!
Of course I agree with you, I am the one yelling the most about microsoft's greed here.
But I do feel like throwing money in what I see on the screen there, and thats not microsoft.
that's some god-dam talented and hardworking coders.
these, these I want to pay! mucho!
also I want to see an interview of the engine & physics teams and chiefs, those who get their hands dirty! i respect those
60% increase in dlc price is a shitty thing to do,
day 1 paid dlc is also a shitty thing to do,
possibility of a more than one 50e passes is just crazy!
they need to be burned by this.
but thats microsoft, not t10, and especially not t10 coders!
so, yeah, again what leBoef said
the only reason I want aussie cars in, is so i can beat you in your favorite car!
I'll even buy them just for this
