I want to pre-order this game digitally but I am confused as to whether the Hoonigan car pack comes with all pre-orders or just the Xbox Store ones? Any answer is appreciated.
Yep, that was changed due to community feedback from E3/gamescom.
Hey Helios! How long until the preview footage embargo? Like in hour terms? Can't wait to see footage from the full game

Morning UK time, don't want to be more specific than that as it's not me who's going to be doing the uploading and pushing things live

The lengths the Forza team went to to make the Dubai track are amazing - melting cameras, staff going a bit loopy in the sun: https://news.microsoft.com/en-gb/20...k-melted-a-camera-and-took-its-toll-on-staff/

Hnnng looks so good. I don't have room for a 100gb game on my slides state drive, though, without deleting tons of other games. I may have to hold off on this until I beat enough games to make room.
Isn't it morning in the UK now?Morning UK time, don't want to be more specific than that as it's not me who's going to be doing the uploading and pushing things live

It's just before 9am here. I reckon the demo will drop around 11am, as that's often the case with other uploads.
But with luck sooner.

I believe Turn10 said 6pm.

Ah yes, if it's not until afternoon it'll be 6pm, which is when almost all Forza DLC is released.

Is it not normally around 2pm that they update the store for us?

Yes but Forza stuff tends to be later in the day. If the demo follows the pattern of Forza DLC it will be 6pm.

ok, so TOD seems to be dynamic too
https://youtu.be/OExRhVRYg-g
race starts at dusks and gets pitch black by the end
dunno why the weird wording by T10

This we always knew, no? That the TOD changes in the race, or the weather can change. It does not mean fully dynamic tho to some people since it's still "baked" in a sense that not all options are available on all tracks, iirc?

Dynamic headlight shadows are back from Forza 6 too. Glad to see that, hope FH4 follows suit.

Eh, the wording was a bit strange as it made it sound like TOD was alternate and weather was dynamic. Was also unclear if it was baked or real time and available on all tracks, same for weather.
Can it rain in Prague ?
Probably easy to check by looking at tree shadows or any other objects along the track. If it's moving accordingly over time during the race, it's safe to assume it's not prebaked.
And the availability for any track etc etc.

Looks to me like Polaris paid quite lot of money to promote their golf carts again.
Also please PM me if any standard Xbox One footage surfaces.
Arcade racer confirmed.

We also have 5 new gameplay videos in 4K/60fps on our YT channel.
And especially a video about something we don't see a lot : damages / physics tests :

Forza Motorspot series always sits between arcade and racing sim. It's by no means Need for Speed but it's goal is always let player have fun, not simulation(the rewind feature is the embodiment of this). It's really good at let you think you're good at driving cars with a controller. I would say it's gamey than both Gran Turismo and Project Cars.
People keep comaparing it with Gran Turismo but they forget they are indeed mechanically different with different goals in mind.

What is this image??
It seems to be from the career mode based on the first 15 minutes of it on IGN's youtube.

Yeah, I mean I'm getting an X anyway, but want to see what I'll be playing for a month before that.
Eh, he only played the 3-race demo, the same we will play in 7 hours (8 because of downloading).

Oh OK, I was kind of hoping it was your virtual garage with all your cars in, that would've been amazing.
