I need to know which track configs are playable.

Here are the most commonly used track configs:

1. Nascar layout with new T11
2. AMA superbike with new T1, T9 chicane and new T11
3. Traditional layout with new T11

I don't know anyone who uses the old T11 so I'm not even sure why it's pictured....I could be wrong on the NASCAR T11 but when I saw bits of the race this year, they showed them using the new T11.

I've always enjoyed racing at Sears Point back in the GT days...

 

[drugstore_cowboy]

Just finished a session of Forza 2 before seeing that vid, quite amazing how far they've come on the same hardware, same old niggles with the high contrast look, I'll dial that shit out but yeah, very nice.

 

[G Rom]

As already stated by saladine, here are the layouts available :
Long Course
Indy Racing League Circuit
NASCAR Circuit
Drag 1/4-mile

body roll looks awesome and the cars look really heavy, niiiiiiice!

 

[RukusProvider]

Infineon Raceway. I always wanted to drive there. Even more than Spa or Bathurst!

Actually, Sears Point is highly regarded by anyone who's driven it. The rolling hills make the layout very challenging. It's a high concentration track also, there no place to relax and get your composure. You need to be on it at all times. Having raced there a lot personally and other local tracks, I don't know anyone who doesn't love Sears point. Don't get me wrong. I love Spa and I'm hoping to do a summer trip next year to Belgium and do a trackday at Spa but having Sears Point is any racing game is a major plus.

That video was awesome, man this game looks better and better with everything they feel like showing us. Even just the grass blowing in the wind was awesome. HNNNGGGG HYPE

 

[G Rom]

The screenshots of the track page without all the text :

I have to say, I'm really impressed by how good the track looks.

 

[ShapeGSX]

Check out the latest video too:

That's a staggering amount of track detail!

Cars sounded godly, that roaring GT40 at the end :

The music was the same playing during the menus during the E3 videos so yeah, must be Lance Hayes, so good !

 

[skyfinch]

Nice looking track, and the trailer was put together very nicely.

dat bodyroll!

Thanks.

The body roll is very noticeable in this vid.
Did anyone hear the Ford GT right in the end there?
Not only did it sound RAW (as in distorted,a very good thing),but you can hear the overrun quite clearly!
This is totally new to Forza....Nick Wiswell you beautiful bastard you!

The sense of speed at the beginning. This is gonna be soooo sick.

 

[Xanadu]

great backdrop in the first pic

 

[op_ivy]

HOLEEEE.... wow, that looks great!

Also excited as its a local track to where i was born and raised

 

[watership]

Track looks fantastic. Cars body roll is really nice to see in the muscle cars. The trailer was impressive and had a sublte touch. Nicely done Turn10.

 

[shinnn]

It's just me or tire squeal sounds better?

I think there's alternate time of day for this track too (edit: yeah it's confirmed in fm.net article)

 

[Mascot]

Holy mofo! That looks fucking amazing! Bravo! Sex wee! Jizzbiscuits!

 

[Broman1978]

Looks Amazing!

 

[rocksteady1983]

This is what I fully expect the quality of OUR photomode shots to be at.

yes, that's why i said that's probably a fake sound effect used in the trailer. Doesn't sound like the squel we heard ingame, but that might have changed.

alternate time of day was clear from the trailer, and i'm glad shadows cast from scenery change accordingly (it didn't look that way from hockenheim making of and broll videos)

 

[adelante]

This bit especially, amazing... like it was pulled directly off one of those Top Gear segments that they sometimes edit in high contrast.

 

[adelante]

The music was the same playing during the menus during the E3 videos so yeah, must be Lance Hayes, so good !

First thought that came to mine was "oh GAWD please let this music be Lance Hayes'. (video was stuttering on my shitty comp so that's all I paid attention to =p)

 

[shinnn]

the dof effect is incredible in this part

replay's camera effects looks really improved. Dof, motion blur.. even "shutter speed" like effects

it's actually a bit strange. Shouldn't the tire be blurred as the rim?

 

[eek5]

I noticed that too. Should look something like this

Maybe it's a bug or a resource issue. I thought it was odd though; the tire is actually spinning with the wheel but none of the effects are added to it.

it also looks like they are using high poly models in replay now

 

[skyfinch]

Probably just replaced the rim like most racing games.

 

[Mizzou Gaming]

Why aren't any of the FORZA 4 videos being put up on the LIVE Marketplace? I'm currently stuck navigating the internets with my Wii or PS3 browser and the videos look like blurry poo.

No clue. The other game I'm buying this year is Gears 3 and nearly every video they put out is up on marketplace. I think there's only 1 FM4 video.

 

[shinnn]

Yeah I think it's a problem with the 2D rim model. It looks great in motion though, because the tires still spinning.

Priorities.

 

[Mascot]

Infineon's got clouds in the sky. Fuck yeah!

 

[TheLegendOfMart]

Sorry if this has already been asked, will there be any F1 cars in FM4?

 

[Mascot]

Yes.







The McLaren F1.
(Three of which I saw today)

 

[brotkasten]

What are the chances that we'll get open wheelers in FM4? Didn't we have this "hint" about some classic F1 car, or was it BS? I'd be fine with a Caterham or Atom.

Infineon's got clouds in the sky. Fuck yeah!

And it looks beautiful.

Turn10 added one more square ("coming soon") to the manufacturers page. Looks like they got one more manufacturer in the last minute.

 

[derFeef]

Looks (and the cars sound) great.

OMG OMG OMG! It's

On another note:

From what I know, it was too difficult to put on the track using Forza tech, since the chassis is exposed and it's such a unique design. I'm glad we put it in Autovista, it's fun to hop around and get a sense of how immense the Warthog really is. Many of the contractors on Forza 4 were ex halo-devs, so it was exciting for us to bring the two worlds togther.

[Mascot]

Shit, I thought the old leaked screenshots already looked good but this video is just amazing !

Those 3Dave shots from a few nights ago? I really thought they looked awful, like some bad Xbox or PS2 game. But I guessed that was down to lack of IBL, filters, special magic and pixy dust. I knew the real thing would look good, but this video exceeds my expectations.

Can't wait to see what they've done with Montserrat!

Hmm.

No, not really!

 

[Mascot]

No, not really!

But Spa and Bathurst ARE day one DLC, yes?

 

[twinturbo2]

Either Turn 10 is trolling, or they're playing nice with EA now.

I shouldn't get my hopes up, should I?

 

[Mizzou Gaming]

I really wish they would have made a SPECIAL EDITION FORZA 360. I was thinking maybe make it out of chrome with maybe the FORZA logo or something. Or just keep it simple by just adding the chrome finish.
