With Forza 6 Turn 10 have proven they haven't forgotten how to produce something special with Forza 6, from the roster of 450 cars, 26 locations to race at and
the power of the cloud ensuring that you feel like you are racing with your 23 of your buddies, add to that night racing and racing in the rain featuring Turn 10's
physically based 3D puddles™ technology to enable the experience of aquaplaning at speed, while maintaining a physics engine running at 240fps this is the Forza that we deserved for a 10th anniversary release.
Forza 5 was a seminal release for Turn 10, it laid all the ground work for what was to become Forza 6, it's now apparent that they had their eye so strongly on this years release that no sexy lady can divert.

Release date: 9/15/2015

Install Size: 45.86GB

Features :-

Avatar customisation : For the first time in the mainline series chose a female or male avatar.

Drivatars : As with F5 Drivatar tech learns how you and your friends drive. All this info gets collected and uploaded/downloaded to you and your friends so that you can race them even when they are not online. This is not just ghost racing, the drivatar is an ever-evolving opponent. They've fine tuned aggression this time to make it less of a fluster cluck on the first lap, but if your friends digital personas are still A-holes there is an option to make them wimp out.

Rivals – Rivals returns, here you compete with friends ghosts on varying challenges to earn in-game credits. You get notified of possible challenges you may want to try via the message hub.

Multiplayer – Smart Match matchmaking will help keep multiplayer competitive and balanced. While Dedicated servers will make getting in and playing those races a much smoother experience. A much more intuitive lobby system is in place compared to Forza 5...

Graphics – Forza 5's graphics engine has been refined, we still have realistic visuals running at 1080p/60 frames per second, with the damage model shows every bump and scrape, while roads collect tire rubber and debris; but now we have smoke from trackside stands wafting over the track, sand blows onto the track in places like Laguna Seca, rain moves across the windscreen as you slide around corners, making the world feel more alive than before.

Forzavista – Forzavista returns so you can get up close with the ones you love. The cars are rendered in ultra detail with working doors, hoods and trunks. You’ll even be able to turn the key and hear the roar of the engine.

Custom designs : Design your own custom liveries and decals and share them with the community to earn credits.

eastx posted a beginners guide here,

[Noobcraft]

Forza Turns 10.

Great job on the OT

 

[dc89]

As a recent Xbox One owner I still haven't finishe Forza 5 which came with my console. I think I'll halt playing that and pick up this in due course.

 

[RedRum]

Nice OT!

 

[Lakerchick4life]

Thinking about pre ordering this game through Best Buy since I have credit with them, I have Forza 5, Im so bad at these racing games I always hit the wall LOL what do you all think, worth purchasing?

 

[malfcn]

No title? Nice edit and ot.

 

[0.1.1.2.3.5.8.13.21.34.55]

Enjoy!

 

[Lakitu]

Great OT, not getting it but nice work.

Why isn't Fujimi Kaido in this?

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

Great job on the OT! I like forza turns 10 as the OT title as well.

My own pitch was, Forza 6 |OT| Gone in 60 frames per second, but I have a feeling it's been done already.

 

[frontieruk]

No title? Nice edit and ot.

Only semi official OT I did ask about the title in the thread we've been living in, but there was no reply
Looks like I was quick enough to get it updated winning!

I was going to do a play off that but with

Writing an OT at 60fps

As this has been put together in the last 90minutes or so.

 

[ManteoMax]

Mod Buff is actually collect 50 mods, changed after the initial announcement. https://account.xbox.com/en-US/Achievements/XboxOne/1694054782/25 Note that Cover Car must be bought since it doesn't trigger with the gift from playing the Demo.

 

[Majanew]

Last min OT?

 

[Dynasty]

Forza 6 |OT| FM6 is a good game but isn't a good Forza game.

Yeah felt wrong not getting something till Tuesday/Wednesday next week, have VE3TRO blessing to post this.

Well you did a great job then! I honestly thought that you were using the stuff from the person who was supposed to do it but I didn't know how finished it was lol.

Can't wait till the full release so I can participate in some nice and friendly Forza GAF events!

If I'd hit send this morning I probably would of been, but when I checked my sent box I hadn't messaged VE3TRO so I sent a quick message and he'd packed everything for his flight so didn't have access to the files...

So here's my take on it.

 

[Majanew]

OT updated thanks


Yeah felt wrong not getting something till Tuesday/Wednesday next week, have VE3TRO blessing to post this.


Ouch...

Good job on the effort. I just don't understand why people ask to do OTs and then they wait forever to make it. It's not like information isn't everywhere about the games to make an OT.

 

[Dominator]

OT should be "10 Years in the Making" or something like that lol

EDIT: Already updated.

 

[frontieruk]

Good job on the effort. I just don't understand why people ask to do OTs and then they wait forever to make it. It's not like information isn't everywhere about the games to make an OT.

I didn't ask, the original author is traveling so couldn't post it. As far as I'm aware it's together just needed formatting for BBCode

 

[M.W.]

Nice OT

 

[MasterHoodie]

Forza 6 |OT| VROOM VROOM VROOM VROOM VROOM VROOM

 

[strafer]

Finally a OT without a stupid subtitle.

Good job. Amazing job.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Excited to pick this up on Tuesday, although I am disappointed that there aren't any P2P tracks in it.

 

[LoveCake]

Last min OT?

Yes, well the game has been out for Ultimate Edition owners for three days or so now.

 

[frontieruk]

I miss the p2p tracks as well

Yes, well the game has been out for Ultimate Edition owners for three days or so now.

GAF rules no OT until a week before the official release date, Ultimate users got a perk for spending more cash.

 

[StudioTan]

Really want to play this, it's taking all my willpower to not spring for the ultimate edition. Just a few more days.

 

[RoKKeR]

Forza Turns 10

 

[terrible]

Good stuff. I can't wait until the 15th.

 

[Cheddahz]

Let me just say, this game is a huge improvement over Forza 5 and I would like to thank Turn 10 for fixing the menus, because it's so much easier to find the car that you want to buy now than it was before

 

[frontieruk]

Let me just say, this game is a huge improvement over Forza 5 and I would like to thank Turn 10 for fixing the menus, because it's so much easier to find the car that you want to buy now than it was before

Still a complete PITA to buy multiple cars though. Soooooo slow.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

Forza Turns 10

Well this explains some of the drivatar behavior.

 

[rokkerkory]

great OT, thank you

 

[Deaf Spacker]

Let me just say, this game is a huge improvement over Forza 5 and I would like to thank Turn 10 for fixing the menus, because it's so much easier to find the car that you want to buy now than it was before

It's pretty much what Forza 5 should have been.

 

[JackAubrey]

Great OT,thanks for your time and effort.

 

[zorbsie]

Subbed!
Nice job on the last minute OT FrontierUK!
Can't wait to get into this and hopefully start some ForzaGAF league racing soon. Great times racing with the gang in FM5. Looking forward to doing it again in this game.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Awesome OT

Will be 3rd racing game I have purchased this Gen-

 

[timlot]

Very nice, well put together.

Just watch out for Evo, he claimed the walls had it in for and were jumping out infront of him the other night...

 

[Fox Mulder]

Can't wait. Didn't want to pay $100 or whatever though for early access.

 

[Falchion]

Loved the FAQ, thanks for the OT!

 

[Azzawon]

Last min OT?

VE3TRO had dibs on this OT, so I'm guessing this is going to be updated in the meantime

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

This game is incredible. I loved FM5 warts and all, and this just blows it away.

 

[willbsn13]

Great OT frontier!

 

[Azzawon]

This game is incredible. I loved FM5 warts and all, and this just blows it away.

I'll second that, FM6 makes FM5 feel like trash in every way possible, and FM5 was damn good in my books.

 

[SolarMystic]

Been loving it so far! An upgrade to 5 in almost every possible way.

 

[jello44]

Hopefully Best Buy ships my copy soon.

 

[TheAdmiester]

Hoping that the issue with being limited to 5 Drivatars per real player is just a glitch or a server issue. I'm dying to create bucketed races with AI but right now having 6 cars in a race make it feel like I'm stuck in 2003.

 

[LoveCake]

I think that Forza 5 was rushed out for the X1, it seemed to be missing so much content from what Forza 4 had, but Forza 6 takes it to true next-gen imo.

Loving all the new tracks, pity there is no Fujimi Kaido track though, saying that there are loads of variations of the tracks already in the game, pity there is no snow falling on the Alps track though, but that being said, the game is fantastic.

Just need these cars in the game though imo;

Mitsubishi GTO LM Edition that was in the original Gran Turisimo game, that was a truly fantastic car.

Lamborghini Egoista

Ferrari FXX Evo
Ferrari 599XX Evo
Ferrari FXX K

Nissan GT-R LM Nismo

Sauber C12

Jaguar XJR-9
Jaguar XJR-14

 

[dedhead54]

Tuesday can't come soon enough. I'm going to have a hard time balancing this and MGS5 but it also feels good to have multiple great games just released and more on the horizon. Love this time of year!

I think this is a issue T10 are looking into - per their FM.net forums. Maybe sorted in a day one patch?
