Forza 5 Showroom | New cars and details for Forza 5, ongoing reveals
- Thread starter Gestault
- Start date
...oh. Lmao. I was like.. "umm." Odd though. Seems like something easy they can do.
yes amazing. I'd never - ever see them patches of yellow flowers if it wasn't for this guy
Wow...I've missed that too.
Watching that just shows that what "looks" like just textures and flat areas in Forza 5 at full speed is in fact INSANELY detailed. The grass areas are covered in grass. There are tons of bushes between the trees and draping over railings....and of course. A field full of yellow flowers that are just a blur when racing.
Still a slight blur in this image (partially the game...partially youtube compression), but you can see them.
Oh.. missed opportunity to show the white rims.

Yeah, there's an awful lot of previous FM cars.
I'm wondering just how many they remade.
Incorrect tiling value. . Easily fixable if they realize.

The driver is also in the car for some reason.
Looks like there are some glitches. If they didn't noticed it will be pointed out/fixed quickly most likely.
Another glitch...or a new feature? Hmmmmm
Looks purty as always.
yeah, i don't know how they didn't...
but i wonder what's going on with the game, it seems to be falling apart as the release date gets closer
I wouldn't say that. I'd think it's more in line with them showing unfinished assets that we ALL have been asking for. They may have churned out every car image and reveal weeks ago. It's just a matter of their website guy posting them according to plan.

i honestly believe its to set the "forza look" to help distinguish it as a brand and separate it from GT.
Cars in homespace. That caught me by surprise.
How the hell does that 599 tyre glitch get shown in an official reveal image? It's so bloody obvious. Does nobody even look at these pics before they are posted? Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.
And BIDNAT, if you are lurking - where are these tracks you owe us?

forza ama in reddit

yas marina and long beach are in along with spahurst, but somebody ask the dude what tracks from forza 4 he did not see, other than kaido and tsukuba (god damit I like tsukuba)

I'm scrolling down, expecting the guy to say "and then my daughter woke me up," any minute now.

until new media arises, here's an older video I found, where the guy playing is more interested in looking at the roadside graphics that actually racing.
he goes as slow as 10km/h and even stops so he can see better the surroundings

Yep, that really does look quite unbelievable. Awesome amount of detail.
I kinda agree. Forza has tended towards a bit more 'graphic' in appearance and color, while GT has (tried to) maintain a serious clinical photographic look. Even with the presentation of menus.
Nothing wrong with either. I like the look/concept of both games.
lol the headlights were the least of its worries but i really hope they have completely changed that, the proportions of that car were so strange

I can't see any sign of self shadowing on the home space pics.

Lol, sorry I did that to you guys
Anyway, sounds rather fishy.
On one hand I'm sure a Forza fan would instantly check the # of tracks and remember what he saw.
OTOH, he goes rather in depth with some of the details.

They have done stuff like this in the past, bringing in Forza players to put the game through the paces.
better physics, and less forgiving.
career is comprised of leagues, leagues are comprised of championship series, series have a number of races. all series are introduced by the topear guys, guy on reddit says this part is excellent and sups up the career mode.
when you leave the track, instead of slowdown you now have loss of control.
dude checked against cars that he usually drove in f4, and he thought all where improved.
upgrades are the same, but you get your performance benchmarks realtime while you do the upgrades now.
he did not get to check the editor because there was no livery editor in the build he tried.
Thanks. Also, didn't he think AI was ridiculously easy, even on the hardest setting, but might improve as Drivatar gets used more?
from what I understand, drivatar will indeed provide some decent AI challenge.
so I wouldnt worry about that. like i dont worry that he found no livery editor in the build he was let in

See, I do worry about it. FM4 had "adaptive AI" in World Tour mode which was supposed to constantly adapt to your driving skill and always provide a good challenge. Did it FUCK. It was broken from day one, set to perma-easy and never fixed.
I'll believe Drivatar when I see it working, especially considering the launch-day rush. Wendl said at E3 2011 that FM4 was all but finished and would be polished and refined between June and release day, yet it still launched with bugs and glitches. My days of believing Turn 10 PR are way behind me. Fool me once... can't get fooled again.
I hope my concerns are misplaced.

How do we know that guy is legit?
we will see. I think first time we will be able to judge them, is when we load the first batch of them from the servers.
I do believe though that this driving data collection and crunching in servers outside the system will work out better than having to do ai on the same box and at the same time you have to do graphics and physics and sound with it.
and if they manage to pull to a decent degree the thing where my trained ai pops in my friend's career (with my car for that class?) and beats his ass, then that I would call groundbreaking
we dont.
Roughly 80 total since the showroom started up, with 23 from this week.

Amazing graphics for car showroom / need side by side comparison to see improvements in game.
Too little tire smoke.
Fujimi kaido wasn't there, tsukuba wasn't there, Monza wasn't there.
Yas marina and long beach are in. Possibly more new ones but he can't remember/didn't think it was 'big'.
Nurburgring now has a GP + nordschleife connected (like pgr4's behemoth). Updated ? No idea.
Ariel atom. Several new cars. Not sure how many.
For some reason no one thought of asking how many cars on track.
For some reason no one asked about positano (doubt it made it anyway: I think long tracks and tracks with complex assets would have required too much work to update).
No one asked about pitstops.
Physics sound much less forgiving.
Oh heavens. I believe I have the vapors.

I wonder if they made the Nurburgring tracks actually match or just taped them together.
They were pretty different tracks in FM4. Bright blue skies and green grass in the GP track, overcast and dull in the Nordschleife.

Quite scary how bloody fantastic the lighting still looks in PGR4. Puts even FM5 to shame. So natural!
The replay cameras are fantastic too.

The lighting looks good, but I wouldn't say that video puts Forza 5's lighting to shame. Now, some of the original PGR4 footage with the car driving in the rain. Now that could probably give anything a run for its money.
Yes I wasn't necessarily talking about that video. I was talking about the whole game.
as good as pgr was -best arcade closed circuit racing- still there is a looong way for it to go before being compared to forza.
forza does so many more things on cars than lighting or rain, its not even comparable as a car game
( cue my saudi friend for example: http://youtubedoubler.com/asxA )

It kills me that we'll never see another Bizarre Creations made PGR or any other BC made game.
The proposed track list for FM5 is shaping up really nicely.

Silverstone pulls the natural look off well, hope the cars take on a desaturated look to match.

Silverstone itself looks good but a car on Silverstone doesn't look right as seen in the RS200 screenshot.
That Audi RS4 screenshot is definitely the most impressive to date and I think the Ferrari screenshot from this weeks reveal is from an older build or something.

Yeah you're right there, the car stood out like a sore thumb but it's never been hard to take a shitty photo in Forza, that and there's still work to be done.
Watching some of the long shots on the Top Gear track shows T10 can do realistic tones pretty well, even if it's a fluke.

that AMA sounds good. positano better be in though. someone ask. please. i cant stand to go back to fm3 and it will be harder once 5 and x1 hit i'm sure.
EDIT: ok, i did. car count on track, variable time of day, and camino as well.
