Excellent, looking forward to it. It's been wonderful seeing more content these past few weeks.
Any chance of a direct feed lap around La Sarthe?

I hope so, because my jaw is still sitting in its place
Helios, I got one question, when possible ask around:
given that this is the first time ever t10 are launching their game along with a new console,
is it reasonable to expect that at least a part of t10 team will continue working on small improvements in f5, after release?
or it will go down like usual, like fix any bugs if there, have a team do the dlc and move on to the next project?
I mean, it sure is possible that in a month from now, the coders will have done some things even better than what they did when they had to reach day1 goal.
Will these improvements find their way into forza 5, or everything discovered after nov.22 will goto forza 6/horizon 2?
I know its not a fancy question, but i'll be happy with a fancy answer
thanks
Awesome. I hope there's more MUSTANG news coming. Or details on online multiplayer.

Hey there,
Can you give me a couple of examples you're thinking about when you say "small improvements".
Obviously we'll be monitoring community feedback once we're released, and issue updates to fix reported issues and where appropriate and feasible make some tweaks to the game.
The same replay camera angles from previous games.
I was expecting for something more cinematic OR tv-like.
resolution is overrated.
great video, the track looked absolutely fantastic from what i could see. looking forward to gifs made from the higher quality video later today.

Just been to a mates garage to sort out a new set of alloys and he's got a rallyspec metro 6r4. Helios fancy getting on to dan to tell him to stick one in the game. Ill get him to let you borrow it if you need it for modelling.
Here you go - http://forzamotorsport.net/en-US/news/Audi_ViDoc_FM5
Helios, why wasn't the higher quality version released first? Why even let this crappy compressed abomination to be released into the public domain, let alone be the first glimpse we get of it? I imagine I'm not the only one who has seen the shitty version and doesn't need to watch it twice.
Stuff like this baffles me. Turn 10 does have some sort of PR strategy, don't they? Somebody actually in charge of media liaison? It all seems so bloody random all the time. We get 'official' media releases and announcements hours (or even days) after we've already seen them leaked on some generic gaming website. There doesn't ever seem to be any structure or coordination going on. We even get contradictory messages from different Turn 10 staffers in interviews. It's laughable.
Bugatti Circuit is also back!

Well that was quick!
We released it to numerous outlets in various territories in 1080p yesterday, it looks like the EVO upload was the only one that was picked up here by you guys. Unfortunately the video player on that site doesn't appear to support high res.
More news out about Forza Rewards for Forza 5.
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/10/31/forza-5-play-past-games-get-free-cars
Starting today, players can login to Forza Rewards and claim in-game credits based on their experience with the series. The amount of credits you've earned classifies which tier you're in, and which cars you're eligible for.
More info at the link above.

Nice. Full Le Mans is great to drive, but I think Bugatti Circuit is a bit better for normal racing. Easier to learn for people, more balanced in terms of demands on the car, and just generally provides closer racing.
You are not alone =)
Stellar news.

Me too.
Hey HeliosT10 is there a way I can buy into the VIP programme for Forza 5? I normally buy the CE edition, but plan to go digital only this generation so I assume I will miss out on the CE features this time around?

ahem...soo, more news coming today or tomorrow ?
Right? This didn't quite do it for me. I was hoping for yas marina, or open wheel gameplay, some track announcements, or something. Oh well, I'm used to it by now.
Sorry for not replying immediately, but customers seem to run in shop everytime I want to write something
By small improvements I mean improvements that are not bug fixes or leaderboard cheating related maintenance.
Like for example, iirc there was a patch that improved the hands animation in f3 after release. (I don’t care for cockpit, I brought this as an example)
Could be any kind of improvement. Lets say for example come Christmas the core dudes discover a better way to render, or a much better way to do sound effects. Will such things be patched in fm5 as improvements, or they simply go towards the next project?
I know the team has been working their asses off, I can see what they are bringing to xbone day1 in relation to what others are bringing, and that’s why I’m asking.
edit:
Helios, come on, throw me a bone on ANY information regarding online multi. When will that be addressed? The community would LOVE to be able to tune in lobby between matches.
Edit: I'm just curious how the leaderboards will work this time around. Will there be a separation for users with and without assists?

stuff like changing replay camera angles for La Sarthe, since they appear to be exactly the same as FM4's (i just checked)
Thanks, will be looking forward to hearing the answer!
Still hoping I can get the day one car pack purchasing the game digitally on day one
Yes, lobby tuning! Please!
Edit: Of course, lobbies may be fundamentally different this time around, given the multitasking in the Xbox One. I'd love to know how this is going to work.
Will have it up in a second.
of course, it is only reasonable.
thats why I asked if you can ask around etc.
its not something I would expect the answer immediately.
BUT
it would be nice if -lets say- t10 leave a window open, like 6month period, where every new discovery they make about xbone, they sum up and patch the improvements in game after release.
now, of to see the new vid.

tl;dr
I said wow...
I am trying to be objective, I swear. But Dan sometimes speaks stuff like he is deliberately trolling all people that have serious expectations out of Forza series. And his commentary in this video is greatest trolling of LeMans race ever in context of delivery.
Sorry for being negative, but I really had to comment on it.
Great graphical upgrade in replays and I so love debris detail. I hope imperfections in headlamps, as seen on the first P1 stationary renders in Prague, will be part of "decay" for cars.

Yeah, it thought it was pretty funny to use footage of a 24h race to advertise this game and also mention all this teamwork stuff, when there's not even a pit crew in the game.
