I think we just saw a first glympse of the new Forza 5/XBOne wheel there. I am on the phone so I can't make screenshots.

Time to pack up our Fanatecs dear friends, new wheel standard have arrived. Probably a MadCatz, does not look like either Thrustmaster, Logitech of Fanatec.

BTW that guy saying about "factory pro drivers actually using Forza 4 to seriously prepare for Nurburgring 24 Hours"... Come on, why are you even saying that??
 

It will run 1080p upscaled or native, should've been the real answer.

No, my mistake, it is actually a MadCatz wheel, but for 360, something I have never seen before, some wireless model. I just googleimaged it, can't even believe they are showing that toy and no Fanatecs.

Forget, still nothing about the wheel.

About that picture above: flagship concept? Journey? Open roads hint? (far right)

Damage looks improved vastly.

Looks like some Mad Catz filth, if the system doesn't support Logitech they can do one. Have you heard anything about Sony pulling the same shit with the PS4?

Well if they are using the madcatz wheel for 360 on forza5, I guess that means there is hope for the Fanatec wheel

Don't hold your breath. You will have a choice of MS, Madcats and eventually? Fanatec.

Yeah, you will need to buy a new Fanatec.

I'm broke :(

Is it me or does the part with all the weather and stuff informations could be out of a career mode or loading screen. It seems to have an event date on there, hopefully that means a career mode similar to PGR4's.

Anyway, curious about "the journey" part. I hate it when there are hints like that, it drives my imagination crazy. I mean, imagine Top Gear events where you just have a great long roads to drive on, similar to the show's famous trips...

The biggest tease of all time!
 
I really wish they'd try some other way to promote the game. A trailer, one new flagship track, "turning car lovers into gamers" (LOL @ "unofficial motto"), Dan talks about the 360 Hz physics, new tyre model, new gimmicks, yadda yadda yadda. And then no one ever asks them the interesting questions and everyone's back to the guessing and dreaming game, while Helios is taking a nap.

That track layout looks godly.

I enjoyed Bernese Alps, but I think it was almost a little too fast. Really only became challenging with classes A and above.

This, though. Man. Its got like 3 or 4 double-apex sections, which are my absolute favorite types of corners. Counter-clockwise, that section at the bottom will be like a super high speed chicane, which is awesome. Just taking a mental lap of it, it would already be ridiculous on a flat area out in the plains somewhere, but as a street circuit? Damn.

Helios, tell us about the 'imperfection' thing.. 8)

is it exclusive for car paint imperfection, like orange peel effect that was mentioned, or the guys are also looking maybe in mechanical imperfection, like manifested in sound and damage..? :)

Maybe he's referring to the modelling quality.

Politest was of saying "eat shit, you ain't getting them redone."

A whole lot of juicy information on that track concept board but as far as I am concerned it all means nothing.

It has

Warm (track or air temperature?)
Sprg (spring?) Hazy ("weather")
Humidity Temperature (Fahrenheit) and time.

What this could mean is completely dynamic weather where seasons affect race conditions (winter seasons = more rain etc) with meaningful track temperature and air temperature simulations and dynamic time of day.

What I expect it to mean is absolutely nothing and random numbers thrown around to make it look like they mean something.

I want to be pleasantly surprised but to be honest, T10s track record doesn't fill me with any hope.

Can someone rehost that video at all? I can't access it at work. Even if it's re-uploaded to something like Mediafire, that'd be rad.
