Very underwhelming. Too bad Turn 10 hates the idea of direct feed gameplay videos.
Second batch that sal posted look far better than the first. Big discrepancy, IMO.
Yea, in terms of gameplay shots. The Aston Martin in the first batch looks pretty damn amazing. Especially the livery.
autovista always looks good yes

Lighting is still flat as hell. Even with more power they can't get it right.
Has a very H3rTz DoNuT vibe to it. But yeah, the other shots look nice (thank god there's no overblown colours with what I assume are default settings), something funny with that Merc, though.

Love that they are hiding the graphics behind massive amounts of motion blur.
If they say "......thanks to the power of the Xbox One" one more time my eyes are going to roll so hard they fall out of my face.

60fps though.

The headlights aren't lit, I wonder if it's possible to turn them on and off or will they be used in an alternative time of day?
That's if Laguna has a different time of day.

There is no night time, there might be dusk tracks but I don't see you being able to turn headlights on.

I didn't say night, Forza 4 had alternative time of day for some tracks and we've seen the headlights on at Prague.
They've always done that unfortunately and I don't understand why because if it's anything like previous FM you can clearly take better pictures without so much blur...

Thank you. Hopefully the final grid number is befitting of a next-gen system.
Nice one Shaneus.THREE LAP 20 CAR OVERTAKE CHALLENGE
Some of the pictures give me a pCARS vibe, especially the close up shot of the Audi's nose and cockpit saladine1 recently posted.
zing! ..well, not yet, but one firm step closer.
ps. that old mercedes bending all tyres, and thinking about the new physics and laser scanned tracks.... oh boy.... 8)

Issue with the merc appears to be the seemingly matte paint job, uncharacteristic, which is then exacerbated by the flat reflective bumper

It's a bit of a bummer, isn't it, considering the cars at E3 had working lights and DRLs. The R18 loses something like half of its menace without those retina-searing LEDs being lit.
Still, I can hardly wait for some video footage of that mofo tearing around Laguna. Here's to hoping they nailed the sound of that flywheel KERS system.

Yeah I'd love a dawn or dusk at Laguna Seca to see it all lit up, I don't care if the headlights have no effect on gameplay.

Great comparison. The model itself is also improved, like the interior.
I'd put another pic there but I don't want to be lynched alive

Does look better, but not by a huge amount.

I think the biggest difference will be that you'll get a closer result to photo mode during gameplay as you would in Forza 4.

Obviously the photomode pics will look close, since FM4 uses much more detailed assets for that mode. But the graphical gap will be in the gameplay.
Although, saying that, I'm a bit underwhelmed with the lighting in FM5's photos.

Holy barely noticeable upgrade, Batman.
I guess the silver lining here is that Forza 2 also looked like shite and released early in the 360's life?
[edit] They look like they could be exactly the same car models?
yes, but its not like f4 looked like shit
anyways, I am 100% sure that the jump alone to a clear resolution is substantial on its own.
new physics and laser scanned tracks are the cherries on top.
cant wait for the racing guys (vvv etc) and blim's coverage
I'm a little surprised there hasn't been an official video yet to be honest.
Hopefully. The gameplay we've seen does look damn good and not *too* far away from these shots.

The visual upgrade between the 2 audi pictures is huge. Goddamn so happy to officially hear Spa.
I think lighting looks closer to Horizon than FM4, which is a good thing. You can also sees hat looks like AO on the car which removes some of the flat look (especially visible on 300SL fenders). For me, the best and biggest upgrade will be the full 1080p at 60 fps though. I can't wait to see some Forzavista car porn on my TV
They're not.

A little off topic but do we know what kind of wheels work with the Xbox One?
I was going to point out that I can see the polygon edges around the headlight rim on the Merc in the F5 shot but not the F4 one, but it felt too much like twisting the knife.

Photomode and autoivista have much more detailed cars than in-game. It is not like GT5 where they just add tons of AA in photomode.

yea...ermmm. i think FM4's looks slightly better here
The 300 SL is probably the same model, slightly reworked. From the beginning, I've noticed that the cars are less "smooth" than the highest LOD of FM4, we seem to be able to see more polygon edges, kinda like GT5 Premium which didn't have any sort of tesselation (they're fixing it in GT6 thankfully). Wonder why that's the case.
Audi is all new since it's not even the same car which wasn't in any previous Forza.
Autovista, yes. Photomode, no.

The ultimate test will be when we see an F40.
Yes, I barely played with the F40 in FM3, FM4 and Horizon, GT5 just spoiled me in F40 goodness... :-/
I hope we have a nice Ferrari media blowout like they did in FM3, that way they can announce they finally added the 1962 250 GTO in !! Right Helios ?!

Monte Carlo? Spa is definitely awesome tho.

Nah, only reason why we see poly edges is FM5 pic is much higher res and especially the rendering issue with the specular.
It looks like those speculars you'd see back in dreamcast days, what happened to smooth specular ??? that stuff around the headlights looks bad.
This doesn't even look like the same game as the old pics' to be honest...

The toon shading/lighting is still there. Nasty...
