Looks like the DoF has been downgraded? There's a noticeable halo around the car in 1.06, almost like Driveclub's DoF, but in 1.05 it looks natural.
They've also done something odd to the specular and/or fresnel because the car's reflections look weirdly brighter now.
Could be a different part of the track with less surrounding detail?

wow...GT might be back man...
Interesting to see what the sales look like after the holiday rush.

Yeah the whole car is in focus on the comparison shot anyway

Yep which is why Forza 6 FOV is really low.
Helps keep a more stable performance less to render

I also feel like there won't be FOV options, why else would it not have been in the same patch as seat positions, butthe reasoning with "more to render" is dumb in my opinion, if they can pull off rain and night races with so many headlights, they can offer FOV options as well, if the framerate has some mini drops with extreme FOVs, then the player can decide if it's not worth it. Judging by other racing games(including GT5/6), the impact of different FOVs is minimal and shouldn't be noticable in races without a lot of cars rendered during the day without rain.
I'm not taking excuses anymore in simulation games that I want to player from the first person perspective.
You should reconsider your platform of choice then, because consoles have limited resources on disposal and some things must be prioritised over another.

Assetto Corsa, Project CARS, DiRT Rally have FOV options on PS4 and GT5 and GT6 had FOV options too. I played GT6 on 720p for a better framerate, I'd be totally ok with some lower graphics settings or minor framerate drops to get to the FOV I'm used to in other racing sims.

The cars are basically equidistant in the shots I quoted though.

I love the "winking" for the headlights.

Yeah, the tone is certainly changing with every update. I just want them to up the car count a bit 200's hopefully and add more production cars, and of course, offer us single player newbs a bone before throwing us into online races with you guys lol...More updates happen and more I think it will be a great game
In the general sense, I wish more racers allowed you to disable the arms in cockpit mode.
200 distinct cars is like exactly the point I love sims to be at. More is neat and all, but with half-decent curation, 200 is pleeeeenty.

I love the cockpit view adjustments but they do look a bit limited - as in, not much difference or do I have this wrong?
I'm pretty sure they added a few more like, today.

Yup, even a casual like me that basically played to win all the tournaments against the CPU and collet my favorite cars, I never went over 60-70 cars in my garage. Gets too overwhelming after that.
Though I still do like the RPG element of earning a bunch of credits and stuff like that, hopefully some of that makes it though. Can't wait for E3 and some updates on this one.
That difference in a single scene. The track marshalls look almost real, meanwhile that embarrassing last-gen grass... I mean come on, that's a solved problem. I've seen much older racing games with proper grass.

😳 *speechless*
I beg to differ that's a solved problem in a 60fps racer on console...
TheAdmiester

Yeah, pretty much every 60fps console racer is on par with shitty grass problems.
The thing is though, in GT's defence, you're meant to be going past the trackside assets at high speed in any game. Grass occupies such little screen space and you won't really have time to look at it, whereas marshals are more noticeable and actually serve a gameplay purpose.

God fucking dammit the images in these last two pages, sweet update!
Now, who do I have to kill/blow to get a frigging beta code???
Seriously(((

The update being 17gb makes me think that there's still stuff people haven't found or things we'll see in the coming days when course rotation starts. That seems way too big for additional sound improvement, trackside upgrades, options etc. The last update was smaller and that came with new tracks.

Insanely good looking, best looking racer by far.
The painting of the two bikes on that house right next to the track doesn't exist anymore, the owner renovated it a couple of months ago and the wall is now completely brown.
What the fuck is this shit, Kaz? PRE-ORDER CANCELLED.
i noticed it, too.

Damn, wish we could see a pits top in the beta but that might be for the full game.

would like to see how they implement it with tyre wear or mech damage if they bring those in the beta.
Love all these new shots!

Still no code for me.
Going back to my dark corner to sob :-(
Love the lighting in some of these shots! Do we have any idea when the game launches?

Not weirdly.
It's reflecting the sky in the update, and, since the sky is a lot brighter than the grass, the reflections appear accurate.
Maybe 1.05 version has trees in the shadows blocking the sky, which means 1.06 has worse draw distance on cube maps (trees aren't showing and we see the sky behind them) but I wouldn't know without seeing that part of the track, which I can't because I wasn't allowed in the f****** beta
Edit: forget it, it's just the sky being a lot brighter. Maybe proper HDRi skydome.
Also that 'halo' could be some sort of bloom coming from the brighter reflection.
Edit: pretty sure that's what it is
GAF pls.
Nothing offline. The only way to practice is the qualifying runs for the specific races. If nothing's listed for you, you'll have to wait.

Nice ! I see much less aliasing ! This is on PS4 Pro or classic ?

Whatever additional AA coverage they seem to be using seems to apply to the standard and Pro models. The game is definitely cleaner than it was before.
