It's just plain cheeky. Yet they know people will find out and they ain't bothered.

Polygon pack too. The first building has a totally flat face apart from the six extruded windows while the third building is very different. The road sign forbidding motor vehicles (ironic ^^) is also moved to the building. Conditions are slightly different, but it doesn't explain why the lightning is so ugly.
Am I the only one getting reversed stereo? IGN's issue, but it sort of fits with the mirrors reflecting the other side through the car

For those of you who were thinking of downloading rather than buying a disk - looks like there is a Digital Deluxe Edition including VIP membership.

Considering the further-away parts of the building have the appropriately higher detail, I'd say it's safe to assume it's a LoD error. Also, it looks like an LoD error.

Wayne Brady joke was too much?
Also i would trust my friends much less than most other people in that respect. But at least ill be able to curse and swear when one of them runs me off the road and then have a really amusing water cooler story to tell them next time we meet up.

those are also A LOT less detailed than the older picture.
Currently stalking all gamertags i can get from Forza drivatars looking for uploaded clips.
So far, only found the ones suggested by Fistexe; short replay clips from Alps and the user quickly switches to custom cameras (which are the same ugly fixed-to-car ones as seen in FM4)
The overhead shot of cars entering the tunnel seen in the McLaren vidoc is indeed in the game.
Are we looking at the same thing? The farther away parts also lack detail. There's also a completely different shadow map for the building in the top pic.
nice vids
even the semi-lousy driving was interesting to watch, for getting a taste of how collision and damage work
now, come to me you sexy little whore, forza, and I will fill all your holes with dollar bills just like you want me to 8)

Looks like the direct feed from Machinima.
Original reveal gameplay. Machinima had a 720p Direct Feed loop of it.
This post:
You can see it around 3:57 in this video.
Edit: My bad, 6:20 seems to be when that picture was taken. The scene is also seen in 1:46, 8:30 and 10:55 if you want a closer look (it's right after the insane bloom over the bridge).
If you look at the closer building in that shot, it has less detail than the even further-away building in the same scene.

There's some funny pop-in on a few videos, the crowd at Catalunya and Indianapolis for example.
Could be a streaming issue.

Sorry if this has been discussed before but did Turn 10 say they remade Catalunya from scratch? The track detail is a lot better, and it looks great, but the actual track seems to be the exact same as it is in Forza 4.
I like Catalunya in FM4, but I wish they had given Hockenheim and Tsukuba similar treatments.

It's a streaming issue, for whatever reason. Just been watching some Prague clips via the Smart Glass app and all building detail is there.
What is annoying, though, is that towards the latter half of the circuit where the greenery is, the car reflects buildings that aren't there >_>

lmao, I actually hate that. I noticed on one of the cars in the recent footage that there was reflective material inside the car that reflected the track around it rather than the interior. I totally understand *why* it happens technologically, but I definitely noticed it.

What's the day today? Tuesday?..... Then no, it has not been laser scanned.
But seriously, some tracks look like they've been fully laser scanned (Silverstone, Spa, Mt Panorama), others look like they've had only a spit and polish ( Road Atlanta Laguna Seca). Which makes the exclusion of some of the later tracks all the more curious/infuriating/damning.

Just spent the last hour checking out the SmartGlass app. Pretty slick. There's already a healthy selection of Forza game clips on there, and I can't wait to see what epic, unfortunate, and downright hilarious moments will be captured for posterity. Like, oh I don't know, when SarBear's live-axled, rattletrap heap of a MUSTANG shits the bed on the tricky cambers of Mount Panorama and he gets a mouthful of Armco.
One other thing: the game may not be out for another couple of days, but I'd already be perfectly happy to never see another Dubai-spec gold-chromed car ever again. Having custom liveries on AI cars is great in principle, but in practice can never account for some people's, shall we say questionable, tastes. I was relieved to see an option to turn off drivatar liveries; keep the Spongebob/Rockstar/Animu garbage off my lawn and out of my Forza, thanks.
I'm so sorry man, these cheap shots are all I have.

I just did the same thing, and it's really cool plus some new videos.
"As you improve, so will the competition, with matches that continually evolve along with your racing prowess. Competitive Multiplayer requires an Xbox Live Gold Membership. Join Xbox Live Gold or get"
I did catch this on the app too, which makes me think that the true skill will make a return for multiplayer.
I tried posting this on the BS Forza forums (I don't know why I go there), but I was apparently moderated for the post.. The mods are complete ass over there. End rant. Won't post there again.
I want this on the back of the danged box, lol

Up until now, the dweebs and mouthbreathers would paint that nonsense, sure, but I could deal with it because they ran in online circles that no enticement could compel me to join. Seeing the comedy cars invade and defile the sanctity of single-player races, though, was too much. Damn nearly gave me a stroke, I shit you not.

Uhhhh... Looks good to me. Those screens are below youtube quality anyway, and how old is that build? Because the gameplay I've seen looks great.
So I am guessing you have only ever seen launch games on consoles and have somehow been in comas for the rest of each console generation?
Yeah, for a PC game this is as good as it gets. But make no mistake that much optimization will be done for future games, this is a console we are talking about after all. Forza 6 will make 5 look lame, that you can count on.
And before you argue about it, take a look at launch PS3 games and compare them to the last of us. Take a look at what a high end PC could do in 2007 (around the time of the PS3 launch) and then take another look at the last of us. Consoles always perform much better than PCs do spec for spec. Much better.

If I search for fm5, then go to game progresses/progression (not sure what it's called in English)tab, scroll down, that's where clips are, for some reason.
But I keep seeing the same 4/5 ones there.
I have to check random gamertags to find more clips, but I'm sure that's not how it's done?
Spaceman Spiff

At the bottom of the game progress tab, (where the clips you're seeing are), you'll see an icon with 3 dots at the bottom right of the screen. Double-tap that to bring up your individual progress tab. Scroll all the way to the right to the game clips tab and tap the "see community clips" link. There's quite a few in there.

exactly what I do but there's just 5 clips for me. I guess Its probably region based

Huh, that's a bummer. There are around 30+ that I can see, with more being added fairly regularly. You're honestly not missing much; most of them are rollovers, 3-second snippets of passes on the AI, or lingering shots of the menu.

Okay okay okay... why are people pissed about the car list in that pack? Is it because we were told that every car would be modeled from scratch and assuming that because every car in that pack was in FM4 or Horizon, that they're likely to be the same models?
Just want to make sure I'm on the same page here.

short SPA replay footage
mind you, it's a camera recording of a tablet screen...
still enough to see that camera angles are still the same style as previous Forzas.
The closeup on the grass is especially helpful.

It's good to hear that liveries by Saladine Dali wannabes can be totally disabled (I can't imagine anyone will leave this feature activated after their third race against wooden Lambos) but Turn 10 are missing a huge trick here. We really should be able to dress cars in liveries from our own library and race against those.
lol. At least Spa looks good, besides the weird overdone god rays.

downloading liveries and assigning them to every car ?
it sounds boring and time consuming. I couldn't even be arsed to pick cars for each AI driver in custom race, let alone color and nevermind livery.
Or you mean automatically use liveries you have stored ? but you would have to download liveries for every car.
I can't see anyone using that feature.
What they could do is use higher rated liveries
Well, in FM2, FM3 and FM4 I had race replica liveries (often more than one) for all of the many cars that I regularly drove. It took seconds to download and apply them from the storefront. I'd have loved it if the game then automatically assigned that livery to an AI car I was racing against. It looked daft when my car was the only one with a race livery on it and all the other cars had standard paint jobs.
