Help. I can't play the demo, each time I boot it up the game refuses to respond to my input. The only button that works is the guide button, and every other button works fine in the dashboard and all my other games but they refuse to work in the FM6 demo.
I've tried 2 controllers, 2 different languages/locale settings on the console, full reboot, redownloaded the demo, but nothing works. Everytime I boot the demo it simply gets stuck at, what I guess is, the main menu.

You do raise a good point.

I'm seeing this too in all my forza games, I think the forza servers are just overwhelmed and the game seems to force an online check when it starts and won't go past it. Even http://forzamotorsport.net/ isn't coming up for me and I have been checking it every day to track my rewards progress.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you!
The only racing game I could properly play to the end was Dirt 2 because of the rewind feature. I played some others without but I just couldn't complete the story modes at the end.
I always thought Forza looked amazing and wanted to play it so badly, but I figured it would be pointless to buy a game I couldn't complete anyway.. The realistic look about it, I figured there was no way it would have such a feature.
Your post just made my day, I'll check out Horizon 2 too, thanks again!
I'm glad I helped! And enjoy, cause Forza is awesome!

Whoaaa, just unplugged the ethernet cable, rebooted the demo and it worked instantly.
Forced online check-in is massive bullshit for a game that is playable offline. Thanks for the heads-up

It would be interesting if Forza 6 had an option to run at 30fps or lower resolution with higher AA or other effects. Imagine running this sucker at 4K or at 1080p with perfect image quality? it would be glorious. I can't wait for this game though, I've been waiting get back into Forza and I think this year is it, downloading the demo now.
Edit: Just booted the demo up. Once you get past the lack of anti-aliasing, this game is gorgeous. There were some very nice open vistas at almost every other corner, and the tracks seem to be packed with detail.
It really looks fantastic to me in game, especially when you approach a scenary wich so many brilliant colours ¯\_(ツ
_/¯AA is still rough, but other than that, gg wp T10

Except drivatars require the game to be online.
Also, not really a forced online check when the demo boots offline.

I'll take your word for it then
I know games always look better in real life than on in screenshots. I mean I remember playing Forza 5 round my buddies and it looked much better than on some screenshots I saw on GAF, so I guess you do have a point and you know better than me as you have the game!blue_phazon

Just had an update for the demo. Wonder what it did?
Finally got a chance to play the demo. Everything about it felt awesome. Racing in the rain was the first time I felt weather was really a threat while driving in a game and not just a cosmetic thing with a little slipperiness added on. Cool stuff.
I like the music better too. Less car dealership stuff and a little more intense.

It's in the cloud.......no really. It's safe to delete.
So much fun... driviing in the opposite direction. The Mayhem..
Ford GT in Rio in the opposite direction

Played at a friend - loved it. Seriously making me reconsider my no consoles this gen stance.
The environments are great, so much added detail, the rain and fog, leaves, etc. Driving felt really good.
Only thing I didn't like (really at all) was the Formula 1 car race. Actually I loved it for sense of speed....I actually really enjoyed myself laughing at the intensity and ultra speed sense...but quickly realized I could just keep trigger held and haul ass....something was broke in the physics (made it really arcade fun, but not good for forza)

Indy car not F1, and those cars have so much downforce, combined with the fact you were on an oval meant you can just hammer down on the gas.
