Very cool.
Oh man, sort by not owned. VERY nice. And that new car browser is fantastic.
I really wish they would update the customization. It is getting stale and outdated these days.
Changing homespaces is back, nice.
Let's also hope that it's faster to buy cars this time around, it took forever, especially on H2 lol
Drivatars are way too realistic now.
Have you seen the ForzaGAF Indy clips people have posted in this thread? lol

Great trailer, made me smile. Remember being wowed by every leap in coin-op racing games visuals. The genre always led the way.
Except Cruisin' games, they're fucking shit!

It really is a fun time with a lot of laughs. I swear some of us, not me, are really good drivers. And yet we've had some bangers.

*watches it* Yup, this is the famous one. Whatever happened to CJelly? Haven't seen him post much since then. lol
And my awesome Volvo! Man, they need to bring that car back.

Right OK so I saw this as well when doing rival races, and the time to beat was like 5 hours or something mental. Surely this is a mistake and there isn't people out there constantly driving around backwards!?

I am pretty sure I know what caused it. If you turn around and go backwards during those Rival races, you can basically race for as long as you want. Since they are set up to stop you after one lap, some people probably just run it around in reverse so they can drive for as long as they want.
When you do your very first rival race, you basically are at the bottom of the scoreboard. So when it picks a ghost for you to race, it picks something toward the bottom and probably from your friends.
So what that means is the very first time you go to race in the rivals event, it might pick a ghost of your friend whose time is crazy long because all they do is race it backwards.
That is my guess anyway,.

I don't have the XBone yet, but when I'll buy it I'd like to have some of you guys in my friendlist for rivals/drivatar purpose, I already have my gamertag though: DivineRage002
You guys go ahead and send a friend request, I'll accept them all when I get my console.

Forza 5 put me to sleep with the long load times paired with the boring music.
We are doing a live stream with the final version of FM6 (with limitations on what we can show though):

After playing the demo quite a lot I've cancelled my day one edition pre order. Bought the Ultimate edition instead
About the whole graphics argument, my friend came round yesterday and I gave her a a go at my Thrustmaster Non-FF Racing Wheel on the demo, which she found fine, but she ain't into racers.
However, when I showed her Sebring in the Rain, she was like "It looks so realistic" in which I replied "Really? People online complain the graphics could be better and other games look better."...
...she replied "You gamers complain too much. I played Black and White 1 for ages...and this looks much better."
So really, to the outside world, the graphics look fine and we should maybe stop acting like the game looks like ass.
Loved the trailer btw. Made me remember some old racers.

I want an entire game of that. That can be the third Forza franchise. They can collaborate with a couple of classic IP holders per version.

The thing is, i have been playing & loving racing games (all games) for thirty odd years & over time the graphics have improved & (i don't really want to start this off but) game-play is king, as good as the Gran Turismo series is, the first GT will always be the best one to me, OutRun 2 Coast to Coast was a hoot to play, RaceDriver: GRID was excellent, i have played all the Forza games & i really do prefer them to Gran Turismo, i had Pcars & traded it in as i just wasn't enjoying it, yes it is a very good game but i didn't enjoy playing it, the same for DriveClub it looks fantastic but i don't enjoy the racing, but the Forza games i cannot get enough of, to me the Forza games are like Top Gear, i want to go round the corners sideways & cross the finish line backwards with my hair on fire shouting MORE POWER!!
As for the people complaining about the Rio track in the demo for "being too colourful! what the hell are you on about, it is supposed to be fun, that is what it is all about, Forza has never been about tinkering to the nth degree, it has been about racing.
As for the old racers in the trailer, i would love some of them as tracks in future DLC.

I'd love that one from Pole Position II.
Fucking Suzuka.
Liked the Chase HQ bit in the advert, good old days.

Well finally bit the bullet and pre ordered, not really into DLC but that early access was to much to pass up. Ultimate Edition is a go.

Forza has always been sterile really. It's a great game, but stuff like NFS Shift beat it in presentation years ago in my opinion.
