Am i the only one that wants these pixel cars & tracks in the game?

Now THIS is how you do a commercial for a game!
Forza 6 TV Commercial

Ok that was awesome. Wish the game was as lively as this commercial. But yeah they should do a pixel mode or DC should do it.

 

[shandy706]

All of those image links are broken for me, shandy706.

Can anyone else see them?

I can see them fine.

Ditto. You can see them because you are logged into a private address.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

I dont't know but this game looks dull. I mean I've played Driveclub...

Your not alone, as I said earlier I found the game lifeless

It is, because the lack of postprocess

Forza has always been sterile really.

Wish the game was as lively as this commercial.

I dont't know but this game looks dull. I mean I've played Driveclub very much and now I tried this demo. I have to say that there is no "wow" feeling with this game.

Maybe I 'm a graphics whore, sorry.

Not sure why people are comparing games still at this point in the thread..

I've enjoyed forza since the first one. It's just that it's been sterile in presentation and the environments. The new rainy stuff is great though.

Stuff like awful music is one thing, but the cockpit/helmet cams in pcars are more exciting and gives a better sense of speed.

I damn near cried watching that. Too funny.

That made me miss the Furai even more seeing it in that clip. That rotary engine noise combined with what felt like infinite grip.. I need that back in my life.

I know there's not even a functional Furai in existence anymore but I still hope we get it as a DLC car at some point. It's #1 on my wish list.

Not a fan of the music either, but I turn it off anyway. At any rate, sterile in this sense is evocative in an unflattering way.

If I try to follow your links (goo.gl) I just get a 'Log into your outlook account here' page.

Can't see any of your pics btw, neither here nor in the other topic discussing the commercial.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Eastx just referred to Forza 6 as sterile in his stream... I hate you all...

 

[soundscream]

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.

Ah my Daft Punk Camero, I miss my Forza 3 & 4 liveries all that work lost :'(

And where art thou cjelly?

I tried direct link from One Drive and google short links.

I'd use abload like usual, but uploads are screwed up on their site right now for some reason...takes forever to upload multiple images...gets hung.

Any suggestions? I quit using minus and I'm not touching hosting sites that compress the images.

Could try Flickr, doesn't compress and 1TB storage.

Watching Eastx's stream, Prague looks great.

I generally prefer real-word tracks, but I Iove Prague and am really digging Rio de Janeiro.

Forza 6 should have been open world.

 

[Doukou]

I'm sorry if this has been talked about but is there a VIP discount like there was for FH2 for a previous VIP owner?

 

[BIGT468]

Games not out yet but the shit talking has already begun. Besides I was always second last. Soundscream was always last.

Sorry living in americas hat automatically drops you down 2 places in the finishing order.

Is "Simulation" steering for wheel use or has anyone gotten use to using this setting on a controller?

 

[Grassy]

ForzaGAF - Nurb GT

That was NOT me in the dark blue Nissan R390....omg I'm in tears.

So about the demo. The AWD cars feel much better now, especially the 22B which doesn't feel as "planted" as it did in Forza 5. It feels a lot more lively as it should do.
Interestingly, in the Forza 6 demo it's tuned to C499(stock in Forza 6 it's C459), but if you compare the performance stats in the tuning menu, the numbers are extremely close to the Forza 5 stock 22B's performance numbers at C460. Other than Braking Distances which are longer, and Lateral G's which are slightly worse in Forza 6.

Nice that they've fixed the 22B model as well, the tail lights are much better, the headlights look better too. Proportions are much better, hopefully that's the same for a few of the other cars ie: R32 GT-R Skyline.

5 days to go, hyped!

Is "Simulation" steering for wheel use or has anyone gotten use to using this setting on a controller?

I've been using sim-steering on gamepad since Forza 4. It feels good to me and I can set some pretty quick times so I've stuck with it.

I use the normal setting with all assists (apart from ABS because that's standard on cars these days) and it seems to feel more natural with the controller than the simulation setting.

Yeah, I'm actually quicker with a controller using it.

That commercial was, hands down, the best video game commercial I have seen, ever.

In all my decades of gaming, I never seen anything remotely as good.

This is how it's done people, bravo T10

 

[Fahzgoolin]

Confused why people think this game is sterile. It's a simulation racing game with a ton of features, cool AI, beautiful graphics, and good online play.

I think people who are looking for a Forza Horizon experience might wanna stick with Forza Horizon.

This 100%, you know what you are getting with the Forza Motorsport series.

It's just a shame they still use prebaked lighting and no dynamic weather, but I suppose that's the pay off for a locked 60fps.

 

[fozzy]

Is it just the early access that is the difference between the deluxe and ultimate editions?

I bought the ultimate thinking it was more cars. I'm on holiday when it releases.

Not just early access. Its the car pass that makes the difference between deluxe and ultimate. Early Access is just the icing on the cake! I believe its 42 cars over 6 car packs over 6 months till March next year, but don't quote me on that.

Oh that's a relief!

I find the sterile comments a bit weird as well. The demo felt the most lively Forza has ever been.

Just thinking out loud about dynamic weather.....

There are other technical reasons behind why it isn't there I think, you've got to factor in the systems required for the player actually handling dynamic weather, you've got to program different sets of tyres (slicks, inters, wets, and I wonder how the wet and dry tyre physics are actually modeled in FM6.....) and you've also got to communicate these things to the player, and make it possible that the player is both informed out the conditions, and able to change tyres at will.

Anyone who's played PCars will know that this isn't actually that easy to do, and probably for simplicity sake, and for streamlining the experience for the player, having the races either dry, or wet, make it a much easier proposition.

There's no excuse for no dynamic TOD though

 

[Mascot]

I find the sterile comments a bit weird as well. The demo felt the most lively Forza has ever been.

The wet environments somehow make the dry and night ones look... I don't know... less active somehow (if that makes sense). The 'sterile' comments that have followed FM for years are probably down to the lighting, which looks so much better on the wet tracks now.

Sebring in the rain is sooo good....

It makes me want to only race in the wet because of the interesting dynamics it presents.

After watching a bunch of videos of the full game, it has to be said that the UI and menus really are absolutely gorgeous. Love the new font, too. Everything looks so slick, polished, and intuitive to navigate. Bravo, Turn 10. Top-notch graphic design and overall presentation.

Looks great but come on, Turn 10. Don't populate a GT grid with road cars. That's just daft.

And please either add the option to remove the hands and steering wheel from cockpit view, or for the love of God have full 1:1 visual steering wheel rotation. It totally shatters the immersion. I really, really assumed that this would finally be fixed in FM6.

 

[Admodieus]

Not a huge racing great guy but I downloaded the demo last night and had a blast. The Indy Car event was awesome, and the last race with the rain was a real increase in difficulty. I think I'm more of a Horizon guy though, really hope the weather effects make it into FH3.

 

[soundscream]

Watched these last night, new guy doesn't seem that enthusiatic.

I think that's just his personality. I've watched a few videos with him over the last few weeks and he seems very monotone. But he seemed to enjoy the Indy car on Rio a lot.
