Forza 6 Gameplay videos

[Milouse]

Night race on Spa with 24 cars (AI).

Note 1: the video is on Spa at Night because it is one of the few scenarios allowed by the embargo around review version of the game.
Note 2: the video is 720/30, sorry for that.

This other one at Spa, with way better video quality. Same race but cockpit view in replay.

Don't know if this is the right place but Raceboy77 has the full game and is currently streaming on twitch.tv, if the stream is over by the time you get there you can go to his profile and look under past broadcasts.

 

[Milouse]

I guess this is the right place. I don't know Raceboy, but i know i'm using one of his settings...
Lotus Eleven on Spa, with fully functionnal long range headlights (off on replays, so off on the previous video) :

Any vids of the E-tron?

 

[turk1993]

The lights of the speedometers are verry poorly done, like sometimes it looks like they don't have a backlight.

@turk1993 This is specific to this car i think.

I just did a test-run of Twitch on Spa at night in the eBay 125i (first time on the track at night, first time in the car), and while I'm going to have to broadcast on low quality, I can probably do another one later with the E-tron.

I apologize in advance to anybody that has to listen to me, and I apologize retroactively to the few people I saw pop up in the head-count as I drove around like a novice.

They really do stand out in a bad way. One can hope it will be fixed shortly after release.

Jeez how far back is the camera this year in cockpit cam. The Steering wheel looks much bigger than the windscreen! Is FOV adjustable for wheel users?

 

[PzR Slim]

Anyone seen this tv commercial? I think it's great. A lot of gaming memories right there!

Is it cataloged?

Twitch didn't save it, no. Did I miss a setting somewhere?

Go to your profiles settings, over to Channel & Videos tab and there is an option called automatically archive my broadcasts, this box must be ticked. I believe this keeps any broadcast you do for 30 days (60 if you have Twitch Turbo).

Might be easier to reach the settings through a PC than the Xbox.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Heh, as I got the notification for your post @Im_Lukas, I had just found that. Damn.

I think I'll fit a broadcast in in a few minutes. I can't find my ethernet cable anywhere, however, so it's going to be on fairly low quality.

 

[turk1993]

This is from a twitch stream i really hope they patch it cuz it looks really off.

Jeez, people really do complain about everything these days. Can we just appreciate for a moment that Forza 6 actually has night and rain now, I thought I'd never see the day just earlier this year. And doing both at flawless 60 fps is a stunning achievement, of course some graphical compromises have to be made when the game is running at 2-3 times the framerate compared to competition (cough cough 20 fps rain in pcars).

I'm not sure I completely understand the argument, either. The 430S was running under floor lights of Yas. The Spa comparisons are being made off twitch feeds. And the Horizon screenshot that shows it "correctly", shows far too much contrast between the orange dials & black dash, imo, for a car that's apparently at some point of the day.

My god, Rio is so fast and bumpy. Can't wait to take the Lotus F1 car out.

Don't get me wrong i understand its a hell of a achievement but its just a small detail. they need to make the cockpit lights brighter. Other than that it looks freaking amazing.

It's important to point out that your monitor is most likely calibrated differently to your television, so it's never an accurate representation of what you'll while you're playing.

I'm just getting really sick of the complaint culture on the internet that seemingly took off in the last few years. Positive comments and constructive feedback are very few and far in between as of late, and it's not just forza, it's almost every single game. Makes it very boring to read honestly, and to me interaction on the forums is sometimes as fun as playing the game itself, especially when you come across an interesting opinion that adds something meaningful to the discussion. On some forums, youtube, etc. literally 90% of the comments for Forza 6 consist of "lol driveclub looks better", I don't what these people are trying to achieve, but it just stinks.

 

[Hillcrest34]

Has anyone else noticed how the rear and brake lights at night almost don't exist?

Also it's fair to criticise the lack of cockpit lighting and FOV (especially FOV, but that's a rant saved for later) because T10 have spoken about how their cockpits are so incredibly detailed while promoting the game yet they couldn't get the dash lights right at night

Pcars doesn't run at 20fps in the rain, that's ridiculous. In the digital foundry stress tests, the X1 version ran mid to low 30s at worst in heavy rain in traffic at monaco, and that was months ago, before all the patches that brought optimisation for consoles. I would be willing to bet the game rarely, if ever, falls below 40fps at the very worst, even on X1, which had the worst performance of the 3 platforms.

The X1 version in this video rarely drops below mid 30s, and the PS4 version sits mostly in the mid 40s. Far from 20fps in the rain. I'll also add that the weather and time is dynamic in Pcars, and not fixed like in FM6. That does make a big difference.


Don't get me wrong, FM6 looks like a kick ass game, but there's really no need to make up such nonsense to try and rip on one game to make another game look better.

So, quick request, but has anyone released footage of COTA in-game? Or are these folks restricted to showcasing only certain content?

We're restricted to certain content. Can't say much more, but a stream on Sunday or Monday can sort that out if you'd like.

My god, Rio is so fast and bumpy. Can't wait to take the Lotus F1 car out.

That's a combo I tried earlier today. It's exactly what you'd expect.

As I assumed, then. That'd be great, but my Sunday & Monday plans are pretty booked, so no point in catering to my request if I won't be able to watch it. I shall wait til' release.

Forza 6 could easily be running at upwards of 70 fps behind the scenes to accommodate for fps drops and not let the user see them, so there's your 2x difference, plus 1080p is 30% more pixels than 900p, plus the tracks in PCars are incredibly poorly detailed as far as trackside detail goes, I think that Shift 2 had better detail.

Watch Insidesimracing stream from last night, they've played through all the demo tracks, COTA, Prague, Long Beach and were on their way to Brands but the time ran out.
