Is FM4 actually going to tell you what engine something has? FM3 only said displacement, and without looking it up I had no idea what most Ferraris for example, had in them.

^That pic looks a little weird, the exhaust looks fake.
I was thinking the same thing. There are some strange things going on with the pics. Some have terrible looking wheels, some have great looking wheels, some have terrible looking exhaust. Its just not consistent at all. :scared:
 
I wish people would turn that nasty music off when they record videos.
I agree 100%. I want to hear the cars, the engines, and the tires, not the music. In fact the music is the very very first thing I turn off in a racing game.
 
Looking at those gameplay video's im struggling to see much improvement graphics wise, dont get me wrong defo slight improvement but has turn 10 been feeding us bullshots yet again as so far i'd say it has looked better than GT5 but those vids seem to show that it's still no where near as good looking?

1) I wouldn't base my opinion of graphics on YouTube video's as there are about a million things that can make it look crappy.

2) A majority of pics in the last week are from people who have the game, not T10.
 
Nurburgring is up on the site.

No full 24hr layout. Although that woudn't really have made sense without night racing.
Then, correct me if I'm wrong, but why does Polyphony have a day-time option right next to the Day/Weather variant? :odd:
I bet you that The Behemoth will be DLC, that way it can rest in the HDD instead of on disc... plus get some money from Ring freaks....basically a lot of people. Im starting to see a trend here that all "on disc" tracks are small so they can fit on disc 1 and just have the bigger ones or parts that are missing from tracks (bugatti circuit) can be later offered as DLC.... but then again I just might be conspiracy theorizing, lol....bet you is just that
I bet it won't unfortunately.

I remember folks asking T10 during the release of the GP circuit for FM3, why there wasn't a Behemoth version. And if I remember, it was because of the way both tracks were created & that if they were connected, the obvious differences would come out. And now in FM4, since the GP circuit has been modeled even further for accuracy & the 'Ring hasn't (probably just a polished up port over, tbh), I'm guessing the developers will have a similar answer for, "Why no Behemoth version?"

Can someone please fix the youtube links? I don't know how to post them that they'r displayed here correctly. Thank you!
There's a great little example of the AI in the video. Right as he comes back down & crashes, you can see the Lotus make an abrupt turn to escape it. The X5M makes it barely, but you can see it recognize the Lotus leaving no room to pass when it tries to take the inside. 👍

Nice one, guess we'l have the demo soon enough. Do we know what cars and tracks are on the demo? Is it just the E3 demo were getting?
 
Word has it that it's been spotted at a few Best Buy stores
.
T.O don't tell me that man I will hit every BB around me. :lol: Matter fact I might go to my Game Stop because they had the GT5 demo and I took pictures and videos.

From my understanding, the ONLY part that was said to look better than GT5 was the Autovista, and it does indeed look better than GT5. But only in Autovista....

Like others have said before youtube vids will give no justice to what is reality. I know one thing the youtube vids DOES however convey is how IBL is letting them "open" up the tracks more by letting them get rid of trees and rocks and such that are in the way. My theory on why this is because they had to cleverly keep the the action on the screen to a minimum. Cleverly placed trees and mountain faces (and other objects) can help keep the action on the screen low while not really keep it low if you know what I mean. But it seems the IBL may free up some CPU power allowing them to open up the tracks as they have really intended them to be.
 
Or tell us the name of the engine when swapping.
Instead of 94 Toyota Supra
I'd like to see 2JZ-GTE
or SR20DET

Did they remove that in Forza 4?. it was in Forza 3. I remember doing an engine and drivetrain swap for the Civic vti. it said F20C which was the S2000 engine.
