Gamescom 2011 : Parlons de Forza 4 avec Dan Greenawalt
My little interview with Dan Greenawalt ended a few minutes and then I come back to you to share the highlights. For the record, I dug up a plan of hell to be quiet: a press room to myself ... there are indeed two press centers in Gamescom, but this close to the main entrance is obviously busy, wired connections are under attack and struggling to keep WiFi. The other is strangely empty, which allows me to do my review in silent wonder. I stop to tell my life, you are certainly more interested in my meeting with Dan. Know that I threatened and told that you torture me if I did not get all the answers, but he was ruthless ...
Forza Motorsport 4 offer he races at night? No communication is over for now Dan Greenawalt told me. However, the races will have lighting conditions pre-established, it will be possible to run in the morning, in full afternoon or dusk, as we have discovered the screenshots of the Hockenheim circuit. However, these conditions are not dynamic, thus understand they will not change in the race. Exit therefore hopes for day / night cycles for the endurance races.
I immediately diverted to the weather, but I had to answer simple, if they were to be four variables in Forza Motorsport, they would be in any case not being tested. As for the rain, I tried to cheat by asking if there would be various types of gum, including rain tires, but if Dan has confirmed that there would actually several types of gum, he immediately added that He would not release at this time on the weather.
As for the tires, it will not explode, but you can wear them threadbare.
As levels of players also since it will no longer 50, but 150 levels to pass. Turn 10 has indeed seen his copy, and drew on data from the multiplayer mode to establish a new scale of progression. According to Dan, to reach level 150, it would take 18 months so intense. Nothing was said, however, on what these levels would bring more.
When I asked if it would be possible to paint the windows of cars for Forza 4, I was told that the mode of painting new album is very similar to the previous ... Dan still has confirmed that players could import the layer groups realized in the third part to put on cars, 4. Finally, there will always be impossible to use graphics from a PC for use in the game short, all this may well look like Forza 3, as the management of pit stops.
As for the presence or absence of Porsche, you can not learn, the development studio did not want to communicate on the subject for now. There is always some hope, although I admit it hard to understand why Turn 10 would like to keep the mystery. After all, he'll have to tell us one day. Discussions are perhaps still ongoing with the current holder of the license?
Here's what I learned. You should know that our time was short and Dan tried to do the same format as the videos you've ever seen. You can imagine that I took advantage of any opening to put a question. I did not get to interview face to face. Anyway, I certainly had exactly the same answers. Anyway, it made me severely pleasure of meeting him, I even got to shake his hand! Now, I rush to Microsoft event this evening, hoping to glean a few more juicy info!
