Forza 6 announced

Given it's 1080p/60 I don't believe the graphics are poor given the hardware available. Looks lovely on my Plasma.

Tracks - most of the full roster are real world and have been laser scanned. Blame real world geography. Sebring is flat as a pancake as it's an airport. Abu Dhabi is in the desert. Lime Rock has some hills, even if T10 have smoothed out all the bumps. (Seriously try it on iRacing, it'll shatter your spine!).

There's plenty of tracks in the full game with significant elevation changes - Spa, 'Ring, Bathurst and Sedona just off the top of my head.

If you want the wow factor and new shiny then go find the latest from EA.
 
Crikey how bloody long does this demo take to install?? Started the install about half and hr ago and it's sat at 32% lol.

So damn slow :(
 
First Forza game I'm considering not getting, at least not at release.

Played the demo and something just doesn't feel right to me, cars feel like massive, heavy, unstable boxes, messed around with all assists too. Did a B2B with Forza 5 and the difference seemed massive in handling, the amount of braking it feels is required to get round even the slightest corner seems excessive. F5 in comparison felt "right".

Even though it's a limited demo, I get the feeling it will be pretty dull and drab in terms of SP yet again, with a tedious progression structure (basing this on the "Volumes" i.e. race series divisions it shows off).

I may still give it a chance but I think I've been spilt with the likes of Driveclub and Horizon 2 which are how console racers should be IMO. Also there is plenty of other stuff coming out which will hold my interest more than this.
 
I have ordered the normal edition. Turn 10 can take a run and jump if they think another £40 for 50 more cars is good value. If I cannot find something out the 450 available I will give up......

These pre-order packs are getting stupid now tbh.....
 
Yeah, you're probably right. I keep trying to justify the £82 one for the early access. VIP and the car packs etc will appear later.

Any advantage to going digital over say a boxed copy?
 
Played the demo and though wow Jaggies. they seem worse than in Forza 5. Also didnt think it was a major step up from Forza 5 graphics to behonest.

Yeah one very convenient advantage. Not having to swap disks with another one of your favourite games (whatever it may be).

What currency? I'd assumed the edition based on $US, but evidently not. You don't have a location specified...

Australian dollars, but it was more the price difference that I was getting at. If it was all digital it'd just be AU$26 between basic and deluxe, but since the basic is available as hard copy for just AU$80 its seems bit much to pay that much extra, and I'd quite like the hard copy. Like you, I'm mostly digital now, but I generally get Forza physically.

I thought the same as Raven tbh, it's one of the first things I noticed. I'm not sure if it's because I've been playing Pcars on the PS4 (which is very impressive) but this seemed very blocky to me just doesn't feel 1080p.. I'll have to play Forza 5 tonight to compare.
 
is there a cut off date for claiming old forza credit to use in new game?

car collector bonus.

edit - just made 300 cars in Forza 4 - hope the CCB is still live.

You just need them showing correctly in the Forza hub app/rewards page before you first boot FM6, same with the Tier rewards.

Uninstall just the main game, then install it again and it will preload.

I started mine this evening, only currently at 28%. downloads have been really slow lately...
