Forza Motorsport Preview: Once more around the track

"I did enjoy myself with assists on, penalties at low and not a care in the world; I flew around the race track, trading paint with enemies and taking corners at speeds no one in the real world would even consider," Steve writes in his Forza Motorsport preview.

Looks like RT during gameplay and has FOV slider or being able to adjust FOV on console! Nice!!!

'racing game of the generation' ... they literally never learn about overhyping

 

[Entropi]

All in all it’s shaping up really nice. Best racing sim? Nah

 

[VillaiN]

Half the tracks of gt, by every comparision online majority of car models looks generatiom behind gt and look at these previews. Just lol. And no vr. I still think it ll be worst reviewed forza in years, but lets see. Maybe im wrong.

Edit. Stevior, windows, purexbox...usual suspects.

 

[AllBizness]

Hard to be racing game of the gen with no VR and I doubt this game holds 60fps with ray tracing on Series X

I do think overall GT7 still looks the better of the two games, especially WRT car models but also lighting and color palette & temperature. Something about Forza when it comes to lighting and color just seems a tad less realistic than GT, and it's been that way for years. Mainly artistic choices, I'd reckon.

That said, Forza has the better chase cam; GT's is too rigid and locked IMO, they should go back to how GT3 did it, which was great.

Looks arcady as fuck and really nothing impressive compared to GT7. Check their first initial trailer and screenshots. This looks nothing like that. Lighting, car models, even enviroments arent that impressive. The in-game RT isn't even in the same level op reflection as GT7 already has.

Nobody drives like that in these games.

No ray tracing in the 4k 60fps mode only the 30fps mode ... I'll take the higher framerate in a racing game over ray tracing any day

This point was brutal by super gt

Doesn't feel like a huge step up from FM7 given the 6 year gap

Remember "Built up from the ground up"

 

[FatKaz]

That will ruffle a few feathers.

 

[Johnic]

That will ruffle a few feathers.

And zero upvotes. Those people need a new source of copium since every game their overlords give them is lacking.

Zero interest in this but I do like Horizon, so I'll wait for that.

Pretty sure there was loads of frame drops as well

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

I smell 7/10
That should teach them a lesson.

 

[JAHGamer]

No VR or 120fps mode makes it obsolete already. Idk why Microsoft even bothered trying.

 

[Darth Vader]

That will ruffle a few feathers.

GT is probably the best simcade out there. Forza Motorsport handling was always floaty as hell and very arcady.

 

[FatKaz]

And the truth shall set you free

And the truth shall set you free

Imagine telling an actual race driver and racing sim player that you'll wait for digital foundry

Xbots really are part of a cult, I can't stress that enough
