FM5 Thread

So far into the Twitch.tv livestream, Dan has said that FM5 will not see the storefront or Auction House.

This is where I'll be putting all the info we all find out about FM5, that way it's easy to track instead of going to the chat lounge, the xbox1 vs PS4 thread, etc.

-No nighttime, no weather.

-No dirt

-Multiple tire compounds

-Drivatar info: The game will learn your driving style and how you play the game. The AI will adapt as well. You can earn credits for your account even when you are not at home.

-Laser scanning for tracks

-Open wheel cars

-Tuning system overhaul(launch control has been confirmed)

-Completely new tire model

-New engine

-New paint additions

-McLaren and Turn 10 are working for a new aerodynamics system

No night or weather again? wow.

Yep, confirmed.

God damnit

I don't know what to say anymore. Ten years in the making and the Forza franchise has not seen proper day/night and weather.

Weather is honsetly something that is hard AF to do right.... imagine rain that has just stopped... are you just going to have a drying line that is coded for a certain time or are you going to have it track ever car with the tire temps and that will create a line? That's why the weather isn't in (He said sim reason and that's the reason why iRacing doesn't have weather either).

The SF is updated to something else that's totally different now... idk what they are going to call it, but it won't be the same.

He said something about being able to find that painter a lot quicker and a lot faster, thus allowing them to "become famous".

Yay. Because FM.net isn't full of people who want to "become famous" already lol.

There will be another stream like this one on Thursday morning.

If they don't let us properly lower/stance cars with proper upgrades I'm don't with T10

They did say they retweaked the upgrade/tuning system.

forza 5 will be the ultimate decider between One and PS4, among others.

i really wanna see how this turns out

What racing game is on the PS4? The Crew.... and a Simcade that graphically looks good. I think Fortza 5 will be in my home (I am starting to feel like a fanboy, and I don't like it).

In the gamespot video, he was talking about Launch Control on the R35. So which leads me to believe that we could probably get Anti lag and Boost Control..... Which would be miles beyond GT6.

Side note, Impulse, you should sell your 360 when the One comes out so you can play GTA5 with me on PS3. I'll be doing that. haha.

I don't have a PS3, even though I'd love to get one.

that would be quite amazing

I'm sold.....

hmmmmmmmm

I'm going to need a lot more info on the game before I dump probably the best part of a grand on a new Xbox, FM5 and a new wheel.

No auction house or storefront confirmed.

But you have this new thing that'll work just like the SF but better. Instead of a one time fee, you get paid per usage.

thats kinda cool

As soon as somebody finds out something about FM5, post it here and I'll throw it into the OP.

No Dirt

Multiple Tire Compounds from Forza 2 

LMP, LaFerrari and Shelby Cobra were all talked about by Dan on Gamespot interview this morning.

Multiple tire compounds? You mean companies? Because we had multiple compounds in 3 and we do in 4.

Not companies.

They are working with a superb sim tire company that will include Forza 2 style tire compounds. They are testing how the tire feels are large slip angles and at extreme heat (cough cough what a tire does while it's drifting) 

Also, they are doing iRacing laser scanning of tracks. New and previous ones. So Road Atlanta shouldn't be garbage anymore.

Taken off Instagram.     Sorry for the pic size I'm not sure how to fix it in this new box thing on my phone 

BUT, if you look you can see what looks to be a falken tire mustang, which looks to me like JTPs car, uk, a DRIFT CAR

EDIT: The mustang had a Formula Drift windscreen banner
