Nice. I imagine the extra core helped with that?

That's really great, and as other said, congrats on the reveal and I can't imagine how great it must feel to finally show the game to the public

Here's one of the other pics.
Waterside racing. Beautiful! Can't wait to find out more about career mode.

Just got home. Watched trailer - wow. Is this THE Forza 6 thread or is there another one for E3 I haven't found?
If that's gameplay, then holy shit Turn 10 what are you guys made of?
That looks better than Horizon 2 and it'll be at 60fps. Holy shit.
That's Photomode for sure. Can't wait to get more info, would be nice to know if there is dynamic TOD and changing weather.

The difference in the water drop physics between FM6 and FH2 are night-and-day. Insane, insane improvement on the weird windshield effects in Horizon.

So if I'm reading right, weather doesn't change mid race but there's no confirmation of time cycling, right?

Everything being static pretty much confirmed, otherwise they would have made a big deal out of it.

The raindrops aren't static, which is nice, but they still look a little weird.

OMG! OMG!
This is just truly amazing. I cannot believe what I just watched in this video, those giants puddles looked amazing and the rain, lighting, just holy shit. I still need a direct feed lap on any track, but holy hell is this impressive.

If they don't get more dev time from MS, this will never happen. At least this gen.
Yeah, slightly disappointed I admit, especially after the Amazon.de stuff, but still it's such a huge step up from F5. I really, really hope they don't go with GT route of having a limited selection of rain/night tracks, it definitely stinged me a bit in GT, but I do feel that T10 might have slightly different priorities and will hopefully make it work on all tracks.Forza Motorsport 6's weather and night racing aren't dynamic

EDIT: Am I totally wrong, or could that 3rd shot be Watkins Glen? Would be awesome if so.
Going to be interesting to see how they handle dynamic obstacles, like are they just going to stay there on the track and potentially harm the race or disappear over time. It's actually a bit shame that we might never see the proper way of having marshalls clean it up because generally having people on the track can be a no-go (unless you can just drive through them like ghosts). Really great stuff though.

Check from 2:58. There are some big shadows moving with the grey Aventador, so I assume dynamic shadows are in for the player headlights at least?
This is even crazier, because Horizon 2 didn't even do that.

Not every track has night or rain either, but I was also expecting that. It's a lot of work and size having to recreate all of the assets over since environment lighting is baked.
Edit: I got too excited. ):
Watched the ArsTech making of. Graphically, it isn't really blowing me away. They still haven't nailed the lighting or overall level of realism. Maybe they're not even going for it any more. But I will say that the aqua planing thing does actually seem like a cool feature. You get some really deep, gaping wide puddles here and there, that realistically you'll want to completely avoid lol. Shame it's not dynamic time of day either.

I hope the graphics step up to some of the recent racers. That's all I want.
A more alive track, or atmosphere. Colors that pop, and detail.

Given the framerate of other games with dynamic time of day and weather on xb1 and ps4 I'm happy enough with T10's choice

You ain't gonna see any kind of revolutions on Xbone hardware.
Purty, was hoping they would show a lot at E3.
I like my Forza to be a main event..lol.
I fully back their choice to keep things in check for a locked 60fps. It's the one thing they need to avoid compromising.
If they could just add a cheap effective AA solution that would help tremendously. Night racing in particular really brought out the jaggies. Presumably because of the high contrast bounce lighting on the vehicle (and track) ridges, spoilers etc.
I think at this point that the visuals are the result of some aesthetic choices and creative direction they decided to pursue. It has a distinct look to it, has been so since FM4. I believe it's a good thing for them, regardless of technical restraints they have to work with.
I loved the large puddle by turn 1 at Brands Hatch.
The helmet visors still look stupid.

I could understand Forza 5 not having dynamic lighting & weather since it was a rushed launch title, but not having it on Forza 6 doesn't make any sense.

I knew it by the graphics they displayed and knowing the tech in the box.
As soon as I seen it, with 1080p/60, there was no way the One could push Dynamic ala Driveclub with the image quality presented.
People are kidding themselves otherwise.

It'd take up a pretty huge chunk of budget and dev time for something that wouldn't show itself in the 4-lap races they prioritize anyway. From Turn 10's perspective, it doesn't really make sense for a series centered around 10-minute races yet.

Not dynamic that's a bummer but kind expected.
