I am just not impressed visually with any Forza game on the Xbone. I was pretty impressed with Forza 4 though. I'll wait for GT
wut.
I'm part of Glorious Master Race™ and game at 4K with two 980 Ti's and i still think Forza 6 looks great. Especially for a console at 1080p/60fps. In the rain this looks atleast as good as Drive Club but at twice the frame rate. It's putting the PS4 to shame.
pCARS looks better than both at 4K of course but that's almost purely from the massive resolution/detail boost.
The surroundings, especially the trees, looks so bad on track 2 (I've played it myself as well). I just wonder how it can be possible, are Xbox One really that week?
Shouldn't all trees be real good loking 3D models in a game 2015?
The step from Forza 4 to this is just too small.

Does this game have drivatar?
It does actually, and to be honest, it made my experience on the demo worse than at the preview event. The consoles we had were not connected and the AI drove much better in my opinion. I guess I should blame my friend list or at least those who play Forza as if it were Destruction Derby. ;p
Downloaded the demo last night. The first track in Rio is gorgeous. What's incredible is the driving. This just feels better than PCars. Sense of speed is great. Damage looks realistic and things look particularly realistic in the cockpit/drivers seat.
Clearly the downer for some of the GT fans is that the graphics ouside the cars do not have that photo realism that GT seems to nail. Forza games have never really nailed it during actual gameplay. That doesn't mean the graphics are bad or less, its just different but beautiful nonetheless.
I like the gameplay in this demo. Haven't gotten to the rain or night driving yet. Not even sure if its in the demo. Clearly from this demo alone, it will trump PCars and be the best simulation racer until GT possibly shows up.

it looks good but something just doesnt look right with the cars on the track.
i cant see what it is but just doesnt look right in the rain,dry he cars look fine on the track though.
I don't know what it is for you, but for me it's the smoke/fog clouds that do not interact with lights or shadows but are bright even under the cars.

God that looks ace. Downloaded the demo last night but not had chance to play it yet.
I'm part of the P.C. (980Ti) , Xbox one, Wii u, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii master race
The more i play the demo the more im convinced i need a decent wheel set up when this releases... i absolutely love the wet racing.. hitting those puddles at speed and fighting for control!! The spray as the wind blows rain across the track.. the lighting down the pit straight.. love it! Cant wait to see the Ring in the rain now.. :)
i have always enjoyed forza games for their pick up and play ability, but i do hope that they lean towards a more photorealistic look. as another comment said, GT had it nailed (or was towards being nailed) even on ps3, so I know that turn10 can do it someday. Ive never played with a wheel either but I like the feel of Forza over any other racing game on pad. For me though Pcars plays best, in terms of FPS, feel and graphics.
Gran Turismo has had a more visually appealing lighting and shading model but Forza series has been better in every other category, especially gameplay, audio, online, community, and sense of speed balanced with a truly responsive sense of weight. Turn 10 has nailed so many sim-lite aspects of racing it's easy to pick Forza as the best console racer by a clear mile.
I hope PD gets their shit together and returns to form but for now they have been lagging behind in every area but the least important one: looks.

I can't understand why you despise Drivatars Drift. I remember you hating them in Forza 5. I like em. They can get a bit annoying sometimes. But it is better than most other racing games "follow 1 line and 1 line only" AI.

Gameplay wise both Forza and GT lag behind PCars, Forza & GT are car collecting driving games while PCars is a racing game!
I also agree about GT's lighting it is so superior to Forza's.
