I'll probably get on around 9pm Eastern and start a lobby if anyone wants to mess around before the qualifying starts around 10pm.

I'm sad that we didn't get to see anything though. This is Microsofts flagship exclusive, and instead we get info about CoD Ghosts, which will be more popular on the 360 by far.

I'm sure just as they have done with the previous games they will have a fully playable build running in some cockpit setups at E3, so I'm looking forward to getting hands-on with it in a few weeks. As far as what little we did see from the Xbox One FM5 reveal footage, I'm actually a little disappointed with the visuals :smith:

I wonder what the gesture will be to restart Forza 5 after it locks up.

edit: gtcc is running A class unlimited Mercedes tonight. There will be some racing, and then car soccar or other shenanigans to follow.

If we can do custom gestures, I'd map it to flipping the bird, personally.

Well at least it'll be nice to be able to find your box even with the lights completely off. I can't imagine what a large shelf of games will look like though.

I know everyone wants this but I see it working about as well as it does in practice on low-ranking iRacing classes - you'll get loving morons coming straight up onto a hot track right out of their pit stall, right into your quarter panel.

True, but that can be countered by password-protected lobbies or invite-only's, club members only, etc.

Just have collisions off for the first five seconds after you exit the pits, or until the first corner after the pits or something.

32 player join in progress track days that allowed you to pull into the pits to change or tune your car would be amazing. Somebody get on the horn to Turn10.

I hope we see a nice rise in server player limits with the new generation. Does anything on the xbox support more than 32 players currently?

Also I like this picture from our race last week, Forza owns.

Pretty sure you're thinking of BF3 on PC which has a server limit of 64 people and only has that on PC. Don't think CoD or anything else has 64 player servers on their MP games.

Why did Turn 10 trim a bit off the FM logo? It looked good as it was. Polyphony hasn't hosed with the GT logo since it's debut. :(

Also, pCARS looks more real. I'll need more screenshots to be impressed.

Because Turn 10's brand manager just happens to be someone's mom who is doing it for free, apparently. Comic Sans for Forza 6's logo.

Stop hating on the new logo, it's nice! Since I'm a bored graphic designer I figured I'd tell you guys why. I should probably preface this with the fact that I do think the original logo was fine, however and didn't really need replacing.

New logo looks better, I always thought the old one was just F III for Forza 3 until they used it with the fourth game. Then I just got confused.
