Forza 5 just looks so clean and sterile, not that it looks bad, some shots look amazing. Just that Drive Club looks more photo-realistic.

FM5 looks like Wind Waker in comparison
Wind Waker with nuclear explosions going on in the background from time to time.

Omg Driveclub you're reflections! So real! So reflecty!!!!
At least give Forza a fair shake. Both games look fanatastic, and one is rendering twice the frames than the other. (which is apparently not an issue anymore now that Driveclub has reflections or something) One has a realistic model, one as a hyper-stylized baked model. A lot of it comes down to personal taste but DC doesn't "blow it out of the water" and it's not "an entire generation ahead!"
That reflection is a lot easier to do than the dash reflection. Forza doesn't even look like the windscreen exists in-car.

Baked lighting VS dynamic lighting is a big difference.
Forza looks good, Driveclub looks almost photorealistic.

I bet we will. Personally I'd always rather see a beautiful countryside than city blocks though. I've gotten enough city based racing games over the years.
Photorealistic... and then you notice that the animation is terrible
The difference between 60 fps and 30fps in racers and fighting games is night and day.

Forza is more polished atm, DC isn't. DC will win in November
what is more polished in Forza? those pop ins in rear view mirrors or those terrible environment?

I preferred when DC was the underdog, keep on doubting DC!
Remember the Killzone doubt after E3.
It's glorious.

"Will win". What doest that mean. Sales? Review scores? Graphics?
]And I'm sorry to keep posting Forza stuff but in this video alone you see all of the windshield reflections that Driveclub has, dense/detailed environments, etc. etc. I just don't see why it's cool to shit on Forza 5now that Driveclub doesn't look like shit.[/URL]
All first party games look better since E3, hell even Knack looks better. KZ: SF is looking ridiculous right now.

real life is bleak, gray and no lighting?
That's funny, clearly you haven't seen that Forza video because a few seconds later you see the dash reflections and shadows, and dare I say it looks even more impressive than Drive Club's because the shadows look smoother, the ones in DC you can see a little shimmering.

Man, this game... I was right when I started to get hyped right after the reveal. In Evo I trust
So happy I'll be able to get the PS+ version and then upgrade, too! Lots of people to play with on day 1

Some of the vegetation in that video seems like it's not even lit at all. I agree that F5 has better framerate, slightly better IQ, but everything else just looks worse than DC.
(also I think, F5 has higher contrast, hence the better IQ. But that results in the so called "cartoonish" look).
In terms of winning. I don't like that term. Almost every game should win.

Amazing. The sense of speed, the lighting, everything. I can't wait for this game!
This is my issue. I think I'm just going to go for it on disc, fuck it.
It's not shitting when you simply state a fact. Forza environments just doesn't look as good as DC plus lightning is inferior. end of story.
just look at the footage or even the gifs then you can see the difference.
To clear up a few roles.
Eamon Urtone does work on the project as a video editor (and he's fantastic!), but Richard Weaver is the lead video editor on DRIVECLUB - https://vimeo.com/weavermonkey
Ged Talbot has been involved with the handling, but we have a very experienced team involved with developing it. With people from PGR, GRID 2, GT, MotorStorm, WRC, Wipeout, TT Superbiks, IndyCar Series and more working on it.
We're not a particularly large team at all, but we've got nothing but very talented individuals working on DRIVECLUB
I chose that Forza clip because both players were making a similar turn at a similar time of day with similar scenery and similar windshield reflection and dashboard shadows, haha. It'd be great if someone found that gameplay without the video in the corner.

Can you make a Gif of that same video a few seconds later? It shows some pretty impressive dash reflections that imo are even more impressive.

which is ironic because DC will actually *have* night and day

Keep up the good work, DC looks excellent, great improvement over E3. One criticism I would have is that the windshield looks too "clean" as such. It would be great if it (along with the car) progressively got more dirty (flies, and dust splatters, etc) throughout the duration of a race. Apart from that its looking very convincing so far.

Erm... that's taken from a direct feed gameplay video.

GT5 does the overcast lighting setting like no other game.
Is this salt I'm tasting?
Technical achievements do not come down to personal taste. Hell even the gif you posted is proof of that. That is the "easy/cheap" approach to reflection that really only works with hood cam. DC is doing sooo much more then Forza that even at 30fps ends up being more impressive. Whether you prefer one game over the other, that comes down to personal taste, and there's no wrong choice.

Awesome job! Please release an uncompressed video to download, youtube 1080p quality sucks.

I love the small details in DC that gives it a real look. I mean, they even made a part of the road that was repaired by filling in cracks with tar:
Now that's a crazy attention to detail.

Just noticed the red road on the radar. I wonder if this ends up being a huge area with multiple paths that change depending with each race (ala hot pursuit).
DLC track, probably why you don't know it.
Really? Dash reflections seem much more realistic in DC.

Which will have a 24h cycle in GT6, and anyone that's seen the Ring in GT5 knows what that means when it comes to lighting.
I've kinda expected it to be a bit like PGR where they've mapped out large areas for multiple tracks in each country. We know of UK, Canada and India so far.

I'm not sure, but I think so. Make sure you activated the DLCs in the big red button on the main menu after installing the DLC keys.
Also the track is only available in seasonals/online/practice, no A-spec races.

DC look better, but to my understanding (and impressions I got) DC seems to be using less fake stuff/techniques, or more taxing techniques which result in more realistic visuals.
Seems to me like some people are not understanding or ignoring this and simply go for IQ.
F5 is very good at IQ mind you, but certain things look so fake that make it look last gen compared to DC. Like that completely un-aligned reflections on the hood , dear lord hope they fix that!

I saw this game running live at Gamescom with the GT6 booth nearby and GT didn't look much worse. Not hyped for the graphics, but I hope the gameplay will make up for it.
