Not bad. Not bad. Combined with Starfield should be good. Would be better with F8 having a release date. Would like to have seen the campaign which is the weakest part of forza for the past couple of titles.

If Starfield hits well with these, this would mark the beginning of a turn around point where they stop digging and start crawling out.

RT reflections in Forza 8 in gameplay only in mirror and flat glass surfaces ? did i hear right ?
at 30 mins in they say they are rendering all their enorvmints at 4k60 with ray tracing on track to create true to life reflections on all smooth surfaces and mirrors.

So not really sure what the clarification is there is the road a smooth surface ? the metal railings ? the paint on the roads ?

he says all smooth mirror and flat glass surfaces. Maybe "smooth mirror surface" includes clean car bodies.
 
Xbox has announced it will show what's next for fans when it returns to Los Angeles for its yearly Showcase this summer.

So it looks like we will get another e3 showing in June. Wonder if starfield will be a day of the show drop to give them maximum time to finish ? Or that could be Forza. Who really knows. I am excited to see what they have in store for July - June . Hoping avowed is a late 2023 or early 2024 game personally .
 
It really is freakin impressive if this is indeed fully implremented during gameplay. The materials, the paint chipping, the dirt collection, the dynamic weather and daytime along with full RT implementation makes this potentially the most next gen looking racer. And all at 60fps
The RT shown in the trailer is mighty.
