http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/07/18/forza-motorsport-5-install-offline-details-clarified "The player won't be blocked from playing the game" if they've never connected it to Xbox Live, Greenawalt said. He told IGN, "While the Drivatar feature is designed to take advantage of Xbox Live and the processing power of the cloud, its revolutionary approach to opponent has been designed to work offline as well. Racing against the Drivatars of others does not require a connection.

So no patch, no nothing.

But you need to connect to the Internet in order to finish career mode. How will people in Mississippi finish the game now?

Forza makes the Cows go stupid. I doubt he can help it.

sparse physics with non object cars,

 

prebaked lighting along with static background and tons of lens flare/HDR to hide up some low graphical assets.

 

no true context-sensitive damage/physics in Forza 5

 

and it has prebaked texture scratches on cars

No matter how many times I see fanboys say some game is better than another, when comparing games that aren't available yet, for consoles that aren't available yet, I still get a little chuckle every time.

You guys are all idiots.

So will it have AI because they were saying it uses to cloud to see what you do and use that for your opponents.. so it doesn't actually have AI.. so if you never go online you will be playing by yourself without even computer opponents.

Part of the game not finished in time for certification. Doesn't become optional content just because there are scenarios in which users will be unable to gain access to it. It's just this stupid mess due to Microsoft needing the game out on a certain date. Also why all this stuff from previous Forza games is missing I assume.

Cows get the best of both worlds? You think TLOU is game of the generation? It's not even close. It's a good game but far from GOTG and let's not even mention uncharted.

You sir are the most complete moron on this site.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong... That is all in game footage. Hell, they even went through and laser scanned every little detail at every location that you can race at. And yet cows still try to claim that Turn 10 cut corners... And fast forward this one to see the real time damage...

MS really needs to work better at how it communicates with its customers. There are so many mixed signals coming from them, that you never really know what's going on. How many clarifications has MS had to put out since the Xbone was announced. Glad Forza is back on track, but MS needs to do something about its PR division. Perhaps all the MS execs and beaurocrats and what not should just shut up and let only the devs talk lol :P

I make sense even if english is not first language. Maybe you just cannot understand because so much butthurt and own. Yes, cow get pretty visual and amazing gameplay. TLoU is better than any xbox game, please do not cry. Uncharted games are also, why not mention? Because you cannot debate. Moron destroys you in every debate, how does feel? You cannot even argue position, only call name and say "make sense, make sense" when it already make sense. You must go back to school and learn debate properly, because you do not earn MS pay imo.

A while back Msoft put out a statement stating that they need to do just that. Granted a decent portion of that came from the community being ignorant of one aspect or another about the Xbox One.

Forza 5 is sounding and looking great.
