@McLaren - so do I just send the bill for a One to you? Hell of a shot there. 👍

Heh, scrolling down, I immediately thought I'd be looking at a shot from El Capitan...

Bah. All the eye-candy and the increased community features are so tempting, but I just have to remind myself about the deceiving X360 stuff.

It's your money so you have go with whichever console you can afford/prefer, but you can't possibly be surprised that they made the XB1 version far more attractive than the 360 version.

I'm not. Which wasn't the point. The "we have a DLC program planned for both versions" pre-release being switched to "absolutely no post-release support" a week into October is what I'm referring to.

Prior to that, I figured I'd own a One within the next six months; I'll probably end up with a PS4 too, as I've always preferred Sony's exclusives, but as Forza has become my primary console racing series - and it's now got two current-gen installments versus GT's whispers of one - I thought I might actually go Microsoft first this generation.
 
So, have any of you had success taking realistic photos with matte or even semi gloss painted cars? I've been trying and cannot find the right setting?

You definitely have a valid complaint there. While I understand that the XB1 is the future and they're trying to move everyone over there, I can't condone the flat out lying that's been done about DLC for the 360.

I haven't even tried yet. I'll see if I can come up with something tonight.

Honestly, if you haven't made a decision yet, go for the One version. The thunderstorms in the game is where the beauty & details of this game really shine and display what the One can do over the X360. That's not a knock against the X360 or that graphics are everything, but it's hard to not think this game is really best enjoyed on the One. The X360 version has reviews crediting it's still as fun to play, but man, it seems to just lose all the extra details that stand out. The recent DLC plan (or non-existent) has to be an even bigger knock against the version.
 

H2 on X1 has mind-numbing graphics, no doubt about that. Why oh why do the headlights look so fake? It looks like the light is being projected on a desktop from a table lamp! Beams should be dynamic, and projected in front of the car, not 180 degrees! No wonder you can barely see 15 feet in front of your car.

Eekh! Was hoping they'd fix this in H2.

It runs on AIR! :eek:

And fumes from the exhausts in front of it. :D
 
What sucks about the smoke, is that the more you zoom in, the more it dissipates. If you zoom out, it comes back to its original form.
I've noticed that too. Such a bummer because there have been a few cases where it would have made an amazing shot but all I end up with is just a spinning wheel.

I bought a '70 Camaro and painted it flat black just to take photos of it, but you're right, I can't seem to find a setting, location, weather condition, or time of day that makes it look realistic.
