GT Sport vs Other Games: Comparison Video Thread

FM7 (dal video di gamersyde)

GTS (da You Tube)

Reale

Love the track textures in GTS that too from yt video. Gamersyde is suppose to have best quality but Forza blurry in comparison

2017 configuration is the right one for a november 2017 game

configuration of what? of the fences? LOL

I'm taking bets that forza7 xbox X 4k textures will wipe the floor overall with gts's textures on pro. any takers?
I mean, surely you know emula's forza reference material, is not -lets say- the best possible
Bets are on! Everybody free to put their monies where their mouth is
Especially my friend @emula

Is there a difference?

That Forza screen grab looks like the videos that didn't capture HDR correctly, making it very under-saturated. Or it just can be the overcast, but even reds look very dull compared to most any other videos.

I didn't realize all racing games had to have up-to-the-year accurate versions of all tracks included based on their release. I guess that means you'll be classifying GT's Nordschleife a "fantasy" in a few months, when the graffiti no longer matches.

You mean a member with a history of grabbing the worst representations of a particular game appears to have done it again? Why I never!

That being said, it's worth pointing out that the beginning of the GT500 GT-R race was the least impressive part of the FM7 E3 demo, visually. It does indeed look a little flat: it's when the rain comes in that the game's visuals go to 11. Both of the other races (Porsche @ Dubai, Race Truck @ Mugello) looked more natural. I'm guessing it has something to do with the dynamic weather then, and I'm hoping it's touched up before release.

If that's the case, than considering all these games started production prior to 2017, than all the tracks aren't using the right configuration I guess.

Shocking, I know. Who would've guessed it.

Although, this comparison has brought something to my attention. GTS is looking more vivid than it ever has, even more so than Forza at this point. I wonder how that will get received in comparison.

None of these games are finished yet so we have to wait for retail version. GTS IMO is looking much better ATM

They are looking quite on par with each other. Where I'm seeing a difference is within GTS' lighting model. With the X, Forza is probably going to have an advantage with things like textures.

Youtube videos are not going to do these games justice. I'm sure we're going to be blown away come launch of both these games, when we play them in person.

what are you talking about?

GTS is clearly the one with the worst rapresentation in that comparison. Stop your campaign against me

What are you even comparing in those two photos?

You chose a rather dull, and dreary overcast image from Forza, compared to a nice vibrant photo with the sun peaking through the horizon on GTS. That's why your comparisons always get called into question.

Are the only available pictures of the two games, what should I post? Images that doesn't exist yet?

Yeah, I think someone mentioned it before, but Forza 7 has the yellow haze that was present in CodeMasters' early titles - wonder if that is something they could fix before release. GTS color palette looks very wide - they did mention that they've been working with HDR since the beginning of GTS production though.

This is supposed to be bright/sunny conditions:


Edit: the thumbnail for the video should be what it looks like.

This was totally necessary

Ok, that's fine and understandable, but what are you comparing between the photos?

 

[SDSPOWER01]

Well

Well the real life shot seems to have a similar dull comparison just as the Forza so i would say the only one not fair in this comparison is GTS since its set in dawn/sunset TOD.

Gamersyde fixed the colours for this video because they couldn't turn HDR off at E3. It doesn't look as washed out as the video you chose.

 

[ImaRobot]

Gotcha.

With the Real shot using what looks like something similar to a fisheye lens, it'll throw off the perspective of the image. Going off the shots @mrPetros posted, it seems like the wideness on the Forza image isn't incorrect.

Ahhh... looks much better. Are there any videos showing the nurb in sunny weather with HDR turned off?

I believe @ImaRobot's point is that, for years, Forza in particular was referred to as "cartoony" by some imaginative individuals because the colours were too vibrant. Now, GT has pumped up the saturation (and the light reflections: see Brands in the beta) and similar complaints are few and far between.

This is supposed to be bright/sunny conditions:

I was expecting something similar to the terrible thumbnail, but got a whole other bad! That's not representative of what the game looked like in person at all: it too must've been recorded wrong.

(NINJA-EDIT) - Ah, so it was!

This was totally necessary

While some may not be bothered by an obvious bias in what's meant to be a comparison thread, I imagine others will be happy to know.

You'll note the following question was ignored. I wonder why that is?

I remember some criticism on these forums concerning the over saturation of colour in Forza and how it was not realistic. I wonder if GTS will receive some of the same criticism as well.

EDIT: Somewhat tree'd above^^

GTS color palette is almost perfect.....

forza's over saturation of colour is still there....

The difference between saturation levels of the games are minor at best. GTS definitely bumped it up with this game, and its obvious.

 

[Johnnypenso]

Pretty much identical really.

Also, why are those Yokohama signs not on the game version of the track? Is GTS out of date already?

 

[UKMikey]

I don't think there'll be a fair comparison until shots are available of the same track at the same time of day and in the same weather conditions. the sun seems to me to be out in the GTS picture above and not out in the Forza one (some of the cars have their headlamps on).

 

[SlipZtrEm]

The 'Ring has some of the best lighting in GT Sport, and yet even that picture highlights the oversaturated greens and yellows.

No, real life is out of date, they're definately there in the game version.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I have to make clear, 'cause now I see it wasnt clear, that these photos I posted are ftom differerent times. To me it seems the fence was at forza place, until the construction on the sidelines started (that you can see on 2nd pic), and that constuction was the reason the fence moved some, giving in the space needed for construction.

either way, nothing changed on the track itself, on the road where we will all drive.

What about this striped pole? It's not in the game! GTS is out of date ! Forza wins!!

I doubt either of the games is going to have a current year model anyways.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Can we add more PCARS 2 to the comparisons? I like their lighting tech as well.

That ring picture has different time of day between GTS and real life, so hard to judge.

Well the thread title does say "Other Games" .
