Multi-screen for Forza 6?

[GBO Possum]

Having used three screens for Forza, Forza 2, Forza 3, Forza 4, GT5 and GT6 it's really hard to go back to a single screen. Yet I'm not seeing any official Forza 6 announcement which even implies that there will be support for more than one screen

Has anyone seen any evidence of support other than lashed up demo units running on PCs?

I feel really spoiled with GT5 and GT6 triple screen support, which is a step up from the Forza implementations in the way that GT handles replays. GT spreads the view across all three screens, whereas Forza just repeats the same view on all screens.

So far, I'm holding off on buying either Xbox One or PS4 until I know which way they will jump. An announcement of multi-screen support for FM6 would have me buying three Ones in a heartbeat!

Anyone else holding their breath for this?

No, they've said no support. Retail Xbones don't support it, only dev kits.

I missed that announcement

Dan mentioned in a video at E3 it wouldn't be supported.
Kinda gutted myself it isnt in.

However multi-screen IS going to be possible to some extent.
It should be possible using the "Spectator Mode" on additional account(s) / console(s).

As such it would be possible to utilise a view on those consoles with a degree of lag.

Spectating
"Players will be able to spectate any multiplayer race, including League lobbies and traditional multiplayer races. When spectating a multiplayer race, players will be able to switch in real-time between any of the cars in the race, and choose from a selection of cameras, including game cameras and on-board car cameras, as well as telemetry data. In addition, players will be able to chat with other spectators or with players in the lobby. For League lobbies, we will be giving access to select broadcasters so that they can broadcast (i.e. via Twitch) spectated Leagues races on their own channels."

Should it be safe to assume these are features on single-player race replays as well?

 

[Mr Latte]

Possibly but then again the spectator mode may have additional views/features.

At the 1:27 mark of this video is where Dan says no Multiscreen in FM6. I don't care for the false advertising they do with these triple screen rigs at shows. People see this and think for sure it must be in.

Now the game is out, did someone try the "spectating mode" with a triple screen ?

I've asked in the chat thread which may get more traffic.
I expect LAG to be an issue but might be okay for additional screen eg rear view / showcase replay / physics data
