Forza Motorsport 2023 vs Forza Motorsport 7 - How Much Of A Generational Leap Is It Really?

[@icky_thump]

Yeah i dont see it... 7 looks better in nearly every way, aside from maybe the flat trees and spectators.

[@acidgaming0]

I'd like to see a DF comparison between Motorsport and Horizon 5. I think Horizon has more appealing visuals.

[@andreiret13]

2023 looks so desaturated it's almost sad to watch.

[@mikeuk666]

That's what real life lighting looks like though

[@andreiret13]

@@mikeuk666 I don't know about you mate but real life definitely doesn't look like that, especially during a sunny day.

[@fsaavedrap]

@@mikeuk666 This. I often go to the track to take photos and I always have to up the saturation in post. Lots of racing happens in the 10am-4pm window and on a clear day that means flat lighting and washed out colors.

[@jesusistheonlygodamen3406]

Track texture is so low on Series X...

[@balaam_7087]

Man, the ray tracing downgrade and those 360p muddy blurry track textures are super disappointing, but I guess everything else still looks pretty good.

[@kloud1174]

yea cool story, got my refund on 23 and re-downloading 7 NOW!!!

[@BETEP-gw7qp]

IDK if it's just me, but just looking at these games side by side, the new looks worse to my eye. And when I played it, it felt worse too, and sounded like crap. What am I missing?

[@rainey06au]

5:08 looks like they had to downgrade to a simpler fence with less geometry here too. Probably to compensate for the 3D trees.

[@VariantAEC]

There are also 2D trees in this shot on FM23's side as well.

[@DuckAlertBeats]

The older game CLEARLY looks more attractive doesn't it???

[@balaam_7087]

In some ways. Others, like the lack of any raytracing, it’s clearly behind.

[@deathtrooper2048]

But FM23 looks more realistic. Also FM7 has plenty of moments thay don't look as good as this.

[@manostororosso2364]

I thought the new Forza was on the left half of the video...

[@Poet_from_ice]

I don't understand what took them so many years. Trees, cabin and sky are better, yes, but that's all, nothing next-gen-like

[@kyus1974]

Most of the differences are not visual

[@rainey06au]

@@kyus1974 because they're things that have been deleted from FM7

[@kyus1974]

@@rainey06au unlike fm7, this one is worth playing

[@neilwilson5785]

Ah, a philosopher. Love it. They spent most of the money not on foliage and lighting, but on driving.

[@agamaz5650]

at first I thought 7 is the new one

[@dreamcastfan]

Same, there were so many points in the video where I thought 7 looked better (in fact at the start of the video I thought for some reason the new game was being shown on the left! It would help if they’d just called it Forza 8 instead of dropping the number).

[@yannickliekens9303]

EVERYTHING is build from the ground !!! Euhjm no... For some reason It just doesnt look like a step up from forza 7... I miss FM 2 goddamn what a game that was :)

[@MoonDoes]

I've noticed that aliasing is a problem again, they've taken a step back in that regard.

[@basshead.]

It has better anti-aliasing than FH5, but the graphics are still much better in FH5.

[@mrqwerty005]

The car details look better on the 7

[@JamesPound]

Road textures too

[@qwertyuiop-gf2pd]

it's still 2D! 0:42

[@RunEmDownTony]

I feel like FM7 wheels look better detailed. I mean the Mercedes wheels in FM7 material looks like metal, or aluminum, while the wheels in the new Forza looks plastic hubcap like.

[@TheRoadbots]

Another great video Oli, keep up the great work. I cant wait for this on the 10th, i have always loved the Forza games.

[@JoseFArias-lt4uv]

This gen does not seem to start. Only a few games really look "next gen". Maybe Rockstar or Naughty Dog can fully utilize the power of the new machines

[@lawyerlawyer1215]

It’s clear the the new machines Aren’t powerful , whenever a game tries to “use their power” it’s an unstable 30fps experience

[@JamesPound]

@@lawyerlawyer1215 The new consoles are much more powerful, it's just that all the power has been used to reach better resolutions. With 4k being targeted more often, less resources are available to make the dramatic improvements we all want. Since 8k games are probably not the way forward, I guess it'll be the next generation of consoles that deliver the real uplift we've been waiting for. Sucks that it'll be 15 years between the dramatic uplift (beginning of X1 era to the beginning of the next era).

[@kyus1974]

They are no more powerful than a low end PC.

[@rainey06au]

3:40 c'mon though, and they are hovering above the seating. I'll take the cardboard crowd with the normal maps any day..

[@lilbin378]

The track details are a lot better in Forza Motorsport. The trees aren’t flat which is a huge step up and the environment just looks a lot better overall. But the cars just look so much more bland, they aren’t shiny, the sun doesn’t reflect on them as much as Motorsport 7. The brake lights don’t have that crisp gleam in the dark. It’s weird because the car lighting and reflections have always been one of forza’s strongest points. But it’s severely lacking in the new game. All the lighting seems to really lack contrast. The shadows seem so light, all the colours seem really flat. The way they talked about this game pre release seemed to suggest it would be absolutely beautiful visually. I am sad that it hasn’t lived up to that

[@tears2040]

Forza 7 looks better upon first glance…….. Definitely not impressed with this new game

[@Cshizzle94]

GT7 cross gen effortlessly beats the Next gen Forza...Once again, Microsoft studios disappoints. They must've lost all their talent. It's sad.

[@fred420]

KZbin videos don't do this game justice. Playing on a 75" OLED the game looks absolutely insane! The lighting is generations ahead of FM7. More imporantly is the driving model which is the best I've experienced and I play alot of sim racers.. It's simply on another level.

[@tears2040]

Pretty sure no such thing as a 75” Oled as they don’t come in that size? Also plenty of videos online that show whether something looks good or not and this Forza looks extremely MID

[@fred420]

@@tears2040 I meant 77". there is a bug in the game that causes the gamma and black levels to be messed up currently if you touch the settings you need to reboot the pc and clear the shaders (sucks) Turn10 is working on the patch and it will be ready for the official launch.
