Well once forza 3 surpasses GT5 prologue's car models then we can talk. |
Ummm...they already do and have since they showed of gameplay at E3. Where have you been  ? Plus polygon count is 5 times of what GT5:P had so, I'm guessing you just didn't read the article he posted or something else.
|
Check out this car man. It looks 3 times as good as forza cars cause it has 3 times as many polygons !
Now.. It's fairly obvious that it doesn't. So what does all this mean ?
A box is still a box regardless of the amount of polygons you waste on it.
And the above contains 2.880.000 polygons.

Well.....I'd like to see some form of proof or a way I can download some sort of "polygon counter", if you will, as to see whether your just spouting nonsense or not, are you sure that doesn't reference to 2.88 polygons too? 
|
I already deleted it. I can make a new one though... hold on.
Okay same.. except this car can fly.. As you can see the wheels are spun differently.
This one is only 2 million polygons though. It seems that I miscalculated before since i used the same amount of objects and the same amount of verticles.
Regardless. Using the logic this cars is twice as detailed as a forza 3 one :p

You come across as though you know. But you dont. Now put that car with full texture maps and an environment to match Forza 3 and see if it runs with 8 cars at more than 10 frames per sec. Bet you it doesn't. You have to take into context everything else the engine is doing and what hardware limitations a console has.
|
You come across as though you're ignoring my point. Which you are. I don't care how well it runs. It makes my laptop lag just from me moving around in max.
All i'm saying is that more polygons doesn't mean more detail. Optimisation of your polygons does.
Next time i suggest you actually read what I write as you seem to like responding to me unrelated of my actual post.

Of course it's all the artist to be honest. How good they are at making use of the polygons. Polys are a foundation, but like Ive pointed out a trillion times already. The cars flip over so they have rendered underneath with a ton of polys and the interiors to a minute degree. Thats where alot of the polys would have gone. So much so you can take a screenshot of a close up on the rear seatbelts of a civic if you wanted. GT5P had no need to model the underneath of the car, and I cannot find a screenshot from the public thats of GT5P inside of the car like the forza 3 ones.
