Forzamotorsport.net Forums

Hey everyone,

http://forzamotorsport.net/en-us/game/gallery/default.htm

Go and check it out. Ratings and photo views are reflected back in the game and vice versa.

We've also added comments and the ability to click on user names to see the rest of their photos.

Next feature we're testing now is leaderboards, then auction house, then the photo tournaments feature.

Thanks for being patient and awesome everyone.

This is really cool.  Thanks for adding this feature.  I'm away from home and the xbox for a few weeks due to work and it's great to check this out.

the gallery updated 08/05/10!!

Awesome.  Nice to see the photomode become more a part of the game and the community.  Nice work Turn 10!

Haters need not apply.

Great feature, thanks:) 

But I`m really missing  the "Today / Past 7 Days etc"  tabs under "Top Rated" and "Most Viewed". Now they are only under "Most Recent" tab and I think they should be in the others too - just like on YT :)

 Anyway thanks:)

Nice! I like the way photomode is more embeded into the community; its not just people making threads anymore. Keep up the good work T10!

E30 wins

I see the most viewed has still not changed, same old shots. That are not really using Photomode right.

I agree with Pebb. I think they are most viewed because they were one of the first screenshots to come from Forza...?

I hope to see more people take the time to rate and comment on each others photos. Truly a great feature.

I like the variety in the most viewed and clicking on it I only expect to see most viewed. Unless a new pic gets close to 10000 views it will be the same. Does exactly as it says on the tin. T10's picks are getting less people viewing.

Whats wrong with TRD DIS KAMI , DScammell and others pics? I don't think there's a "correct" way to use photomode and it would be pretty boring if everyone did start in the way you think. I don't understand your comments.

Can you elaborate? I'm liking this photo over many of yours. Its great how many styles and ways of taking photos are there, including yours. People are not using photomode right lol? Please post the right way to use photomode so we can all copy.

Sorry friend.

I am not talking about those guys, I am talking about stuff like the jump shots and high in the air shots. Mainly because the shots I am talking about are in a different group, from the Top 10 picks.

Take one of the most viewed or top rated shots:

WHAT

It seems to be just a snap shot in my view. Other then that, here is the other shots I am talking about:

Air Traffic

armored clio

sick jump 1

Pebb once again nailed it right on the head. He, and other dedicated forzatographers do not appreciate those quick snaps of jumps and other bilious content that get ratings they don't deserve.

Heres the problem, it is still going to get rated, probably even more so than others' excellent photos. That said, take the time to discover peoples' photos and appreciate them for their artistic value.

^So true.
I take the time to go and browse to a lot of photos in the storefront and I see a lot of  those quick photos and just have cars crashing and weird random stuff. That have better ratings than those I seen that have time and quality in them. But yeah Nothing we can do about them.. I my self Have had so good decent pictures in my storefront and they have been down rated. Maybe they like em but they just do it to be annoying.

I think if anyone is going to do a jump shot, then they should try to work on shot via:

Location

Composure & Rule of Third

Settings

Camera Angle, Height and Zoom

Take a film for an example: Gone in 60 Seconds

They used the whole jump thing very well, in how it was filmed.

There will always be more of those types of shots compared to the ones from here where people really take the time and go for quality.  We (fm.net) represent a very small percentage of the overall Forza population.  Most of the people who play have never and will never post on this board.  But now they have an equal opportunity to showcase their own UGC.  Those of us interested in the real deal know where to look.  Keep up the good work guys.

Okay Pebb. I get what you're saying although I don't think there's too many. Plenty of the more serious ones there. I actually quite like sick jump 1 but don't like the others.

I know T10 have changed their way of selecting picks but before that the numbers playing the game seems to have dropped a lot. Even the forums are a lot quieter. We could have most viewed this month and top rated this month to see some fresh pics.

THIS! Or, same as "recent" - Top Rated (or most viewed) today, past 7 days, month etc- just like on youtube.com

And whats the point of "Most Recent" of today, 7 days etc- u`re still watching the same photos, there`s just more of them in "month" tab then in "today". Cheez, Turn10 get yourself togerher;)
