Forza 4

[GreenMint]

Wish Turn 10 would announce bikes one day for a Forza game

Could replicate this "innocent" shot from PGR4

 

[Reaper 392]

You can't drive the Warthog. It's available in the AutoVista mode only.

oh thank god for that. would kinda ruin the sim feel if you could

as for bikes i share the jeremy clarkson view on them so im quite happy that they're not in game

 

[GravyMonster]

I'd quite enjoy having bikes - so long as it was in bikes only races.

I was playing Super Hang On on my megadrive a few days back and thinking it'd be great if there were a modern game like this

You mean like Moto GP?

 

[GravyMonster]

No, I mean like the original mode of Super Hang On, where you had to win races to get better sponsors, whod give you money to pay for a new mechanic, or bike upgrades like a new frame, or tires, engines etc.

I'd prefer the Isle of Mann TT, full remake of this with Superbike, Supersport and sidecar. Would be epic

I loved that game on the PS2. I wish someone would do another for this gen.

Any news on new tracks? I've become deathly bored with the same old recurring tracks in this series and the addition of Hockenheim was less than inspiring.

 

[squerble]

Other than Top Gear test track and the Bernese Alps nothing new has been announced.

Disappointed with the Top Gear track as I wanted there to be a "playground" layout where you have the full runway and taxiways at your pleasure. That'd be fun to have a few mates blasting around there, although the inclusion of 1/4, 1/2 and full mile drag strips.

I know Hockenheim is a shadow of its former self, but it's still pretty good to drive. I've always enjoyed it in F1 games and rFactor.

Wish they'd gone to Spa though

The more confirmed list so far is over on ForzaCentral, since it's maintained by someone very close to the inside, (BadNed), it's pretty legit.

http://www.forzacentral.com/forum/f...track-list-dlc-[wip]-updated-august-29th.html

Two more circuits that haven't officially been annouced are

Indianapolis Motor Speedway (USA) [source]

- Speedway
- Road Course


Infineon Raceway (USA)

- Full Circuit
- Stock Car Circuit
- TBA

I think people have pretty much agreed that it's 5 new locations

TG Test Track
Bernese Alps
Hockenheim Ring
Indianapolis
Infineon

They had a survey ages ago on which tracks to add, Spa came out top, I think Bathurst was in there, we are hoping they appear as DLC, but I doubt they'll be in at launch unless T10 have pulled the wool well and truly over everyones eyes!

I'd expect more if they wheren't on a 2 year dev cycles, so 5 locations isn't horrific, just not as many as we'd all ideally like!

 

[GravyMonster]

Mount Panorama would be epic

If there were tracks as DLC instead of cars, I'd be more tempted to actually buy them.

 

[GreenMint]

My biggest worry so far is that my favourite track (Sunset Peninsula) is missing

 

[GravyMonster]

I noticed quite a few FM3 tracks are missing - Le Mans, Sedona, New York, Motegi and Sunset Peninsula.

I'm hoping this is just because they haven't been seen in any teaser videos yet, not because they're missing from the game. The only reason I can see for removing them is disc space restrictions.

Although New York isn't much of a loss.

If they dropped La Sarthe I'd be seriously considering cancelling my pre-order. New York I never play - hired driver every time tbh..

 

[HeX]

It's a shame the game won't let you install the missing tracks from FM3, that would have been handy.

 

[Demon]

Don't panic, here's at least the biggest indication most of the tracks are back from FM, by looking at the world tour map, of course some (like sidewinder or whatever it was renamed in FM3) may not be suitable for World Tour, but you can see tracks like Le Mans etc.

The only changes we know about are that people think Maple Valley (Announced) may replace New York as a track (not a big deal, although I did like R1 around it)..

 

[GravyMonster]

Yup same. Up, down, round the roundabout. Up, down, round the roundabout. Up, down, zzzzzzzz. And the guy who came up with the idea of putting chicanes on the track has a special level of hell reserved just for him.

The version of New York from GT3 or 4 was much better, which added a few extra left/rights on to the back straight.

 

[Skii]

ahh good call Demon, I forgot about that world map, thats a good indication La Sarthe is still there

Spa is looking a lot less likely now though.

 

[weyland yutani]

La Sarthe was nicely done in FM3, they'd be stupid to remove it. Nordschleife desperately needed re-doing for FM4 but I fear it's another copy and paste job.
