IGN? That's T10's mysterious special partner?

 

[imported_Oni]

I was wondering about that, i was hoping for a car list

 

[omgitsbees]

I figure there will probably be a trailer later today or something that will show the cars. Or maybe our resident Turn-10 guy will see this thread and let us in on the list.

Damn it... no mention on what's in the pack yet!! I wonder if it's just cars, tracks, or both. I'm guessing just cars (can't view link at work)

 

[omgitsbees]

Yeah, it'll be just cars.

The link is just a list of what will be in today's update, says that Forza 4 will have an update on Dec 6, the December IGN Pack. You aren't missing anything.

There was some buzz on the IGN forum about Turn 10 announcing a partner for the December pack. Ironic that its IGN, lol. One guy came on saying the pack will include Porsche. I believe the exclusive contract with EA is up this month, but I don't know if it was renewed and doubt Porsches would be appearing this soon if they are coming at all.

I really hope there more fun cars, than last pack. Something sexy and powerful, like the 2012 Camaro ZL1.

i quite disagree with that. I liked a bit of the cars when i bought the pack, and fell in love with more when i started driving them. I just havnt bough, and dont feel like buying, the Bel Air. Its all just personal preference. I wish they'd throw in my JDM cars, but i bet theres millions of people that would want something better.

You must have gotten a different pack than I did. Mine had ALMS and ILMS cars, a modern day muscle car, along with the latest Lamborghini and Aston Martin offerings.

I saw those, the Lamborghini was fun. Just something, like a underdog car back, where you can have fun with cars you wouldnt think you would.

 

[omgitsbees]

The problem with that is that you aren't going to get a car pack that will please everyone. Some players are very adamant about wanting only race cars for example, or exotics, or classic cars. I think Turn-10 does a good job with each pack, releasing a car that has something for everyone.

 

[imported_Oni]

I know that, and they do. I get gotta find the right car for me, its hard since they took Porsche out of the picture.

 

[slick1ru2]

I thought the last car pack did have something for everyone.

Old Muscle car, check
New Muscle car, check
New Exotic, check
New GT Race car, check
New Prototype Race car, check
Sporty hatchback, check
Luxury Sport 2+2, Check
Cup Car, check
Mid sized Sport Sedan, check
Vintage SUV, check

I always wondered how narrow minds worked (just a joke).

I like particular cars not particular classes of cars.

I would absolutely LOVE IT if Porsche made it's way back to the Forza franchise (and extended even out to GT franchise too as I play both). Even if they make just an announcement like 'hi folks, here's December DLC... oh ya special new partner we teased about was Porsche, you'll see a Porsche DLC pack soon'

I would die, I would be in love, it would be the summer romance all over again

 

[digitalic]

I hope they include the HONDA HSV!

http://m.ign.com/articles/1213496 car list looks pretty interesting to me.

2011 Monster Sport Suzuki SX4
2011 Mazda RX-8 R3
2011 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor
1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS-396
1977 Ford Escort RS1800
1981 Volkswagen Scirocco S
1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio Verde
1988 Pontiac Fiero GT
2010 Maserati GranTurismo MC GT4
1957 Maserati 300 S

Some great stuff there. Fiero and Raptor added due to their appearance in the first season of TGUS, perhaps? Having watched it on UK BBC, I hope we get the US test track as it looks much more fun than the UK one.

 

[Terronium-12]

The Monster?

I'm sold on that alone.

 

[Melting Brains]

Great cars! The Ford Escort was on my wish list Yay! I also love the VW Scirocco and the Chevelle!

And I guess with the Monster Sport SX4 we also need Pikes' Peak as a track now

 

[t.o.]

Some nice stuff in there. I might have to get this one up. I like that they seem to be putting enough cars to create different races and have more variety in them. I'm kinda confused on the constant Scirocco's though.

Ooh my god, this list is badass. The Monster, Maserati 300 S, Alfa Romeo, VW, and Ford Escort are on my list of cars that I can't wait to drive next week. All of the cars this month though are really good.

 

[VXR]

Really will wet myself for the Raptor with its extra lights and other aero options.

Escort = BDA = Perfect for me.

2011 Monster Sport Suzuki SX4 - Looks like fantastic fun. 👍
2011 Mazda RX-8 R3 - Nice car, should handle well.
2011 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor - Meh, I'm not too interested in this one, but it might be fun.
1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS-396 - Again, I'm not that interested in this car, but it could be a nice sounding car.
1977 Ford Escort RS1800 - Fantastic! The rally legend comes to Forza!
1981 Volkswagen Scirocco S - Seems very low-powered but with some tuning it could be fast.
1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio Verde - Very, very nice. One of the prettiest Alfa's ever made.
1988 Pontiac Fiero GT - Meh, never heard of it... looks quite ugly.
2010 Maserati GranTurismo MC GT4 - Very nice car, should provide some good races.
1957 Maserati 300 S - Nice, this is good competiton for the other vintage '50's cars in the game.

Overall, a pretty good pack with something for everyone. Well done Turn 10! 👍
