Forza Horizon 2 General Discussion Thread

[Populuxe]

It doesn't look like we are not getting a car pack next week there is no mention in this weeks week in review.

I think we're still getting it, but it might not be the first Tuesday of the month like normal. It's pretty obvious we're getting a Duracell car pack since they've already leaked the image.

FH3 is still about 18 months away. Just the announcement of FH3 is still about a year away, so I'm guessing - well, more like hoping - that we will get one more expansion to the game similar to Storm Island. Something to keep the money flowing in to PG/T10/MS during the lean summer months when people are tempted to leave the house and spend their money on something besides video games.

I don't really remember the list with FM4, but I think it was pretty diverse. I think FM5's was more a result of time restraint on a new console & now that it's laid out the foundation, T10 will continue to add more variety to models. They already do a nice job of at least adding different generations of a model. My thoughts, anyway.

FM4's was pretty diverse, but they do have a habit of dropping certain models - the base 360 and 430 disappearing, the (modern) Boss 302, etc etc. I absolutely agree that they do a good job fleshing out generations, though. But certain nameplates really do need more than one model per generation to be done justice, IMO.

I'm having trouble accessing my gallery at FM.net. I keep getting a 404 error and it redirects me from http://www.forzamotorsport.net/en-us/gallery/populuxecowboy to http://www.forzamotorsport.net/en-us/error?aspxerrorpath=/en-us/gallery/populuxecowboy. It doesn't matter if I use my usual bookmark or if I select gallery from the FM.net website. Anyone else having a problem with this?

I had this problem earlier. I signed out and signed back in, and everything started working fine again.

I tried that three times and it didn't work. I just checked back in and it's working again, so I guess it's fixed.

Just a note for USA players that the Cheetos Raptor from a couple updates ago is finally available via promotion.

http://wm6.walmart.com/BeSnackReady-xbox.aspx

Notes: Xbox One only, Walmart only, ends June 12

I wonder if this means the Nissan Juke might be in an update, too, since they went to the trouble of modeling it and including it in the game.

The Juke is available now, but the promotion is Europe-only.

 

[VXR]

Mainland Europe?

So far, we have:

2015 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28
1995 BMW M5
1991 Honda CR-X Si-R
1990 Lotus Carlton (free car)

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Oh yay, the 2nd Gen CR-X is finally coming to the xbone port of FH2.

 

[VXR]

The Lotus Carlton! I bought Classic Cars magazine yesterday because they had an article on it. I hope it's been modelled properly now.

It makes sense having it in the same pack as the M5 because they were rivals. Now for a cheeky Citroen XM to make a Ronin connection and I'll be in 90s heaven.

The link goes to a page saying removed, now.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Yes, one of the cars in the pack is a B5 Audi RS4 Avant!
I have been wondering when turn 10 would let me drive a B5 Audi A4/S4/RS4 again.

 

[VXR]

That is a good pack and today is a good day. Rather the later Eunos Cosmo, but I can't be mad at it.

The Carlton doesn't appear to have been remodelled, though.

 

[Eunosthedeer]

That's a really sweet car pack.

Woo hoo the Lotus Carlton is in the game

Should really stick horizon 2 back on, haven't even bought last months car pack yet.

Being playing more project cars lately.

So, I don't know whether you guys read the Forza forums, but I'll just leave this here:

I saw the trailer, and hoo boy, they surely nailed the soundtrack department. "City Lights" by Culture Shock and Bryn Christopher... I love that song so much. Too bad this DLC isn't part of the Car Pass... At least I can enjoy the Carlton, the world's fastest saloon car.

Now that's interesting... A Porsche expansion pack like with Motorsport 4, and allegedly contains the almighty Porsche 918... I just hope EA didn't ask the huge sack o'money like they did last time, though I'm unfortunately sure they did. Still, this leak really caught my eye.

No way.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Lotus Carlton........... (And Porsche leaked, completely overlooked them posts lol)

YES!

*insert party gif here*

 

[E28]

E34 M5? Lotus Carlton? Porsche Expansion?!! This game just gets better and better...

 

[ClydeYellow]

1972 Mazda Cosmo Sport 110 Series II

The JDM sport classics trifecta (Cosmo Sport, Nissan 240Z, Toyota 2000GT) completed in current-gen standards in the game I expected less to have it.

Also, Porsche in Horizon 2... Well, holy ****.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

I read further into the forza forum and checked YouTube comments on the new dlc trailer, and the Porsche screenshot shows to have the same URL, and both are 52 seconds long, meaning the Porsche vid may be fake.

It's possible that it could be a fake, but with that article I saw in the "Evo" magazine about Magnus Walker's Porsche 911 being modelled for Forza 6; I'm not so sure.

I mean yeah, it's crazy to believe the Turn 10 somehow got the license again, but that upload to me doesn't look exactly fake. Rather, I think it's one mistake that a Microsoft employee made. Either way, I'm waiting until Turn 10 says it themselves before thinking it's fake.

I'd think the other way around if I were you, expect it to be fake until t10 says otherwise.

Am I the only having to pay in game credits for the dlc cars?

Nope, not doing that. Sorry.
Seriously though, if you think I'll be disappointed and go on a rant or something; then you don't know me well enough. I wasn't bothered too much by how Gran Turismo 5 turned out. So yeah, Turn 10 confirming something I'm excited for to be fake won't sway me.

That's strange, I'm looking at the Lotus Carlton right now and it's free for me.

 

[Populuxe]

I hope the Porsche DLC is real. I also hope they finally give us a 356.

I restarted the game and it's still asking me to pay credits for them. ****.
