Forza Horizon 2 General Discussion Thread

[Igano]

I am wondering why the car list is 200 when Forza 5+DLC minus the road racing cars is above that. If you add the new cars from FH2 shouldn't it be around 250?

 

[Marqus]

Don't count the racing vehicles 'cause they won't be in Horizon. Not counting those, "Over 200 cars" sounds about right.

Not every car in forza 5 will be in horizon 2

@Marqus race cars only accounts for about 20 cars

That's what I am saying, if you count the cars the number should be somewhere 250 (with the new cars that FH2 will have) why did those extra cars got cut since they are not road racing?

Forza 5 has over 300 cars with the DLC. So without race cars it's probably like 270-280.

Since I am not going to measure exactly, it doesn't matter the exact number if it's 250 or 280. My point is why are not all cars been transferred (except the road racing from FM5)?

DLC?

 

[Igano]

So DLC from previous game is not transfered to the next game (even if it's a horizon)?

 

[United6694]

205 GTI anyone?

Hey, that's what happens. Even with all of it's DLC, the original Horizon didn't have all the road cars from FM4. It's to be expected I guess.

 

[Igano]

It's kinda weird though. What could be the reason I am wondering?

 

[Marqus]

Something nefarious, I'm afraid to guess.

Because they will want us to buy the DLC cars......AGAIN.

DLC?

Yup.

The same reason they took a lot out of the first and added some back in as dlc, this is not new.

It's not necessarily dlc cars they remove; any of the cars are potential victims

 

[yabiggoose]

I believe this image illustrates why they DLC already existing cars.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Looks like cars that were in horizon/ fm4 that weren't in fm5 are making a return

 

[Gerarghini]

Accidentally posted this in the would you rather thread.
For FM5 could we do matte decals on chrome paint? I don't know cause I don't have 5.

Nope, all the decals are gloss

I just noticed this is RHD. So British-spec rather than German-spec. Are there any significant differences other than which side of the car you're sitting in?

FM4 was on two DVDs, so I think FH1's limiting factor with regard to cars was its single disc, not to mention the space taken up by the detailed world. I assume disc space isn't an issue on the XBone. It might involve varying license agreements among manufacturers.

 

[FosterG]

The photo mode ops are going to be endless in this game!

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Hopefully there are parking lots to do cars and coffee shoots.

 

[INEEDNAWZZZ]

Starting to really like FH2's car Roster

Kind of wish some of the new vehicles would show up as DLC for Forza 5 mind you

At least they're a dead cert to come in to FM6.

Still a month away. Arrgh, it's too much anticipation!

Actually it seems quite close

It's more than a month for us Brits. Euro release is the following Friday, October 3rd.

Hopefully (since it's digitally distributed), there won't be a similar embargo on the demo. Hopefully, there will actually be a demo.

I think it's September everywhere

Unfortunately not:

 

[FosterG]

Then comes Project Cars and Driveclub (no PS4, not yet anyway), good stuff.

Yeah in Aus it is October 2nd.

Hopefully the parking lots will be modelled properly, so that they don't retain the gravity/slope data of the landscape that originally existed before the 3D mesh was flattened for the pavement.

At least, that's my theory on what happened in FH1, for the popular "hellaflush/lowrider" spots that also resulted in surreal vehicle behavior.
