Forza Horizon 4: General Discussion

[ShawnPhillips]

The Transit Supervan 3 is the F1 engined one, right?

They just mentioned on the Stream that Ford swapped out the F1 engine for a 3.0L V6 to make it easier for the press to drive, and that is the version in game.

 

[Terronium-12]

Yup, it's been known since launch (some people got it through mods or for compensation before it was released). I'm a bit surprised they didn't fix it before releasing it, but it is what it is lol.

Is it just the PO model? I don't remember this being the case on the normal Focus.

Boooo

 

[TheAdmiester]

They just confirmed on stream that the LFA is using a recording from an actual LFA. Can't really tell how it sounds under their speech, but I can already tell it's not just the Carrera V10.

Is it just the PO model? I don't remember this being the case on the normal Focus.

Yep, just the PO.

Rover SD1 is cool and Lexus LFA was expected sooner or later. Rest of the series is a big meh for me.

Rover SD1 is cool and Lexus LFA was expected sooner or later. Rest of the series is a big meh for me.

Overall I'm not thrilled how the leaked car list is becoming an increasingly valid source for future DLC additions. Here's why:

Remember the LFA wasn't on the list. Just because the list is mostly correct doesn't mean that's all we're getting.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

They just mentioned on the Stream that Ford swapped out the F1 engine for a 3.0L V6 to make it easier for the press to drive, and that is the version in game.

Hopefully the Racing V12 is a swap for it.

 

[ShawnPhillips]

Hopefully the Racing V12 is a swap for it.

It is, They said you can have both the Racing V12 and racing V8 as swaps for it.

 

[Nielsen]

Remember the LFA wasn't on the list. Just because the list is mostly correct doesn't mean that's all we're getting.

I did - That's why I said it was expected. Cannot say the same for every other previous car that isn't a Toyota or Lexus.

You're right though, but a developing pattern appears to be shaping up around the leaked list.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

It is, They said you can have both the Racing V12 and racing V8 as swaps for it.

Great, this makes me happy.
What PI is it stock?

 

[Populuxe]

They said it will be back again on Valentines day.

Oh thank god.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Great, this makes me happy.
What PI is it stock?

S1 Class, 828 PI from what I saw on the stream

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Pardon all the questions, but what's the handling? I'm at work so I can't view the stream sadly.

 

[GTvsForza]

Glad the Focus will be available all day today, so hopefully I can snag it tonight after work. And if not, then I still have Valentine's day.

 

[Nielsen]

I've already given up trying to watch today's episode of Forza Monthly. My ears bleed whenever the new host randomly shouts in every other sentence. Not sure why she cannot carry on where Brian's constant calm left off.

Edit: It's actually a different host this month, but the presenter style seems to be roughly the same as previous. Sigh.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Oh wow, nice crop of new metal this month.

 

[TokoTurismo]

This month's new cars is brilliant! I can not wait to collect and drive them all! FM8 is gonna be so sweet when the car list gets revealed!

Also, looks like Forza beat GT to the Lexus LFA. Welcome back old pal! 👍

 

[Silver Arrows]

They just mentioned on the Stream that Ford swapped out the F1 engine for a 3.0L V6 to make it easier for the press to drive, and that is the version in game.

Oh screw off with that.

Alright, you can put the original engine back in, but why not just go full hog with it?

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Oh screw off with that.

Fear not, it has the Racing V12 (essentially an F1 engine anyway) as a swap.

 

[deththrasher]

They just mentioned on the Stream that Ford swapped out the F1 engine for a 3.0L V6 to make it easier for the press to drive, and that is the version in game.

That's real dumb. They should go with what the original car had and was intended to have.

[strela]

Just got the Focus PO from the shop. Finally have all the PO cars 👍

That was really unexpected. I now have a complete garage with 271 cars. That took some time to complete.

 

[Silver Arrows]

That's real dumb. They should go with what the original car had and was intended to have.

More or less. 99% of people that know about the Supervan 3 are going to want it with the F1 engine. Offering it as a racing swap and going with the V6 out the gates just seems really...pointless? Nobody is going to want it in the V6 configuration anyway.

They said they models the cars as they are sourced. When they got their hands on it for reference data it had the V6, so that is how they modeled it.

 

[Famine]

They just mentioned on the Stream that Ford swapped out the F1 engine for a 3.0L V6 to make it easier for the press to drive

Which isn't true. It's a 2.9, and it was for maintenance reasons - "press" don't generally drive these cars, it's more for certified Ford personnel during events.

Last time I was at the heritage garage they were having issues even getting the gearbox serviced, as a stressed member in the C100 chassis.

But how do you model something that doesn't exist anymore?

It's like modeling the Mazda Furai and expecting it to look like something else than this:

Creative liberities.

I'll absolutely still drive it, but it just kind of weird.

Forza beats GT on many points... It's not even funny anymore. Three months of Toyota, and the LFA is already back! Meanwhile, GTSport...

 

[GTvsForza]

Can't they just update the FM4 model of the Furai?

 

[willbsn13]

Can't they just update the FM4 model of the Furai?

They can, but the real question is; will Mazda license it?
