Forza Horizon 4: General Pre-Release News & Discussion

[Silver Arrows]

Wow, the lighting really has moved on. There's a real feel of temperature to it that past Forzas just haven't really showcased, including Blizzard Mountain.

Nice comparison. 👍

If anything, it reminds me a lot of how good it looked when it was raining in Horizon 2, where it really felt like those grey, dreary summer days.

Hopefully they actually fixed the weight glitch that they couldn't fix in H3 this time.

Hopefully they actually fixed the weight glitch that they couldn't fix in H3 this time.

It could “easily” have been fixed. The reason it wasn’t was because it would cause all sorts of issues with the Tunes that people had saved.

If somebody used a “broken” tune after a fix came out it would have the PI numbers of a low Class and the performance of a higher Class. That kind of thing greatly damages Leaderboard integrity.

Somebody on the reddit spotted the Fiesta GRC with BF Goodrich tire lettering on it in the demo

I did a quick google search and it doesn't look like the car comes with that tire lettering standard. Even the thumbnail leak doesn't include them.

Could this be a new customization option?

Reports that the audio in Forza Horizon 4 has an annoying grinding whiny noise deep in the mix probably stem from videos featuring the voice of Nick Andrew, such as this third instalment of AR12's mammoth interview with MS's Bill Dollar.

C'mon... someone had to post it. Plus, it's the weekend so playing the "count the ums" drinking game while watching him crash into things isn't exactly going to ruin your day.

Finally an M-Sport Fiesta in Forza. Imagine all the WRC/RX liveries

Also, I confirmed the #14 FIesta GRC with a tire letter on the Red Bull GRC website (which can't browse now, but hit by image search on google).

I just want to say

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

That is all for now.

Even if it is on the real car I hope this, as well as the Good Year logo being on a couple recent DLC cars in FM7 is a sign we will finally get the option for licensed tire lettering as a part of the livery editor.

IMAGINE HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE ME TO PORT MY IRN BRU LIVERY.



AFTER ALL, THE GAME IS SET IS SCOTLAND, NAY?

It gives me goosebumps just how badass it is.

Nobody's said anything about it yet, but I love that the song in the official trailer is "I Can See for Miles" originally by The Who, one of the most iconic British rock bands. Here it's covered by Surfing The Apocalypse feat. Chelsea Davis. I'm hoping the song lists are weighted heavily to British artists both old and new in all sorts of genres.

I'm listening to it on repeat at the moment. It's a respectable cover. 👍

It's in the same spirit as the cover of the Tears for Fears song "Mad World" by Gary Jules. It could be argued the dirge-like piano cover has been played out, but I think there's life in the style when it's done with conviction.

I love The Who but epic trailers should accompanied by epic orchestrations.

 

[PzR Slim]

Think this is my favourite shot from the trailer. I've walked up the majority of these mountains in the Lake District and think this area of the map could be epic.

Or better yet, switching from another car to the P50 while you're at the mountain's peak then seeing how fast you can drive (or roll) down the hill!

Where were you yesterday afternoon? I'll never get those seventeen minutes of my life back now.

Talk about a lame non interview.

In defence of AR12, I don't blame him for how useless that interview was. The developers, specifically from the T10 side, answer most questions like politicians and it drives me mad. Interviewers will ask, say, "is there new customisation parts for cars?", and then you get something like "Well, the thing with customisation is...." and then a bunch of sentences that usually don't really answer the question. Whereas with Ralph you'll get the simple yes or no you wanted.

Also, I find it funny that the answer about drag tyres in this interview was "we aren't saying anything on that yet, stay tuned for further information", When Ralph already confirmed them in another interview

So what was the point of hyping up Groove integration going back to Forza 7 if they aren't going to continue it with Spotify?

Though it is nice to see deformable mud. I wonder if that means there will be new effects for mud being caked on ala' Spintires.

I'm guessing it's easier to integrate a service you owned and used the same account info as XBL than one you don't own and uses completely separate info.

Someone from PG confirmed there will be no homologation feature.

Hopefully they can confirm there will be no locked cars, either.

Was pretty sure that it wouldn't come over considering how unpopular it was, and how poorly it was implimented in FM7.
