Forza Motorsport 7: Confirmed Car List

[ImaRobot]

I know I've said this multiple times, I'm complete opposite though. I have barely played FH3 in the last few months. To me you only need about 50 cars in FH3, because most of them all kind of feel the same when driving, that has to do with the terrain of course. The cars feel so different and unique from each other on proper tracks, like in The mortosports games.

I'm with you. I very much prefer the track oriented side of things. I like to tune my own cars, and with a lot of that not really being necessary in Horizon, it took a big chunk out of things. I'm competitive, and Horizon takes that feeling away from me, that's why I prefer Forza Motorsport.

That and the roads in the Horizon series haven't been that inspiring to me.

 

[xlDevontelx]

A lot (if not all) of Horizon 3's flaws lie in the fact that it is, for the most part, a very flat and repetitive map, like others have previously stated.

With that said, FM7 will be a very fresh gust of wind. Porsche from day one, the return of Volkswagen, amongst some cool new tracks and some new (and unannounced, but probably guaranteed) cars make this a must have for me.

Forgive me if I'm too much of an optimist in this context, but I'm having trouble seeing the downside to this future-award winner

Kinda underwhelmed by the car list so far, but to be fair that's how I feel about the game in general. More of the same.

Wow, that's the first

May I ask what about the game/car list is lack luster, in your opinion?

In my opinion nothing wrong with more of the same, but it feels like a constant trade-off when they keep losing important licenses. So in that sense it's more of the same nonsense. It's great that Porsche, VW and some FM4 cars are back, but it would be much better if they came back to join all big manufacturers in FM6.

I guess that's the downside to releasing at least one game every year. Not much time to seal every deal before the annual deadline.

When you can release such a polished game as FM6, more of the same plus a little new isn't so bad to me, honestly.

You could also turn it around and say: When FM6 is so polished, why do you need the next game when there's a trade-off in losing Toyota and Lexus? I get that losing Toyota isn't a big deal to some but most of the new to Xbox One cars hardly compensate the loss for me. Still a few car reveals to go before I'll make up my mind.

We'd be paying more in extra content each time than what we'd get if we bought a new game every two years. I prefer this method.

1.) Most likely around 100 cars more in FM7

2.) New tracks (specifically that one cool ass track in the desert )

3.) Thriving online community

4.) Frickin' free Porsches, for once



I know I've made up my mind

Just make Forza Horizon DLC Forza Motorsport compatible and vice versa. Problem solved. Then they could spend more time crafting new games and do it creatively.

1.) Most likely around 100 cars more in FM7

But many of these have already been tried and tested in FH3. Only 5-10% of those I'm excited to try on the race track with FM7 physics.

2.) New tracks (specifically that one cool ass track in the desert )

But how many tracks did we lose and how do the dynamic conditions really work? Too many unanswered questions for now, so bring on Gamescom. By the way, the Dubai track doesn't look like one I'll drive much.

I know I've made up my mind

That's great.

That doesn't really solve anything, because there will always be an influx of new content, still causing high prices for DLC rather than getting the next iteration made and released.

 

[xlDevontelx]

If you choose to look at the glass as half empty in every scenario, then I'm no one to stop you @Nielsen. All I know is FM7 is definitely coming home with me this fall. 👍

 

[Nielsen]

But you would get to enjoy the DLC in two different Forza series. Maybe I haven't thought it through, but ultimately I wouldn't mind paying for ongoing DLC if they released new and more thorough games on rarer occasions.

I wouldn't mind it if the current prices for DLC where much lower, but I don't see that happening. The jump from FM6-FM7 is introducing 200~ more cars, and at the current rate that can reach up to $200 alone.

 

[VXR]

But of the 200 cars added to the game, I'm severely disappointed to see things like the E60 M5, 06 Astra VXR and 05 Legacy return, no doubt with the same exterior models they had on the 360, which in some cases weren't very good back them. It's something GT5 and 6 get chided for, I don't think T10 can get a pass for doing similar.

 

[CSLACR]

Yeah between the lackluster car list, (like, it only has a wider variety than any game ever assembeled) and only having more track variations than any game ever assembeled, stupid 4k hogwash crap, and not needing 2 years of patches to be playable....
This Forza game looks like a bunch of the same old crap.

It doesn't even have Toyota!

(Yes, sarcasm)

Don't you think if they were the same models that were used for the 360 game that they would have been in FM5 and FM6? The fact that all cars have full Forzavista, something that even FM4 didn't have should tell you it isn't the same model from the 360 games.

Even if the bit about reused models turns out to be true, it's fair to say Gran Turismo reuses far more models then excusable. I feel I may have trouble saying the same when FM7 releases.

I think you're the only one disappointed with the return of those cars. I like the mixed bag that T10 is doing, bringing in cars ( including many favorites) from the last 6 Forza games plus with some room for new additions. It works perfect plus we have forzathon and dlc to look forward to.

I mean GT6 had that Suzuki that still had the model from GT2. I know a lot of people were peeved about it, but I am just glad to see some of the more "Normal" models from FM4 returning.

 

[Lancia Casate]

Stahp.... That would be a dream pack for me.

Well it has to be a Vip pack

 

[Ak1504]

Theres no old low poly car model in use on Xbox One thats for sure...

Ok, i'm in.

 

[CSLACR]

Oh, I didn't realize that anyone said that.

Nobody did, but boy, it sure does get old listening to people make non-complaints about this game.

Maybe Im just used to all the other racing games, where there's so many valid complaints, nobody has to fish the way they do with Forza games.

 

[-Fred-]

On the bright side of not having Toyota, we won't have to look at the SW20 MR2 and wonder in which parallel universe they found a car to model and thought, yeah, that looks okay.

And the "The player is adding the widebody kit, he/she must be making a rally car so let's lock the ride height sky-high!" Mk. 3 Supra.

 

[-Fred-]

Yeah, but having the ride height wrong is totally different to having a whole car modeled by a blind guy.

You mean in-game or in real life? IMO the SW20 is a beautiful car! The SW30 on the other hand....

In game. The car model for it is an absolute shocker.

As for people thinking I'm the only one to be complaining, what is there new and worthwhile for Xbox One players? I won't be getting the benefits of the One X version as I won't be getting one of those any time soon so to me, it'll be Forza 6.5. That's not worth £80 to me for cars I used extensively on the 360 with minimal introductions that aren't similar to what's in there already.

I agree with you, if you already own FM6 and FH3 then FM7 doesn't bring that much new interesting things to the table, certainly not if you don't have an X1X or high end PC to benefit from 4K and HDR.

My main racing game this fall will hands down be Project CARS 2, initially I planned to pass on FM7 altogether but with the deal for the Hoonigan pack for FH3 I decided to pre-order it anyway. I don't expect much from FM7 though other than an even bigger car collection game than FM6 already is. I do have a 4K HDR Dolby Atmos setup in my living room and since 100 EUR more or less doesn't matter at all at my age, I decided I might as well give it a try. It can coexist perfectly next to Project CARS 2, the latter will be for the realistic sim racing experience with qualifying, dynamic weather and different tyre strategies while FM6 will be fun to goof around with for the 700+ cars, ForzaVista and a few tracks which are not in PC2 (like Mugello). Who knows maybe this revamped career mode could be fun. While I do appreciate a game like PC2 without a currency system to buy cars, I have to admit I really enjoyed buying the cars, hiring the staff and upgrading facilities with currency in Dirt 4. So FM7 will cover that "credits/economy" aspect just fine as well.
