Just to point out that I already know Nero - Two minds before Forza Horizon 3.

Driving on the other side is gonna be weird as well

Having played Euro Truck simulator 2, intersections is going to be annoying for me. I alwayd wonder how people from those countries manage to drive on other parts of the world? In real life or video games.

Gotta admit that games, movies, videos...etc is one of the reasons why I even know about some songs or bands.

Is this one of the few games where a Land Cruiser is included? The lists so far is diverse and I love to see more.

 

[notsofast]

It'll be interesting to see what Surfers is like to drive around without real life traffic

I have it on good knowledge that the Rivals mode is getting some pretty big overhauls.

Taking a little inspiration from FM6, crashes (wall riding is the main culprit) and rewinds now invalidate either your lap on a circuit or your run on a P2P event.
(P2P's weren't explicitly said, but it's obvious they will be.)

For one youtuber (the one who told us on the team Facebook page) this is excellent news as he'll be looking to claim more number 1's than in Horizion 2.

I'll give an obvious hint as to who it is, his video had Facebooker's Back-to-front on what was real and what was Forza.

While we are on the subject of hipster'ing, I also knew this song before it appeared in the gameplay video :

 

[GTFan24]

So, when do we expect the soundtrack to be revealed?

It takes less than five minutes to get used to it. If it took any longer, I'd worry about a driver's competence.

Look right. Look left. Look right.

Drivers on your right have right of way.

 

[Populuxe]

I'm an American who was in the Air Force and stationed in England for two years. Trust me, it's very easy to get accustomed to driving on the left.

After doing some research I almost certain that those snow capped mountains are Falls Creek. After a quick Google search for the Kiewa Valley (I'm Australian and I can't say that I had even heard of the Kiewa Valley, how lousy of me haha), the third photo I looked at featured snow capped mountains in the background almost exact to ones seen in the gameplay.

After reading, I found out that one of the major settlements of the Kiewa Valley is Falls Creek, one of Australia's most well known snow destinations.

Whether or not it will be playable in the game is a whole other story, but imagine a snow park with maybe some jumps and half pipes as a 'playground' area, that would be a heck of a lot of fun.

 

[TokoTurismo]

Oooo. ( *.*)

I hope such a place is in FH3, as it would add more diversity into the game's map. Wow!

You don't have to exactly be Nostradamus to know this is coming

Love that and Rob has his E30 aswell,loving every minute of this now.(as if I wasn't before!)

White X6 looks like a Panda.

I wasn't the only one who thought that.

 

[Rob192005]

I know there are those that will disagree with me but I have to admit that I'm not exactly disappointed over the disappearance of in my opinion one of the most boring (if solid and dependable) manufacturers in the world.

 

[Marqus]

Yeah, I natually wouldn't miss them as I have a dislike for front-heavy and FF cars and VW is full of them.

 

[BoneSawTX]

I'm in the won't miss them crowd as well, usually only used them if it was required.

 

[LumpiestFish]

Little but bummed not have an old Kombi and Beetle but apart from that I don't really care all to much.

Reliant Supervan III

I wonder if we'll see a Austin/British Leyland/Morris Mini at some point as well. I can already imagine what the DLC trailer would probably look like.

 

[Rob192005]

I know they're Robin's,but you get the idea.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I really hope that the developers reveal the reason for why VW isn't in FH3. I don't miss them too much, I'm just curious on how they dropped an entire manufacuture that they had the license for since FM1. It just seems strange to not include them. Also, I doubt it has to do with the emissions scandel, I bet it's something else.

 

[-Fred-]

Back quite some years ago, circa the turn of the millenium, Honda had forbidden anyone who developped a racing game using "real-world" locations that could imply illegal actions (ie street racing and what not, a la Kaido Racer/Need For Speed/Midnight Club/SRS, more or less the equivalent at the time to Forza Horizon) to use any of their cars in those games. Wonder if VW is now doing the same thing, after last year's terrible NFS.

i'm guessing it's a VW decision

ok this + isetta (hopefully) will be a win

Looks so much better in videogame than real life! hahaha

This is the most plausible theory I've seen so far (though in fairness all the others I've come across have been either directly or tangentially related to the emissions scandal). In Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero, all the cars were unlicensed and named for their manufacturer chassis codes (e.g. AE86, S14, DC2, etc.), so there were various Civics, NSXs, Integras and so on in the game in all but name; by the time TXR 3 came out, Genki had acquired most of the "obvious" manufacturer licenses...except Honda, for the reason you mentioned.

What's the list of cars that don't want to give AR12 views/hits?

I like the way you roll. And no, that wasn't a pun to the Reliant. Oh no maybe it is, I'm sorry! Try here.

 

[INEEDNAWZZZ]

I really hope they add more silly and hopelessly slow cars in through DLC. A Daihatsu Midget (original or the 90s variant) and a Peel P50 would be perfect.

Not too fussed about VW being gone really, although it is indeed confusing.

 

[Lameonade]

Aztek please.
