What DLC would rock the Forza world?

Agreed, it would probably be a Porsche DLC pack. That would be most welcome, although I must admit, I'm getting along fine without Porsche so far.

For me it would be a DLC pack containing the three 2012 DTM cars. I love my DTM!

Also, a switch in focus from car DLC to more tracks. Tracks really help make a racing game for me (it's why I bought S2U), and although Forza 4 has a decent track selection, with plenty of real-world circuits, I'd like to think that Turn 10 will give us more than one extra track.

The usual suspects such as Spa would be great, but I'd love to see circuits such as Brands Hatch, Portimao (Algarve), Brno, Red Bull Ring, Monza, Oschersleben and Zandvoort.
 
Real World Tracks.

This. All we have to do is look at any of the polls or topics about what tracks we want to know what tracks would "rock the Forza world". The most-requested track is Spa, of course, but some others like Bathurst rank pretty high up there and really any number of non-oval circuits would be well-received.

"Why you discriminating against ovals?" Because almost nobody wants them. When one looks at nominations for tracks we want, in any racing game, ovals receive so few nominations as to basically just be token suggestions. Looking to the GT Planet Feedback section as an illustration, road courses like Spa received thousands of votes (now they do have Spa for GT5 but other road courses have thousands of votes) while the best that an oval has got is "all major NASCAR tracks" with just 45 votes (compared to hundreds and even thousands for road courses and here we're talking about a group of ovals rather than just one).
 
Oval racing , with the right guys, can be extremely fun. I'm no NASCAR fan by any means but the group I race with have had quite a few oval racing events and , when done right, it's something special. So much going on on the track like temporary alliances, HEAVY strategy and the speed ;)
 
Spa, Bathurst, Pikes Peak (now that it's 100% tarmac there would be no need to change the physics). We already have enough cars, what we need is more places to race them!

I agree. Ovals exist and are popular in the real world because they have practical advantages over larger, twistier tracks. Those advantages are pretty much moot in a videogame.
 
I think if they released the same 1966 Volkswagen Beetle on FM4 that PD released on GT5, that would rock the Forza world, or my Forza world at least! That car is THE only reason why I still keep going back to play GT5...
 
If they brought out a respectable DLC containing some Open-Wheel, Night Racing, and a few more GT# class cars, I'd have to run out and buy it this second.

If Forza 5 comes out on the next XBOX I'd be shocked if weather and night racing weren't put in the game.
 
Different paint finishes like Matte, Pearlescent etc. Bathurst would be good... A younger model Falcon like the FG, BA, AU etc would be a nice addition as well as a proper Commodore. Not the bloody 7.0L thing we have now, I want the proper 3.8L V6 or 5L V8... Too much to ask for?

Oh oh oh and a Maloo ute.


Yes! Bring in the ecotec V6! Preferably in a VX commodore - I've always wanted to know how fast my family's ride would go round the n'ring :D
 
I think first and foremost Turn 10 should look at improving the wheel customization, firstly adding new wheels in the form of a couple of DLC packs. Here are my suggested wheel DLC packs I posted on GTPlanet.

Wheel Pack #01
- Enkei 92
- BBS LM
- Volk Racing TE37V
- Hayashi Racing Street
- BBS E30
- Sakura Cherry Blossom
- OZ Racing Ultraleggera
- RSL Cult
- Antera 109
- SSR Mk1
- SSR Mk2
- SSR Mk3

Wheel Pack #02
- Watanabe R Type
- BBS Air AI
- BBS CX-R
- BBS CF
- Rotiform ROC
- Rotiform NUE
- Rotiform TMB
- Impul Silhouette
- Impul Hoshino

After this, I would like to see adjustable offsets and tyre sizes, as shallow as it is, I would honestly be a lot more interested in Forza 4 customization if you could properly fill the arches, to me a lot of the cars end up looking a bit awkward as the wheels are so sunk into the arches. Lastly I'd like to see them improve on the painting system, splitting the wheels into categories, lip, face and in some cases, bolts.

Oh and let us have properly white wheels, please!
 
I, too, would like to see Turn 10 innovate their DLC packs. The wheels are definitely a good idea, but I think they should also look at body kit DLC. Primarily adding specific parts/kits from various manufacturers. Oh, and widebody parts, too. As for wheels, I'd like to see a pack or update that adds more stock wheels to the game and the ability to paint them.
 
Offroad courses to truly enjoy all the trucks and suv's in the game.

Being able to setup endless hot lap or drift sessions online (like GT5)

Volkswagon test track

More cars; I could easily come up with a huge list but that's for another thread.
 
I'm wondering if the added impetus on interesting visual upgrades on DLC cars means there might be a DLC for things like that on more popular models in game?
 
To go back to the wheel thing, I'd like to see additional OEM wheels for some of the vehicles and not just the ones that T10 modeled the car with. For example, since the swirled 5-spoke wheels that come with the BMW 850CSi aren't fully to my liking, I'd like to be able to switch them out for the more traditional BMW multi-spoke ones that you could also get for the 8 Series. There are other cases as well, but that's just the first one I can think of off the top of my head.

Swapping wheels between cars would be ace. Loved doing it on GT4. I'd fancy some new M5 wheels on the E92 M3 for example and the 850CSi wheels on the E36.
 
Most of this would rock the Forza world. Especially the top 3.

Current wishlist for Forza 4/5

1. I would love to see the weather effects from PGR4, F1 2011, or Dirt 3 in Forza 5.

2. Day / night would be nice on some of the tracks but it doesnt have to be on all tracks.

3. Allow us to load our setups online like we did in F2. We should be able to grab our car THEN pick the tuning setup. Not tuning setup then dig through the list of cars to find the car we want. Thats backward and very clunky.

4. Fully adjustable seat position symilar to Test Drive Unlimited.

5. Take the vinyl top of the 69 Camaro!! Or give us the option to take it off the car.
 
Am I the only one who wants MORE wheel upgrade options and MORE aftermarket and OEM body parts?? Would be great to get this in a patch update of some sort
