I thought the tracks in Forza 4 were already accurately scanned, now they're saying some were just plain wrong?

Forza tracks were never accurate... Nurburgring for example is wider and have 2.3 miles more than the real-one... the size of the cars on the track is off too.

True, I always thought that the tracks were too wide or the cars too small, it was too easy to make a pass.

Back on the topic of content, I hope it is because of a rush job and not to fall back into the original vision of converting games into services. It's great that physical copies are allowed again, yet if half the game content is going to be online only in DLC and season passes then it's essentially the same thing as before the 180.

I doubt we will see 200 more cars and 14 more tracks via DLC.  200 more cars maybe but 14 more tracks no way that is going to happen.  Plus since its the first game on a new console the is a good chance we will see a Ultimate Edition which will include all if not all the DLC contend like we saw with Forza 2 and Forza 3.

Can I make a joke about the cloud here? Oh wait just did. >.>; Either way I'm sure Forza 6 will be the more full package like 4 so people should just wait unless they are such big fans to the series that they'd die from a heart attack without it.

Or do what I did with Forza 2 buy it when its dirt cheap, bought it used only paid $2.99 US for it.  As matter of fact haven't payed full price for any Forza games got the Ultimate Editon of 3 new for $19.99, bought Forza Horizon new for $15 last Black Friday and bought Forza 4 used for $27.99 could have gotten that one cheaper but I'm glad I didn't buy the gimped esential edition that comes with only one disc.

Good idea

The lack of Nurburgring is insulting. The number of cars is OK imo. I guess more tracks will be added later on.

Probably not a lot more though hopefully the game will also have a event editor where you can switch out tracks since I will barely play it online.  If not I will probably pass on buying any DLC tracks.

Pretty much did the same thing for GT bought the first two new at full retail.  The third one used but I forgot how much it was I think it was around $30.  Bought the 4th one when they had it on sale new at Gamestop for $9.99 on black friday.  Missed out on getting the 5th one for $9 last black friday so I bought it at its regular price for $19.99 a week later.

But didn't they say forza was getting day one dlc on things they couldn't finish in time???? I was certain it made a big debate back in the days ???

Forza looks fucking amazing, I am astonished at how good it looks visually.
Though I must say the numbered Forza's aren't for me due to the lack of a stellar soundtrack such as Forza Horizons.
