Well its already been confirmed that it was a typo its not the only one since they also misspelled Daytona.

I know, but the error is clearly a typo or English to Japanese vocal mistranslation. Japanese to English isn't really a possibility. No Japanese would confuse 50 for 60 and even non Japanese with the most basic grasp of the language would not think roku-ju was go-ju, where as the phonetics on "fifty" and "sixty" are very similar for Japanese listening to american English, so its likely that the mistranslation occurred over the phone or Skype call

Well its kinda ironic that more info about the game was released on the Japanese X1 website first since it will not sell more then a couple of thousand copies there.  I'm just hoping that some of the people that buy it there will make some great paintjobs for it like they did for previous games.  I would have expected this info and the Porsche leak to be kept under wraps until E3 since they didn't even make any anouncements on the franchises 10th anniversary on May the 3rd.

Sounds better than Forza 5 although 26 locations is still a bit low, especially if that includes the test tracks and fantasy courses. Project cars has 31 locations and that already gets repetitive. At least it has a bunch I didn't know yet.

I'll decide after the full track list gets published. Weather and time of day are very much appreciated, waited long enough for that. I won't expect it to look as good as DC but hoping for better effects than project cars, should be possible with less cars on track.


Well it will also have over 450 cars and more then likely also have Porsche at launch so I highly doubt it will get repetitve as fast as Project Cars if all the tracks from 5 return it will already have more then two layouts that are missing in Project CARS the slighly extented version of Road America and the two shorter layouts and the classis layout of LeMans without the two speed lowering corners on the Mulsanne straight.

I don't care about the number of cars, as long as the selection is varied I'm happy. Project cars is varied enough, it's the track recycling in the career that gets repetitive. I would never get a season pass for cars only, for extra tracks instantly.
A couple of karts, historic, rally, nascar, sports, f1 and le mans cars is fine for me. Whether I'm driving a chevy or a porsche, I don't really care tbh.
Isle of Man track for cars, somebody make it happen :)

50 fps possibly means, unlock frame rate like The Witcher 3.

Well the selction will be varied they added open wheel cars in Forza 5 and since Daytona is one of the tracks I'm pretty sure they will add stock cars and from the third pick we already know they will add more GT race cars.  As far as tracks goes it would be great if they added some classic layouts of tracks that are already in the game or tracks that they bring back like the long version of Spa Francorchamps, the classic F1 layout for Long Beach, pre WW2 layout of the Ring and the long layout of the Hockenheimring.  Isle of Man is way to long to be included in the game and would eat up to much data with all the content that has been announced so far it will already be close to a 50GB game since the first one was already close to 40GB with all the DLC.

I really really hope they bring back endurances races. Some slightly longer races in general would be nice, as the required 2-4 laps in every career race really gets on my nerves, but I could live with it if they just bring back some actual endurances races. Don't think they've had any since like Forza 2. Damn shame

They always have monthly online endurance races and with more locations they will have more of those.  Not really a fan of endurance races especially ones lasting over 2 hours or 500 miles.  For fans of endurance races they should probably increase the number of laps you can do in free play mode to up to 100 or more depending on the track and also bring back timed races up to 3 hours and distant races up to a 1000 miles in that mode.  And for those that perfer doing their edurance races online they probably should have custom lobbies with the same options.

Ya I know they have those, but I'd just like to see some back in career mode as well. Doesn't even have to be super crazy long ones, just maybe like 40-70 laps depending on length of the circuit would be nice 



Chris Hu on 07 June 2015

A couple of those I could handle as long as they don't go overboard with it like GT5 did where it takes over 100 hours to clear all the endurance races in both A and B spec mode.  Also I'm hoping the career mode will use all the tracks (locations) and all the different layouts for each track which hasn't been done before.

If that is adjustable everyone should be fine.
I rarely have time for even one endurance race. At least in the two hour region. On the other hand, 10-15 laps on a normal track or 3-4 on the Nordschleife would be fine for me.

Adjustable career edurance would be the perfect solution of everyone would be nice if that happens.  It would also be nice if you could add or delete certain tracks to the career mode.
