Pretty much an open-world racer with Forza simulation physics and mechanics.

I'M EXCITED.

Would be like TDU with proper physics.

Made in association with Playground Games.

E3 Demonstration (watch this for what the games about. (gameplay starts 12:00. first few minutes could probably be skipped).

I love the FM as well. This is an off shoot. I for one am excited for this providing they do what they say when say they are using forzas physics engine.

I love the idea of an open world simulator. I'm hoping this is it

Regardless... why does there need to be a newer version already? unless Forza is going down the Need for Speed route and releasing newer versions per year with a 'twist'... eh!

Its like the constant fkn release of Call of Duties... nerds cant hold onto their cash with this bullshit! :woot:

It's fixing the one thing that I think Forza lacks - open world driving FTW. TDU is an awesome concept, with Forza physics and development behind the concept, I'm looking forward to it for a bit of variety!

I can see this being the one thing I wanted from the other Forza games, a way to drive the cars that I spend so much time tuning and fiddling with without the limits of a couple of tracks. If it carries the same feel and features of the previous Forza games I can see myself playing the heck out of it, finding awesome bits of road and messing around with mates for giggles.

Yes... if it is true Forza physics in a GTA-type open environment... pure win. Traffic, cop chases (was it mentioned at all?).

Oh and i know it would never make it - but a Carmageddon unlock! hahaha

I have a feeling its gonna be fairly limited.

ie;

  • No cop chases (bad image for the car scene)
  • No traffic
  • Little/No modifying (mainly boring supercars, R34 makes an appearance in trailer)
  • A percentage of the cars we're used to seeing on Forza (see above point)

I hope I'm wrong.

But that doesn't happen often.

I'd have thought if it follows the Forza formula that mods would be a plenty. N what's the point of open world environment without traffic?

That short made it slightly seem like a cannonball run scenario to me... But not. Eh.

Wait and see... I'll hire like always before I decide to buy :)

theres no mention of cops. so im not sure (guessing not)

there is traffic.

id imagine that tuning and modifying would be the same as Forza.

and they mentioned that they took cars that people would want to take to an automotive festival. no one's gonna be proud of their Chevy Pinto/many of Forza's E class cars.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
