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.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
