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.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      By Turbodoc · Posted

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
