It's rumored to be coming in DLC. Forza's insider guy, Badned over at Forzacentral says it will and he pretty much always right.

xzzy posted:All I want out of Forza's replays is a goddamn free camera. Oh god yes please. I spent like 3 hours yesterday to get enough alright footage for a two minute video. Edit: I also realized that the Fanatec is not "Forza only", so I installed Richard Burns Rally, which I hadn't played since 2005 or so on the PS2. And it's as hard (and awesome) as I remember. Actually, it's even better nowadays, since there's a big loving mod out there (RSRBR 2011) that adds new cars, tracks and all kinds of poo poo. You can even run all the original tracks with a track surface (gravel, snow, tarmac) of your choosing. It's awesome. Get it.

Forza 4 can't model cars with open-air suspension. Unrelated, but has anyone found a site listing the maximum tuned PI of cars? I've been hunting but had no luck.

I want Caterhams! Is that why there are not F1 cars? The open wheels? Also while we are wishing for things I want dragsters. The big Top Fuel 350 mile an hour kind. But I want to do road races. That would be funny. If you could make it onto the back straight of Le Mans, you could win easily. If you could make it.

Those would be the balancing act you would pay for going 100 MPH faster than everyone else. Though yes, 60 GPM (not MPG, GPM) would necessitate frequent pit stops. Also, I applied to GISH as projecthalaxy.

Different thing altogether from nitromethane. But you are right, I do wish more games had it. Made for great strategy, especially on longer races when you might empty the bottle.

So let's see. I'm a VIP member who bought the LCE on day one and I bought the season pass on day one. I was given the 1M, so I don't need that. I also had access to the Ship Bonus Cars, so I don't need them either. You're telling me that despite having season pass, I still have to pay for this car pack, which amounts to a whopping four cars for me? Nice.

Ether Frenzy posted:That's great, well done. I'll watch more of those, the angle where they're coming down the corkscrew looks TV-replay-realistic. That part is why I got so fed up with the camera system in Forza that I stopped right there. Since the camera always follows the selected car, you can't even have a simple shot of the whole field driving by, you have to stitch it together from at least two shots (first car and last car, if the field is close). But since the camera also moves a bit, they won't really fit together, so I had to fudge it with the camera shake effect.

Okay, I have a request for those vinyl makers who have a bit of time on their hands. Would any of you guys be willing to make me an Independent motorsports group sticker, or the letters for Entropy Racing? http://independentmotorsportsgroup.com/ http://www.entropyracing.net/ I really suck at making vinyls I have discovered. Thanks in advance to those who are interested.

I also had access to the Ship Bonus Cars, so I don't need them either. Could be worse. I did all that plus bought all the other preorder cars on ebay (for about $15 each). 560MS points is a steal!  I believed these preorder cars were the last bastion of "exclusive", but I should've known better. Everybody else DLC's their exclusives at a later date, why wouldn't T10?
