So lame that the extras within the Ultimate edition can't be purchased separately. I want the blue console but that's missing out on that extra game content

isn't it just the fast and furious pack, or is there more? i plan on getting the game for free with all the bestbuy reward certificates i earned buying a laptop

VIP pack and the season pass. I'm sure they'll be available separately at some point, but as of now they're listed bundle only, and separately I'm sure the VIP pass will be more expensive than what it's actually worth, if FM4 was any indication.

The season pass will definitely be available separately, probably around launch time. Expect it to be $40 I imagine, just like the one for FM5. (Though it's ~$20 if you buy the Ultimate Edition)

Never pre-ordered a digital title on the bone before, do we get pre-loading? My internet is loving abysmally slow, and I will flat out kill myself if I have to sit and watch, what, 40+gb crawling down my Sky "broadband" on release day.

Pre-orders get to play a week early, so you'll be okay.

I've decided that Long Beach is the New York of this generation. It's going to be absurd with 24 people.

I got to play some FM5 over the weekend for the first time in awhile. Also played some Horizon 2. Pretty excited for 6 to come out. I'm getting the ultimate edition. Even though I have slow and lovely Internet. Hopefully, the download will be available before Labor Day weekend so I can start it before I'm gone for 5 days.

I hope they make the races in 6 a lap or two longer. 2 or 3 just isn't enough to work my way up through the pack of drivatar assholes. I spend the first lap fighting to get ahead that the first place car gains so much more time that I can't even get close to catching up. Usually I can grab 3rd and still get gold... But still. It's gonna be even worse (for me) with 24 cars on track.

I think instead they are giving you the option to turn down the rear end in a top hat level on the drivatars this time. I wouldnt count on more laps. Sadly, I think people want to pass cars, not race them.

It would be nice if racing Drivatars meant something other than "dodging" them.

Here's the list of cars, which I'll add to the spreadsheet as well. They also noted that they're having Mark Skaife (retired, V8 Supercars Hall of Fame driver) do voiceover "for the Mount Panorama Circuit" so I dunno what kinda stuff they've got for the specific tracks planned, but that will be new as well.

This brings the car count to 445, including all the pre-order and bonus cars. I wonder if the "450+" includes those, or if that's the number for the base game. I guess we'll see!

One thing I'm hopeful for is that the DLC car packs include more new additions to the Forza series instead of updated X360 era cars like F5 and FH2 did. It seems they've exhausted much of their catalog from the previous games already to make up the roster for F6, so ... one could hope.

I can't even tell which ones are 360 era cars. The car models back then we're good enough that it's at least not a Every Gran Turismo Since 4 situation.

Do you have to pre-order the super duper edition? Or can I just buy it when it comes out, pre-ordering is stupid especially for something thats not even a physical copy.

Its the $100 edition. Its an easier pill for me to swallow becuase i was going to buy all the DLC anyway (which i've done for the last 2 forza games and felt i got my moneys worth)

You can just wait and buy it, but one of the benefits of the super duper max edition is that you may play the game early. 10th instead of 20th I think? So you should buy it before the 10th.

Otherwise you'll be all :smith: while the thread is all :rice:

Waiting on a IRL car to be delivered and had to get the ultimate in order to help pass the time 5 days earlier. That and I buy most of the DLC on the main Forza games and missed Forza 5.

Now that I've done that watch my car show up on the 9th.
