I think T10 blew their wad with track announcements already and the rest will be all the same from FM6. Though hopefully VIR makes it into the hoppers and leagues.

Project Cars just released their track list and I'll definitely be picking that up just for the environment variety. Classic Silverstone, Spa and Hockenheim

classic spa!? holy moly that owns

and a version of silverstone that doesn't make me want to blow my brains out, too? man i skipped out on pcars one but might have to get the second game.

Yeah the tracklist is easily balanced by my remembering how bad PCars 1 was at launch and how a lot of stuff like AI problems and starting grid bugs never got fixed.

I don't know why they need to make a PCars 2 for any reason besides they want to get away from the investment scheme that PCars was. Classic Spa was already in PCars, but they removed it when they did the full release. It was really fun, and it was bullshit for them to save it for a later game.

For the record, at E3, PCARS 2 was 100% better with a controller than PCARS 1.

The problem was it was still 40% behind how Forza 2 was with a controller.

It seems my quest to catch up on Forza has come to an end, I am now at the highest rewards tier possible at the moment and 100%ed every game in the series aside from FM6 and FH2. I have made many questionable purchases on this journey.

Is it at least better than Assetto Corsa on a controller? If it is, I may consider getting both since I'm actually not bad at AC with my pad. Better than R3E at least.

Actually, been at it a bit longer than that, I just didn't ramp it up to insanity levels until more recent months. For all games up to FM5, I did indeed go for 100%ing all of career and all achievements that were still possible or viable to obtain. Unnecessary :spergin: breakdown of my status for each game:

    FM2 - 100% completed nearly a decade ago.
    FM3 - Left at 920/1000 with event list half-completed for several years, now fully complete and should have all 1000 hub points... if it ever updates again.
    FM4 - 100% complete with purchased Porsche expansion, all but 4 now-impossible achievements. (actually 3 but heh, Kinect) Should have 1700 hub points but it refuses to read how many cars I have. 300 remaining points lost to the abyss of time.
    Horizon 1 - 100% complete singleplayer with purchased Rally expansion. Got every achievement that didn't involve multiplayer or the unobtainable 1000 club. (multi is still up but I really did not care to grind that.) Final Hub score of 1500, the other 500 also lost to the abyss.
    FM5 - 100% as far as the achievement list is concerned (forget the bonus events), working on last affinity achievement. 11 more days of daily play til max hub score. (Yes, my dumb rear end bought the tokens.)
    Fast & Furious - 100% that poo poo in like 3-4 hours.
    Horizon 2 - Maxed hub score and left on back burner at about 1/3 entire base game, half of Storm Island complete. May come back to finish after FM5, will not go for full achievements.
    FM6 - Maxed hub score and left on back burner with 1/6 total volume completion, all showcases but the endurances, and entire Nascar expansion complete. Will also not go for full achievements but will make One For The History Books the end goal.
    FM6 Apex - Almost maxed Hub score minus 15 points cause I suck too much to get Perfectionist. Close enough, screw this game.
    Horizon 3 - Total 2000/2000 completion, maxed Hub score before I really started this whole catch-up crusade.

So yeah, there's still some things I'm not really keen on doing, but my main driving force was Hub score. Did everything I could in the 360 games cause I needed every last drop out of them to reach Tier 11, but played it a bit more loose in the later games and only completed things up to the point they still mattered.

e: Actually now that I think about it, aside from FM2, half of FM3, and Horizon 3, it has been about exactly 3 months since I started. I don't consider badges/titles part of the progression, though, I'm not that crazy.

I can be selfish and say I want a non-M3 E30 in the game but having some kind of E30 325i would also allow so many people to use one of the most popular grassroots cars in Forza.

If you use a shifter and shift into 5th on the physical shifter controller on a car that only has 4 forward gears it will act like you shifted in to 4th. If you use paddles or buttons it will just ignore the upshift if you are already in the top gear.

And they don't make it anymore so you're looking at buying used or new old stock.

You're looking at just under $500 for the Logitech g920/g29 and shifter or around $600 for a thrustmaster setup.

In their actual announcement release, they say all Horizon 3 players will get it, including those on PC. Very misleading trailer.
