Thanks for the reply B. Not quite a yes or no, but I think I got the gist.

So... to confirm: FM4 track DLC is coming, just not the tracks most requested *coughSpaHurstcough*?

I can live with that. Anything is better than nothing!

I'm now thinking sponsored track DLC. Maybe a major manufacturer's test track?

Yeah man, Spa and Bathurst are like the worst tracks ever. I mean going up and down all the time, who wants this shit ? Beside, Eau-rouge, what an overrated corner. Also, who wants to go to Australia, there are only kangaroos, koalas and a number two F1 driver there.

I don't read German but I suppose "Quelle: forzamotorsport.fr" is the source so I went to FM.fr to check. It's probably about that article. They don't say anywhere that it's going to be released this week-end, they just reiterate that it will be released this summer in fact. They just say that at the Forza booth at the 24h of Le Mans, you'll be able to play with the Forza Horizon E3 demo (damn !) and for the first time ever with the Viper in FM4.

No SRT Viper DLC this week! The only way to play the new SRT Viper in Forza 4 this week including the weekend is at the FM tent in the Village, located in the paddock of the Circuit the 24 Heures Du Mans.

So it canīt be long. If itīs not coming this week, like Badned says, maybe short after Le Mans. There is no better time for this dlc. SRT Viper ftw!

The wait for the SRT Viper Bonus Pack won't be that long anymore, there is still some little work left to be done before the pack is finished. ;)


BTW the following is not Viper related and also bit early to talk about since there is no release set atm but they have something in the works for you car lovers out there.

But arrrrrggghhh, it's frustrating. I actually feel like the 'car' isn't so special anymore. How many more can I have in my garage before it just becomes another motor.

Anyways, I'm ill, back to sleep.

Forza Waypoint app ?

A 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO DLC pack with Autovista experience would be good too.

I was dead serious, a well done Forza Waypoint app could be amazing.
I'm talking things like :
- Forza news
- Car news
- Motorsport news
- Forza historic
- Forza achievements and stats of the player
- Informations and photos on manufacturers, cars and tracks (think GT5 museum and car descriptions meets FM.net FYI segment meets FM manufacturers texts)
- Official videos of all Forza (even the videos included in the first FM LE)
- Videos from the community (shinnn's videos for example)


BTW, I hope Turn 10 is at the 24h of Le Mans capturing some Group C greatness and the new cars we're missing in FM !

For the ALMS cars, they probably got access to all cars as part of their licensing deal.
It's probably a combination of laser scanning, modeling from photos in-house or outsourced and maybe some CAD from manufacturers ?

Have they still not fixed the issue with nobody except the people who bought the Porsche DLC being able to see the Porsche's? Racing online can already be a frustrating experience and not being able to race closely with others cuz a quarter of the cars I'm racing against are blacked-out Jetta's that have different dimensions in reality is really just keeping me from this game. I still pop it in for like half hour/hour once in a while to put in some laps or something, but otherwise this is borderline game-breaking for me.

I just dont understand why Turn 10 overlooked something so obvious, why they haven't addressed there's even an issue and why nobody is allowed to discuss it on the FM.net forums. I remember there used to be a time when the community was listened to and taken care of....

Sorry if I sound crabby, but this is now the second of my favorite games that have been ruined recently by baffling developer issues(cant play Battlefield anymore cuz the patches are like 2GB's(WHY?!?!?!) and I simply dont have room for the new one).

BADNED, you mentioned that a full Holden license is being worked on for the future.
Is it looking bright?
And, with a Holden license, would that also include the HDT brand..?

So far looks good but still nothing final. HDT requires a seperate agreement and it is on their agenda to get it. ;)

Yes indeed. Captured and posted those yesterday during the first qualifying at FC

Yeah, they have the exclusive broadcasting rights and signed an indefinite extension just recently.

They are airing 22 of the 24 hours on TV this year, which is a nice step up from last year. I'll be streaming Eurosport's coverage to get through Speed's (numerous) commercial breaks and for when Leigh Diffey gets on my nerves. :p

Seriously though, I'm thoroughly jealous of Eurosport's commentators.

You the man!!

Having a full Holden license is one thing but to even contemplate a HDT license shows that the devs really are a passionate bunch!
I really hope they try very,very hard for the HDT license. Please, in the name of all things holy, please exhaust every avenue..!

Dammit! I got rid of cable a while ago and was hoping for some way to watch the race.

SHIT! I watched all 17 hours they showed last year on the big screen and then had Forza hooked up on the small screen right next to it.

I dont think I'll be watching much. Maybe check in once in a while to see who's leading the GTE category and see if the Deltawing is still running. I dont expect Toyota to finish and Audi are a lock-in for at least the top 3 spots in LMP1.

That sucks, man.

Le Mans is the only reason I subscribe to Speed; once a year, for one month only.

I always watch the entire race, (or at least the first 20-odd hours before dozing off...), but I'm not nearly as hyped this year without Peugeot to make things interesting up front.

The DeltaWing will be fun to watch, at least, and as long as the GTE Pro Corvettes take the top two spots on the podium, I'll be happy.

Any wheel users here having issues since installing the latest dashboard update?

I'm having problems with losing all ffb, the clutch sticking half open and the shifter going nuts. Thought the wheel itself was playing up until seeing a thread on FM. Can't see MS rolling out a fix anytime soon.

Time to blow the cobwebs off the PS3.

Soon, as in late 2013...hope so!

All HDT Brock's are more than welcome, even the HDT Magnum Statesman, but the most popular HDT Brock would have to be the VK SS Group A 'Blue Meanie'...and here's mine..





Yes, it's a replica lol. I'm not made of money you know..

I seriously thought we would be driving the classic Holden and Ford stuff for FM4. But that's fine, next gen Torana, Monaro, HDT Commodore and Falcon GT will be worth wait....
