So, i'll miss out on 3 of the most iconic cars ever, if I go standard?
Bastards!
i'm sure they'll let you buy them later for 20 dollars, they'll probably want 30 for the porsche pack too

The only ones you will miss in the Standard Edition will be the VIP Car Pack cars.
I hope they release the LE here.
new build for Gamescom:
A decision if VIP will be made available later on as DLC like in the past has not been made yet. ATM it tends towards no but that does not mean much now.i'm sure they'll let you buy them later for 20 dollars, they'll probably want 30 for the porsche pack too
BADNED, any plans for retailer specific preorder cars again?
Dear Turn10,
Im extremelly disappointed by your LCE, as someone who has bought all your Forza Motorsport Limited Edition I think this one is by far the worst, there is no book, no physical contents other than few decals, no flashdrive, no keychain, etc. This looks as cheap as Forza Horizon LCE.
I dont even see a manual in Forza 5 LCE, how its that even possible?
The whole point of this edition is to be a collector´s item, not a slightly better but over priced thing.
Welcome to most limited editions today...
And about the manual, Microsoft games don't have a manual since two years ago.
And not even a frigging picture of how the 2014 Audi RS 7 Sportback on the cover looks ingame to go with the LE announcement.
Way to go T10
lol
Classic Turn 10 marketing.
Seriously.Their LE's have really taken a nose dive.

I am in the same boat. Don't want to change discs.I wanted to get Forza 5 digitally, still might. Hopefully there is limited digital edition.

Change disks with other games or with just F5? Games are blu-ray now, doubt you'll have to change disks for content from the same game.
Have you seen Batman? Uncharted? Halo? Gears 2-3? Saints Row? Skyrim? theres lots and lots of games with cool limited edition out there.
No manual in a LCE edition its pure cheapness, I hate publishers pushing us to digital because they keep taking things away from the physical format.
LCE versions should be a love letter to the fans, I think Forza 2-3-4 LCE were that, especially the third with a classy box and items.
Yeah I am planning on going all digital this generation, so I wanted to just buy Forza from the live store. I don't mind waiting for it to download, but the option to buy the dlc would be appreciated.Probably talking about switching to other games.
You should take into account the price of those LE's you are mentioning. All of those are more expensive (or at least, they were in Spain) than the Forza 5 one. Batman Arkham City was 100 €, Uncharted 3 was 90 €, Gears 2 was 80 and 3 was 90 (and a whopping 130 for the Epic Edition), Halo 4 was 90, Saints Row 4 is 95, Skyrim was 100, against the 75 that costed the Forza 3, Horizon, 4 and 5 ones(Forza 2 LE costed 70, but that was 6 years ago, game prices went up when IVA [taxes] went from 16% to 21%).
And about the "going digital" thing, you better get used to it because it's the future, we like it or not. I'm not saying it's for the better (that would be debateable), but it's happening for lots of reasons and physical media is destined to disappear.
Past Forza Limited Editions had books, flashdrives, keychains, etc AND also the VIP and DLC, all of that for 80 usd, if you think about a flashdrive or a keychain are cheap things, maybe a little map of Spa and Nurburgring pointing out tips to improve your time, maybe a disk including a making off , a sound track etc. All those things are really cheap and make the editions better.
Plus it doesnt need to cost 80 usd, they could release a third version limited that cost 120 usd for most hardcore fans, you know, they ones that spend 600 usd in a wheel alone.

Instead of ranting on NeoGaf, copy pasting it here and ranting more you could spend time on the game and improve your driving abilities on these tracks and you wouldn't need maps. You will get faster.
That didn't even cost extra either!
Name names. I hope it wasn't BADNED.Wow, this FM.net mod is horrible
...
Thats answer was pretty douchy.

Maybe might be an idea to bring it to the attention of Helios. I'm sure community managers wouldn't take too kindly to their community being treated like that.
After FM3 T10 will never see the color of my money again. Worst PR in all gaming.

Forza 4 its a great game and a big improvement over Forza 3, do you buy games because of their PR?
Plus is really far from the worst (IMO)
That's the mod who locked the wheel thread. Not suprised.

Well, when they use deception to promote their game, yeah, I got a problem with that. I don't know if you are familiar with it, but FM3 marketing was a big fiasco at the time (2009).
What wheel thread? No link needed, but brief summary will do

FIXED.
Theres a reason I abandoned the FM.Net community just prior to FM3 release. The mods are a part of it. Gatekeepers of info, its not free to discuss anything outside of what they deem.
Lmao, wow. That sucks ass.
Are they officially tied with FM / Turn 10? (I don't think so, but don't want to make assumptions).
As much as I'd love for PD to have a community manager, I think them using GT Planet as a proxy of communication is better than what those managers seem to be doing. The general tone seems to be completely different between the two.
Its the official forum lol.
My Lord, I remember my days there, was to the run up of Forza 2 being released. New gen and all the buzz. I got really annoyed that when I started asking questions like, will Forza 2 allow a photo mode/ save to USB thing like GT4 did, the thread would either be locked or the community had this "Turn 10 knows best" mentality. I got jumped on many many times even when Forza 2 demo started locking up 360s and they soon got RROD'd. It was still a mystery as to why it was happening then. I started a thread about finding a way foward, if Turn 10 could notify MS what the hell was happening. I got a reply from Chespace saying if your 360 locked up, its about to die! How on earth did he know they were related? Heat=RROD, yet it was maybe 2yrs or so before MS even admitted there was a RROD problem.
Then, in the Forza 3 days, the community just stopped caring for positive critique. I just remember new guys feeling unwelcomed. Guys like FordGTguy didnt exactly take critique well. After Forza 3, I just said screw it, the place was dead anyway and the admin locking threads that were in my opinion giving positive ways of improving the games future iterations was the final straw.
So now, new gen. New lies. Im not going back but it saddens me to see the mods on FM.Net are still the same.
Anyways, agree with you. I look to GTPlanet as the official channel for info also for that reason
Wow, sounds like a shitshow.
And yes, having GT Planet as an entity that's completely unrelated to PD means they are fully capable of giving criticism. Fucking hell, that's why SO MUCH was fixed in GT5!!
But it seems to be so much different on the Forza forums. Really? Locking a thread about racing wheels. It's a fucking self proclaimed SIM and they are locking a thread about the concern for wheel support? The fuck? Do they even care?
Glad to see I'm not the only one who dislikes the attitudes of a lot (not all - but a lot) of the FM.net moderators. The worst offenders generally come across as holier-than-thou sycophantic pricks with condescending demeanours, quick to abuse their 'power' with thinly-veiled bully-boy tactics. They are an embarrassment to the official forums.
Turn 10 used to be famed for listening to its community. Lots of people here recommending them for 'Developers of the Year' and all that.In any case, I can honestly say WE, the community, fixed GT5. What it is today and what it was Day1 is a huge difference. From in car views of some sort on standard cars, to car balancing and saving games during Endurance races, Im certain all our input will make its way to GT6 on PS4 one day too.
Wake up, T10 and MS, you would be surprized your fanbase knows more about the automotive industry and the way foward than you do!
With that said, the wheels not working is a big deal. You guys should try petition it. MS stopped production of the 360 wheel. Now without Fanatec 360 wheel support, should everyone go casual and play it with a Kinect type wheel? Thats bs.
