You aren't a fan because they make photos look better?

Oh, I'm fine with there being a feature that does that, but I don't like it myself. I like to take screenshots that are accurate about the game's visuals. If I see a part that looks graphically amazing, I don't want to artificially inflate those visuals with a photo mode.
 
Looks like digital preorders are set to open on Tuesday. They updated the listing that we were able to pull from Mehdi's gamertag and it now says "To preorder this game select one of the editions from the Xbox Store"

Also it's going live at 12:01 EDT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So that would be ready to play Tuesday morning UK time. Sod it, not waiting until Friday even with my amazon £40 version
 
Broke down and ordered a new Xbone just for Forza Horizon 2. I hope I won't be disappointed. That launch trailer was really, really good.
 
never been a fan of racing games. Watched this launch trailer. NOW I WANT TO PLAY THIS!!! Jealous since I only have a ps4. DriveClub doesnt seem as good as this, they dont have epic pasisonate trailers like these Turn10 guys....

You don't have a 360? If you can find one cheap, the first game alone is highly recommended. I'm not big into simulation racers, but Forza Horizon is, I believe, the greatest racing game of all time.

Good job you don't play trailers though, right?

The graphics! The game looks great fun with loads to do and tons of content but I'm not fooled into thinking that trailer is representative of in-game gameplay!

Ashad Mamood said:
Majority of the posts are in awe of the graphics which clearly aren't showing in-game gameplay.

Triple post? Triple post. Man, you're on a roll there new guy.

Ashad Mamood said:
That trailer is all replays and photo mode. If you actually think the game looks like that in actual gameplay then I can't help you. I've seen plenty of the game to know that! Didn't mention gameplay or content!

Which bit in the trailer???

Double post? Double post.

First time I've seen a triple-double in a car thread.

This is how you reply to multiple posts in a single post. Live and learn. :)


I cannot wait for this game. Only thing that would make it better would be if we could get out of our cars and walk around them freely in first-person at car club meets in-game. Holy shit would that be rad!

P.S Ashad - Our media team apologises for making such a kiss ass trailer ;P (hehe, just messing with you!)

Ahhh shit how did I miss it? Ashad is really just a faux-troll shill for T10 to create more hype by downplaying the game, thus triggering further discussion and defense of how great the game will be! Genius guys, genius.

I jest

Buy digital or retail... buy digital or retail... hnnng
(usually, the place where I preorder games, sends them out a few days earlier... so probably retail)
 
Preordered at Spielegrotte.de just now.
Btw - there is a day one edition:
D1 Edition - exklusiver Content

Die Forza Horizon 2 Day One Edition beinhaltet drei zusätzliche Fahrzeuge mit einem exklusiven Day One-Design, sowie einem Tuning-Paket von Turn 10:

- 2014 Ford Fiesta ST
- 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392
- 2014 Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG

Was tempted to go digital for this. But then Shopto often gets disks out to customers a day or so before release day. And I quite like my unbroken line of every Forza game on my shelf.
 
When does the demo up for EU people?

Don't think it will be possible for me to play it before tomorrow anyway :/
 
I don't know, the trailer looks the same as ingame graphics to me, just more flattering angles and accurate ToD choice.
T10 does have a history of using high poly lod0 car models in trailers (models you don't see ingame outside of particular game modes) but other than that, their trailers have always been rather honest in regards to assets and IQ (with the exception of FM5 reveal trailer which was criminally misleading).

Recent gameplay videos from ign and gamespot look amazing, i'm so tempted..

As I wrote on the other thread, it seems there are also special offers when you go retail.

In Austria I already seen 3 different Pre-order-Boni:

Gamestop: 2008 Ferrari California
Mediamarkt: 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera
Game3Game: 2013 BMW M6 Coupe

Curious which Cars are exclusiv in other countries.

This is so true. DC's racing just looks a bit bland and it doesn't have the atmosphere of this.

Proud that this is devved by a UK team.

Gutted that I haven't got an XOne to play it on (360 only for me, familiy means I can't justify massive outlay!)
