For a hefty 1600 MSP!

 

[Matt Emmens]

Good News !

 

[Peter Vermeulen]

that's a hefty price.

 

[Peter Vermeulen]

read the article and will go for the package achievement points (nomnomnom) + extra events (hoping for tracks)

 

[Dazmaniac]

Approx. $20 for the Porsche DLC gets you................ (info from Eurogamer)

The pack, which releases on/around 22May introduces 30 Porsche's, with 23 of them returning from Forza Motorsport 3 while seven are entirely new to the series.Ten achievements will be included with the pack. It also introduces a new, bespoke career mode built around Porsche. It's not yet known what cars will be introduced by the pack, but the 23 Porsches previously featured in the series include the Porsche 962 and, of course, a selection of 911s.​

​

Turn 10 also added....

"We kept talking to Porsche, and we kept talking to EA - no-one wants to take Porsche away from the fans. We kept talking and talking until we found an agreeable situation, and now it's win-win. We've got Porsche coming into the game in a big way. EA's satisfied, Microsoft's satisfied and Porsche's satisfied."​

Yes I'll bet they're satisfied. IF 200,000 buy it, that's a cool 4,000,000 for cars that were probably already mostly prepared before launch .... I am a cynic ...... It's coz I'm old!!!

I think the pack would only be worth its price if they would've added ALL Porsches..

This just ridiculous, looking that 23 of the cars are just copied over from FM3..

It still means many porsche are missing as we'll only get 7 in return for 11 losses..
But we still didnt have:
Any 356, 964, 928, 924, 968, 1st gen Boxster (986)..
Newer models we didn't have seen yet cuz they're too new:
918 Spyder, new 911(991), new Boxster (981)

Not sure about the newest Cayenne (958)

We're lacking many classic race cars like the 917k, 908, 962 etc..

Got as much chance of winning a code as winning the lottery...
(not mathematically but you know what I mean...)

You've got to be in it to win it!!

 

[Alex Townsend]

Indeeedio!

Needless to say I've completed what is required of me...

2011 911 GT3 RSR will be available! I feel another championship coming on!

 

[Carl Demetrius]

Yes I'll bet they're satisfied. IF 200,000 buy it, that's a cool 4,000,000 for cars that were probably already mostly prepared before launch .... I am a cynic ...... It's coz I'm old!!!

agreed, T10 not getting the licence before the release of Forza 4 has worked out pretty well for them, I don't think they would have lost too many sales(if any) with Porche missing from the line up but they will certainly sell allot of DLC that includes them despite the high price. I will be buying the pack though despite the cynical way it is being sold to us.

With the changes to the physics and handling of Forza 4 over 3 I am looking forward to trying these cars out, in particular the GT3 cup cars and the RSR which already had a unique feel in 3 and are going to be even more fun in 4

Just remember guys, if you had the season pass, i know it's run out, but just in case it messes up again, get the sample car first before you sepnd the 1600 points.

 

[Chris Bell]

When is it out??

 

[Alex Townsend]

22nd I think

I like your thinking but I doubt they'll fall for that one twice

Yeah I know, but worth a try though

For only thirteen pounds, you too can add a whopping collection of 30 rather similar looking virtual automobiles to your virtual garage. Drive them on your favourite virtual track, realise that these virtual cars aren't much different from the others, get bored, and then choose another car and never use the pack again...
