I'm sorry guys but the car list is keeping me from getting this game. Well at least at launch. To suddenly axe half of the cars, most of which were cars people requested in the Jalopnik packs, is unacceptable.

This is a joke right? Please tell me this is a joke... That is a real chunk of great cars they just tossed away. My guess is hey look day one DLC! Give me more of your money!

Well at least it doesnt come with 25 versions of celicas 30 miatas 40 silvias 50 skyline's all passed from gran turismo 4. Id want to delete all those. I never use them in gt5

Yep I'm very disappointed. Forza would be the only reason for me to get an xbox one anyway, so there's that too.

the decision to not spend 560 bucks on a new game system plus forza in favor of spending 60 bucks for GT6 is looking better every day.

Seriously Fiveza was the only next gen game i had serious interest in.

They've literally gotten rid of all my favorite cars, but worst of all they got rid of the Lancia Stratos and Delta Integrale. How dare they. This is too far, Turn 10. You put those damn cars back in the game. Or else.

One more comment: those driving physics better be damn good if they're getting rid of EVERY CAR THAT I LOVED! WHY DOES EVERYTHING I LOVE LEAVE ME?!?!?!?!? /goes off to cry in corner

Forza 5 is this gen's version of PGR3.

rushed for launch, cutting tracks, cars and features but with shinier graphics.

I'm hoping they turn it around with a shit tonne of free DLC.

xxstich666xx > beardsbynelly - Rikerbeard
11/12/2013 at 17:40

Turn 10 isn't exactly know for Free dlc. Hell the DLC pass is still $50 but only gives you half off.....

Why did they rape the GT/ALMS car lineup? I thought T10 had a multi-game agreement with the ALMS, even with TUSCC being formed that shouldn't be affected, right?

Right, but not all of those cars were in FM4 from day 1 and I'd also hope that they didn't just copy and paste previous car models from the old system, so it's not like it's a drag and drop kind of thing. New car scans for a new system. Also, the first car game on any new system will never be as good as the last car game on the previous system. Elements of FM4 were taken from FM2 and FM3. This is a clean slate.

That said, I'm not buying at launch either, but not because of a small car list, but because it's expensive to buy a new system and new games. I'll probably have to wait a year or two.

I'm not even remotely interested in buying FM5... As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing that could convince me to buy it at this point. They dropped the ball big time...

Same shit they gave us with FM4.

xxstich666xx > Random Commenter

I'm just going to wait for a couple months and then get it used. Microsoft botched this entire launch up SOOOOOO badly.

Sony is willingly giving PS4s away early whereas Microsoft is banning anybody who got theirs a little early due to Target's shipping error. Couple that with the whole DRM and used games debacle and forced Kinect....

Its Just like Horizon. Tons of hype to be an awesome game and then... lack of cars + crapy cars = terrible game. Turn 10 makes me sad.

ugh I know right.

I have the limited edition preordered but they're making it really hard for me to justify a day one purchase. I can hardly justify an XBone at this point too.

I know I'll get one, I just might wait it out a while.

I really liked Horizon, though. I didn't like the lack of cars, but I got over it since they kept all my favorites. Now, they've taken everything I love. But I already have 5 pre-ordered so...

A lot on that list was on paid DLC. The same will happen with FM5?

You can call me stupid, but..

A racing game without a Supra is a bit wrong. Plus, no CLK GTR?

Pessimippopotamus > CAR_IS_MI
11/12/2013 at 19:13

That's not the point. The point he was trying to make was that a lot of cars were carryovers from FM2, even. That's how Forza games had an insane development schedule. Turn10 will now have to remaster a lot of cars to get that number back up to 500+. Sure, it sucks, but it's an understandable predicament for Turn10. There were 230 cars in FM1.

I'd just wait for FM6. Turn10 would make more use of the new console architecture by then, and enough DLC cars would've been introduced enough to be put into the main release, like from FM3 to FM4.

CAR_IS_MI > Pessimippopotamus
11/12/2013 at 19:17

This goes back to the whole 'do it right the first time' bit. Yes, a new console is coming out. Will the "Forza Faithful" not go for Forza if it doesn't release shortly thereafter the new console comes out? I know I would rather wait for the game to be done right, then cut out 50% of the games content to have it done now.

Pessimippopotamus > CAR_IS_MI
11/12/2013 at 19:18

No you wouldn't. And not Turn10 either. Not after the GT5 fiasco.

xxstich666xx > Aya, Almost Has A Cosmo With Toyota Engine Owned by a BMW.
11/12/2013 at 19:45

I can understand the CLK GTR as it's a Forza 2 model and that's an EXTREMELY hard car to source.

11/12/2013 at 19:52

mmmm

For me a racing sim like this needs one or two 90's supercars that have no any electronics whatsoever. Plus, i think they can contact Mercedes-benz to source one of those. Or some kind of sheik in Dubai.

I'm not going to bother at all... If they're going to screw us on launch by giving us only 200 cars, and save all the others for DLC, screw them. And what is it, 17 tracks? Screw that... I don't buy that we'll get more via DLC, they told us there would be track packs for FM4, and did we ever see them? Nope. They shafted us, entirely. I'm done with Forza/Turn 10. Never thought I'd say this, but if I do get a next gen system, it'll be a PS4, and I'll get Gran Turismo 6. At least they haven't skimped on cars, or tracks... Plus, GT6 has a track builder, and I've heard something about there will be a cellphone app that will collect GPS data to turn your favorite drive into a custom race track.. Polyphony Digital seems to have knocked it out of the park with GT6, whereas Turn 10 has dropped the ball with FM5.... Not only have they dropped the ball, they dropped the ball, dug a hole, dragged over a coffin, threw it in the hole, climbed into the coffin, and started nailing themselves inside... IMHO.

CAR_IS_MI > Pessimippopotamus
11/12/2013 at 21:20

I totally would. I mean, not 5 years, like GT5 took, but if they were like "hey were working on it and we want it to be the best for you so it will be 6 - 8 months from the launch of One", Id be cool with that.

Pessimippopotamus > CAR_IS_MI
11/12/2013 at 21:28

Yeah, as a fan, we all do feel that way to an extent, but it wouldn't be easy for MS and T10 to go that route. First of all, they know that even for Forza fans, it's a hard sell to ask them to buy a whole new console to get a new game. Even before they can even do anything, though, they need to make sure that the new console has basics covered at launch . Wii U and other consoles before it made it all too apparent that you need launch titles that are worth the money for new buyers, not just hardcore Forza fans, but for all buyers. Turn10 is also owned by Microsoft, and it's one of the most reliable way for MS to guarantee a quality AAA game at launch. It just makes business sense.

Save yourself the trouble Loudmouth - GT6 is for the PS3.

Random Commenter > retom7
11/21/2013 at 13:30

I was erroneously thinking that GT6 was also going to be released for PS4... and in that case, that's even better, because I can pick up a used PS3 for much less than the $400 it'd cost for a PS4...

Still can't believe how badly Turn 10/Forza screwed up.
