[Skreamies]

@TheAdmiester

Just a list of the various cars spotted:

-1985 MG Metro 6R4

-1992 Mitsubishi Galant VR4

-2013 Mini Countryman Dakar

-Unknown truck with “TRX” on grille

-Unknown Ford truck

-Audi Quattro A2 (possibly just new mods for the Sport Quattro)

-Unknown red hatchback (clickable link) (Looks like a 1980s Ford Fiesta, doesn’t look similar to any existing in-game car)

Good list, everything is looks awesome!

Good stuff! Just to clarify, although I’m sure most here prob know by now:

“Unknown Ford Truck” = Ford Dakar Ranger

“Unknown truck with ‘TRX’ on grille” = Robby Gordon Stadium Super truck

And they got the 6R4. BIG WIN THERE.

Am I the only one that thinks this is one of the coolest trailers in the history of Forza?

Out tomorrow for #ForzaHorizon2 on #XboxOne, the ‘Storm Island’ expansion DLC will cost $19.99, or $9.99 if you’re a Horizon 2 VIP.

NICE!

[MemoryKillGG]

If that’s an 1980’s Fiesta then HELL YES!

ALSO.

50% off for being VIP? SWEET.

My only small concern is from the video, the new land mass doesn’t look all that big…but perhaps the total area is actually larger, guess we shall soon see! Looks really fun, and that “most requested car” barn find is tingling my interest…another CAPRI? A model T? Maybe another truck or rally car for the old times…im not up to speed on what would be most requested, hmm!

Looks great cant wait!

I SAID THERE WOULD BE A MAP EXPANSION! I heard that it would be switzerland, but no one believed that there would even be an expansion. I TOLD YOU ALL!

You told us all what? That you were wrong about Switzerland and made a guess about a map expansion that thousands of others did as well?

Also this expansion… Fictitious location with offroad racing and trucks, literally all uninteresting for me regarding FH2. Alps would have been cool with snowy roads and new supercars, but this? No deal.

BADNED is strongly hinting that the red hatchback is a MK1 Fiesta, so we can add that to the list.

1976 Ford Fiesta

I would just melt omgggg <3, if that is what the barn find is (pretty good chance with the model/year) then, wow, friggin’ awesome!

I can only hope the captured the spirit, feeling, and ofc the ENGINE SOUNDDDDDDDD of that glorious tome of hatchback retro awesomness!

So much goodness can come from this “expansion” both in terms of new lands, and new ideas! Not getting ahead of myself, but I hope this is just the first of few “land expansions” that really show off what can be done with the new hardware, in terms of scope, scale and new ideas. This ofc I would guess, is not coming to the 360 so, that just proves the focus should be on what the X1 hardware can really achieve, the crazy weather effects look awesome, if the game still runs solid 30 like it’s doing atm then wow, awesome job guys!

Confirmed as not part of the season pass: https://twitter.com/ForzaMotorsport/status/544573859035635712

[Mr_Willbertsin]

Also looks as if there will be new rally body modifications and kits for existing cars, not sure whether that is performance mods like FH1 or just visual mods.

Would be nice if we got the suspension raise kit like FH1. I think we already spotted the aero mods on the Quattro in the trailer, too.

Yes! One of my most loved parts about FH1, the rally upgrades were great fun, really hope they come back, especially the raise kit - makes so much sense for this DLC

[DAGnoFEAR]

Really-who cares about the costs?
Happy to get new tracks,cars,barns,events… 9.99 for dozens of hours…c’mon…
Yeeehaaaaaaw!

^ Ralph Fulton said that the barn find is one of the most requested cars in a Forza game, ever. All of the big rally/truck vehicles have been revealed, the Galant was in Forza 4, and the Quattro was already in, so that only leaves the 6R4 Metro and Fiesta as the barn find.

It’s almost guaranteed to be the Metro 6R4 considering it’s new to the series and it was recently spied in that news report that was posted in the WIR last Friday.

Sweet! So, does that mean it’s coming to Forza 5 too? Seeing as it’s clearly pictures in the F5 showroom? Or perhaps it was just an engine test, like, they put in Forza 5 first to test it then convert it to FH2, after all both games just use a different “type” of “forza physics” but the core is the same, just more sim-cade for FH2.

Man…an MG Metro…lol…brilliant. I’D LOVE IT if they added the “stock” versions of the vehicles as well as the “extreme offroad” versions, that would be brilliant.

Hmm…maybe this red car: http://i.imgur.com/JyXrwfK.png

EDIT

Scratch that. just watched it in 1080p again and noticed the front window detail, yep, IT HAS TO BE a MK1 Fiesta, which is awesome!!

They were probably just testing it. I doubt we’ll see any more DLC for FM5.
