As London has been confirmed to not be in the game I would love to see a London expansion with street races. It would be cool if the expansion was added onto the map directly without having to go through any loading screens, which is really what stopped me from replaying SI BM and HW
It is nice to see the Expansion Pass being thrown in with the Ultimate Edition now. When you figure that the UE is the same price as UEs before it, it really seems like an excellent deal now.
I’m sure I’m in the minority, but I would very much hate to see another Hot Wheels or similar expansion. It was a novel thing to do once. To me, the best growth of the game and the series is to really start bringing more upgrade paths and driving types.
Actual upgrades for drifting nd drag racing. Much like how Storm Island introduces the Rally upgrades. There’s been no new upgrades since. It’s time for something new and USEFUL.
The Goodwood Festival would be really cool as well as I he Top Gear track, but again, I would rather see both of these be something we can drive to and interact with, as part of the map. That to me is the only real reason to have the map be in a specific location. To be able to drive there. Otherwise it may as well be a fantasy map.
I’m excited but doing my best to stay calm and not expect the world.
I would expect a rally theme to one expansion much like storm island with its huge jumps, somebody mentioned Wales I think that’s very feasible. We will know by how much rally focused racing is in the base game.
The second possibly an urban area unlike any before based possibly around London.
If not then I hope it’s not some rubbish like hot wheels.
With the first expansion hitting so quickly, I kind if wonder if it might expand the new Horizon Life stuff rather than add an island. They’ve already mentioned taxi companies, perhaps buses would be another option? Maybe even have us driving around the underground? Just pretend there is one on the map - that would cut down on map assets as they seem to want to, and technically give a 5th season of just darkness.
They need to get around the problem of the expansions being totally removed from the main world as it drastically reduces their replay value. But really to do that they would have to change dlc practices, say to something like The Crew 2 is doing.
Isn’t the map based in Scotland? How do you think we’ll drive in the London underground, but then there were black cabs in the trailer so we might get to see London
