I am glad to see that at least the team behind Forza Horizon are listening to their core fans and adding and fixing problems from the 1st Horizon. I enjoyed the 1st one and wanted some more things fixed, which they have done most of them. Weather, finally. Now the Barn finds and other things (such as discount signs if they are back) should be random placements. I hate that after the 1st day you can or someone else can go online and find where everything is hidden. They are hidden for a reason, go and explore. I spent hours finding the last few discount signs that I missed. Barn finds where awesome, but easy and not enough of them.
After watching the videos from Gamescon I went and pre-ordered FH2. [Mod Edit - Abbreviated profanity, profanity and profanity that is disguised but still alludes to the words are not permitted - D]
The recent DLC stuff that Turn 10 and Playground has done is the only downside to the game so far that I see.
I wish to congrats Playground on their efforts to support the community that made them successful, not ignore them.
Now release the Demo from Gamescon like you did with FH. Will get more people interested and others who have pre-ordered happy to play it.
