Hey there! Has there been a big focus on supporting sim racing wheels or is the intention for this game to focus on controller usage?

A: Forza Motorsport on PC natively supports popular racing wheels from Logitech, Thrustmaster and Fanatec. We also support the DirectInput API, enabling players to plug-in and play with a much wider range of hardware than before, including wheels and devices that aren’t listed below. This level of device extensibility means Forza Motorsport is accessible to more players who use custom hardware setups than ever before.

With the promise of more content to come after the conclusion of the Car Pass, it must be asked - will that content be distributed to players the same way Motorsport 7’s content (eventually) was, in that it is immediately released to players and available free of timegates or objective gates? Or will Motorsport 2023 implement the same model Playground Games has for Horizon 4 and 5, and use FOMO mechanics to gate content behind limited-time objective chorelists, with that content promptly becoming unavailable to players after the designated period expires and until Turn 10 deems it suitable to release said content again? The choice of distribution model that Motorsport 2023 chooses to use is going to play a big role in many potential players’ decision to purchase or even consider this game, myself included.

Looking at the title being “Forza Motorsport” and not “Forza Motorsport 8”, does Turn 10 plan to support this new title with fresh content for longer than all previous titles, or are we, just, restarting the title count back to 1?

For vehicles that rely on boost to take off from a stop at the start of the race, will there be the ability to build boost during the countdown so the car doesn’t die?

EDIT: June 13 livestream showed the player revving the car during the countdown, but not confirmed if “boost launches” will be available.
