Would Pikes Peak be a worthy replacement? The Tarmac version of course. I’d love that with all the engine and drivetrain swaps we have now, you could create some time attack monsters. Speaking of engine swaps, I really hope there’s some different ones in FM6, but the fact we can carry over our tunes from FH2 makes me think there won’t be, unless of course we have the swaps from FH2 + new ones, that’s completely fine.
Kaido reminded me of the anime Initial D where Takumi Fujiwara defeated other drift racers in races on Mount Akina(behold my bad English). Some part of the circuit is quite similar to the roads of Mount Akina. It’s where my sweet memories are as a drift racer(even though I’m not a good one). Now it’s gone. There aren’t any tracks that can replace Kaido in my opinion. So, T10, if you heard the voice of your loyal fans, bring Kaido back! We don’t care if it’s a dlc. Just bring it back to us! It’s a paradise dor drifters and I’m sure bringing it back will help FM6 gain popularity. Bring Kaido back! Have to say ot 3 times because I’m really serious about this. I’m not joking here. Do it T10!
Over at GTPlanet (this may have been first leaked on ForzaCentral), the list of tracks and whether they have night/rain have been leaked.
I have also noticed that Bathurst, Road America, and Sonoma have “sunset” as a time of day.
Overall, it’s a pretty realistic list. Some of you might whine about track x not having night or rain, which is okay, but with global droughts and the inability to access certain tracks at night can hamper the scanning of a track during the nighttime/when it’s raining.
Not sure if it’s sunrise or sunset. I think that’s quite realistic, but a little bit disappointing as GT6 has Bathurst at night and Monza in the rain perhaps? Just want more tracks to have different conditions, but overall I can still accept it.
kinda bugs me that its sunset is the only option for somes track guess its mandatory for a T10 game to blind you at some point (Im looking at you Forza 4 sedona full R) in all seriousness its a bit disappointing that many track don’t offer night or rain but I guess a little is better than none and at least Yas got night, Im speculating that T10 could later update some tracks at some point
Could be like rio, you can see the wave splashing, the jumbo jet landing and helicopters,fireworks at night ect, im assuming to make the track feel alive.
Wet weather conditions are to the point that a race would usually be red flagged, and night racing is only actually held on certain tracks in the first place. So all in all, while I’d like more night and rain tracks, this is a pretty realistic list.
And they end the article with a comment about how much they look forward to hydroplaning at night. Verge knows nothing as usual.
One of the biggest turnoffs in FM5 was the sun glare at certain corners on just about every track. Spa comes to mind, Nurburgring GP is another. Hopefull we can choose to race on cloudy days or during times where i dont have to contend with the same annoying sun glares.
I know but only 6 ? You can race at night at Road Atlanta why not in Forza 6 ? Road Atlanta is one of my fav track and i rly thought i can make night-races on it.
I’d guess because they didn’t have the time/money to send a group down there to model it at night. I’m with you, I thought it would be far more, at least half. I’ve also wonder if they hold back some features/content knowing that they’ll be releasing another version in 2 years. I’m sure they’ll never say that’s what they are doing, but there have been a couple things missing or lighter than I would have expected in which I thought it was possible.
And yes, Road Atlanta is fantastic. But all that being said, FM6 looks great; but it already has me wondering about how great FM7 will be.
