Forza Horizon 2 was just announced today. To no surprise they also showed the cover car which is an amazing pick in my opinion. Now last time this happened, the SRT viper was the original horizon cover car. After all the hype T10 did something nice and came out with the free SRT viper download for Forza 4. Anyone think there going to do the same with the new Huracan and F5?
Well here is a quote from the IGN article about Horizon 2, “In making the leap to Xbox One, Forza Horizon 2 will include hundreds of cars, according to Playground Games, headlined by the 2015 Lamborghini Huracán.”
I’m fully aware of its debut in Horizon 2. Try to read my posting again - this time, however, a bit more carefully. Based on the question at hand, it shouldn’t be too difficult to decipher. And … go.
There are actually people who are fairly new to the Forza franchise and as such might not realize that there is some difference between Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon. They are both discussed, advertised and have forums at www.forzamotorsport.net after all, so its not that far of a reach to see how I misunderstood your post. I was only trying to share information I had found.
That thought crossed my mind after posting but figured it would be clarified, thanks.
I don’t see them using it as the cover photo car for Horizon 2 and then offering it in Forza 5 before the release of Horizon 2. So my bet is that if we do see it in Forza 5 it’ll be after the launch of Horizon 2.
I would not be surprised in the slightest if history repeats itself, but I’m not expecting it. I’m suspecting the Huracan will appear in a regular paid DLC pack, such as the July pack.
I can see why everyone has there own opinion. Even though the SRT was the horizon cover and we had early access in F4 doesnt mean the same would go for the new lambo. But, in this case wouldnt we all like history to repeat itself lol? At the absolute worse im sure if it isnt a free download, it will atleast be a payed dlc. But time will tell. Just let it ride for now.
I wonder sometimes if the rights to certain cars can be shared. playground games obviously was allowed to use the SRT viper in there game. Are they allowed to share that right with motorsport? I mean they share everything else right. So why not make the lambo a dlc car. If it doesnt happen oh well. We can still look forward to the July dlc.
Don’t be confused. Playground Games is developing the game but is using licensed assets that belong to Turn 10 Studios. Everything, as you mentioned, is susceptible to being shared; so, we’ll most certainly see the Huracan in Forza Motorsport, its just a matter of when.
Would be nice if it would make it and the Renault Clio Williams that is supposed to make it into a Forza game still hasn’t made it into 5 yet either if it doesn’t show up in next month car pack I guess we will see it in Horizon 2.
The huracan is very nice refresh. Thought not changing the powertrain is foolish its still a very nice new car. The new mustang is another sweet looking car. Its all in the eye of the beholder. Plus its NEW gives us gamers and car enthusiest an opportunity to race n tune and customize to our liking.
