TIMELESS

Yeah, I wouldn't worry... Kylotonn Racing the French developer behind WRC 5, 6, and 7, V-Rally 4, TT Isle of Man, and more, shall save us with TDU3! They do like to bring back retro IPs and Big Ben has all but confirmed it. Besides we thought TDU was dead and then came Project Paradise!

I think it would make sense to use a crowd-funding website so that the liability can be taken out of all our hands and the risk minimized due to the protections offered by such websites. I think people would be a lot more comfortable using the likes of Patreon than just sending money to a PayPal account that someone here owns.

This thread is so incredibly thorough and detailed, it's impressive stuff. You really inspiried me to go out and drive more cars, and cars I wouldn't typically drive. Usually once I find a car I really enjoy I stick with it and don't drive anything else, especially not something out of my comfort zone. And of course, awesome pictures Loek. Some of them really look like FH4 promo pictures lol

It's hard to comment on the physics with the go-pro mode, you really need to see the car moving around and how the suspension is moving and reacting to the environment. It would also help to get you a wheel to test with! lol

Imagine your dog could only run on 2 legs, he'd be all over the place. But instead, he runs with all 4 legs, so he gets a better grip on the ground. The same is true with cars. AWD means the power from the engine is sent to all the wheels, so it's not just PUSHing the car from the rear, it's also PULLing it from the front. I hope the dog analogy helps lol

:lol: I've been wacking my banhammer around more than ever recently, sometimes I just leave the odd one to see what they'll do next...

It's hard to believe LFS is still going with so much competition out there. I did always enjoy it though, the physics to me were near perfect. Good to see it's starting to catch up graphics-wise.

[quote name='Diablo']To be honest not really a fan of the the Alfa Romeo design, @TIMELESS it seems I have misconception about hybrid, so my apology after doing some research, Lexus hybrid seems pretty good will go test drive at a dealer near my lease end[/QUOTE] Yeah go check them out, I think they're a more realistic/practical option right now until electric cars are more developed and the infrastructure too. Let us know how you get on :)

Yea why not buy and dump in 3 years? There'll be a bit of depreciation but the majority of it has already happened. Lexus are usually a good buy and easy to sell on in the US when the time comes.

Pretty sure if you needed to find petrol ("gas") in the middle of the Mojave you'd have no issue but you'd be screwed looking for a charging station, for example. Then there's the fact that you're probably charging your eco-friendly electric car with electricity produced by fossil fuels, coal, etc not clean electric like solar, wind, etc. With a hybrid you would do just one though. Fuel it up the old fashioned way and the engine charges the batteries. You get better MPG, extended range, and full electric mode for enough miles for town driving.

But doesn't need to rely on an incomplete infrastructure. Pros and cons ya know. Now, plug-in hybrids, that's a gimmick I don't get.

What about a Lexus? Not full EV but hybrid, excellent interiors, great sound systems (even the standard Lexus ones), and a good range of sizes and car types (ie sportier car, big boat for cruising, SUV, etc). Would make me happy. @Microphone yeah shut up you.

Oh snap boss, congrats! Any idea about the ETA? @Loz That is amazing. @RobikV3 Lovely GTI dude.

Updated the OP with all the information I can come across right now. Hopefully there will be a more detailed press release soon :) I'm honestly most excited for the idea of taxing across the UK. That's the dream, right?

Welcome To Blighty, Mate! Yeah sorry... cliche, I know. Unbelievable. The location of Forza Horizon 4 is the UK? Well bloody 'ell I'm excited. As IGN put it "Playground’s Britain looks to me like a decade of Top Gear episodes brought to life," and what's not to love about that? But anyway that's not all that's exciting. Let's get into the nitty-gritty. Location: 'Beautiful, Historic Britain' - So far there's only confirmation of England and Scotland (Edinburgh, Lake District, Cotswolds, etc), but I'm hoping we'll also see the excellent Welsh driving roads and of course the Isle of Man. (And yeah I wouldn't mind seeing my home country of NI... but that's unlikely now isn't it?) Dynamic livestock and fields! No really. "So wheat fields will appear green and fresh in spring [and] return to their characteristic golden colour in summer. In autumn you’ll see all that harvested and baled up, ready to go, and in winter obviously the field will be fallow" - art director Ben Penrose. New driving surfaces: dry mud, wet mud, compact snow, deep snow, ice, etc. There's an off-road adventure park! Vehicles: Over 450 vehicles. New customisation options such as 'Drift Suspension'. Cover cars are McLaren Senna and Land Rover Defender 90 - God bless the Queen! Gameplay: Shared world - goodbye drivatars! :D With up to 72 players per server there's no more need for drivatars.. isn't that fantastic? Don't fear the rammers - only your friends can crash into you. Strangers will be ghosted on contact. It's Not Always Online - if you're a bit of a lone wolf like myself you'll be happy to hear you can go be alone if you want. Well... alone with the drivatars. Seasons - Dynamic seasons; "Every season changes the world around you". Dynamic time of day. Dynamic weather. Dynamic seasons, TOD, and weather will be synced for every player so you'll experience it all together at the same time. Each season will last for 1 week. Purchase properties - Oh hi, TDU! Apparently, this includes Edinburgh Castle... I wonder how many Forzabucks that'll cost? Purchase businesses - Have you dreamt of owning your own taxi firm? You're in luck. 60FPS mode available on the Xbox X. Native 4K and HDR. Quick-chat - use the D-Pad to communicate with other players, useful for us Xboxers who CBA with a microphone! Co-Op - seamlessly enter co-op from within the game world. Up to 6 players. Forzathon Live - world events available for up to 12 players. Horizon Stories - Sounds reminiscent of TDU/TDU2 driving contracts; a bunch of "cool driving opportunities" like being a stunt driver in a movie. Avatar customisation - Sounds familiar, doesn't it? 500 apparel choices for both genders and even post-race emotes/reactions like GTA. More details when we have them :) Release date: October 2nd, 2018

Live stream here: You can find alternatives in the OP. I'm excited to see what's next for Forza.. as always, and utterly bewildered that there's going to be a new Fallout. Can't wait. It's gonna' be a good E3.

The EA conference kicks off in about 3 hours! Here's a few teasers..

You have much to learn, young one. :lol:

You really are the new Diablo :p
