Spork3245 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I wonder if they’re done with numbered Forza titles for non-Horizon ones? Like this will be a service-style game that continually updates cars/tracks...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoberChef Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 What got me was the announcement that it is EARLY in development, so we may not see another FM until perhaps 2022? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All games, though? There were several games in the showcase that didn’t state XBO (just Series X and PC), but, TBF, I don’t recall if they had release dates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its why most of the newer games didn't have gameplay, they are still pretty early in development, and will probably start releasing 2022. All just guesses though.

Keyser_Soze Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I don't see how it could be 2022, they even took a year off last year, there was no Forza. If the trailer is in engine as it claims I mean they've got car models in place and it's looking pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I don’t want to rewatch the showcase, but I’m 99% sure there were first party games with 2020-2021 release dates that did not say XBO on it. I think MS cross-gen stuff will be some, but not all. Otherwise, Series X will only be able to offer better graphics and not actually take advantage of the SSD for gameplay related things.

Most of the 2020/2021 games are 3rd party devs making games for Xbox Series X. They can target just the Series X. Things like Scorn and The Medium both said they were just going to be next gen only. Microsoft got a lot of hate for this philosphy, but from what I can see, the reason they went this route, is the games that will be releasing in 2020/2021 were all in development awhile ago anyway. 2021 maybe a cross-gen Forza Horizon 5 by Playground, with 2022 being a proper Forza Motorsport.

(Or am I mistaken on the MS published bit? ) Microsoft just committed that it's first party stuff would be multi gen for the first few years of "Next Gen". I didn't agree with it, I think they should give their 1st party studios the freedom to do what they see is right for their aspirations. Ultimately, Aaron Greenberg came out yesterday and said their studios can develop for the Series X first and see if they can scale down to Xbox One. My guess is, they made this commitment because they already knew the timelines on all their big new AAA IP's being worked on, would be 2022 or later anyway.

Playground games has 2 teams, one for Fable, one for Forza Horizon. Turn 10 is the studio that iterates on their Forza Engine, and they maybe fine tuning the next gen only Forza Engine using the SSD and other new tech to really push the boundaries of the game. Traditional Forza games are largely the same tracks, with prettier visuals, maybe a tweaked career mode. They need more of a leap, especially if they are making it a GAAS model that just updates. A newer Forza Horizon could be made on the older Forza engine in a new map and location and still be cross gen I think and be largely successful. The Series X could be a 4k 60fps, maybe a performance mode of 120fps. They typically dont announce a FH game until June with a Sept/Oct launch date. Obviously just purely guessing, but wouldn't shock me. This year would be the year for a Forza Horizon 5 based on their old schedule of every other year, so next year would be an extra year for development as is.

I could see it not being a total shock, sure. But when have they shown Forza before Horizon when Horizon releases first? Has that ever happened?

They've been yearly releases all the time I think, at least since the first Forza Horizon first launched. They always were shown either E3 or shortly before E3, then launch a few months later that fall/Holiday. It's why I and many probably assumed there would be a Forza 8 for launch or shortly after. I know I'm most likely wrong, just trying to think of what games they could potentially have for release next year that maybe Cross Gen.

I imagine it would, but I’d like to see what they have in store. I’m wondering if they’re doing anything new creatively with the career mode, if they’re taking it back to FM4, doing something like that card/mod thing they did in FM7, trying something different like creating a narrative within career(like the F1 franchise, or FH), or will it just be FM7 with a big car pack and a couple new tracks. Considering this has been one of the longest break between mainline FM titles I’d think they’d have something to show off other than what essentially looked like a CGI trailer. Something to say “hey, this is why it is taking so long”. But maybe they could have released it last year, but was told to hold off so it could be a launch window title for Series X.

I think if it was Horizon’s turn, we should have saw it first to begin with. Maybe the studio is planning something else? It could also be they’re working on this new generation’s Horizon, in the same way Microsoft’s talked about Halo and Forza as long-standing platforms.

XxEvil AshxX Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I think it's pretty safe to assume that Avowed, Fable, Forza 8, Everwild, and State of Decay 3 are 2022 at the earliest. So technically they wouldn't be lying lol. The devs came out and plainly stated that The Medium just wasn't possible on current gen platforms. The fact that it's rendering two scenes simultaneously leads me to believe them. But, it's Bloober Team, so I'm more concerned if it's going to run at 15fps or not.

Forza not coming out until 2022 would actually be surprising. That’s a 5 year development cycle. Three years longer than any cycle in the mainline series. The game would have to be massively ambitious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to them, they're in "early development" which, if true, would put them back on their two-year cycle. Hence the 2022. I would love to be wrong though!

SoberChef Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 While it sucks we have to wait until Spring of '23, at least that gives the Hot Wheels DLC for Forza Horizon 5 time to breath (wasn't it THE DLC to beat for FH4?) That being said, we should start to see a whole lot more behind the scenes & such in the coming months leading up to its release & I'm totally down for that. Still holding out hope we can go back to Mount Fujiyama (Fujumi Kaido), been missing that track since FM4!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
