Forza 5 December update slashes car prices, adds new modes
Prices for on-disc cars will be slashed almost in half (down 45%, to be exact), IGN reports, while racers will also accumulate money much faster after the update. On top of that, developer Turn 10 is adding a pair of new game modes: Drag Racing and Tag.
In Drag Racing, up to 16 players can hop into a lobby and challenge other drivers in one-on-one straightaway races or simultaneous drag races for up to eight players at a time. The setup sounds quite similar to the Forza 4 version of drag racing.
Tag is a bit more complex with three different variants on the classic children's game: One player is designated as "it" and must run from the other players to win; one player is "it" and, upon tagging other drivers, will cause them to be "it" as well, with the last standing untouched driver winning the match; and in the last variant, one player begins the match as "it" and must tag other players to pass the "it" status, with the player having been tagged the least amount of times winning the match.
"We based our economy largely on Forza Motorsport 4 data," Turn 10 creative director Dan Greenawalt told IGN. "The earn rate [in Forza 5] should have been the same," Greenawalt added, assuring that Turn 10 is "making updates pretty quickly and painlessly" and will continue to do so based on input from the Forza 5 community.

KAQ Pretty nice :) good that the prices have been dropped :)
There still shouldn't be so much DLC in general if you ask me. It's good that they slashed the price either way though

-LOST- Is going to stay like that or is it like a promotion?
Glad to see Turn 10 acknowledging their mistakes and making changes. I think this will be a good step towards winning back some fans they drove away.

This is only the first step in regaining trust. However I believe we all realize that Turn 10 had nothing to do with how the micro transactions were structured.

Chicago_Blackhawks The car prices are ridiculous, I read an article that said you can spend up to 200$ just to complete the game because you can't 100% complete without the like 20 dollar car packs
Now that is ridiculous. While the prices have been put down they really shouldn't make you purchase DLC packs to 100% complete a game -_-

Urth I really want this game , but i dont know if it would be a wast or not
Forza is a serious racing game, especially 5. Its not like an arcade style game like Split/Second, its a lot harder and much more complex. In Forza 5 you can tune your car completely (re-adjust tires and all), upgrade almost every part of your car, and completely customize the car, so if you really like racing games, I also recommend it.
