Pryzel This makes no sense ? Free DLC at launch why not just add it in the first place ? Anyway game is looking great, looking forward to trying it out, loved the first one.


Might not of had enough "disk" space so when you download from marketplace it's easier

This looks pretty awesome, I have enjoyed every single forza that I have played so far so I have no doubt that this will be a huge hit.

Free DLC at launch... why not just add it to the game? This literally makes no sense to me. Although, I'm sure they had their reasons.

Tactical_Luck_Gaming People are so gullible..."Wow. Free DLC from day one!" You idiots do realize that is simply a marketing ploy to trick you into thinking you got free bonus stuff. Instead of builing it into the game from day one. They pretty much cut some cars out of the already finished game, and then made a mirage of it as a great deal for everyone. DLC is getting out of control.


Idiotic comment. DLC is "out of control" because there is free DLC, makes no sense. If it cost money that would be different, but since it's free it literally only benefits people. Makes no difference if it was in the base game or as dlc, they're both free. Quit complaining. You're probably a PS4 or PC fanboy so go play Drive Club or something rather than being an idiot on Xbox threads.


Wrong, I am a gamer on all platforms but I came from a generation where the gamer was sold a solid complete game from the launch. I'm not saying free content isn't bad, but when it is from day one, they are simply using marketing tactics to make it seem like you are getting bonus stuff when it could have simply been included on the game disc. Seeing how I played every Forza game, I can say they like to take complete games and splice them up into DLC and let you buy 3/5 of the game from launch and then the other 2/5 of content for a price as DLC. Forza 5 was the biggest case of this when they had everything you could do in microtransactions. They are supposedly tuning it down for Horizon 2, but they even stated it will be brought into the game at a later time. As long as there are gullible gamers that will buy an unfinished game and also pump the money into the DLC to make it an actual solid finished game, they won't stop, they will continue to just suck money out of your wallet.
