Was just comparing the P1s from FM3 to FM4. Interesting...


FM3

Speed // Handling // Acceleration // Launch // Braking

R15.....R1 983 - 8.2 // 8.9 // 9.1 // 7.9 // 8.8
908.....R1 994 - 7.8 // 9.0 // 9.5 // 8.3 // 9.0
02a.....R1 984 - 7.4 // 9.2 // 9.0 // 7.6 // 9.2
Aston..R1 976 - 8.5 // 8.7 // 9.0 // 7.8 // 8.6


FM4

Speed // Handling // Acceleration // Launch // Braking

R15.....R1 995 - 9.3 // 9.8 // 9.8 // 8.7 // 9.7
908.....R1 998 - 9.3 // 9.8 // 10 // 8.9 // 9.8
02a.....R1 990 - 9.2 // 10 // 9.5 // 8.2 // 10
Aston..R1 989 - 9.2 // 9.9 // 9.8 // 8.7 // 9.8

If we use modified street cars and in a few months from now, or maybe even before the start of next season Turn 10 comes up with a DLC including the 458 GT2 and the C6R GT2 you will have a tough decision to take !!! ^_^

Thats very good news as it would suggest more acceleration parity between drivetrains? i.e. You can't get higher than 10 and therefore 4WD can't get faster?

It was until a few days ago, I might cancel my FM4 pre-order. It doesn't add up to what they promised. Lazy Turn 10. :'(

If I'm really honest here FM3 looks better than FM4. Porsche, more and better tracks, focuses more on "Racing" than "Having fun with cars" (Dan Greenwalt :@ )

I've thought the same too!!
Not about canceling my Pre-order but what about keeping the series on FM3, as a Le Mans series FM3 is by far the better option at the moment, but but but but we MUST remember none of us have played FM4 yet! Forza Aero might actually be performance enhancing, and not look like a to gear style job!! we might get some DLC, Who knows there is 5 months roughly until we will be looking at next season! so thats 5 DLC packs!!! So we could be looking at about 50 or so new cars!!!

Even if you hate the idea of using tuned road cars (which, as I said before, are effectivley what GT cars are anyway...) you can't say 8 player lobbies are better than 16 player lobbies, especially for multi-class racing.

I'd say just wait and see what James can do with the cars, who knows, maybe you'll be surprised? Anyway, I can't see the FLMS staying on FM3, because that will hardly attract new members, and I'd hazard a guess at saying it would mean a lot of members would just leave to find an FM4 series instead, regardless of the fact it may not be as well organised...

As a series, the FLMS constantly needs to grow and expand. People come and go, so advertising and attracting new people is very important. Staying on FM3, whenever 99% of the Forza Community as a whole will move to FM4 when it comes out, would be suicidal. How would we attract new members if we're playing an out-of-date game and everyone else is on the new one?

So an lmp1 grid for next season say:

A 2009 Peugeot 908/
A 2009 Audi R15
A 2009 Acura ^o)

A 2011 Lola :O
Another2011 Lola

Well done Turn 10, I'm so impressed you could come up with that in only, what? 24 months of development.

Ok we get it, you've just made the point everyone has been making for the last couple of pages.

how about trying to focus on positive things (rare as they may seem) instead? How exactly will this motivate James and everyone else to continue to put so much effort into the series, when all he sees is people crying about it?

Do like me Solo, I think it will still be fun even with street cars. We might be surprised, and as I said there might be a couple of interesting downloads on the way (Audi R18, current GT2 cars, etc.). Let's wait and see.

Yeah I know we should be trying to focus on positives for FM4, but when you are going from F1 2011 and then looking at FM4 it just saddens me, Weather, tyre wear, fuel use, a little bit of dynamic day night (not really because of the lights but there are hints, 16 player lobbies, all from a game that is only 2 years old, I know they only have to model 12 cars but car count doesn't effect performance, it has bugs, in some ways the physics is worse then FM3 but in others it is better!

I just wish FM4 had at least 1 other thing that made any change to the racing, 16 player lobbies is the only thing I'm exited about but I'm no longer holding my breath for it because it will probably just lag a lot!

F1 2011 = Racing Game
FM4 = Car game <--- Dan says it himself!!! Fm5 will just be giant photo gallery!

My point is we shouldn't have to pay extra money on top of the already costly price for extra cars we should already have...

I would just like to put this out there. Seems like a lot of people are not excited for the game due to the lack of race cars, which i completely understand due to this being a racing series. But cant you at least be excited for Forza 4 in general. No where have I read that Forza has ever been marketed as a racing game.

The Staff Team, the only ones who actually have an idea of what exactly might be happening, are pretty unified!
