Well if you look at the Edinburgh map - the basics of castle, Royal Mile, Princes Street all seem present and correct

So it seems they are sticking to their mantra with doing the town.

Suppose it begs the question why they bothered with Edinburgh but not with other places on the map then.

I should imagine a combination of time to accurately recreate the roads, cost in doing so, and also playability and requirements for various types of road

Especially when you add in that probably 95% of the people playing it if not more won't have driven the roads anyway.

Some of the nuances are a little wrong annoyingly, they've missed a side street just off Princes Street where my flat is so I can't park outside it in game haha

They've also completely missed out the north of Edinburgh and Leith were there is a shoreline, ports and industrial areas. Missed a trick there I feel.

That might be the expansion pack. Now that the main game has the seasons in it there's not so much need for an expansion to be like Storm Island or Blizzard Mountain with the extreme weather. Might be a gymkhana/autocross type deal with courses around the docks and the beach. That would make a good use of the drift cars and settings.

lol I think you want Forza Horizon 4 "The Edinburgh Edition"

Would be neat, but apart from the small rail yard looking place there's not really any industrial areas.

Might have made for some fun Ken Block style of events or 'races'

Just noticed they've put Bumburgh Castle in! Had some fun on the beach there an Australian a few years ago

Official car list and soundtrack. I wasn't expecting any Toyota cars, but the lack of Mitsubishi is a shame

The TV and from that link

"What's that?"
"It's a hovercraft"
"Why?"
"...I didn't make the game"

Just pre-ordered, looking forward to it, just get some nice cars and have a blast round the UK, avoiding the horror of the Horizon festival where possible, all a bit too yoof for me but charging round the lakes in an RS1800 sounds fun.

I think it looks great. It’s not a simulation of these places it’s about giving a sense of the place. Edinburgh city centre looks great but you can land there from doing a massive jump off Arthur’s seat.

Again no Toyota...

Looks like a good list though, also radio choices aren't too bad, sure I'll grow to love a few of the tunes on there

Psyched for the '31 Bentleys, and the Moggy Minor & the Anglia,who wouldnt want them?
Playlist is meh for me,I usually stick to the classical station as I dont like the hippity hoppity stuff,Im too old for that st

[sparks_E46]

Normally I’m hyped for a new Forza. But I don’t know, I feel decidedly meh about it. Even if it looks spectacular. Red Dead 2 has a lot to do with it I think, I’m so excited hyped for that, I’ve kind of not given much thought to FH4.

The classical station has the same Aussie DJ as FH3 , it's what I'll set it to, partly for him, partly because classical music is usually long for extra time on the skill songs.
