Forza 2 - Online Fun

[hoddo]

When Forza 2 finally gets released what online options will be available?

I am hoping for a multiplayer with lots of cars on the track as opposed to the usual 2. This could be a huge amount of fun

Seeing as there were multiple cars on track in the multiplayer for Forza 1 and pretty much every other racing game released since, i'd guess you're fairly safe there.

Touché!

Thanks for that steve_evil, in one foul swoop you have answered my question and made me look like a fool. I have never ran a console online before so obviously looking forward to the online action .

Thanks again for the help

That's alright, kind of assumed you had so apologies for the rather blunt response. I think the lobbies in Forza 1 could fit up to 8 people in at once, not sure if the new one will come with any support for bots to make up the numbers. I think the number of players is again set to 8 max, any more than that and it would get severely messy in both the graphics dept. and gameplay-wise.

Fully agree.

I can imagion that a good race can be had with 8 drivers though. Really looking forward to getting my mits on Forza 2 with the Lambos in.

How cool would it be to have a 30-strong field full of Nascars (or GT cars), all controlled by online human players?

How many simultaneous players can you have in PC-based online racing games like rFactor?

Edit: Beaten to it, rats!

Actualy I believe they have uped the cars to around 16 at once? could be all internet rumour ofcourse!!
The more the merrier I say, just as long as it retains the realistic damage stopping all the kids from playing!
