A reddit user found something interesting.
It seems that in the development stage, FH4 had a showcase event where you could play against boats. (The icon is probably appropriated from FH3)

There is a river in the FH4 map, but it has never been used for an event, even now.
If they hadn't removed this showcase, I wonder what event this would have been.


I don’t have access to the game right now to check, but is that where the Motocross showcase is located? Might’ve been a placeholder icon

That user found something really interesting. A video of the annoying voice guy with the IGN watermark....
Also there was no pre demo gameplay as far as I remember. The demo was first available at E3 when the game was first revealed.
Also isn't it strange there's no link to the video?
Anyway this look fake to me.

Based on my memory of the map, that corner appears to be here:

It's fairly close to the motocross event, but it's not the same location. Location makes sense for some sort of boat race, but maybe it was cut for unknown reasons. It doesn't make sense to race up river to the dam and I don't see how a race against a boat around Derwent would be terribly exciting. Maybe if it was a dirt race along the east side running north, close to shore?

In other news, the Tachyon appears to have a fuel-cut type rev limiter. Ah, details.



Watch it bounce off the rev limiter (kind of absurd if you think about it) at 3:25

Aside from the fact it's terrible to look at, absolutely useless at anything and unpleasant to drive, what's the point of the 2nd seat in the Tachyon? There's no space whatsoever to put your legs anywhere.

For luggage space? Also, I vaguely recall (don’t trust me on this one) that some cars have a laughable back seat for either legal or insurance reasons.
 
@Nacho Libre the back seat of a Porsche 911 is (well, was, dunno about now) much like this - you could probably fit two very thin five year olds in the back but it's more like a shallow bench with seat-shaped "backs" than actual seats. Loads of cars do this, I think some are even an insurance thing so they can technically be called four seaters rather than two (which is a coupe, which is costlier to insure) but that might be an urban myth.

I tried a drift tune for the Tachyon, it was actually OK but it's not going to break any records. I'd say I might use it for casual drifting in free roam but I always forget which cars I've got are set up for drifting.

I'm not really expecting anything substantial until PG can get back into regularly working from the main studio again. Can possibly expect another pair of cars from the list by the time the Tuesday clues come around.
 
Randomly having this stream on April Fools is a weird decision. Maybe they'll re-release a lot of the Pre-Order cars in the Forzathon Shop maybe? Idk.
That'd be nice! But knowing PG, they will probably troll us with whatever they have in store for us. Best we keep on our toes. 👍

I dont think the timing is that weird. If you think about it, the normal stream would be the following Monday, which is Easter Monday. So the stream would logically have to be either 1 April or Tuesday 6 April, due to the Easter break in between.

Having said that, I wouldnt be surprised to find an April Fool's joke or two cropping up...

That’s a nice list but wouldn’t be expecting any racecars for Horizon unless they’re off-road like the Peugeot S2000 car. Shame there isn’t a motorsport pack like FH3.
 
how awesome would it be if the Delorean comes next update? would make a good April fools joke. and they could get a deal with universal for the back to the future body kit. considering they did add lots of fast and furious cars in the past which is made under universal.

Unlikely for the body kit though... Still would be fun and funny if they did it like they did with the 77 esprit and its submarine kit.

Car is prob more wishful thinking on my end here. Although it prob wont be surprising considering it was just added to forza street and didn't Italdesign said more cars of theirs are coming? Italdesign did work on the Delorean so would make sense.

Given that Forza Street has an "80s showdown" event running, it can mean that Update 34 may be an "80s-themed" update if possible.

Well, let's see what Torben Tuesday has to offer.
