Many things are missing from that list, those two would be great for sure, and having them playable first it's again a great idea not only because they deserve that and players will like it, but also since they already have the models, all they need is a simplified version for traffic and that's it, just a handful of cars would be needed as traffic only (big trucks and buses for example...and again, driving a smaller mountain bus is something I can definitely see myself doing, even as a histories event or something like that, just like with the tow trucks in FH5) otherwise I don't expect them doing 30 cars just for traffic, especially when again, most of them deserves to be drivable first, so no excuses here.
Of course, I worry a bit about certain licenses never seen before in Forza, such as Daihatsu, which I think is plain mandatory here, from Moves to Hijets, and Copens to Miras, you see them everywhere. And let's not forget about the many variants a model can have, such as the Move Canbus that I did added to the list, quite a common sight.
So long story short, if they really did their homework, just like I did when I was there, they know what's needed. If something cannot be obtained because of legal issues...well, too bad then, but if they were able to do it, and didn't want, it's a different thing, and I hope neither of those scenarios happen. And talking about legal issues...
Correct. Has always been for me, but at this point the 'exclusive' thing should be banned for good, it's something no player gets anything good from.
Let's say the BMW thing could be real...TCM players get the cars, and non-players get nothing, as it happened in the past with so many examples, it's plain extortion, mafia style: 'Oh...heard you like this car. Such a shame...but they are our partners now, so if you want it, you better pay for their game, and about yours...forget about it'. Doing this has always sound like desperation to me, as if saying 'our game is so mediocre we need to hold captive these cars to force some sales here', don't care about the reasoning behind, it's just what stinks of, and it's bad for the industry as a whole, but money and press releases with 'BRAND-BRAND new collab!!' sounds very corporate to them and think they are doing just great business deals I guess...
They better not count with me buying the game if that happens, even if I had it, what if I want to use them in more than one game? What about racing cars outside of a game with actual circuits? Big pass on that, I'll boycott any game that approves of that technique, no matter who does it.
