Not true. The worst case scenario would be to pay maximum price for all 11 monthly DLC and Porsche DLC expansion pack and that puts it at $97.
Thing is that VIP members got discounts on 1 of the monthly DLC as well as the Porsche DLC pack (1200 instead of 1600 MS pts), the season pass saves you 30% on the first 6 of 11 DLC packs, and there were a lot of chances to get ALL the DLC on sale over recent months, including 30-50% off, even on the Porsche DLC. All of this was for mostly new car content for FM4 (many of the Porsches were in FM4 but some were new). Had you held off on discounts and sales, you could very well have paid as low as $49 for all the FM4 DLC
My gripe is that it seems many of the FH DLC is of FM4 cars which should not have been held back just to charge us later. I don't mind new models at all, and don't mind much of new variants of an existing model but tried and true it seems we're going to get FM4 cars as FH DLC, some of which we already paid for via FM4 DLC. That leaves a sour taste in my mouth and I will not bite. The rally expansion though... that however I might even if I think it should have been included in the game because afterall... the game launches 1 day and this rally expansion pack launches about a month after so why was it not part of the game from the get go?????
That is something I think T10/MS should have addressed. The FM series kept incorporating DLC cars into each sequel, so it wasn't a problem, but with the close relationship between this game and FM4 it's a bit off-putting to buy the same DLC cars again.
On the other hand, like browneyedman said, it's a choice, and it was also your choice to buy FM4's DLC. The practical thing to do is decide which is more important to you -- driving these cars on a track, or driving these cars on the open road.

I can see why some of you are upset and I sure don't want to spend all that money after paying $60 for the game alone. I don't understand how most are complaining that this and that car came on FM4 and I have to pay for it again. My thought on this is these are two different games and yes T10 is involved but playground made the game this is not FM4. To say that you can drive the same car in FM4 is true but its not the same game, drive on the track or the street lol. I will just buy the game alone and pick and choose the car I want and wait for expansion packs to go on sale no biggie.

Wow this has turned into three pages of crap....IMO
Its not just T10 doing stuff like this...Look at the COD franchise....everyone is money hungry......I just wish they would sell me a "Single player game" for $40....and buy a "Multi-player" game for $60 that will include all the multi-player goodness..
There are alot of people/kids out there that dont have high speed internet available to them so why should they pay full game price for something they cannot use??....Since we are splitting hairs here

^ LOL look who just contributed to more crap! But I actually agree with your last statement, I rarely play online, and I always saw it as so much wasted time and space for all of this multiplayer stuff. Maybe if I had more time in my life I would be more social.

Mass Effect 3 has released 4 or 5 FREE dlc packs for the online 4 player co-op mode. Those FREE packs include maps, characters, guns, updates, upgrades, and an insane amount of content. All Free. Not everyone is money hungry. Even as much as I dont care for EA, I do support free DLC. 👍 And before anyone takes this out of context, I am not bashing any game or developer, but to say everyone is money hungry is not true. There are some developers that release free dlc.
No one is being forced to buy any of the dlc. If you dont like the price of the dlc, dont support it.

And this is different from any other developer, how?
Some people are fine with that as long as they feel their money was worth paying for it. Not sure why you're continuing to press this particular point when it's all based on each individual's desire to spend the money or not & you've already made it clear a couple posts ago you don't think it is.
Probably because you're sitting on your high horse claiming those of us who don't mind spending the money are "loaded" & "like taking it up the rear". We got it the first 5 times you think it's a rip-off, but that doesn't mean you need to bring in the rest of us who will buy the DLC into your post, as if we need you to help us see straight.
And I'm laughing at you acting as some sort of financial savior.
Oh lord, save me $5 so that I may spend it on something else. I'm surprised you're not at GTPlanet preaching what a rip off those DLC packs are worth since they're roughly the same price at a $1/car, too.
It all comes full circle to this simple fact you acknowledge, but continually forget as you repeat your argument; if people feel the content is worth the $5, then it's not a rip off to them & let them be. If you think otherwise, don't buy it as repeated stated & continue on as you were. But, nobody needs you to come in here telling everyone to save $5 or that we liked to be screwed in the ass. That's where you get backlash & scrutiny yourself for not even knowing what the future content will be, but you seem to have a time-machine, so let us all know what's in store instead of constantly repeating yourself.
My apologies, sorry everyone. I wasn't trying to be anyone's financial advisor or savior as has been implied. If I have offended anyone by suggesting that the DLC for this game was of poor value and a rip-off, please do accept my apologies as I was not trying to do so. I was not trying to tell anyone how to spend their own money or that they should not buy the DLC. I was just stating my opinion that I didn't think it was a good value. If I used too many posts to try and express my opinion, sorry about that as well. I was just trying to defend my own opinion.
And this forum is no place for petty one liners implying that you have more sense than money or that you enjoy taking it in the rear. I by no means have suggested that anyone enjoys "taking it in the rear". It's a common saying in today's society that suggests that someone is being taken advantage of. Perhaps I should have just said "taking advantage of" in the first place, but I said what I said and if that upset you personally than please forgive me. Please don't take anything further than a petty comment. There's just no room for that talk in these forums.
So again, sorry if I wasted your time or offended you. Just wanted to be able to give my opinion on the matter. Take from it what you want, good or bad.
Also, don't get on the wrong side of
McLaren. That dude will research you and take you down and make you out to be a moron. So just a heads up. I'm not the only one. My advice would be to never have a negative opinion about anything, don't repeat yourself, and don't ever say anything petty, no matter how minutely petty it may be. He just won't put up with it. Camaroboy knows what I'm talking about. Not trying to upset you McLaren, just letting everyone know.
I'm out, enjoy Forza Horizon everyone.

This was hardly necessary.
Just a word of warning to everyone, continue onward with the thread topic and stay away from remarks such as this. I've enough to do around here without having to worry about people taking pot shots at one another.

Let me repost all of your posts to refresh your memory, & so everyone can continue to see the holier than thou status you preach above us with your continued affirmation that those of not agreeing with you are the following:
Your opening liner to your post says there's no need for petty one liners, yet you're coming at me like a fat kid who had his chocolate taken away before dinner. What was that directed towards T-12 about nobody liking a smart ass again? Pot meet kettle? Don't throw stones in glass houses?Also, don't get on the wrong side of

That's enough, folks.
I just want to make sure everyone knows I never used any profanity. Quote me all you want and call me all the names you want, but don't change the words I said to something I didn't. Ban me if you want, I don't mind, but I never said anything to the extent that it has been taken to. Again, I apologize. McLaren, you win, honestly, and that's nothing petty. I am serious!
I never implied any profanity. My apologies if it offended you in that way, but it was never ever intended to be profanity, nor did I want you to imply it as profanity. I cannot make any assumptions as to if others will take my comments literally, or if they will take them lightly and informally as intended. I'm not sure there is anything else I can do to make this right, other than apologize and shut up, but if there if there is, let me know what I can do. I take the blame for the underwhelming trend this thread has taken, and I do deserve the treatment I have received.

Strong this
Maybe hillclimb in the mountains or snowy/slushy roads.
Seeing that this dlc comes in December, having a winter season would be fun.
Although that's not gonna happen.

The rally physics in the demo were fantastic so this is more than welcome in my eyes, hopefully some hardcore rally stages will be available to drive on.
I'm not a fan of the Evo X, but I can't wait to try other cars in the dirt.

Since the article said new cars maybe we can get the following
Lancia 037 Stradale
Mitsubishi Pajero Rally Raid Truck
That weird hatchback Toyota Corolla from the Gran Turismo Games
Ford Escort RS1800

Maybe there will be a bit more of a rocky-type of terrain to drive on, and it will include some more off road truck type vehicles?
Or perhaps a muddy surface type?
I for one would like another free roaming area like the golf course, but down in the sandy desert area, an area sort of like where Tanner Foust tested the Ford SVT Raptor in Top Gear USA.
