Wait what? How is that statement true? He said "Turn 10 didn't add any new visual mods other than the widebody kits". Which is absolutely false. Upgrade Heroes includes cars not just with new widebody kits, but cars with new visual modifications such as Rally/off-road parts, blowers, roof racks, roo bars etc. The upgrade hero part is just a preset. Again, upgrade heroes doesn't even encompass all the cars with new parts/widebody kits. It only lists about half of the cars with new visual modifications.
So no, it is actually a false statement.
Yeah, he may have missed that, but we were talking about the upgrade heros in general, and he had agreed with my original point of customization lacking. I fully acknowledge that the
new cars got customization options, but that's to be expected. When I mention
new customization I'm also wondering about the vast majority of cars that are absolutely lacking, or have had parts removed over the years. They are missing a lot of potential and did little to to update their existing roster. The rally parts are in the heroes section(atleast some of them are I believe), as are the blowers, roof racks. In fact, outside of the heroes section, the only other few that get the widebody treatment are the RX7, the E36, and the Murcielago. The Blowers are all very generic and seem like a copy paste job over most muscle cars, but why actually exclude from so many of them in the process? It's things like this that bother me about the customization. There is so much lost potential. It's nothing new either, this is something that always plagues the Forza series. I can get multiple stock trim bumpers for some cars, but still can't even get the trim for the Spirit R? Things like that.
Again, we already had an outline of what exactly we were getting with visual customization in this game pre-release. Not once did they say older kits were gonna return. So to expect them to fulfill that expectation is pretty unreasonable.
Well that's ridiculous. I was never confused about what they're going to offer, but because they said they what they where going to do, means I can't be bothered by the fact? No, it just doesn't work that way, so don't go around parading it like that. What they
did do though is tout up the customization aspect of the game, as if it took some massive leap. It took a leap, but it was not massive.
I agree that not everything has to be Rocket Bunny/Liberty Walk and would have loved some TRD, Varis, Veilside kits. But I completely understand why we got mostly RB/LW stuff in terms of widebodies. I would imagine it's costly for PG/T10's artists to revisit older models and add new modifications (especially widebodies) because you're foregoing the opportunity to model new cars. With it being a costly process - they'd want to model the widebodies that are popular right now to get generate the most advertisement - which are RB/LW. Hopefully they'll build on bringing more kits from varying manufacturers in FM7.
I don't understand. Why would you think it would be costly to model kits for some cars, and not others? They've already done exactly that with the upgrade heroes. Can you explain that? The simple fact is that these are things that would have brought excitement to a rather forgotten part of the car list. It doesn't have to be all new cars all the time, lets touch up on a very lacking aspect of the game in the process as well.
Reinstalled Win10, installed all updates and now downloading again. Thou hast been warned.
