Some details on the Forza 2 demo coming this week possibly

Remember we told you that a Forza 2 demo was in the works? Well, it seems said demo could well be with us this week – possibly even tomorrow.

The French portion of the interweb has been buzzing with reports that the demo will be going live as soon as the game has gone gold (ie has passed certification and is cleared for production), which could be as early as tomorrow, although whether the recent delay to Forza 2 will change that remains to be seen.

A friend just sent me this picture, what's that about :o

Image looks like your friend made it to me.

I really think your friend is just trying to play a joke.

Hopefully I am wrong.

"Well, in regards to the Forza 2 demo. I still don't have an answer. As of today's emails, the demo was still in the hands of our certification dept. They're expediting it through the process but it's not out of the woods yet. We should have a firm idea when you can expect the demo by early next week. Basically, once it passes cert, throwing it up on Marketplace shouldn't take more than a couple days. Of course, being a Microsoft n00b, none of you should take my conjecture as gospel, but I'm doing my best here to give you an honest answer. I want y'all to play the demo just as much as you do -- if nothing else, it'll give the forums something else to talk about. Also, once the demo releases, I'll see if we can do some fun little hotlap contests for some no-prizes. Please be patient. The demo is coming 'round the bend. So close I can almost smell the burnt rubber."

i found a source i do believe... check this out

unfortunatly it look as if this has been out since last week... :( the wait continues

Good detective work. (Y)

Don't think he made it, he doesen't know a word of English.

He said he got it from an Xbox Community site, but he always sends me something and won't tell his sources =P

Was hoping a Neowin member knew.

Indeed, your friend did not make it. Just a really poor designer did. ;)

if that wasnt the most contradictory thing ive ever heard....

"its green lighted, here it comes"

"when?"

"when its green lighted"

If you mean Spartan, don't listen to him =P The last time he actually had some useful information we didn't already know was about never :laugh: ;)

"its green lighted, here it comes"

"when?"

"when its done" (given the green light)

we all might as well quit speculating, the bastards are gunna release when we all leeeassst expect it

green lighted cert process, not what comes after that! :rolleyes:

Don't you go all game developer on me! :happy:

why not? :devil:

and when was the last time you posted "useful information we didn't already know"? :p

What seems more important from Spartan's point of view, leaking some information to the Neowin community or keeping his job that allows him to eat, pay rent, pay his bills and pay for his car(or bike).

Oh god, can't even say anything as a joke before everyone crawls out from beneath the rock to throw a bit of "Mature wisdom" at you.

It was a joke, relax.

were supposed to get some grand new demo information here in the next 12 hours about Forza 2

im quite excitied, maybe well even be able to play it today now that the update is out

Don't get your hopes up man, I have pretty much given up hope for the demo. Got it pre-ordered and it's out in 2 weeks, I will be able to drool over it once we get it in at GameStop and then be tormented even more :p

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
