:roll: How did I know that you'd have something negative to say about the inclusion of SUVs?

How, exactly, does the inclusion of SUV's reach out to non sim fans and cause Turn 10 to "sell out"?

It's better than formula one or something, were they are always all strung out and a single pass is like amazing.navyguy21

Lets not go that far..;)

Grasping for straws much? If you want, you can smash cars into other cars already in Forza. How does this make SUVs any different? The majority of people will be using them to race against one another, not engage in demolition derbies. :|

And here you go again. Where have I expressed this fervent dislike of Gran Turismo that you constantly accuse me of having? I think Forza is the better series, not that Gran Turismo is crap. Learn the difference please.

[QUOTE="f50p90"] Um. Read the thread. Smashing SUVs into other cars. What does that have to do with racing? Nothing. It looks cool though. It might attract more people that arn't into sims.. It's not like you would be a fan if this was in Gran Turismof50p90

Then, by all means, don't use them. Geez.

If you don't see a place for them, that's fine but that doesn't mean your opinion is a universal truth. There are many people who find value in their inclusion and likely many more by the time the game ships.

Sometimes there isn't anything more entertaining then wrecking people in race games and these will come in handy. :) I've never heard so much screaming when this happens since Forza 2. And Yes, Rubbing is Racing!

You can race SUVs type vehicles in Dirt, that was fun until you hit a jump then good luck with steering.

Personally I don'tlike the idea of having SUV in a racing game, trucks (maybe) not SUV's.

I guess Turn 10 just want's to show the flipping or rolling of automobiles in the game, take the range rover, if you go around any corner at 70 mph (it maybe less) your guaranteed a roll.

Or a Ford Explorer with Firestone tires would do the trick. :o

Great now they just need to add my Jeep Liberty, and maybe a Nissan X-terra which are the rivals to the range rover.

[QUOTE="The_Game21x"]

[QUOTE="f50p90"]SUVs aren't built for racing. They are made for off road, hauling, carrying more passengers, or carrying more cargo. They literally have no purpose on a race track. Why include SUVs? Why not include another race form. Even motorcycles, or trucks. SUVs have zero purpose in this game. It's lame. It's pointlessnavyguy21

Hey, no need to be saying I'm not a "real" racing fan, I watch almost everything, I just think it's a little ignorant to say NASCAR is just left turns, is boring, and that it takes little skill. It's very underappreciated. In my oppinion, The racing itself is of much higher quality, and as a driver vs. driver standpoint, it's much more exciting. This is of course just me. Go watch one of the nascar roadcourses, or a ristrictor plate race, I will not take you seriously if you try to tell me it's not good action.Tobin09

Tobin...we're just playing around...... I do respect the guys that are hucking around the track at those speeds and it does make for some good racing

NASCAR is just an easy target is all ...It's kind of funny NASCAR is the Zoolander of motor sports..

No love for the circle track, well there goes my enjoyment of dirt track Outlaws.

I don't watch much of either, but last I heard the open wheel guys were not doing so well in NASCAR. :P

I would rather watch F1 between the two, but I try to watch Le Mans, MotoGP, WRC, and AMA.

lvgaming

Ohhh god..... Montoya is such a tool......He had his 15 minutes of fame in F1( more like 8 minutes).....Because of his D-bag attitude and lack of pace is why he is no longer in F1..Now I am not saying that's why he went to NASCAR..but lets not use some tool as the example of open wheel racers..:P

I would like to watch some WRC....but I have no idea who broadcasts it here in the states.:(

[QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"][QUOTE="navyguy21"] i agree, i think the inclusion of SUVs is more "exciting" than Nascar or Rally being included in GT. Not that im not a fan of either, but PD cant beat DiRT in rally racing, and including Nascar seems to be more "selling out" than SUVs. Dont get me wrong, before this gen, i only played GT games, and love them, But i refuse to play Nascar in GT, with the physics and sound effects of GT cars applied to them, same with rally racing.navyguy21

It's so stupid.. if they have extra time on their hands to add crap like this, why don't they add a few motorcycles instead? That would actually be fun and interesting.

[QUOTE="navyguy21"]

[QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"] I hope your joking :| Having SUVs is better than two completely different styles of racing, that require two completely different type of cars and driving skills. Sorry bud, its not going to fly. Adrian_Cloud

[QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"][QUOTE="navyguy21"]Dude, calm down, put your fanboyism aside, and re-read what i wrote. I said SUV inclusion was more FUN. F-U-N!! Not better than Nascar or Rally. Geez!! Sony fanboys are..............just great! (trying to avoid getting modded :P )

navyguy21

[QUOTE="navyguy21"][QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"] But its not more fun, at all.Adrian_Cloud

While they're not necessarily appreciated for their racing abilities, it's still a nice addition and adds another layer of game to try and master.

That Range Rover looks freakin' sweet. So what else do they need?

Oh yeah baby 8)

When I get a chance to watch WRC and Motorcycle racing, it's on Speedvision (Speedtv) and Fox Sports. You would have a lot more knowledge about Open Wheel and Nascar, I just mentioned it because I saw a segment on ESPN.

Speed does not do rally:(.......There web site that shows all the listings for anything power sports and they do not list a time or date....

Maybe fox..but again after doing some searches in the past..I could not find anything... ..Maybe I missed something on fox or espn.....I hope so because it's so freaking fun to watch..

And the Montoya comment was just for comedy......True......but just for comedy

WRC back in the US.

For artwork it would be brilliant.

Well I might spend a ton upgrading one fully. Itd be great racing some supercar to have it beated by a jeep :P

First thing Im doing thoguh online is taking a normal car and fully upgrading it, but keep it looking the same so no one realises how good it is. Then stick it up online against really good cars only for mine to go zooming past XD Golf GTI would be good for that =D

That made my weekend..Thank you for the link!!

I dunno, if it's only 16 cars, and a few tracks, it's not really nascar. Just a new car model to race on the oval. It's wrong going by what we know to say that GT has NASCAR, it's just the COT it seems. Forza has ovals too. Rally seems epic though. I'm kinda curious if they gotta do it dirt style, or if a realistic rally is possible. Besides, The Car of tomorrow is comparable to an SUV right? I gotta say though, Everyone in awhile, Ive done R3 with stock setups on the 2.5 mile in forza, and online that makes for some good races. I just got an idea, Wouldn't it be 100% better if those races in gran turismo, were you have to pass so many cars in so many laps, you wouldn't be able to make contact with another car? That way, it wouldn't Promote bumpercar style passing like the current mode does?Tobin09

That's an idea...but to help promote clean races there has to be a consistent method of applying consequences for improper driving...

IMO bump drafting is ok..a touch here and there is cool. Riding a rail to achieve a faster lap time is not..nor is a late braking quarter panel hit..

I hope GT5 does not use the useless... inconsistent.... garbage...penalty system they have now.....For a developer that tries to claim they are perfectionists at everything they do.... I find it funny they would allow for such garbage to be implemented.....

Speed shows Moto GP & AMA though. :)

Fox Sports showed WRC I thought at one time, but WRC made that deal with Discovery HD Theater to start showing in October. Well there is always youtube for now.

I wonder if they will have Lamborghini's SUV Concept? And not the LM002 "Rambo Lambo" :lol:

We can finally settle the Range Rover Sport vs X5 4.6i debate :)

rybe1025

[QUOTE="rybe1025"]

[QUOTE="WWIAB"] Ah but a new debate will arise (BTW the Range Rover in the pic is the standard) BMW X5M vs 2010 Range Rover Sport (with the New Jaguar 5.0 Supercharged beast) I saw a leaked list of cars so time ago....the new Mercedes ML63 AMG is also included I hope the Touareg is the V10 Tdi!WWIAB

Lots of cars

!

This game really needs a Ford Falcon GT Or F6!@ I would almost die from pleasure if they had these to cars plus the Pontiac GXP! We could do Holden Vs Ford Races:Pwalkingdream

I would like to see the Ford Falcon GT or F6 too

If the Pontiac G8 GXP does make it, it'll could be be in the Holden Commodore Guise; same car, different badge

or they could pull a FM2, and offer the Pontiac G8 and Holden Commodore (Lower power and higher power versions in different marques)

I think that the Car would probably turn up in Vauxhall VXR8 guise
