Forza 4 game will not include Porche - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

good old EA to blame for this one

Quote:

EA couldn't see their way towards collaborating again," though it seems that it wasn't for lack of trying on Turn 10's part. EA currently has licensing exclusivity arrangements with Porsche, similar to the publisher's deal with the NFL. But with Need for Speed: Shift becoming its own sim racing franchise, it seems EA could be pushing back on the Forza folks.

between not adding porche, EA liscensing football (getting rid of the 2k series), and now the EA version of steam its like they are trying to buy their way to the top. Business wise it is a good decision, but it doesnt mean they are doing the best thing with these liscenses. Shift is no where near forza in terms of a racing title and Porche cars will be missed. The only hope is that they will include RUF cars.

In total, the game will be lacking 35 Porsche models, replaced with an unnamed cadre of "new makes and models."

NFS games won't have ferraris though so ya gotta compromise I guess...

DaBombDiggidy · 08-25-2011, 01:36 PM

^ thats true. but honestly... who modifies a ferrari anyway? lol that would be a travesty the way NFS is. if i saw a ferrari with nos, a body kit, huge spoiler, and neons i would microwave a baby.

JDMTyler3326 · 08-25-2011, 08:25 PM

But comon they are adding the Hummer and the 240sx hatch

Teku18 · 08-25-2011, 08:43 PM

I believe a few RUF cars have been confirmed not to sure which ones tho off the top of my head.

mcperson2k · 08-25-2011, 08:43 PM

Same thing happened to GT5.

Ferrari doesn't like their cars in arcade racers esp ones that show damage more than anything...

accordguy04 · 08-26-2011, 08:39 AM

I wish they would bring back my car, or atleast maybe the new Accord. It was in Forza 2 and while I know its not the most popular "racecar", it def was cool to be driving MY CAR around in a video game. :D

But that def sucks that Porsche is not gonna be in Forza 4... EA is Fnckin sh!t up!

liberta · 09-22-2011, 06:30 PM

Forza 4 has the GMC Syclone. The only Porsches i REALLY want are the Carerra GT, 959 and 911 GT1 cuz there are no RUF Equivelants.

Boxters and Cayman's were alright
The 911's were awesome, but Any 911 based RUF's is more badass imo.
And The only reason the Cayenne was even used was to smash into things.

They've already confirmed the RUF RGT-8 and Rt-12. Which covers the 997 Turbo/GT2 and GT3-RS Respectively.

However they NEED to include the CTR Yellowbird(930) and CTR2(993) for awesomeness/nostalgia factor.

accordguy04 · 09-23-2011, 09:18 AM

I was hopin they would have Porsche for the new 918 hybrid

BlkWhtTSI · 09-25-2011, 04:59 PM

wtf is a porche? lol

06evors · 09-25-2011, 05:10 PM

I could honestly care less what EA does as long as they release battlefield 3 on Oct 25 and not a day later.

c7scayman · 09-25-2011, 05:47 PM

Well I was planning to get Forza 4 just because I wanted to buy, modify, and race Porsche's. Guess I am sticking with Forza 3. I hope online play works with Forza 3 against Forza 4 players.

SpEcRv9 · 09-25-2011, 06:03 PM

Why would you buy a game filled with 500 cars just to limit yourself to porsches or in this case RUFs? Limiting yourself to one brand in a 60 manufacturer filled game is the definition of stupid.

SpEcRv9 · 09-25-2011, 08:01 PM

and no....online play won't work between players playing the 3rd and 4th game.

fitftw · 09-25-2011, 10:06 PM

I'm looking forward to seeing how Forza 4 ends up, though I'm happily sticking with GT5 on PS3. It'll probably have all the same RUF's that are in GT5.

RUF 3400S '00
RUF BTR '86
RUF CTR2 '96 my favorite. Great info about this beast http://p928.narod.ru/porsches.com/ctr2.htm

RUF CTR "Yellow Bird" '87

jesse096 · 09-25-2011, 10:25 PM

Isn't RUF the same as Porche?

fitftw · 09-25-2011, 11:00 PM

they take regular Porsches and do great things to them. You would know if you checked the link in my last post.

how's that unfinished game coming along BTW? still unfinished and mostly half assed?

actually I play it so I can answer for you...yes, it is.

I'm upset I kept my PS3 for 5 years for what GT5 delivered...well, didn't deliver for that matter....

fitftw · 09-25-2011, 11:47 PM

I dunno, I've been a GT fan since day 1, so I manage to enjoy it. Been playing regularly since its release last November.
