The Passage of Time
These nikkas over at turn 10 are making a game called Forza 5. You buy the physical disc and don't have access to the internet you're fukked. Why because they don't have enough time to finish the game so they will make it go gold so it will ship on time and you will have to download the rest of the game in order for it to work. But get this these slimy MF'ers are calling DLC, the nerve of these Devs.

Forza Motorsport 5 Requires One-Time Internet Connection - IGN

So when you first boot up the game, we’re going to ask you to log in,” he explained. “And when you log in you’re going to get the Drivatars and you’re also going to get a whole bunch of content: tracks and cars. Our production schedule is such that we are putting them in as late as possible and that means making them free as downloadable content on Day One.

“[But] that is required content to play the game. We basically have designed the game to work with all that content no matter how late is coming in, in order to make the biggest game possible.”

In other words, because games have to be submitted to Microsoft testing, certified, and then pressed onto discs and shipped, Forza 5 has to be done much, much sooner than November. By requiring part of the game as a download on launch day, it gives Turn 10 extra time to finish everything. And so what you get on the disc you buy at the store won’t be the entire game. You’ll need to download the rest of it from Xbox Live (which should be possible to occur as you play, Greenawalt clarified).


Turn 10 this is not good news, delay the game until its ready. Go ahead someone please spin this shyt as something good and don't give me a day 1 patch shyt, you know like fixing bugs NO, nikka this is to play the game from the jump, the physical disc is unplayable.

Here's a spin for ya..

You get to play the game on time and having to download the "rest" of it is negligible as you would've signed online anyway.

TYRONE GA!
"We have a clear pattern forming here. They're not going to require you to "check in" every 24 hours, but they're making it very clear they only want those with broadband buying their console, and by making you get it online immediately, they ensure the vast majority will just leave it online for good.

Make no mistake, these people are sneaky b*stards. It's not a coincidence this is happening. Microsoft still sees anyone without broadband as a worthless customer to them, and they're going to do everything they can to get people online with this new console, even if it means not including the entire game on the disc you buy."


:ohhh:

You left out the best quote: "We're not making a launch game. We're making Forza 5 at launch." :skip:
