CONFIRMED: Bernese Alps (Festival)

Check twitter

Alps is a great way to show off the power of the xbox one

mhm

The only redeeming quality of this  so-called "track" is the scenery. Of all the phony circuits, this one by far belongs in an arcade game.

agreed to all of it.

All the tracks T10 has ever made except Tokyo and Sunset are [Censored]. I loved Benchmark but it was nuts

I've grown to love Maple Valley, and miss New York. They are fake tracks with a real life feel to them. The flow of MV is pretty good, and since most street courses have a choppy stop n go nature, NY got that part right too.

NY was a great track. Dat hairpin

^ Yeah, I wish I had been on tORA for TCC back in FM3... the NY round must have been insane.

I did forget about NYC, I loved it when they added the Chicanes

I really like Maple Valley, a very nice track, just those kerbs need to be toned down a notch!

I'm a huge fan of Maple Syrup, I loved Rio in FM1 and the Alpine Circuit was amazing.

Ok, I may have exaggerated on my inital statement.

Of all the T10 Tracks:

Sunset/Nissan Speedway; Excellent
Tokyo; Excellent, just needed a tweak on that tight chicane before the S/F line
Rio; Boring to drive, needed a tweak on that chicane on the long straight
New York; Excellent, loved the chicanes in FM3, wish the long circuit stayed
Alpine; liked it, but that ridiculous hill was dumb
Blue Mountain; loved it, but it needed that stupid crest removed before the kink
Almalfi; Stupid
Almalfi Rally; great but stupid at the same time
Fujimi; Awesome
Benchmark (Sidewinder); Excellent but extreme
Benchmark (not sidewinder); meh
Sedona; RC is STUUUUUPID, Oval is meh
Maple Valley; hate it. It's too flowy
Bernese; dumb but very pretty
Camino; dumb but pretty
Ladera; STUUUUPID
The other one of the three stuuupidoes; STUUUUUPID
Camino Extreme; has the best parts of all the 3 aforementioned tracks, but is still dumb but pretty.

This.

Wasn't that basically the A1/Red Bull Ring?

Don't forget the FM1 layout for New York Full, and the FM3 layout for Positano....

Not really. The back section was far more flowing and the end section tighter than the A1 Ring. Absolutely my favourite fictional track though

This was it:

Turn 12 - the dip chicane - was amazing.

Funny how the Bernese Alps track thread has been derailed somewhat.

I like Bernese Alps It's a challenging circuit but has some great overtaking opportunities. I also like Camino Extreme, Maple Valley, Sedona (all layouts) & Sunset. I don't know why you all hate them so much, it's not like we ever race there...

Yeah i always liked that one, i loved turn five, the hairpin too.

Well we need somewhere to discuss tracks that are being rumored, how about we make a track list discussion area on the foru....oh wait

Alps is a really good track love it, always go well round there, won a supercup race and LMPC class and got my best season 8 GT results there.

yes Chaddy. the 458 Italia seemed to really enjoy Bernese in the GT Season 8.
