He would completely break without his speed. He's all cocky and shit because he's the fastest thing alive but if he suddenly became a normal being his personality would fall apart.

It doesn't say it's Team Vector though, I'm sure Vector will join Charmy and Espio in Team Chaotix for the game r-right?

They randomly put Vector together with Amy and Cream in Free Riders so it's clear he's fine working without Charmy and Espio. Sega/Sumo also probably wanted to have the obvious Eggman/Metal Sonic/someone team but still wanted Blaze and Silver because they're popular in Japan. Why they chose Vector over Espio or Cream probably comes down to his appearance in Free Riders and the Sonic Boom cartoon. Someone keeps saying this was originally supposed to be a Sonic Boom themed racing game but they scrapped parts of it after the games were failures. It would make sense for Vector to be in it in this case since it may have been planned from the start.

That reminds me, was there anything found in Forces about Boom Sonic being originally in it after all? I really wanted that to be verified but I don't think I've heard anything about it.

Outside of Boom Sonic's tape glove thing being a part for Avatar's, nah.
It seems like out of a lot of the things that were cut from Forces, not much related to Boom. At least not yet.

I doubt it was originally a Sonic Boom racer, since I doubt this game has been in development for that long.

True. I've always thought that a Sonic game done in the style of Generations but on a grander scale could be cool.

Bueno digits. With Nintendo doing the "looking back to move forward" thing with Odyssey and BotW, Sega would do well to cash in on this trend and just give us sonic generations 2 already
Either that or an entire game with just the day stages from Sonic Unleashed.

I wouldn't be opposed to that (provided it's done well of course), but didn't they just do that with Mania? I think they even had a phrase just like that one on the reveal trailer.

nothing official but the Avatar's grappling hook functions very similarly to the electricity whip thing they use in Rise of Lyric. The lanky proportions also look a bit like Boom Sonic's
>>3343
The Boom branch was planned to live for a lot longer than it did. We're still set to get more toys this year even though the show ended awhile ago. I would not be surprised if the game started development in 2016 as a Boom racer. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch considering we got Fire and Ice that year. I'm curious to see if people uncover anything when they start modding the game, like how they found Forces uses the same engine was Lost World and was originally called Sonic Wars

I know, I know, there are a lot of similarities which is why I was really expecting for people to find the truth very easily, specially considering the things that fans have found in previous games. But there has been no finding whatsoever (that I know) which is weird because it sounds like it would have been really difficult to hide all traces of Boom Sonic ever being in the game if things got as far as resembling things from Boom so much.
