A step down Forza 6
Regret purchasing this game, so many things that need to be fixed and addressed. I seriously hope they do since there is potential.
Here are all the things I am disappointed with:
The menu system and UI are more confusing and slower than the previous game. Some of their UI decision really have me scratching my head. I've had the menus lag HARD at certain points.
The races now take forever to load.
The ai drivers can be infuriating to race against. They are dumb and will ram into you, drive you off the track and brake in the worst areas. I used to like the series due to it's ai being a competitive challenge, but not so much anymore.
No Qualifications for any races... Really? For a racing simulator? I would love to be able to crank the difficulty and earn a better pole position.
LOCKING certian cars off behind loot boxes, driver rewards, limited dealers seems fishy to me.
They made no attempt to improve customization or the livery editor from the past two Forza games. It's literally the same options from Horizon 3 and Motorsports 6. Can we please have more manufacturer decals so I can make a better looking racecar?
Split screen is just broken. No sound from the cars engines. Did they not see this bug? LOVED racing split screen with my friends logged into his profile. We'd both earn experience and cash then buy more cars to race each other. This is no longer the case. Only player 1 earns money. And if player two wants to buy a car, you have to restart the game. Nice.....
I could go on, but that just makes me sad. There are parts to this game that really are nice, and unique. But in the end, I think I'll be holding onto Forza Motorsport 6.
