A new track a month didn't last long.

Zero mention of FRR changes or Skill & Safety Rating changes.

TRACKS​

New free tracks will be coming to Forza Motorsport on a regular basis, introducing new challenges for you and your friends to master. Due to the extensive development timeline required to accurately rebuild these detailed environments to work with our new physics systems, our monthly updates may not always include a new track.

Not what they said in a Forza Monthly Stream, but what evs.
 
This patch is a joke:

- They supposedly increased the accuracy of sides-wipes in FRR but it still gives the wrong person the penalty. lol.

- They supposedly improved AI on race start, but they are still slow and having big crashes. lol.

No surprise that the races I have played the last 5 days are rarely full.

You know what I think really sucks about this game?

WTF is with multiplayer? What happened to joining an online race, laughing it up in the lobby on chat for maybe a couple minutes, and then having a race?

Why TF do I have to spend 29 minutes practicing and qualifying........and no one is even talking during this time........

This is not fun. This is a single player game and well that gets old pretty fast.

This game has so much going for it, except the fun factor of socializing with random people.

I'm not waiting around for half an hour to do one f***ing race against other people......

Really makes me miss those old Xbox days of PGR, RallySport, etc etc.

It's not just this game, it's the entire online community now. Happens in COD, happens in GT7. People are busy in party chats, don't give a f*** about chat, or got tired of all the racism and people wanting to bang your mom all night long.

Well, like I say, I miss those days of people talking about banging my mom.

"Have you seen my mom? She's 400 Lbs and a senior and gave birth to 4 kids"

But also really miss just the random chats with people around the world who aren't talking about your mom.

But also, seriously why can't we just have quick online races? And be able to decide if we're all ghosts too, so we don't have to worry about getting wrecked by some a hole?

:(

I told them multiple times the class based lobbies need to stay as they were to give a quick, casual mode. Then turn the "League Mode" into the more competitive race weekend mode.

I really don't know who they are listening to, but who ever it is they need to stop.

Like Kvally said, those days are long gone.

What's wrong with wanting to bang his mom?
 
I was holding out hope we'd get Sebring added before the 12 hour race this weekend.

Being able to buy car points is definitely a (long overdue) improvement. At least now I can try a new car and not have to AFK level the thing.

Hilarious that we're essentially back to the old system where we just spend game credits to buy parts.
 
There’s some speculative rumor and theory that the state of fm’s release was cos Dan Greenawalt was out on another project and hand almost no say or contribution with it. But he’s recently been brought back and is the new studio head so he’ll have final say over what’s next.
 
Had a race last night. Still chaos at times but wasn't really with me. They seem to have fixed you getting penalties for others mistakes too.

It seems we are back to replays not saving too. Mine didn't last night.

4 lap silverstone online race.


Nice racing. OMG....

Red Ferrari hit YOU.

Screenshot 2024-04-11 at 12.19.28 PM.png

Then white Mercedes comes out of pits (weird for a 4 lap race) and I thought he was going to cut you off. Purple Corvette passes you from out of no where. Then you nicely part the seas between the Corvette and Ferrari and pass them. Then the white Mercedes goes all stupid on you, brake checks. THEN you f***ed up on the last turn and they pass you!

DO OVER!

The Ferrari did, but not a big deal. That corner is deceptive.

That Merc braking like that got me a 1 sec penalty. So they would have finished ahead of me any way.
