Official Forza 6 Thread: The Definitive Racing Sim

I thought the same...then I watched a couple more of his videos (check the Holiday 2015 buyers guide ).

How this fool is getting thousands of hits has me once again weeping for our society.

He's usually pretty cool with his opinions. I guess he's just had enough right now. He's the type to bash a game and then after playing it more he starts to appreciate it. Obviously, after 3 or 4 games into a franchise it's going to be more of the same. What do people expect?

"Night time is just the day without the light"..

That is the only point he made that I agree with.

I haven't watched his other videos, but I honestly thought this was a joke. I won't lie, Driveclub spoils you, it's kind of absurd actually how beautiful that game can be, even without weather, but I don't understand any of his other criticisms. If you do not like Forza, then yes, maybe this game isn't for you, but otherwise he just doesn't make any sense.

What has he had enough of in this case? Forza 5 did not have enough, but at it's core it was a good game, short on content. What exactly was Forza 6 supposed to bring to the table? It's a racing game. It brought fantastic wet weather racing, a significant increase in cars, a fantastic number of tracks, tweaked the handling system mostly for the better and it is actually a prettier game.

This guy is driving around in a behind the car view trying to talk about realism and handling? Again if you don't like Forza then fine, but the handling system has been a positive of the series since it started and that hasn't changed although the system itself has improved.

Even if Forza 6 was literally Forza 5 with a new case it would not suck. Yes, if you own 5 it would a ripoff and I would never trust microsoft or turn 10 again, but the game itself would still be a good game. It always drives me a bit crazy when a game is judged based on numbers or amount of content. He says he is bored driving, but he enjoys driveclub... maybe he should be playing more forgiving games like horizon. He has clearly played the previous Forza games, did he think that they were going to change the handling drastically to an arcade game after making 5 semi-sims? The handling hasn't changed!

Reminds of an article I saw on gamespot I think and how the author didn't understand why he or anyone would want to go back to the restrictions of the main Forza series after the pure fun of drifting million dollar cars through fields in Horizon. You don't like sims, get it through your head. It's like complaining that the newest Madden isn't like NFL Blitz after 15+ years of being Madden.... Why would you want to figure out a complicated play and execute it when you could be throwing a fireball to a man running over people at 50mph... I give up.

That's gotta be satire! Right? Hasta be. He just can't be that stupid for real.

I watched a few of his videos. I think it is satire. Or at least partly.

Saying that Forza 6 has no sense of speed is quite the odd opinion though.

 

[Kerosene31]

He seems like a parity of El Presador.

The whole "watch me play this game while I yell about it" schtick.

I never thought I would return to the Forza Motorsports series after playing Forza Horizons 1. However, Forza Horizons 2 just didn't grab me the way the first one did and I found myself really wanting Forza Motorsport 6. I've been playing a decent amount of Forza Motorsport 6 and Horizons 2 is sitting on my hard drive and I only completed about 10% of the game.

I'm really enjoying our Monday night races. Hit a little speed bump in my career last night. I kept screwing up on this on track with a Lotus and ended up rage quitting on my third attempt at the same race. Going to give it one more go and then I'm lowering the difficulty. That was always the problem I had with previous iterations of Forza Motorsports, I'd hit a difficulty level that would frustrate me and then I'd wind up quitting. Trying to get my Forza time in before Halo 5 comes out because I'll probably wind up playing mostly that for a while.

The comment section is full of fanboys hearing what they want to hear. I even read some guy complaining that all of these other racing sites that he watches are just praising the game and that it was great to finally hear someone saying the "truth", lol.

They guy is saying the cars don't even turn, lol. Dude must always play with all assists. He obviously knows nothing about oversteer or how not to go into a turn to quickly. Lame, and the comment section is sad, sad, sad.
