A basic racing game detail that is not included that is baffling to me / Rivals

Practice

Why isn’t there a lap counter for practice in multiplayer so I can know how many laps I’ve done? And lap by lap time detail with sector times? Literally every other racing game has this. How is it possible this was not included? With the huge focus they have put on “practice” it really shouldn’t be lacking basic data.

Rivals

With the class system being so loose and cars moving in and out of classes it makes the Rivals completely ridiculous to have the same car (R class) as the top car on every leaderboard. Did they think this would be fun? Effectively limiting the racers to using that one car to get the fastest lap time? At that point it really isn’t a class based rivals system. They should use the car division (Forza GT, Forza Touring, etc.) and it would be infinitely better.

Rant over for now.

Agree that we need a practice lap counter. I try to judge how long tires will last but have to count the laps myself. It’s an annoyance for sure.

I would love a SECTORS info graphic. Placed on the side of the screen tracking the last 5 or 10 sectors as you pass through.

They did.

People hated it.

They added class-based leaderboards to that game within a year.

Something similar to what Project Cars 2 had… your PB, your last lap, your theoretical best, broken down by sectors.

Ah - well that is interesting. This is the really the first Forza I’ve gotten heavy into so I wasn’t aware.
