A topic about Topics

If people read all these topics in here before buying a forza game i think they would probably go and buy some other racer,i dont think ive found a single topic yet that has put forza in good light,I personally love the game,im happy with all the dlc,im happy that i have to buy the cars with my Cr as it gives me something to do rather than race online and put up with rammers,i even dont mind that the game feels unfinished as im sure with up coming updates all these little niggly problems will be sorted out.

I just thought id post this and say the game is great and if your thinking of purchasing FM5 then i say go for it you’ll enjoy it.

Bring on the trolls lol.

They brought back Save Replay to Multiplayer, so I can’t complain about the game anymore too much with one exception. Paint gifting would be nice to have back.

its same with any product really, if you like something you dont really go on the forums to say how good it is. but you have a issue with something then everyone needs to know.

but i do agree (with the exception of no being able to gift paints) it is by far the best forza so far.

It has to be said the forums were a lot more positive back when Forza 3 dropped, then 4 dropped, and so much was added that people were buzzing, but they made it too easy, and people quickly got bored, so the forums died off a little. Forza 5 has arrived, and it’s gone from too easy to make credits, to too few ways to make credits. This is what most of the angst is about. For people who only paint or tune, and aren’t great racers, they have little chance at making decent amounts of credits. Add in the fact that the drivatar system thinks we’re at a destruction derby, and payouts for less abled racers are low. But if you’re a less abled tuner or painter, payouts are exactly zero. Then there’s the lack of many features which were not mentioned to have been removed so people assumed would be present. Forza 5 if you’re just coming into the franchise is a great game. But most people agree that while a good demonstrator for the xbox one, it’s missing so many features from forza’s past that many people feel at the least disappointed. Then there’s the whole not very microtransactions thing that did some pretty serious damage early on. The problem with Turn 10, and it’s always been this way, is that they never adjust things a little at a time, they swing wildly from one end of the gauge to the other. So if one game is said to be too easy, they don’t make a little harder, they make it a lot harder! If things are said to be too expensive, they don’t make it slightly cheaper, they slash prices by 50%! They never just adjust things a little, they go straight from one extreme to another. This is part of their problem, as doing that is just going to polarise the community. Which is where all the complaint threads originate from. They just left out too many features from Forza 5. Most people expected some things to be missing with it being a new console launch title, but i don’t think anyone expected this much to be absent. It’s a shame as Forza 5 as a standalone title is a good game, but in the context of Forza Motorsport as a franchise, it’s lacking.
