Dear forza team,
I’m a fan of the game and have bought 2 of the games for xbox (5 and 6). But, i am disappointed to see there is some things not right. For example, you have seemed to have placed all fords under the US made flag (which is not true) fords are made in US (mustangs, cobra, gt40 etc), Britain (escorts, Cortinas etc) and Australia (falcon).
And talking about Australia, where are most of the Australian cars?, Ford and Holden? Australia has created some of the greatest racing cars of all time and they aren’t even in your ‘racing game’. For eg. Holden HK GT-S, Holden Torana XU-1 and SLR 5000 (a guy buy the name of Peter Brock raced these). And with ford they made the fastest 4 door sedan back in the early 70’s called the ford falcon XY GT-HO phase III, the XC Ford Cobra (based off a Mach 1 mustang) and also the Ford Falcon F-6 the best sports sedan for under $100,000 rated by Top Gear.
And you could also bring in some older racing cars from Australian motorsport, such as the (Ford Falcon) XR/XT, XY, XA - XC, XE, EB, AU, BA (XR6 Turbo) and FG models. And (Holden) HK, HQ, VK, VL (turbo), VN/ VP, VR/VS, VT-VX, VY/VZ, VE/VF models, and then you have Toranas as well. Because there has been fierce racing here since the 60’s so there is ALOT of racing history here in Aus. These aren’t all, I could name about a dozen more cars that Australia has made you could have put in the game instead of a VW combi or a willys jeep (which neither of these have never been related to racing, ever!)
And also where are the aussie tracks? Yes you have Bathurst but there is also Albert Park, Melbourne (where Formula 1 race) , Adelaide street circuit (where formula 1 used to race), there is also Phillip Island GP circuit (where the moto GP race) and Sandown Raceway (one of the oldest race tracks in Aus.) and also Gold Coast street circuit (where INDY cars used to race) And these are only a handful of Aussie tracks.
So i think if you want to appeal to the Australian gamers/customers more i think you need to put these into your next game.
Oh and also i think you need to make like an adjustable suspension where you can lower the cars because some of them still stand really high even after putting race suspension in and they look gay because if people want to make that ‘Japanese stance look’ they can’t. And if there is please tell me where it is.
looking forward to the next game.
Kind regards,
James.
