If i select manual with clutch, i have to use the clutch even if the car has sequential transmission

Long standing issue in all Forza games to date. Dunno why they can’t address this with a change in code.

Also, the shift times are unusually long in cars with flappy paddle gearboxes, the tranny should not judder and hiccup. The shifts need to be seamless - Audio R8 V10, Skyline R35 GTR, SLS AMG, etc.

Manual w/ clutch setting is currently wrongly implemented. Cars that in real life have dual-clutch automatic gearboxes and flappy-paddles, in game still require clutch input to change gears. It is an unrealistic nonsense. Makes left-foot braking impossible. Also, makes the setting unplayable with cars that have 7+ gears, there is too much shifting.

The setting name should be changed to “authentic” and work the following way:

  • manual car - requires shifting gears and pressing clutch
  • automatic car (incl. flappy-paddle) - requires only changing gears

And if there is a penalty for driving an automatic without the use of clutch (i.e. slightly slower shifts), its should be nullified.

Not only is it wrongly implemented but the shifting behaviour for paddle shifting cars is wrong. They don’t shift like a stick manual IRL e.g. with pauses, judders or hiccups between shifts. It’s silly how Forza depicts flappy paddle gear shifts.

@here
Are there any specific cars that you notice this occurring on more than others?

That reminds me, Forza simply does not have/simulate true automatic transmission.

When you drive a Camaro IROC (or Crown Vic in other/older installments), you simply have a 4speed manual with ridiculously tall gears.

Yes - the R35 or the LaFerrari for example shift gears as if the driver is throwing in a clutch and shifting with a stick. Same with the 911 GT3s.

The thing is none of these cars (with paddle shifters) shift like they do in the game IRL.

If you’ve ever driver any car with a dual clutch gearbox mounted on the steering wheel, you likely know how seamless and hiccup-free the shifting is. It’s almost as if they have no clutch.

So, the issue applies to nearly all dual clutch flappy paddle cars.

Watch them “fix” Ferrari Enzo instead :joy:
