Ok I’m probably one of the biggest Forza fans out there, gotten every Forza game that’s been out and loved playing them all but this one has to be the most disappointing one to date, it’s like playing half a game and everything is so slow in it, I love designing Liveries and even that’s slow to respond, on the 360 I could fly though everything but on F5 I’m having to wait for the next vinyl page to load, plus when I want to adjust a piece it wont let me go to it, it freezes on the add a vinyl, beginning to think this game was rushed out to be released with the console and patched on the way.
I’ve been getting glitches in the game also, the tracks moving like its just been locked into place.
Forza 4 puts this to shame and not very happy with the lack of cars in the game, or tracks for that matter, got a feeling Forza 6 won’t include any cars or tracks at all and they will all be DLC.
I don’t want to sound critical but if a company makes something worse than its predecessor and basically give you less than before but charges you more people ain’t gonna buy it. Think about that Turn 10 before you get too greedy.
i spend a fair amount of time painting and i have to say i have never noticed this, personally peaking id say its a big improvement over FM4 as when you had close to 1000 layers on FM4 it would become laggy were on 5 you can fill it up and ive never seen any lag.
maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling the game see if it was a bad install or something
Yeah when you see games like Tomb Raider, Ryse, NBA2k, Infamous & Killzone…Forza does not hold up well at all. I dont understand why they went 1080p if it meant no AA could be applied. 900p with AA would of been far better.
It’s not the game. It’s just you, or at least your console. Nobody else is encountering these “slow” issues. Nobody has this lag going through pages of vinyls and nobody has had it freezing when adding vinyls. I have no idea what you mean by “tracks moving like it’s just been locked into place.”
Regarding cars and tracks, you have no concept of game creation. They can’t just copy-paste all the content from last-gen into FM5 or else we’ll have a steamy log like Gran Turismo 5, which had 220 cars build for PS3 and 800 cars imported from PS2 that looked right at home on a PS2. GT5 was heavily criticized for choosing quantity over quality. No developer is going to give you several-hundred cars all built from scratch for a single game, especially one for this generation where content takes even more development time than it did for PS3/360. Tracks for FM5 are known to require a bare minimum of nine months to produce, and this is known to be more than what it took for previous iterations of the game. GT5 only offered 220 cars built for PS3 and that game came out four years after the launch of PS3. Turn 10 offered nearly as many cars for FM5 on release day for One, with car models for a new generation of hardware. Show me any other developer that is going to give you more than 200 cars on a game for PS4 or One, without recycling as-is from older hardware.
No it isn’t this was one of the 1st things i mentioned over at Virtual-Motorsports when i did my first paintjob, pauses in between doing things in the paint editor, very annoying when you’re used to flicking between stuff on FM4 which is like night & day in comparison.
Just not been mentioned in a while due to the numerous other glitches & faults that have moved this one into the background, its nothing major, just not very next gen nor what you would expect.
The amount of cut scenes you have to sit through after every race, the in ability to change tuning when in rivals/career meaning you have to back out to menu every single time…it is slow, it’s much slower to get around than Fm4 in that respect.
People are allowed to be disappointed in what they’ve purchased, there’s is no monopoly on satisfaction.
And that’s just the short list. I agree. There are some great things which I think were expected. But the size of the list of features that should have been NO BRAINERS to be in this game is staggering.
Don’t waste your breath mate. There’s a vocal minority that like to complain, and keep complaining. If, as they claim, Turn 10 doesn’t listen to anyone I don’t see how repeating the same thing fifty times is going to help. I’d like to suggest a “whinging” achievement. I’m confident some people could achieve “master whinger” quite quickly!
thats funny. complaining about complaining. then suggesting the solution is a complaint to keep the main forum free of complaints rather than fixing the issues that are being complained about. and look at thee forums. there are not that many posts anymore. removing all the complaint threads would just move old threads higher on the list, the same threads we are already ignoring. threeads on the 1st page even with half of them being complaints have a last response over a day ago. i dont think showing threads we have ignored for 3-6 days is gonna improve it anymore than just showing the threads we have ignored for just 1 day.
and you want less complaints? how about turn ten stop telling people to come here to resolve their complaints. i’ve seen screen caps where people have been banned and turn ten’s message for further info is to come here. here you get told to send an email to fb@forzamotorsport.net or something like that, which gets you an automated response which ends with "for more info visit…forzamotorsports.net. you cant complain about people coming here to complain or look for solutions when it’s exactly what turn ten is telling them to do.
wanna stop all the complaints? fix the game then there will be nothing to complain about for most people. and stop sending official messages from turn ten telling people to come here to complain. “we dont discuss bans here”? then why send a ban message ingame telling people to discuss it here?
I am enjoying the game for what it IS and what it HAS. Yeah it should at the very least had everything that made the other games a success. But it doesnt. It also doesnt change the fact that I am having a blast doing what I am doing or I wouldnt be playing. I am disappointed with several aspects and I really hope they get fixed/updated/resolved/whatever but that doesnt take away from my having a good time. If I wasnt then I would just go play something else.

The only thing that disapoints me about this game is 85% of the people in multiplayer races just smashing into people and not even caring if they are spoiling others peoples experience and fun.Its a shame aye…Other than that this game is exellent
everyones complaining about the game and as you say the only thing that ruins the game for me is the other people playing the game. although i must add that since ive started blocking people it is getting much better.
My problem is them bringing back so many Forza 4 cars. It’s a good thing I never bought forza 4 dlc anyway.
But they’ve added road America so I’m confident they’ll add more maps maybe even fujimi and maple if we’re lucky. They did have to redo everything for next gen though, I’ll give them that excuse.
They completly remodeled all the cars and tracks in fm5. It takes many many hours to do this. They only had 2 yrs to do it in. It took them like 5 yrs to compile all the tracks and cars fm4 has. I’d say they did the best they could.
As for glitches I haven’t seen any cept for occasionally crashing when in multiplayer lobbies. They for sure left out a lot of miltiplayer features that seem would be cairly simple to have put In.
Here’s the thing, T10 knew they would be a launch title some three years ago. Now unless you were a complete twit you would have laser scanned all the cars you added from that time… That should represent quite a few cars putting in guest star appearances in the DLC. Yes they need remodelling for FM5 but the data should have already been on hand.
The paint booth does freeze and lock, this is not an isolated issue as noted elsewhere. While they enhanced layer count is most welcome the dreaded glitches and feathering remain. No evident improvement over FM4 in this respect.
