I can take horizon for what it is great gamplay etc.
TURN 10 FORZA MOTORSPORT 8 BETTER BLOW MY EAR DRUMS I’M TALKING 2 STEP AND ANTI LAG CRACKLING THROUGH MY STEREO LIKE FIRE WORKS. STU STU STU DOSING ABOUT TO NOCK MY HOUSE DOWN. V12 RIPPING LIKE A PACK OF HUNGRY WOLVES CHASING THE HOT DOG VENDOR. END OF RANT.
I would be great if they could fix the issues but i dont think they can fix all of them it would be great to patch the obvious mistakes like the the r32-34.
I believe it comes down to how they are processing the sound of the cars. Its some kind of sound emulator. This many cylinders engine configuration= this sound. Its not like the old nfs days were they used real recording proccess and choped it up.
For Anybody that missed my reddit post about the Fast lane Gaming video on YouTube… It’s sitting at 20000 views 1400 upvotes and over 365 comments about the valid points in the video that Fast Lane posted and their own oppinions about the bad sounds… give it a read
More than half the cars sound like auto-tuned vacuum cleaners LOL. These guys should really take some lessons from The Crew 2, the cars used to sound like absolute crap in the early alpha test when there was the NDA disclosure, but almost everyone complained and now they’re one of the better sounding cars in gaming history, with a meaty and raw sound that just sends joy down my spine. Most cars in FH4 sound like this Need for Speed 2 (1997) - YouTube or worse.
The VR6 GTI’s are a bit off. At first I thought they were ok, and then it started to sound more and more like a GTR. Which - ok, yeah they have the same characteristics with VR engines, but the VW VR6 is much throated and not as raspy.
Gonna add Cayman. As for VR6, I don’t know, is it really this bad, I can add it but they do sound a bit like GTR which is accurate. Was it better in FH2?
EDIT: Btw. I read in other thread that people working on the game are looking much more into sticked threads than the other ones. If you have any sound concerns post them in Feature Wishlist Thread. I also posted the list there (it’s on page 20). It would be good to show that many people are concerned about sounds in that thread as well.
To be honest, I’m being picky. And I think we can be picky, iconic engines like a VR6 deserve to be perfect. In my opinion, the more we bring attention to even minor details the better chance we have at something being fixed.
And I agree, I think utilizing the stickies thread is best after hearing devs actually will read that. But I don’t think it would hurt to still use this thread to update the master list in the stickies thread. Unless we just want to quote your original post and add on to the list that way. I only fear that your master list post will get buried.
All skyline GTR’s and now even a few bmw’s Are using the same sound file, why? The best skyline GTR sound was r33 GTR from fm3 this should be used for all skyline GTR’s and the bmw’s Should use the fm3 sound files as even if there not spot on they were close enough. Anyone agree send your request to forzafb@microsoft.com and they may listen if we all do it. Leave a like if you’re going to do it that way we can see how many people agree. Thanks for reading
Okay, you’re picky, I’m too a bit but I try to think realistic, also I think it would be against forum’s rules to just quote it over and over and over with every addition. I don’t want to have it deleted or to get in trouble. Every time I’ll update the list I’ll tell I added this and this car and if someone’s interested then they can go back to look for it. That’s what I did so far. And I just thought that I should include only cars that desperately need change. I look at the gameplays on YT before adding the car to see if there are many complaints. I don’t want to list every single car that sounds tiny bit off because it might be too much for devs to fix. There are sounds that are just in desperate need for change (VTEC, FXXK, LaFerrari, Zonda R, Skylines, BMWs etc) and those that are somewhat acceptable. I can add that VR6 if it’s needed but it might get too far over time if I keep adding every complaint, I hope you get my point. The thing with my list is that other than very few cars that need recording (Alfa Romeo Quadrifogolio, but they could just find closer sample imo) I’m focusing on cars that used to sound good. I know that recording every car is something that would be tough to pull off so if there are already good samples from previous games then they should be reused and that’s what I wish they would do for as many cars as they can that need change. If someone disagrees with my list then I’m sorry, then they can make their own lists too, that might actually help but try to think realistic, they won’t just go through entire list and give every car the exact sample. Sure, FM6 had something like that but I don’t think it will be done again… (if they actually do it though, I’ll have even more respect for them, but it’s unlikely)
