I’m new to the Forza universe and after a few weeks of playing I thought I would comment on some potential improvements. I don’t know if this type of feedback is ever considered, but I’m putting it out there.
First of all, I think the gameplay is amazing and the game looks beautiful. The list below are things that I think can improve the online experience without requiring a major change to the gameplay itself. Except maybe for the drifters gametype (#3), I guess that would take some development. I don’t play in freeroam very much anymore because of it.
Road trip events
- Better + more options for championship voting. It seems like the options a very limited. Ditch the options that have two non-race events (King and Infected in the same championship)
- Championship style option. Have a race type for car type. (ex. American muscle that only allows those cars to be run)
Online Freeroam - Give the drifters an event of their own in freeroam.
- I can never tell what type of race I’m joining in freeroam. Would it be so hard to say "Player is starting an S1 Drag race or street race?
Other - Ability to sort cars by performance within a class.
- Ability to hide cars that are used infrequently. Sometimes I just about run out of time waiting for car images to load in the selection screen.
- Ability to select default car for each class (A, S1, etc.)
- Ability to select default car for race type (offroad, street, infected, etc.)
- Why is it so hard to exit a Road trip after championship completes? When I’m done with online, I just want to exit. I have to wait for voting and loading the new location?
- Too many button presses to get out of results screens. How about another button to exit all?
- Can’t mute people easy enough. I can only do it when traveling to an event or racing. Why can’t I mute when the event is being set up? One way or another I have to give up points in the game to stop and mute someone. Especially frustrating when I get on a server with 5 or 6 people speaking another language.
- Do pedestrian cars need to appear magically on the race course? Can they at least appear in a driveway and then pull out?
- Some races are ridiculously short. City Rapid circuit, 2 laps, two minutes. Takes 5 to load it.
Thanks!
