Forza Monthly livestream Nov. 6

Last bit of complaining for the day:

Motorsport got ~20 minutes of time in todays showcase, horison recieved nore than double that. And yes, it is horizons 2 year anniversary, but i would argue that a new games 1 month update is just as important, if not more important, than a games 2 year update

And they gave them back in the worst way possible, with one of them being FOMO.

Also, the Car Pass being full of all of the race cars we were led to believe would be in the launch game is exceptionally scummy. This update is mid at best, and it will not stop the bleeding. The only question now is how far this goes before Turn 10, or whatever’s left of it, decides they want to fix it.

Did I hear that correctly? They’re basically bragging about how many bugs they had to fix? Is there no comprehension of reality here?

And no Esaki or Greenawalt, which isn’t really a surprise.

I honestly think they have no interest in fixing it. At all. The hands are wiped.

great stream

these “monthly” updates are just big signs they’re holding up to come spend money on cars we already gave you. A real game changer would be WEEKLY updates not for content but for actual fixes. Look at any of the top games not just racing games, they all do weekly updates that promote better gameplay therefore bringing in more players.

Forza might be the only games that do monthly updates and by the time the next update rolls out how many people are still gonna be playing this game when you can’t even fix the problems stopping them from playing like crashes, freezing etc.

I propose monthly content updates along side weekly fixes and quality of life updates that is what this game needs to bring in the player base

T10: Hey guys we found the cause of the infinite loading bug but you can’t have that fix until next week.

Are they serious? People can’t play the game due to how broken it is yet T10 think it’s acceptable to force us to wait? There should be weekly updates. If there’s a game breaking bug (or in FM’s case lots of game breaking bugs) that should be a priority not an afterthought. Unbelievable.

Those 2 should’ve been there. They’re in charge. They’re the ones that made the creative decisions for this trainwreck. The least they could do is face the fans and explain themselves. The buck stops with them.

But see, that’s how it works. They’re the bosses and in this world, bosses can delegate and so they did, to two awkward dudes, one of whom thinks it’s pronounced “Velo-Star”.

Unbelievable that over 200 bugs have to be fixed after a release… embarrassing thing, I wouldn’t be proud of that at all.
Not a word about the Builders Cup progress saving bug… really???
Not a word about the disappearing track surfaces… really???

Don’t forget his 100% accurate pronunciation of Peugeot. These guys are meant to be car fans. Right?

No. They are game developers.

I maintain that this game’s PC playerbase will be either nonexistent or close to it by the New Year, and console will be closely behind it. Sure, the quick hits of dopamine they’ll get from shipping the Nordschleife here and a Bugatti there will make the numbers look nice for a moment…but all those will be are dead cat bounces. And even those will lose their effectiveness in short order. Their competitors are making strides towards improving their games, and Turn 10’s just floundering. I think some people are going to have to leave that studio before this game gets to where it needs to be and Turn 10 can start regaining community trust; Dan and Chris definitely, and probably more than that.

I’d be more impressed if there was a list of those bugs fixed that was generated from a bug tracker. An arbitrary “200” count makes it seem like they just picked a number that might make people happy.

Not only did Esaki or Greenawalt not show up they also disabled commenting because they knew exactly the response they would get. Fans are angry and all they do is stick their heads in the sand hoping we’ll go away. Heads need to roll.

This game is great example of what happens when you stay in a little echo chamber and don’t listen to any outside criticism. T10 obviously didn’t properly test this game and now we are the ones that are expected to be their beta testers.

Fairly sure that’s happening

Oh no doubt that’s gonna happen with the trickle of content and restrictions. The bugs pushed a lot away so far already

Not just that; I was all ready to plump for a full-pull Series X specifically to play this game. Now? Not a chance.
