Since release the game is a disaster. Most posts i read on most social media about FM are about how this was the biggest let-down ever and how people have giving up on playing. And if you guys would care about your customers that paid for your product you would have noticed and maybe tried to turn it into something positive much quicker. Just fixing bugs isn’t enough anymore. You do a good job doing so but not enough after we paid full price to be beta testers. And you tell us car pass is over with the next 3 cars? For real? Maybe give us a few more cars and content for the last 7 months of helping you guys beta-testing since we paid not only with money but also with our valid time to do so. Give us something that keeps us motivated to play. Some extra cars and a race hopper for every class to pick from including drift lobbys would help keeping most people interested and bring back players that gave up on FM. Its not that hard to do. What is hard for us is being motivated to play a game that feels lifeless while spring and summer is coming up and people prefer to spend time outside instead of playing forza and realising more and more that you really dont listen to your customers and go your own way with content like tracks, cars and events.
I can’t argue with any of this. I stopped playing the game months ago. Online multi-player with the crazy penalty system is just a joke. I’ll never pre-order a game again after paying money for a game that arguably still isn’t right months after launch.
Devs don’t come over here, this is the Discussion HUB soo… unfortunately you are out of luck.
Trust me when I say that everything you spent time on posting because you care is going to be
A: Ignored.
B: Maybe read by a certain Turn10 employee then Ignored
C: Will fade away down the bottomless pit of posts that are created daily.
We hear you (the players) They Don’t (the developers)
And I have every right to call them out for it. They don’t care except to just complain about a game they haven’t played for months and now know nothing about anymore. So I’m not going to stop either.
If you are using a phone then I guess you treat it like a text message in any other app which you would not necessarily format as you do in a word document sitting at your computer at a desk with your keyboard and mouse angrily ranting about the state of this game but at least it is not ALL CAPS like some of the topic titles and I think I have stretched this sentence out long enough without any proper punctuation or contracted words just to really make it more difficult to easily parse
There’s plenty of room for Drifting in Horizon, the game made about/for drifting.

Drifting is a form of motorsport and hence should be in fm23, the forza drift community is very large too and the hoppers on fm7 are still going strong now. The main forza man Chris even made a blog video saying how they’d had input from actual drift teams/experts on how to improve the realism of drifting in fm23 and act-knowledged how big the drift community was in forza motorsport but there’s no sign of any drift content anywhere to be seen.
Drifting isnt motor sport, it’s just a competition with motor vehicles. Sport is defined by facts. Time, distance, ect. Competitions are judged by opinion. Drifting, dancing, cheerleading, all judged competitions. Not sports.
if T10 took the Time to explain why things take time to be added & tested why does the game look worse than FM 5 & 6 who makes key choices explain what roles developers do show us what is being tested take a screenshot in the forums do short clips or photo of before & after be more open like never before T10 come on. saying stuff is one thing but showing us what is coming to the game more openly would help us understand better what its like developing a game show us the work you do at T10 Developers do a documentary or something on YT be very in depth help us understand the work you do T10
I think you underestimate the amount of people that are playing forza just for drifting or drag racing.
Just because you think you decide what is motorsport and what not doesn’t mean lots of players would not appreciate drift or drag content.
Forcefeeding us only circuit racing content isn’t the best solution when the game is on it’s last breaths already.
So maybe you are okay with paying money and receiving nothing more than a bland game that has more bugs than the bed in your basement but most people aren’t.
While I may be underestimating, you are ignoring the fact that turn 10 has a Drift game, it’s out and you can go play it. Horizon. So stop “Forcefeeding” Horizon content in a game that isn’t horizon. Just go play that.
