Jaguar F Type exhaust sound is completely wrong

Jaguar F Type exhaust sound is completely wrong. There is none of the crackling noises of backfires when you let off the gas like in real life, and I’m going to guess other cars are missing their exhaust notes as well like the new corvette. It’s like you guys stole the souls from the cars, they sound so dead compared to their real life counterparts. Could you maybe go through the cars and fix their exhaust notes and release a exhaust sound patch or something?

Actually as I’m playing it seems all cars are dead sounding

I wear ear buds when I play and out run the other cars so I can hear mine but I know what your talking about, the music is to loud and the other cars drown out yours when near them.

Is the F-Type a V6 or a V8? I think the V6 is the one that makes all of the popping and snapping sounds on overrun.

Both do I’ve test driven both, I have a friend that works as a manager at a dealership that gets a lot of high end cars so I get to play with them sometimes.

It is tragic, that in a car enthusiast game like this, that the detail on how many cylinders the car has and its displacement, are not available from within the game itself.

Of course, this topic is covered elsewhere.

But still.

I think you can very faintly hear the crackling but only ever so slightly

It isn’t as prominent as the real thing, the car in game is a lot quieter than I was expecting it to be

Honda S2000 sounds nothing like in real life when V-Tec kicks in at 6000 rpm… I have one my self and it’s really disappointing that they can’t make real sounding engines!

They’ve messed up alot of the sounds lol, dont get your hopes up on an update fixing this.

Why?

One of sound engineers has confirmed to be working on a fix for the GT350R so why not tweak the rest?

I saw this in a livestream

Because there’s alot that would need to be corrected lol, the GT350’s sound was a bug perhaps as it sounded like a V6 according to some and was way too quiet, but most of them sound like they do on purpose which wont change, it’ll just get ported over to FH3 and so on. Then again many are reporting that engine sounds are too quiet anyway so we need audio sliders at least but I guess only time will tell

I really hope so! Haven’t driven it since day one because of how it sounds

I was really looking forward to driving the GT350R but I haven’t yet either as I’m waiting for the sound to get sorted out. I was just too disappointed by the sound when I started the car in Forzavista.

The V8 F Type’s stock exhaust system is incredibly loud too I thought it was an aftermarket system first time I heard one, cos it’s verging on anti social lol

I do think there are some great sounding cars/engines in the game. Not sure how accurate they are to real life, but some do sound great.

Anything with 5 or 10 cylinders always floats my boat. Lexus LFA sounds pretty close to perfection. Screw the rest lol

Was driving the LFA last night. Normally I drive a car once in a night and keep switching it up as I complete races. Drove the LFA three in a row only because they got it sounding superb in FM6.

Completely with you on the 5 / 10 cylinder engines too!

Z06 sound is correct, but just a quieter than real life.

Try adding a Race Exhaust. Helped solve it for me.
