Multiplayer:
Through lobby settings will we be able to force certain assists ON instead of just forcing them off like in previous games?
For example, forcing players to use regular manual instead of manual with clutch.
Will drag racing be a part of career mode and if so have you fixed how it works? In FM7 you donât stop the timer until well after the finish line. Thatâs not how drag racing works. The time needs to start when the tree goes green and stop as you cross the finishing line. If youâve fixed it awesome. If not, why?
Will there be additional features and functionality added to Forza Motorsport post launch as a part of the live service? Like how ray tracing was added for the PC version of Horizon 5?
Have you finally fixed the car models?
Previous Forza releases were listed as âXbox Play Anywhereâ titles if the digital version was purchased.
Will this release be the same? Will a digital purchase allow me to install on both Xbox and PC from 1 purchase?
A:
Q: Does Forza Motorsport on Steam require an Xbox account?A: Yes, an Xbox account is required to play Forza Motorsport on Steam. This enables our cross-play and cross-progression features, as well as shared achievement unlocks.
Q: How does cross-play and cross-progression work in Forza Motorsport?
A: Forza Motorsport save data is stored securely on our online servers. You can access your game profile across all platforms and for the first time, continue your racing journey across Xbox and Steam. Players across both PC and console can enjoy Featured Multiplayer and Free Play Private Lobbies together with Forza Race Regulations enabled to ensure a clean racing experience.
Q: If I purchase Forza Motorsport add-on content on Xbox, will I receive it for free on Steam, and vice versa?
A: No, only your profile save data is synced across Xbox and Steam. Your game entitlement and add-on content purchases are separated between Microsoft Store and Steam. However, content acquired on the Microsoft Store will be available on both Xbox Series X|S and PC.
Will we be able to flash lights or use horns?
There will obviously be hundreds of cars in this game.
Whilst I appreciate that your career mode is promoting the consistent use of 1 car to learn it and build it up, one of the things that annoyed me immensely about past games was being tied to 1 particular car for a 5 race championship or similar.
With so many cars, I want to try driving as many as possible, and get comfortable with only certain cars and their tunes that I might find along the way.
Does the career mode give you the flexibility to try a variety of cars or switch between them during championships, and how does it do this? Does it allow you to try many different progress paths at any time? Or when we commit to progressing a car, how long would we topically have to stick with it?
Seems like an awfully low amount of answers compared to how many questions have been asked.
Are you guys going to keep up to date with the community questions after opening a thread asking the community about their questions or just let this die out�
In addition, the questions answered above are all questions coming from the developers (FAQ), not the community.
Following â because Iâm also looking for an answer this this question. Pretty crazy that no Forza game has supported this feature yet; but the last two Gran Turismoâs have.
Yes, serious question here:
Is Forza Motorsport going to release with missing features and buggy wheel support?
A: Forza Motorsport features improved force-feedback for wheel users and takes advantage of advanced wheel features to display RPM, shift lights and race data on custom screens. See our Wheel support topic for info and updates.
Will we see the ability to import Scaleable Vector Graphics (SVGs) in the new game?
I have pre-ordered the new Forza Motorsport Premium edition, besides being able to start the game 5 days earlier, are there any other rewards? Like a pre-order player bonus car or some CR?
A: Everyone who has played a previous Forza Motorsport or Forza Horizon game will receive the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Forza Edition and Faithful Fan Driver Suit
Will there be certain optimisations for the xCloud version of Forza Motorsport to improve accessibility, like touch input and tilt controls? (Sea of Thieves is an example of this)
Are the Objects on the track synchronized?
In FM7 things like signs and tires, or Camera movement and Helicopter are not synchronized between players. Often one player has a sign laying on the track, and another one a few seconds behind him not.
Assists:
- Will Forza Motorsport feature an âauthenticâ option for assists, that automatically turns assists on/off depending on if a car you drive has those assists in real life?
I believe this was in Project CARS 2.
If you get into a car which has ABS in real life, it turns ABS on, and when you swap to a car without ABS it turns ABS off.
Will the DLC vehicles be free in game or do we have to earn them?
Can AI cars be added to custom multiplayer lobbies, to help fill up the grids?
Will Forza 8 have Forza Vista with voice over introductions similar to Forza 6, or will it be silent like Forza 7?
