There are a lot of good suggestions in the suggestion forums that do not have many votes. I wanted to list some here, but please take the time to go through the suggestion forums and vote for the things you feel important. They do look at it, which means only those topics voted on are getting noticed. Obviously these are ones that matter to me (except for drifting, I just feel for the drifters not having the support they deserve). Add ones that matter to you in replies.
We have had spec series rival races on occasion, but for those of us whose focus is on spec races, these are huge and can also give a good glimpse into balance.
These reflections are very distracting to cockpit drivers, not realistic since in real life with real depth preception you can look past them, and not other view has to deal with them.
Roof camera is a popular camera on various racing games, and probably the most popular on GT7. No reason for it to not be an option on Forza.
The default settings are awful and turn off many wheel players new to the game given how difficult they are to understand.
Another cockpit quality of life issue, but everyone could benefit from better headlight illumination.
They are moving towards supporting drift players. Open drift lobbies only make sense as this is huge to many Forza players.
Transparency on ratings is a mainstay of pretty much any racing game with them.
GT2 BoP isn’t too bad, but the Porsche is way too OP and the Ford GT and Ferrari need help.
This would really help endurance multiplayer races.
I’d prefer a working rating system, but last second consilidation of the smaller lobbies would at least give us fuller lobbies.
The real solution to the current matchmaking mess.
GT3 BoP isn’t too bad, except 2 cars. The NSX and 15 Lambo need addressing.
Again, transparency. No reason to not know what tire strat your opponents are using.
Good one. Couldn’t agree more. Having to remove a tune to adjust FFB and sterring lock to then reapply it is one of the most irritating things for someone wanting to use another’s shared tune. The rest as options would be awesome.
Thank you for including my post about Public Drift Lobbies. I hope others feel the same and Forza will one day bring the mode back. Hopefully it will be like the past and include RWD, AWD, and Open drift lobbies, and not just one type of drift lobby with a restriction on car type or class. I used to love taking out of place cars and making them drift. Like building a FWD car into a RWD drift machine, or making an old Ferrari AWD and hooning it around the track. With drifting I don’t always want restrictions. I just want to simply have the freedom to build a drift or hoon car and slide around in a public lobby.
For me drifting on Motorsports was relaxing yet competitive, and although I do have a sim wheel setup for circuit racing I prefer to drift with a controller, relaxing in my PC chair building and testing the cars for hours before hopping into an online lobby.
If this was brought back to Motorsports then I will return as well. Otherwise I will just continue to do my circuit racing on AC or Iracing with my sim rig.
To me, drifting and racing are mostly two different crowds. Drifters are very passionate and make up a huge part of the younger and more casual crowd Forza needs to bring in. Even when there is cross-appeal for racers that drift or drifters that race, I feel like you are more likely to lose them by excluding drifting than pushing them into the racing multiplayer experience. So overall it is always a net loss. And it’s not like they even created a proper system for the dedicated hardcore racers either.
You raise a good point that I hadn’t really considered. I’m kind of in the middle of the two crowds and would probably be considered part of the older Forza players, but enjoy the relaxing causal nature of previous Motorsport drift lobbies. When I do want serious racing I will hop on AC or iRacing with my rig, because like you mentioned “it’s not like they even created a proper system for the dedicated hardcore racers either.” If a proper system did exist I would likely make the switch. But without it, and the lack of public drift lobbies I don’t really have any reason or desire to play.
To shed some light on old topic(s). People view the post why can’t they vote? Anyways here some stuff a few of us have been investigating and working on.
Engine sounds is a wow factor for me. Have to sound real, aggressive, loud. I don’t want to drive a Ferrari or Camaro or mustang and it sounds like a Honda civic or my weedwacker. Gona put it in the game do it right be original and authentic. Soft as the audio is now it’s like an app saying volume too high damage to hearing, you just let me be the judge of that. they sound to fake and computer created or using some other companies fake generated sounds instead of recording the actual exhaust pipe… I was making a lot of posts to have more authentic sounding cars but no one voted hardly so I said to my self why bother and just stopped posting. If I get some votes thanks
