Ideally i would’ve liked to see at least 2 race tracks on the map. Multi-layered with multiple race routes(2-3). Maybe it’s possible they could do a scaled-down version of Hakone Circuit similar to the club circuit in FM. Although to be fair, Hakone is kind of boring. Even the main festival race track in FH5 is more fun than Hakone. The problem with 5 was that it only has 1 layout and it has to rely on the roads outside to even make it a full circuit. The race track in FH4’s Lego expansion was the closest to what i think would be nice to see in Horizon 6.
Here’s a video on youtube of the Lego racetrack in Horizon 4 for reference:
With racing circuits in game (still hoping for some official Japanese circuits in FH6) becoming popular especially via EventLab it would be awesome to create that “all in one” game that will take it leaps above the others.
In FH6 we have some fantastic open world features that frankly make it stand out. Sadly, as Forza Motorsport did not gain the same attention, it would be absolutely amazing to have circuit racing incorporated into Horizon. Adding real world circuits to the game via a DLC and having a racing centre or similar on the map where players drive to and walk in the building or at least get a menu of racing circuits around the world that they can race on and compete in multiplayer races, time attacks etc.
I can see so much potential in this. Perhaps bring the Motorsport maps across (owners of the Motorsport game get the dlc free?) and over time add to the roster. It would certainly be a lot of work on top of what you already have but you would have a game that “rules the roost” when it comes to those features especially if FH6 has the ability to have Motorsport/Sim like physics.
I doubt they can bring in maps from motorsport, for the sheer sake of game size and dev time. They’ve shown us that they’ve added a proximity radar to the game as well as Spec Racing events for multiplayer. So i’ve no doubt, they took the feedback from players in terms of merging some competitive aspects of Motorsport into Horizon. And they’ll probably be looking to potentially expand on them during post-launch.
Keep in mind, i didn’t even make this suggestion. It was a mere comment i made, which a community manager from this forum took and turned into a topic for the suggestion’s hub, so people can have something to vote on right away. From this point onward, it’s just a matter of how popular such demands are and all the little titbits along the way that need to be figured out.
