This! I live in the UK and drive on the left…and after years of American set open world games driving on the correct side of the road is messing with my head!
I don’t think is nitpicking, its obviously too wide. Its a video game, the road was a game design to be that wide to pass cars. Every open world game has exaggerated wider roads.
I am going to go with it is a gameplay mechanic to enable passing of AI cars, it was one of the first things I noticed as well.
The real question should be why does the freight train driving around the map do almost 100mph, why do the traffic cars in surfers paradise do almost 60mph in what wound probably be a 30mph or 35mph, and why does everyone on the freeway do somewhere around 100mph.
Horizon 2 was the same way. The roads are all ridiculously wide and incredibly boring. Driving in this game is somewhat enjoyable if you only drive in one lane, but using the whole road is only slightly more exciting than watching grass grow.
Complaining because the ingame roads are wider than real life roads…lol
Maybe the real life roads should be wider
Why not complain about the great ocean road not actually being anywhere near byron bay while you’re at it
Oh you probably already did in that thread as well…lol
Except it’s Horizon, so that wouldn’t increase the difficulty at all. You’d just go off the road for a second and then get back on once you pass the car. Going off-road rarely reduces your speed significantly or causes crashes in this game.
It’s not about realism at all for me. I just think that narrower roads would provide more engaging gameplay.
