Some ideas for the devs

So, new to the forums but long time player.

I have a few things to pitch.

  1. Custom route waypoints for free roam that allow players to draw their own waypoint manually from a starting point to an end point.

  2. More freeroam activities besides head to heads or official events. Random races where the player draws the route would be better and more freeroam games/challenges like tag or follow the leader? Cops & Robbers? Spontaneous things like head to head races that aren’t head to races, lol.

  3. Add car filters like you did with “duplicates” but for “DLC” and “Exclusives”. Might as well add one for “Barn Finds” as well. Easy things most likely that I feel like many people would appreciate. Things you never knew you wanted type stuff.

  4. This is just a general suggestion and one you are well aware of. Make more interesting maps/worlds. The cars feel good, they sound good (for the most part, lol), and the gameplay itself is great especially with minimal assists (man w/clutch, sim steering, etc.) The world we drive in though? It feels bland after driving places once or twice. Nothing feels “alive”. The AI are pretty dumb, the traffic is meh, the locations are just nice to look at but there’s nothing to really DO or actually interact with. No secret pathways off map to discover. No real content besides the cars themselves and the nice visuals (which btw are AMAZING). You guys have proven time and time again that your cars are top notch and your handling model is quite supreme, even as a simcade. Now, show us you can do more. Next Forza Horizon, just keep doing what you already do with the cars and pretty sights, but really build a WORLD, not just places to drive. Build a game that makes players WANT to drive places and go do things more than a couple of times.

save button for map/garage filter

filter cars in garage by tire type (drag,drift,rally, etc)

paint by body part edit:(wheels and brakes as well)

instead of new races altogether run them in reverse for OPEN/TOUR

I agree with #4. The Mexico map is pretty meh. The Dev’s need to play Need for Speed Heat and Burnout Paradise remastered to see what a great map looks like.

All I ask is to have the car types to be alphabetically listed instead of a complete chaotic fashion like the status quo.

Btw, there is an area in this forum for suggestions (suggestion hub → fh5 suggestions in this case). If you add them there (one by one) other people can vote for them.

Welcome to r/forza. Your ideas have been noted, but “we” here cannot guarantee any consideration will be given to what you’ve recommended. All the best. :slight_smile:

I have a suggestion for the developers:

Seconded (infinitely so I expect :wink: ) …not that I have the least bit of belief it will be done.

At least it could be an option for those who want it in the sort menu. I prefer them by the year like they are.

Maybe I mistook the meaning. I was thinking the categories of Classic Muscle, Track Toy, Cult (or is that Classic Cult ? :wink: ), etc. that are listed with absolutely no logic that I’ve been able to pierce (not that I’ve tried too hard) and make it a pain in the trunk when a challenge calls for something like Super GT…

…scroll down the list slowly or miss what you’re looking for, still miss it because reasons, scroll back up, realize you didn’t go all the way to the bottom and maybe that’s where it is, scroll down there quick, nope, not there, scroll very slowly up the entire list cursing PGG and realizing how much more “player interaction metric” this is driving… :bulb: …oh, now it makes sense.
