Hey there fellow Forzaheads,
Just though I’d create a thread where we can voice our concerns about cars not sounding right in FM6 - prime examples Jag F-type and unfortunately, a Ferrari as well: the F12 Berlinetta.
Kudos to T10 for improving the V8 supecar samples as well as tweaking the overall balance of the engine/ambient sounds.
Please, let’s just leave constructive criticism for the devs - no bashing or complaining, just a few lines on which car sounds you feel are off and why.
As for me, I feel engine sounds on many cars, including some of the 70s muscle cars, sound synthesized, especially on the downshifts and as you’re climbing through the higher rev ranges - the continuous change in pitch, tone and frequency that we had in Forza 5 is missing in 6. Another example I can give you are the exhaust sounds of the ACR Viper and SRT Viper from Forza 5… they had that menacing, throaty growl on the uprevs and downshifts, particularly that uncouth “pffffthh” sound you hear from V10 and V8 muscle car exhausts.
Details like these were cut from FM6 car sounds. So please leave your feedback, specifically mentioning what you’d like to see being implemented and which cars in your opinion do not sound like the actual cars. The SLS AMG is one other car I can think of.
Hope the devs take this positively and consider revising/improving several car sounds in the next patch. Let’s keep it civil and indulge lads!
