Update 12.0 Overview - Mid-Engine Month | Sep. 9 content update

Hitting a dangerous track rejoins are literally the most annoying thing ever in FRR. In answer to your question, they’ve been around since day 1.

Oponent drives off the track, does dangerous rejoin cutting trough whole track right in front of u, u have nowhere to go, hit him, bounce off into tyre barier, lose 8s, and get another 4s penalty, while he just drives off like nothing…

You’re 3rd on the board I see, there’s a 4.45 or something on there in #1 on both Overall and Hardcore

I’ve chopped another 5 seconds, I’m at 4.50 now on X Nordschleife. 8th Overall and 2nd Hardcore. On a wheel as you know :slightly_smiling_face:

I want tracks, there are loads of cars already, with not enough circuits to race them on.

There are, but they keep excluding tracks from MP playlists.

X class playlist is missing
-Limerock
-Grand Oak
-Nordschleife
-Mugello

Limerock in X class… I don’t even want to imagine carnage that would happen.

Mugello would be a good addition to X.

Altrought i don’t drive R P X, grand oak nat, Nord and mugello gp, look like great tracks for X class.

But not limerock XD this thing have no reason to egsist in classes other than EDC.

On sale again for 50% off until the 19th. Get ready for an influx of poor driving habits and fresh contact penalties.

I’m not so sure about that. I feel like the people who would be interested in this game either a) are already playing it, or b) have played it for a bit and left. I don’t feel like there’s a big untapped market for this game who are wanting to play it, but waiting for it to go on sale before they pull the trigger.

[edit] As someone who purchased the Ultimate Edition upgrade but not the game itself (I played through Game Pass), I was/ am disappointed with the game and have since let my GP subscription expire. Granted, my disappointment with FM was not the sole reason for letting it expire, but it certainly contributed to the decision.

A deep sale of 50% off or more might at some point be tempting enough for me to come back and purchase the base game, (I’m guessing people in a similar situation as me are possibly who this sale is aimed at) but a whole lot of improvements need to be made before that happens, and even then, probably not unless the discount brings it down to the $20-25 range.

@T10ManteoMax Some feedback for upcoming blogs, I think there’s some formatting improvements that can be done to the Featured Multiplayer table.

As it is, it’s missing detailed information.

I think it could be improved upon by having every individual event in a single line, similar to your forum posts each week. There is a search bar at the top that people can use to filter through.

In terms of columns, here is what I think should be implemented:

  • Series Name
  • Series Category (Featured, Spec etc.)
  • Car Class
  • Race Length
  • Starts
  • Ends

I’ve mocked up something similar to this for my Club, as I plan out what Featured Multiplayer events we do ahead of time (usually, I pick the next 4-5 weeks of race nights in line with the updates), but with a lack of detail I’m having to do guesswork on a lot of this:

The challenge hub seems to offer some easy extra credits, but the AI dont seem any different. I got pit manouvered and proceeded to be pushed sideways.lol. The usual corner carnage but didnt have any side swipes on straights so maybe there is a little change. :+1:

Why did you bore me to death with this months career? Same tracks repeated. Mugello 4 times. Laguna 3 times. Brands Hatch Indy Twice. Why couldn’t we have the whole track once? Why the most boring part twice? There are enough tracks to not do this. Completely lazy and unacceptable. Why is it always clear weather in the day in the D-R? No variation, not even morning or evening. You show me morning for practice then hahaha it’s midday. Again. Booorrrrinng. Give a little a thought it’s like 6 hrs. Try your best to keep it interesting. This isn’t cutting it.

It’s also removed from game pass, now only available on GP ultimate. So might be aimed at any players who won’t upgrade.

Interesting. Yet it’s still available via PC Game Pass for 60% of the cost of Ultimate. Not quite sure how that makes sense, but :man_shrugging:

(I’m also glad that I canceled before the extra $2/month price increase for PC GP kicked in…that was the extra little bit of incentive I needed to bail, so…thanks Microsoft)

Featured Multiplayer: Spec Event change | September 16 through October 16

When we announced Update 12, Forza GT4 was planned for Weeks 2 and 4, cycling with Forza Touring Car, in Featured Multiplayer.

After consideration and planning, we’ve made the decision to remove Forza GT4 from active Featured Multiplayer events due to the lack of cars and competitiveness within the series. In its place, the Forza Touring Car Spec Series will remain available for all five weeks. In the future, we intend on exploring alternatives to bring back Forza GT4 racing into Featured Multiplayer, for example, through a GT Multi-Class variation. We will also revisit the standalone Forza GT4 Series once we have a larger car roster to accommodate this Spec Division.

Thank you to the Forza Motorsport community for your feedback on this, we hope you enjoy the change.

I think what could help to entice people who have not bought the game is add an offline mode sooner rather than later. Im not saying its a main factor but ive heard it thrown around pertaining to this game, but more recently the test drive debacle has made it a major talking point. The crew 2 and motorfest will be receiving an offline mode as well in the near future because of this.

This game needs every bit of help it can to try and get people to come back. Sales are good but even at half price i dont think its particularly enticing.

That’s really great news. I can drive TCR every day thanks to T10. And it’s great to hear that there will be new GT4 vehicles at some point. @T10ManteoMax will the rotation in the lobby continue?

That is good news because it pissed off all those TC drivers lol… Now bend the knee for Open Class drivers… let us race all open all the time. You gave streamers and leagues spectacular in last update. Gave GT drivers the rotation they wanted by kicking out GT 4. And well its open class turn, tbh you give no love to open and thats the class for tuners that want to tune with upgrades and tuning to get the best setups for tracks and car. Just wanted to point that out.
