Update 9.0

As of update 8, I predicted new & recycled cars as spotlight cars. Yet, there is 1 Caterham car that is a spotlight car we already had since launch but ok.

Update 9 track prediction, it’s either going to be the following 9 real tracks that are currently remaining:
Bathurst
COTA
Long Beach
Monza
Motegi
Road Atlanta
Sebring
Sonoma
Tsukuba

Those remaining 9 real tracks are from FM4-FM7. We’ll only see 1 track in update 9, so it has to be one of them.

My other prediction: Forza Motorsport has to add a reward car dealership for people who missed out on those reward cars from the past updates. Maybe not Update 9 but later in the future.

Luckily I got every reward cars as of update 7, but I do feel bad for the people who missed out on those reward cars.

Also no more rubbish ovals or fantasy tracks

I only cared about the Pagani, all the rest of the reward cars are NOT WORTH MY TIME. Not going to spend hours grinding for yet another Porshe or BMW or Audi.

As for Content…

How about just a good game, if not that give me bleeping overall hot lap scoreboards to inspire me to give a carp about this game. Yes I am fishing for comments.

Leaderboards in the constructors cup.

Multiplayer racing with damage, and more diverse.

Races with restrictions for P or R.

Change of more accessible menus. And add the racing performance option.

Offline and online championships and leagues.

I don’t think so, since LMP1 cars were available in the 1st tour (track tour) back at october 2023.

Why can’t they do P1 twice?

On a serious note I hope they fix what broke when Hotfix 8.1 was applied, none of the below issues were present in update 8, only after the Hotfix for PC was downloaded and installed

Interior engine sounds are around 50 percent less than before the Hotfix and have to turn down all the other audio setting to hear the players engine.

When exiting back to the main menu after a race or rivals the game hangs on the loading screen with the pinwheel and the Windows loading cursor appears moments after, then you have to manually end Forza in the task manager of which hangs as well until the window that says the application has stopped responding. The program may respond if you wait, Do you want to end this process?. This has gone from every couple of races a few days ago to every single time as of today.

Prismacolors are completely off since the 8.1 hotfix

In race when you pause and go to settings menu then tab across the tabbing has lag which lands you on graphics and then it asks you if you would like to save these settings, as you tab right and land on graphics it will change the settings to High from Medium tabbing right and vice versa which is super annoying.

What exactly was in that Hotfix that could possibly cause all of these issues @T10ManteoMax ???

I’d settle with all of the above being fixed in Update 9 if there’s not another Hotfix before then as the game is now pretty much unplayable.

Shooting a ticket off to support is a waste of my time and theirs as all issues above have not been present since launch and I have not changed any settings. Support will just tell me to visit Here or Here or even Here and then I’ll end up back here and be told to start a thread in the TSHUB for each bug caused by the 8.1 Hotfix and asked to vote it up and if it doesn’t get enough votes it will not be looked at and months will pass then @JetPartySalad will ask are the issues still happening.

Sigh

It’s all a bunch of issues that ABSOLUTELY should have never made it into the game if there was ANY sort of testing before releasing these downgrade upgrades into the game. There’s no way anyone can convince me there is any testing going on before they decide to release this stuff.

My “wish” is for Sebring, since we have most of the TA1 cars now.

Realistic would be something else, since they rarely go with the most popular in voting.

When the game hangs while transitioning from rivals to the home space, have you tried pressing the windows key? That seems to work for me. I am using the Steam version, if that makes any difference.

Just tried it then and it doesn’t make any difference apart from speeding up the do you want to end this process tab

Hello everyone.
I have changed the poster of this topic to Cadillac V-series.R #2 because of le mans 2024.

I’ll take any track and 10 new cars in D, C, and B Classes. Actually throw A in that too. Fix the Porsche 550 glitch, get rid of the Exocet in B class. I can deal with the Miata and there will always be a META but the Porsche and Exocet are broken. Fix, rebalance, wipe those cars from leaderboards and MP. Do that and I don’t think I could be much happier!

Aww but I’ve managed to get into the top hundred on Lime Rock in my Exocet against the other Exocets with a top tune :rofl:
