What I wish that forza motorsport 6 had is spoiler adjustments
In gran turismo 6 you can adjust your spoiler on your car and it will increase your aero, but why can we not in forza?
I had a PS3 but I specifically for this epic game proceeded to xbox one.
The only thing that is better in Gran Turismo 6 than in forza motorsport 6 is the spoiler adjustments
So please turn10 add spoiler modifications
Then this game will be superior
You have to add the Forza wing that is adjustable. Only the parts that are marked adjustable are adjustable. Except for tires you can adjust the tire pressure.
The adjustable wings typically on some cars allow a lot more downforce with the adjustable wings than others. But then you end up with a weird balance. The F50 is one I was using last night. You can have a lot of rear downforce and not much front downforce so the car feels very planted but the front end feels really slow to respond.
The Audi R8 LMS Ultra is like this as well. The front has a max of ~180 and the rear has about 900. It’s a very stable car in stock trim but the front end suffers through the corners. Adjusting this with suspension then causes the rear end to step out too much, very tough car to balance handling-wise.
The F50 has the usual 100 front but can have 305 on the rear. Anything over about 240 rear feels kinda useless as the car piles straight on and understeers when you accelerate out of a corner.
This is what racing drivers always jabber on about with ‘balance’. You’re better off and mostly faster with a good downforce balance than a lot of downforce bias at either end of the car as it makes it difficult to drive. Even if it means taking downforce off the car. They do it all the time in F1.
If they could give the F50 like ~150 front downforce it would be the pick of the S class field as an all rounder. It’s pretty good as it is now and one of the better ones IMHO
Perhaps you mean weer should be able to put even bigger front spoiler on the car than we have now? So it generates more downforce? But the trick is to tune the car in a way so it feels good for you.
I saw “wings” and thought Forza Wings, the new aircraft racing game sponsored by Red Bull Air Races. lol I was quite excited.
Then i realised it was about the kinda wings that push you down. I actually find myself using aero less these days as it’s doesn’t seem to have as much effect as it used to. Maybe it’s just me. I have one car with aero in Forza 6, and only had two in Forza 5. In Forza 4 I had dozens!
Yeah I hardly ever add Aero to cars myself but whenever I drive a car with Aero in FM6 I am astounded. Especially in the lower classes.
I believe it does a heap to make the more pronounced wieght transfer in FM6 more manageable. Leads me to believe there is may not be enough PI weighting if Aero in FM6.
I prefer not to have wings on road cars and just leave it up to tuning to keep the rear planted. Plus, aero upgardes make the car fairly easy to drive, not to mention how it affects top speed… unless you’ve made full weight reductions and a heckavu HP to boot.
