Forza 5 was such a monumental let down.
Here are a few things wrong with it. I'll struggle to buy 6 after 5. They need to sort it out.
- No qualifying which means I have to annoying work my way through the pack each race....
- No practise
- No pit stops
- No tyre wear
- No fuel simulation
- No night time
- No Weather
- A tiny selection of tracks
- No Kart racing
- No proper full championships
- Career mode is only 2-4 laps, there is no substance to it, just feels like a grind to unlock cars that is there for paid DLC
- You cannot just race the cars you want, I just want the F1 car, however it's a massive grind or a crap load of money away for just one car
- No way to quit out, change car or do anything until the game has loaded the next track in career mode
- That stupid cutscene every time you finish a race that just wastes time
- No way to skip the annoying Top Gear stuff
- No support for the G27.... like wtf? It just means I have to use a controller, which SUCKS when you turn off assists... this alone RUINS the game. I'm not spending another couple hundred on a wheel just to use for one game on a console that can clearly support it
- The music sucks
- Every time you look around while racing, there is this weird audio glitch sound
- Not a fan of any of the views, I want to be able to custom put a camera where I want on my car, I wanna be up on the roof
- The menu design is just slow and cumbersome
- The Online menu design is crap, there are no player counts, I cannot see where the players are, no way to chat to them out of lobbies, it just feels like the single player game.
- Kinect used as a mic... no disable it!
- The whole friends interface is annoying
- I've come across no full online races, only ever a couple laps
- The Drivatar stuff sucks, they don't drive properly, brake in odd places, crash into you and just feel so scripted, like there is always one guy who runs off way ahead and I end up in second all the time because I've had to navigate traffic thanx to no qualifying
- 2D clouds, not volumetric
- 2D crowds
- Low resolution reflections
- Low res, low fps mirrors
- The glass cracking looks like a cartoon
- Damage is just so limited and feels rather fake, constantly just get the same faults, it doesn't feel dynamic at all
- There is just nothing to do but grind... there is no substance to the game, no reason to want to keep playing, especially without wheel support for one of the most popular wheels, the G27.
