The community is unhappy with Forza Motorsport
The announcement of this new update didn’t really go unnoticed by the community, which didn’t fail to express its displeasure. Regarding the circuit, some criticize the developers that it should be offered as soon as the game is released and that it is not the most interesting. Others have suggested that the game’s representation of Daytona International Speedway is not faithful to reality, particularly in regards to pit exits and the absence of tire walls.
But the circuit isn’t the only issue this weekend. Many players regret the lack of content offered in this update, but especially the absence of important bug fixes. Ash, an expert content creator on Forza, didn’t mince his words.
I know it has to be said, but I’d rather patch the game than patch the game, I know I speak for myself but also for many others, that’s not what we need right now.. .
Another active player who writes under the alias smosis_sniper expressed his dissatisfaction with the circuit. “Oh cool yet another recycled circuit, voluntarily removed from the game to be reinstated in the trickle, worse and oval circuit… yawn” he wrote, a message since validated by others.
On the game’s official forums, the comments are pretty much the same. battery992, one of the most active members, quickly reacted to this new update and posted a message that is the most “liked” in the community.
This update is a real message to the community…
After this update, we have to wait another month for the much needed bug fixes or any other changes to the game…
We’ve got tracks that were meant to be in the game from the start, and some older cars that are just coming back to the roster…
It was vacation time, so they have one last chance with me, if update 5 is still the same, it will be goodbye from me…
And with the number of players like FM, every player needs…
Players also recall that more than 1000 bug tickets have been created and it has already been three months that replays have not worked properly and the AI has been singled out. The situation seems very critical for the game but the developers have promised a change in 2024. As mentioned recently, Forza Motorsport will be getting three big changes with an improved progression system, improved rules and penalties, and improved artificial intelligence. It remains to be seen if all this will not be too late and will be enough to restart the machine.
