If you are going to troll, at least use complete sentances so some people might take you seriously.

Are you kidding me ? There is like a gazillions improvement in the game. The only thing missing is night racing which I don't care about.

Umm there's a lot of variety in racing mode, really lots of stuff to do. Ai changed quite a lot since FM3 too, time of day change too, ok maybe not night racing but that dont bring a lot anyway to racing for me honestly. Lots of settings to play wiht too so I dont see how you can say it dont perform in simulating driving.

Night racing and night racing are, according to T10, out because it's too time consuming and too demanding on the hardware. They didn't want to sacrifice performance, from what they've said.

Again: What?
 
Current complaint list or wishlist for Forza 4 / Forza 5. This is very small compared to the list I made in F3. They did a very good job with F4.

1. I would love to see the weather effects from PGR4, F1 2011, or Dirt 3 in Forza 4.

2. Day / night would be nice on some of the tracks but it doesnt have to be on all tracks.

3. Take the vinyl top of the 69 Camaro!! Or give us the option to take it off the car.

4. Allow us to make the trucks AWD. Makes no sense that a truck cant have this option when all of the trucks in this game came with 4wd. I havent tried this yet but it was one of my complaints in F3.

5. Fully adjustable seat position symilar to Test Drive Unlimited.

6. Allow us to load our setups online like we did in F2. I have only played private matches in F4 so far but we should be able to grab our car THEN pick the tuning setup. Not tuning setup then dig through the list of cars to find the car we want. Thats backward and very clunky.
 
Personally I think Forza 4 is a big step forward from Forza 3. The cars feel more natural, they got rid of that blinding white backgroud and they gave us back the ability to create a custom public lobby, all good things.

My big dissapointment right now is that there is a bug related to Fanatec Wheels which causes many races to award 0 credits and xp. Yesterday I ran quite a few races and ended up getting paid for less than 1/2 of them. :(

Hopefully they will get this fixed right away.

I like the car affinity points which allows you to get free upgrade parts as I used to spend millions tuning cars was not uncommon for me to buy a 20k cr car and end up with 1 mil or more in it only to discover that is was not competive and have to build something else.

I also like that they finally got rid of that level 50 cap, was kinda stupid before as you could get to level 50 in less than a week and then nothing more. GT5 only goes to 40 but it sure takes a while to get there.

What is the level cap now? That was one of my complaints too but I wasnt sure for F4 so I didnt put it on my list. If its over 50 thats awesome!
 
Yes, Night Racing or Night/Day(for Le Mans style) would of been nice BUT having said that the game has improved quite dramatically and is so fluid to play that the things mentioned here don't make me dissapointed in any way.
 
They also give you a selection of cars at each level, hoepfully it continues all the way to the cap, so far I am only up to level 32 due to so many races robbing me of credits and xp. I have found however that a 2 lap online race around the ring does pay out everytime [so far at least] and the award is pretty good so until they get this bug fixed or a workaround is found I guess I will be practicing on the ring more of ten than not.

I hit 20 last night and was thinking that I only had 30 more prize cars to win but if the level cap is 150 then I still have 130 more cars to win. :)

Why are car model interiors for 50% of cars still off and generic? Reply starting to.doubt my purchase.
Click to expand...
I assume you are talking about GT5? And thats actually 80%. ALL the interiors views for every car I have used looks VERY good in F4. Almost as good as the Shift 2 interiors. And imo Shift 2 has THE best interior views out there. Dirt 3 interiors are great too but Forza 4 is right up there in the top competition for best interior views.
 
It's awful. It's like they are trying to.score meta points and not improve their game. Im a sim racer and blogs like ign cudnt give a crappy bout what makes a sim gud. I want a race sim with rules and regulations and not car bowling/ soccer. For once they should try to branch out instead of leaching.of shift nfs and gt
 
WOW LOL, I must say, GT5 2.0 was so disappointing you two (know who you are) came here to start a "disappointment" thread but its backfiring hard. Hopefully ONE of you actually play the game and put the fanboy back in a locked footlocker.

edit:I have a strong feeling one of you will see this game is actually quite an awesome racing simulator and then come back to read threads started like this and see them for the fail that they are.
 
I really don't see how you can list weather or night racing as a disappointment since they were never in to begin with. Although I guess when you are really grasping at straws complaining about things that weren't said to be in the game at any point works fine.

My complaints.

- Still no proper drag racing, the drag tires and body kits are a good start, but it's still horrible without staging.

- No custom Rivals challenges, the T10 ones are a blast but I would have liked to make my own as well.

- Bigshot pics are too big to upload on every hosting site I've tried.

- The edge of the grass right along the track has the super grip thing going on. I like it to prevent track cutting but hate that I get slowed down to 20mph because I put two tires slightly on the grass coming out of a corner. It also seems the rumble strips also have this effect going on although not as much.👎

- A.I. on Track Day mode is on rails, I understand it probably would take a good amount of processor power to have them drive like the normal A.I. but it's a real pain passing on the inside and having one run into you blindly.

^ That is how you make a complaint list.

You know what makes a game awesome. 98 Mazda Miatas.

Maybe GT5 should branch out and actually add the cars people want to drive.
 
One big disappointment I have is with the wheel upgrades. I've only seen I think 2 new wheels in the lot. The rest have all been carried over from FM3. I'm a BBS whore mostly and I wanted the LM, LM-R, RS, etc etc and we got I think only the same 3 as before. :indiff:
This is the same with many other wheel manufacturers... HRE has a slew of awesome wheels but we have only 2. ATS and Borbet is limited to the same wheels as are practically a bunch of the wheel brands. Is it a licensing thing or did T10 only remodel the same wheels and add the 2 or 3 new ones? More to come via DLC?

Not really disappointed in other things aside from I wanted more aftermarket (and OEM) kits. The mk3 vr6 gti is awesome but no aftermarket/oem upgrades, just the standard Forza front and rear spoiler.
 
cuco33 I agree with this as well, I think some things were compromised for time and quaility. I was disappointed to see the same wheels, but I is a very, very minor disappointment within the package of the entire game.

Yup drag racing still isnt "right" even with the new "drag" tires.

One of the new tracks has that problem on the very last sweeping right turn. Forgot the name of the track but I know what you are talking about. And it happens if you barely touch that spot with any tire at all.
 
Such an thread in the Forza section is useless because FM gamers always think their game is perfect...

Take a look in the GT5 section, even though we love GT, we also talk about the dark sides of the game...

*is waiting for the comment "just because Forza is perfect and GT not" * ;)


Edit: Still waiting for my LCE, hopefully getting it tomorrow...

I do believe that the cap for receiving level up cars is set at level 50. I am quite sure I read about it in one of the under the hood segments in forzamotorsport.net.
