Forza Motorsport 7: General Discussion

[neddyie118]

The monthly show is scheduled for the 17th... weird timing doing it after Fortune Island comes out.

According to last weeks WIR the Forza 7 update is due to land this week and what's included will be announced today.👍

Hopefully the update will finally obliterate all those corner cutting barriers that don't exist in the real world.

Not according to this:

I said 17th but it's actually on the 13th, which is even stranger considering it's a Thursday.

Re-read the article again, they've updated it.

The next episode of Forza Monthly will be broadcast live on Thursday, December 13. Yes, that’s the same day as the launch of the Fortune Island expansion for Forza Horizon 4 and, no, that’s not a coincidence. In addition to checking out Fortune Island with members of Playground Games, we’ll be diving deep into the upcoming Forza Race Regulations system in Forza Motorsport 7 with developers from Turn 10. We’ll also be looking at the December update for Forza Motorsport 7 as well and we’ll have a few surprises and special guests along the way.

There's probably nothing interesting in today's stream.

@neddyie118 and @-Fred- - you're both right, since it says both things.

We're past the usual time of day for news posts, and the WIR doesn't say the actual update is coming today, only the info on it. Guess we'll see.

 

[RazorSharkz]

I think the last car pack took them by surprise. Have they ever mentioned how long a car pass takes to license and develop?? Because that is probably how long it will take.

 

[PJTierney]

Here's info on the next update to Forza Motorsport 7.

Ooo yeah

 

[ALAN ULTIMATE]

Was hoping for

Drivatar custom liveries will now show in free play

 

[PJTierney]

The new UI is what interests me, not only because the game could do with a fresh lick of paint but also because it'll give us hints at what's coming to the Race Regulation system.

Would like to hear your thoughts on it since I associate you with clean design works, haha 👍
I also got excited when I read "new menus", GUIs are important.

I'm gonna go on a limb and come up with a crazy fantasy idea that has absolutely no basis whatsoever and is just pure hypothesis: They're delaying that said car pack for whenever they'll manage to tie up some sort of licensing deal with a certain Japanese brand to feature some of their historically important cars and it's brand new upcoming sportscar.



But most likely not.

 

[MarleyMoo]

Lol that's pure fantasy, but a good fantasy

 

[Populuxe]

I want to live in your fantasy world.

I know everyone is eager for that last car pack (I am, too), but I'm honestly impressed with how much new and free content they're still dropping on this game, well over a year later.

 

[-Fred-]

I know.

I think it looks better, it looks more polished

I like the flat interface. The in-race HUD is a little small but ultimately functional.

The contextual information above other cars is nice though, much better than before

 

[beyond72]

Love the new intro.

 

[PJTierney]

It's an improvement over the previous one for sure.

It's not quite what we had in the demo however, which I thought looked great (5.53 in this video):

 

[turk1993]

Forza doesn't recognise my G920 anymore, the wheel setting menu isn't even there anymore

 

[BrainsBush]

Rookie question and I know I've read it somewhere how to fix/solve...but where....my brains leave much to be desired and Google does not provide the right guidance:

After the update my CSL Elite (PS4) version is not automatically recognized anymore. I can map buttons in the control settings menu and save it. But when going on track it only seems to recognize my keyboard. When going back in setup controller menu the input device is <blank>.

Probably a human error, but which one? Thanks for your support!

@turk1993 : after posting this message I read you've experiencing exact the same 'issue'. Coincidence?

Had the same issue with Forza horizon 4 too, so i played some AC and PC2. After that i tried it again and this time while it still didn't detect my wheel i changed some setting in the advanced FFB menu. Now it works and i got a good force feedback but it still doesn't recognise my wheel properly. In Forza Horizon 4 it registers but i had the same problem for the setting and the feel on the wheel, had too tweak alot to get a decent feel.

Love the new intro.

Do you ever put rain in your loading screen just to flex on GT Sport?

 

[AlienDeathRay]

I reached 200 Million Credits! I guess I'm saving up for a tank full of sharks with frickin laser beams!

 

[beyond72]

No, just the GTS fanboys.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Had a good chuckle, but watch out. They might use that as some sort of evidence for the next Forza/GT fanwar that breaks out.
