IMO PC2 should've won.
Better car list
Better track list
Better single player
Better online
The only problem I have with Pcars is that it still has a few bugs,but then again so does FM7.
Better car list?
You almost had me there.
I'm very surprised. The online racing in this is abysmal and the single player is virtually matched by project cars 2. That combined with the shameful loootbox system make it far from a racing GOTY contender.
How many of you lootbox-lie spreading people are there?
You guys just pop outta nowhere, almost as fast as untrue things pop outta your mouth.
FM7 is a joke compared to GT and PC2, it's not even the best Forza game.
You do realize more than one FM game can be better than both of them, right?
Meaning FM7 can be worse than FM6, and yet still better than another game. It's crazy.
Something tells me someone gave them $$$ to give the game the award.....
Oh look, guy named GTfan accuses people that don't vote for GT as "paid off".
That's like 7 jokes wrapped into a burrito, bro. Like a Brorrito.
You're a 7 layer Brorrito.
The only awards that aren't bought, are those won by Gran Turismo. Everybody knows that.
It's IGN.
What do we really expect?
I always see the remarks about how this award, or that award don't count.
Please provide a list of the ones that do count, so that next time, you don't appear to be stamping your feet just because it's not the result you wanted.
This brings up a good, altogether different topic; when selecting a GOTY, how awkward is it if it's inferior to its predecessor?
The Big Three (GTS, FM7, and PCARS2) all improve on certain aspects of their previous iterations, but also take steps back. GT burned up all it's "future-proof" Premium content and went on the hunt for iRacing (until the GT League about-face). PCARS2 made sure to keep the lead in terms of bugs. FM7's physics improved, it added weather, and it truly is a car encyclopedia now — but it too had some bugs around launch, and Homologation is a step back (or, at best, sideways).
If there were a Most Improved Award, I imagine F1 2017 would clinch it. Arguably WRC 7 is even more deserving — ask
@Brend!
Homologation regulates cars into more groups than ANY GT or FM game ever made.
Homologation in GT was never really possible, in any manner, so it's possible my futile efforts to homologate in GT are what make me so grateful for what FM7 has done.
It might not be perfect, it's definitely flawed, but it's way better than racing a Ford F-150 against an Audi R8 just because of a stupid "points" type system, that's for sure.
If there’s anything I can gripe about Forza 7 as a game it’s the car list’s accessibility.
Sure it would be unfair to let everyone go silly with getting cars, but what about arbitrarily locking out nearly a third of the car list months into the game’s release, repeating specialty dealer cars, and locking cars behind those damn loot crates? (Yes people don’t need to pay for them, but they will be shoehorned in more and more until they crack.)
Oh, another one.
Lootcrates, whatever you do, don't find out what they actually are or how they work, just post rampantly on the internet complaining about what you thought they might be....
You got me.
But the remaining 200 or so locked cars probably won’t be available for a really long time at the rate new cars are being cycled into the specialty dealer (they just repeated week 1), special rivals (1 - 2 cars) challenges, and Forzathons.
Alternatively, in the future, one could just open their wallet instead of waiting for an arbitrary wait cycle.
Interestingly, I actually agree with the general point, but you keep exaggerating the amount of locked cars. I have to assume either ignorance, or willfull deception.
There are around 150ish locked in total, but that isn't counting all the ones that unlock during gameplay in the drivers cups.
I dont really take IGN seriously when it comes to racing games so this a laugh to me.
Im quite enjoying Forza 7-most enjoyable racing game this year? No that (shock horror) belongs to NFS Payback.
Disclaimer: I havent played F1 2017 or ProjectCars 2 yet. And Im still waiting on PGR5 to release
Tell us which sites you do take seriously, so next time we know you're not just mad about what won.
You guys think jumping in and saying "oh those guys don't count" after an award is meaningful? It's not.
You at least have to specificy which count, before they hand awards out.
Because it just makes everything think you're just picking whoever likes your favorite game at the time as credible. (Which is actually a joke)
You're the only person to even mention NFS, do you think giving even a tiny reason why you like it could help?
Anything is better than "that sites a joke, I like game x, and this award doesn't count", or whatever else springs to mind.
