Think that varies per person, though. FM7 definitely has a lot of content but I wasn’t the biggest fan of the physics. Everything felt like it understeered, though Forza in general has always seemed to veer towards more understeery cars. I guess the best way I can explain is it that cars felt both heavy and literally glued to the ground, and not in a good way.

Yes, the physics were understeery for sure, but GT7 however has a big thing with oversteer physics. Even in the current updates, cars feel in some cases twitchier than they should be.

I'd argue FM7 makes GT7 racing in low SR lobbies look like the cleanest thing on Earth.
Subjective thing. GT7 does a lot better than FM7, and FM7 does some better than GT7 (namely in terms of variety).

and that I wouldn't know, I don't play online as I prefer single player gameplay.

and here's the thing I'll say to both of you, when I said that statement; I'm talking about the overall experience. GT7 for sure does a bunch of things better than FM7 (livery editor, online, photo mode, visuals). However, FM7's single player experience in my mind is better, it was longer and gave me more stuff to do. The arcade mode racing also paid a lot better, I can definitely say the economy was less ridiculous and made it not a complete grind to save up for cars. Engine Swaps weren't locked behind a stupid roulette system and you can swap your drivetrain. The car selection is still bigger and with more variety, plus more modern cars versus what GT7 has now and iirc; you could sell cars you didn't want or auction them away.

and Forza Motorsport 7 isn't even my favorite Forza (I like FM2 & 4 more), but my point is that GT7's state right now makes that game look good in comparison.

Well if this is their idea of a major update....oh dear.

But why would PD tell some racing leagues in Jordan that? Also, how are you privy to this?

I know that's why I'm worried about it.


I'm close with several drivers in their league. Met a few of them through the Formula Drift style drift competitions we used to host.

Their league had to transfer over to GTSport back in May because GT7 wasn't stable enough.

PD -> Governing Body -> Event Managers & Teams -> Drivers.

Speaking of issues, weather radar seems to be broken in my current Spa race. Haven't seen this happen pre-patch (but fwiw it also was working in the neo-classic events, which rains).

Mine broke in Neo Classical events but works fine in WTC700 Le Mans.
 
Anyone got any advice on how to win the neo classic if you don't have the 787b? I've only got the toms supra to use in that event and it's thirsty. I finished fifth at the first race and second in Austria. The car has the mid range turbo also and it seems to be quick enough it's just to thirsty, any advice on what to do or other compatible cars would be great, thanks.

Does anyone know where this song plays in the game? I don't think I've heard it once yet beyond the in-game songlist

Would have been a really good fit for GT Auto instead of the obnoxious 'The Entertainer" remix they have of his. Shame, missed opportunity.

It can also be heard on the lobby mode.

No way... I really like Lenny Ibizarre's interpretation of The Entertainer!
Speaking of songs that should of been in GT Auto, I've got something:


Why is it only available on the licence menu??? The way they showed the music in that State of Play video was just spectacular.

We've been playing with the Super Silhouette for a while. I'm very happy that we finally got the GT500 :cheers:

The lobbies are still unstable, host migration is still not an option, race status (ie. is a lobby currently running a race) is not implemented, entering a lobby and entering/exiting the pits still causes lag spikes, tagging players in-chat is still not an option...


This was supposed to be their redemption month. The next major quality of life update is sometime between now and October 😒😒.

yes the lobby user info still needs some tweeks, it is frustrating to find a good race & venue, watch the remaining laps for it to be closed ! - but the upgrades to the custom races are great, its like a whole new game in itself, as we can pick from our garages 19 other cars with their unique liveries, add the names, set the race fuel/tyre parameters & all importantly save it all to go back & re-run - it also allows the same cars & set ups to load/transfer to other tracks - you can even use a different car to enter the same set ups...........it is indeed my friend, Christmas :) .......................maybe in the future we`ll get to be able to pick a series of races, name the tournament & set the points structure, at the moment its pen & paper

Cheers
 
Has anyone ever mentioned before that the racing karts can’t refuel?

EDIT: Also, these custom races are great. And the BoP is vastly improved imo. The AI also seems better, but only by a bit. This was a solid update.

Also, the Skyline Silhouette is very fun to use…I’m hoping for more Group 5 cars!

Another update, 3 more cars, and still no fix for the 2 player split screen issue...

Also, the more I play it the more it seems that the Missions races are just unfair...

I've been trying that race in the Human Comedy section with the Miata's at Tsukuba and after reviewing the replay after having run what felt like a great race and being lapped TWICE by the leader and once by positions 2 and 3 I couldn't believe what I saw...

58 second laps on 19 lap old soft racing tires with the x10 wear modifier in the rain that is sketchy to drive in on full wets...

No only should that car have ZERO grip on what is the equivalent of 190 lap old soft tires in a heavy downpour but to run those lap times over that long a stint you would be out of fuel as well...

There is zero chance that it's working in any way that's supposed to be fair...

Every single attempt is different but positions 1, 2, and 3 are just constantly running far too fast to be adhering to the regulations and limits for that race...

It's just frustrating to feel like you dont have a single chance in hell because you're up against AI that really looks to be cheating for artificial difficulty...

This isn't what i signed up for...

Sorry for the rant but I'm reaching the end of my rope with this game...

It's so broken that all i want to do anymore is drive with my friends in split screen because the cars feel good to drive now but I can't even do that...

I'm sorry mate but if you're being lapped twice around Tsukuba thats not on the game, that's on you. If it was that impossible, nobody would complete it.

Try the Radical SR3, it's very good on fuel, keep it on Sport tires and easy win
