Comment on Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out
brucethemoose@lemmy.world 1 day agoHorizon 5 rallying feels great, but only on long-travel suspensions that don’t bounce like a cartoon.
Try the RJ Anderson #37 Pro2 truck, soften the suspension/tires, fatten the rear tires and take on that downhill mountain course. It’s utter bliss. I like the Ford Ranger T6 too.
…But yeah, it’s too arcadey. The campaign is so sycophantic and stupid, and MP matchmaking racing is so broken. I’ll probably skip 6 too.

Forza just kinda lost its racing appeal, I think. The settings are great, the visuals are great, the vibe is usually good, if a bit corny, but Forza has just turned into a hardware showcase with a good-if-dated physics model there. I don’t think anyone is playing Forza Horizon because the racing is great, and that is kinda the crux of my issue with it.
Which sucks, cause I played the HELL out of FM2, FM3, especially FM4, and they have just kinda coasted since. The most recent Motorsport was supposed to boast some robust online ranked racing, and it was the most measly ranked system in existence, penalties weren’t consistent, and the game has basically died out, even as of 2024.
