If we put the handling aside, motorfest is literally doing everything better than horizon 6, and not to mention it actually feels like a game catered to car enthusiasts with the playlists.
i think the thing i like the most about moterfest is that trying to get better at the game in ranked honestly feel satisfying, and there are always going to be something new that i can look forward too. While forza feel likes a 9-5
honestly, once again, you put everything perfectly. the proof is there that FH6 was copied and pasted, yeah you may have just shown the UI but the same goes for Eliminator, the Playlist, the Cars. its not like the game needs a full overhaul, we just need SOMETHING NEW! apparently that new Vauxhall, IS THE SAME MODEL AS THE ONE FROM FORZA MOTORSPORT 2. dont get me wrong, i do have some hate towards Forza for this, but like you said its more dissappointment than anything i feel like. they really took Japan and said "here fine, have it"
QOTD: truthfully yes, i do still find a lot of enjoyment in tuning cars and doing the road/street/touge which is part of the reason i wish we had more. i think the street races were really well done i will give them that, and im worried that they will lock more behind one of the Expansions
4:00 It was the addition of Maui as a FREE map expansion, and then in year two we got the three small islands in the south, including a NASCAR island with a NASCAR playlist and vehicle collab, and the other two being used for the race creator called track forged, and either later this year or next year we're getting another free island expansion with a Tomb Raider collab and the addition of semi trucks as a new vehicle type.
I moved over to Motorfest and honestly the most fun I’ve had in a racing game in ages. It doesn’t take itself seriously and just feels like a celebration of cars. That’s not even including the tons of content not limited to two expansions. Don’t understand how this isn’t played by more people. Must be the Ubisoft stigma.
6:16 Ramming has become the norm in this game. The devs made it harder to report people and also AI rams you, almost like they want to encourage this behavior but idk why
yea motorfest is on top wish it wasn't live action game feels more like the player has more control handling the car with a better sense of speed better stunt shortcuts
If you want a good comparison between these games after launch take a look at militia gaming community video the difference is crazy and also a tip: dont use ur nos when its red its more powerful the more its filled
I played motorfest since about a day before early access dropped on ps5. Got the gold edition that I genuinely did not plan on getting immediately but it was really a good game to me at the time.
I don’t remember having ranked on grand races at release and the servers were pretty horrible as players would constantly disappear and i could not join my friends lobbies for a bit. Coming from the crew 2 and horizon 5 (been playing since 2) gameplay was pretty good when you played around with the settings.
Also I did not need to grind as much since i ported most of my cars from crew 2. IVT really shocked me with this game as while i loved crew 2 I always hated the physics.
In terms of horizon 6 i’m yet to play it but imo i think the worst that happened to Forza was the overwhelming success of Horizon 3. For me every forza since has just felt like “another Horizon 3”. Then since they added the eliminator in Horizon 4 and the weekly events, it’s basically been a game i’ll tune in for like 3 days to unlock the new car then stop playing for a few months until another car I want drops.
On the other hand motorfest does take quite a while for them to add the cars i want in comparison to Horizon, the playlists and map keep me playing it consistently.
It's been twelve years since forza introduced the Acura Integra and they STILL haven't added the lease bit of parts customization aside from a crapton of rims. C'mon Playground Games. This isn't 2014 anymore. And another thing, please let us change the horn of each individual car. Look at The Crew 2 and TCM, hell even the modern NFS games from Payback to Unbound. At least you can change the horn on each individual car in those games. Not to mention exhaust tips, taillights and headlights. Heck, even Midnight Club LA which, need I remind you came out in 2008, and even that had better customization. It's a shame really, because you would think for a simcade racer set in Japan, that it would have A LOT of customization.
Long time forza fan. Buuuut.. it’s very stale. I’m not a fan of the motorfest handling but I’m considering it again. I’ve tried it in the past but could t get past the arcade feel.
Horizon needs a Full Overhaul, it is already afoul of the Online Safety Act 2023 and the Digital Services Act 2026 even as it is, that is why all the Social Features are now Age Gated behind ID Proof that you are over 18, and the Online Safety Act is going to become Vastly Stricter in March 2027, and should the EU pass the KIDS Act 2027 as Written... FH6 is going to be become, Effectively, somewhat illegal to keep on Sale in the European Union.
Horizon is Failing to keep up with the Ever Changing Face of Legislation now Lawmakers in the UK and EU have woken up to the Fact the Games Industry is Completely out of Control due to US De-Regulation, is now an Active threat to Childhood, and needs to be Forced to Heel!
So, given the Potentially Catastrophic Fines that could come about due to Horizon not keeping up with Legislation, I really do think Microsoft needs to play it Safe and Sunset and Delist FH6 in the UK and the EU, put it in Maintenance Mode in the Rest of the World, Consolidate Turn 10 and the Three Playground Teams Together, cancel Fable as it is going to be a Flop, and Focus their Efforts on Rebooting Horizon in line with the KIDS Act with FH7.
The Horizon Franchise needs a Total overhaul, and they can Start by Transitioning to Unreal Engine 6, as Forzatech is now at Least 23 Years Old, is Unstable, Undocumented, Spaghetti Coded, Non Modular, Suffering Severe Code Regression, and is no longer fit for Purpose.
11:45 Buddy GTA IS the gaming industry lol. Saying Fortnite is more of a industry defining game 😂 One was a 2 year passing title vs one is still top 5 played 13 years after release. Js say you want to farm views from crying about forza bro go play your asphalt physics games.
