The improvements they have made to the core driving mechanics are instantly noticeable. Going through corners is so much more smooth instead of being lunged off the track for what feels like it wasn't your fault.
The new AI is also much better. It still needs work as during allot of races you'll end up with 3 cars off into the sunset. You can also bully them off the track without even touching them which is kinda funny. They obviously need to not interrupt the player but they also need to stand their ground a little bit.
The car tuning is ok. I personally don't mind the car level system. Gradually building your car is actually quite fun and adds an extra layer of gameplay. But car points can go out the window. I have millions of credits so let me buy the parts. It makes car tuning over restricted and tedious. Car levels are already enough to get the result they are looking for. Why over complicate things..?
I think car levels are a good way to introduce more people into tuning. More people will take the time to learn how to adjust suspension, gears and so on. If more players understand how these things work then they can adjust them for different tracks and weather conditions, increasing their laptimes.
One thing that really annoys me with Forza is the engine swapping is just so lazy. You can throw any engine into any car. Your not restricted to the size of the chassis. You can basically make any car into anything which removes each car having its own unique identity. This completely contradicts the hole idea of the builders cup series on building so many unique cars.
If you are in a Golf then you should only be given engine swaps that fit a Golf.
Builders cup is quite fun. Thou it's better just to select the car, go into rivals and level up to 10 or so. That way you can actually compete in the 1st couple races.
The penalty system is good and definitely 1 of the better ones around in racing games at the moment. It would be even better if it could detect non contact fouls thou. And disqualify overly aggressive racers. It's not 100% accurate yet. These systems do take time in the battle field so the Devs can continue to collect data and make adjustments as time goes on.
I do believe Turn 10 in time will make this 1 if not the best entry into the Forza series. I believe Forza Motorsport should be more realistic. The silly stuff like a a tow rope increasing handling, car points, installing a spoiler on a car with an electric foldout wing and not to mention turning any car into a Bugatti sleeper all needs to stop. Forza Motorsport needs to distance itself from Horizon because otherwise it just becomes Horizon without the fun stuff.
