It's too bad the driving part of that driving game sucks so much. (Yes I've tried it. No they aren't exactly the same. I much prefer the handling in FM.)

Damn if it isn't impossibly pretty.

Who? Seriously who said they were the same?

And ... now I want a TVR.

I love rolling shots in this game. Is that on the xbone?

No one specifically, just trying to counter arguments before they start.

I know it uses the same physics as FM5, on the XBone at least anyway; which is where I tried the demo, but the handling model is far too much arcade physics.

I don't mind the easy drifting, it's the asinine floaty front steering that pisses me off. Why do they have to make it impossible to place the car where you want to?

I don't agree with that assessment but whatever you are free to dislike what you want. I personally think the driving is brilliant, not better than FM5 though which is my favourite driving model but I can guarantee that no one will say the drive the same.

Exhibit A:

You don't get flying Mclarens at Spa.

I gave it a fair chance, but the Lambo they throw you in immediately did not steer how I felt it should. The front had no grip so I was always plowing into corners even when I tried to slow down.

If you're going to make an arcade racing sim, then make the brakes hilariously good. They already made it too easy to slide the back around, so lets just pretend physics don't exist at all.

Then I tries the Bowler. No thanks.

I'll stick with FM. You all can have Horizon. I am not a fan.

I'm not so good at rolling shots. Still shots on the otherhand,

Correction, now you want a TVR more.

You should always have a baseline want for a TVR.

To be honest, I wasn't enamoured with the physics from what I sampled from the demo. I think they picked some pretty bad cars to give a feel of what the game is actually like. It's definitely not as responsive as FM5, but one you get behind the wheel of some good cars, it's a lot better than the demo led me to believe. I wouldn't mind a little more precision, but I've gotten used to it and have logged a ton of hours so far because it's just too much fun.
