But seriously those puddles will GET YOU. Also, they have put in a lot of new barricades on the tracks to stop people from exploiting the insides of corners. Pictures below to show what I mean.
No more just flying straight over that crest.

So do I really need to get this game?

Considering that they still can’t figure out how to give someone a time penalty for cutting a corner, I’d say no. Still an arcade game.

Indeed, with all the dlc for forza 5 I feel like I already have this game.

I just finished a series which was nothing but rain in touring cars. I haven’t concentrated this hard in a game for a long time.

Aw, shoot...I liked flying over that crest...
...when it didn’t send me flying out of control into an Orlove, at least.

So far I’m really digging it. Way more tracks and cars than five plus water and night. Unfortunately not all tracks have night or rain but the water actually makes sebring interesting for once so there’s that. When I’m driving a car from five on a track from five it actually doesn’t seem very different but I think there is enough new stuff to make it worth while for sure.

Thank GOD for that barrier at Road Atlanta.
They’ve become more lenient with how far you can go off a corner (as well as elimination grass that slows you down in an instant) but they’ve done a great job at finding out where people usually “cheat” with the barriers.

I haven’t messed around enough to find out but you definitely lose traction like crazy in some of the grass. Haven’t found the automagic stop grass yet but I’m sure it’s there. waiting...

I really hope they got rid of it, and just made the grass realistic.

Sounds like I’ll stick with my combination of IRacing and FH2 then. haha

Yeah that has always been something that annoys me. Corners have been way too easy to cut so people just take that route and spear you while you’re trying to take the corner like it was designed.

Yeah with that combo you very much have the sim racing and “fun” racing covered.

I haven’t done much online racing yet, just been doing time attack in rivals, but I’m thinking we will see much less douchebaggery corner cutting.

Yeah the rain is awesome, it’s too bad it’s not every track.

I hope so, the community on forza is usually pretty awful and no one races legitimately.

Agreed. That said I’m not a fan of the night racing. It didn’t occur to me they would take into account the quality of the headlights which was a pain online as all my online cars were all older vehicles which meant I was effectively driving blind.

But iirc the old games gave you a time penalty or nullified your lap time for cutting corners

Do they have it where if you break your headlights you’re driving blind? Or is it like horizon where lights will always work no matter what your front end looks like

I don’t know. I have seen rear lights go out but not front yet. If I had to guess I reckon they might make the front lights indestructible as you are literally driving in pitch black otherwise.

I'm hoping soon we will have a good community of oppo players. Having a group of guys you're always online racing with is such a positive.

What is Forza 5 at for car count now? I'd imagine that it's close to 400 cars. How do the number of tracks compare? Forza 5 did eventually get the ring and another one or two tracks as dlc.

You’re gonna want to try the leagues. The racing there is very serious. I’ll be blunt you’re probably not do well but it will be clean for the most part and you will quickly learn the leaderboard cars for example the Willis Jeep is the best D class car.

Forza 5 has 320 cars with all DLC. Forza 6 has 470 cars with all DLC.
5 has 17 tracks, 6 has 24.

They did add quite a bit of tracks to Forza 6 on top of what was in 5. I'm not for sure on car count comparison.

I will definitely have to do that. If it’s clean racing I don’t even care if I’m losing
