Forza 6 Tests My Patience

Fuck the insipid prize spins. I never get anything good. I have tried waiting for the lower-level prizes to clear. I have tried tapping A immediately. I always get crap. This is what I won last night.

Fuck You RNGesus!!!!!!1! I thought when I stopped playing Destiny I would be done dealing with fucking bullshit like this. What was wrong with giving us a fucking choice of what we want to as our reward!? So what if everyone takes the most expensive option and sells it for credits? Maybe that is how they want to play your game. LET PEOPLE PLAY HOW THEY WANT TO ASSHOLES!

And What. The. Fuck. is wrong with the gawddamn controller!? There is zero feel for where you have the stick angled. There is not nearly enough resistance to pushing the stick around to steer the car either. What was wrong with the amount of spring-loading on the 360 controllers? You could actually tell where you had the stick pushed. I refuse, and cannot afford, to get a wheel setup. I changed the on-center dead-zone to 20 from 24, it seems to have helped a bit, but I still want more spring resistance when I push the stick around. So I guess I have to buy the damn Elite controller?

As much fun as Forza 6 is, I am starting to regret my purchase.

It tests my patience too. They need to offer it for PC.

Thanks for this honest feedback! I have 4 and a 360, have been trying to weight the decision if an XBONE and 6 are worth it. Money is tight right now so I’m thinking not.

Maybe you have bad luck? I usually get something worthwhile. And as far as the controller goes I’ve never had an issue. Maybe yours is defective

It’s actually really fun. It recaptures the magic of Forza 4. I’d recommend it.

Our XBONE came with two controllers. One was fine. The other had a nasty click in the left stick and would occasionally get stuck. Not all controllers are the same.

Not trying to brag or anything - I just got REALLY lucky the first couple spins I got..
First spin was a Million XP and the next spin was a Bugatti Veyron.. I got really lucky thus far..

It is fun, and it’s almost as good as 4. Aside from a few issues, I highly recommend it. But if money is that tight, I would hold off until you can get it and fully enjoy it; meaning you’ll miss all the DLC and feel left out.

I hope not. It’s the Forza 6 LM Xbone.

They are worth it, plus Horizon 2. The thing about the Xbox One controller is that it is the best controller, eventually. It does so many things different to past controllers that muscle memory screws with you HARD.

I got mine on launch day and debated whether to sell it immediately because the controller’s bumpers were causing me so much physical pain plus the loose sticks were causing my fingers to fall off a lot. However I kept going and the end result, all other controllers feel like absolute arse. They feel imprecise, uncomfortable and just plain big. Plus the rumble triggers take it and Forza in particular to another level when it comes to feedback.

However if money is tight, just wait. These things are only going one way price wise and that is down. Wait until there is a bundle which is built specifically for you to the point that you are losing money if you don’t take it up.

They’re called mod packs short for modifiers. You can apply them in career or free play to offer boosts or penalties. There are 3 types. Boost, Crew & Dare.

Boosts give you more money or XP and sometimes a small boost to perfromance.

Crew mods give big boosts for performance. They are essentially cheats.

Dares are dares. Essentially do this race with no assists or a shitty gearbox/more weight etc and get more money.

You buy them in card packs or get them in a wheelspin.

Do you use Normal or Simulation steering?

Does not matter when I choose to spin, I still get shafted.

I very much dislike the thumbsticks right now. The triggers are great. But I want to be able to feel how I am pushing the stick, and there is almost zero resistance there.

They are very loose but you should get used to them. Took me a while but like I said I can’t go back now to the 360 now they just feel so stiff. I’m guess from the Destiny talk, you play shooters as well and my many hours in Titanfall got me used to the new triggers very rapidly.
