The good, the bad and the whaa?

The good:

Career mode is fun again after Forza 5’s treadmill.

The showcases are a fantastic addition to the game.

By far and away the best UI in the series.

Oh boy does it run smooth. They say 60fps and dammit it runs at 60fps.

No bugs (really disappointing that this is a plus but racing games have been really buggy as of late).

The bad:

The engines are too damn quiet. All you can hear is intake noise.

The Drivatars are no longer arseholes but are now cowards. STOP BRAKING ON HIGH SPEED TURNS!

Man alive their tidbits of Car Culture are preachy.

The Whaa:

Wow, the trees look really bad.

Conclusion:

Ooh wee, this game is awesome.

I would've gone for a Borg reference, but that's just me.

Based on my experience playing TIE Fighter, that's all I'll need.

Freaking broke down, after convincing myself I would be PS4 exclusive for this console generation (because I don’t want to pay for two subscriptions) I bought the Halo Master Chief Collection edition console bundle yesterday. I’ll be crawling into gamestop next week with a bunch of trade in’s for Forza 6.

Another pro: NO STICKYGRASS!!

Did they also get rid of those annoying breadsticks on Le Mans?

Kinda. They're still there but less of a bother.

Oh pooh. :/ Well, as long as they don’t jettison my car spiraling through the air if I so much as nudge them...

The Drivatars are no longer arseholes but are now cowards. STOP BRAKING ON HIGH SPEED TURNS!

Also, the AI has done this in Forza for as long as I can remember. It’s...pretty dumb, but easy to take advantage of in singleplayer races.

Do they still also go full-retard mode immediately after a rewind (something I noticed a lot in Fourza)?

It’s much worse here.

Can’t say as I don’t use rewind due to a mod I have.

Fortunately there are only a few tracks this occurs. Spa and ovals for obvious reasons.
