@SavageEvil: it's a Horizon game most likely. While I would say Forza 5 felt incomplete, rushed... and a bit of a microtransaction nightmare, Forza 6 is great. In terms of weather and time of day changes.... races generally last less then 20 minutes. Variation on weather is good but only if it effects physics. With the puddles in Forza6 you definitely feel that.
Asseto Corsa is a solid PC racer but it's not perfect either. Project Cars was fun but again not perfect. What we need is GT to come back in a meaningful way to give every other racer something to think about. Rally tracks anyone? Variation and scope are key. Gimmicky weather and rapid time changes can take a back seat.
What we are getting is a new Forza game every 2 years... which to me is acceptable as long as there are meaningful updates.
As far as Forza Horizon - that game is a blast and I'm definitely looking forward to the next instalment.
Your frustrations with Forza online are literally the same with every racing game. There are aholes in every online game. Search forums for serious drivers and friend up. That's what I did and it's so much better.
Definitely excited for this. A little bit cautiously optimistic. Seems like the franchise peaked at 2 and then has gotten worse. They need to make it feel fresh.
@wtf_666: Who gives a f? I'm commenting on an article that is talking about sales numbers on two different platforms. I'm giving reasons as to why this may be the case. I clicked on an article that has a comment section and left a comment, that to me, is a fair one. I'm just sharing an opinion as to why I think the numbers may be the way they are.
@Saidrex: That's not a legitimate reason? Obviously ONE doesn't have the user base that PC and PS4 does... but my point stands. It wasn't an attack on your beloved console of choice... or the one that for some reason you hate.
How many AAA games were released along side TR for PC? That's right - none. The console version was going up against the holiday games window. MS wanted this to boost it's game line up going into Christmas and in that regard it definitely worked. It's a great game and if you get a chance to play it, do so.
Gotta say. This game look like it hasn't evolved at all. Very disappointed with what I'm seeing and hearing so far. Hopefully there are some meaningful updates.
