My first impressions
- Despite getting a classic supercar to start off with, credits are definitely more hard to come by.
- Driving the F40 right now. Sounds definitely more pronounced.
- The new hood cam option is fantastic.
- Adjustable race length is great, though there isn't any option to choose a specific amount of laps. Kinda disappointing.
- The night time transitions are gorgeous.
- Free-Play options are so good. As a fan of creating my own events, I can see myself spending a lot of time in FP.
- Being able to change options/upgrade your car/change mods while loading is a god send
- No more class based hoppers/rivals at the moment, all done by Homologated Divisions. (tho T10 said if feedback is that people want these back, they'll add them back). Hard to tell if every division will be balanced perfectly (and it won't be since there's over 60 divisions, too many variables to account for) but it'll be 1000 times more balanced than FM6
- You can forzavista trackside and forzavista whilst looking at cars in the rent car screen.
- Some of the new wheels are sick. BBS Turbofans??? Hell ye
- Car Collecting is definitely going to be really addicting in this game (you'd hope so with 700 cars)
- Different times of day breathe a sense of life to every track which is great, though it doesn't seem like we have any control over these even in free-play (which is odd since we have complete control of weather)
- Lack of new to forza cars and tracks is still definitely disappointing considering how much new stuff we got in FM6.
- Specialty dealer seems cool, reminds me of the ol used car dealer in GT5
- The new body kit options are nuts, and there is a safety car light bar option for the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant!
- Did I mention it looks amazing, sounds amazing and feels great with a controller? Sounds are much better than FM6, so are visuals
