Unfortunately, the Forza series since Forza 4 lost much of its luster - even if it wants to talk kind of nice - after you have spent one or two hours by numerous game and also had fun.
To Forza 5:
+ Positive to mention would be the graphics. That looks really good.
BUT: Expected to something not even of a new console? In my opinion, a next-gen game MUST look better than on the Xbox 360. The Forza managed. If a bit was also cheating on the one or other point, if you look closely. The great sun rays effects have been somewhat used arg exaggerated - YES, console it and it also looks good - but acts MMN exaggerated. And it's not consistently of the same quality. The cars and tracks look from very good to average.
+ The controller and the pulses triggers are also to mention great, but not really the merit of Forza ... but ok. They are supported and used by the game. A positive point.
+ New paint colors such as carbon, gold, chrome, etc. that looks really good
And now we come already to lament ... unfortunately ... it was simply left out very much and sometimes - sorry that I express the so - fudged. It's perhaps the time pressure due to the game having to publish it as a launch title, who knows.
Overall, the game is not as much fun as Forza 4 ...
- Expensive cars, little career credits and a beautiful Micro-Transactions payment system ala Need for Speed. The best way is to buy the same of the 100 EUR expensive booster pack to in order to get benefit from the Lotus to drive E21.
- There is no longer any serial car be driven - only a small selection - and with this one deserves neither credit nor experience. Beautifully.
- One can not test drive the car before you buy them in the career. Not even in multiplayer or free ride. Class.
- Limited damage no longer goes. Beautifully.
- Only 13 Plug - and all routes that were important to me were now omitted. No more Nürburgring, no Hockenheimring, no Suzuka, no Fujimi Kajido, no Tsukuba, no ... I listen to now.
- The surface is sometimes a bit confusing and contradictory. Menus are unnecessarily complicated nested or hidden. Buttons are described incorrectly (it is on the screen press R ... but accurate is L). Certain functions can be found after a long search (eg pattern Groups).
- Different things are sold as new, even though they only got a new name. So now earned the Drivertar allegedly Credits when driving race - in Forza 4 was called the still daily Community credit reward.
There are many other points that are disturbing, but I have to say:
If you've never played before Forza, and do not know how the other parts were probably will be delighted.
Who has previously played Forza on the Xbox 360 is designed to inform first exactly prefer.
I was certainly disappointed.
The Forza franchise has the golden age behind and is - should it go on like this - have the same descent as the need for speed in front of him.
