Forza Motorsport 6: Brabham BT24 at Brands Hatch gameplay

TeamVVV writes: "Since we are driving a classic British car, what better place that Brands Hatch to showcase it we thought. The video has five separate viewpoints of the action in all including one of Alan. Alan comments on some of the handling characteristics of some of the cars found in Forza Motorsport 6 which he feels lack that tactile feedback, not to mention weight and grip."

With regards to progressiveness...it feels fine on a controller. I have good control of my revs going into, mid and exiting corners. It could be something relating to the thrustmaster, but I have heard a few sttories about forza with CERTAIN wheels. This is why we need a wheel shoot out now. thrust master VS fanatec VS logitec.

@3:22 Im sorry to say but that was YOUR doing, Patreon. the way the track banks and dips and your outer left started to spin up suggest, you simply needed to lift of genty. YOu had reached the cars maximimum grip level at that speed and your car gave way. Suspension tweeks to that car would hold it better. Like me you drive without asists so you need to work a little more mechanical grip out of the chassis.

Whats interesting is I would blitz brands in this car, with my assists fully off. Maybe the car is just too snappy for ya! ;)

Bathyj3135d ago

Is there a wheel that works on Xbone and PS4? After the Logitec debacle with G25/G27 I'm loath to buy another wheel unless I think I'll get quite a bit of use out of it and I would want it to work on both platforms.

Sorry, I know I could just google it myself, but this is a forum where gamers can talk about games afterall. So opinions anyone? Is there anything good for both?

Bigpappy3135d ago

Actually a great question. Sorry I don't have an answer though.

FlexLuger3135d ago

"Is there a wheel that works on Xbone and PS4?"

Man I wish!Some of these wheels cost more than these consoles at this point. I surprised nobody has made a universal solution. Cant be that hard!

"After the Logitec debacle with G25/G27 I'm loath to buy another wheel unless I think I'll get quite a bit of use out of it and I would want it to work on both platforms."

I didnt even know about this. I took an interest in the logitech xbox wheel because I know, the brand has been popular with GT players for years. Thats as good an endorsmenet as any. I take the opinions of GT, Pcars, and pretty much any sim players points on these wheels into consideration.

I thought logictech were like the audi of steering wheels. Reliable and high in quality. I think Im gonna wait it out a while on the wheel. See what issues turn up and how quickly they get fixed.

"Sorry, I know I could just google it myself, but this is a forum where gamers can talk about games afterall."

Your always cool in my books. One of the most level headed PS gamers on here ;)

WhiteHawk3133d ago (Edited 3133d ago )

There already is an option that works on Xbox One, PS4, PS3 and PC, it's Fanatecs Universal XBOX One Hub, get they're Clubsport Wheel and pedals and the Universal Hub with a rim and your good to go, I'm playing Forza 6 with mine now. You will have to spend a bit more however, but it's better than the Logitech option and miles better than that crappy TX wheel, I know I had one and got a refund on it.

urwifeminder3135d ago

RIP Sir Jack only guy to build his own car and win the F1 title great Australian racing icon .

FlexLuger3135d ago (Edited 3135d ago )

Top 10 Rarest Cars in Forza History

KeenGamer: "See the top 10 rarest cars to ever appear in Forza history! Thousands of cars have been featured in Forza since launch and only a handful of them have been really difficult to obtain or, in current state, impossible to drive around with. Although they were once obtainable, it's only for a limited time and, most times, for a certain price."

I thought this was going to be about the rarest and most valuable cars in the game, based on real life manufacture numbers and value.

What's the benefit of delisting games? Curious.

Italiano12345671707d ago

Theres no benefit. They just dont renew the licenses for the songs and cars so after the 15th u cant buy it

mandingo1707d ago (Edited 1707d ago )

Oh licenses. That makes sense. So if you have it digitally already you can still play it you just cant buy it?

Cobra9511707d ago (Edited 1707d ago )

Yeah, the expiring-licenses thing is a blight on the scene. There literally ought to be a law. Once something is licensed for a product, it should never become an impediment later on. Simple consumer protection. In racing games, both the cars and the music would be locked in place. The developer can't add newer car models, or different songs. I don't see why that would hurt the profits of car companies or artists. Newer games would have to license the newer cars and songs, or even the same ones.

Edit: mandingo, that's right.

rainslacker1707d ago (Edited 1707d ago )

Saving on licensing costs.

@cobra

They could pay more for perpetual licenses, but after 4 years, chances are they arent going to be making much of a return on the game anymore.

lodossrage1707d ago

again, a music license issue. This is the same reason Driveclub is getting delisted next year.

I'm sorry, but if music rights can be the cause of a product being delisted, they need to either have unlicensed music because this is ridiculous. This is actually another reason to be concerned about an all-digital future.

bolimekurac1707d ago

or hopefully when ugly things stick their head out like this music license issue, that the companies do the right thing and find a solution so this doesnt happen, then we can complain if they dont. Digital games is fairly new so why dont we first see if the companies fix these issues that pop up. not that we shouldnt be heard and to let them know about these issues but at least lets not attack them for no reason

lodossrage1707d ago

@bolimekurac,

They've already had years to deal with this. This isn't the first instance of license music altering a game in some form. Crazy Taxi wasn't even allowed to be released with the original soundtrack and many of the real world stores in the game were cut for licenses.

I know it's not exactly' the same, but the issues is close enough that the industry as a whole should have realized this would be a problem even back in the ps3/ 360 era win crazy taxi was re-released for modern day.

traumadisaster1707d ago (Edited 1707d ago )

Oh crap idk about drive club, I’m so glad you mentioned it, and I just happen to be in this article. I’ve been wanting that game but was waiting until ps5 to get it. Now i need to check into this cause hell I’ll buy it now if I need to.

It looks like there is a hard copy version, so I can pick that up cheap, the online stuff which I don’t usually do is what goes away in 2020, and it can’t be bought on psn

KickSpinFilter1707d ago

Oh you should def get Driveclub such a great game now after server/updates. One of my all time fav racers. Nice mix of Arcade/Sim. Not Sim, Arcade or Sim/Arcade.

rainslacker1707d ago

I'd highly recommend bikes if you get driveclub. Lots of fun. The vr version is also good if you have psvr.

About the only thing you're going to lose with the delisting is the online functions as well. Driveclub is playable in SP with lots of content though. It's just being part of a club and user challenges or throw downs won't be available after they shut down the servers.

DaDrunkenJester1707d ago

Or it's not that big of a deal since it's a long running franchise and there is already the newer versions you can still buy. If you already own FM6 you can still play it.

spicelicka1707d ago

This is a definitely a huge concern for an all-digital future. Along the fact that they can control whatever price they want you to pay even 5 years later, like Destiny and Call of Duty. You can't even buy the original games anymore, they just re-bundle them and force you to pay full price again.

WiiU-Dude1707d ago

It happens in other entertainment too. I have seen DVD series held up for years because of music licensing issues. It is annoying. I agree with the person that it should be a one time deal. With the creation of a product, things like music licensing should be done with that product going forward. Such a headache apparently.

Good thing physical copies will always exist for purchase in a thriving used game market.

There’s at least 3 people who like games being delisted; never to be played again.

Software_Lover1706d ago

But you still have to download the data unfortunately...…..

traumadisaster1707d ago

I just bought this a few months ago on a very cheap sale, then I think recently it was added to game pass.
