No one plays? I still play racing games

A few things that FH5 has that Motorfest lacks is conventional everyday cars, FH5 gets cars like the VW Santana/Passat and Nissan Tsuru wheras Motorfest adds supercars. FH5 also gives the players cars that they want every now and then. I like Motorfest and its fun but i prefer FH5 because i can experiment with different cars and make different builds.

I hope Game Developers come up with new ideas.

TBH There are certain parts of this game that I love like: The varied playlists like you mentioned that have a lot of different themes and modes to fool around with. The vintage playlist is definitely one of the standouts along with Gymkana, The newer Hollywood Playlist, The Electric car playlist, the motorcycle playlist and the Concept car events, etc The superior 1st person view + hand over hand animations being varied and turning more than 900 degrees lolz. The fact that your avatar can roll down the window and have their arm out while cruising is pretty fuckin cool IMO -The variety in vehicles including monster trucks, planes, motorcycles and motocross bikes, boats, etc. This definitely makes the game stand out from FH and allowing the game to shine in that regard. The grand races are fun once you up your skills and know how to properly navigate them and despite the rammers and what not, its still fun to battle with other races until the very end. The summit races & events are fun competition. The different races plus various modifiers that they used to keep the variety up is a very good thing. Unlimited nitrous on a high speed course or a slightly technical one is fucking fun AF(It does have flaws tho & they'll be mentioned below) The World really does feel more alive and lived in & a lot of the roads are fun to drive on! and there are things that I do not like/find very annoying Like: The handling/physics in this game are NOT Better Than FH5. It is a major step up from TC2 but besides tha, The physics and handling are designed with understeer in mind during faster corners and oversteer is an issue in slower corners on many cars thanks to throttle feedback that isn't as good as it should be. The understeer and the fact that the cars being heavy/floaty is a major issue. So much so that the sweaty players decided to download a 3rd party exploit that allowed you to use wheel mode on their controllers giving them a noticeable advantage(Not an insane one mind you since you still need to have good driving skills to win but still). The built in slight delay on consoles(I Don't know if PC version has it or nah) The devs had to give the direct mode to everybody as a result and it was a step on the right direction i'll admit despite being hella twitchy. Also, the majority of popular TCM youtubers will submit pro setting tunes to most cars that mainly mitigate the understeer that they have and make them more responsive. The cars also do not feel the same in FH5 that's Cap IMO. A rally car did not feel the same as an exotic and an exotic did not feel the same as a more nimble sedan lol. Turn the assists off and you'll see for yourself Lol. The grind to get certain vehicles is too much and many races need to have their rewards upped a bit. Not an insanely high amount mind you but just enough to where the grind isnt too bad. For example, 15 to 18k races need to be upped to like 30-38k, 75k races upped to 80k and 30k races upped to like 40 to 42k respectively. Keep car prices the same and you'll have a somewhat better balance and player would be more likely to come back to these playlists instead of playing them once and then forgetting about most of them. The microtransactions also fucking suck in this game and I'm glad that FH5 doesn't have them. The updates for TCM so far are also not as good as FH5 because FH5 made some major changes and had more consistent updates/free features over the 8 month course of the games life(not all of the updates are perfect mind you but still). The lack of new content(Both PvP and Singleplayer content) for TCM so far has been somewhat lacking IMO. We only have like 3 modes for PvP and the playlists are good but get repetitive after a while. FH 5 also had 2 whole expansions that were a breath of fresh air IMO. TCM need a race creator and more PvP modes. They also need more singleplayer expansions for a decent price. Now about the summit's flaws, the fact that resets are a legit game tactic gets annoying after a while and should be nerfed by having the car starting from a dead start or prevent it from being used completely to make it a little more fair. They also need to ban exploiters and cheaters in the summit mode. They also need to remove co-op from it because solo ppl who don't have friends or partners would be put at a major disadvantage. The Traffic during certain feats like escape and slalom is wayy too high and needs to be reduced. The rubberband AI can be too much sometimes. They will pass you sometimes as if you're standing still and it gets infuriating when they do it last minute. All in All: this game is a lot of fun and it can compliment FH 5 nicely but tbh some if its flaws are very noticeable and need to be addressed ASAP! Also buy TCM when its on sale and not at full price!

You completely lost me when you said all cars in Horizon handle the same, that's objectively false, this video comes off as you seeing things as being better in motorfest when they aren't because it feels somewhat new and different and you've gotten a bit jaded with Horizon after five games. The car list in motorfest is bloated with made up "special edition" versions of cars to pad out the roster, it's grindy as hell and the physics model while good and an improvement over the crew 2 still isn't as good as Horizon with cars still feeling like they're made out of lead especially when jumping them. The map in motorfest is good but the idea the roads are better for racing than Horizon is laughable, the highways are terrible for trying to max out the faster cars as tight turns and traffic will ensure you crash before you've hit your nice new Chiron SS's top speed. Horizon has a lot more to do in terms of different modes both online and offline, you could spend hundreds of hours in event lab alone, motorfest has only two online game modes, the playlists are quite good though. It's a good game, I've enjoyed playing it but Horizon is still top dog.

Bro the trees are cloned from "Just Cause 3" graphics in majority of motorfest map😆

I will tell you the truth of this game. It's BORING after you complete all. 17 Playlist is not enough, the map doesn't have enough rhings to do to be an open world, not all the cars have good customization, those 600+ cars are recycled model cars in it's mayority, the playlist look good but become generic when replay with another car, the pvp it's as good as bad because you only have 2 modes and the summits that are also boring replays of the playlist with a generic ambientation. This was also a DLC for The Crew 2, the handling it's good but it's to hard for an arcade game. The game it's full of Bugs and it's also online only. All of this for 70 dollars.

Very interesting and important points covered throughout the video , well explained ! 👏❤. Motorfest is definitely not boring at all , really cool graphics and car models that grab my attention.

It totally is a FH5 clone. Not only that but you lose your fame level every month.

The fact that you can't play it if your internet provider is down or doing maintenance, is super frustrating

Great video! Keep going bro!

Doesn't matter, Ubisoft will delete this game from your library ten years later. And this time you should have known better.

Found your channel from reddit, good video

I can guarantee you, there are those of us who really care about all those little details like handling models, weight transfer, tire degradation, temperatures, and realistic weather simulations. It's not as accessible as an arcade racer. But there are differences that matter for fans between the big games like Forza and GT, and they have dedicated fanbases. Then you have games like Assetto Corsa and iRacing on PC, which are totally different beasts than the console games. Sure, there aren't as many mass market appealing arcade racers anymore, but to say nobody plays racing games is a bit of an overstatement.

Sim racers unite

Yo great video man! Keep it up! Just curious, have you checked back on NFS Unbound yet? It just got an update based on NFS Underground. Including drag races, a new drift handling model, new cars, a lot of bug fixes and quality of life changes. At the moment it's been given a lot of praise. Maybe you can check it out? Because I'm loving it so much right now! P.S. Keep up the great content! ❤

Great video man! I legit thought I was watching a youtuber with 250k-500k subs until I went to comments. Amazing quality, keep it up! I also like the thing when you show a progress bar when there's a pause or a clip. Creative.

Hey everyone, happy International Dr. Powerslide upload day! It's totally a real holiday, just don't look it up. I just wanted to add a few comments in addition to what I said here, as I know some people might consider "buying" the game as a result of my video. I'm a bit split on recommending Motorfest to every other Horizon fan, as it's a Ubisoft game, which is probably one of, if not the worst company in the gaming industry as a whole. But, if the online-only and microtransactions don't throw you off, just keep in mind that the core moment-to-moment gameplay is still inferior to any Forza game. Cars feel way too back heavy, and as a result, oversteering one too many times usually results in you spinning way out of control. It's not horrible, but the handling model still has a lot of room for improvement. The Grand Race is also exactly how I mentioned it in the video lol. It's very chaotic (especially during the beginning parts), so if you only like serious racing, it's probably not for you. The bottom line is that Horizon 5 is a sandbox, while Motorfest is a blend between a racer and a sandbox. If you don't like being forced to drive slow(ish) cars for a while before owning supercars, I can't recommend this game to you. I'd also be remiss if I mentioned The Crew and didn't bring up #STOPKILLINGGAMES. I like Motorfest, but I don't like Ubisoft's treatment of their customers. Also, keep in mind that the game has a 60FPS cap. My PC Gamer brain was not happy. Anyways, editing this video was a lot of work. I'm going to go play a video game or something. I'll be back with the next video by the 7th! (for real this time)

the burnout series has left the chat 💀💀

I am ur 1000th subscriber !

Interesting when the most played racing game ever is FH5. Not sure your take is correct. But yes 360 era was the best for racing games but people are playing for sure.

Cause devs aren't racers and car dudes

Huh. I guess I no longer have an interest in car racing games, and just play kart-racing games instead.

0:23 that meme hit it right on the head. nothing more to say.

I'm confused actually. This was a well edited video and yet not enough people subbed or liked.

Forza Horizon 5 is worst Forza Motorsport 2023 and The Crew Motorfest and gta online rockstar remove cars from websites 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡💢💢💢💢😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

More racing games need to follow the career setup like the F1 games where you follow a season with practice qualifying THEN race day. Bonus points if they could incorporate a super points system (since most games follow Motorsports managed by the FIA) in order for you to be able to compete in better and faster racing divisions

you should definitely check out game called distance

Gaming laptops ARE still garbage bro XD

If you want something unique from the monotony of the current racing game sphere, you're going to have to dig. I recently found Night Runners on steam, a 90s to mid 2000s street racing game set in japan. it's aesthetic is supreme, and I can't stop playing. It's currently still being produced, but the prologue is out, and I encourage everyone feeling the same as you described in the video to check it out.

As someone who loved Underground 1 & 2, liked Carbon, and enjoyed pro street a lot, I just find gameplay boring as hell in the latest need for speed games and not only in this franchise. 1- The circuits / roads are uninteresting. 2- The driving models, are either too realistic or too arcadey. 3- I'm not joking but I have on my phone a few cheap racing games with many times more entertaining driving mechanics. 4- We either seem to get a game with good/fun driving physics and no customization or the opposite. It seems impossible to find both in one place. It feels to me that racing games are never made to feel complete, but they are created lacking in many ways, as if to purposefully be forgotten so that you can buy the next installment.

Racing games lack the most important thing in a game,,,, the soul and the passion, without it, it be just another racing game that feels similar that you played before and gets boring real fast and lack of variety doesn't help either,,, thats the problem with racing games

Split second anyone?

Game is slow and sluggish campaign is boring Af online only saves

Bc you can already drive in open world games with modern/futuristic urban maps like gta5 & cyberpunk

Because they simply suck... Id love to play some good racing game. But after seeing whats available i end up launching stuff like NFS U2, MW, ProStreet, some old GRID games or Flatout UC...

I disagre with that,project cars 2 and F1 2019 is great,good simulation....

Yes I'm still playing racing games almost every day, but on Android, and seeing and testing which played better, My old time favorites like Ridge Racer, Gran Turismo, Burnout, Need for Speed, Midnight Club, Test Drive and some are still the greatest of all time, I'm on Android playing Racing Legends, Rebel Racing, Gear Club, Racing Max pro, and others, but some that people are hyping up aren't as great as they say, they look great in graphics and have lots of features, but when it come to controlling and steering the cars for yourself is pure nonsense, Asphalt 9 legends is one of them, in this game you race cars, but you have to make choices, and the damn cars keep crashing often, especially in multiplayer mode which shouldn't be, if you make a choice too early or too late your car runs into wall and crash most of the time, sometimes you nitro just as the fly off a ramp it hit up or fly off the road go below or into waters, which is nonsense, this game have a lot of hypes but it's not as good as many say it is, too many unnecessary crashes, the choice decision mechanism makes steering the cars worse, so I'm hoping if Gameloft to ever make ten, they do it like the kings of Racing Games, and let people steer the cars themselves, in automatic mode like Racing Legends, Burnout, Midnight Club, Need for Speed and Ridge Racer just to mention a few of the kings of Racing Games. People want to see those games ported to Android as well, Need for Speed is doing it, so what are the other companies waiting for? To bring over the greatest names and racers of all time? We want them for Android, there they will have a greater and wider audience and fan base, because almost everyone has a smartphone, they might even bring back some old players when they get to know that they can now play their classic favorites on their phones, so RR, Namco, and the others we want our Racing Favorites in our hands as well as on console, because mobile gaming is getting bigger and better because of the variety of smartphones in people hands, not everyone own playstation, Xbox, or Nintendo today, because time change, but almost everyone has a smartphone, they always do, and have it mostly anywhere they go.

the problem i find is that the racing itself in these open world games aren't fun and close, most of the time you drive against people in cars that are going so fast that you can't even race with them most of the time, track racers like grid have much closer and better racing. people have become obsessed with the open worlds and forgotten how fun a track racer actually can be. reason i still love rivals is because the open world doesn't have hundreds of unnecessary roads, in the new nfs games and forza i just skip the roads and drive off road most of the time.

I am still playing Test Drive Unlimited platinum edition

You also have to realize that the first few Fast and Furious and tuning became a real social phenomenon back then, and boosted the sales of racing games for the next 5 to 10 years.

i still play them

Well yes like that guy said failing an exam doesn't mean you shouldn't have a good career so u get my sub

just because you dont like to play racing games anymore doesnt mean the genre is dead.

I just want a Blur remake.. or something like a spiritual successor to it 😢

One thing u didnt add is the actual player base mentality. I have a friend who LOVES cars. He loves vehicles in general, he is a mechanic even. And we grew up playing nfs. We were drumk the other day and i brought up how i miss the nfs games and he said with artitude "nfs is to arcadey". I believe he isnt ths only one who things this tho. Why so many car gamea are doing the sams realistic driving sim

I would love to play racing games if only let us have a ton more customization for the cars themselves and different variety of cars. Only Gta allows you to have a supercharger intake hood but if other games allowed you to add that, it would be great

Because racing games barely evolved. It’s pretty much just technology.

Yeah because just because the vocal minority doesn’t play racing games, nobody plays it
