Also new to multiplayer is the concept of clubs, where friends and others can join together to share cars through the club garage as well as compare lap times and compete with other clubs for collective props. Unfortunately these don’t seem to be as popular as the main modes so they were hard to test. Besides racing however there are also other options like car soccer and tag modes. If you just want to get the green light right away you can hit up the Quick Match lobby, or you can go searching for partners based on class, circuit, etc.
#FORZA MOTORSPORT 4 XBOX 360 DRIVERS#
Not much has changed in the multiplayer lobbies for Forza 4, except that user hosted public lobbies are thankfully back, and the game itself now supports 16 drivers per race. Multiplayer will give you the same XP and credit rewards so Forza no longer has to be a chore. But what if you get bored of going solo? No problem. Opponent AI is more intelligent and actually adjusts to your ability to create a fair challenge without rubberbanding and still being beatable with good driving. Upgrades are mostly the same as before and you can take a car from class E to A or S without much issue. The season typically ends with a two heat championship event. On top of that there are new events for variety like bowling (knock over the pins as you make your way through the Top Gear track) and autocross (navigating gates through the course to beat a time limit). Three new real world tracks are now available: Hockenheimring, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and Infineon Raceway, as well as a fantasy track referred to as Bernese Alps. Available events will change to fit what you decide to drive so again there are no impediments to your enjoyment of the game. Levels and credits are earned more rapidly as you’re whisked around through the World Tour, and each time you level up you’re rewarded with a new car for free, so your garage will fill up in no time. However, even if you’re new to things, Turn 10 realizes you don’t want to suffer with low tier cars for long. If you’re a veteran to the series, Forza 4 will detect your save from the previous game and throw you a whole set of rides to get you started. Right off the bat you are served notice by Top Gear’s Jeremy Clarkson that this game is an unapologetic love letter to cars and actually having fun with them, rather than slowly collecting them like museum pieces and worrying over the environmental consequences of turning the key. The fact that they improved the graphics and the physics even further is just icing on the cake. What they added was some fun touches from a collaboration with Top Gear, a couple hit or miss Kinect features, some minor tweaks to career mode, and a bevy of multiplayer modes that encourage both greater community participation and competition. Fortunately however, Turn 10 Studios didn’t fret much over it and stuck to what they do best, making Forza gorgeous, cutting edge, and accessible to all comers. What makes things different this time around is Polyphony Digital finally, though extremely belatedly, played its hand with Gran Turismo 5. Another two year cycle, another Forza Motorsport.
