“Forza Motorsport 6 has beautiful visuals, a lot of gameplay options, and real-world weather and night effects.”
“Some of the off-track functionality in Forza Motorsport 6 is sometimes surprisingly lazily implemented but you'll tend to forget that when you're in a battle with the elements, trying to shave a tenth of a second off your laptime in your newly-tuned favorite racer, or simply gawking at the outstanding visuals.”

The story in the game is considered a typical "become the best" narrative, which some players find acceptable for a racing game, while others suggest that those seeking a more engaging storyline should opt for titles like Forza Horizon instead. Overall, the narrative is seen as standard and not particularly innovative.
“Here, if you can even call it a 'story', they have opted for the former approach, and I think that's a good thing.”
“If you place more value on story, you should choose Forza Horizon.”
“The story/campaign is questionable; racing games and a narrative?”
“If you can even call it a 'story', they have chosen to focus on racing, which I think is a good decision.”
“However, if you place more value on the story, you should choose Forza Horizon.”

Die Optimierung des neuesten Teils der Reihe wird als unzureichend beschrieben, insbesondere auf der Xbox One, wo es zu Rucklern, Tearing und starken Bildrateneinbrüchen kommt. Im Vergleich dazu wird Forza für seine durchweg bessere Performance gelobt, was die Darstellungsqualität betrifft.
“If Forza does anything right, it's the performance.”
“Unfortunately, Project Cars struggles with stuttering, tearing, and significant frame rate drops on the Xbox One - in my opinion, there's nothing worse than stuttering and tearing in corners - so Forza clearly leads in terms of graphical performance.”
“Since the predecessor shone more through performance than variety, I thought the latest installment in the series would at least come close to parts 2-4.”
“Unfortunately, Project Cars struggles with stuttering, tearing, and significant frame rate drops on the Xbox One - in my opinion, there is nothing worse than stuttering and tearing in corners - so in terms of graphical performance, Forza clearly comes out on top.”

This is a true showcase for Xbox One in every area except the racing. Inconsistent difficulty, random payouts and way too many dull events seriously spoil the party.

Forza 6 comes close to the finish line, but long load times, sluggish racing, and frustrating design decisions betray its gorgeous 1080p/60fps visuals.
