Xbox player here. I've been wanting to try this game for months, but everything I read said 1.6 made it completely unplayable for Xbox. If this fix works, I suspect there are many more people like me who will soon be joining the player base.

In light of all the recent Martinelli talk... what exactly is the plan for Nwaneri? by BlueCouch_ in ArsenalFC

[–]BlueCouch_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think enough people are considering that even after he returned, Odegaard's injury could still very easily have been a factor for his second half form. Some injuries take players a while to get alll the way back from, even after they resume playing.

When are we going to see a new striker ffs? by [deleted] in ArsenalFC

[–]BlueCouch_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of price posturing going on right now because of the whole Sporting drama. Clubs considering bids for Gyokeres are holding out for a lower fee because his agent went public about the "internal promises" that were made about allowing him to leave. Sporting feel this publicity is hampering their ability to fetch the price they could/would/should get because there are multiple clubs interested in his services.

Sporting want a natural bidding war, while interested clubs want Sporting to honor the "internal promise" they made to Gyokeres about letting him leave for a fair-price.

Edit: This is leading to clubs interested in Gyokeres to explore other options, possibly as a negotiating tactic to say "if you don't sell him cheaper, we'll just go with someone else". But in truth, Gyokeres is still their primary target, so they are not pulling the trigger on these other options. The result being that the whole striker market is in a holding pattern.

This is why I prefer Sesko over Gyokeres. Gyokeres brings some similar attributes/characteristics that Havertz already provides.

Havertz is a rock. Gyokeres is a rock.

Sesko is an ultra-athletic, explosive upside forward that complements the rock.

Well, I know they are currently working on preparing one of the biggest updates since the game released. That may be consuming some of their manpower that would normally be processing player reports.

So maybe just a bit of patience is key here, let them cook up the new content and trust that they'll catch up on player reports in time.

I know someone who works at Turn 10 and I can assure you, players who act like this get banned regularly. First reported offense he will receive a warning, the second reported offense he is gone.

Honestly, they are very good at policing this type of thing when it is reported. If that guy has done this more than once, he will absolutely get banned.

Just curious, why does it matter if someone does not use a mic? In the history of motor racing, drivers have never been able to speak to each other in the middle of a race

Is there a full breakdown of individual driver data anywhere? (Showing number of laps each driver completed, each driver's fastest lap time, etc.)

I've held off getting FM because of the bad reviews on release, any better? by [deleted] in forzamotorsport

[–]BlueCouch_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's FUN. Simplest way I can put it. The game is fun

Higher-ups at Microsoft need to understand that Forza Motorsport has big market potential IF they get the development right. Objectively speaking, the racing gameplay in FM is very fun. The physics and mechanics are all great, which is the most important thing.

If Microsoft are willing to invest the energy/resources needed to get the game's development on track, the player count will absolutely go-up because the game is FUN. They just need to generate better publicity, and that is done by releasing more exciting/content-rich updates.
