Forza Motorsport Players Experience a Myriad of Issues Following Game's Recent Update

Developer Turn 10 Studios just launched a massive update for Forza Motorsport, which includes the new Yas Marina track, as well as various new events for players to enjoy. However, despite so many new additions to the game, it seems that players are not having a good time.

Forza Motorsport's Update 2.0 was released earlier today for all supported platforms. It was supposed to make players happy. But, the patch is not being well-received, mainly due to the myriad of issues that have cropped up since its release.

Buggy Mess

Players went to Twitter to voice out their frustrations about the game's recent patch. User @Julian Schmitt highlighted several issues, including in-game progress not being saved at times, too few tracks, not a lot of modern racing cars, and the game's Career Mode being "brutally boring."

Another user added that Update 2.0 has only worsened some of the game's already existing bugs, such as frequent crashes on the loading screen, cars going invisible in private multiplayer matches, and replays not being saved as they should.

The company may have also screwed up the game's AI, with one user stating that they have been playing Forza Motorsport fully assisted since the update went live.

With players encountering so many issues, Turn 10 Studios might address these in a hotfix. Hopefully, that will come sooner rather than later.
