For people saying this game is a forza clone: The majority of the devs for Ivory Tower actually worked on the OG Test Drive games when they were known as Eden studios, which were the very games that inspired the Forza Horizon series to be born, pretty cool fact
Unbound gave the experience its supposed to. We play NFS for fun action and power sliding around corners then blasting off with the nitrous! The type of fun no other modern “arcade” racer provides! Not every game needs simulation physics, those games are out there and boring
@@Michael.Shayne Motorfest is barely a "Simulation physics" racing game. It's still an arcade racing game at heart which was explained about by the devs. I won't say which is better but I prefer Motorfest's handling.
@@TheRealYounavers same, i prefer motorfest handling as well but like stated unbound offers a different experience. An experience i highly appreciate. No other racing games gives the satisfaction that unbound does. All the racers don’t need to be the same, it’s okay to be different and have your own flare. Unbound is in a league of its own. Motofest is trying to recreate forza and now we have to 2 more similar racers
@@Michael.Shayne Unbound truly does have it's own flare, NFS was never a Festival Racing game to begin with. But that doesn't mean Motorfest isn't unique with it's own flare as well. There is something about motorfest I really can't describe, even after playing all the Forza Horizon game's Motorfest gives me a experience akin to FH1 and FH3, both my favorite and by far the best FH games to date, but still being different in a engaging and atmospheric way. It's best to play the (full release) game instead of watching others play it, since the experience is up to you to enjoy.
The setting is just fine. I had enough of games taking place in 3rd world shitholes because of wokeness. We need more games that take place in the US, the Dakotas, Texas or the Carolinas would be awesome.
I personally believe having similar games like these is a boon for players. Forza alone can't churn out or cover the globe in my lifespan so if we have Ivory Towers and Nacon supplying us similar games then it will mean that every 2 years we can expect a new game with new some ideas. And I would not mind if we have more developers coming in. Ivory towers have proven with Crew that they do have what it takes to provide a solid game and will be loyal to it for years to come. So, it's an all win win situation.
The question is am I willing to pay $70.00 for moterfest during inflation. I love Forza but the crew Motorfest had shocked me. Especially the 5 hours of trial Japanese theme. The adaptive triggers on PS5 when breaking. Great review fantastic game
@@gabrielsobrosa It's a interesting way to put it, since they rarely make updates that really change how content is shown or made in such a big way till this update. But anyways this update is def a big W since Eventlab is something i'll try out.
I dunno if it’s just me but nitrous in the crew is one of the things that ruins it for me in terms of competing with Forza I just prefer the mechanics of car games without nitrous 🤷🏻♂️
Looks prety good especially since they said the handeling is improved, they just need to make the world and environments feel more full of life because the last 2 crew games felt too lifeless all the citys. This could be the best crew game maybe
Man they answered the call on that, they went from lifeless in the crew 2, to probably the most dynamic NPC system in a racing game. they added racing NPCs that are literally racing all over the city, so you dont just got those regular NPC cars, now theres also full blown racer NPCs and its so cool watching them race all over the city, and they interact with you when you drive up on them, its's pretty cool.
Forza is hardly the first to do this. Test drive did it better, TWICE, back in the day and having grown up on Oahu in Honolulu, I have to say a lot of the locations in the game make me smile because of the accuracy of placement. It's not 1 to 1 but It's closer than I expected.
We have similar shooting games why we can't get similar Racing games. Motorfest it's not the best but it's something different and accecible for all except by those from Nintendo.
IMO it has already passed Forza Horizon 5. Forza Horizon has been going downhill after FH3, after that it's just recycled content and no real improvements. So Forza Horizon officially died for me after FH3. After FH3 they didn't feel like a car enthusiast game anymore, more of just another generic open world arcade driving game. Motorfest has more positives than Forza Horizon 5 does so 🤷🏻♂️
A better Map than Horizon 5. I just said at it's lauch, it's horrible just don't know how people was happy with an American México map. México have enough Cities and Escapes for create a good map but they only created a Desert and that's ok but With Supercars?
The car handling feel was the crews largest downfall and will be the make or break . Looking forward to having test drive / crew and forza around. The competition will be healthy for gamers
I actually think the map was too big in many of the car games and I think the size of this map is actually perfect. I don't want to spend half an hour going from A to B I just don't
@@jorgec3577 yeah I'm the same mate I have a life Kids mortgage job if I'm lucky I get an hour of gaming a day and I like to just jump on and have a quick race so this game will suit me. I can just grind away at my leisure, don't have to get through it in one weekend.
Motorfest will be the clear winner for PS5. Regret buying PS5 instead of XBSX, miss horizon so much. I will try 5 hour trail from sep 15 and decide if i can enjoy motorfest like FH4 on my XB1X. If i can enjoy i will buy right away otherwise its a pass from me.
@@UFCWWE69 iguess you are right , people like me own Xbox i do have PC thoguh. Sony does release some of their exclusives from time to time on PC so there is that (i think there will be God Of War Ragnarok this year for PC). It runs on Windows which is Microsoft who owns Xbox
1. Microsoft is diverting Playground Games from the FH series. FH5 is low quality, repetitive, buggy, and unpolished (even on Xbox Series X) in relation to previous Horizon games. The only major advantage, graphics, is thanks to ForzaTech, not the FH5 team itself (most of which already left Playground). 2. There are no plans for FH6, even though it has been two years since FH5's launch, the typical time gap between successive Horizon games. 3. Motorfest is available on Playstation, making it a 'cosmopolitan' game, vastly increasing the market size. 4. Ivory Tower has a tradition of supporting games with free, massive expansions & DLCs. 5. Limits of the ForzaTech engine render it (pun intended) unlikely to ever support boats & planes, putting the series at a fundamental disadvantage against The Crew series. 6. Motorfest might appear to be a 'copy' of FH, but the presence of Kauai & Maui on the map implies a future multi-insular playground, unique in RAC games. The current Oahu map is already 50% larger than Mexico of FH5 and is infinitely more expansive considering actually explorable water & air. In reality, the direction of Motorfest is more of a general 'mix' of all arcade RAC games, and is a step in the right direction.
And this is from a person who genuinely hated TC2. TCM here is a course correction in the best way possible, although I wish they kept the 1:1 Oahu size.
@@metallicafan416 That's exactly the problem. The leaders leave, the games see a noticeable dip in quality (in Motorsport as well; distractingly bad), no plans for the next entry, & commanded by Microsoft to work on an _entirely_ different franchise. I'm NOT confident about the future of FH (if there is any).
The devs in motorfest have said it takes 10 minutes to drive around the whole map. While it takes 11-12 minutes in Horizon in the fastest car. Hmmm 50% bigger map? 😂 makes sence
If you look at the player engagement chart for Forza, it's been on a huge decline since the last version of the game came out. Now, as an AVID Forza fan, this saddens me, however it makes sense. It's rehashed from the same formula as Forza 4. No real change. Now, with Moterfest we have a bigger map, better looking environment. Just overall, a much prettier looking game. I have a much more fun time playing Moterfest. Moterfest is on the up and The Crew 2's chart engagement has gone up. As a Forza fan, Moterfest is better. Yikes, can't believe im saying this :p
You will loose content but then those car will come someday and also you can always get the base models. And then if you get the gold version with a less price you will get the 2 Exclusive and all the cars from September to that month in your garage when you start.
Its not going to surpass it. But this is an amazing first step to a real comparable brand for people not on pc and xbox. Maybe the game after next, if they keep improving, will actually be on par with Forza. But this is Ubisoft. So im going to take the fact we've got a solid game and run. Gt7 has been garbage outside of driving. Nfs has janky physics and is neglected. And thats about the only option PS5 players have for casual non sweating racing with street cars. Im excited. Im happy. And thats all ive wanted for damn near decades from a racing game.
Also to put in context Horizon 5 came out nearly 3 years ago, and Motorsport 7 came out in 2017. Next Motorsport comes out Oct 10. and yes it will be a tall order for this game to surpass any Horizon game only real thing this game has to offer is a wider variety of customization the car list is too complicated not saying I don't like it but you have rb19s and sf19s and airplanes which in my opinion is too much and the driving physics are too "arcadey"
Forza Horizon 5 came out November 1, 2021. So it's not even 2 years old, let alone 3 like you said. As for The Crew Motorfest surpassing any Horizon game, that's very subjective. The Crew has bikes, boats and planes, Forza does not. I can also tell you've not even played The Crew Motorfest, yet here you are commenting on the driving physics. Ivory Tower have changed the driving physics for this installment, and after playing the beta I definitely noticed the difference. If you're going to start calling the game "arcadey", well so is Forza Horizon 5. If you want something more simcade, you're looking at Gran Turismo 7 or Forza Motorsport
Lol its not subjective buddy its real, its the truth actually lol and you're absolutely right I didn't play Motorfest but I can see with my eyes and I can comment on what the hell I see. I'm not complaining it being an arcade of course Horizon is an arcade but far from this lmao you can't even compare the 2 because of how bad the physics on Motorfest! your argument is a joke buddy doesn't mean they don't have potential but they're not comparing only they have a handful of cars We don't have yet 🤣
Definitely not, the only big thing it has is the customization and I guess if you want to drive other vehicles as well but then again Forza has always intended to be a pure car game
FH5 is the worst Horizon game. FH3 is the best Horizon. This setting (9r Japan) is what the fans want. Nobody wants to play a game set in Morrocco or chongwei province China lol Excited to try this out, already pre-ordered (at least until FH6 drops)
The problem with the crew games unless you have good Internet, you can’t play them. I prefer games that I can play without the Internet. Or with. It’s nice to have an option.
@@josiahh8158wtf are you saying? if you play offline in forza you still have all your cars and can easily do all things except ofc playing online and seeing other players on the map
@@tobiasrydholm6589 you can't do the festival playlist which means you are locked out of half the cars. You can't use the auction so you are also locked out of getting them that way. I suppose you either had no idea these features existed or you conveniently forgot about them. I don't understand why people constantly bring up this no offline thing. How do you people update games ? Internet is a requirement for gaming, it is what it is.
Car physics and handling around corners are not good. Cars have a tendency to snap into oversteer without warning as you progress through the tight corners, and you need to correct this behaviour too often. There's no smooth cornering in this game around tight bends, it ends up in small zig-zags more often than not. Really detracts from an inmersive racing experience, to me at least. Didn't stop me from easily winning all the races from 3 playlists, but it certainly hindered the feel of a good racing experience. Compared with Forza Horizon 5, it's day and night in that respect, where car physics and handling are top notch. The island feels small. Also, several races are driven on narrow roads, can feel a bit cramped, almost claustrophobic. The scenery doesnt feel big, inmense, can't see much of it. Other things irritate me: music tracks can't be skipped during a race (some tunes are really bad); the AI wont stop talking; had to turn both volumes down to 0 in the menu, which means I miss out on the few good tracks. Graphics are decent on XSX in performance mode, although colour palette is too saturated in general and too orange at dusk. I get tearing at times, which is distracting and kind of disappointing in this gen of consoles. All in all, Motorfest is average, not terrible but far from great. Car handling and physics need improvement to be fun to drive. I'd give it a generous 6/10.
@@eSKAone- I meant that cars in Forza Horizon 5 are super easy to control around corners, the steering is progressive, unlike Motorfest's weird steering behaviour. I didn't mean top notch as in realistic like a simulator. Fun and controlable is what I'm asking from a racing game.
There’s really no looking a gift horse in the mouth here. There are so few arcade racers these days to criticize this game for lifting a setting. If the games plays well, looks good and isn’t riddled with money grubbing mechanics and is overall fun, it’s got my money 🎉
In my opinion forza was never a good game since forza horizon 3 cause they don’t have any traffic and after like a month of playing the games just feel dead to me and I like the crew series for actually having traffic and all it feels way more alive
I Mather how great game this game might be I’ll never play it due to no offline mode and having online connection required to play Nah I’m good, miss me with that bull shit
If they fix the physics I might consider. You can see that there is no slowing down and hitting the apex when you corner, you are just going around drifting every corner like it’s mario cart
For real. They say the physics is massively improved but it still looks like mario cart they way you drift every corner. Forza has always been clear when it comes to physics and always will be when it comes to open world driving games
Forza has its problems, but I dont get why every other arcade racing game has to have such horrible driving physics. Its like every car drives like a mustang, always sliding out the rear end and understeering into walls.@@tobiasrydholm6589
4 hours into the game and cars drive like pigs. Car physics and handling around corners are not good. Cars have a tendency to snap into oversteer without warning as you progress through the tight corners, and you need to correct this behaviour too often. There's no smooth cornering in this game around tight bends, it ends up in small zig-zags more often than not. Really detracts from an inmersive racing experience, to me at least.

Compared with Forza Horizon 5, it's day and night in that respect, where car physics and handling are top notch.
I said that before and then i forget i have Nfs Heat. The Crew 2 has a Terrible Handling but was different and i like it. I get tired of Drifting every Corner.
Who cares? If it copied another game how many first person shooters are there that copy other games seriously every first person. Shooter is exactly the same. When you think about it. Collect weapons survive. Shit people and move on and no one mentions that. So as soon as one car game is similar to another one, everyone is jumping up and down.
And It's no the same. Just tell me what other racing games gives you the oportunity to drive all of this? That's Right GTA. But we're talking about Racing games so wtf.
It’s better than FH5 simply because it’s cross platform. The Sony folks finally have a good, open world, arcade racer. The NFS offerings have been lackluster at best. And if you have an Xbox / PC and you played FH5, you’ve probably long since stopped playing the soulless, bland game that that is. I know I did. Forza Horizon is the only reason I own an Xbox and even I can admit FH4 and FH5 are trash. Will it technically be better? No. It’s not original enough. But Ivory Tower has found sone footing, people are taking notice, hopefully the folks over at Microsoft are as well. Competition is good. As is evidenced by how drab Horizon became without it. I look forward to Motorfest, and I’m a FH fanboy…or at least, I was
Man i always say WHY SHOULD I BUY A XBOX ONLY FOR FORZA? Actually i am a Nintendo Fan at the time when Nfs Most Wanted was in Gamecube but then i miss them once i got a Wii and then i miss those games from Nintendo once i got a Ps3. But you know? Am fine Playstation have good games but Xbox just don't have something, just Forza.
It's still The Crew, The Crew was made with an open world racing RPG in mind. It shows they wen't that route from TC1, TC2, and TCM. The Story in TC1 was just there to fill the time, even though it was an interesting story with a gritty setting.
I can’t get into normal racing games. Unless there’s combat style attacks. Like blur. Motorfest will get stale for me really quickly. Almost like I’m tearing up $70
For people saying this game is a forza clone:
The majority of the devs for Ivory Tower actually worked on the OG Test Drive games when they were known as Eden studios, which were the very games that inspired the Forza Horizon series to be born, pretty cool fact

cope harder - we all know forza is better
@SApcGUY it's a joke bra
I Like how this game reminds me of riders republic, but with vehicles. Super excited for it to drop 🔥
It is just that, a car version of riders
5 hour free trial at launch also,thats pretty consumer friendly

I can tell which game is which just by looking at the clouds. Horizon goes for photorealistic, while Motorfest hits the contrast harder.
I’ve never played Forza 5 but have always admired the photorealistic graphics, its awesome. That’s what’s missing from Motorfest.

Ivory Tower have changed the driving physics for this installment, and after playing the beta I definitely noticed the difference. If you're going to start calling the game "arcadey", well so is Forza Horizon 5.
If you want something more simcade, you're looking at Gran Turismo 7 or Forza Motorsport
Lol its not subjective buddy its real, its the truth actually lol and you're absolutely right I didn't play Motorfest but I can see with my eyes and I can comment on what the hell I see. I'm not complaining it being an arcade of course Horizon is an arcade but far from this lmao you can't even compare the 2 because of how bad the physics on Motorfest! your argument is a joke buddy doesn't mean they don't have potential but they're not comparing only they have a handful of cars We don't have yet 🤣
Hell no it can’t!
Can motorfest be played in offline mode?
Negative. No internet connection means you can't play.
Didn't feel Mexico at all. So def not worried about the setting. I think it'll hit for me.
In The Crew Motorfest for Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 console, can you do your own controller 🎮 key mappings?
Yes
Back that up yes .. I played it 3 days solid in the closed beta and it’s night and day compared to the crew 2
Awesomeness, I can't wait till Monday, because I pre-ordered the Gold Edition
Yes
crew 2 already destroyed F5
Crew motorfest already destroyed forza.
Deffiently not. The fact that they have worked on this game for so long and they still wont be able to pass horizon is just embarrasing honestly
Definitely not, the only big thing it has is the customization and I guess if you want to drive other vehicles as well but then again Forza has always intended to be a pure car game
U said watching, if u havent played it then u dont know from just watching.
Forza Horizon of course
exactly , didnt even know the crew was still a thing lol
Man I'm bummed I can't get it early even though I played the beta 😂😂😂😢😢😢
You can play it tomorrow if you get gold.
Its upsetting too me that it is basically a Horizon ripoff. I liked The Crew because it was The Crew, and I liked Horizon because it was Horizon.
forza horizon is a tdu ripoff. please shut tf up
Short answer: No, it cannot.
Lol facts
Thanks for saving me 9 minutes
ForzaZ H 5 , coming up 2 years old / 9 Nov, 2021 -
Hawaii is a good location it's not a miss step like your describing 🙄🤣
FH5 is the worst Horizon game. FH3 is the best Horizon. This setting (9r Japan) is what the fans want. Nobody wants to play a game set in Morrocco or chongwei province China lol
Excited to try this out, already pre-ordered (at least until FH6 drops)
Fh5 is deffiently not the worst. Fh4 has been the worst in the series
@@tobiasrydholm6589 sorry that you have a different opinion
The problem with the crew games unless you have good Internet, you can’t play them. I prefer games that I can play without the Internet. Or with. It’s nice to have an option.
In forza if you don't have internet you are only playing half the game with half the cars. It's the same thing.
@@josiahh8158wtf are you saying? if you play offline in forza you still have all your cars and can easily do all things except ofc playing online and seeing other players on the map
@@tobiasrydholm6589 you can't do the festival playlist which means you are locked out of half the cars. You can't use the auction so you are also locked out of getting them that way. I suppose you either had no idea these features existed or you conveniently forgot about them.
I don't understand why people constantly bring up this no offline thing. How do you people update games ? Internet is a requirement for gaming, it is what it is.
They know Forza has a hige community and they want them views and likes.
We need more competition. Unfortunately, Horizon stands in its own league. I believe we can expect something better from TDU Solar Crown.
Car physics and handling around corners are not good. Cars have a tendency to snap into oversteer without warning as you progress through the tight corners, and you need to correct this behaviour too often. There's no smooth cornering in this game around tight bends, it ends up in small zig-zags more often than not. Really detracts from an inmersive racing experience, to me at least. Didn't stop me from easily winning all the races from 3 playlists, but it certainly hindered the feel of a good racing experience. Compared with Forza Horizon 5, it's day and night in that respect, where car physics and handling are top notch.
The island feels small. Also, several races are driven on narrow roads, can feel a bit cramped, almost claustrophobic. The scenery doesnt feel big, inmense, can't see much of it.
Other things irritate me: music tracks can't be skipped during a race (some tunes are really bad); the AI wont stop talking; had to turn both volumes down to 0 in the menu, which means I miss out on the few good tracks.
Graphics are decent on XSX in performance mode, although colour palette is too saturated in general and too orange at dusk. I get tearing at times, which is distracting and kind of disappointing in this gen of consoles.
All in all, Motorfest is average, not terrible but far from great. Car handling and physics need improvement to be fun to drive. I'd give it a generous 6/10.
Forza physics top notch lol
@@eSKAone- I meant that cars in Forza Horizon 5 are super easy to control around corners, the steering is progressive, unlike Motorfest's weird steering behaviour. I didn't mean top notch as in realistic like a simulator. Fun and controlable is what I'm asking from a racing game.
There’s really no looking a gift horse in the mouth here. There are so few arcade racers these days to criticize this game for lifting a setting.
If the games plays well, looks good and isn’t riddled with money grubbing mechanics and is overall fun, it’s got my money 🎉
GTAV did this without even trying
GTA it's another thing just don't fit in this battle. Nothing can beat it.
In my opinion forza was never a good game since forza horizon 3 cause they don’t have any traffic and after like a month of playing the games just feel dead to me and I like the crew series for actually having traffic and all it feels way more alive
It just did for me lol😂
I Mather how great game this game might be I’ll never play it due to no offline mode and having online connection required to play
Nah I’m good, miss me with that bull shit
I want lots and lots of Nitrous on everything.
dont compared them there two diff games
become a Christian today!!
No because forza horizon fans refuse to try any other game
If they fix the physics I might consider. You can see that there is no slowing down and hitting the apex when you corner, you are just going around drifting every corner like it’s mario cart
Not true. Almost 4 hours into Motorfest. Cars handle like pigs around corners, they snap into oversteer withour warning. Not good.
It already did FH5 boring asf
It rather trails FH5.
The driving at 7:27 was all I needed to see to know how much of a steaming pile of shit this game will be.
For real. They say the physics is massively improved but it still looks like mario cart they way you drift every corner. Forza has always been clear when it comes to physics and always will be when it comes to open world driving games
Forza has its problems, but I dont get why every other arcade racing game has to have such horrible driving physics. Its like every car drives like a mustang, always sliding out the rear end and understeering into walls.@@tobiasrydholm6589
4 hours into the game and cars drive like pigs.

Idk fh is just boring asf so if motorfests tasks feel good itll probably be my new driving game
Forza for the playstation
Most of us want the Nordschleife and the Nurnbergring GP!
hell no its to flipping small and has the same level of detail that the crew 1 and 2 had
You test it on PC or maybe you don't even tried the beta did you?
Nothing can beat NFS driving mechanics.. even though nfs games are not great but they driving mechanics are the best
I said that before and then i forget i have Nfs Heat. The Crew 2 has a Terrible Handling but was different and i like it. I get tired of Drifting every Corner.
True with Criterion, not so much with Ghost.
@@Nexus.Achiles ghost is much better than UBI soft
@@bpclubsport7879 yes, but not at Criterion level
Who cares? If it copied another game how many first person shooters are there that copy other games seriously every first person. Shooter is exactly the same. When you think about it. Collect weapons survive. Shit people and move on and no one mentions that. So as soon as one car game is similar to another one, everyone is jumping up and down.
And It's no the same. Just tell me what other racing games gives you the oportunity to drive all of this? That's Right GTA. But we're talking about Racing games so wtf.
No.
It’s better than FH5 simply because it’s cross platform. The Sony folks finally have a good, open world, arcade racer. The NFS offerings have been lackluster at best.
And if you have an Xbox / PC and you played FH5, you’ve probably long since stopped playing the soulless, bland game that that is. I know I did. Forza Horizon is the only reason I own an Xbox and even I can admit FH4 and FH5 are trash.
Will it technically be better? No. It’s not original enough. But Ivory Tower has found sone footing, people are taking notice, hopefully the folks over at Microsoft are as well. Competition is good. As is evidenced by how drab Horizon became without it. I look forward to Motorfest, and I’m a FH fanboy…or at least, I was
Man i always say WHY SHOULD I BUY A XBOX ONLY FOR FORZA? Actually i am a Nintendo Fan at the time when Nfs Most Wanted was in Gamecube but then i miss them once i got a Wii and then i miss those games from Nintendo once i got a Ps3. But you know? Am fine Playstation have good games but Xbox just don't have something, just Forza.
It won’t
Short answer, no. I think Motorfest is too occupied with trying to copy Forza Horizon, rather than focusing on what made The Crew unique.
🤡
How lol because of the map? Boats planes bikes are in motorfest that's what made crew 2 unique
Unique doesn’t automatically mean good.
@artarealmblazer8452 well its the crew 2 but better so likeee what aspects make it worse?
It's still The Crew, The Crew was made with an open world racing RPG in mind. It shows they wen't that route from TC1, TC2, and TCM. The Story in TC1 was just there to fill the time, even though it was an interesting story with a gritty setting.
Forza horizon will always win because you can play it offline
If I had a Xbox or pc I definitely would choose for Forza, but for us ps players this is a good one
Last !
Forza horizon 4 is better than 5 it’s pathetic
if its not on gamepass, no chance.
It’s not gonna be
I can’t get into normal racing games. Unless there’s combat style attacks. Like blur. Motorfest will get stale for me really quickly. Almost like I’m tearing up $70
Play nfs: hot pursuit, youl love it
I hate Microsoft, so yes definitely, I hope that the crew is better and best Microsoft rubbish horizon games.
they just copied Forza horizon and Forza released in 2021 and looks better than this game
Yeah it’s embarrasing really
No rear view mirror, no purchase
So, you telling me you won’t get the crew motorfest cuz you can’t see through a damn mirror Bru
