Looks great, the cockpit view doesn't seem very necessary considering it's a full blown arcade racer but's its a neat option to have.


It's not a full blown arcade racer since all the cars are upgradable and fully tuneable now.  Plus the car models are based on cars in Forza 5 and all the cars in that game have a cockpit view and the entire game is based on the Forza 5 engine.  On top of that there are plenty of other games that are even more arcady then Horizon 2 that have cockpit view.

Im talking about the car handling, it's an arcade racer just like Need for Speed and what games are more arcade than FH2 and have a cockpit view?  There might be some but i cant think of any off the top of my head.

Does it really matter if it is an "arcade" racer?  The first game was very fun.  This game looks just as fun already before it has been released.  Anyways, Forza is a semi-sim racing game.  Forza Horizon is using the same handling from FM5, so it can be said that FH2 is a semi-sim racing game, but it is not an arcade racer like Burnout or similar racing games.  Even Need for Speed Rivals can be considered semi-sim.

No, Need for Speed is an arcade racer, i would never consider to be a semi-sim. I consider games like Dirt, Grid & Driveclub to be semi-sim. But i'm not hating on it because it's an arcade racer, just saying it's weird that it has a cockpit view for a game that looks like NFS type car handling.
