Seriously? I should've bolded more text, obviously. So, next try! To make it more clear and to not confuse people more than it already happened, I even "unbolded" the old bolded text.

Again, it affects gameplay in the way it does any modern racer. The reason why they're pointing it out is because they're used to Forza gameplay, and now they're experiencing different gameplay given that it's raining and it's affecting the formula. I don't hear reviewers hailing how it makes it so different to every other racing game in existence based on rain physics.

 

Nope. And the reason you are presenting is also not true which makes me wonder how you come to this post like at all.

 

"Bucketing rain is Forza 6’s biggest bullet point and the effect itself is astounding. It would’ve been nice if the wet weather was able to arrive and break up dynamically (as it does in Forza Horizon 2) because it would add some tactical spice to the racing, but visually and physically it’s extremely impressive. The streaking droplets on the windscreen, which slosh under the wipers and trace left or right with cornering forces, are a big step up from Horizon 2 – far closer to the likes of Driveclub – but it’s the 3D puddles of standing water all around the tracks that really make Forza 6’s wet weather racing an unmissable experience.

Hit a puddle with one side of your car at speed and it’s going to try to drag you off track, as that side slows from the drag of the water. Notice a small lake on the apex of your favourite corner? Take a wider line; you can’t steer when you’re skimming over the water’s surface like the world’s least-practical wakeboard. It’s not just slipperier; it’s like the tracks are actively trying to kill you. It makes for amazing racing, whether you’re behind a fancy wheel or content with feeling the feedback though the Xbox One controller’s criminally underrated haptic triggers. That this is all achieved with 24 cars on track and at an undaunted 60 frames-per-second is quite remarkable."

Again, take it as a service from me to you that I bolded an important part, again.
