What on earth is going on with the drifting?! What was the need to change this from the fun and enjoyable physics of Payback. So disappointed, I was expecting Need for Speed and instead ended up with The Crew (in terms of drifting).
Yes I did and still do.
I've been playing Forza Motorsport 2 and I was drifting with cars, trying to get the right setup while the game was not made for drifting.
I own FM6, FM7, FH4 (completed all the drift challenge and Im only playing with the ABS).
The thing is, Forza Motorsport is made by a studio who own the franchise for 15 years. They only did racing games and only Forza. I can them credit for the mastering the drift thing.
Ghost Games made 4 games. The main difference is that Turn 10 is a sub-studio from Microsoft and Ghost Games is a former studio from EA. Big difference.
Hey, Brother, I would just like to add one comment to your nice post.
Forza VS NFS are two worlds apart in many ways.
Drifting in this conversation would be Forza is light years ahead in drift functionality and form than NFS in my opinion!
Have a great day.
Kept my promise, here is how I drift with my car. Sorry for the framerate, i recorded through x1 and then uploaded on onedrive. Didn't bother to record the whole race (you can't record more than 2 mins). I ended the race with 450 000 points with a 249 IP car.
Note that i did it on the first after getting back from work so there are many corners where i could done better.
Really appreciate everyones input into this discussion i have created. It is clear that drifting and other gameplay mechanics are an issue here. Im really hoping that with this discussion we have created, the developers listen to us and make the neccessary changes soon.

For the most part, I have given up on doing the drift challenges. Occasionally I spec a car for drift and give it a try, only to do no better than getting 2 stars and getting frustrated. I have followed the tuning advice given in the drift threads and that allowed me to get up to 2 stars, but I just can't get it to work for me. I am either just spinning my wheels or losing control and going off course. Not sure if playing on a keyboard is part of the issue or not, but I just can't seem to get it down. I will give it a try now and then but my attempts are getting fewer and farther in between, which is sad because I will not be able to unlock two of the cars in the game.
