Forza Motorsport 7 is the latest entry in Microsoft's flagship racing series, bringing physical racing avatars into the franchise for the first time. 700 cars, dozens of tracks, and various other new features make this the best Motorsport game yet, and it's only going to get better when it goes 4K on the Xbox One X.
However, Forza 7 does suffer from a few issues in-game and out, with players reporting widespread download problems on PC. Posted on the official Forza forums, here's the full list of issues Turn 10 Studios is currently working to fix in future title updates for Forza 7.
