Hello everyone. Good day to all. I played the new Forza Motorsport last nite and noticed the female track announcer was gone. Normally, once you choose your track and race setup she would talk about the selected track before the race. Did they remove her with the latest update number 14? I noticed they added a new track in the last update. Puzzled because just a few days ago her voice was in the game describing the Maple Valley track before my race. Now she and the subtitles before the races are completely gone. If anyone knows of this or has noticed the same thing please elaborate. thank you.

She's on annual leave for a week, she'll be back.

I hope so, you can hear the obvious things she spouts so many times before it gets tiring. "In this track it's important to follow the racing line" or something. Cool, thanks.

No, she's still there. But as usual, it seems that whenever they update the game, something else goes wrong. So it just might be a bug for now.

Thank you. Yes I wondered if the last update made the subtitles and her voice disappear because both are now gone as the track loads in. I thought it was okay due to the fact she would give details of the track origins as well. Hopefully they fix this soon.

So it seems after the December 9 Update 15, which added a new track among other things, the voice that detailed the tracks is still gone. She would talk about the track origins before the race mostly. Surprised no mention of this in their notes as to wether she was removed intentionally or just another mess up on their part as in previous updates.

That's really odd. I played yesterday and she was there. Said something about noise decibels on one of the tracks.

Yes she has been gone on mine since two updates ago. Update 14 to be precise. She was gone and yesterdays update 15 did not restore her. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game but nothing. This is very strange indeed and none of the options menus have any types of settings that would allow for her voice to be turned on or off. She would give a little insight to the various tracks before your race would start. I wonder if this is only affecting some people like me while you said she was still there for you yesterday. very odd indeed. One would think the devs would be onto this if they were doing their jobs and address it. Perhaps there is a way to reach out and let them know? Just seems very weird.
