Idea for xbox/pc open world driving game

Hello, So I don't know where else to post this. I have an idea for an open world driving video game. It would be awesome If a developer could create a game, with Forza Horizon style graphics on a map the size of the crew 2 or larger including cars, buses,
trucks, and other land-based and water-based vehicles. Cloud based would be fine and probably necessary for the size of the game.

My idea is for it is to be more of a simulation styled Driving Experience rather than arcade. There could be races for cars, truck missions for delivering Goods to different places, bus routes you could drive, boat driving missions either passengers or cargo
, or just free roam in the world with any of the vehicles. Maybe even like GTA, have a character that can be customized and able to get in/out of vehicles in the open world, walk around and get in whatever vehicle youd like. You could own your own garage or
large warehouse to store purchased/won vehicles.

Like Forza or The Crew 2 you could customize vehicles to some extent and paint them however you want.

Real manufacturer vehicles instead of made-up ones would be preferred. Trucks could have single or tandem trailers, 24 or 53 foot trailers, Be able to pick up or drop trailers whenever you want in free roam. buses could be short or long in size, coaches,
school buses, city buses or RVs. Cars would be from hyper, super, sport, or daily drivers from all the major manufacturers, vintage or modern.

Think of it as a Mash between Euro Truck Simulator 2, Forza Horizon, The Crew 2, GTA and flight simulator (without aircraft). You could enable full simulation mode where you have to stop at gas stations and fill up periodically or turn off The need to fuel
your vehicles like you can do in flight simulator. And just drive endlessly. Flight sim allows users to just free fly without the constraints of money or missions. ETS does not allow this. I like the Flight sim model more. However it would still be necessary
to complete missions sometimes to make currency to buy different vehicles. Like forza and TC2, it could be an always online free roam with the ability to interact with other players in the world.

We are lacking a driving/ground vehicle version of flight sim and it would be awesome to have one.

Id say in a couple of years this will be possible on a console but atm you would need a lot more processing power to have a world that big with amazing graphics. The game you described sounds amazing and hopefully something like it is made in the near
future.

Or even as an add on: Forza Horizon 5: Midtown Madness

Midtown Madness was a ton of fun, and it was a Microsoft Game Studio game, so I imagine they still have the license sitting around somewhere gathering dust.

forza horizon is perfect as it is. maybe we could add an alternative story mode-type progress system that would opportung you to make and win the races to advance without sacrificing the open world

I saw an article detailing 2020 driving game releases and not 1 of them appeared to involve an open world driving game/sim focused release. I'm amazed that a developer doesnt seem to see a market for a driving experience involving many types of vehicles
in a free roam world with jobs or races that can be started whenever you choose. The crew, forza, ATS/ETS and gta combined is what I'm after. Trucks buses and cars shouldnt be hard to combine. Lets hope the new gen systems and 2021 bring progress on this front.
Especially after Microsoft flight sim 2020 will show what next gen hardware is capable of.

I really like the idea of combining FH and Euro Truck Simulator 2. It would allow much more powerful physical customization.
