First Impressions of Forza Horizon 5 as a GT7 Veteran

OK off to a great start w that! thx so much

However can’t seem to get the clutch/h shifter recognized and the thing dumps me into reverse every time I get in the car

The button config is still a work in progress

I'll send you my button layout.
Works absolutely flawless 😉

Tesla hasn't been in a Forza game since FH3. Presumably they're not interested - as you've noticed Playground aren't shy about adding new EVs to the game, so I assume they've tried.

Thanks for the feedback, makes sense.

For many years I've jumped between GT7 and Horizon on Xbox, and the fact they can both exist in their own bubble, both near the top of their game is a wonderful duo of racing games to live with. Glad you're enjoying it now it's accessible.

I truly am enjoying it and will get FH6 if it also comes to the PS5. Yes it's that enjoyable and the music in it is on point, at least in my opinion. It has a hooking effect because when I switch it off completely to only hear the engine/exhaust sounds I get bored sooner compared to having the music on and playing for longer stretches. They must have cracked some science on how good music will keep people playing longer, leave alone the skill point boosting songs that come on every so often.

In any gaming session, I basically play GT7 with PSVR2 first then spend more time afterwards, playing FH5 till my free time allotment is done. LOL!

Has anyone noticed cars get dirtier quicker in the rally adventure map versus the main Mexico map? lol.

Makes sense with the new dust physics in the Expansion.

Thanks! I did not know that. Though it's way too easy for the cars to get fully dusty if I drive a car through a cloud of dust. like it hits maximum dustiness less than a minute. No biggie, just noticed.
