Could anyone tell me whether this game is available to digitally pre-order and pre-load in the UK? and if so, will we be able to download a VIP pack separately if there is one?
 
I have to admit, I am a bit nervous about Horizon 2 because of the current audio bugs in F5. Horizon 2 is using the exact same game engine for H2 on the X1. I will probably wait and keep an eye on the feedback before I get this game now. If it carries over the same audio problems from F5, that will be a major problem for me. :ouch:

As for the sound track....don't care. I always turn the in game playlist down or off anyway in every game I play. Especially racing games. I like to hear the engine, the tires, ambient sounds, and the cars around me. Don't want to hear music.

What do you mean by audio problems?
 
Audio bugs where present in Fm4, but I dont remember anything happening in FH1. Maybe its just been to long though, and I just forgot.

Dont know much of anything else on the list so I'll atleast give them a try.

Why are the only DnB contributions from Hospital Records? The only tracks I'm going to listen to on that station are the Fred V & Grafix tracks, the others don't mesh with racing properly. Rob da Bank should've looked into the lesser known acts like Maduk, Rockwell, Silent Witness and Feint for better tracks. The other stations I have almost no problems with.
 
Anyone mind copy-pasting? Browser not supported on mobile...

Edited, didn't see ImaRobot pasted it already.

Not much I know of here except a few. I wasn't aware of much of the songs on FH1 but they grew on me, some are now my favorites. Hoping this will be the same.
 
I don't know any songs on that whole list. :lol: There is a song featuring Toro y Moi, so that's promising. I'll probably be listening to the electronic station or the indie rock station.

It isn't tree'd anymore then?

Ninja'd means quickly editing a post before it says 'this was edited' on the original post. Tree'd means beating someone to it. 👍
 
That Red Eyes track by War On Drugs is one of my favourite songs at the moment.
 
SVX

Its not quite what you think, but it is still a nice song. Heres the Video.

Also, Toro Y Moi is great, have a couple of his vinyls and saw him at the Surf opens that was here in Huntington beach some years ago.

Whoops, I ment tree'd then haha.
 
As if 'How You Like Me Now' wasn't used enough already. :rolleyes:

Would have expected a better Ninja Tune selection, but at least they included half decent tracks from Mr Scruff and Two Fingers. Horizon Pulse just looks like one of Rob da Bank's current Radio 1 show playlists.
 
I recognised 6 songs in that list, did slightly better than expected as I don't listen to much music.

Many songs I've never heard of so will probably have a listen through all the stations and see if I enjoy any of them, if not it'll either be classical or turn the radio off. Hopefully no songs there will irritate me as much as FH1's Bom Bom Bom.

Same with me. I even bought a couple albums based on songs from FH1. I'm going to give all seven stations a thorough listen. I'm sure I'll find plenty to enjoy.

I love the idea of Radio Levante and will listen to it a lot, but I'm wondering who the actual performers are? What orchestras or ensembles? What conductors? What soloists, if any?
 
That's quite the list of music, :tup:granted only a few songs I actually know are on there so I'll be getting used to some new tunes in the future. ;)

I'm calling this now, find/buy the old jeep and race through a vineyard with Ride of the Valkyries blaring on the radio. :P:lol:
 
That's one crap music setlist.

The opera and classic music are definitely the most awesome ones. Carmen? Hell yeah!
