Forza Horizon 5: General Discussion

They did:

 

[Silver Arrows]

I'm surprised it took this long for the Brocky to be plucked from the depths that was PCARS 2's Fun Pack.

Can we get the F-150 RTR Funhaver from that game too?

 

[Stang616]

Seems like they are missing a few Fords there, like the F-450 and Escort London-Mexico rally.

Edit: Nvm, I clicked on the pic and they are there, lol.

Sounds like a configuration problem with the button bindings for your particular wheel than a design fault with the game itself then. If so it's not something that'd affect a lot of people as far as I can see.

Thanks for sharing that it's fixable, though.

Yeah, can just press a button and bang im back in neutral

I don't think I ever drove a dually truck in a racing game before, I'm kinda excited to try that F450.

Playground Games also mentioned that later on this week, the development team is planning to release the launch car list for Forza Horizon 5, including the aforementioned Bronco and Mercedes-AMG One cover cars. Brown did not elaborate on how many cars are launching with the game, but players can likely expect a number similar to the 450+ cars that launched with Forza Horizon 4.

Here's an image of the FH5 controller, for those who haven't seen it yet.

The translucent plastic makes this very tempting personally. Kinda makes me wish Microsoft would add this option for Deisgn Lab controllers, too.

 

[McLaren]

No AMG GT Black Series at launch kind of interesting (less I missed it?). Wonder if it'll be an early-DLC considering the car has been sold as a complimentary item to the AMG One.

I'm not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet, but looking back at the footage shown yesterday it seems to me the Taycan has working 4-wheel-steering in the game:

? Have they shared the AMG car list yet ? I have only seen the Mercedes car list...

Yes they have. (Check out the Car List WIP thread). 👍

 

[TealYellowOwl]

I'm surprised that the SL65 Black Series isn't coming at launch.

This is a car that has been present in every Forza game since FM3 came out in 2009. This isn't the first time this happens, as in FM5, it was only obtainable via-DLC (Road America Booster Pack).

I wonder if it will be made available as a part of a car pass DLC or as a Hard-To-Find car in future updates.

 

[Turboteg90]

Probably season rewards for the missing cars.

I posted the AMG list above in the same posts as all the new Fords.

Forza is sharing some wallpapers by the Mexican artists they’re featuring in the game.

 

[Populuxe]

New official Forza video for the Ford Bronco Badlands. I don’t recognize the song, but I’m sure it will be on the soundtrack somewhere.

I have a feeling this journalist had a too optimistic interpretation of whatever was said by Playground. At 1-2 manufacturers a day, we're not going to get the car list done by the end of this week. Especially if, by week, they mean 'work-week', which ends tomorrow.

In case anyone missed the awesome interview with Gabriel Garcia the Vehicle Art Director at Turn10:

Not too related to Forza Horizon 5, but here are the jobs that creative director Mike Brown had before he joined Playground Games.

Doesn't this look 'player-housey' to anyone?

It most likely is one of the player houses.

1970 Ford GT70 ? Never knew that this car existed until today lol Reminds me a bit of the Ferrari Dino ^^

Yeah, it was going to be their Porsche/Alpine-killer for rallying until design flaws and the fact that the Escort was a big success in rally put it on ice. That's the fun thing about Forza games: a lot of opportunities to look into the more obscure (and notorious) corners of automotive history.

 

[Marqus]

Still waiting for someone to remember the Ford Indigo.

Or the GT90.

Alright, I guess there's no Mexican foxbodies to look forward to, that's a bit sad.
