I miss Torben Tuesdays. They were great fun with us all speculating about what was coming in the next update. I hope they return in FH6.

FYI, this weeks trial has The Goliath as the third race. So better make sure to win the first 2 races 😏

Gonna be a lot of noping out otherwise

I really enjoyed the 2 Eventlab events this week. The speed zone this week I hate. My best time only just gets me through.

Hello, question for FH5 veterans.

I won a 1991 Toyota Sera on the wheelspin yesterday but when I am trying to access to it is sending me to the playstation store, I just checked and is part of a DLC pack.

Is this a bug, or is possible to get cars on the wheelspin but not able to use them until I pay for the DLC??

For me this speed zone in a Merc was much easier & less frustrating than the Mitsubishi speed trap last week (with much abuse of the rewind function, of course).

Hi bud. I've been playing for years on Xbox and never heard of this before. That doesn't mean I don't believe you, I do.

FH is full of strange bugs and quirks. I can only think that unless it's a bug it's a naughty trick used by the developers to entice the PS5 crowd to buy the car packs maybe?

Now I found last week's speed zone ok. Different folks, different strokes I guess.

I'll be abusing rewind this week myself bud 😂😂

Wow it does look like a very cheeky attempt to push car packs on players.

In my opinion it is a car pack worth buying, just for the Autozam. Having said that you should
only buy it if you want it.

I’m having terrible flashbacks to when I played this before on Xbox.

Where is it ?!

It must be a bug. I don't know if you can write a bug report for it?

Sadly us regulars have never had to deal with this potential bug since we all buy the car packs as soon as they are released... But I certainly don't recall ever getting a car pack car in a wheelspin on the Xbox/PC.

I had to do the race last night after losing the second one. If I didn't miss one of the checkpoints, I would've won and scored enough points to help my team over the line because my Jaaaag was FAST. Anyway doing The Goliath online for the first time was fun.

I´ve done the Goliath on a trial before some time ago. Probably when this series was first released.
I just know that it also was the third race back then and it was complete chaos.
Was happy to be able to avoid it this time around 😅

Logged in to buy my weekly Backstage Pass with my 1,200 "free"/glitched weekly FPs, and used it to buy the Lancia I was missing.

Enjoyed both the Eventlab events this week.

 

[skazz]

This week's eventlabs were both very well done.

Except for the tree in the middle of the racing line in the river bed. That was really nasty

 

[Seb75]

I went to a super- and hypercar meet today in Luzern. Saw some cars I´ve never before seen in real life

Bugatti Veyron

Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta

Mc Laren 765LT

Ferrari 12Cilindri & Purosanque

Ferrari 488 Pista

Ford GT

Mosler MT900S

Mc Laren 720S Spider

There where a whole lot of other nice supercars like Ferrari F8 spider, 812 Superfast & GTS, 458, 360, Testrarossa, Porsche GT3s, Lamborghini Huracan Performante, Mc Larens and Audi R8´s.
There was also a Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren, but I accidentally deleted the picture...

Yeah, the only thing creators can't alter is hard terrain features (rocks, trees, bushes, etc.), otherwise it would be perfect.

Some lovely cars there mate. I'm not jealous at all 😂😂😂.

Ah Xbox and PlayStation in perfect harmony on a car. It's a PR executives wet dream 😂😂😂

So Forza Motorsport is coming over too?

Cool cars, that blue LaFerrari though...

I bought Forza to convice Xbox Studios to release future Forza titles on PS as well, just doing my thing

Whilst working for the montly Festival reward, the Ferrari Dino, I got a wheelspin where I won the Ferrari Dino lol. Might be able to get some credits for it in the AH.

I already got 30 hours in on PS, really like the game so far, but wondering what the replay value will be after completeling all events.

The Dino isn't a very valuable car in the AH mate. It'll be worth even less once more people unlock it this month. If you're going to sell, now is the time.

One bit of advice when selling that works well for me. Set your buy out at the maximum value, however set your minimum starting bid low to get people bidding.

Replay value wise I still find it fun doing the monthly challenges even though I have all the cars. Also with the amount of really good Eventlabs you'll be very hard pressed to run out of things to do. Creating content such as liveries, tunes and Eventlabs is good fun too. There is so much more to do apart from the prescribed events in FH5 bud. You'll be busy for ages.

The events themselves have some replay value because of how the grid changes depending on your own vehicle. A big difference doing the same event in a Vocho, a racing truck, a hypercar, etc.

Very true. I enjoy taking the D and C class vehicles and playing with them. Tuning them for events they shouldn't really be doing. For me that's the part of FH5 that appeals the most. Using the everyday vehicles in ways you never would.

I don't think they'll need much convincing judging by how well it's doing in the sales charts so far.

Server capacity problems were almost inevitable given the influx of new players but now that they seem to be fixed I hope PS owners are happy with their purchase so far. You had a relatively easy launch of it compared to the rest of us.
