Forza Horizon 5: General Discussion

[Mafio]

Ive been playing Horizon for a couple of weeks now(98 hours to be exact) and yesterday I noticed your driver avatar bops their head during Skill Songs. As a person who does that in real life, I find it hilarious and one of the best little details I've seen in a racing game in decades.

Welcome aboard bud. Glad to hear you're loving the game. Listen to the radio DJ's chatter as well, that can be comedy gold. If you can try and grab FH3 and 4 for Don Thompson on the classic radio station in game. So well scripted and delivered.

The signs around Mulegé an Guajanato are also full of little easter eggs. Little things, really, but it's fun.

New livery, in both Forza Horizon 5 and Forza Motorsport.

More here.

Ergh, I know I may sound a bit childish but when I drive around densely player-populated area I wish there were Forza Link phrases for those who say ''You're too slow!!'' or ''Nice driving'' such as the possibility to reply stuff like ''I don't care.'' and ''Leave me be!''

 

[GTboyz]

Anyone else think the 6th gear on stock Ford Shelby GT350R is way too tall?

I googled it and what showed up is people complaining about it on the real car lol

Unlike GWR your paintjob appeared right on time. Let's hope the livery doesn't cause my Cooper to have a breakdown on the track due to the wrong type of tarmac.

Nah mate, it's more likely they'll put on a replacement bus service:

I have a 2016 GT its not a Shelby nor does it have the Tremec but in real life, what in the hell reason do you need to STILL be pulling in 6th? That basically overdrive for highway cruising.

These days, it's mostly either:
1. Overhead power line failure (which requires replacing half a mile of power line each time because they cut corners and made each section of cable that long) due to theft of the cable or vandalism of the cable
2. Overhead power line failure due to wind/storm/rain etc damage
3. Overhead power line failure because its shoddy quality; or
4. Signal failure (because the signals are ancient)

£30 billion+ on electrification, and the line is down atleast once every week between Reading and Paddington for the power line and once every week for the signals.... (never mind the rest of the line...)

/rant over

FH4 is sooo unrealistic because the Flying Scotsman runs 24/7 without any delays

Don't look at me, mate, I never voted to privatise the railways. Now we have the most expensive rail system in Europe with the worst service

A friend of mine has just visited her brother in Germany. He has lived in Germany a long time and says their rail system is also crap. It's a lot cheaper than ours, mind.

Anyway, back on topic - I got another missing car via Backstage this week. At this rate, I'll have the lot by 2028

If only they could elect someone who could make the trains run on time...

Can anyone please help me solve my problem, my Forza link is disabled from the beginning on PS5 and I have no idea what to do to enable it

Was on from the getgo but didn't help

Have you got a custom button configuration? It stops working if you reassign the Forza LINK button (umm... one of the D-Pad buttons) to something else.

Just default all the button configuration and did what you said but it didn't help, thank you so much for trying to help me I really appreciate it🙏

 

[Iceman37]

I also opened a ticket with Forza support

 

[DrG Master357]

Hi everybody, I would like to do car show like I've used to do in GT7. 1 judge 3 podiums 1st place get to judge and choose categories. If your interested hit me up 🗣

 

[Johnny Caisse]

While I don't mind having no drivatars or no leechers on Horizon Arcades (Especially this 👍) , is it normal I'm on my own on every map when I turn cross-play off?

Also, do you think of Pina Colada's and Burritos like I often do playing this game when you play it?

Li'l quick edit: I wonder if the next Forza Horizon will have better lite rock crawling physics. I dunno, I often get stuck on those rocks even with the appropriate cars.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Think I’m done with this game until something new comes.

 

[GTboyz]

More Kei cars for the next FH

It's also proof that FH6 being set in Japan is fairly obvious and won't be too far-fetched.

Hopefully the map is great with long expressways and touges

Same here. I hope the idea of the conspiracy theory of FH5's Mexican map being designed for Eliminator first doesn't carry over to FH6, should it be set in Japan.

 

[CarbonDaimon]

I still prefer FH6 to be in Germany.

 

[GlamFM]

I still prefer FH6 to be in Germany.

Basically what AC Evo is building right now would have been awesome. The entire Eiffel including the Nürburgring.

I’d be super happy about Japan though.

 

[Nacho Libre]

The game reached 50 million players sometime this week!
