I personally think garage customization is great and is something the Horizon series has been in need of for a while. But, I would've liked to have seen this in conjunction with some more aesthetic mods. The fact, for example, that an S13 Silvia has no licensed body kits outside of the same Rocket Bunny widebody is a massive letdown. I'll still buy the game and enjoy it, but I was really hoping for more in terms of aero options. After all, it is set in what myself and many others consider the epicenter of car culture. I just really hope they fix it with some post-launch content.
I feel you there, but if FH5 was any indication, they could (and likely will) still add new ones down the line. I'm guessing PG prioritized fleshing out new customization features over adding to the existing ones because of either licensing or time constraints or both, but once the game's out they can and should add free updates if/when they're ready.

Yeah people keep forgetting that this is a live service game and think that what they are making is one and done when that is not true.

Effective IMMEDIATELY:
GPU has been reduced from $29.99 to $22.99 per month (£22.99 to £16.99)

And PC Gamepass has been reduced from $16.49 to $13.99 per month (£13.49 to £10.99)

But (and it's a big but!)

New Call of Duty games going forward will no longer be "Day 1" on Gamepass but will follow about a year later.

It should be noted that the reduced prices are still higher than they were before the October 2025 price hike, however if you are not in a hurry to play COD it's clearly a better deal at the new price.

Presumably they can still achieve the 75 day1 releases that were promised for this year without COD.

The question is now how many of the subscribers that they lost with the original hike will "return to the fold" and resubscribe/upgrade to GPU (especially) or PC Gamepass and how many were "alienated" to the extent that they were lost for good.

PS As a side note, this is just in time for the release of Forza Horizon 6 which will now get an increase in players as a result.
I actually just came here to mention the fact that GPU has just had a big price drop which should mean more players for FH6, butttt I've now got myself an Annual Pass visitor ticket for 23rd May (about a 90minute drive for me)!

You can expect a separate post/thread about it around/after the event.
Hopefully it will less cold and windy than when I went there over Easter...

I have been using photos from my visit in the FH6 Countdown thread. This was my last one from day -25 and there's a lot more still to come..:

I hope the "Meet The Devs" event doesn't get as violent as the didi car races are bound to be. Will the PG reps be sitting behind a shatterproof glass screen in case the haters show up? :lol:

Talking of imaginary violence, I like that the drivatars in the preview build seem to display varying levels of aggression and competence. It makes the game feel more alive than its predecessor and more like FH1 to me. I actually feel like I want to take some of them on in head-to-head which wasn't the case in Mexico.

Here is a picture of the queue for the "Meet The Devs" event... ;)

More seriously, I think the event is going to be EXTREMELY busy so I can imagine some of the queues being veeeery long.

Just as long as I get to meet Tarbin/Torbin/Torben :D
Again, more seriously, I don't know any of the PG team other than him. Who else should I be on the look out for on the day, that might be there?

EDIT I'm going to setup a separate thread for the event to avoid it getting "lost" in this one.

I only know Turbine myself. He's the one that looks like Santa Claus.

I assume Don Arceta is US-based, judging from his accent. (EDIT: He's actually Canadian). Here's a handy photo of him to aid with identification in case he shows up at the Lighthorne Heath event.
