Forza Horizon 6 - General Discussion

[MSZ]

..or cheat by going into solo mode, smash one, rewind and repeat..

This was exactly what I did.

 

[Mikey]

Yeah, what a crock that a 26th century vehicle still uses a 112mph limited petrol engine. I know Halo is a product of the early 21st century, but how short sighted were those devs?!

Master Chef and his contemporaries probably used Cortana AI and advanced technology to locate a previously unknown seam of fossil fuel deep in some planet's strata. That's how you know it's science fiction.

They shoulda gone nuclear like the Chryslus guys in Fallout.

My favourite gashopon was the one on top of the shipping crate which required a jump off the lined-up ramp to catch. Unfortunately when I saw it I was in a B-class Lancer from the Trial which couldn't make the gap and when I changed to a faster car the game respawned me on a nearby highway so I couldn't locate it again.

This one?

It's here:

I did go solo mode while smashing the gashapons, but I didn’t use the rewind exploit. I enjoyed the challenge of finding 15 different machines.

Trying to win a Cross Country race in one wasn't fun. I had to bump it down to Above Average grunt level just to keep up with the primitive twenty-first century vehicles I was racing against. A master chef I ain't.

After this week's AMG Transport Dynamics showcase and championship I think it's going to be a case of Halo and goodbye to this car as it languishes in my garage gathering space dust.

Yeah, had the same problem. Went to Naruo Cross Country Circuit and won that one instead of the Irokawa circuit I initially thought would be a cakewalk.

Doesn't help that, for some reason, the thing has absurd acceleration but has a top speed limited to 117 MPH. Feels like they nerfed it in between FH5 and FH6, 'cause I KNOW this thing used to be better.

The Marathon, finally. Though slightly disappointed it doesn't go all the way up to the mountains.

There'll be an update next year that'll make all playlist cars unlockable at any time, including past cars. They're not saying when or how exactly that'll work yet. But it seems like past playlists will be playable, or parts of them. My best guess at the moment, reading between the lines is past playlist events will always be playable, which will earn you points and maybe you can use those points to unlock the cars you want. Or something like the backstage passes.

They mention that time limited events/cars might not be completely gone, so playlist cars could be locked for a period of time before being unlockable with the new ways. But FOMO content will be "the exception rather than the norm".

Also Eventlabs will be back on the playlist starting from series 8.

I stretched out it's final gear for a higher top speed and scrapped a win.

I'm not a fan but my son from a young age has always loved the Warthog in game.

 

[Gooby]

I am actually the most hyped for the Datsun Baby. I didn't even know this car existed, but it looks like it will be so fun to screw around in.

Honestly, I am glad that post they made last month about being more communicative was not just a PR stunt, and they are following through with it. I am starting to look forward to updates again!

Quick edit: I read they plan to make reward cars always available. I really hope they follow through because FOMO is such a pain. Seriously though, this is great news!

I've just had to Google it as well mate lol.

Totally agree with you, it looks like it could be a blast to play around with.

 

[Confus]

If we don't get the crash guards for the Datsun Baby I'll be very salty.

They say in the video that they'll be on by default. I'm guessing that means you can also remove them.

This week is giving a flashback to Red vs Blue and this song.

Digging thru the road map:

• Looks like we're getting a strict format for the playlist. 3 New to Horizons and 2 recycled cars.
• That 15 recycled car drop in the Autoshow's interesting.
• So, the EG Civic is confirmed for February. This rules it out of my guesses for Horizon Holidays.
• What did they mean when they menioned "Reward cars always unlockable"?
• June 2027 is the target date for the Festival Playlist revamp
• Sung Kang's AE86 being added and the theme of the January playlist makes me think that we are getting a tuner-centered expansion
• The February 2027 playlist has a lot of drift props added, and a Drift Attack circuit, I'm guessing that we are getting a Drift-themed playlist (and maybe a drift-themed pack)

Those 15 "returning fan favorites" are definitely interesting. Quoting Will, "cars from the previous games coming back straight to the autoshow".

Here are my guesses:

• 2020 Audi TT RS Coupe
• 2020 Automobili Pininfarina Battista
• 2021 BMW M3 Competition Sedan
• 2024 Czinger 21C
• 2019 Hennessey Camaro Exorcist
• 2019 Jaguar XE SV Project 8
• 2012 Lamborghini Aventador J
• 2023 MG Cyberster
• 1961 Peel Trident
• 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 R
• 2018 Saleen S302 Black Label
• 2020 Saleen Sportruck XR Black Label
• 1967 Shelby GT500

Lola is from Sung Kung's new movie 'Drifter'

• 2020 Saleen Sportruck XR Black Label

I would love to see the Saleens and Shelby return.

The Outback Wilderness? Now I can drive my mom's car 😄

HYPE!

 

[PLAYERS86]

Wow..this is great!!! 😍

 

[RazorSharkz]

Ayyy the Marathon is back. We LOVE to see that. A roadmap is also very welcome. Nice to see them follow up on that post from last month.

 

[Digolgrin]

So the Drifter movie the AE86 Lola is from is directed by Sung Kang, a director on the Fast and Furious franchise. I think that 100% confirms it, Expansion 1 is The Fast and The Furious themed!

Looks like they were saving all the good stuff till after GTA 6 and the PS5 launch.

I got to meet Sung and he even signed my RX-7.

Drifter is a standalone movie not related to F&F in any way.

"Rewards cars always unlockable"

YES. YES. YES. FOMO IS DEAD. My most number 1 complaint has been rectified! About time! I'm also curious about the Festival Playlist revamp. I hated the Festival Playlist in FH5, it was absolutely boring.

As for the cars, Datsun Baby....Very interesting! Happy to see the Civic EG6 is FINALLY back and best of all, COMMODORE GROUP A SV IS BACK BABY!!! (EDIT: It's the 1991 version, not the 1988 version....Oh well, can't complain.)

As for the 15 returning cars to be put in the autoshow....Hopefully the FTO GP Version R, V8 Vantage V600, HSV GTS-R, Jaguar XJ13, Hudson Hornet and so on do return....

This is good news indeed!

I am so excited those are very good predictions hopefully my beloved 2018-2020 Bmw m5 f90 returns aswell as the project 8 Jaguar and im glad fomo is gone and we now have the marathon

 

[RazorSharkz]

Oh ya. New Auto show cars, very welcome as now I just have credits piling up with nowhere to spend them.

 

[PLAYERS86]

I think there the new 2024 cars seen in the road map

Not selling shirts with FH6 mascots on them is just leaving money on the table.

I mean, the series it's coming in is called Tuners and Exotics. Which is what Fast and Furious is nowadays, no? Similar energy to Horizon Wilds Takeover leading into Rally Adventure.
