I found the force feedback in FM horrible tbh, especially compared to other games out there. But as I don’t plan on using the wheel on FH, I don’t really care this time.

Well, respectfully, I wouldn't call the force feedback in FM horrible. It just comes with suboptimal settings out of the box, and it's very hard to adjust and get just right, because of the complicated menu with all the different sliders.

After following HokiHoshi's guide I found settings that made the FFB feel on par with GT7 and almost as good as Assetto Corsa.

So, I agree with @PJTierney. I hope the driving experience in FH6, with a wheel, is better than FH5 and more like FM23 (but perhaps with better base settings out of the box).

I imagine many simracers will want to try out the touge racing and drifting with a wheel in FH6, so there should be incentive for good wheel support and feel.

It took PGG until Series 19(!) to implement adjustable max rotation for steering wheels on FH5. I hope that's something we get at launch in FH6. At least we know that all wheels compatible with FH5 will work in FH6 as well. That's always something, I guess.

So, yeah, sorry for the long rant. But agree to disagree regarding the FFB in FM23 😉

They should also consider bringing back Ranked Mode! I still do not understand why it was removed in Forza Horizon 5. I still see a lot of good players playing the game and all the newer players are quitting left and right. They really thought removing Ranked would remove all the good players from these online lobbies but it didnt. All it lead to is newer players quitting and good players dominating unranked lobbies. And the problem can be solved by doing it how it was in Forza Horizon 4. Its important to please both newer players as well as dedicated players.

The starting sequence, the helicopter and the split times reminded me a lot of the FH5 Rally Expansion, which is a good thing. I enjoy racing against the clock.

The route through the dockyards feels like a rally super special stage, but with everything turned up to 11 😍

I wanted to buy more, but they don't sell them here in Brazil.

I got a code from a person living in America on Reddit and it happened out of nowhere lol. I recently found out that Trolli America is owned by Ferrero while Trolli Global is owned by Mederer GmbH. That could explain why its America only. Trolli sold its American operations in 1996.

Next Tuesday its the last day of March so its a shame they are done with it. They should have posted one last episode for that final day of March.
 
You needed a code from a special purchase of a FH5 Edition controller or Opi products... which you can't buy anymore...

Yeah I hate these. I have the Oreo Zonda and Trolli P50 but only because I had luck on Reddit. Never had a chance to take part in any of these. But getting the pre-tuned J50 wont be that bad though.

Can we use any car in Horizon Rush? This last video and demonstration really worked the best. 👍

I'm thinking that it is similar to Showcases where it gives you a pre-tuned car. I could be wrong.

From the IGN article

In the footage you’re watching you’ll note a rally-bred MG Metro 6R4 hustling through the stage, although in my preview it was its similarly untamed Group B brother, the Ford RS200, that was the hero vehicle.

Not sure if it's free choice from the outset or you have to do it in their chosen car the first time.

And with that, FH5 is likely officially at EOL. Outside of Series voting this was the last thing the community had any say in.

Why did they stop adding cars more than 1 year before Forza Horizon 6 even releases? It felt a bit too soon.

I wonder why this video is country restricted?

It's nothing out of the ordinary. Broadcast rights for media vary from country to country, and it may be that the channel owner - even if it's the media creator - doesn't hold broadcast rights in what looks like the EU.

As it's nothing to do with Forza Horizon at all, it doesn't particularly matter.

Probably.

What's your answer here based on?

This could be a sign that the auction might fall through on FH6.

Now the auction is useless in FH5.

FH6 will probably still have an auction house. They did this with FH4 as well with the backstage pass before it went EoL.

To focus more development on FH6. Did the same thing with FH4.

The RS200 they mentioned. Just a guess.

The last new car was added 4 months before FH5 but this time its over a year which surprised me.

Then you should make it clear that you are guessing. Or, alternatively, not give answers that you don't know; you do not need to respond to every post from someone else in some way.


From the fact that the preview video was a Group B rally car and the reviewer's gameplay was in a different Group B rally car, one could draw the conclusion that - at least the first time you go through an event - you are locked into specific cars or specific car types for the events. However there is not enough information to guess either way.

Probably means neither yes or no. So I never confirmed anything. It just means I took a guess. And we will probably get more info in April to find out whats the answer.
Me saying probably leans to a yes direction sure while probably not leans to a no direction but its neither a full yes or no.

I also think that April wont just be the month of the huge car reveal bulks but also the month where big Youtubers get early access similar to October 2021 and Forza Horizon 5. But again we dont know yet.
