Forza Horizon 6 - General Discussion

[Johnny Caisse]

Man, I was quite happy to complete the Thunderbird Hotel Drift Zone with 3 stars. Tried to go the climbing direction and I managed 135k score out of 130k. For me it was hell.

To think some people posted scores of over 250k.

This and hairpins around the bridge Drift Zone (Can't recall what it was called.). Managed to 3 stars it with 344k out of 340k after struggling quite a bit. Some people managed near 700k score. How do they even DO this?

Hmmmm, now where have I seen that before...?

It was actually on the base roster of FM8 but sure i'll grind the playlist for it.

That has nothing to do with whether or not it makes the base game roster for FH6 or if it's on the playlist or not. Forza games consistently do not carry over cars from one game to another or make them available at launch in the next game either.


The entire point of putting cars behind the playlist is so people play the game to get the cars they want, player engagement is a huge metric in gaming now.

I'm on the purple wristband and now the first challenges I can't beat with my cars start to pop up.

What are the "broken" cars everybody is using for asphalt and for dirt speed traps?

Personally, I used a V8 and AWD swapped Viper FE to finish up a few of the trickier off road based speed zones and traps, as well as practically all the Trailblazers which I’d somehow completely missed. Truth be told, you could actually use it to blitz though everything, it’s ridiculously effective.

I own one of these; trust me, it’s not as useable or cool as it seems!

Except Cross Country. It's horrible at that.

I use it for Trailblazers and exploration exclusively as Speed and Drift Zones aren't its forte.

It's annoying how the MX5 NC has the foldable hardtop animation in Forzavista but it doesn't work in gameplay so you're stuck with the roof up once again

It's a issue with so many open top cars.

Should be 14.00 UK time every Thursday.

Playlist still closed, what's going on?

 

[Famine]

Playlist still closed, what's going on?

Assuming it sticks to the same schedule as FH4 and FH5, it won't be open for another hour and 15 minutes. 1430 UTC.

 

[UKMikey]

Seems like I owe @neddyie1988 a shamefaced apology. I'm holding out for 3pm as I'm putting it down to the clocks having gone forward for British Summer Time.

Either that or Torbay's still on the bog and hasn't hit the Playlist button on his master control console.

[EDIT] Or I could just read the post above mine

All i'm saying is that for me it belonged to the base roster.

 

[UKMikey]

The chore list still isn't active yet. That must have been one heavy lunch in the dev canteen with celebratory launch trebles all round.

Wish they could bring the old #Forzathon live announcer to announce it with a bombastic countdown. We should've held a betting pool.

If it really is at half past the hour, maybe it'll be at 3:30pm summer time. We should send Michael S YT to Leamington Spa to pester them with "Is it there yet" posts every five seconds.

 

[neddyie1988]

I'm still working my through the Horizon 5 Playlist each week.

 

[GlamFM]

Someone should perhaps revive the NeGcon twist-to-steer concept.

Now that was a controller!

I can wait.

Is this week's one already up?

 

[KILLER2JZ]

Well I finally got the LFA FE and created my own nurburgring edition.

Nope not yet 1430 UTC

Isnt it inspired by the Lexus LFA race car rather than the Nürburgring Package?

You can't drive a Cayenne like an Ariel Nomad..You can't drive a Cayenne like an Ariel Nomad...You can't drive a Cay...It'll sink in one day.

 

[Pearl Jam]

I’m enjoying driving this more than any car game that I’ve played for a very long time, it’s fantastic on a wheel rig set up and Japan is simply a masterpiece

 

[ALLSETFORMOVE]

I mean gold wristband is a grind. Lv100 in Horizon Play in just another level of grind... which ~1000 hours into the online sessions to pull this one off.

Forza Horizon 6 multiplayer achievement estimated to take 1,000 hours to unlock

Now that Forza Horizon 6 is out in the wild, players have found that the game's Maxed Out achievement will require a significant amount of grinding to unlock.

Yes it is but am I not allowed to create my own version of the nurburgring edition?

I feel like 1,000 hours is a tad over exaggerated; I’m level 19 and have probably spent about 3 - 4 hours in a mix of all modes, and I’ve not even won anything (usually finishing middle of the pack). Unless it changes the higher your rank goes, the level of XP needed to go up a level doesn’t appear to differ.

On a side note, I’ve just had the notification about the season change, so definitely 15:30 for all those in the UK.

 

[UKMikey]

I'm still waiting to see if Toblerone will be at the event on Saturday at the British Motor Museum, although I think its more likely to be his minions (we do know developers will be there - my guess is it will be the same two as at the Cars and Caffeine event). Perhaps this event will be Cars and Chocolate

They won't let him out on his own.

 

[Michael S YT]

Is it just me or is that CR-X a remodel?

Yes it is but am I not allowed to create my own version of the nurburgring edition?

Of course you are.

 

[GTvsForza]

Another FE collected: The BRZ

 

[Ali]

Lmao. I was quite unhappy to see the 296 GTB locked behind a game of Hide and Seek, but thankfully the game I joined ended the moment it loaded. I literally had no time to even do anything, but I got the car

 

[UKMikey]

Scotty just handed my ass to me so I guess I am not a Touge expert after all. Who knew?

Whacking it down to granny level.

[EDIT] Fortunately my gran was a highly skilled street racer. She always told me you have to attack the corners more aggressively.

 

[Tired Tyres]

I've watched YouTube video's of this game and come to the conclusion that it is Horizon 4 and 5 with new graphics therefore I will not buy it until it's in a sale on playstation.
