I had to invest way too much money in that GR86 for the Playlist festival for a $25k payout.

Same here. At least I got 250k back from one of the wheelspins today.

1. Other people suck.
2. Other people who don't know it's a team race, and not about who wins, suck even more.

I often picked the slowest car possible in trials, so one of the AI cars would be just as slow, and I didn't need to deal with other teammates.
 
I finally joined the 4% and got in the legend club.

The track on legend island is so good

Can't wait for the PS5 guys to get their hands on this game. Would be awesome if it could go to Switch 2 at some point too. Honestly with the way it performs on lower end hardware, I don't see why it wouldn't.

Edit- I was able to get all the roads without missing any... bow to my greatness.

I heard that the showcase events are impossible to lose, so I put the theory to the test last night with the mech race. The results were rather hilarious:lol: I set off several seconds later than I was supposed to, so the voice lines triggered without the mech in sight. It does reveal a lot about how the scripted events occur- it's not based on the posiion of the opponent, but your position. The voice lines are therefore NOT attached to the mech, which I honestly find hilarious! Hearing the "splashdown" line without seeing the mech in the water is diabolical. You know what else is diabolical? Crawling across the finish line at 6KM/H whilst the mech is down on it's knees and reaching for the line. You literally cannot lose. Not sure how I feel about that but it sure is funny.

In trials seeing how useless most of my "teammates" were, I ended up trying to hold up the AI drivatars behind me.

Doing that I didn't have to repeat the trial over and over.

I sacrificed myself like Alonso so Ocon could win.

Defend like a lion.:lol:

They don't know that there's no "I" in team. I remember I was close to overtaking a teammate back in FH5, and he just went all in like a rolling roadblock on me, and I cursed at him through the mic.
 
Well, I played a bit this morning and I'm playing more now. I didn't expect the Horizon playlist to immediately offer hypercars as prizes, but I won't complain. It'll make some of the speed traps and speed zones easier to get. Although the Ultima I just bought last night has already been making progress with those.

I found the rest of the treasure cars, with a bit of help as I spent so much time trying to find the Ford GT for instance and got impatient.

For me, the length of the Festival Playlist is "just right" for now, but it will only get longer and more frustrating with the addition of the Trial for the next series, as well as activities from expansions.

And I have a new strategy: using my Xbox Series X mainly for offline activities, while I use my Windows laptop for the online stuff.

I was doing something similar for FH5.

I honestly hope they don't adjust things so that you need to do the trial to get the prizes, I hate online racing.

I got the big fast 😁
 
Some short musings after 20+ hrs

  • The world has so many great POI's and Parking spots. I assume they'll utilize these for the temporary car meets in the playlist, still very cool to see so many of these dotted around versus previous games. It definitely makes the world feel more authentic.
  • I love being able to put different rims front to back - pretty much every car I build I do this, even if it's completely unc
  • There are still a few cars missing the wheel spacer option (08 WRX STi, 97 M3 E36) which is a shame :(
  • Barely touched online, but I've really liked what I've played so far from Spec Racing. Exactly the kind of mode Horizon Play needed.
  • Soundtrack is a huge bop. Loving it so far.
  • Big fan of the wheelspin/credit rebalance so far. Not getting showered as much as FH5, but still getting plenty to be able to buy new cars, customize etc.
  • PG, where ma F-Type?
