Finally had my encounter with bowie knife99, though it seem that his RX-7's livery has given up on him.

If I ever manage to ✪✪✪ Kodachi and Hakone it'll be a major incentive to delete all my drift cars from my garage.

Yayyy, at last. No more drifting for me. 🎉

Hopefully this will see an end to my endless laundry lists of complaints but I'm in no way serious about deleting my drift cars.

Only a crazy person would even consider wiping out a big chunk of their garage because they didn't like the way the cars are handled in the game.

If the bots cheat, cheat back.

Lower AI difficulty and use Auto Drive 😈

If that's the route you are heading to, change your final drive ratio all the way to the right before you enter the race, change it back to your original setting once you are in the race menu then you can take over all cars within a couple of seconds, even if you're in unbeatable difficulty.
 
What I don't understand in FH5 and FH6 is how certain racing disciplines are much harder than others, even on the same difficulty. For example, Circuit racing, Sprint racing and Cross-Country Racing (excluding buggies, pickups etc) are fine.
But then, you choose Street Racing or Cross-Country with buggies, ATVs, jeeps etc) and suddenly you're struggling to keep in midfield, even with your foot firmly to the floor.
Wtf is up with this??
The only real option is to change the difficulty settings but then, if you go too far in the other direction, it becomes too easy...
 
Well, I did some (un)scientific research with the Goliath and the difficulty level. If you drop it to novice, you will take 1st place early and you don't have to worry, after 1/3 of the race you won't even pick up the AI cars in the radar.

But, if you bump it to average then there is a complete change in their behavior that is almost exponential: They become more aggressive and bump into you, they take perfect lines and, this is the most aggravating part, they have unexplicable bursts of speed, even in mid corner (!), and even if you manage to take 1st place, the car behind will become an invincible alien that will just power ahead after it catches you.

I may probably abstain from the major races until the difficulty levels are corrected.
 
Still too early for expansion news. Maybe if we were still working on the timeline that FH1-4 used for its expansion releases, but they take a little longer now. I don't mind, since we seem to get more stuff as a result.

As I said, and expected, there was nothing Forza related.

Forza is one of Microsofts flagship franchises though. But Matt Booty did mention Forza Horizon 6 when he was talking about what they already launched this year. Still they should have announced something post launch related.

There's no reason to. You don't start announcing content less than 2 weeks post-launch. The game isn't desperate for players & you run the risk of debate that content was held back.


It was just Fable as predicted.

Have you tried The Gauntlet? It didn't give me any problems on Expert level. I think the only ones I had to run on Highly Skilled were Colossus and Goliath.

I hope we get a spicy announcement soon though.
