Forza Horizon 6 - General Discussion

[Carnerd1703]

Horizon Mascot Party to me's all about cute and small JDM cars.

Here are my speculations on the playlist content:

1991 Suzki Cappuccino (Spotlight car)
2003 Suzuki Twin “Pandem Mini R32” (alternate spotlight car)
1974 Toyota Celica GT
1968 Subaru 360 (FM7 Returnee)
1995 Mazda 323 GTR
1995 Honda CR-X Del Sol (FM4 Returnee)

Car pass-wise:
2024 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
1986 Honda Accord Aero Deck
1992 Nissan NX-2000
2002 Toyota MR-S

All good shouts

In the Eliminator, I found a level 6 Trophy Truck pretty quick. I hid out for most of the game, but while trying to move forward as the arena was contracting, my truck fell down a cliff and into a small space between the cliff face and an Armco barrier. With trees front and back, I was 100% Austin Powersed in there. Nothing I did could break me loose, and the game refused to reset me. I was eliminated by the arena itself. Fortunately, I finished somewhere in the mid-20s, so I at least beat the challenge.

See? This is why we need sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!

No, we need the jumping jacks of the Mach 5.

 

[CGT980]

No, we need the jumping jacks of the Mach 5.

Why can't we have both?

 

[Populuxe]

I could have the Mach 5 with jumping jacks and sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to the hood, and bowie knife99 would still wipe the floor with me.

What about some mutant sea bass? We should have those in a fish tank for our garages!

This game is so photogenic, I’m tempted to make my own Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji.

I was doing a Stunt Party today, and was first to a danger sign. (I mean, that Ultima is seriously fast. Also, the two cars ahead of me both over-cooked it and veered into the trees before they hit the jump.) I made the jump and it told me my jump was 1,001 feet. Then it said the group progress was 1,000 feet. I have no idea why the numbers were different.

This happens to me all the time when I score first and not just danger signs but drift zones and speed zones too for some reason. It’s never a big margin just a tiny bit but the team total is often just slightly less. I use the Ultima for all my Stunt Parties as well so no idea if it’s car specific or not. I got the idea to use the Ultima for the PR stunts from someone on here so it could’ve been you potentially LMAO!

It could be. I did post about using the Ultima for everything except drifting. And yeah, I get the same thing when I score first in things like Speed Zones, Speed Traps, Danger Signs, etc. The group total is always just a little bit less than my individual score.

Taxes!

I even use it for drifting and have gotten pretty good at it although it definitely requires a good deal of e-braking. I like traditional RWD drift cars for tarmac but there are so many dirt and gravel drift zones that I stick with my AWD Ultima with Rally Tires for all Stunt Parties.

I can see the appeal of getting one car to do it all but could never find a suitable tune to get the Ultima to work for me.

When Stunt Party time comes around I normally use a Dodge Viper FE for Trailblazers, the Dodge or Mazda MX-5 FE for danger signs and a Honda Beat or Sierra 700R for Tank-smashing and bamboo breaking. I also have a Nissan Dream Project S15 WTAC tuned to X999 for speed zones and limit breaker rounds. Drifting is covered by the '69 Abarth.

Do you switch cars in the middle of Stunt Parties or choose one car for Wreckage, another for Speed, another for Chaos, etc?

I try to do the latter but end up doing the former way too many times.

 

[RazorSharkz]

Ya, having one car for all my unlimited tasks was nice but the Hoonigan RS200 didn't come back so I kinda just wing it with whatever looks cool now

The Ford RS200 is just as good with DJS's tune and dominated S1 dirt events for me until I discovered the Jaguar XJ220.

I've been using the Delta S4 as my go-to for S1 dirt events.

It's easy to drive but the Jag pisses all over it pace-wise.

 

[GTvsForza]

I have the Evo VIII for B Class and the M2 is surprisingly good for A Class.

 

[Neon fans]

EDIT: there's also BYD, NETA Hozon, Bowler and Bugatti too.
Bugatti kinda strange, but remember, also in FH5 There was the credits for Alfa, Lancia ecc but at D1 we remember that those cars aren't in...

NETA has gone bankrupt and is unlikely to join the game anymore

The Hospital Records soundtrack was officially released yesterday on Spotify and other streaming/download services.

I wish they'd do the other stations or at least Gacha City as well although I have a good chunk of the tracks already by now. This game has done so much to broaden my musical horiz... ah, you know what I mean.

For me it's Opus, Sub Pop or XS for the radio stations. If I've just played an event and the radio is on New Wave I'll occasionally leave it on there as well. I've just never been a big fan of dancy repetitive beats.

You are right though about the stations introducing you to new bands. I've discovered a fair few new bands/tunes through the years via FH titles.

Was trying to hide yesterday to get 2 points in The Eliminator and every time, someone would disrupt me minding my own business and challenge to a head-to-head. Even when I was hiding in a forest. Christ, I hate MP!!! Thankfully, was able to snap up the Huracan Evo in the AH for 2 million. Job done.

Unless you come to a complete stop for a couple of seconds, and then don't exceed 10mph, your blip will still be visible on other players' minimaps.
