I went hiking yesterday 3 hours so that I can sit on my ass the rest of the day to play horizon 5.
Im just starting, and the whole car voucher, gift houses, and extra cars like the taycan and this monster hoonigan car Ive been thrashing to the rev limiter has been getting me hooked.
I think I played that one canyon run , and the town mulege (right before the main title spalsh) like 5 times now with the volume up no racing lines, no rewind, maunal with no music.
I play with music off, helps as I like to capture and put my own music in.(been seeing alot of stutters in my capture on PC) But I realize it just more involved without music.
Maybe im a forza purist. Hard game to put down, just enough sim like feel in it for alot of sim lovers. and Silly enough to keep playing as a game.

I did a Super7 and obtained a legendary Lambourgini. Was fun to just have challenge after challenge after challenge like that. I do feel that, if you want to, you should be able to just hop to the next major race without having to manually drive there. I know there is a house that gives you the ability to fast travel to any road, but I still haven‘t figured out how to unlock that one.

It's actually the second season reward in the series. AMG-ONE is the first, spend your money on tuning your cars to get the season points as you get double the bonus then.
Yes, because I gifted one of my duplicates to someone else.
I'm burnt out today from almost maxing my season points. Earned the Delorean and the second car, working towards the AMG and Mclaren but need to wait for the roll. Got the most expensive house out the way so just plain sailing for me from here.
Forget the treasure maps, you only really need to consider this if you're specifically trying to max out the boards and it's not worth it until you have done the rest of the game and got the rest organically. Barn finds, you get a rumour then go and find the barn. You find it then you get into your garage for refurb. Eventually you'll get a notification saying the work is done. Then drive back to one of your houses, press 'X' and then click Barn Finds. Then it will be there to click on and claim for your collection.
Festival points are pretty self explanatory. Go into your festival playlist then scroll right. You'll see loads of tasks from danger jumps to championships. Hit one and it will take you to the icon on the map. Then you need to look at the requirements (e.g. S1 900 Modern Sports Car). Then you need to check your garage to see if you have a car. You might only have a Modern Sports Car S1 at 865, so then you apply a tune usually to get it to 900 to give you the best chance of completing the task. Alternatively you can uptune an existing A to S1 or go the auction/car show and buy an S1 if you haven't got one.

LMAO. Dude just go to the barn when you get a barn rumor. A guided barn rumor is one of the very first missions. Just play the game instead of being mad online, and you will have all of your answers!

Oh, you're just one of those weirdos that think only the genre they like is "real music", also the devs are Europeans.

Can you get banned by using Cheat Engine on Forza Horizon 5 from Microsoft store?

Fuck man its so tempting, and the performance hit is actually decent to still maintain 4K 60 on my pc.I don't know. I will blame it on Digital Foundry.

When using Resolution Scaling I had been getting weird black wave artifacts on the roads. I did some research and it looks like this is tied to SSAO and disabling gets rid of the artifacts. Just wanted to post it here in case somebody else was having the same issue.

can you give me an example of an electric car? id like to tray out
The game is amazing, can't put it down and honestly one of the best PC experiences I had on day one. I think its even less CPU intensive than previous Forza games. I can hit 60 FPS 95% of the time at high settings with a lowly FX 6300 at stock speeds. A 9 year old CPU ffs...
There are issues to iron out though. The options in Spanish are borked. Not sure why Playground does not understand the following:
Encendido = ON
Apagado = OFF
They have been having this issue since Horizon 3... I don't think they ever fixed it on those games.
And something I never liked about the series is car selection. Motorsport is my favourite of the 2 so I'd love them to do the following for FM8 but I think its highly unlikely: Car design gradually got boring past 2005. Most of the cars we have on the game are from the 2010s... maybe the most boring decade in terms of design for everyday cars. We should have more classics from the 60 through 2005 and get rid of those boring cars from the 2010s.
Also why there are so few European and Japanese everyday cars. We need brands like Peugeot, Renault, Nissan, Mazda, Toyota, Suzuki, FIAT, Alfa Romeo and many more to have a much larger share of the cars available on the game. There's too much emphasis in Hypercars, Supercars and sportscars. I'd love to have a Renault 11, Peugeot 405, Renault Fuego, Peugeot 505 and tune the hell out of those cars instead of getting a Lamborghini from day 1.

Sure, but the difficulty is weird, it kinda really depends on what car/tuning you're using.
Some will make it seem like the AI doesn't even exist, while with other it can seem near impossible to get a podium finish. Basically find a good car or tuning setup and if you demolish the AI with it, you can safely set the difficulty higher for that class of races.

I wish Microsoft (given their new approach to console gaming) would just add support for other controllers officially (e.g. Dualshock/Dualsense); they don't have to support the unique features of the controller just basic controller support, similar to how Apple has done it with the iPad. I should just sync my controller with the 8bitdo adapter and see if it works on the Xbox first, but has anyone had luck connecting their Dualsense to their Xbox? if so, what method did you use?
I would really like to use the DS with Forza. I don't know why but the PS controller just feels better in racing games to me.

My parents kicked me out of their house. Good thing for U-Haul's affordable in town rates on vans and trailers, only $19.95 when you reserve online 24hrs in advance.

I bounced off H4 pretty quick after being mad addicted to the 1st 3 games. This one is much better than 4 so far.
I tried to keep up with the club as much as I could while I was on time out.
THANKS

xCloud video I made. It's definitely running on Series X hardware. This is 'Performance'/60fps profile in the game settings.
Yes but it varies with car class and race type. I personally play with expert drivatars but for off-road races and s2 class , I sometimes have to take it down one level otherwise it gets too frustrating. I'm using stock vehicles for now so no upgrades or tunes. Rewind is your friend if you want to get the hang of racing at higher difficulties.

Played for a few hours yesterday. The game is gorgeous in first person view. It's just a pain when looking for the hidden barns. Everything else is top notch. Incredible graphics & gameplay.
Protip - Always use the drone for barn finds.

I hate the signs on top of buildings without any obvious ramps or jumps to access them. My biggest complaint so far.

Just wanted to jump in and say that despite not being a "car guy" or even a racing game fan (unless SSX and the original Ridge Racer for PS1 counts), I'm having so much fucking fun with this game. I'm often thinking about it when I'm not playing. I hope people look past the genre and give it a shot. Playground Games did an outstanding job. It's not perfect (I dislike the menus and some of the UI elements) but FH5 is probably my game of the year.

Which view do you guys run in? I’m usually used to 3rd person, but hot damn is it exhilarating rocking the hood or street level view doing 195 mph.
yeah those can be annoying. Though I think I read that you have to unlock more of the Stunt campaign ticket to get ramps to appear where they weren't before? If you haven't done that, put your accolades towards the Stunt festival. Maybe that will help
Great pics . Waiting for clarification that this doesn't result in some sort of ban before trying it out. It makes the car look more grounded.Don't want to keep spamming pics but i tried the RT mod and it does make a difference:

I love them, feels like trying to figure out how to do Shinespark puzzles in Metroid Dread
The game is phenomenal, I complained about the progression at first but I’m over that, this is the best Forza ever
