Forza Horizon 5 Reviews

[phillipsanchez]

Damn big patch recently.

Fixed the jeep willy and afk Goliath cheeses.


Hope you all got your riches while you could!

If it allows me to do seasonals without wiping my progress every day, I'm happy.

[ScramFranklin]

so the game is now the biggest first week in Xbox history. 10 million players. Forza Horizon 4 had 2 million players first week.

I think forza online is still having issues. I'm getting disconnected constantly. They are still working on a hot fix or patch w.e



Anyone done the afk Goliath race? Did it for like 20 laps. Got forza rich real quick. Look up on YouTube but basically just start a Goliath race with the right car with the right tune and the right race setup. Rubber band controller trigger down to gas and go afk. You just put the settings on auto steer. You can get the tunes and race settings from premades people have mode online.

Got like 100+ wheel spins and like 10million credits and a **** ton of cars from it. Cheesy but doing it once will let you get whatever cars you want lol

Was tempted to do this but then I feel like the game wouldn't be as fun.

Congratulations you just ruined the game for yourself.

I never understood why people do this.

So now you unlocked all the cars bought all the houses got pretty much-unlimited money why even bother playing the game what is the point?

I feel like a huge HUGE part of what makes horizon so fun is the progress you make in the game, the grind to get wheels spins that dopomine rush when you get that cool expensive car from wheel spin or griding that forza money to buy your next hyper car.

Really hoping microsoft would do a bit of work to find out who all took advantage of this glitch and just make them start over again 0 cars 0 progress 0 everything would be 100% deserved. Its what GGG does with Path of Exile players that use exploits to get rich just deletes their character and you got to start all over..

Ive put in about 20 hrs in the game bought all the houses and have good amount of expensive cars i got lucky with wheel spins. Beat 4-5 final races and have the marathon (final main race) unlocked and i am already starting to lose interest in the game. Cant imagine having everything unlocked and actually still having motivation to play the game

Lmao who are you to tell Me i ruined the game for myself?

All i did was make it so I have enough money to buy whatever I want. I still have to go and complete all the races and stunts etc. It's the exact same game and racing doesn't become any easier.

I play on a racing wheel setup and the fun part for me is driving and making tons of new cars. Playing on a wheel is a totally different beast. I rarely ever drive super cars or hyper cars in forza. Every car actually feels and drives differently on a wheel setup. Even before the cheese I had 5 million credits which is enough for me to already buy anything I actually wanted to drive anyways.

Lmao at telling me I ruined the game for myself. It's actually the opposite.lmao at thinking I deserve to lose all my progress when I've got 30+ hours played and every major race already beaten using a racing wheel and shifter, playing in first person. Forza is a casual ass game Lmfao. Imagine caring how someone else's inventory is for a game like forza lmaooooo cringe as ****

You sound mad lol


and yes you 100% deserve to lose everything and start from bigenning for using an exploit. 100%












100%

Oh yeah i forgot to mention im having wrist surgery and won't be able to play for like 6 weeks or more so I had to cram my forza 5 into like 2 weeks of playing. Which was a big motivation to accelerate my forza credits.


I'm not mad you just sound like a Karen. It's a game where someone else cheesing to riches doesn't effect you at all. Youre just a forza Karen angry someone else enjoys a game in a different way then you do. Omg some guy put a rubber band on his controller and got an extra 10 million credits get a manager! Lmaooooo.


They won't take away anything from anyone. Know why? It's not an exploit. All the settings are built into forza. I just used a rubber band. Just like they didn't take away all the riches from people abusing the jeep willy super spins. Because they built it into the game. They just patched out the super spin and refunded your mastery points.

Sorry Karen I'm out here having fun playing forza too busy to care if someone else got rich by cheesing

[ProudKraut]

^Jimmys = rustled

[freeburn]

^Jimmys = rustled

It was to be expected, but it kinda sucks having a winter season with no snow. That little skiff on the mountain doesn’t count.

I think most people hated the snow in the last game. I much prefer this type of winter.

I did. ****ing tire sound in the snow drove me nuts. I didn't mind driving in it but the audio was awful.

Forza 5 is still everything that's wrong with racing games for me lately.

They try to make it all about "you" and not about the racing. It's so cringe.

Long gone are the days where you start with a 1992 Honda Civic and have to grind your way up to nice cars.

brb instantly in supercars racing against planes, motorcycles and guys in wing suits jfl.

[eod8989]

Forza 5 is insane. I already bought a Bugatti and own a few homes the map is so beautiful srs

Looks so good on my oled srs

you are back boyo. yea it's super good.

[eod8989]

It's one of those games you can just start up and have fun. No Bs. That's why i like Forza

I love forza 5, but I feel ya, be cool if the new gran turismo you start like that with nothing and have to work your way up

They said EOD was dead, yet he is posting.

[ScramFranklin]

Really cool digital foundry interview with some of the FH5 devs. always good to see devs excited over what they have built and the care they put into it.

if this is what they are able to render while going 200mph while also being cross gen, Fable is going to look really good.

probably Xbox's best studio, they have proved themselves 5x over now. If they nail Fable, a completely different type of game, it will cement that for me.

also, Jay on suicidewatch for how many times the devs say "diversity"

[freeburn]

Forza just had a pretty solid update, added a bunch of new cars. I haven't played it yet but looks good.

Should be alot of Cinco de mayo decorations in game since the setting is in Mexico

Contrarian levels intensifying.

Funny how when Sony has done stuff like this is made games bad, made it so people shouldn't buy the games, and was the reason for Sony "failing". So I guess Jay would say Forza is a bad game, didn't buy it, sold his Xbox and would now say Xbox is failing, right? I mean that force hiring trannies must have really caused him to take drastic action as a consumer I am sure?

gonna try it tonight. In the last two minutes of the interview, they talk about how they can make more drastic changes to the world in terms of holidays and such now. I think that's why Digital foundry held off on publishing this until now.

can't wait for the first big expansion as well. Will probably be shown June 12th at the xbox showcase.
