Forza Horizon 4: General Discussion

[-Fred-]

I have the majority of these vehicles (I have all but just under 90 or so cars in the game) but the Transit FE was the only eligible one I could use from my garage and the Merc racing truck was the only one available to purchase for some reason.

The race truck is the only "native" B class car in that list, which is why it's the only one you're able to purchase. If you upgrade any of the others to B class you should be able to use them.

Ah ok thanks everyone as I posted earlier I managed it in the Transit FE anyway luckily.

 

[HyperSpeeder]

Dear PG, please stop using S2 class for the Trial, thank you.

B-But we want you to work for your cars! We don't just gift cars to people.

Playlist took me 1h30min for offline events. In the end I could only enjoy the Divo two days after it became available, since I was too tired for anything before that.

In the end, the Divo does not get to S2998 without aero upgrades, which I consider stupid since the Chiron can be lightened further than the Divo. Surely the UNSC could supply the Festival with technology to lower that weight even further. The splitter doesn't hurt the looks of the car too much but I could do without the tow hook. No point in replacing the active wing with the grocery store one, though.

The community routes seem very nice this month, I hope there's some good CC ones if they decide to implement those. Sadly they used a really crappy division to showcase these routes (yet another example of "we want you to like our vision no matter what" considering they change the creators' conditions at will), so I just used my Isetta with a bike engine, spent more time sideways than straight, and defeated all the big bruisers.

The race truck is the only "native" B class car in that list, which is why it's the only one you're able to purchase. If you upgrade any of the others to B class you should be able to use them.

My suggestion? Chevy El Camino or Golf Mk2.

Had a blast in the community championship, weapon of choice was the Porsche 550 Spyder, of course done up in James Dean livery.

For David vs Goliath, I had a Sprite built up to B700 already, so I used that and won all three races. It was only mildly tuned. Still FR, no engine swap, running retro race tires. It was easy to drive and a lot of fun.

Speaking of, did they ever fix the Sprite's engine sound? Or is it still using that Inline-6 sound?

I don't think so, that's why I swapped mine in the first place. They haven't touched the sounds in a year.

If you tell me it sounds like an inline-6 then I'll believe you. Engine sounds have never been particularly important to me. Doesn't sound like an Italian V12, American V8, air-cooled VW, Porsche Flat-6, or a chainsaw? Close enough.

It takes a Bimmer to earn a Bimmer and the M4 (S850 tune, stock tires (!)) was spectacular in the Power Struggle championship.

That Peel etc Event was fun!

I used my upgraded (still D100) Peel P50 and lapped everyone except the Reliants on two of the races! Comfortably faster than the rest of the field. Easiest event ever. Had to be a little cautious on the corners due to the non-aero setup.

I subsequently tried a full aero setup (D100) which boosted handling to 10, which goes with a 10 on Launch and Accelleration.

I uploaded my original setup with a description of “Super Peel for Playlist”. I also uploaded the Aero version as “Super Peel with Aero”

P50 is just about the only car I trust myself to run on unbeatable with rewind off. When you are a lap ahead of the field it doesn't matter whether you drive into a ditch. Wish I'd remembered to select manual gears as well for more bonuses.

Those developer courses had some crazy twists and turns.

It makes no sense that they didn't carry over the option to sell duplicate cars that you win in wheelspins from Horizon 3. I have over a hundred wheelspins that I want to use to either get more rare cars or money. However it would then be a chore because then the 750 car limit will be reached too often and then I would have to remove some cars manually in order to keep doing more wheelspins. So inconvenient

Has anyone noticed that this feature appears to have made a comeback with the latest update? Wish I could get rid of all the duplicates I built up before PG got their act together though.

Morgan 3 Wheeler with AWD is alot more controllable then I thought it would be, keeping the stock power is more then enough thanks to it's light weight so I just focused on handling.

Ferrari 488 Pista
Ferrari Portofino
ATS - may be new or classic, but it's an italian brand called Automobili Turismo e Sport.
Lamborghini Huracan Performante

Could this be the killer update?

hope ur right about the ferraris and lamborghini. u think that ats could be referring to the 2019 Cadillac ATS?

 

[-Fred-]

Judging from this twitter post from yesterday, I'd be more inclined to think we're going to get the Evo and not the Performante.


Also, going by the little forbidden signs underneath the Fer/Fer/Lam/ATS thingies, I believe they will ban the Bone Shaker and Track-Tor from online play.

No, because they seem to be aiming for an Italian theme this update. Like they did the Porsche centered update.

Also, they're the beginning of brand names. 'Cadillac' doesn't start with 'ats'.

Ur right. I looked up ats and there was a Italian company that was called ats found a car i wont mind driving in forza. Its a 1925 ats aurea

 

[Populuxe]

I doubt we're going to see cars from the 1920s. I'm thinking it's the Automobili Turismo e Sport company that @warp9engage suggested. They go back to the 1960s. And while I would love to get a 1960s ATS 2500 GT:


I'm almost certain we're going to get the 2017 ATS GT:

Plus the ATS-V Coupe is already in the game.

 

[Justuxful]

If they actually add the Huracan Evo and not the Huracan Performante it’s gonna be such a troll move from PG, I expect riots from the community

I’d prefer the Performante, though I’d love the Evo as well, but the former is literally the current most requested car, and the latter doesn’t even make the top 30 most requested cars

 

[TokoTurismo]

If it means pissing off the fanbase for fun, I say go right ahead PG. I will take the EVO over the Performante any day of the week, but if I was to be honest, I'd take both cars to add to my collection. I mean, I hardly see anybody driving the 600LT and Divo, two of which were the most requested cars in FH4...

The same thing is going to happen to the Performante too if it was added: Obtain car from a championship/trial/playground, drive it for a few minutes, than leave said car to collect digital dust in garage, go right back to driving other cars you've currently built. It's gonna happen with these new cars too, mark my words.

I will for sure be driving them once I've earned them. But because how much cars I have in my garage, it can sometimes overwhelm me from driving them all the time. But when I need to showoff though...

Yep. You see all these complaints because X or Y car isn't in game, and yet everyone you come across is driving a Liberty Walk GT-R with Monster stickers all over it.

My sentiments excatly! 👍

 

[drouid2]

If one of those ferrari's an older model then i wont mind seeing a 2004 575GTC.

its a racing version of the 575m.

 

[Nacho Libre]

If one of those ferraris an older model then i wont mimd seeing a 2004 575m. To me it was a nice car for its time.

They even made a racing version of it.

That would be awesome!

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Just add more garage space then I don’t care what comes in the next update. I’m almost out of duplicate cars to sell.

 

[Populuxe]

I would love for one of those Ferraris to be the 612 Scaglietti. I love those big FR GTs.

 

[CarGuru]

Yeah totally...

*removes monster stickers and liberty walk kit from GTR*

 

[53Nicolas]

Maybe the "soon" refers to the all new Ferrari Roma, even though it would be really weird not to have 488 pista and Portofino before it.
