So the winter exclusive car is community choice? I hope one of the options is the Hot Wheels Rip Rod. That was my favorite of the Hot Wheels cars from FH3. I would drive the hell out it.

None of the cars in this month's car pass really stand out to me.
I'm liking the car pass cars. There's a bit too much Hoonigan going on, but the Lamborghini, Vauxhalls, and Stelvio more than make up for it.

The Forzathon cars though... big fat meh. Hopefully the community choice options aren't Hot Wheels, but I doubt it.
 
"Increased quality of grass and tree procedurals at distance when Procedural Quality setting is set to Extreme."

So medium, high and ultra are not going to change tree and grass lods :confused: They surely can't just leave those and only change the extreme settings :dunce:

So the extreme preset changes "TreesLODDistanceScale="1.00000 > 1.250000", GrassLODDistanceScale="1.000000 > 2.000000", BushLODDistanceScale="1.000000 > 1.500000" and Crowdcull to 0, very extreme.

Low, medium, high and ultra all use these values for the same settings LODDistanceScale="1.000000" TreesLODDistanceScale="1.000000" GrassLODDistanceScale="1.000000" BushLODDistanceScale="1.000000". You'd think these would change between presets no ?

My solution for the people that want to would be to let us change the values in the config file then set it to read-only and boom no complaints (possibly) :D
 
Sema car from last year.

That's a pretty sad addition. Reminds me of that custom Challenger that was added to FM4 back in the day.
Or those three or so C6 Corvettes in FM3 that had hideous bodywork installed by Italian design houses nobody remembers anymore.

To add a couple observations on the route creator:

- You have to start your custom route in the same direction as the race you're using the start point from, which is a bit limiting if you're making a circuit race. That's only a minor thing though.

- The AI simply does not understand 90 degree turns with downhill braking zones. If you want to make an easy win race, toss a couple of those in with the checkpoint after the turn and they'll torpedo right past trying to slow down for it.
 
I will be pleased Mustang.
At least it's more attractive to me than Gallardo Convertible. (Return from FH1. It was not fresh car for me)
However, I don't dislike Gallardo, so I'm satisfied with this car pack. Especially the VX220 is the best. I have been waiting for the day Elise sister will return.

It is advice of British Racing Green challenge.
  • Almost all time trials are based on the course shortcuts. More than LaRacer's challenge.
  • With the Peel P50 challenge you need to turn right from the starting point and accelerate from there.
  • Bentley challenge has no shortcuts. Proper acceleration and shift operations are required.
  • The prize Bentley can be purchased at the auto show. If you don't need this car, you don't have to achieve 3 stars.
 
Week one is a tad disappointing seeing that those are reworked versions of existing cars. Week 3 looks promising, hoping the Stelvio comes with the Off-Road kit. Also, the Can-AM looks far better than any other buggy in the game and is perfectly suited to the hilly nature of Horizon UK.
 
I did a rival race, now gas makes me go backwards. everything is messed up now...very frustrating.

The wheel gas pedal makes me go reverse, when I go back to the controller the button that makes me go forward usually makes me go backwards now

Somehow now back to normal but I dont dare race rivals again.
 
Anyobody on the US West Coast not get the update? Currently refreshing the Horizon 4 tab on the Xbox with no update to be found.

Edit: East Coast, I meant. :boggled:

Edit 2: Nevermind. Hard restart an the Xbone made it appear.

...proof?
What? I went into the dirt rivals section of the menu, raced in a car against motorcycles, changed the settings on the difficulty to a couple of things but never went near the layout settings and when I was done with the race this happened to the car I was in prior to the rvilas. Turned everything off and back on and then the car wouldnt go forward, it would lunge a couple of feet, stop then do it again for a while. Reset it AGAIN then seems to be back to normal now.
