Forza Horizon 4: General Discussion

[breyzipp]

I didn’t take the time yet to top off everything apart from speed traps and danger signs, they are the easiest. But a lot of drift zone + speed zone I got 3 stars just from doing Forzathon Live.

I’ve had a thought for quite some time, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if many of members of the sound department (And from the Dev team in general) at PG and T10 aren’t ‘car guys’. For them it could be just another job, and they might not have the passion for cars, so they might not care exactly about the details.

I’d like to think that developers working on this game would have an interest, but I’m sure there’s only so many people working in the video game sound industry for them to chose from.

Personally, I chafe a little at the idea of assuming anyone working on these games doesn't have a passion for what they are doing. On any game, really.

There are myriad possibilities for why some of the cars don't sound right, that have nothing to do with the studio or the people who work for it just not "caring" enough, or not being "car people".

Anyone else not getting the speed trap and speedzone forzathon objectives no matter what? I've did the speedzones with a speed worth 3 stars, Never gets completed! Been like that since Horizon 3...

 

[CSLACR]

...Has anyone noticed that you aren't actually playing in your region on Horizon Life?



Welp, this is probably why I never seem to stay in the same server after finishing an event...

If I had to hazard a guess, it probably tries to put you in the least populated server that you have a reasonable ping time for, for load balancing purposes.

You'd probably be getting a lot more of those messages if you were region restricted to North America.

It shows the ping time so there's that, but I also wonder if the region is that of the server itself?

Are you sure you are doing the speed zones where you have to go between 2 points with a certain speed and not the speed cameras?

The seasonal co-op championship with the Aston actually works fine and pays out for once.

Shame can't go back and get the rewards from the others now that they work.

 

[DustDriver]

What do you get if you actually win?
Lost both times I tried it, but still got the skeleton suit.

 

[MistaX]

Haunted House Horn

It was easy to win with most of my team having stock ones, mine being S1 900, and other guy bringing S2 950~

Only one AI was S2.

Any ideas why when I try to get the two Hoonigan cars it still says ‘release date 2/11/18’ ?

 

[Maxrevv]

Out of all the stuff I'm afraid that would screw up my skill combo is not rocks, walls or traffic.

Its these little things.

 

[DustDriver]

I really hate the random traffic when doing high speed missions.
I think 'rewind' is the worst feature to come to racing games, so that was the first thing I turned off. But today I was almost tempted to turn it back on...

 

[Clark]

I felt like that with the long final Cross Country race, so many jumps meaning you can bounce wide and miss the checkpoint by inches which screws you over completely.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Oh, I'll use the rewind feature with pleasure when it comes to long races if it means I avoid having a missed checkpoint screw me over in a race.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Completed all the big races, and all the other ones. Just need to do the seasonal events. Is there a cut scene for completing everything?

Nope, not even any dialogue for acknowledging so.

Yep. Doing that between the two cameras, never counts no matter what.

Spent a lot of time that one. Had an extra 60 skillpoints by the time I finally won it

Not sure, i had to buy them for £2.49 each, do you have the car pass or anything.

 

[Clark]

I’ve got them now, I have the car pass but it wouldn’t let me get them from the DLC cars edition, I had to get them via the autoshow.

 

[MistaX]

I have nothing left to do. Finished all the races, all the boards, 3 stars on everything, all the achievements.
I don't have all the cars and I still have the 15M CR castle left to buy, but it feels so dull and grindy now.

If only multiplayer didn't suck.

With some luck, perhaps the big November update in a couple of weeks will expand the multiplayer offerings. That's my hope.

Kinda feeling the same here. If the course creator wasn't so unnecessarily limited, that would offer a massive incentive to continue making circuits (and thus getting credits), but with it, there's really so much you can take of it before you're just making tracks for money farming.

I’ve completed everything too so now I’m working on unlocking the perks on all of my cars and then racing some of them. It gets me a good flow of influence and money and it’s a lot less tedious and more fun than grinding Goliath for the same thing. Currently have almost 30 million credits from doing this. It’ll be enough to keep me busy until the first expansion next month.

I still haven’t bought Edinburgh Castle yet either but I’m waiting until there’s absolutely nothing left to spend money on first.

So I have all 15 barnfinds but the achievement is still locked for me and it says I'm 86% completed on it. According to the Xbox app .65% of players have it must not be broken for everyone.
Is there some way to force the achievement to trigger? I've had all 15 barnfinds for like 2 weeks now.

It unlocked successfully for me, so I guess I'm in that 0.65%, but the achievement appears to be bugged right now for a lot of people. Not heard of any way to force the issue.

Unfortunately, the only way to get this achievement if it’s bugged for you is to start over from the beginning and collect the barn finds again. And even then, it’s still not guaranteed to work as I’ve heard of a few people who have done this and still haven’t gotten it. Not worth it IMO. The devs are aware of the issue though and are working on a fix.

But from what I’ve gathered, what’s most likely causing this achievement to not unlock is by having two or more barn finds in the process of being repaired at the same time.

PJ, my dude, I mean no disrespect when I say the following, but how come you post your liveries in three different threads? Is it so you can achieve the maximum downloads possible? Please don't feel like I'm attacking you or anything. I mean, why would I? You're probably one of the most well-respected people within the community. It's just been something I've been wondering recently.
