Forza Horizon 4: General Discussion

[BlazeTheCat05]

You mean those boards that say either 1000 or 2000 or 3000 on them?

Those are influence boards, which are what you need to level up your Global Ranking. Fast travel boards are light blue in color and read 'Fast Travel'.

And as much as I hate to say it, these boards could literally be hidden anywhere on the map. Unless you've purchased the treasure map, or looked up a walkthrough, you're going to have a heck of a hard time finding them.

 

[FT-1]

On the road while driving or on the map?

Both; Fast travel boards have a lightning bolt on the map icon and on the boards themselves. They are easy to distinguish from influence boards on the map which have an "i" symbol.

The fast travel boards look like the image posted above.

Weird I do not recall ever seeing these anywhere. These are ON THE road while you are driving, yes, NOT icons on the MAP itself, if so I will have to look closer. Now if these are MAP icons then no I have not noticed them before, or are you saying they are BOTH on the map itself and then while you drive you can see them on the road also?

I see you are saying to buy the treasure map, I guess I will. THanks.

These boards do not appear on the map until you're really close to them. If I can suggest one thing before buying the treasure map, pause your game and select 'drone mode'. Any board that you fly over with the Drone will be revealed on your map permanently. The same goes for any barn finds that you may have trouble looking for; flying close to the barn will show it on the map.

Thanks...

I use a wheel, to fly the drone I have to use the hand controller. I am not very good with the drone even then, dont recall what my issues were but couldnt get high enough maybe.

The Drone has a height limit, I believe it's roughly 30 feet off the ground.

They finally gave us a two-tone rim!
And 22 brands, 41 new rims!

 

[Silver Arrows]

That Horizon Racing Cup and the payouts are looking mighty fine.

Weirdly, the Buick GNX and two recent car pass Hoonigans have 16 mastery bonuses like a legendary or FE, but are rare and common. The Buick has two spins (one requiring only 2 skill points), 10k skills and 100k credits.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

I'm really liking what I'm seeing with those new rims!

 

[EngieDiesel]

When they say the advanced paint options are being to "a number of cars", I'm presuming they mean just the newest cars that have lots of complex aero parts that are too fiddly to paint with normal means.

Probably just cars that have secondary colors like the McLaren Senna and hopefully the various muscle cars with stripes on them.

 

[Techlet]

Nice. I hope the "advanced painting options" will spread to all cars because it'll be a little strange to be able to paint multi-part rims on one car but not the same rims on another.

I also hope this update increases the paint save limit, otherwise the painting options will be next to useless.

When's that coming out?

Very nice. Good to see them continue to add more stuff to do before the first expansion next month.

Even so, I will welcome it.
2017 Ford GT is my beloved car, but this car was a very difficult to paint.

The guy announcing it started to say it'll be there for every car but caught himself and said he doesn't want to say *every* car but the majority of them. Not perfect but still sounds hopeful.

When's that coming out?

They said the third week of this month, so if they mean the "third occurence of a week" that'd be Tuesday the 13th. I'm guessing they mean the third full week so probably Tuesday the 20th.

Can’t wait for the multi color rims.

 

[Kitten]

Oooh, found these upcoming fixes;

• Fixes for various connectivity issues, including dead sessions (I’ve had multiple instances when there’s been less than 20 people in my game. For reference, servers have a 72-player capacity).
• The post-race cutscenes can now be skipped.
• Ability to Add All DLC cars to Garage in one go.
• Improvements to Photo Mode (namely, cars will only be ghosted if they are inside each other).
• Fix for the Barn Find Achievement (I didn’t have this problem, but I know lots of players who have been unable to unlock the Achievement due to a bug).
• Improved Car Resets in Team Adventure – there are no wider improvements to the Team Adventure modes, but the issues have been noted and the team are investigating ways to make the mode more enjoyable.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Still waiting on the ability to remove your driver in photo mode.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Some good fixes.

Have they said anything about actually being able to turn music completely off without having to turn on Streamer Mode? And if not, are they going to make it so that Streamer Mode doesn't turn off every time you turn on the game?

 

[randys]

Got the mansion but to use fast travel you have to pay 8200 credits, right?

Yes, but smashing the fast travel boards that are scattered around the map will take 200cr out of that total everytime you hit one. Some are fairly easy to find, some are hidden, but they're all purple. There's 2 types of boards though, ones that give you XP (err, influence) and ones for fast traveling.

Best news heard from Forza ever. 41 new rims and the ability paint different sections. Pretty shocked at that one. What they need is car people to push them to add car related content. This is how the game will improve. Not those dumb characters that bring nothing to the game but to actually made it worse.

Their existing wheels could have worked too. Reasons why the wheels we currently have is meh because the limited offsets and sizes and color options. Getting good fitment would make a ton of these bland and ugly wheels more attractive. I hope they would add spacers for many of the cars that need them. Makes you wonder why they avoided spacers for certain cars. Anyways this is heading to the right direction. Thanks Forza, we want stuff like rims and not things like being pushed to wear women's clothing.

So it seems it's possible to set class limits for Custom Route races. All you have to do is while you're making the event in the blueprint menu, set the class restriction, then change from the normal race route to your custom route, and the class restriction'll still be in effect.

The fact they quote 41 wheels from 22 brands makes me happy, that means it won't only be fifteen52 and Rotiform that gets new content. I hope we'll have a few vintage style wheels and a refresh of some brands (BBS, Enkei, Work, Volk etc) whose ingame "catalog" is extremely out of date.

I’m hoping for more DUB ish rims. But I doubt more will come.

Hoping Fikse, they post Forza pics of cars with their wheels and ask people to post their pics. They replied to a few which wheels people would like to see in game. I replied with a few not in Game and asked if they could get more finishes in game. Would love to see how black anodized FM10’s with polished lips would look on a few cars.
