Note: I might do a more difficult playthrough later on for fun where I try to beat the game without any wheelspins. Maybe I'll do that when I get a Series X.

Are you sure that's possible? Because the wheelspins automatically run if you level up right after a race during podium scenes, unless you can skip by them I suppose.

Well, I'm going to at least try and see if I can avoid all of them. Otherwise, I'll just say it's a "reduced wheelspin" run then where I only take ones given to me in events.

Welp, my first Goliath run with a DJS tuned Bugatti Divo and the A.I. kicked my butt. I suuuuuck at this track, even with rewinds on; I only could get 3rd. These blasted Ferrari FXX Ks somehow were able to get turns that my Divo couldn't. I got steaming mad when I got to the end.

Also, it ended up shorter than I expected. I finished in just over 11 in-game minutes. I swear I remember taking that long with hypercars when doing Australia's Goliath in FH3.

Has anyone had to do a seasonal championship twice in order to unlock the cars? (Hyundai Veloster N and the Hoonicorn V2). For some reason they don't unlock the first time and the second time they usually unlock. Is there anyway to fix this?
 
got the hoonigan rauh-welt 911 turbo. got a pretty silly conversion option for its engine if u ask me. two engine swaps both 4.0L same hp, torque, and displacement only difference is the weight and rpm. engines r both from 911s a 2012 911 and the 2016 model. u will think they will add a different engine that are not very similar to each other...

Oh bliss! After 3 attempts with the Divo, I finally did it. I know I could've won on my first try probably with a lower difficulty setting and lower performance class than just using a S2 hypercar, but where would the fun be in that?

Then again, I say that, but I was swearing at the game about how fast those AI Ferrari FXXs were plus the Huayra FE thing and apparently one drivatar had a modified Ariel Atom V8.

and the game even gave me a great wheelspin prize for all my troubles. I also got another Dodge Charger R/T & an Auto Union GP car aswell.

Also, the Huayra FE thing I mentioned, I took a picture in free roam. It reminds me more of the Zonda R than the new Huayra R that I apparently didn't know was a thing until I looked it up just now. I wonder if this means we'll see a Huayra R later on as DLC or something.

Series 1 Season 1 Walkthrough by me. Still far from perfect, but much better than Season 0 video ;)

Hey, this is great 👌👏
Must have taken some time to put together. I hope more people take a look and subscribe 👍
 
I got the Pagani Huayra BC Forza Edition on the first day of playing the game.

Also, while I am enjoying the game, I only experienced just one game crash, and the XBOX servers where I live has been horrendous for the past two days.
 
The game has become unplayable to me. It’s crashing constantly now. So I decided to play some Wreckfest instead. I tried to fire it up but got a pop up saying the file appears corrupt. I need to uninstall and reinstall. So I’m doing that. I wonder if I should do the same with FH5?

I had XBOX Live server problems for the past couple of days.

Me: Okay, I think I'll save up that last million credits and finally buy the hotel-castle thing.

Me, 1 hour later: Oh geez I just spent 250,000 credits upgrading and tuning unwanted cars to send out as gifts, how did this happen

This is why I bought all the houses first and now I have 5m to do whatever I like with.
 
I did the Gaunlet in the Bronco and it took me 24 minutes. Going up the mountain road was a pain the arse because the Bronco hates tight, twisty tarmac roads. It really was a test for me, as I've never driven more than 15 minutes at a time in any game on this computer. I don't sit in my typical position; I sit at a desk to play the game which makes things a little harder. But that's not a big deal. The Bronco is my favourite car because it looks tough and goes anywhere without tipping over all the time. It's soo well tuned for off-roading that I've used it for pretty much all the Baja and Wilds events except 2, where I used the Focus RS RX. I love it.

Anyone have the game crash and when they reloaded it reverted back a whole day?

I had the game crash while finding the next barn find and for some reason the game resorted to everything I did from the day before. Lost about 10+ cars and a million credits and everything I unlocked for the whole day gone. Found it weird because I would have assumed the game would have saved more often than that?!

That happened to me a few days ago. It was late, the game crashed, so I just shut it off for the night. When I started it up the next day, I had to redo everything from the previous night.
 
Im on PC and im only getting the crashes after a long time play session. Its a well known memory leak issue apparently. Hopefully will get fixed in the patch. Its not too bad though as it only happens after a good few hours. Also hope they fix the crashes when looking at the body kits and widebodys too. Which has crashed me a couple of times.
 
Is the daily challenge ‘crowd-pleaser’ also not updating for anyone else? I completed the showcase event vs the jet skis and also On a Wing and a Prayer. I won both (which isn’t even required) but no progress. :(

Not working for me either, I'm also having problems with the cactus one as I know I've destroyed well over 100 by now.

Mine updated in the first event I did, but I have several instances of small annoying things. Like danger signs saying I needed one more foot to go, when I beat the required distance easily. Most of these are just minor inconveniences to me.

One of my biggest things I wish they would fix is in Rivals. When I beat a rival and finish the event, it asks me if I want to face the next rival, and it’s the same one I just beat. That annoys me a bunch.

Also, I don’t see any way to see the leaderboard after finishing a rivals event, unless I’m missing something then that’s really terrible.

Game is starting to freeze + crash more frequently for me. Also experiencing a glitch i Horizon Open where someone's car was spawning at some arbitrary point on the track, and the player was winning/completing races as if he had nothing weird going on.
 
Not seeing anything in relation too vibrations not working on wheel when revving car etc like fh4 had in the big list of known issues? don't say it was meant to be like that?

Why, people, why?

It's just a stock car sold 132,000 at the autoshow o_O

And that not just one player.



You'd better have your "manivelle" with if you look for one of the many 4L that are probably hidden in french barns. This backup starter was common on similar french cars, i think.

I had the exact same thing when I sold my GTR, and some idiot on the auction house bought it out for 280k when I bought it from the autoshow
 
I finally fixed my network issue! Turns out it was NI LabView services causing some sort of problem. Funny thing is I found the solution purely by chance, browsing r/forza by new and noticing someone with a similar issue. Someone linked them to another post that was posted last week, one that I'd commented on, that had been updated with a solution and it just so happened that I also had NI software installed on my PC (about a decade ago!), mad coincidence.

So now I'm one point shy of the Aston Martin prize car and have accidentally stayed up past 4am playing online with real people, most of that was just doing drift runs up and down the volcano. I did one PvP (finished 2nd) and one PvE (won) tournament and tried two Horizon Arcades (definite connection issues there, players kept disappearing), also noticed my performance is significantly worse online than off with frequent stuttering. I'm hoping that'll be patched up in time.
 
So I just got a black screen after taking a pic of a Cadilac CTS-V,can't say I blame it really..:lol: but in all seriousness has this happened to anyone else?

Edit: I exited the game and it's not working at all now.

Edit2: All is well,restarted the pc,was a bit worried when the pc crashed during it's restart process but yeah,lost nothing in the end,very relieved right here.
