There are people here who are struggling too I'm sure, why not try to organize some people to give it a try together? At least then they wouldn't be ramming you off the road while spamming their stupid horns.
There's also the "Looking For Group" feature thing on Xbox, could browse those and look for one about the Trial.
The Unbeatable AI is pretty awful though. It reminds me of the terrible game design for missions in GTA Online where they just infinite spawn bad guys to chase you or artificially boost the accuracy of certain NPCs just to add difficulty. There's good challenging and ******** challenging, and I guess some devs can't tell the difference.
The AI in general are a problem, sometimes they are way too easy, and when they go up in difficulty they often feel unfair as they don't drive better but instead just get cheaty performance boosts. Regardless of the difficulty, they just aren't fun to race with most of the time... But that's hardly a problem exclusive to Horizon, as racing AI just hasn't progressed much lately.
Ugh, I really find the Festival Playlist so played out at this point. I have absolutely no intention to get 25 points most weeks, let alone 45 this week for the Celica.
I think the formula has just aged like milk after 5 goes around.
Same... I turned it on yesterday to get the 575M but couldn't be bothered to do anything else to get the Trident, and I didn't care about the Lamborghini convertible thing because I'm pretty sure I already have one that has its roof and is therefore much better.
It's funny, I was enjoying the hell out of this game for a bit and just kinda fell off a cliff, now I'm to the point where I barely turn it on... I guess it's a "me problem" though because when I turn the game on and see some reward car that is kinda cool, I feel obligated to try to get it instead of just ignore it and play stuff that is actually fun.
I suggested somewhere earlier in this thread that they need to add a more freeform way to earn the festival point things (I forget what they are called at the moment) to get the exclusive cars. Make the playlist the fastest way to earn them, but also just reward us for playing the game in general, instead of forcing us into generic "break X item Y number of times" or "drive your sports car in rally races against dumb AI that you won't see 30 seconds after the start of the race" or "earn 12 stars doing the same jump you have done 1,000 times before
BUT THIS TIME YOU HAVE TO BE IN AN S-CLASS MUSTANG!"
Some of the new rules you can use in EventLab seem like they could inject some creativity, but it's too hard sorting through the mountains of garbage (that are always there in every game with user-made content) to find cool ones though, and even if you do find them you won't earn exclusive cars from playing them anyways. Unfortunately the devs don't really seem that interested in actually making good content themselves and would rather just wait for others to do it... Like the Ford Focus thing from last week, a cute idea that ended up being tedious, but at least it was more creative than the "OMGZORZ DRIVE YOUR REALLY BIG TRUCK THROUGH SOME BOWLING PINS AND ROBOT PINATAS THEN TAKE A JUMP" garbage from before.
Oh well, as long as people are content doing this copy and paste stuff and they have however many million players, then I guess this is what we get.
