Forza Horizon 5: General Discussion

[Turboteg90]

Gentleman, it’s been a privilege waiting for the expansion with you tonight.

Or as I said earlier, maybe they were only given one car to scan and so they had to use the same livery on that model. It's not necessarily laziness, but rather what resources they had access to at the time.

Probably the case I guess. Although it is a bit of a shame when the one detail that's different out of all of the teams and its not included.


Me at my PC waiting for 6.00PM

You're looking the wrong way.

Me too.

 

[ALLSETFORMOVE]

I envy people in the US and Europe a little.
Here the expansions are released at 2 am. Will I be able to stay awake?

Where you at pal? It will be 1am here in China for me.

 

[TokoTurismo]

Dang it! This wait is killing me.

 

[L8 Apex]

T-minus 10 minutes!

Just a reminder that if you follow the official stream on Twitch (aka.ms/twitchforza) there will be exclusive prizes.

For quick reference, it's roughly overhead at polytunnels. Though I couldn't actually see it up there on the preview build, that's what you can see looking down from the Nexus...

Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels Expansion Preview: Five-Mile High Club

The first expansion for Forza Horizon 5, Hot Wheels, is now available to play for those of you who bought the pack or have it included in the Premium Edition of the title. Featuring 120 miles of the classic orange track (as well as some blue; more on that later), the expansion adds a unique map

My Xbox has just decided I need a 11gb update before I can play the DLC. Bloody tech

 

[-Fred-]

Socks and sandals is a big no-no, Charlie...

 

[Terronium-12]

Inconvenient launch update is inconvenient.

Same here.

 

[L8 Apex]

Update not even showing up on Steam...

Edit: You have to restart Steam.

 

[TokoTurismo]

Now updating FH5! It's a 11.6gb update too.

Edit: Haha lol I've been tricked. Now it's updating the hot wheels expension.

Any idea what they are? I'm tuned it, but not watching because I want to experience it for myself, lol

 

[Famine]

Lol, they just revealed the fourth dragon that I mentioned in our preview

Double lol: Mike just referred to the Park as being a bit like the MCU

So far the first prize is going to be the expansion itself. That’s the only thing announced so far.

 

[Terronium-12]

Could you install the HW pack before now, or is that another launch day inconvenience being inconvenient?

 

[ShawnPhillips]

Same. Even limited the stream to 160P so it isn't using up precious bandwidth for downloading the Update and Expansion.

 

[Edax 76]

Nearly there. South Oxfordshire internet speeds for the rural population are terrible 😂😂😂

Edit. It's doing a bloody 12.22gb update now. Not fun, I'm off to find the gin.

 

[Famine]

If anyone wants to see the full map with all locations (and collectibles) on it, I've put a rough cut together - I was going to make a nice one for the article but it's a bit spoilery...

... so you'll need to click to unblur

 

[RYAN]

The time has come, All installed and ready to go and Its so hot and uncomfortable to play that I might just leave it until tomorrow. 😰

Go on bud you know you want to give it a quick spin .....

 

[TokoTurismo]

What!? There's progression? In Horizon?

 

[Populuxe]

First a 12gb download for the expansion, and now a 12gb download for the base game. You couldn’t do some of this ahead of time, PG?

 

[SU_Tempest]

I was about to ask how you got only 12 GB in your updates when Steam is currently busy downloading 25.1 GB on my end. The wait for me is very long. My net's top speed is 2 MB/second.
