Ordinarily I don't like "easy X" blueprints, but since the Treasure Chest challenge requires you to run a specific game in a specific event, both of which are chance occurrences and not something you can just find and go do, I've created one just for the challenge.
Though I did it the RIGHT way myself first, and I'll be secretly disappointed in anyone who uses the Blueprint

In case anyone hasn't noticed, week 1 was C class, week 2 was B class, week 3 is A class, so week 4 will obviously be...
Let's see if we can guess the cars for next week on that basis...
Bugatti EB110 is the only French car that sits naturally at S1 and is the prize for The Trial.
For Japan we have the Nissan R390 which is Season event reward this week.
Germany should be a mix of Porsches.
There are too many options for Italy, UK and US though.

It happens all the time with every game. You feeling the need to race on track instead of streets is normal. I'm shifting from circuit to open world racers all the time. It's just that fixing your boredom is impossible for the devs, because it's your personal feel. And you are not alone too. Many have stopped playing the game. Take a brake. Wait for the expansion or come back in a year or two. The game will receive updates and it really won't go anywhere.

For me the problem with horizon games is progression, but even the motorsport games have bad progression in my opinion, i think gt has a much better progression, i have played most of the forza games and pretty much all of gt games, as far as updates go, forza motorsport should do even track updates, like gt did, cars is good and all but tracks needs yo be updated eventully in my point of view

I'll be sure to make a point of disliking the event if I play it... hopefully this'll help redress the balance.Upon logging in today, I find I am disappointed in 40 people
Edit: 50!
GT6 was okay. GT5 kinda stopped me dead with the need to grind for the right car for Like The Wind and then end up having to block the rabbit. FM5 introduced new tracks but everyone still hated that game. I'll see how far GT7 and GRiD Legends take me before returning to Horizon 5.

Unless there's a fortune teller who can predict what would Wolfe think about the game I can't see how would that happen. I know you from this forum and have no idea what you like, imagine those at PG. Besides we are so obsessed with the games being tailored to each individual that we don't care one bit about creators.
When they announced the Eliminator there was a huge uproar by a part of the community. It looked like nobody wants that, yet every single time I play that mode there are 40+ players in a game. Even if I get eliminated in the first minutes I can find another game in a minute with 40+ players. What I want to say is that the devs made a successful mode yet on the forums and other social media players are still complaining about it. Many wants that mode to be removed too.
And in the end look at most racing series. Tell me please which one is a success. FM7? PC3? ACC? Dirt5? GRID 2019? NFS Heat? The Crew2? Even GT7 is trying to please their fans focusing heavily on nostalgia.
You know how much easier was in the early 2000 when they had no worries about fans and could express their creativity without the fear of angry fans.

I proably won’t return to horizon 5 after gt7 come until 2023, i liked gt5 more than gt6, the things i like more in gran turismo is the progression, i also find the career mode more fun, i prefer gt way of doing it, licenses, drivning mission, but even the ordinary campaign races, races like ff,fr, mr, 4wd, na or turbo races is ton of fun, customization seems to be around the same level now, but i think gt7 might edge forza out a bit in customization part in gt7, forza has been stuck with the same forza wing since forza motorsport 4

Insanely expensive car prices stall the progression for me. One would also hope after a ten year wait since the last full instalment, they'd be able to bring some innovation to the table. Let's hope it extends to the AI programming.
Not sure what the differences between driving missions and challenge cards are either except that anyone can make a challenge card.

Car prices are are about the same as they are in horizon 5, i don’t like that horizon just give you cars to much, so i get no sense of progression, we have waited a long time for a full gran turismo but its more like 8 years and 3 months as gt6 released in december 2013, i offen get bored with open world racing games quickly, my preference is trackracing, i like what gt7 doing with career mode and progression begin with a slow car and upgrade tune and progress and buy a better car as you progress, i like horizon 5 in many ways, but i think its a bit bad they let you choise between 3 cars, and no matter witch one you choise you get all 3, not a good progression in my opinion fh1 progression was the best in the series by far for me, my other complaint for fh5 is the broken drivatar system, other than that its a great open world racing game, i really love that engine parts change the sound, and what you can do when you create routes

It's a bit unfair to expect a game developed on a two year cycle to compete on content grounds with one developed on a eight-year cycle. You're free to play GT if you want to but I personally would be stuck for things to do between instalments if I didn't play games from other franchises as well in the meantime.
Given that this is the case, this would appear to be the wrong subforum in which to voice concerns with Horizon as it's an open-world racing game.

I don't appreciate this, or especially someone acting like a jerk by labeling it a hot reply, because it's not complicated and doesn't require mind-reading. It's a common observation. I think the developers ought to review the basics -- better racing, better AI, a better currency/reward structure, fundamental things like that. The gameplay structure is divisive at best. It is no wonder that some people are bored with the game and with the franchise.
For some of us, FH5 is like playing a game with an incomplete set of cheat codes, seriously ruining the experience with excessive charity, constantly foisting out unwanted vehicles to delete/gift -- while denying access to favorites. For some of us, the game is a technical achievement with a commendable driving model that sold its soul to its corporate masters, trashing its accomplishments in the process.
If only the game was more conventional, I could have loved it. I played it for more than 90 hours and got my money's worth. After eight years, I gave PG a new chance. Lower-level employees knocked it out of the park! Cold, meddlesome, out-of-touch management 🤬 blew it.
Anyway, maybe it's about time to leave this subforum in peace.

My bad. I should have known what you mean. Unfortunately I still don't know what you want. Better this, better that does make enough clues for me to understand what you really want or expect.
Or better, I should leave this subforum in peace. Maybe I really should. The majority of people who complain are frustrated about things while I don't have this kind of problems. And even if it doesn't looks like, I really hate fighting on Internet in general.
We're good.
I just didn't understand why the question was so very personal, as if the developers couldn't help or change anything.By better racing, I mean better AI and more options like regular full-featured lobbies for online racing. Better AI means something more enjoyable than the Drivatars and the separate physics they use. The reward structure and progression, as mentioned above, was the real killer once I explored the map. I enjoyed the driving experience a lot, but the gameplay around it motivated me to quit playing.
If you have no complaints, I understand where you're coming from -- the game is a technical showcase with a strong driving experience and lots of content.

It's not that I have no complaints. It's just my opinion that just complaining usually only hurt the gameplay.
Like many complain about the AI having an unfair advantage due to rubberbanding or other cheats. And than finding out in the next game a weak AI (like in FH4) instead of a more advanced AI.
Or how trying to fix the ramming only hurt the Open racing. On paper it looked ok, but in reality it only hurt the whole experience. Specially the High speed collision ghosting thing.
Or how everyone got upset after nerfing the wheelspins. Players want better cars as rewards or more money and usually don't like to grind for anything. And that saddens me. I got all the cars within a month and I don't like it.
Or how players don't get the fact that FH4 got 160+ cars only because of the Playlist and removing that will only result in reduced car count in post launch free DLC.
This are just a few examples. My point still stands. Just complaining is not the right solution.
As for Open lobbies. I have no idea how much it cost to have additional servers just for that since the entire game already focus on Online (with dedicated servers) compared to PC, FM or GT. Maybe they could figure out something similar to Project Cars. I don't know, really.
