Nice pull from a wheel spin the 3000 HP Nissan drag car

 

[amigastar]

Is this game designed to be played with a controller? I assume so, right?

Yeah it plays great with a controller

I have had nothing but terrible luck with wheel spins.

When I wanted cars, it would give me shitty 5000, 10000 drops.

Now that I want to accumulate money to buy that 3 million house in Tokyo, I'm getting all the 90's and 2000's Nissan's and Mazdas.

Exactly the same.
I got 2 FE quickly but other than that, only green rewards. Even with Super Wheelspins which are supposed to have higher rates. lol.

The Tokyo house is free with the premium content

 

[LordCBH]

I found a slightly older version of the car I drive irl in the game! Hello my beautiful Mazdaspeed3 in dark blue.

That's the one i'm still missing

Its fast in a straight line, doesn't turn worth a shit but its fast

I'll play the game later this weekend. Can anyone check the current world rankings for the most popular event? Just to get an idea of how many people are playing the game.

 

[adamsapple]

Unlocked the Legend Island and all the Gauntlet races.

 

[twilo99]

or steam deck

Anything that can run a chromium based browser should suffice.

a Linux PS5 should work quite well.

Sony not allowing web browsing on the PlayStation makes zero sense at this point

Nice divebombs from the AI!

Still absolutely love this car. Lancer evo 2001 was my go to once upon a time. Downloaded community tuning and it drives so well.

Slingshotting off of other cars on turns is actually my preferred way to gain the lead too, lol

What exact tuning?
I went with the newer Evo from a Premium car Pass.

That think drives solid, too

 

[Power Pro]

Omg, I wish I had a car that looked like this

Seasons changing to Summer

I hope adding more map filter options is a part of their routine updates. They need to add the option to let people hide any events we've done all 3 stars in while keeping the rest visible.

Agreed. The map is full of things and it's overwhelming. I would like things that I've done to be gone from the map period

 

[LordCBH]

I wish the gacha city radio station had more songs. It's my favorite one and it feels like it's just cycling 5 or 6 songs.

 

[SupremeJ]

IGN 10/10 title IS frenetic. LOL

 

[AJUMP23]

Would anyone know why my son who is in my family and his Xbox is set as the home Xbox cannot play online in this game? Xbox says he should be able to use my Gamepass ultimate subscription to play online but it will not allow him to wants him to buy a subscription.

Nobody know how to help this guy. He seems like a pretty fun member with a cool son that wants to roam online with him.

You can to a degree, if you turn off all markers and then add in what you want to see.

Like only the Recommended events, or only Seasonal markers. Not quite the same but it helps.

Looks like the game's been received fairly well in Japan as well.

 

[Miles708]

I can't find a definite answer:
Does the game require an online connection at all times to play in single?

Also, is there a mandatory update to start playing?

This one:

Find tunings and then look for this username.

Honda NSX R GT is the best car in the game so far.

At least via steam offline play should be possible: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2483190/discussions/0/686369700106591599/

If there's a similar thing to Playstation's system, I think the main account that owns gamepass needs to be signed in on his console and then made as home xbox. After that he can sign in with his account and have access to your games.

ya all that has been done.

I finally found some answers. people say it is a bug and I can maybe click through and get it to work. Or do a factory reset that saves games and apps if all else fails.

I have the console version Game Pass so my experience might be different to others but here's the results from my testing:

- I had to download the game (ofc) but even those who have the disc will probably need to download data. Xbox uses 50GB discs and PS5 uses 100GB discs, the game's install size was 135GB.
- With the system set to offline, I am still able to play the Game Pass version (likely it's a 7 day check iirc), the only caveat that the game told me my progress cannot be saved to cloud and will only be saved locally.

I found it frustrating I couldn't play it off the external hard-drive I brought, so reluctantly had to delete some games to make way, I've still got Horizon 5 installed, but outside of the Rally DLC there wasn't much to it, and the Hotwheels addition wasn't all that either..so I am not sure if I should still keep it on there now that 6 is alive and kicking

 

[Idleyes]

Eh? The load times are pretty short in my experience so far. The only time I had longer times was the eve of the launch day when the servers were probably getting hammered.

Maybe it's my internet then. 1000/down 45/up fake ass Gigabit internet.

You could've moved those games you weren't playing to the external HDD (assuming you had the space) and then downloaded FH6.

I don't really do seasonal things in games like this, can someone briefly guide me how that works?

I did a seasonal challenge race with a C class car requirement, won it, but there's no indication on its map marker that I cleared it or anything.

Just a bit confused how these things work.


Like, in this example. I beat the bottom race with the appropriate car and everything but it's not 'marked' as completed even after its done and the progress bar towards the reward box isn't moving forward.

Just a bit confusing.

A "championship" is usually more races (i think its always three...at least in 5 was it like that)...not just one. Have a look on yr map.

There's 3 races in a championship, if they didn't change it from FH5.

 

[adamsapple]

Thanks guys, I do see multiple other icons on the map for this, will complete them all and see if it changes and gives me the reward.

Should only be 2 others after that first one, filter the map for seasonal events makes them easier to find

 

[Jibran#one]

So they AGAIN did the same shit? And they said it'll be different this time. And I also READ BEFORE release it's different this time. Ugh, horrible. Driveclub did it right!

Yup same to same .
Absolutely stunning map 10/10
Absolute dog shit progression

The Highway Race and cross-map Trailblazers were the most challenging for me.

The 2016 Jeep Trailcat (stock) carried me through every off-road event where it was allowed.

I put in 15 hours straight yesterday and have only a few races to go before I have completed the campaign. I'd say the only thing I don't like about the game is the soundtrack which I easily fixed by streaming the Spotify app on the Xbox over top of Forza. In the audio settings of the game I turned music to 0% and in the Spotify app I set the audio balance to 65% Spotify and 35% game and it was perfect.

The map is really great, easily my favorite yet.

I feel like the colors are very muted at times, almost like an HDR bug.

If you are taking Forza Promo pictures at the start of the race the frame rate drops to easily single digits at times. This is on Series X performance mode.

People were amped about the progression and the colored bands but just like FH5, I was ripping around the open world in a 1000hp hypercar 10 minutes after starting the game as I was being showered with insanely powerful cars right from the start.

I had a bug where the longer I played the game the longer my load times were getting. It was at the point where it was a solid minute and a half on literally any loading screen. A quick restart of the game solved it until it eventually slowed down a few hours later again.

Remember when PGR2 had a radio station dedicated to playlists on your Xbox? I miss those days.
