There are no Lancias in the car collector list.

WHERE'S MY TRUENO!?!

collector list says Wheelspins, seasonal events, festival playlist, or forzathon shop

e: the turbo alone on the F450 adds 496hp and 1097ft/lbs of torque.

It also rips through 6 gears before 60mph.

e2: get hardcore NFS hot pursuit vibes from the northern road.

e3: HALLELUJAH! you can have distance in kms and power in horsepower! only been asking for that for like 15 forza games

Thanks for the tip. According to the GeForce™ Doritos® Experience© I'm up to date, but I'll certainly keep an eye out for newer stuff.

It's the exact same mysterious crash I was getting in MSFS for a while, which disappeared in equally mysterious fashion.

This game is beautiful, and Mexico is the perfect setting! i can't believe how much more I'm enjoying the terrain in this one.

Standard tech support would be to mess with your settings for a bit to see if anything is causing the issue.

Might actually be audio-related?

my first try at the "colossus" took 15mins in a stock amg-one. the boring parts felt more interesting than the boring parts in fh4 but I don't think it rose to the heights of the previous one for me anyway.

-the map is even better than i thought it would be, which is impressive considering i thought it looked magnificent. holy poo poo it's so much fun loving around in the desert, and it's so nice to have a map where 90% doesn't all look the same.
-there's no song on horizon pulse i hate this time around, which is nice
-overall this game feels like fh4 with a better map. this suits me just fine, fh4 was the best game in the series as-is and its map was by far its weakest aspect
-where the gently caress is the sw20 :argh:

Sound good?

I'd like to extend Admin right away to Gutbomb, Kaddion (if you are interested) Cubivore, and I need help adding the right European and Oceanic drivers.

No special rules just like GNRC, except don't be a dick. Don't ruin the fun.

my gamertag is Captain Howdy 0 (that is a trailing "zero" on the end).

GNRC was huge. I hope GRCC FH5 can be. Huger.

I just put check marks next to almost everyone in my friends list who's ever raced in one of the goon clubs that I know of for sure. It was under the "recommend someone" section so I hope you all are getting your invites.

I'm getting objectives and managed to get into a Horizon Arcade session alone (netting me a whopping 1 point for filling one group objective), but the Forzathon Shop doesn't load. Still, even the daily objectives give you the whole week to finish now, instead of the 3 day rotation from 4. So it should still be possible to 100% this season once the game launches for everybody.

Note that some cars give out Forzathon Points as car mastery awards now.

Windows store apps sometimes break in really odd ways. You could try the following ps command as admin:

Snip

Apparently worked for some people with similar issues in other games

Edit: uh apparently other people found that command breaks even more poo poo though so maybe don't do this.

Edit 2: if you want to try this then I'd recommend finding the AppXPackage ID for horizon so it only runs against that app, rather than for every app installed which is what the command currently does

Edit 3: removed unhelpful advice!

game is really really good but there are a couple slightly annoying PG design choices like challenges that expect a player to have full assists (3 star on the first mission of Test Driver is almost impossible without full stacon/tracon, even for someone who has completed every major Forza game on Unbeatable AI difficulty with no assists), and no way to cancel Horizon Live/Arcade events means that driving even generally in the area of an ongoing one causes you to have the overlay and GPS route on your map for the next 10 minutes/however long until it times out.

maybe the difficulty thing is intentional to give wheel users an extra challenge with no assists (I play with a controller) but there really needs to be a button to either force quit an event, or a button press that you have to hit to opt-in or "enter" the event when you're near it imo. maybe there is one but if so I flipped through my menus and tabs and couldn't find it so it should be made a little more prominent

The Eliminator has this problem as well, play again is on A ie, the button you naturally press to get through menus and there's no way I've found to cancel out of the queue once you're in so I've done 3 times more Eliminators than anyone should ever have to do (1).

Yeah I'm having the same feeling, doesn't help that a lot of it feels like reverting back to Horizons where a lot of the map is full throttle so you're not doing anything interesting. I haven't gotten into the dirt races yet though and so much of their marketing was on "you can race through the jungle!" that I'm hoping that's where the more interesting scenery is.

Also absolutely agree that it's way too eager to shovel everything it has at you right away, I unlocked The Colossus within 2 hours and that's meant to be the grand capper to all the road racing stuff. I'd only done 4 road races at the time. It could really have done with 4's extended intro going through the different seasons and introducing the different stuff more gradually.

Dude?
I love FH5. It’s great with a wheel on the PC and I easily get 60FPS with all the eye candy turned up to max (except MSAA only at 2x) at 4K with a 9900k and 3080.

The only item I have on my wishlist is for cars that don’t use a clutch to disable the clutch and H pattern shifter so I can fall back on the paddles for them, like every other driving game/sim does. Gran turismo has been doing this since gt5 on the PS3. It’s really annoying in modern cars that have 8-10 gears when my stick only has 6+R and using a clutch with the paddles is awkward.

I'll admit I was shocked when I saw the CLUBS area open in my menus and when I took a stab at creating "GRC" it hung up in the process. I despaired, because some other group has gotten GRC before us last time. I was afraid we'd lose our GRC tag for good if I didn't nail something down right away; then I figured it's a Horizon game so TopHat and SynMoo and the GTCC boys might not mind if we borrowed GRCC for FH5 and I'm glad it worked out. Hit me up if you want anything, kids; I miss you.

Gotta thank the folks upthread who told us who only have it via GamePass to buy the addons. That was slick and worked like a charm.

And you're welcome, Cubey. We may not agree on much but I hope we both agree you should be part of running this club. Your passion for racing and for Forza is something... no one would fake.

Please remember we are going to be needing some Euro goons and some Oceanic time-zone folks to fill out the moderation/help get folks playing together.

All the current invites are caught up. I have a bunch of little things to do before I can log in and chase the Festival, but I truly wanted everyone to be really happy about our FH5 community. We finished up FH4 in the top 1% of over 650,000 clubs, and that's pretty loving amazing to me. 133 total members (as of yesterday) with a combined influence greater than clubs much bigger than we, sitting @ # 1,899.
