Forza Horizon 5 - Mexico

Yeah the server is flaky is anything, good luck when everyone else comes online!

The worst part of it is when you get disconnected you just stop dead like you’ve hit a brick wall.

I only realised after I'd spent my free car token on the Lotus Evija that you don't get cash from races anymore, kind of wish I had just bought one of the 15-20 million priced cars now....

So where do I buy this if I want to play today?

Or is it best to wait for the steam version?

The Steam version is playable now but only if you buy the 80 quid version.

I did some sort of season change and afterwards there was weird blue/white graphical glitches everywhere

I thought it was a poor attempt at snow at first.

Has anyone used their pick any car for 'free' with the premium pass yet? If so what did you choose?

My favourite ever car when I used to play Test Drive Unlimited on Xbox 360 was the Shelby Daytona Coupe.

I decided to buy that, little did I know it appears to be the most expensive car in the entire game - 30,000,000 CR and then saw I had a free car voucher (didn't know why at the time)..I used it for that.

that still says prepurchase. looking at cdkeys they seem to have it for the app store, or the app store themseleves.

 

[Skynet5]

Just checked cdkeys for my code and it was there, downloading now

can you help me out...there seems to be a few options...

no worries...but bought the steam version in steam. the tenner saved isnt worth it for me.. prefer to keep stuff in steam.

first time downloading something so big over my new fibre connection. such a relief. 1.5hrs vs 5.5hrs!

 

[ElliorR]

I preloaded this the other day and was pleased to see they have improved the downloading. Last time I was subbed to Game Pass, the downloading was horrendous.

Thanks, joined !

I seem to be permanently disconnected today.

Not enjoying the way the Horizon Adventure parts just stop whatever you are playing when you get enough accolade points. Was just doing a drift arcade event and it cut in half way through a corner

Agreed, infuriating.

Been tonks since I played a game like this. Loving it.

Other than network disconnects constantly, and the odd stutter. It looks bloody lovely.

Running a 3080 FE at 1440p with everything maxed and I don't think it's dropped below 85fps.

I'm going to attempt this on probably one of the most out-dated systems in this thread, the only part which meets the recommended requirements is my GTX 1070. The rest is... actually ten years old this year - I really should upgrade soon!

I won't lose much if I'm not happy with the performance because I've taken advantage of the 3 months for £1 deal and I'm sure I can find other games to try if FH5 doesn't run as well as I'd like. That means a wait until the 9th before I can play, but at least I can download it now at 100Mb/s which is the only other half decent thing connected to this PC.

And someone accept me in? Skynet5

Well, it’s been a lonely afternoon on there not being able to connect. Finally managed to find the final piece of undiscovered road (made more difficult by being a tiny unshaded dash of an off-road segment and one that wasn’t visible on the mini map). Then bought the final house. It’s a lot easier being able to fast travel everywhere now. I’ve discovered enough fast travel boards to make it really cheap. I also won a 9 million Ferrari on one of the wheel spins, usually I get a free hat
