I got Horizon 4 via Game Pass and it owns bones. Got a 50k deal on the Forza Edition Caterham, but it seems unable to go in a straight line. Oh well, it's still a car, and plenty of stuff to do. I'm beelining for the 2m house, to have fast travel

The only car I can put up for a decent chunk is a Ferrari 250LM that I have I believe, I think I need to do some tuning or making liveries to unlock setting a higher buyout price, right? hexwren posted:the stock caterham is very good at going in a straight line Ah so it's tuned identically to every other car in my possession, I see  I got carried by some folks for the offroad championship thing yesterday, which was nice.

Play posted:By the way what're yalls favorite type of race/car class? For me it's Dirt and Rally Monsters all the way, I feel like FH actually does dirt and rally car feel pretty well for such an arcadey title I'll need to see the videos in the morning, but I'm loving the rally stuff. Only playing for a short while, they really seem to get this feeling of grip, but it can slip on demand. I did the LaRacer one today, with the Integrale, and it really felt like it could handle any surface. I have a 90s Escort in some itasha livery that I like throwing into dirt events, and I use the Quattro S2 for traversal, or the Renault 5 as a bit of an all around car. Sure, they can't hit 400kph or whatever, but they can also just dip into the countryside and make a straight line to wherever instead of bothering with all that "paved roads" nonsense

I started yesterday, managing to finish the opening after like 4 crashes. I still need to run the game as admin, and probably quit discord to have it be stable. Even today I had a random hang of the whole pc while just driving the map, the music stuttered, then the road ahead stopped rendering, and I guess I was too slow on the ctrl alt del cause even that didn't kill it before everything stopped responding. Maybe today's visual C++ update will help? I'm loving what I've managed to play so far, it's just some small frustrations that dampen it a bit, plus having a small amount of time to actually play. Will apply to the goon club when I unlock those

Y'all weren't kidding about the FH4 Trial, it's an absolute pain. S2 class, and half the time your teammates are just barely above random inputs. Managed to win the first, and win the second... In two separate attempts

S2 for trials is my bane. gently caress up once and you're yeeting yourself off at 900kph, there's zero room for error. I'm cool with championships because at least those have rewind and I can chill without worrying about even a tiny mistake. And, no delays if you want to restart.

FFT posted:remember how the devs were like "we acknowledge the problems where regular players couldn't complete things and will work on it" It would have been great if the Bentley was a reward from another seasonal thing, like the Trident you needed for the picture last week or so, which was a reward from the weekly points. I got my Bentley cheapish at 3,5m so I do have enough for the F40 too, but only because I threw some points at some Caymans earlier. Still don't have a Trailcat but that's the cheapest one of the three

Vivian Darkbloom posted:I'm doing the Autumn event "Underground, Overground" where you have 3 dirt racing with some street and some muddy track. What the gently caress is this thing anyway? This is exactly right, you need cars of the class "Hot Hatch". If I remember correctly, I did with a Vauxhall VXR that I had lying around and had no issues, I just picked up a tune from the posted ones I believe. Do you have a livery on your car? It adds 69 horsepower at least.

Incessant Excess posted:Some details about the upcoming Season have been released via chinese social media, this is a summary of google translate so may be a bit off: Are these two the first Chinese cars in the games? Showcase remixes are cool, fewer seasonal rewards is also cool, although I don't love the week to week thing as a complete replacement, I can see some "Oh man I missed last week's Bentley, I'm hosed now  ". They could do it within the week itself (win a championship, get the car for the feature) or even keep it as-is and just use thing like the four million Cr Bentley sparingly. I don't think anyone would be made about needing to spend 200k on a car, but the issue with the Bentley was that it was 20x that.

Play posted:
Is there still a 10 skill point maximum per combo like there was in 4? Best way to spend the points if you want money is that Cayman, one regular and one super spin for about 10 points IIRC The Midniter posted:I pumped as much horsepower as I could into the Golf (440 total I think?), backed allllll the way up the nearby Danger Sign ramp to the very edge, then just let loose down the hill straight as an arrow. It was barely enough, but it was enough. I just used the long stretch of road to the east. Ease off a little bit at the corner and take it flat after the apex and you're fine

Yeah it was really easy with a seasonal tune (probably could do it manually too) and starting on the long stretch of road to the west/south I guess. The corner isn't too bad, you can just take it a little early and maintain your speed so you don't yeet yourself down the canyon, but that's nothing some rewinds can't fix

Incessant Excess posted:The Cayman and the Trans Am had the super wheelspin removed from their mastery. These things always bug me. Okay, I get removing it from the Willys, it was a bit too cheap both in terms of CR and in terms of points, but it's not like you have some deep economy getting broken if people have a non-grindy way to make a couple of million, at least until we can buy the wheelspin house. Just make it more expensive in terms of points, have it cost 20 skill points instead of 10 or something. Horizon 4 had a skill points into money car (a Porsche i think?) and that had no trouble.

What is it with Horizon 5 anyway? Ok, bugginess at launch, it happened, but even now, with the game being a few months old you have things like photos not working right, liveries crashing the whole game, they made making money much more of a chore, it seems a bit haphazard? EDIT: And one of the needed cars this week is the 500k Deberti Toyota. Not even a choice of class, specific 500k truck or nothing. Not quite as bad as the 4 million Bugatti the other day but...

3 championships, 3 stunts, 1 trial, 1 playground games was the standard in 4, with monthly rivals being for the whole month (duh) and maybe a showcase remix (I think once a month). I like 5's system a bit more, ans switching it up with this month being more stunts is a fun change. The thing I dislike most in 4 is how if you miss even one of the things, you can't get the 80% weekly reward, which annoyed me when I tried to do the drift zone a couple of weeks back. With 5 it's easier it seems to get the higher reward, even with never touching arcade/eliminator (so similarly someone could do those instead of the treasure hunt or a championship for example)

I guess you can still tune them right? no different parts but just focusing on what you want for the event. My biggest wish for Trials is that they didn't go above A-class. I remember some S2 ones in FH4 and they were hellish

Symphoric posted:Yeah I figured I'd play this game straight up until the next Motorsport came out but hitting the garage limit has really sapped all my desire to keep playing. It seems like a petty complaint that 1000 cars isn't enough but every time I boot the game up now I'm like "why bother?" Late-ish to the chat, but yeah, bumping the 1k limit every day or two is very annoying. I kinda GET why there is one, but surely in a game with 600+ unique cars, it'd even be a bit higher, not to mention being able to scale with all the stuff we're getting for playing the game accurately (both rewards every series, winning the seasonal stuff etc)
