Rivals suggestions are always welcome.
>>566703526 they did say they have the intention of making an in house club system down the line. lots of words and no promises, but maybe enough for you to huff some hopium
>>566706509 i would still suggest you to wait you probably have less chance of being spotted as pirate amongst millions of other players. everyone who plays right now is getting hardware/ip/franchise ban
>>566705126 there's room for two racing generals on /vg/, there are plenty of other racing games to discuss, but the forza events like the weekly rivals or endurance races will keep happening here
I tell ya, I get no respect! I just started playing Forza Horizon 6 - beautiful game, right? I pull up to the starting line in a multi-million dollar hypercar, and the crowd starts cheering. I felt like a king! Then I looked closer... they weren't cheering for me, they were cheering because my engine was smoking and they wanted to roast marshmallows!
>>566717194 oh, is a mod, thought it would be a recommended playlist, makes me miss when you could play music while playing games on the XBOX 360. Not gonna play it on PC because I am sure I would have to fiddle with the graphic settings a lot.
And the GPS in this game? Forget about it! I asked ANNA for the quickest route to the festival, and she directed me straight into a ditch. I told her, "I'm looking for the finish line!" She says, "With your driving? Try looking for a mechanic and a priest!"
I tried to customize my car, ya know? I put on the fancy rims, the big wing, the works. I take it out for a spin and hit a small bump. The car does eighteen backflips and lands in a swimming pool! I look at the screen and it says "Ultimate Air." I said, "Ultimate Air? I’m underwater! I’ve got a goldfish stuck in my air intake!"
Just checking in on my potential pan that poomar and shilljeet threatened me with >aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand no ban Oh dear, its almost like I kept trying to tell people on /v/ that the stinky jeets at PGG cant do anything even if you're playing while connected to the internet
No respect at all! I finally won a race, and what do I get? A "Wheelspin." I’m excited, I’m thinking big money, maybe a new Ferrari. The wheel stops... and I win a pair of legendary pink polka-dot socks. My car is worth two million dollars and I’m standing on the podium looking like Minnie Mouse!
>>566736923 yep, they finally pulled the plug on that broken mess but i heard they gonna bring it back in some way later on maybe as a monthly update focused on team racing and stuff
See, look. Let me tell you something about Forza Horizon 6.First of all, Playground Games is out of their minds. They expect me to believe that a 1993 Honda Civic with a laptop in the passenger seat can beat a multi-million dollar Bugatti Chiron down a mountain? In what world? In what universe? That ain’t horsepower, beloved, that’s witchcraft. You got white smoke coming out the exhaust and a check engine light blinking in Morse code, but you just passed a vehicle engineered by aerospace scientists. Stop lying to the people!
And let’s talk about these "Festival Drivers." Have you noticed how these people drive? They don't have insurance! They don’t have a mortgage! They have absolutely nothing to lose! You are cruising down the highway, minding your own black-owned business, trying to listen to the radio. Suddenly, a twenty-year-old in a neon green Jeep Wrangler broadsides you at two hundred and forty miles an hour. And what does the game call it? "Ultimate Clean Racing." Clean?! There is fiberglass in my chest cavity, sir!
Reminder that /fgh/ stands with PGG and against leakers and piraters. Anyone discussing playing the game illegally will be violently removed and ostracized.
And don't get me started on the economy of this game. You win a grueling, five-mile street race against professional drivers. You risk life, limb, and digital property. You cross the finish line, you wipe the sweat from your brow, and the game gives you a Horizon Wheelspin. You’re thinking, "Yes, Lord, bless your servant, give me the Lamborghini." You spin that wheel... and you win a pair of silver glittery hot pants and a car horn that plays La Cucaracha. I am a grown man! I cannot pay my mechanic in glittery hot pants!
>>566747204 eh funny, reminds me how Horizon 5 at launch had a nice exploit to get a lot of free spins.......I wish I had exploited the shit out of that.
>>566745817 >never needed to use shitcord how would you suggest we communicate then, given xbox chat is unusable? where would you suggest we post off-topic then, given people have gotten banned for that here?
>>566755260 why are these faggots acting like this is horizon zero dawn level bad? in that game story is the main focus. so dialogue being committee written is a big downside. in forza horizon your main purpose is to vroom. not listen to some faggot explain why there are mech dinosaurs...
>>566763454 stick on rally tires, go max weight reduction, antilag turbo, and set arbs to like 10/65 and try it again, rally diff with torque 75% to rear
>>566763690 I'll try that next time I'm on. I didnt bother with rally tires or rally diff this time as I thought that PGG might have changed it up from how the optimal way to make cars were in FH5
There should be as many "levels" of rally tires as there are regular tyres. Same with all other tyre types. Changing tyres (as long as it's within the same "level") should not cost PI and be possible in between races in a single tournament.
>>566764471 Well shit you might well be right about the formula not being different. I tried rally tires/rally diff on a very unoptimized build. I was only 1/10th a second down on my other tune that had 50HP more. Daikoku Chase was the track chosen because it's a 50% handling and 50% power track. I'm gonna play around with it some more and sacrifice some items like weight reduction and see how it goes
>>566765318 >>566766267 considering its possible to replace vehicle models now, maybe someone could make a mod to replace them with some kei car or whatever
I paypigged for the Premium edition, I usually just torrent everything I play, so it's not a big deal. Tbh don't even care bout muh dei muh progression muh wide roads, I just look forwards to cruising on the loops around Tokyo in a Chaser
>>566795249 no point or incentive in disabling rewind sinc fh4. Keep it on for doing bullshit openworld boards, stunts or rivals lap restarts and just don't use it in races
Trying to be an artsy photographer n sheit >>566798906 They're all absurdly grippy at low speeds The R32 is my favorite because it can stand up to the bullshit fast touge opponents which all scale to your current car PI
>>566800798 Oh cool you're playing Are they subpar due to track selection? I don't think anything will change with mo power baby if any tracks have straights
>>566775242 They exist but they are not extremely common, forza's 6 traffic are not varied enough like gta where they could add such cars into the pool and come off looking natural, they should have at least added some kei cars, or Hiace vans which are everywhere in japan
Bros I'm so excited for FH6, even though I know online is going to be a shitshow the first week. They made our weekly challenge thing from a few years back with the Spec Racing, that is pretty cool.
I hope they come up with more interesting open world jobs in the future, but I'm not sure they have the balls to implement anything experimental. Something like delivering gift cars to various player's garages would be cool
>>566814232 whoa anon-sama, that's a very cool and funny clip, and I am telling you this becase I know who you are and want bonus points from you in the big circle jerk
Alright so after watching some people stream FH6 it seems that car physics are pretty much the same other than that gay destructible tree thing, tuning is also the same too, same tires and swaps. The usual suspect cars and parts for being a meta tune also seem the same and just the PI range and classes who got changed. Thankfully spec racing exists and I hope its gonna be a popular mode.
>>566822178 This is not right. Played it for quite a bit already and the game has a way bigger emphasis on front tyre grip and the game rewards you a lot more for weight transfer, high power no handling builds feel way more undrivable than in 5 because of this, and drifting feels better too although I was already satisfied with it in 5.
>>566835684 Front tire width feels mandatory now Even in the lower classes I had to apply it to prevent the car from sperging out in corner entry while braking
>>566854191 I really miss playing the weeklies with you guys and look forward to getting back to it
>>566854579 That was the only time in FH4 I had something like that happen, it was super odd. IIRC the AI basically just all got stuck on that snow plow.
>>566855414 pls stay tuned, we are planning to start vrooms pretty much on first day of early access also, if your gamertag still the same, check your messages
>>566856482 Awesome, looking forward to it and I accepted. Going to try to be better about getting clips this time around. I think I lost all the screenshots I had unfortunately
>>566820725 Vote for suzuki in the support portal. I posted all links here if you don't feel like searching for them: >>>/vm/2446626 >>>/vm/2446646 >>>/vm/2446662 You will need an account on that site, though.
>>566865615 they also claimed to have rescanned other cars, like the ae86, but it was unchanged in the trailer... they might have fucked something up lol
>>566865232 >can't place vinyls on walls It's shit. The only hope is that it lets me replace the shitty lighting with one that's completely ambient to reduce glare when painting.
>>566877610 if you already have the game and download fast enough, sure, give it a try. nets you a loyalty car for fh6 and playing the intro is nice too if you enjoy the spectacle
Reminder that changing your region to play a game earlier than your location is granted access to it is against ToS and also disrespectful to all steam users who can't play until the predetermined global release time. Anyone doing this is not a true racist and will not be granted the title of /fhg/ superstar.
>>566804709 80% of Japanese traffic is just those kei stepvan things, taxis, and Toyota Priuses. maybe out in the countryside you can replace the taxis with kei trucks.
>>566908992 I haven't seen horizon's implementation but it's incredibly useful in motorsport, I wouldn't want to race without it. It's most useful in cockpit or bumper cam.
>>566908992 I think it can be useful in Horizon to read the intentions from someone behind you and see if they are actually trying to race or are just retarded.
>>566887235 pretty much, devs only really needed to model one kei box car and add priuses or hiaces but fumbled that assignment, instead filling the streets with 90s jdm and one very modern honda e that looks outta place
i'm not really familiar with these WTAC cars; i know they're an older collection, but are these pretty much the best on technical circuits? like would the modern WTAC cars outlap some top tier mclaren on those tracks?
I haven't done it in a while, but is pirating DLC just as easy and risk-free as before? I think there used to be a thing called CreamAPI or something like that. Is it still being used?
>>566957387 Assuming you're asking about 5, yeah it's the same as before. People playing 6 on the leaked copy don't need it because HV includes all DLC.
>>566959302 It doesn't have denuvo or other DRM so there probably aren't any anti-tamper checks in place, usually it's just Capcom wasting their time against DLC unlockers.
welp, thats it for Forza Horizon 5 thanks for hundreds and hundreds hours of fun thanks for keeping me sane and happy for last few years see you guys in Japan!
>>566967812 >nanananananana...preload If you can download the game in half an hour, why even bother preloading? It'll take longer than that to decrypt the full 160 gigs.
>>566881157 Some of the stats just don't make sense. Like a singly tire load of 10 million newtons (that's over 2 million pounds-force for you, americans).
Anyone boughted the premium upgrade key from any key sites? The ones I saw only mention pre-ordering the key which sounds like they'll send it tomorrow, I want to move to kiribati though
>>566978902 This worked with roadside objects in Fh5 too. Stone walls or telephone polls were common and you could use them to slow down for tight turns faster.
>>566987938 If it's about having every car, here's a tip even if you buy the crazy premium edition right now, it will not include all the car packs they will release horizon 5 has 10+ extra car packs that released separately, for example
>>566987938 Even if you buy premium, you won't be getting all cars, you'll have to buy DLCs and those are only worth it on sale only. Always check auction house for rare cars. Grind money by doing long circuits first. Then you can buy whatever you want. For race builds, always do engine swaps because they'll give you most power.
>>566988158 >>566988175 >>566988654 Alright I'll keep my eye on this auction stuff then, and I assumed as much with DLC cars being a thing but waiting for sales seems smart in the long run. Thanks anons!
>>566989407 That wasn't the case with 5. FH5 was a fucking disaster in every way imaginable. It took months until devs finally fixed infinite multiplayer loading problems.
>>566994247 I'm on LTSC and the game runs and plays as normal >>566987080 >R33 is a FOMO unlock Yeah that pisses me off. I was trying to accumulate wheelspins in the hopes of unlocking that motherfucker. I guess the Autech 4dr version is gonna be a carpass purchase at some point
Some late night cruising https://files.catbox.moe/avpeto.mp4 >>566993550 A massive step up, Bass Arena is great with only 1 sucky song. Haven't listened to Block Party or the classical station but everything else has been solid
should i get the vip for the tokyo house (free wheel spin a day) or should i just grind to 3 mil to purchase. how hard is it to hit that 3 million benchmark.
>>566991176 The amount of speed reduction you got from hitting that first tree was within natural drop range. In other words, it seems trees don't slow you down at all. I'm going to sleep, I'll test it myself tomorrow.
>>567007292 I never really got it into. I tried, there's some cars in it that I liked, but it just didn't click for me, especially the map and the multiplayer feeling dead Not saying it's bad or good, it just didn't click
>>567016335 idk im gonna be doing spec races for a while and then using what i get from wheelspins which i assume they still give you after a series ends
so in fh5 this car was an absolute bitch to get down to A class, i believe it only worked with snow tires and it looks like its going to be the same thing in fh6, thats not that big of a deal in it self but i think it tells us what the modified pi system is like, its going to be mainly the exact same
if any of you paypiggie and pirate chads played the leaked build, delete >%localappdata%\Forza Horizon 6 >C:\XboxGames\GameSave\pgs if you want a clean start. also don't forget to login to your main account on the xbox app. 15 mins left.
>>567034046 i have the same cpu and an nvme if that matters this number is all over the place and probably wont take that long, but it still long as fuck. im going to go eat
>>567034162 nta but I have a 10900kf and a gen 3 nvme. I'm at 99%. I started at exactly 12:00 so it took like 10 minutes lol. it really shouldn't take you 34 mins with the best cpu on the market and a gen 4/5 nvme im assuming.
I was always interested in playing the Forza Horizon games, but got grossed out by the vegans in skinny jeans constantly yapping. How is Forza 6 when it comes to this?
i am annoyed that they added the veloster/i20/i30 which are all basically the same fucking car but left out the elantra N, which they could have just ripped the model from the dead forza series
BROS POTATO PC REPORTING MY PC CRASHED TWO TIMES WHEN I BENCHMARKED, SO I HAD TO GO WITH 1080P INSTEAD OF 1440P IT LOOKS CHOPPED BUT IT LOOKS FINE ALSO I CAN FEEL MY GPU STRUGGLING, PLS PRAY FOR MY GPU LMAO
So, now that the game has had it's proper early launch has anyone that actually bought the game but still played the leaked build get a ban if you used the same account? Or have they just now proven that it was all empty threats.
I'm retarded and use a Microsoft account on my Windows install and didn't realize the leaked build auto-signed into my main Xbox account until I realized I had already earned seven achievements. Would like to buy the game but don't know if I should worry about a ban or not.
