So I have it installed, but don't see a way to use it. Whats up?

As others have mentioned, the game needs an update before the expansion is available in-game. That update is being readied as we speak and should be rolling out v.soon.

As a small aside, if you want to know more details about the expansion a detailed article is now up on our website

Thanks Helios!

Edit: Hopefully very soon means very soon. Kinda wish my Xbone could text me once its there or throw a flare or something.

Cool, looks great. I can't wait to do some cross country circuit races.

 

[jesu]

I'll just play The Crew for a bit....

 

[HeliosT10]

Hey all,

I've been informed that the VIP discount should now be working as intended.

Thank you! Just played some base game for first time in a while. God, it's good. Speeding through fields at sunset in the rain is glorious.

Hey all,

I've been informed that the VIP discount should now be working as intended.

Didn't change for me yet. Restarting my Xbox one now to see if that changes anything.

Restarted and it's still showing as $19.99.

It's also not showing up under add ons yet in my store. (Central US)

 

[HeliosT10]

As for the game update which enables the expansion in-game, I've been informed that it should start rolling out to players in roughly two hours time.

Thanks for your patience and apologies for any inconvenience caused by this small delay.

 

[ArgyleGamer]

I will be playing this all night, soon as I'm off work.

 

[JackAubrey]

Seems there are always issues when Forza DLC is released. Becoming the norm.

 

[barneystuta83]

I bought the Day One Ultimate edition.

Do I get this "free"?

 

[Noobcraft]

I bought the Day One Ultimate edition.

Do I get this "free"?

$10.

 

[barneystuta83]

$10.

I thought it was a season pass of sorts,shame it wasn't included all in. Was that just for VIP and Car packs then?

A lot of content for £9.99 but think I'll focus on finishing off the main races. I've completed the main 'story' but plenty to do before I venture on to this.

 

[vesvci]

I bought the Day One Ultimate edition.

Wow...wasn't the Ultimate Edition $99?

This rivals the whole BF4 pricing structure...I'd argue there's more content in BF4.

Glad I am stuck at work or I would be upset that this update was not ready BEFORE we could buy it..

thanks for the info but man next time make sure its ready to go before people pay money for it.

Looking forward to trying it tonight.

 

[Legendarybeepa]

Tried again, still not showing the vip discount. UK here.

 

[JackAubrey]

Wow...wasn't the Ultimate Edition $99?

No it doesn't.

You at no point bought a season pass. You bought a car pass.

If you have VIP you get this DLC half price. There's nothing underhand about this at all.

 

[HeliosT10]

You a Forza Horizon 2 VIP? This discount doesn't apply to Forza Motorsport 5 VIP's.

 

[Noobcraft]

I bought the FH2 Ultimate edition and it's not showing the discount for me either (central us)

 

[Legendarybeepa]

Yep, Horizon 2 VIP.

 

[HeliosT10]

Yep, Horizon 2 VIP.

Keep trying, I'm seeing lots of reports that it's now working correctly.

If anyone fancies watching us livestream the Storm Island expansion whilst the game update is readied for release, we're live now on Twitch.

[Bessy67]

Cool, discount shows for me. Downloading now.

 

[Klocker]

Bought it ready to play... do not get why the update would roll out so late, and after the dlc

 

[ekim]

Yep, Horizon 2 VIP.

OK, I'll keep checking!

 

[Noobcraft]

It's showing up under add ons now for me but it's still listed at $19.99 :/

 

[User 479360]

Sweet. I need to play this.

FH2 is my runner-up GOTY.

 

[Doffen]

Same.

 

[NullPointer]

As for the game update which enables the expansion in-game, I've been informed that it should start rolling out to players in roughly two hours time.

Bad form, but hopefully completely forgotten in two hours.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Bad form, but hopefully completely forgotten in two hours.

FH2 launch hiccups have been pretty consistent at least!

 

[vesvci]

No it doesn't.

You at no point bought a season pass. You bought a car pass.

If you have VIP you get this DLC half price. There's nothing underhand about this at all.

It's not about the marketing labels "season pass", "vip pass"....it's about the total cost for the consumer.

At this point, for a fully loaded FH2 it's $110....$110. I'm enjoying the game, but $110 it's a stretch (to be fair, I've only paid for the VIP pass).

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

I won't be able to get this until tomorrow, hopefully all the problems are ironed out by then.

 

[Legendarybeepa]

Just read the boy a bedtime story, came down and no discount. Gonna triple check I'm vip!

Also, never knew about the reloading thing. Mind blown! Thanks!

Edit: absolutely 100 per cent VIP.

 

[U2NUMB]

2 of my friends are now saying they can not see the VIP discount.. I saw it right away but they did not. Seems it is always something with this game and releasing... ugh.

 

[Doffen]

Is there a problem with the ultimate edition?
Both me and a friend are not seeing the discount.

 

[HeliosT10]

They definitely Horizon 2 VIP's and not just FM5 VIP's? How did they get the VIP access, via the ultimate edition or did they purchase it separately?

 

[TKR92]

I got the discount and using the Smart Glass app.

 

[everthustodeadbeats]

Any impressions yet? On the fence with this.

 

[gossi]

Any impressions yet? On the fence with this.

It isn't out yet. Needs a content update before it works in game.

 

[e90Mark]

Thanks.

So it shows up as $10 for me. Is the DLC discounted to $10 if I get the VIP?

So VIp+dlc=$20?

Makes better sense than straight dlc for $20

VIP shows up as $10 for you? Then yes, it would be VIP + DLC for $20.

 

[B3N1]

No discount here either. I have Ultimate Edition (the $100 one). Tried on Dashboard, Xbox.com, Win8.1 Smartglass and Android Smartglass too.

 

[everthustodeadbeats]

It isn't out yet. Needs a content update before it works in game.

Thanks.

 

[drugstore_cowboy]

Just bought it for £7.99 with the VIP discount, nice.

Watching. Map looks like a decent size.

 

[U2NUMB]

Both bought it like I did... bought the base game digitally PLUS the VIP which was discounted from having the Forza 5 VIP.. but both are most certainly VIP in Horizon 2.

You have the ultimate edition drugstore_cowboy, or did you buy the VIP separately?

Thanks for the info, helps to narrow things down.

 

[jesu]

Discount worked for me too just now.
By the time it downloads the update should be ready.Hopefully.

VIP was a separate purchase for me.

 

[Scorpion Soldier]

No discount showing up here yet. Bought the Ultimate Edition bundle.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

8 quid with the VIP pass?

Fair enough I'll take it!
