Fuck me.

I was JUST going to bed, read this reply and said to myself "Uhh, no.. that can't be it.."

Well fuck me too, 'cause now it works..

So does installing this on PC prompt with a window to choose install location?

It did with me yes.

Loading tunes/paints and the Auction House is taking ages. Hopefully that's a sign of great sales!



This game man... this game.

 

[Netprints]

I redeemed my warthog code but now it is gone from my garage, any way to get it back. I believe I lost it when I uninstall the demo. Anybody know the fix for it?

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Looks like my Best Buy pre-order is shipping early! (regular edition) It's set to arrive tomorrow morning. (if you pre-ordered from BB check your tracking info)
First time a game I pre-ordered has actually shipped a few days before release. Can't wait to play this.

If it doesn't, start button > settings > system > storage (scroll to the bottom and change 'new apps will save to...' to whatever folder)

Good to hear. I wonder why Halo 5 Forge didn't prompt me...

Yeah, but I don't want everything being installed on my HDD. Small apps (Netflix, Plex, etc.) can stay on my SSD.

I'm having a problem GAF

Every time I go to redeem my codes for either the Mercedes or warthog I get this and it's furiating!!!!

I'm not even on the preview program

 

[professor_t]

Stuck the landing xD

And the original video with oddly appropriate music playing:

That's amazing. What happens if you do that with simulation damage on?

Xbox servers are having problems at the moment.

Ahh been playing all day and haven't even been in the big city. Gonna spend a lot more time in this game than 2 I think. Don't think I'll ever be tired of the map, its so varied and filled with awesome terrain. Too bad photo mode is ruined on pc it seems. Glad I found out the drone is a nice substitute

Yes, just checked the North American status page and sure enough there is issues

 

[HoTHiTTeR]

I bought the ultimate edition so I could play this weekend. :/

I don't really care about all the extra DLC, season pass, all the other stuff. Would anybody like to buy the codes off of me, including the Best Buy specific Jaguar DLC, for $35? PM if interested. Thanks!!

Getting a Forza Horizon 3 servers are down message...can't download paints.

 

[Neil_J_UK]

So, I'm one of the people suffering from VIP not registering issue. How do I stop using my wheel spins each time I level up? When I level as a result of gaining XP from a race, it goes straight into the wheelspin.

Also, I still seem to be getting microstutters, even when setting priority to maximum on nvidia control panel. Setting cpu priority to low for the app, as I've seen suggested, made it way worse.

 

[Tendo]

Weird problem. Wife is playing on her account on our xbox one, and I am playing on my account on pc. My account is signed out on the xbox. Two seperate xbox accounts.

Everytime I try to do almost anything, turn the game on, accept a friend invite, it logs her out on the xbox and logs my account in. Not a huge issue but it requires her to restart the game everytime. This has happened 3 or 4 times now. What do I need to do so when I do something on PC it doesn't log off her signed in account?

 

[blame space]

Damn, the game just suggested i turn the difficulty up to.. highly skilled 😎

Do you have a Kinect? Can it see you?

 

[Noobcraft]

Probably totals the car. Iirc in FH2 you could wreck to the point the car wouldn't drive anymore.

 

[Tendo]

Do you have a Kinect? Can it see you?

Nope. No kinect. I can get it to repeat by accepting a friend invite on PC, or launching the game. It will log out her signed in account, and log in my account which I signed out of.

Hmmm looking at old videos of Forza Horizon 2, seems they removed reflections in the windows for Horizon 3?

[peteykirch]

Last time I do Release Day delivery on Amazon.

It's after 8PM and it's still not here.

Even with the discount they give you it's not worth it.

 

[DirtyLarry]

Classical is all u listened to driving through Italy in fh2. Will be the same here.

I thought maybe I just picked it in FH2 as I truly do think it fits the mood perfectly and I enjoy it, but now I know it was actually their choice and not mine. Damn good choice on their end and I only listen to it and the Hip Hop station.

 

[deoee]

Co-op is so damn fun in the game.

It's a shame the VIP stuff still does not work

Nope, they're definitely there. I can barely see out of the 2017 Ford GT's windscreen if I'm in direct sunlight because of them.

EDIT: Quick proof from the McLaren P1:

 

[cilonen]

First Horizon game here. I love that if I rock up to an event and it's something I have no interest in, like Chevy vs. Dodge, I can just redesign it on the fly.

Absolutely awesome.

 

[Apoleptica]

Does VIP stuff work on pc yet?

 

[Gtagentleman]

So how are the online races on PC? Hard to get into one if you are playing solo?

I'll get the standard edition, will it lock me out of some online races for not having any dlc?

Looks like it's still not working for me.

Nah, just you can't buy said car

listening to timeless while drifting corners in a Mercedes is the classiest thing of all time

 

[roMonster]

Have they said anything about a day one patch?

...but seriously these problems are concerning for us plebs.

 

[Deleted member 752119]

Fuck it. Just going to play some more. I'd rather miss out on some VIP bonuses than not play while waiting on them to fix it. I'll just mostly dick around with non-race events since leveling up out of races you can just not spin the wheel and bank it for later.

You'll be playing against Xbox players too.
You'll use whatever class car is chosen, you can't get locked out of anything.

To add to this - Forza handles DLC very well with cars at least. The assets are included in updates so everyone gets the actual files for the car and can see them ingame, you're simply locked out of them if you don't own them. Because of that you can always play with (and even see) people who have the DLC cars.

I miss racing tons of Buick Regals in FM4 MP.

 

[Bsigg12]

Oh man this is good

 

[blame space]

fuck, this game. I'm just sitting parked watching people walk on the beach during the sunrise to edvard grieg.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

I don't want to stop playing.

 

[cilonen]

Just had a thought - the other named racers I see in free roam are Driveatars aren't they? I've had some hideous unintentional head on and T-Bone smashes and just had a sudden thought I might have messed another player up.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Hmm no Warthog for some reason. I have the code redeemed but it's not in my Garage or anything.

Yes

Cool, thanks.

 

[BrandonPckrfn]

This game is so good

 

[RedStep]

My VIP Pass won't download (or even show up as Ready to Install, which is a little scary), which is killing my desire to play. I want my rewards! Every time I spin the wheel and don't get my bonus credits I die a little more inside.

I'm still getting VIP bonuses in spins......what are you taking about?

 

[Complex Shadow]

so i am thinking about buying this game.
is the ultimate edition worth it?

edit:
i mean, like, do you get all cars and cars to come?

 

[ScientificPizza]

Are you playing on PC or Xbox?

I don't know that i've heard it working for anyone on PC yet
