Wow, that Goliath race was 15 minutes. Crazy.

I set up a Blueprint of it. 3 laps in my Subaru XP boost car (averaging about 12:10 per lap). At the end of the race I leveled up 14 (!) times. That race is so goddamn fun.

Spoiler

Better than the final showcase if you ask me!

It felt like a

final showcase/event

. I had that same idea about setting up a grind blue for it, but I'm trying to hold off on that since I did it so much in FH2 and didn't really have much to work for.

It's cool though that you can get repeatable perks now (or seems like it).

 

[murgo]

Jesus, is it just me or is the HE Ford GT impossible to drive? Can't handle it with a controller.

 

[blame space]

just got my first HE 😆

thing looks like an oil spill

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Turns out the Warthog is a great choice in case you need to deliver heavy SUVs

Haha. That's great.

Yeah, that's the one I snagged too. Played the Goliath Race a few times with it. Not sure if it's the car or the race, but holy hell, I've been leveling up like whoa.

Awesome, raced against a few. Would really like to get one.

 

[Fortinbras]

Do we know anything about the HE cars that aren't available yet?

I got the eleven HE cars but I want more.

i keep getting disconnected from the servers, what's going on ?

Don't forget Forza Horizon 1 is getting delisted from the xbox store on Oct 20th
https://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/...-9115-d8024d5309c9?DownloadType=Game#LiveZone

It was free Sep 1-15th for GWG members, you'll have to pay $20 for it now but worth grabbing if you don't have it, since it runs on xbox one's under BC. The achievement tracker and stuff work now under forza rewards so its worth 2000 points (1450 without DLC/tokens) and those 1450 points are pretty easy to earn.

Don't forget to log into and claim your forza rewards every friday as well, I got over 10m credits so far in F6 and FH2 thanks to it and I'm sure some people have way, way, way more than me since I'm only tier 7 but now only 400 points away from tier 8.

Nice. Just checked and had 125k reward in FH3. Neat; thanks.

 

[stn]

I love FM6. Strongly debating getting FH2 and FH3 ASAP. Only thing holding me back is backlog. Argh!

 

[zorbsie]

Finished up the bucket list. Only one that really gave me a problem was #19. Had to switch to manual shifting for that one.

[Outrun]

It's not a sim, so get that out of your head. You can MAKE it feel like a sim but it's an arcade racer at heart. You can play the whole game without tuning a single car, or just use the auto-upgrade option.

My GF doesn't play racing games but loves just driving around the open world doing whatever. Like, for hours at a time. Gets me lots of skill points!

I have my 7 year old go the same thing

 

[zorbsie]

Damn, which one is that?

The car is the Audi R8 V10 plus. The challenge is to keep a average of 50mph through a speed zone. Was missing it by 10mph until I switched.

 

[_woLf]

Just want to say what little I've played of this so far really is everything I wanted from Horizon 2 and then some.

Horizon 2 was disappointing to me after how much I loved Horizon. Horizon 3 is more of what made the original great, with added bonuses.

 

[blame space]

who fired me 😠

 

[ThomasCro]

I had to switch to automatic gearing for some challenges because it was too hard to concentrate.

 

[BFIB]

I've yet to come in first in a race besides the first one.

 

[MaxiLive]

Ouf, each gif you produce is 5x better than your last!!! Very impressive.

 

[SliChillax]

Funny you say that, I lost the first race and haven't lost since haha

 

[Deaf Spacker]

Is it me or are the drivatars completely broken? Even on the easiest setting I still get one or two right on my ass during a race and I'm not a bad driver.

 

[OrangeOak]

Can I buy it on polish store and still have english language?

 

[etta]

Auction house is so fucking broken with the loading and timing out...

The whole thing is broken for me at the moment. Can't even access the GAF club page.

Time to take a break I guess lol.

slooooooow down

 

[Darklor01]

OK, so it isn't just me. Seems like some cars are selling insanely low because of the time out and loading issues.

Spent the last 25 minutes trying to buy a GT HE but it keeps fucking timing out.

Fix this fucking shit!

 

[zorbsie]

slooooooow down

I can't stop playing anytime I want...anytime...

 

[OverturePT]

Damn. Never stop, man.

 

[aka_bueno]

Where do I find this Goliath race everyone is leveling up on? And what does leveling up give you exactly, just wheel spins right?

 

[eek5]

Yeah wheelspins. It's byron bay festival. You have to get it to level 5 then it appears on the beach area I believe.

 

[Clauss]

So, if I were to pick this up today, could I get the warthog?

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Anyone know how I download this game remotely to my Xbox one??

 

[backflip10019]

Here's a stupid question: where can you just buy new cars with credits? I don't really see an option to do that yet. Just starting out at level 4 so maybe it shows up later?

Edit: Oh it's in the auto show. Why didn't I think of that

 

[Hockeymac18]

My friend dropped by Surfers to take some real-world comparison shots.

You check out a couple more here.

Video games have come a long way. My 1994 self wouldn't believe what I'm looking at right now.

Ok im confused. What does my drivatar team actually do? I have 3 of 4 spots filled and i just dont see what they bring.

Have you received a code in your Xbox messages?

You get credits every time you login based on their performance afaik. I get like 20-30k a day from my hired drivatars

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

Damn that 'make your way to the city' in the Audi is hard. Fun though, it shall not beat me!

As far as I understand it, your Drivatar lineup gives you bonuses to the fans you bring in. The better your Drivatar line-up, the better your rewards. I don't remember if this fan bonus is applied at the end of events, or with a daily login, or both, but it's definitely tied to getting you more fans and therefore leveling up your festival sites faster.

does it tell you when you log in? I havent seen any notifications.

That was the most fitting piece of music I've ever heard, LOL

Ahh ok, thanks

i wish theyd bring this drivatar tech to other styles of games like halo. Have an AI play like you play when youre not online. Thatd be so cool.

Servers seem to be dead at the moment. Can't access anything that's related to being online.

Is there a way to turn the audio down or off on PC?
