Forza Horizon Forza Horizon 5 FH5 Discussion

In few weeks FH5 will hit a new milestone with 30,000,000 players in the hall of fame. About 10 million additional players in the last 12 months.

I look forward to celebrate this milestone with some dsignes, gathering/meating for photography, and expedition convoy.

Only 52.93% of players have completed ā€˜race into actionā€™ (complete your first race) achievement on xbox

FH5 is also part of the 500pt MS Rewards punch card this month which will bring it an injection of players, it requires you to earn 3 achievements and itā€™s very generous with achievements early game so it will be a lot of peopleā€™s choice out of the 5 eligible games.

I think the whole concept of ā€˜A Hall of Fameā€™ is that there arenā€™t just that many in it. Forza just tucks everyone in there, lol.

SUREEEā€¦30M when a lot of players canā€™t even play the game. Launches new DLC but breaks the game for a lot of players. Its as if no one does any proper tests. 30M imaginary players being pulled from lalaland

I hadnā€™t thought about that! You are right! What a crappy way to implement something that is supposed to celebrate real dedication translated into significant achievements. Perhaps no one at PPG is a real sports or music fan. Good thing things donā€™t work that way in the real world or every person who ever put their song up on iTunes would be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame!

I saved the whole Rally DLC for just such an occasion. I got 3 achievements yesterday and another 2 today, but the ā€˜get 3 achievementsā€™ portion of the punch card is still not registering for me. Oh wellā€¦

FWIW, similar, had lots of easy Rally cheevos left figuring Iā€™d need some for just such a Rewards goal and got three done pretty easy first day. And also like you itā€™s still not registering the achievements in the Rewards step. Probably just the delay they mention. Guess weā€™ll see.

this is a gamepass-milestone and has nothing to do with FH5

Iā€™m three of them (2 xbox profiles, + PC). Iā€™m sure many are the same.

Itā€™s happening to most it seems, the rewards app is absolutely borked and has been for a long time now.

I find that ā€˜tracking may be delayedā€™ line embarrassing more than anything else too, telling us itā€™s going to mess up doesnā€™t excuse it, in my eyes thatā€™s just them trying to cover their back when they know it doesnā€™t work properly.

Theyā€™ve already used the poor tracking as an excuse to move the old 50pt daily achievement reward to GP quests, limiting everyoneā€™s options for it to GP only games + excluding non GP subscribers out of potentially 350pts a week.

I also noticed that the point totals in Ambassadors hasnā€™t updated at all in the past two days (the type that normally update instantly. I know that some of them take awhile. They are marked completed, but no points have been added.). I do these for the quarterly reward of 1 free month of game pass ultimate.

EDIT: Sorry, I know this post may be somewhat off topic, but it may be related to the rewards program not updating correctly, Hard to tellā€¦

Ive played against some of these ā€œplayersā€ā€¦they drive as if theyre in a vegetative state. Now im wondering if these are actual players and not some Chat GPT derived bots or something. Theres no way a human player can be this slow
