I don´t understand, you make this beautiful game and it feels completly dead.
Barely any other players show up. No or very few AI traffic. In previous horizon games atleast you have some traffic and some drivatars to mess with. But this feels just dead.
If i want something to happen i have to go chase some sheep (you did a great work with those lol). It doesn´t feels like the game was ready to launch.
The soloplay was great, but now with multiplayer in a totally mess i have a hard time to enjoy the game. There has to be some big patches coming up to fix the many issues there is in the game. Just look at the forum, its jumping with frustration.
Yeah i know, but they really pushed for that the open world could have 72 online players. I can´t even count more than 5-10 ppl at best. Trying to make contact or set up a race thats impossible.
Same, in the US, I have anywhere from 40 to 70 online in my session.
This evening, it showed 42, but looking at the map, no one to be found. Zero AI. A live event came on so I went. That was the first time I saw anyone, and that’s when I checked session to see it show 42. At start of live event, I only saw my self and they other car(he didn’t show on mini map). As soon as event started, there were several more. Still no one showed on map.
There were so many participating in live event, it was finished under 5 minutes. Still no one on map, and players disappeared from view after event. Session still showed 40 plus players.
I chose to join new session and as soon as I did, not only did session players show on map, I now had names all over the screen and quite a bit of AI traffic.
This whole no one showing up on the map or minimap is a new glitch from the update last week that us effecting Xbox and PC. This is by far the most bug filled horizon to date and I’m a bit disappointed every week is filled with more issues even though the game has been out for over a month now. It’s like there is a team of five people who test the entire game, or they hired people from the project cars dev team.
I’m usually ignoring the presence of 60+ other people when I’m playing, too. And on or offline there’s usually more AI traffic than I really want. Except for a little while after one update when there was no traffic whatsoever. That was nice.
I agree.
This FH4 has the worst multiplayer of all Forza games up to now.
The ranked adventures are totally mess and in my opinion, with this system, it is imposssible to reach high level and every month you have to repeat 10!!! (incredible) qualifing adventures.
Please devs, fix multiplayer that in the current state is unusable.
It’s hard to get someone to join a coop or pvp race that you set up even if the session got 50+ players in it. I think there needs to be further incentive to join these races. perhaps a bonus of sorts for setting up and joining races against other players. seasonal events and adventure seem to be the only places to find people to race with or against.
I don’t understand the online mode. I usually play solo. Recently I’ve tried more online, and chased down other players, but they seem oblivious. So, I just honk and say “Hi” a bunch.
I never see any traffic. The odd time there may be a couple of cars but usually I can drive around for an hour and not even see one car. Not on the highway or even in the city. It’s weird. Obviously the spawning system is messed up. The world seems totally fake with no traffic at all.
The latest patch (update) have so many faults its rediculus, the one that bugs me the most is when you play bumper cars (team adventure) and you get bump off a checkpoint usually by a “teammate” you don´t get reset. No you have to drive back and get the checkpoint, atleast before you got reset and you have a chance to race for position. I know its a glitch and this will be fixed, but i wonder if they really test the patch properly.
The good thing for me with the latest patch is that you can leave the adventure between sessions. Because the loading times are just soooo long.
Some people notice red stop signs more than green, these are the people who notice bugs that green lighters don’t even see. I know of the reset issue in multiplayer but I’ve never encountered it, maybe its because I spend more time on my wheels!
Keep getting on losing team when i try the Team Adventure.
Everytime my team get maybe 300 or 400 pts max. But the opposite team does always win.
After 2 rounds i leave because it’s boring getting on losing team.
It doesnt matter if one player try his best, when 90% of the team do nothing.
If this continue the game will be dead sooner or later. Just saying from my player view.
Yeah the team thing gotta come to an end or atleast give us yhe option to play by our else. With times, lap times and points in a championship.
And i really wanna see the finishline where the other players cross the line with times after the race instead of looking at my character making some silly stuff.
I 100% believe it is due to the removal of collisions in online .
So lemme get this straight. Collisions were removed because of the 72 player limit or something right? But the game seems to be able to only display like 15-20 players max. So what is the point in removing collisions again? The second I found out I couldn’t even touch anybody I lost interest in the game. Almost all the forza games I’ve played I have over a thousand hours in yet this one I have zero interest playing after the second week.
Add them as a friend or join their convoy and smash into them as much as you like if that’s all you want to do
And you will then know why it is the way it is
