Finished the new story. It was bad at counting the near misses.
Yes it is. I needed two tries. But there´s plenty of time, so don´t take the shortest route to the festival.
So we still can’t skip cut scenes or adjust the volume of them.
Are ‘they’ pretty straight forward?
OR
is it like the others where there are crazy routes to take?
Pretty easy all of it
It’s an easier level than the others, you get 3 stars most of the time first go.
I normally play FH4 with with TCS and SC set to off, but thet Ford Transit SSV is awful without them switched on! Absolutely awful!
Struggled to get 17 on the first go and was spinning out all over the shop!
Switched both TCS and SC on and despite not all the near misses registering, still managed to get 24 without even trying.
The one part that had me banging my head against the wall was the stinky fish challenge. I was thinking it’s impossible to reach the destination in 1:00, so quit 3 times to see if there was a quicker route. It was only when I completed the first part of that challenge, I realised it was the second part that needs to be done in a 1:00, was was easily achievable in 45 seconds or so.
Straightforward, just tedious like usual. But they tie achievements to it so gotta do it if wanna keep 100%.
(high powered RWD in the wet, always lots of fun - and by fun I mean tedious.)
RWD high powered van was a pain, but you can’t turn traction control on without restarting the chapter so I didn’t bother.
So, here’s an interesting new glitch! Just tried the new Express Delivery business tonight and aced everything up until the 8th chapter - Package Relay. The task is to get 18 near misses for three stars. The problem? Just completed the run three times and not one single solitary car on any of the runs! Erm, has someone forgotten to switch the traffic on???
Update… Is an administrator keeping watch tonight? Just went back to the Xbox to record a clip of a 4th attempt and the switch has been flicked - traffic!!! Back to retry before it all vanishes again : /
Odd. No issue here. Got about 20 before going cross country. You might try going offline then back on again.
It happened to me on a similar mission from the Skill Streak story, the one where you have to drive the EB110 and get some near misses. Half way through and the whole highway is empty.
Just restart the mission and it should be fine, it happens sometimes I think.
i did fine first run 23.
I envy the exclusive upgrade of Horizon Story edition cars.
Vandura has thick off-road tires, and Transit seems to have the option of off-road tires with BF Goodrich letter.
The community has always wanted to add the option of letter tires from real brands such as Goodyear, TOYO and BF Goodrich to all cars.
It was given. But we can never get …
I ended up with 20 after a few tries. A 3 mile stretch on the first attempt also not one car, Just keep redoing if you have issues, it is just the random traffic patterns. There were more cars on my final attempt.
seems like there’s still some cheats on the leader boards. for example, the long distance run, i had the van maxed out basically the whole way apart from a tiny brake for a couple corners/traffic, still couldnt get close to the 3min 8 sec times. hell i was still 1.5 miles away by the time the timer showed that. also, for the quarry jump, just went thru the leader boards of the people above me like 1500 or so, all reasonable distances. mine was 1073ish, the rest ranged from that to 1200ish (still reasonable i think but barely) but the top 2 people showing jumps of 1300ish for 2nd and 1400 for first. even in my fastest cars and hitting it fast and perfect i think thats a stretch. idk could just be my opinion but still lol
Mainly because of licensing and manufacturers dont want their tires have worse stats than other brands, id theyd add brand tier models it would be purely cosmetic (like nfs heat)
They seem to have the difficulty level way off on this one. It’s far too easy to three star every event without even taking any shortcuts. Feels they’ve really dumbed down the last couple of businesses - the original ones and Top Gear were, generally, a much better challenge.

I found that if you use rewind too much in Package Relay you end up with fewer and fewer traffic cars. Most obviously at one point where I rewound to try again at two cars, and when I restarted one of the cars disappeared. Just try to avoid rewinding and you’ll find plenty of cars to near miss.
I went straight to the highway and drove on the opposite lane until I got 18 near misses (some got registered, some didn’t). After that, I went offroad directly to the destination marker. And I think I got 30 seconds (or more) to spare.
Slightly off-topic, I’d really love it, if they’d finally give as a ‘skip’ option in the cutscenes. The monologues are just so boring, long and professionally unfunny.
