I did the trial three times last night for fun…don’t think I ended up in a room where people in untuned/upgraded cars weren’t doing like 250 mph. The glitchers are strong this week. Tried again earlier…had someone in a 917 doing warp speed and invisible. I suspect the trio trial is going to be next week since these events are recycled now. Would really l ike a return to a class for a couple weeks or a dirt event at least.

Shout-outs to the magical rank 10 level 2,999 player in my Trial yesterday who picked a car 80 PI under the limit and finished almost dead last in two out of the three races. Surely one of the players of all time.

So where is S66?

I literally just got FH4 as part of the Game Pass Core set of titles, and I notice that there isn’t a forum post for S66 yet, even though it started days ago…

‘more to come in Series 66’?

Where is it?

All of these FH4 series are now all repeats of older ones, there is nothing new unfortunately.
Max posts the season updates for FH5 as that’s the current title - FH4 series posts are occasional rather than regular, unfortunately.

If you search the forum for the title of the Trial for the current series, it should (“should”) bring the original series post up to see what tunes etc. were shared at the time. :slight_smile:

Was there a lancia eligible for the trial this week? Or just the Audi?

Fyi, 3rd event in trial is Goliath in winter

The Peugeot qnd Lancia are eligible. I used the Lancia. It’s a fun winter trial imo.

Ah cheers. Guy in the lancia destroyed us in the three events so was curious. I must stop using the playlist screen to check for trial cars

The Lancia and Peugeot have to be tuned to be in B class. I used a 037 Lancia with a waznewz tune. All three are solid cars.

Another note about the season is the power struggle championship. It starts at Derwent Valley Dash but for me at least isn’t on the map. Here’s its loc if anyone has issues… Winter tune shared for the bimmer I’m using.

Nothing new to you, perhaps, but it’s new to me (and many other players) as stated before and I didn’t want to seem annoying by repeating myself, but I just got FH4 since they just had an entirely new influx of players due to the Game Pass Core bundling.

So yeah, I’m asking where is Series 66? Considering the ‘photos are provided by Forza’s media team’, and if it weren’t for some particular Forza team out there, it wouldn’t have even been included in Game Pass Core, so I’m just asking for more information, as I’ve only had the game about 2.5 weeks…

Edit: After checking yet a second time in-game, Series 66 doesn’t even show up yet in the Series Playlist History.

My question is, why? (Considering FH4 was only just recently added to Game Pass Core)

My reasoning comes from behind the fact that I have actually been considering purchasing several different car packs as well as the VIP, but now at this point I don’t know if it’s worth it anymore since it appears that they could be ceasing covering active Series exactly the same week that it was added to Game Pass Core?

I sure hope not. (This is literally the determining factor as to whether I’m going to spend any money on this supposedly-amazing game, that I’m recently discovering has a lot of cheaters ruining the leaderboards.)

Interesting marketing tactic, indeed.

We’re currently in Series 66, in the winter season. It’ll end in about a week and a half. Only past series show up in the Playlist History section, so that’s why you don’t see it there yet. There have been no announcements about the playlist cycle stopping after this series, so I would expect that we’ll get another repeat series after this one is over.

So back to the original question, why is there no forum post for S66? Why are we having to discuss this in a S65 thread?

I just feel that a lapse of social media presence and PR right after a new wave of first-time players isn’t a very appropriate when it comes to helping people have a good experience that they want revenue from in light of so many cheaters making the experience even less pleasant.

Not to mention the fact that one of the Seasonal challenges (Power Struggle championship) specifically for S66 still doesn’t show up on the map despite the error existing for 1-2 years, to the point where I had to do my own detective work and find a YT video that explains that it was just hidden on the map and can still be triggered by going to that location.

Very frustrating.

No bs pass for 50% of series. Boo.

Also don’t think I even got the Audi for winning the trial. Have it already but still.

And no bs pass for the season.

Sighs. Well aware it won’t be fixed but still doesn’t change it being a poor decision

And pgg has frozen after game 1. Ugh. Took long enough to find a game. Why do I bother. Nope, 10 mins later it continued to win screen

I assume pgg is hosted by PGG servers. Wow are they awful in fh4. Started 3v3. Game hung after first event. Lost 2 drivers cos of a 10 minute wait for game to continue. Every event after the game hung and we ended up 2v1 for the 4th event.

Given fh4 is on GP core you’d think there would some fixes still coming

The Audi isn’t the prize, it’s the All About Me emote. Otherwise yeah, there’s a lot of patience involved in the game.

I think there has to be some limit to the passes. Seems newer accounts get them. Did you just run into this now?

I’ve had the pass issue on and off since I got back into fh4 seasonals. For the most I was receiving them, this would be the first time I got neither of the two on offer.

Oh well.
