I can’t seem to find anything relating to this problem on the forums, so hopefully this isn’t a ‘re-posted issue’ (apologies if it is).
I have noticed this happening over the last two or three months, whereby the ‘introduction’ of the weekly seasonal on FH5 - when we are shown the map and the locations of the seasonal events ‘slam down’ into place with a voice over - repeats itself each time/most times when I return to my game. It’s very annoying and I’ve no idea why it’s happening. It wasn’t doing this when I first got the game, but like I said, it’s been at this now for a couple of months or so.
Also connected to this issue is a weird ‘false seasonal introduction’ that happens the first time you enter a new season. What happens is you get shown a festival playlist that has all the wrong events and car rewards etc listed with the only ‘prizes’ being wheelspins. This is accompanied by a similarly incorrect map showing the locations of these ‘false events’. Exiting out of that then leads to being shown the real weekly seasonal events.
I am playing on Xbox Series S and ‘quick resume’ when returning to my game. Quitting the game and restarting it doesn’t help as the above problems inevitably return.
Has anyone else experienced this and can it please get fixed?
I’ve been getting the same thing. Even after I completed all the quests a couple of weeks ago it slammed down the locations as if I hadn’t started it. It wouldn’t be so much of a problem except like all cut scenes in FH5 it is unskipable
When i open up the game and loads up everything, as soon as i exit from the house i am in, the same intro scene for the new season/events plays over and over and over, then it opens the map, the announcer says my name and blah blah blah and it marks some new races or challenges or whatever to me. It has done this 3 times already and i cannot skip it all, so i now have to wait twice the time to play the game from the initial load.
Please fix this, it is extremely annoying.
On top of that, the menus lag and stutter harder than ever, at least on PC, it’s actually horrible to navigate them, why this was never looked at?
I’m adding this as a separate report as I’m not experiencing any crashes at all and it’s just the cutscene replaying.
If you are experiencing crashes in relation to the above then I recommend this Bug Report instead.
Platform: Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC Steam + PC Microsoft Store have all been reported.
Basically whenever I play FH5 and load into the game it immediately replays the “Loading Winter Season” Cutscene even though I’ve already played during the season and have unlocked some progress.
After the cutscene finishes I load into my Player House and then when I exit into the Open World I get the Playlist Map Overview with Haley telling me about the Season and all the Events popping up on the map.
Again even though I’ve already completed most of those events.
It’s a bit frustrating as it adds some extra time wasted until I actually get to play the game.
It’s happened to me 4 times now. I also get a frozen screen when it goes back to free roam. I can’t move the car or anything other than screen capture or the Xbox home button to force quit and relaunch. To which, I have to go thru the whole season update and listen to Haley blah, blah, blah.
