Festival Playlist voting | S47: Horizon Rush Takeover vs Midnights at Horizon


To rid myself of any further temptations to play this abandonware, I’ve spent all my credits and removed over 700 cars from my garage (you cannot remove barn finds oddly enough). This has been a pretty cool community but unfortunately the way this game is handled at the corporate level, Forza may as well be owned by EA or Ubisoft at this point. I heavily encourage you all to not purchase Horizon 6. Take care, everyone!

That would be great to start over with the playlists,not only for the PS5 newcomers but also for the players that didnt complete them to get the hard to find cars.The backstage pass cars,well some of them,are hardly hard to find in the AH.Im missing about 18 or so cars to collect from playlists.

The whole voting thing is a bust. we discovered that in FH4 when voting for backstage cars. It’s only there to force engagement in an otherwise abandoned game

I said it back then and I’ll say it now, the best way to do this for the community is to add all hard to find cars into the autoshow or backstage and let players buy what they have missing whether it be with credits of backstage passes

The playlist vote is likely to be heavily determined by game pass players who typically make up the bulk of the player base. These casual players are typically not as well informed or passionate about the game as those of us here on the forums so pick whatever looks fastest or most shiny without examining what they are voting for

Yeah situations like this are exactly why I wish the losing playlist theme was carried over to the next vote, instead of being given two entirely different themes to vote on. Same with the losing pair of backstage cars, just carry them over to next week instead of giving us two entirely different pairs to vote on each week. Because god knows when Horizon Rush will be up for voting again, it certainly won’t be anytime soon.

Honestly it never made sense to me that we can obtain two passes every week yet we can only redeem 1 pass per car. I understand that letting players redeem as many instances of a car as they want would lead to players exploiting the backstage by mass selling the cars on the auction house (thus players would just grind for credits instead of passes), but the solution there would simply be to link backstage cars to your account like with autoshow cars bought with vouchers so you can’t auction or gift them. Being able to redeem duplicates from the backstage would be so much handier than having to waste hours on the auction house.

I totally agree with you. Voting system is a total failure. PGG should put all hard to find cars into backstage and redo all the playlists from series 1.

When I think back, how many years we waited and asked PGG to add in forzatlon shop last 4 Preorder cars in FH4 that many missed in rare forzatlon shops from game first year, we finally got them at the end of the game’s lifespan.

I’m afraid, that we never have another chance to vote or play Horizon Rush Takeover playlist again, with the current voting system and number of festival playlists at least another two years.

STEVIO2175 betrayed our hope :rofl:

Already said that, that’s literally one of my main criticisms of the backstage system.

In that case, you’ve already answered your own question:

We get 2 Backstage cars added each season, therefore, we have the opportunity to get 2 passes, one for each new Backstage car. In this case, it is not assumed that you will spend both Backstage passes on the same car. Having 2 passes just means that players can pick up 2 different Backstage Cars in every season.
Yes, I have seen what alternative you propose, but unfortunately, they are unlikely to change anything, the only thing they can do is to take into account all reasonable proposals and try to implement them in the future in FH(6).

yeah I know that you can get through the forzashop.

Wow this will be awkward…

So as we all know when it’s a series like the current one that was originally pre-RA they’re throwing seasonal championships in from seasons after it did release, and this week’s is Rally, Set, Go, B700 Pickups and 4x4’s starting on Arzate Sprint.

Guess where that is from?

The very 1st week of Midnights :man_facepalming:

Lol woops

Anyway totally agree with voting just being a “this one gets added first” thing

oops. i wonder if this will get changed. slight oversight you could say
