Bug Info: After Auto-resuming the screen switches to the loading of the season (which i already did a few days before) then the map comes up with Haley saying about the new events. After this the game is at least playable whereas when the issue first happened control of the card was lost. Supposedly the fixed issues log showed this as being fixed itâs still happening. This time i lost my progress in one of the seasonal championships so i needed to start the 3 races again.
Platform: XBOX series x
Edition: (Premium
Account: (solo account)
Xbox Settings: (no parental controls, quick Resume is on)
Attempted fixes: (commented on previous forum post about it)
Content Update: Its been happening on the last 3 seasons with only slight improvement (as mentione above on the lack of control after the issue being fixed
Iâve been having this quick resume related problem, too. Itâs been happening for several weeks.
When you use Quick Resume you always get the âseason loadingâ screen, then the Haley âmap slammingâ bit (I do wish that was just taken out of the game entirely as itâs not needed when youâve got the Festival Playlist easily accessible).
The first week this quick resume related problem occurred youâd then have no control over the game (button inputs would do nothing), so youâd have to exit to Xbox menu, quit the game, and restart. However, that âno controlâ thing went away after that first week but the âseason loadingâ and âmap slamâ repetition has remained.
Iâve taken to not using quick resume to get around the problem, but itâs a bit annoying as QR is usually a very nice feature to get back into the action.
QR does seem to cause some issues across multiple games, though. Something inherent in how it works? Most of the time QR worked just fine in FH5, although it often has some issues at the beginning of each new playlist week (e.g. not loading smashables or cosmetic adjustments to the world) - so Iâve always done a fresh load up every Thursday from day one of getting the game.
Iâm on Series S.

Iâve been having issues with this since launch. Any time I use quick resume, I have to sit through the season loading screen, and then it shows me the back-up playlist events first before then making me sit through the season loading screen a second time, and then it shows me the actual playlist events for that week. I brought it up around launch, but the forumâs consensus at the time was basically âdeal with it.â I did deal with it. Always have and still do. Doesnât make it any less annoying every time I boot up the game. Not to mention the fact it defeats the purpose of quick resume. Horizon 2, 3, and 4 did not have this issue, so I donât know what Horizon 5 so special that this bug is not only a thing, but has persisted this long. Also, this problem has transcended different console generations. This issue occurred with my Xbox One and Xbox Series X, and it appears it affects the Series S as well.

Interesting that you experienced it on Xbox One, as that console doesnât have Quick Resume. So is it something inherent to the coding of the game, rather than necessarily being a conflict with the Quick Resume system on the Xbox Series consoles? HmmmâŠ
Do you still get this problem when you quit out of the game entirely (i.e. remove it from the quick resume list for a fresh start up)?
Iâve been playing the game since November 2022 and have had Quick Resume related issues on and off throughout that time (mostly not though), but this recent one has been consistent.
It only seems to affect the main game (from what Iâve experienced, at least) - Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure are both unaffected (so I can Quick Resume into either of those fine - but not the main game). SCRATCH THAT - it does affect the expansions, insofar as you get Season Loading (no map slam) - was just playing now and noticed it.

I believe the issue with Quick Resume relates to games that need a constant internet connection to access certain features.
Like the Playlist in FH5 needs a constant connection but due to how QR essentially puts a game to sleep it interrupts the connection cycle and thatâs why thereâs so many issues.

fair points but the key thing is that I played the game since it came out with no issues and suddenly there are issues the last few monthsâŠ

Yea there is definitely some issues with recent updates but I think theyâre kinda building off of existing problems with the QR infrastructure.
So I do think some patches might be able to mostly fix some of the more recent faults but I also think there will be some issues with QR that the devs cannot fix.
My Xbox One X does have quick resume, and it always causes problems with games, so to avoid this problem do this :
Exit FH5, start up another game, exit that, and go back into FH5, this will reload the game from the beginning, and it should work better, it takes a little longer to load in, but it`s clearly worth it.
@ManteoMax Is there any chance this Quick Resume bug could be fixed? Itâs been like it for months and months. You either have to sit through the season loading and the map over and over again, or immediately hit the Xbox button so you can exit the game and then start it again.
Just some feedback of what the issue is would be helpful.
Common enough with any game that needs a constant internet connection. Donât use quick resume.
It would be better if they just came out and said donât use QR
Ah, thanks!
I hadnât thought to check if you could turn off quick resume on a per game basis. Now done.
Whatâs annoying is that when FH5 came out, QR worked fine.
Edit: Ah, unfortunately removing it from QR only removes it that session. It doesnât permanently stop it using QR.
I am playing on a Forza Edition Xbox One console and it does it as well. At least since the supposed âfixâ the controller works when the âshowâ ends.

Yeah, itâd be good if they could fix this one. It came about with that notorious December 2023 update (Winter Wonderland) and got fixed pretty quickly (but the big crashing issues remained until earlier this year and were thankfully sorted out) - but in, what, May (?) this quick resume related problem came back again. Itâs annoying not being able to just âjump straight inâ to a session of FH5.
Itâs either sitting through all the warning messages and opening stuff, or âseason changingâ and that âmap slammingâ thing (I donât see why thatâs even needed at this point - you can see everything new each week via the Festival Playlist anyway).
