FH5 Rally Adventure expansion now available

So it’s almost half past when Rally Adventure was supposed to go live, and yet after 20 minutes of bashing the X button, restarting the game and my Xbox Series S, and checking for updates. Still nothing. All I get is the trailer and a prompt to buy the game from the marketplace. But when I follow all the prompts to go and buy it, it says without a doubt that I already own it. Hmmmm… Any suggestions???

It is saying the same thing on the Xbox Series X, I preordered the expansion only and when I try to download it, it only load a 10mb expansion when i can upload a 18gb for the expansion. Why is this going on?

See the release time in the first post. I don’t believe we said anywhere that it would be available now. 11am Pacific hasn’t happened yet.

Cool. so over 24 hours of the game being broken for me, and I won’t be able to play it until after I go to work, and I won’t be able to play the game until next week due to my work schedule. This little mistake cost me the one day I have to get things done on the weekly stuff…

DLC is allegedly installed but keeps looping to purchase page and shows trailer over and over, and no way to exit… what a pile of trash

Same for me. Thought i was going insane.

@PhoenixCat81 does this keep happening after closing the game and restarting your device and then trying to play anywhere else but entering the DLC menu?

Just making sure you’re not trying to play the DLC before its available time.

made pre order and can not play. After trailer it ask the to buy, later shows me that I already own the game and after that I get market place error “An error occurred. Please try again later.” Got in contact with Microsoft and trying all troubleshoots this is the answer:

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that all the troubleshooting do not seem to work, in this case it is preferable to check the game developer support or to request a refund for the Durable , it seems like there is an issue with the game license.

the reason why the developer will help is that they have access to Their own servers, therefore provide you with all the troubleshooting that you can perform inside the game to unlock the durable.

Unfortunately we do not have access to the game servers to provide you with these troubleshooting, nor able to assist you with them since access is not authorized for us.

For issues with not being able to play right now:

STEAM PLAYERS

Yesterday we mistakenly released the wrong build of Forza Horizon 5 on Steam, and were able to recall it shortly after release. For the small number of players who had downloaded this build, accessed it, and then installed the rollback, unfortunately this means that you will be unable to access the game on Steam until the Rally Adventure release.

ALL OTHER PLAYERS

You should be able to play the full game right now normally except for the Rally Adventure Expansion. The expansion will need to be downloaded after 11:00 a.m Pacific / 18:00 UTC. This is a target time for the start of the global rollout; some players may have a delay on the download availability, so we’re not guaranteeing that exact time. As of the time of this post we’re still 90 minutes away from the expansion launch.

According to Steam forums, a lot of players can’t access the game after the update and they didn’t even play the rally adventure.

Also, why are we being punished for something that devs screwed up?

11:00 AM? For god’s sake I thought it was 10:00.

Weird that it has over 1000 people in scores on first mission when its not out yet :thinking: and that you have to find a forum or any other info outside the game to find out its not working yet.

When i started the game the first thing it directed me to was rally expansion but that was only a trailer for the expansion with no more info other than i need to install it, wich my xbox says it is.

Ingame the voice said the whole day to your customers: Rally is here, lets go there!!1
Result, many many players get confused.
But hey, threre is a post in a forum somewhere and a short text in a xbox app, that not everybody uses…
This is how to create a problem because of bad communication 101.

IT’S HAPPENING IT’S HAPPENING

FOUR MORE MINUTES

HOW DID IT INSTALL IN TWO SECONDS

Can see the 18gb file but so far clicking on install just does 10mb and doesn’t install.

See how it goes…
