Forza Horizon 4 Features Wish List

Forza Horizon Legacy Horizon FH4 Discussion
1488

I’ll second any requests for improved garage management and more car slots. At this point there’s actually more cars in the game than there are garage slots according to the KudosPrime car list (Cars List | Forza Horizon 4 | kudosprime.com) with 566 cars, but only 550 garage slots.

This, along with the even lower custom paint limits, are just ridiculous, especially given that this is a high profile AAA game.

To top it all off, we have the wheelspin penalty (not reward since it’s worse than getting nothing) of duplicate worthless cars that are automatically added to our garage whether we want them or not so we the have to waste time going back through the not-great UI to find and remove the offending vehicle.

The poor garage UI makes finding a specific vehicle (especially duplicates) much more of a pain than it should be, so I would like to see an option to easily find duplicates. Additionally, it would be awesome to have more tags to assign to vehicles so I can easily organize them. Tag ideas could be race type (road/dirt/cross country/drag), skills, drift, danger signs, etc (or better yet, add an option for custom tag names).

While collecting vehicles, I’ve been spending a lot of time in the AH and the interface there is just bad. I spend far too much time jumping back and forth between the autoshow to see what vehicles I still need to collect and their values and having to reenter my AH search query. With a few small changes like having the AH use a similar menu to the garage/autoshow to easily show all the available vehicles, and also showing ownership status and autoshow value, this could be much less painful.

Anyways, here’s my feature requests:

  1. MUCH higher garage limits (1000+ cars)
  2. MUCH higher paint limits (same as garage limit so each car can have a custom paintjob if desired)
  3. Ability to sell duplicate wheelspin cars at half price like in FH3
  4. Ability to automatically find duplicate vehicles in garage
  5. Ability to assign a variety of tags to cars similar to what we can with shared tunes and paints instead of just the lone favorites option
  6. Add ability to see autoshow value and ownership status of vehicles in the AH so I’m not constantly having to go back and forth
  7. Autoshow/garage style filterable/sortable menu for selecting AH vehicles instead of the clunky text menu

I am position 8325… with a score of 1323 from 53 wins and 45 losses. Our team won one last night and I went up by TWO ranking points. Two. And I had personally done well in the round as well (I don’t know if personal performance has ANY bearing on scoring though?)

Yet I see others in the leaderboards with hardly any wins who are way above me. Isn’t it reset each month?

At the very least, I would ask PG to please explain the scoring system at some point, in crystal clear plain English that everyone can understand. Ideally this would be done in-game somehow, as part of a tutorial everyone has to go through before they play.

edit - I just played another match and we won 3-2. My score went up by 10 points to 1333. Then played another, we lost 3-1, score went down 7 points.

How on earth you are supposed to reach the top ranks, is totally beyond my understanding. Must you play thousands of matches to do it?

edit 2 - I found this thread with someone asking how it works. A Forza staff member CLOSED the thread and said it had been answered. IT HASN’T!

https://forums.forza.net/turn10_postst140405p3_Team-Adventure---Please-Explain-How-it-Works.aspx?=

No it wasn’t answered. It got others speculating on how it might work but nobody knows for sure.

When the scoring system is so hard to understand as this one is, it needs to be explained, not just something vague like your score goes up or down depending on how you do.

Another round just now… lost 3-2. Score went down by 48 points. So you win and it goes up by a tiny amount, you lose you get hammered. Is this fair. Does anyone think this is fair. No, nobody thinks this is fair.

I would love to see a mini expansion with the cities from the Midtown Madness games. I don’t mean those cities recreated to the standards of FH4, I just mean bring in the existing models and textures, scale them appropriately, and let us play with FH4 cars and physics in a world never meant for them. Bonus points if the cars from those games were made available either in FH4 quality or MM quality (I know this is highly unlikely due to licensing, but I can dream).

So I play fh4 because it lets me take any car I want and drive the race I want. I can even make my own race now. I have one goal in this game since the beginning, and that was to own, upgrade, and tune every single car in the game. Just to say that I did it and share my time with everyone else that plays. I’m up to 418 cars owned and 200 tunes saved at the moment. I was at 299 tunes but then I discovered that’s all I could save and share. So I trimmed down the list to only one tune for every car I’ve driven and got down to 200, but that means 99 cars from now I can’t save or share anymore. Now I can still upgrade and tune each car, and it will stay that way until I change it, but the one thing I hope to see is the ability to save and share at least as many tunes as there are cars.

TLDR please increase the number of tunes you can save. Also the number of decals, cause the community makes awesome decal set ups I want to put on all my cars too.

Rivals
keep old rivals but also add every class with it like d c b a s1 s2 x

ability to do group rival?
would be cool to have players from your own club or friend list being able to create a session to do rivals together?

Convoy Racing issues
Lobby starting up very often fails or does not start at all and players very often dc/kick from lobby

Convoy racing car selection timer is at 20 seconds and its far to low to be able to select a car
please increase this to 45 seconds or 1min

Custom Blue Print Suggestions
the blue print creator should be able to select his own car with his tune for the races
if i wanna make a nascar track and limit it to a specific tune i have made there is no way to do this

Blue Prints Searching?
might get fixed in the patch 15th jan?

Route creator suggestions editing-props
allow the ability to edit race lines and edit check points?
add or remove objects in game?

#relevant suggestion for car selection
Car Selection Filter
having the same ability to favorite cars but to (add them into a Rally-Road-Cross country- Winter
i have 550 cars and its impossible to scroll pass them to find the right car but if i had the ability to put the cars into these filters then search for these filters as in (favorite) it would work a lot smoother

Auction House issues

cars not having a realistic sell price
some cars are very rare wheel spin drop only but the auction house price limit prevents players from even selling them since its so insanely low and unfairly priced
so please lets fix this

Legendary Painter/tuner Status having the ability to sell cars for 20million is just getting abused and its so bad for the game it just gives a few players full monopoly over the market
what they players who has gotten this statue ends up doing is buying out every single car from a old forzathon that (we can only sell for 100k or 500k) and he buys out every single one and then resells them for 20 million and if more players keep selling he just buys out every single one of them to give someone this ability is to much and its not good for the game

how to fix this = rework the prices on the wheelspin only cars
remove the 20 million sale ability from legendary statue tuners/painters

game starting up sound? to loud please give us the setting to turn it off
the sound is annoying and very loud it goes to the (red mark =way to loud) on the obs streaming software

also fix the issue of the settings in game resetting when restarting/closing the game
if i put Streamer mode on i don’t want it to turn off every time i close the game
there is a reason why i have it on and i don’t want to redo this every time the game starts
fps limit also resets to 29 fps lock for some reason please remove this also its insanely laggy and hard to do anything when the fps is that low on a pc and it just triggers me having to do this every time…

Streaming issue Capturing Game PC = Obs - Xsplit - Streamlabs OBS etc…
the devs of these software has already tweeted the issue long to you guys long ago but still nothing has been done so please fix has been over 100 days since release
Game capture instantly crashes the game
Window Capture gets no video but audio works? i think
this is not a reasonable way to stream display capture)
its bad quality and very laggy and it display everything on the entire screen possibly leaking or showing things you don’t want
and its very unprofessionally when you cant even alt tab or do anything on the pc without it showing the desktop…

also my guess is that 80-90% of the streamers use obs

so please fix the ability to use Game Capture + Window Capture so we can stream the game without any issues

Dear PG this is the most important feature they need to be fixed or added to FH4 as soon as possible:

1.Online:
-Devs please add Solo Ranked Online Championship/Adventure based on points system as in Seasonal Championships (1st 20points,2nd 16p,3rd 14p…,and maybe points for clean racing because in online races there is a lot of rammers,noobs so maybe this help) for every car class in game (S2,S1,A,B,C,D,)and voting system similar to this in FH3. Online Championships should be include only races (4 or 5) and maybe 2 option to choose for players: Fast Online Championship (only S2,S1,A class) and Slow(B,C,D class).

-Remove Freeroam Rush from online because is boring, not fun and based on luck.

-Fix wall riding, is so annoying and destroy online racing, Johnson Racing video on yt. shows this big problem perfectly.There are so many barriers and walls in races,players don’t need them,just leave the most needed and the rest remove.In FH3 wall riding not existed.

-PG add option to choose Traction Control turn on/off before 1st race in online championships especially in S2,S1 adventure because I and many people don’t like swap every car to AWD so use RWD tunes and this cars needs TCS on in higher classes,without is hard to control those cars.In FH3 we have option to change difficulty settings in online championship.This option is most important.

-Remove from online S2 cross country races and S2 dirt/rally races because cars in S2 class have to much power for this type of races,they are hard to control.Dirt races is so much chaotic in online so please remove them.

-Races are too short in online.One race should be 4/5 min. long or little more not 1,5 or 2 min.,so please add to online adventure races like Goliath(S2,S1),Colossus etc., more laps for circuit races and new races. Forza players create so good longer sprint and circuit races.If you added the best races from community to online adventure, that would be so great and fresh for online experience in FH4.

2.Sound of cars engine:
-Change the Viper sounds,only Formula D Viper sounds acceptable.
-Change sounds of Honda:older Civic’s,CRX,Acura Integra they are sounds so annoying.
-Some Audi sounds terrible: RS4 '01 sounds like 2.9L,3.2L VR6 from Volkswagen,TTS and S1 sounds more like V-tec Honda.
-Subaru sounds good on low revs but on higher revs sound so awful, change this please.
-Volvo V60,S60 sounds like Toyota Supra in FH3 change this.
-Nissan Skyline R 34,R 33,R 32 and Silvia’s sounds terrible.
-Lamborghini Gallardo,Huracan.Gallardo sounds so good in FH3.
-Mazda RX7,RX7 Savanna,RX8 (RX8 sounds like a herd of mosquitoes).
There are probably more engine sound to fixed but I did not drive every car in game.

3.Game generally:
-PG add option to have units like this: kilograms(weight),km/h(speed),Nm(torque) and HP(horsepower) in the same time not KW(kilowatts), because I like tune/build cars in Forza and this KW are annoying.I’m from Europe and my country use this units.Same in FM7.

-Rivals mode for every tracks and car class in game.

-More places for cars in garage maybe about 1000.

-Add Online Adventure on Fortune Island.This expansion have so good races so I don’t no why online adventure is not there?

I am huge fan of Forza Horizon/Motorsports,play this games since FM3 comes out.I like tune cars and racing online with other players, that’s why online is most important for me. FH4 have big potential but is so disappointing at this moment.I hope you fix every problems in this game.Anyway thanks for reading this post I know is long;)

Streamlining car management

-Getting rid of excess cars: Really need an option to sell unwanted cars back to ‘the house’ for 50% credit just like older Forza titles, not just delete it into oblivion to make space. Even if it’s a ‘gift’ car that used to be worth 200cr, at least you got some value from the upgrades. Especially with no discount system.

-Auction house: I have a bunch of complaints, from the time it takes to get up a window to bid, to how every auction has ended by the time you go back one screen, to how the search is horrific and slow, JUST MAKE IT LIKE FM4 WAS!, it was perfection in that game. It would be a huge leap forward to go BACK to the way it was 3 titles ago. Also, the inability to set higher prices unless you sell 50,000 designs and tunes is just idiotic. What on earth does that have to do with selling cars for everyone else(and I’m an old painter from FM4, with a full garage and half a billion credits back in the day, but also maxed out all the driving levels as well, the game was just THAT good). Let the players themselves determine the’ value’ of anything in the AH. At the very least it would help deal with excess cars as per issue 1 above… Again with no discount system, you can easily have more in parts then the highest price they’ll let you sell something in the AH.

-Tunes and paint: same as auction house, make it the same way to find and sort paints/tunes as FM4. You have to search the internet for paints, track down the creator, and then go in the game to try to find it in-game. It’s also idiotic. Pretty much have to put in the same amount of effort as a real estate agent online just to get there in a game. Of course unless you were one of the few who first got the game and just painted everything in metal flake on day one.

-Allow importing of paints/groups from earlier titles. I heard all these stories of how much different the Xbone game was that it couldn’t be done, but it’s the SAME exact paint system they’ve always had, not even any new shapes or colors for vinyl. Everything in the older games is still sitting in the design house. I have 400 hours in painting in earlier 360 FM/FH titles, not going to do it all again for this game.

Just rolling these things back to FM4’s model would make this game so much better at managing cars in your garage. T10 is trying too hard

Any chance of disabling rewind for online races. It’s useless and I’ve found I’ve accidentally hit it when trying to change down quickly a few times. As soon as you do this, you’re essentially guaranteed to finish last. I know we can disable it ourselves and I do, but sometimes I will re-enable it if I am doing an offline race against higher level AI, and don’t want a single error to mean a restart. And then I tend to forget to turn it off afterwards.

AFAIK this is the first Forza game where rewind has worked online and I don’t know if it’s an oversight or mistake but it seems pointless and counterproductive even. If it at least worked well, it’d be something, but it’s so slow and doesn’t put you back in a good place, so it’s worse than useless.

I have a simple suggestion which would be easy to implement and I think would please a lot of people.

As you know, it can take a while to find a ranked online adventure. During the waiting period I usually earn skill points for something to do. When there are 12 players ready, you LOSE your skill points. It can be rather disheartening if you’ve built up a few hundred thousand. You get the ‘broken skill chain’ animation the same as if you’ve hit something. Could you please instead award us these points.

Given it can be hard to get enough players sometimes anyway, you don’t want to be doing anything to further penalise and deter people for joining a match. Who knows if sometimes people have a big skill chain ready to be banked, they see the message to click to join, and they decide not to click it, so they don’t lose their points?

Another thing…

Am I the only one who sometimes gets disorientated and loses where the destination is, in freeroam rush? This is quite easy to do when the destination ‘marker’ in the sky is hidden and obscured by trees or mountains. What about putting a marker on the outer edge of the minimap which shows which direction it’s in at all times? I know the minimap shows which ROADS will get you there, but of course that is not necessarily the way you want to be going.

hey guys? since this game STILL crashes to dashboard every other time a forzathon starts, could you maybe let me skip past the splash screen so i actually have a shot of loading the game again, BEFORE the cutoff??? because i could probably still make it into that forzathon if i didn’t have to set through 40 seconds of TURN 10 STUDIOS MICROSOFT every. single. time. since fixing the crashes is off the table can i ask this simple compromise?

please? can you please keep the wasted time to a minimum? or maybe get it to stop crashing at critical moments lol

  • Convertible bits of the cars to actually work.
  • Forza edition Filter in the garage
  • An actual Race Track on the map. I enjoy the whole open world thing but that would be nice.
