Forza Monthly livestream Dec. 4 | Series 28 & 29 preview

legit race and build team though, not really a promo and not fictional.

but rs200 and boneshaker kinda broke the game, to be fair

my Hoonigan rs200 cost 13 million, it took effort to get it, how it should be for meta cars. autoshow meta cars hurt FH5

Has anyone got a bug when loading the game? It will launch as normal, but always show 0/75 points. Then it will show the ‘Loading Winter’ season change screen, followed by Haley’s voiceover (different one each time) and the map populates with the current Playlist events. Then the correct points are shown in the playlist.

Also when I played yesterday, Winter wonderland wasn’t working, it just had the football field at the location. Once I’d done an event it was fine.

I got the same problem.

This has been happening to me since the game launched. Every time I quick resume, I have to sit through the whole rigmarole at least twice. Probably has to do with the game connecting to the internet. It’s still annoying as heck though, and Horizon 4 doesn’t suffer from this problem despite needing to connect to the internet upon quick resume too.

It seems a bug that’s in this series but it doesn’t happen regularly for me in past series. I’m on XSX and always remove Horizon games from quick resume before starting them. From what others have said about problems they’ve experienced with quick resume it seems likely to be contributing.

I never had problems with quick resume until the last update. I have a Series X too.

What’s the problem you’re having now with quick resume and this update? The season change cutscene happens the first time in freeroam each time the game is started for me but only with this update. This is happening once each time with it not being in quick resume.

Edit: the only problem I’ve experienced is that it took noticeably longer to sync whenever I started and didn’t take it out of QR. Just saying there’s been a lot of comments / conclusions about it here.

I suppose the extra loading screen is to do with the decision to call all weeks in Series 28 Winter. Instead of the usual Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring, for Series 28 we have Winter Week 1, Winter Week 2, Winter Week 3 and Winter Week 4. So the game starts and the extra loading screen probably has to override the fact that its not Summer. I can’t see a fix coming anytime soon and hopefully things will go back to normal in Series 29.

Sorry, should have said that the bug I mentioned is on PC, not using Xbox/Quick resume.
Only been happening with this update

I have had this issue on PC Steam version yesterday, first time i had logged on since Thursday, so i had the Winter season changeover then and again on Sunday

Waiting for all of the new weekly events to show up on the map was irritating before with the map panning one way, then another way, then back the first way…

Having to go through it every time the game launches now is really quite annoying. Once a week I could put up with but this seasonal update highlights how grating it can be.

This might not happen for all four weeks in this monthly update since at least one of them should naturally fall within the correct season, so that could be something to look forward to.

I suspect the QA Dept may have had their Christmas party the night before they tested this update :partying_face:

Well, like I mentioned. This has been a bug on the Xbox since the game launched. Not sure if I’ve been the only one, but I’ve dealt with this exact issue every time I resume the game. Submitted a ticket about it at launch, and nothing has been done about it, unless it’s solely a me issue that no else has had until now.

Hotfix yesterday has solved this problem for me

Excellent news! I saw it mentioned in the patch notes, surprised they got it fixed already. Good on ya, PGG!
