Anyone else having an issue with freezing? I turned my game off and came back to play after a while. Started at a car meet and set my destination for my next event. While driving to it the game freezes at the exact same spot always. No cars can go beyond this spot. They still make noise. Day turns to night and vice versa. Car lights come on. But game is stuck. Can’t back up. Can’t go forward. Restart the console is the only fix but next time I get to the same spot, same thing. If it has anything to do with it I am a dashboard preview user and experience the forza 5 freezes. This is not cool at all.

Mine won’t even load. Gets to the Microsoft Studios logo, and it’s a black screen after that. Tried taking the disc out and putting it back in, turning the Xbox off and back on, and even tried re-installing the game.

Had the game freeze on me last night and similar thing. Exited the game and couldn’t get back in. Had to power cycle my x1 and then all was good again. Although i havent had it freeze again yet…but i also didn’t wind up doing the same thing again, as i didn’t have time then. Hope they get these problems fixed quickly. Btw i also have the preview…but after the terrible issues this month,i think I’m most likely getting out at the end of this cycle.
You and me both. This thing has just crippled my xbone (which rarely gets used).
What is an xbone?

Small suggestion, set your xbox to power save mode, dont use instant on. It will clear your cache every time you shut it off and games do run smoother.

I have had it freeze once. Right before it froze there were video glitches. The screen would freeze for a moment and then come back.
Is it jusr me or has anyone elses game freezes when doing the 3rd drive to the festival race. I know its the one from bottom left of map u end up driving part of the road that u did when racing the train. The only way i can get game to read is to hard reset xb1 console but then again about 30sec to a min after trying race again it crashes.
I have the same problen when driving to the festival from bottom left of the map race every time crashes after about 30sec of driving
Do you see a tunnel in the distance? I thought maybe it was just that part of the map, but I also got it when driving to do the dodge dart bucket list. So I decided to uninstall and reinstall. Not my best plan being its 36 gigs and taking its sweet time.
And whoever mentioned power save mode, thanks, but I already use it. Have been since I heard of people having upnp issues with instant on. Ever since then no upnp of Nat issues but LOTS of freezing issues. Pretty sure they’re preview related though, not anything to do with power save or my console.
I fired up the game for the first time about 10 minutes ago, I have the digital version. I got through about half of the first event when you drive the Huracan to the Festival and the game froze.
I had some seriuos issues during the first Championship race in Castelleto - whenever I restarted the race, the box (One) froze and I had to reboot it. After finishing this race I had no more problems. I am Level 22 now.
First, I want to say that Horizon 2 is a great game. Despite being one of the many who hasn’t yet received the VIP benefits, I have really enjoyed the game so far. However, there are a few bugs that I’ve encountered (to be expected of any game after it’s released), and I haven’t seen anything about it in the forums yet.
One of the more serious ones is that the game has caused my system to freeze several times during loading screens or when trying to restart an event. The only way to fix it is to do a hard reset, which can be pretty frustrating. I’m thinking that it’s just me though, because I figured that someone else would have brought it up by now.
I also wish that I could sell cars in my garage instead of just removing them, but I’m not surprised it was left out since they removed the feature in FM5. It would be nice to be able to get some money for the Z4 that I’ll never drive again, but I guess there are worse things.
Freezing has happened to a few on the gamefaqs website to, same scenario, race resart. My advice is back out from the event and then start it until they fix it.
When I selected restart from some of the earlier races after the game launched, FH2 hung for about 1 minute before going to voice and video loop before it crashed…totally shutting down Xbox One - this happened to me 3 times today…until I finally decided not to use that buggy feature. Later on as the game progressed I encountered a reverse infinite loop - after triggering the initial reverse, the game simply kept on reversing to the limit, then stopped but the reverse sound continued…I had to start FM5 then restart FH2. There are bugs that need to addressed here.

Was just about to post that here Max 
But yes, if you’re experiencing freezing could you please let us know whether or not you are part of the beta dash programme or not as well please.
