Inaccessible Bonus Board locations and tips

Progress some danger signs and a ramp will spawn if it’s not there already, it’s a pain to get as you have to race through some more concrete tubes to get to the ramp. So building speed can be tricky and then when you hit the ramp aim to the left a bit. If you get enough speed to be close but not quite there, use rewind to have another go at it, without too much messing about.

Does nobody read the thread before asking the same questions over and over again?

Maybe a quick FAQ for the 4 or 5 really tricky signs could be pinned in the forum.

Obviously not. :slight_smile:

Chances are half the posts in this thread have been merged from other similar topics so they wouldn’t have seen the multitude of replies above them (but yes, people tend to not search before posting up new questions).

The bonus board system in FH4 is pretty disappointing. First, the “fast travel” boards only provide fast travel to two locations: the Horizon Center and a player’s “home property.” I expected to be able to hop around the map with ease, but that’s not happening.

The other bonus boards are fraught with gimmickry rather than depending on truly skillful driving, but after the Lego features of FH3, I’m not surprised. I hope Forza 8 (should there ever be one) will go back to the skill driving of Forza 4 and 5 with emphasis on skill and tuning rather than speed, crashes, and gimmicks. It’s obvious that emphasis is being placed on features that appeal to junior high school boys rather than the larger driving community.

The fast travel boards reduce the cost of fast travelling incrementally (decrementally?) to 0 once all of them are unlocked. Buying the 2,000,000 mansion will allow you to travel anywhere on the map. You can buy this mansion at anytime and travel anywhere but you will pay for the travel an amount which depends on how many fast travel boards you have unlocked.

It was a similar scenareo in FH3 with a perk needing to be unlocked before unrestricted travel was allowed.

The mansion gives you 10 mega wheelspins also which in my case gave me 800,000 credits back a few cars, and some useless clothes / horn sounds.

HTH, Rigpig.

One of the houses unlocks the fast travel anywhere ability. The boards just reduce the price per use.

Vehicle I have used through forz horizon 3 and now four to get all the boards is a fully upgraded ford raptor you need to progress in the danger sign rank to unlock ramps needs to get all the boards. Rewind and slight angle adjustments and you’ll get them all

Im having the same issue with the one at the center part of the forest just right of greendale airstrip and under arthurs seat as well as the one on top of the church and the board in middle of mudkickers

I finally got my last bounty board today so the achievement is done for me. some of those roof boards were tricky to get the speed just right.

I managed to get most of the boards, 6 to go and 4 of these I get the idea how to pop them, it’s just my lack of skill and/or luck that prevents me of getting them. But the last two I don’t even have a clue on how to get near these boards. The two trouble makers in question are:

  • Just south of Derwent Water and outside Ambleside. It’s on the house, the house is inside a tight bend but there are no real hills or crests big enough for me to get on that roof. I tried it from the north side as there is a slight hill but it kinda goes flat before the top and therefore the jumps were rather lackluster. Only Santa knows how to get on that house.
  • Next to the Moorhead Wind Farm beauty spot and not far from the Mam Tor danger sign, also on a roof. Same problem as with the other one - absolutely no idea where to find a ramp or hill big enough to get on the roof of that house the board is on.

Thanks in advance for any helpful tips and suggestions!

Instead of coming at the house flat, come from the side

As already stated, come up out of the valley

So glad I read in here as I’m on my last board, the top of the pipes.
Just spent 20 minutes trying to mount a church…!!

It’s that small incline from the north. Destroy the walls and bushes both sides of the road to form a path and aim next to the tree. I’ts probably the hardest one to get. Don’t forget to spam rewind.

Start in the valley to the east IIRC. Highlight the board on the map so you know where to aim.

I did both with a fully upgraded AWD Ariel Nomad.

I tried out using the Ariel Nomad like you said and it was a life saver! I’ve been using it for all of the difficult signs that are up on top of buildings and such. Thanks so much for suggesting it, I also recommend it to everyone having trouble with these signs, plus it’s just a fun car to off-road with.

Ok, thanks! I’ll buy and upgrade the Nomad first and see what’s what :slight_smile:

You can do these in SUVs too as long as they are awd, near max power, and rally suspension upgrades. The more bouncy it feels, the better.

I finished mine with one of the FE buggies. I think it was the penhall or whatever it’s called.

For some of the jumps I even used an x999 awd senna. The car doesn’t have really suspension but it gets good air time. The front end likes to lift up which is good for clearance.

And thanks to you guys and a few danger leaps I have nailed the boards all before my late shift at work!!!
Now to hand the TV back to the wife :slight_smile:

There are some glitches, I had a blue board on the rail in the NW of the map, I don’t see it anywhere. I get the drone out and see it smashed on the railway wall. I drive down the rail line again and this time it is fixed and sitting on the line so I can hit it again and turn it gray. Seeing it with the drone seems to have reset it.

I have 199/200 bonus boards however this one bonus board is glitched for me I’ve waited through all 4 seasons quit the game all that stuff before and after the recent update but this board just doesn’t appear was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem i am the board is south east of the swan dive danger sign (influence board)
