I think having an actual Nitrous upgrade added into Forza Horizon would be a nice way to spice up car upgrades and performance. It is portrayed realistically, not like how it is in Burnout or NFS, nor do I want it to be some kind of “meta” upgrade that every car needs to be good.
Here’s how I would balance NOS to keep Forza from turning into an NFS clone:
-only a small handful of cars can accept NOS (muscle and sportscars SOME supercars)
-NOS cannot be refilled unless you return to your house or a festival site
-NOS is restricted in Horizon events. Can only be used for Street Races and in freeroam
-Portrayed realistically, no massive drawn out flames, just spits of fire and some wheelspin
-Basically useless if you’re not on a straight line.
My only request with NOS is that only the players can use it. The Drivatars use enough imaginary NOS (also known as developer laziness) as it is.

There was NOS in FH2 Fast and Furious. It was wayyyy overpowered though. If they add it again I would like to see it portrayed a bit more realistic as well. In the FNF demo you’d spin the wheels uncontrollably to the highest speed achievable. I always ended up just tapping the nitrous button to somewhat keep control of the car.

Need for speed Heat has NOS and it’s a lot of fun.

My only request is that NOS can only be used by the boneshaker in a-class so that I can collect more Forza tears to bottle and sell.

Ability to purchase a Nitrous Oxide (NOS or N²O) kit in Upgrades & Tuning and use Nitrous Speed Boost which would have a similar effect as if the player drives through the Hot Wheels Speed Boost strips and replenish Nitrous after use in Upgrades & Tuning.

I just feel like the gameplay could change alot if this was implemented in the future

when the nitrous feature was introduced in FH2: Fast And Furious Edition, it was amazing! it could be useful in drag racing, smoke people in street races, or assist in reaching max speeds.

No thank you. The game is a mess already when it comes to AI and player behaviour. Having NOS in the game would make this worse…much, much worse!

NFSes, Crew games etc already have it. Let’s have just 1 game that’s not crap.

I think so too. The game should focus much more on race types where NOS is used like street races and drag racing

I think nitrous should be added to the game for just drag racing and street racing like nfs to make it more fun and interesting at the same time.

It would be really nice to have nitrous from FH2 return as an option for Blueprint creators to turn on or off. It being implemented this way would not mess with the existing meta in any way and allow for map makers to design specifically around nitrous being enabled, or not worry about it at all if disabled.
It was only in the fnf expansion for fh2
That’s still FH2. I’ve played it before and it was fun!
My idea is to allow Nitrous on all cars and it can only be used in freeroam
formula drift use NOS as instant anti lag, if your normal anti lag is in stand by the ecu uses NOS to replace the boost
