One thing I really hope so is there are lots of races in the game.
FH1 had so few races compared to FM4, and that made some of us finish the game in a really short time.
So, I am hoping this one has lots of tournaments , probably optionals, like FM4 (I haven’t played FM5, but I suppose it has a large number of races too).
Well, as quoted from an article at IGN:
“We have far more content than we’ve ever had before,” says Fulton. “More than 700 events across the world, contributing to, I think a conservative 100 percent completion time of well over 100 hours. We have absolutely packed this game with racing, with non-racing, with discovery, and the ability to just point your car in any direction and just explore. So that’s freedom.”

The source was IGN I believe.
-Edit: Dang ninjas…
I guess the real question is: how varied will these ‘700 events’ be? Though quantity is great, ensuring it isn’t a chore to tick a box for each and every race would be much appreciated.
I hope there won’t be repeat races fro different events like there were in FH1.
Anyway, these are great news! This game is heavily drawing in my decision on XOne or PS4.
700?? WOW I missed that one… amazing
there’s only like 100 something total with streets races and festival races in 1
just how big is this map! that’s mind boggling really
700 ain’t that much… It’s a big number, for some people…
They say there is 3 times as much road as in FH1. The map on FH1 could be crossed, diagonally, in roughly 10 minutes in a souped up car. Now, 3 times as many road doesn’t mean the map has to expand by the same amount.
Unsure what other games you played over your lifetime but I am guessing the “distance” on Test Drive 1 as well as GTA5 to cross the map is bigger than on Horizon 2.
700 events compared to 150 ish maybe in 1? That’s probably 4-5 times as many…
i’m sure the map won’t be the biggest in any game but the map better be a decent size bigger unless they just stack 10-20 missions on top of one another.
FH is a really short game, just like NFSC in that aspect. FM3 & FM4 both have at least 750 events to complete in single player.
Yup, you’re correct there; spent ages finishing the entire roster in FM. And ofcourse, Horizon should “unlock” stuff easier because you drive around, find races automatically whereas FM you needed to go back & forth, drive that same car or track over and over again.
100 hours - 4 24 days=96 hours.
