The thing I like least is the character design. If they have characters I want to be able to make up a face like Harley Quinn, or the joker with multiple hair styles, and faces. Just have a head, change the face, change the hair colour, change the skin colour… etc. So far it’s worse than FH4.
Rocks. Random rocks all over the place that fling your car up in the air, fling it at trees, spin it round, and generally ruin your gaming experience. Rocks that appear out of nowhere with no warning to malicious kill skill chains. Rocks that lurk in rivers like crocodiles waiting to snap at you.
I wouldn’t be at all surprised to learn that Mexico means “land of rocks”.
But I also have some experience of DaReoCharmer’s logs, which behave like rocks.
I dislike that bugs from fh4 were carried across to fh5.
I dislike how unbeatable difficulty isn’t difficult for me personally. They need to add a god mode or something.
I dislike eliminator in fh5 compared to fh4. I feel the fh4 map suited eliminator wayyy better and that in fh5 it’s really boring and u just drive in a straight line and dodge the odd opstacle.
I dislike how the trick to 3 star most stories is to take the 1 shortcut that exists opposed to how well u drive.
I dislike how strange ramming other cars is in fh5. It feels like bumper cars. It’s really weird and unrealistic.
I dislike how bad a job the QA testers did of this game leading up to the release.
I dislike how they nerfed the afk exploit. Shouldn’t have existed go begin with but since it took so long to fix why bother… People already took advantage of it.
Lastly… I dislike the lack of replayability in this fh5 at present. I love Forza but I see myself any many other quitting soon due to lack of replayable content unless they reintroduced features back from fh4 that should never have been removed.
Nearly 50 thousand hours in FH4, I was completely burnt out on that game. I don’t see myself going back but I may or may not be playing this game that long either. Not in its current state anyway.
He might have miscalculated a bit, I think it’s closer to 11,000. I see I have 3,550 hours played (plus 215 on my alt). Also I have completed over 4,000 online adventures and nearly 1,000 rounds of Eliminator on my main account.
Sorry sorry! Not 50 thousand, nearly 25000. FN I didn’t only have 1 alt, had 7 or 8 lol that’s what happens when you have to wait an extra year between a new Forza title. Still way too many hours spent on one game, that’s why I chose to play something other than Forza games leading up to this release. A 3 month break was needed to recharge my batteries.
Anon I don’t know if they’ll ever add ranked to this game but it would ensure I’d play for at least 10000 hours on this new game.
That is physically impossible. There have only been 27,594 hours since FH4 has been released.
Besides that…
I can’t really decide on one thing, but I think it can be “narrowed down” to everything.
In other words. Nothing is better than FH4. Things are either worse (AI, network, Arcade, Bugs, Creator modes) than before or they are exactly the same (Cars, Things to do…)
lol, if you want to fact check, just go to Xbox companion, it shows sometimes less hours than indeed played but never heard of showing more. DRC has more than 400 days of game just on FH4, just let you compare your figures to his, even on FH5…
The FH4/5 team has a religious discipline of adding rather than improving. They come to the improvement part only if an issue becomes visible from new players and could possibly affect sales. FH4 online experience was an occurrence of it ( only team racing at release including freeroam in S2 asphalt cars ).
Big Mike believes in FH being a very kid oriented game as opposed to motorsport. For me and others, FH was a step ahead of FM, breaking the boundaries of circuits to go racing everywhere in every conditions.
Thats how it works nowadays. In another forum there was a topic about playing the game without internet connection and the player wants a game he is able to start offline 10+ years later.
Lots of bla “paid 100$ and cant play in 10 years” later some kid showed up with:
There is lots of “dont like” in this game but the biggest is atm nothing gives me the “oh yeah” feeling
Whenever <ODESZA - A Moment Apart> starts playing in the radio my head is doing “oh yeah these 1000+ hours playing FH4” even with bugs it was fun to play fh4
I don’t know why this is still a thing in Forza. I hate the worthless cars that can neither be upgraded to S2 998 nor downgraded to S1 900. Why? Just why?

+1.
Given that most of the race in this game is class based, these piles of useless S2 hypercars make me sad.
Would it have been difficult for them to add an engine swap or turbo/supercharger option to these cars?
My biggest annoyance so far - it’s not even major but just a bit irritating. When you’re on the map and are trying to work out which event to do next, you hover over the event name and a giant box appears covering most of the route. This sometimes makes it difficult to decide which event to do next if you’re trying to minimise driving in between events.
The story mode and dialogue. Utterly cringe worthy hyperactive characters who constantly praise how amazing you are, the “hilarious” banter during missions, which gets even more “hilarious” when you replay them multiple times trying to get 5 stars and throwing in random Spanish words in a way no one does in real life. If there was a way to mute or skip them it would be fine, instead it feels like you’re stuck in a kid’s TV show.
