With the online portion still not working, and about zero communication from the devs if that is every going to get fixed, I’d rate it a solid 3 out of 10 because there’s ZERO reason to play the game. I really regret paying for the ultimate instead of just going with the ā€œfreeā€ (gamepass) standard version. Guess I’ve learned my lesson and won’t repeat that mistake.

Still the same for me. Somewhere in the vicinity of a 7. I don’t currently have a compelling reason to play it much, but that’s absolutely normal for me with this series.

I think a 5 is a fair number to put for my rating, I think this game hasn’t really made any major strides in terms of the technical side. Content wise the game is Ok, nice to see new cars and some new modes but graphical and technical issues along with long loading times for online races is what really sours what I think of the game.

Annoying how it can take up to 7 attempts to get past the main menu…

I play on PC so i tried FH3, 4 and 5. The best IMHO was FH4 - driving around I was feeling like I’m there for real - in FH5 there is no immersion for me. The map is big, ok - but it is empty. And so many bugs STILL - like H2H ā€œfreezeā€ in free roam or Eliminator, still present - the bug introduced in update and not fixed since middle December. And the game after last update loads a lot longer and 1 in 3 times loops and won’t start at all :frowning:
My rating? 4-5/10 because of bugs and still too little content, fix IMPORTANT bugs not water on windshield and it’s 7/10 easily.

I already gave my score, which was a 4, but I didn’t really have time to elaborate when I first posted that. Now I do.

To start with the positives, I liked the tweaks to the physics, some of the tracks are pretty well-designed, and most of the actually new cars have been good additions.

Other than that, the game has so many problems. Bugs, game design flaws, lack of attention to detail, underhanded tactics by PGG and Microsoft, poor performance (on last gen consoles, at least), bad AI, terrible voice acting and dialogue, dumb tie-ins with gender specific products, overwhelming sense of staleness, the list goes on.

In short, can this game be fun? Absolutely. Does it have staying power? No. Does it deserve the 10 it got from IGN? Absolutely not. For a genre geek, Luke Reilly should know better.

For me its a 3/10 max. I played Forza Horizon 2/3/4 really long…but i totally ignored FH5 after some weeks.
Graphics are really awesome, but Gameplay is just simple copy/paste. I expect nothing from the addons.

So playing TDU again…

When I started the game I thought the reviews were spot on. As time has gone on however, seeing how hollow the game actually is (There’s nothing to do once you clear the map) I’d give it a 6/10.

Do you Know somebody who like the ā€œRace Designerā€? Thats not Smart and some of the new Session Quest looks like somebody with an XBox Controler made it…

5.2 after almost six months your still in beta, players ask for fixes and you ignore them. For the first time last week i watched your youtube promotion on launch of series 5 the first 5 mins they are talking about another game and how much time they spend in it. This is very obvious that no one is testing this stuff. Extremely boring i so want to love this game but this is almost as much of a let down as BF. I would like to ask you this if you didnt work there would you buy this game?
If your not going to fix your accoldes then get rid of them.

I played this week’s series (took all of 2 hours) and was very underwhelmed. So creative to use the same races or skills from last week. what makes your job easier doesn’t make a fun play for anyone.
I know its not your fault I can only blame myself for sticking around.

So if tou get a review that speaks the truth and you don’t like it you then flag and hide it all i can say is wow

9/10 because it just my type of game. Went into it knowing that it will be my favourite racing game for the next 3 years and still need to find anything remotely close. Even FH4 that was one of the best games so far feels inferior now. Even if I know the game can be vastly improved I truly believe that it deserve such a high score. Grid Legend has a better racing experience but it’s a 100h game that deserve a 8 and GT7 has a better handling but lacks in everything else, still deserve a 8.5. So yeah in my opinion FH5 is way better than them both. So yeah 9 is right. IMO

I’m going for an overall 7/10.

I play it almost daily. It takes a good game to get that from me, so yeah I do enjoy it on the whole but I do have gripes of course.

Where it lost the 3 points?
I mostly like this game on a Thursday. If I manage to save the seasonal championships for the weekend I enjoy that too, with friends. If not then the rest of the week is a boring grind / accolade hunt.
It still crashes when applying paints - and paints is important to me.
All of the story, the characters, the voice acting, the stupid outfits and dances etc. - ALL OF IT - is absolutely horrible. I endured the story to fully unlock all I need for freeroam.

5 is bigger but 4 was better.

Been asking them to concentrate on the important bugs - the ones that actually affect gameplay - instead of the cosmetics for months now but still no further forward. Guess they’re dealing with the easy ones first that don’t actually do much just to get the list of bugs down a bit. Seriously PGG / Turn 10 - sort the important stuff out first then play with your unimportant looks.
So many broken accolades , events , etc. that have been running for over 5 months.

Looks like they’ve got Wolverine in to keep the game going for as long as he can hold on.
Would be better spending the money on some decent programmers instead as well as some support crews that can actually read a post and give a decent reply instead of hitting the big red Generic response button.

5/10 It can be fun but there are way to many bugs and the game had a lot more potential in many ways.

5/10. Despite the bugs, many aspects of the game are good. The terrible AI ruins it for me because my favorite part of the game (from previous Horizon releases) is solo racing.

For me the Game is a 3/10

It has some potential. But they don’t use it.
