What am I in for?
Same but Japan
>>739333885how do I git gud drift im really bad at it
>>739334039You kinda have to tune the car for drifting otherwise it's always going to suck, that is step 1. Easiest is to download someone's tune that has a note it's for drift or something.Other than that, just practice. Go fast, handbrake, turn hard and then play with the throttle until you get it right.
I LOVE YOU MITSUBISHI MONTERO
>>739333885I want to get this game but apparently it sucks with wheel and I don't have a controller to play on right now.
>>739334607very playable with keyboard if you want. better than wheel but not as fun
>>739334232noudont you just need fat rear tires and a lot of powerit takes care of it self, you just need to power oversteer
>>739333885wide roads, easy races, and 250 cars that feel identical to drive
>>739334607>>739335690What the fuck, I heard the other day they finally got wheel controls right, so it still sucks? It's like the 6th game, no fucking way it still sucks? I was thinking of getting a wheel. Anyone who actually played with wheel experience here?
I fucking love this game bros. I just completed the all the festival races and finished the seasonal stuff for the week. Gonna start all the discover japan stuff next, as well 3-star all the small events. Got all the mascots, the bonus boards are gonna be a pain. Same for the roads. Map shows it all complete, but I'm missing a few.
>>739334232>download someone's tune I pirated the game I can't connect it to the Internet
>>739338625fug
I had to put traction control on to beat a race.It's over, I'm a scrub.
>>739333885A wonderful time. It is the best Horizon game. Enjoying it as much as I did Horizon 2. So many great cars and it is clear Playground believes in intrinsic reward vs extrinsic. They ignored the "please control the cars I drive" people and let you get the car you want when you want so you can just fucking DRIVE. So good.
>>739334039rwd or awd car, awd is easierfor a beginner, use any formula drift car or create your own by buying drift tires, drift suspension, drift differential and some power, this gets you mostly there alreadythis game is really forgiving with drifting
explain upgrades to me, in great detail. after this, explain tuning to me, in great detail
>>739334039buy a formula drift car (they're cheap) they make it really easy
>>739342084you prioritize weight reduction first, then anti roll bars because they're basically free, then tires, then tire width a little bit, then exhaust, then anything. additionally, upgrading anything 2 classes above is a fool's errand. Unless you really specifically know what you're doing, the car just can't compete.btw i base this on nothing but my own experiences with just 40 hours in FH5
>>739334039Start turning, clutch in, yank the handbrake. Gradually turn the wheel in the opposite direction as your angle increases. Once you've got enough angle let go of the handbrake and dump the clutch. Steering controls the direction the car travels, throttle controls the car's rotation, higher gears allow longer arcs. Gradually let out the throttle and straighten your steering to end it or cut the throttle to start drifting in the other direction.You're going to fuck it up, you won't understand why it's not working. Just keep trying, you'll start to get a feel for what works and then everything just clicks
>>739342084>explain upgrades to meupgrade only to the top of base class so your cars still at least have some character or better yet keep them sensibly stock>explain tuning to meits completely skippable except for the odd dumb seasonal stunt challenge
>>739333885it's fun. it's also refreshing to get a AAA game more or less feature complete and bug free at launch. no pretentious story, moralising or politics, the game just throws a bunch of fun shit at you and tells you to go wild
how do i have like 40 cars, i take the time to upgrade and customize several of my favorites, and yet whenver i start a race i always have to buy a fucking recommended car i've never driven before
>>739342835races tend to have class and car type restrictions (applies for the first time only)
>>739342970i know but you think one of the 40 cars or 9 i've upgraded would fit those categories sometimes.
i watched some gameplay and it just made me want to play gran turismo 4
>>739342084For tuning, usually you just leave it, the main exception being gear ratios if you find yourself hitting the rev limiter instead of going fast, or if the car feels like its in the wrong gear a lot, like if it spends a lot of time in 6th gear etc and it limps slowly out of corners or up hills. Gran Turismo 4 had a hold gear button, even if you were driving auto, I wish Forza had that.
>sorry, none of your favorite cars are valid for this race>oops! you rolled the dice on a car and don't like it?>just exit the race, choose another car (make sure it complies to the rules of this one race!) and drive back to the starting zone teehee
>>739338008bro it plays like need for speed what are you expecting?
>>739338120any idea how to get the xp boards that are on roofs?>>739338625>pirating a game based around online play just play something else lmao
>>739345782or just stop being a faggot and just play the game. fucking car autists
>>739334607I dunno, FH5 felt fine to me for an arcade racer. Apparently there's something about the in game wheel only turning 180 degrees but I went with hood cam because why would I want a steering wheel behind my steering wheel
>>739333885More forza, just japan flavor. >>739334039Tune an FR carLose traction. Steer with your throttle.Regain traction.
>Waddup wholesome friendo>Are you ready for a heckin' explorace around Japon???>Didju know that if you look to your left, you'll see the bingobongi mountain>Fixed camera. Can't look look around the car.Iuno man. I just don't get it. It all seems so fucking lame.
>>739336372At the very least, understanding that some cars are easier to learn on, like say an RX7 FD, so you don't try this shit with a front wheel drive or the wrong AWD car. Oh, and turn off traction control obviously.
>>739333885A piece of shut fucking game with INSANE rubberbanding and unrealistic AI that’s glued to the road no matter what meanwhile you’re driving on an ice skating rink.
they let you can test drive the furai so they should they let you test drive all the current playlist reward cars
post some funny car designs please...
>>739346183did you reply to the wrong post?
>>739346337>More forza, just japan flavor.SOLD
>>739346619the worst is when they make you use any of those trash buggys. I'm going a mile wide and spinning out on grass corners like someone shot my tires out in gta, meanwhile the ai are on rails
>>739345782>sorry, none of your favorite cars are valid for this racewhy are you driving to races and being shocked by this when it shows you the initial restrictions on the map and or playlist screen
>>739346782So what I just don't do the races? Great idea, anon. Genius, truly.
>>739346619So...more forza.>>739346724Just keep in mind that they're using the normal forza road porportions, which really isn't japanese at all. Some roads are 6x wider than the real thing. Dont' go in expecting initial D or Tokyo extreme racer.
>>739347391>Some roads are 6x wider than the real thing.thank fuck
>>739346619Like any racing game, the real meat of it is in hot lapping and multiplayer
>>739334039Related question to this but does anybody know how to post big scores on the drift zones?It seems like nothing really changes point amountsGoing fast or slow doesn't matterhigh or low angle doesn't matterfishtailing or continuous drifts doesn't matterwhat the fuck do you do to really rack up the points?Every 3 star attempt is just a dice roll, I have no idea what the hell I am doing right or wrong
>>739347487You're missing out on way more exciting racing because you're a pussy or you have some weird notion about traffic jams
>8 hours played>have only managed to get a podium finish 6 times (playing on average difficulty)>have gotten the "EASY MODE IS NOW SELECTABLE" message twicei might be the worst
>>739338625>>I pirated the game I can't connect it to the InternetYou just know this is a buyfagging retard. Pirates have been playing online 1 day before the premium edition early access.
>>739338806You're a scrub. Verstappen is a scrub. It's never been so over.
>>739347784I would enjoy a game where you race honda civics with fart cans and low end toyos down tight twisty streets, but this aint that game. How am I supposed to send a 69 charger down single lane bugman streets?>>739347921you'll get onto it soon. Pick a car you like and spend some time doing laps against your own best time
>>739333885good not great
any wheelchads? how is the FFB in this game? im almost done downloading
>>739348112>How am I supposed to send a 69 charger down single lane bugman streets?With a lot of property damage OR crazy taxi bonuses.
It's Japan flavor, not Japan.
>>739342084upgrades make your car faster, and the PI number you get from applying them is calculated based on rough and dirty estimation of how fast a time the AI could set on a reference track.The AI in that sim drives perfectly, but also does not tune the vehicle in any way, so you pick upgrades that are good when the car is tuned, but shit when it is not.Generally you are looking for a few things:1. Car is relatively light weight without upgrades (less than 3800 lbs)Lighter car = faster car, also heavier cars are just harder to tune2. a race transmission paired with either A. an engine with a peaky power curve (think challenger hellcat engine, where it makes 727 hp for only 250 rpm before falling back down to 650), B. engine that lets you rev far beyond redline (6.2 L V8, the unholy LS swap) or C. engines with really weird power curves (late 90's/early 00's subaru, where peak power is produced at ~5400 rpm, but the engine doesn't redline till 8500The default tune on a racing transmission sucks for all of these, but by driving manual and tuning you can make them really good.(hellcat gets very narrow gears, you shift the LS when it won't rev any higher, skipping gears 1 -> 3 -> 5 with the subaru2. Rear aero with a suspension tuneRear aero brings down your PI and lets you fit more upgrades, but can fuck up the grip and balance. You fix this with oversteer tuning (stiffer rear springs & ARBs, slightly softer front springs & ARBs)There is way more to it than that but I am not going to explain all that shit4. Some upgrades provide better performance despite costing less PI. Upgrade priorities depend on what class you are aiming to build for and what engine swaps are available, but generally:0. engine swap to good engine (if available/fits within class choice)1. Weight reduction2. Rear tire width3. tire compound4. forced induction (your turbo or supercharger)5. other engine upgrades6. everything else to nudge your PI up/down
>>739333885I never played this game before but it is the most aggressively soulless game I've ever played.The voice acting is the worst. Made no effort to make it not sound like they're just recording in an empty recording studio. 0 ambient noise even.
>>739348112>How am I supposed to send a 69 charger down single lane streetsThat's what the highways are for
>>739334596it's PAJERO
>>739347342Or you know, just buy the car that the event requires, with the millions of credits that the game just hands you for doing literally nothing.
>buy car>interior driving postion is perfect>buy different car>interior driving position is completely fuckedthe ONE thing nu motorsport did right before flopping spectacularly and dying a slow death was interiors and they didn't bring them over.
>>739338008It's a console arcade racer, Anon.
wtf you guys told me FH has no progression what is this I am hearing about actually buying the right cars for events and upgrading them with tuning?
>>739350541see>>739345782
>>739350857The strict progression is oppressive if you just want to speed through the main events to unlock everything
>>739350927Were you planning on playing for under 2 hours and refunding? You'll have plenty of time to drive whatever you want
>>739350657>literal asset flip and map pack>couldn't be arsed to let you move the cameraI hope Fable kills Playground
>>739333885fun
>>739342330bro is playing the children's game with a wheelhahahahaha oh no no nolook at the top of his head!
>>739351435Nope I plan to spend many hours tuning and racing, aka the actual meat of the game. You can easily skip all of the scripted festival events and still get the proper fh experience but my ocd won't let me settle into my routine until I clear that shit up. Keep in mind you can do time trials or races of any class on every track in the game as well as creating your own tracks and events with a huge pool of community content to choose from. The "story" is basically a side quest for casual playthroughs
>>739340906>electric drift truckFucking disgusting.
>>739352749gaschuds lost
THERE'S NO POINT IN BEING SUPERSAD
installed this yesterday, neat enough, but>prosthetics customizationhuh neat I guess>hearing aidswas that really necessary
>>739355805Im annoyed that you can replace your arms and legs but cant replace your head to be a crashtest dummy. Well you do get helmets.
Body customisation is disgustingly underwhelming.>I can only choose one front bumper and one spoiler
>>739333885Fun. Don't forget to set it up so all the voices are Japanese only.
>>739343032Previous games had hundreds of cars, I doubt you have even 10% of the collection if 40 is all you have
>>739348112Why would you use burger vehicles in Japan?
>>739338806You can win races? I've only won like one and I'm only Above Average.
>>739333885racism and kino vibes*.*only while driving.
>>739357595Just brake later than everyone else.
>>739333885I've only played forza motorsport series and my first time playing horizon and it's nice and has the "thing japan" feel. But I'm surprised the driving feel lean towards motorsport than say nfs or burnout. I was expecting it'd be super casual but it's not, I'm surprised casuals enjoy it
>>739358136its more simcade than full arcade like the games you mentioned anon.
I don't like how multiplayer works.>have to joing a convoy to do PVP racesWhat's wrong with matchmaking?
my god it's so good. makes you wonder why the fuck they made 5
Game is incredible i can't even joke about hating it. Graphics are a massive step up too especially when playing with RT enabled (ultra+RT preset). Also I doubt the ps5 version will release at this point.
They probably should have made the guard rails during touge indestructible so the races arent just about slamming the dude off a cliff during the first turn
>>739358728that's the fun of touge irl and in gaming
>unskippable intro
https://youtu.be/MITA4FhVjDcthis one song has more energy than the entire game japan combined
>>739358728How would I roleplay shingo then?
look at this cute lil guy
>>739359884*ahegaos*
why yes i am a car connoisseur if i must say so myself
How do you tune the AE86 with that ridiculous engine so that it doesn't wheelspin at 200mph? This is absurd, it's like I'm driving a hovercraft that's on fire.
>No honda jazzgarbage
>>739350657Lol motorsport had so many broken interiors that never got fixed, you didnt play enough
>>739360187sugoi touko-chan so kawaii <3
>>739345874>xp boards that are on roofs?You just have to find angles to launch your self off of. Those are the worst. Just save yourself some time and try to find a video online. A lot of them just don't make any sense.
I might just suck, but touge events are 10 times harder than everything else. The only way I can win is by ramming the opponent off a cliff, which is hilarious because they still say shit like "nice race bro you're a pro ggs haha" at the end anyway.
>>739347942I don't understand your notion but i pirated the game . i pirated the pre-release leaked version too but it required you to sign in so I said fuck that and so I waited for the game to come out and pirated that version
>>739347921>>739338806im shit at racing games and games in general and in doing bretty good so far I even upped the difficulty a bit and made it so the driving line only shows for turns as someone who only started with horizon 5 im surprised im doing so well
It this another "get a hypercar the first 30 mins of gameplay" kind of game? I hate when there is no progression
>>739362336you might just suck
>>739362764yes
>>739362764There is progression but it's not with the cars the game gives you. You'll be doing slow car races for a long while, the fast cars you get can only be used for getting around the map faster. The Forza games have inverted progression, Ferraris and Lamborghinis are cringe and for toddlers, the real fun comes from having a Ferrari and choosing to drive a D-tier 80s Honda anyway.
>>739363879A car being faster and more expensive doesn't mean it has a soul.
>>739333885>HEY GAIJIN-SAN, WELCOME TO TOKYO CITY! I JUST KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT HERE>WATCH OUT FOR THE SAKURA PETALS!

>>739364310false reddit and initald manchild takeexpensive cars are hand made unlike mass produced garbage made to last until ends of warrantytwingo has a good design, but underneath it's nothing special and neither does it handle as such
>>739363879Reject poopercars, embrace Dennis
>>739363879how long do you have to play before it lets you use what car you want? bought a mustang and every race ive joined just hands me some random car and say drive this. been 4 hours.
>still not Gran Turismo on PCI like learning tracks more than free driving desu
>>739364601That was FM and it's fucking boring
>>739364669FM is to Gran Turismo what Roblox is to iRacing
>>739364601On one hand>paying for modsOn the other, it's cheaper than GT7
>>739363879>The Forza games have inverted progressionthis. hyper cars are for newbs playing with full assists
>>739364894There hasn't been a good GT game in over a decade dude
>>739362447Exactly why you're retarded. I'm not even referring to the leaked build.
>>739333967FPBP againits literally the same shit. Forza Horizon is now the Fifa of racers, the field may change but the game notsticking to TXR as its actually something new to me
i just want to install the game, pick a car, pick a location and drive why the fuck do you have to work your way up from a le epic drift car to anything worth drivingno one wants to drive a silvia with a rocketbunny bodykit except 15 year olds
>>739364369Dude, that sounds funBoughted
>>739366995muh sandbox experience
>>739366995>no one wants to drive a silvia with a rocketbunny bodykit except 15 year oldsunfortunately there are a lot of people on the internet who unironically love >>739364369
>>739333967That's a good thing, if you like FH then you get more FH in arguably its best package ever. I don't know why you retards were expecting anything different. Maybe next time you can go complain that the new COD release is more COD
I almost have everything done in the collection book and I'm still on the yellow wristband.>>739366995You can just play the game the way you want, you know.
>>739366995I was given a bunch of S1 class cars due to DLC and all I could think was>what kind of retard would drive these early on?I guess I have my answer.
I would marry the Gacha radio host based on her voice alone.
>>739366995Then pick one of the two other starter cars and buy the car you want after playing for 20 minutes
>>739368251This. The game overwhelms you, I have more sports cars than I know what to do with.I just wanna drive my shitty B Class Trueno. I hate niggers.
>>739357284>Body customisationI thought you were talking about type 3 and prosthetics stuff lol.
>>739364601>he can't into emulation oh no no no no no
>>739366019please just tell me what's going on anon I don't have time for this smugness on 4chan i have work tomorrow so in on borrowed time here if there's some way to play online like an onlinefix or something just tell me I've never used one before
>>739333885Fun
>>739366995what? you're given the ability to buy cars like instantly and as soon as the game stars you already have like 30 cars >>739368217shit man you're lonely
>>739333967Which is all it needed to do to be successful
>>739334039>>739334232Or buy a formula drift car. They are good for beginners who don't know how to tu e.
>>739368217Based Touko lover.
Do you guys know how to import your offline pirate save to the online version? i dont wanna start over
>>739368170is this your first racing game? do you really need to run the usual 8 worlds and boss before allowing yourself to drive the cars you like? Do you force yourself to do race types you hate as well in the name of "progression"
So how the fuck do I drive
>>739366995so which one is it? do the devs have to pander to progressionfags or sandboxtards like you?make up your mind /v/
>>739370382>this is the difference when I turn on the racing line and turn off car damageA shitload of time lost on the last segment when my car just gets absolutely destroyed from the fall.
>>739370382Smooth and steady, follow the racing line and avoid drifting all over the place, it's very easy to do that with that car>>739371248Don't use simulation damage, there's no reason to
>>739333885HEY CHAMP
>>739370382Use the brake more and use the racing line. Any idiot can drive fast in a straight line, the real challenge of driving fast is preserving momentum through corners.
>>739370382You don't. You set up the auto drive function to do this challenge for you since the devs made the timer extremely strict (you have to be pretty much perfect to get it just a few seconds under 4 min).
