Xbox Game Studios |OT4| This is for Studio talk. Studios. It's the Studios OT. Studio talk here (Part 1)

The question is wouldn’t it be smarter to save Japan for next gen only? Surely the next game will be cross gen if it comes this year.

I was lmao when saw people discussing it :laughing:

lmaoo exactly.

The roads are generally pretty bad here, but the architecture is definitely great. But this is a racing game, so the roads come first. They’d simply end up see urban highways cuz it’d be too much for them to handle the actual inner city roads here.

MFs bout to have 2 hour traffic as a loading screen.

What about Switzerland?

Not Europe please. I’m from Europe and I find it very boring and samey. Go somewhere else like Mexico, South East Asia, South America, Japan, India, Iran, Africa whatever just not Europe or so called western countries. Two FH games are more than enough in Europe for now.

I’m sure I’m going to play it and enjoy it a lot wherever they put it in, but I hope it’s not Europe.

I kinda now hope it’s something none of us see coming, like we’ll see the reveal and be like “wait whaaaaaaa” lol. Wherever it is, just make it interesting and rich in world detail, and I’m fine.

:face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Hmmmm what about a FH set in the 80is or 90is ?

I’m more interested in new game additions, how do they move the game forward. Seasons from Fh4 is amazing. Story missions too. Playground games etc. So what will be new in FH5. I’ll get over locations probably very fast.

same tbh. No matter how good FH4 looked and played, I felt a general sense of lack of coherent focus for the game, it felt too free, you know what I mean? Like there’s no sense of progression when I’m playing FH4. I heard some of the older games in the series had that aspect better but I haven’t played them. I hope there’s a good progression system in FH5.

True I hope Horizon gives me a better main “story” and something where I feel like I progress.

Forza Horizon 1 had the best story but my favourite is FH2. While the story is not that good… the sense of progression was always there thanks to a cup like system.

You did four races in a cup and the person with the highest score gets a win. You had to collect a certain amount of wins to qualify for the big race around the map.

Like for example, imo the early Blackbox era NFS games did it really well. UG2, MW2005, Carbon all had an excellent campaign and a very clear sense of progression. I still go back to MW2005 from time to time and play the blacklist campaign, who all had their unique identities and playstyles. Battling them and trying to win the pink slip for each of their cars was such a cool moment lol, I hope we get that in FH. Doesn’t mean the game needs some big crazy story (although these NFS games had a certain charm of their own despite the rather edgy obviously-early 2000s feel lol), but I do need that sense of clear progression where I feel like logging in and knowing what to do next. Currently, I just go into FH4 and treat it like a sandbox than a campaign where I have no idea what I’m doing half the time, and simply tend to stumble onto things than knowing that’s what I wanted to do.

Additionally I really love the map from FH2 the south European coast side is beautiful.

Also a banger soundtrack with some tracks I still listen to frequently. Absolutely amazing and the best highway in the franchise!
