      @@Mr.Waffullz IIRC His First Project with PGG was FH3 Hot Wheels, but I am pretty sure, although I could be *Very* Wrong here so please do not take it as Fact, only an "Educated Guess" , that FH4 Lego was when He became Chief Creative Director, as It was Still Ralph Fulton for a While as He was still on the Live Streams before Launch and up until around about Lego, when He was Replaced by Mike, making it, IMO, logical to Assume that is most likely when He became the Chief Creative Director and Ralph Fulton became CCD on Fable.

    I honestly think Mike still had control over most of the stuff we're seeing finally come into the game, but I think PG is giving their last hoorah with the rest of what they have left for FH5 before Motorsport (hopefully) releases this year. Because the updates were pretty mid until the rally DLC, and now all of a sudden we're getting a ton of pretty good stuff back to back, which could last a solid few months before FM

  • @unicornvenom420

    Honestly, my best guess and theory is Microsoft is going through studios, cleaning house, and making sure that studios aren’t slacking off or are actually listening to the fans that fill their pockets in the first place. I also say this considering 343 Industries went through some pretty big lead changes. So it’s possible they’re doi the clean house, and saying “If you actually love the game and are here because this is a game you’re going to give everything you got when you work on it, then stay.”

    think we can all agree, we just want some customization across the cars. i get the value of the amount of cars stands as there’s over 500 cars in this game. but if we could rework some of the cars that are 100% used to get some maybe lip kits atleast and maybe a new suspension option named extreme low springs or coils or however u wanna word it or just give us a fully customizable suspension where we can go as low as we want, give us spacer control where we can get the fitment on par to what we want it. my opinion let’s start a convo in the comments on some ideas 🤔

    I'm genuinely happy like a child right now!
    As a person that bought the pre-release version, it was quite a sad thing to watch the supposed "new jewel" of the franchise just die within months after release, after the car pack finished it just died off, and so did I,
    In fact I completely lost hope for fh5 after what the updates and how many features that were teased were just missing from the start or only in 2 or 4 cars had them, yet now with the few updates that are coming, they are turning the cat upside-down and really putting things back on their correct place and going the right way. Maybe there still is hope for fh5 after all.

    To be honest, FH5 feels like a normal map expansion to FH4. Sometimes I can't tell the difference between the two other than different areas and some new cars. Maybe thats' because I don't play the game with new features added. I also guess It's hard to perfect what was already so good.

    Simply put...I switched from PS to Xbox because of Forza and its dual style franchise. I.e. horizon and racing versions. In fact, when fh4 came out, I (and my gal) got a new kitten during the week of launch. His name is of course, Forza. If this title decides to jump the shark, I will as well... and not just from forza, but from all microsoft supported platforms. The cat ,however, will keep his "coolest name for a cat, ever" moniker for at least the next 12 years. It really is the best name for a cat. Jus'sayin'!

    I've played all the Horizon games, I absolutely loved horizon 4 and kept playing it years after it launched. When fh5 dropped i was super excited for it but quickly was let down. I bought the ultimate edition and played it for a month, then came back every few months to see what's new, but it was bland. Never regained that Interest that I had from the pervious editions. It all just felt like a big let down, the dlcs have felt disappointing and just haven't bothered to play it. Shame as there was so much hype behind it

    Great video to put some context! To be honest, I really wanted a refund after spending 100USD on the pre order. I found the same Forza Horizon 4 but in Mexico and I think that this recicled updates made it worse. Im still facing visual bugs since day 1 (Shadows with SSAO are looking horrible, popping, random crashes, etc in a 3070/R5 5600X/32Gb RAM 3600Mhz and SSD NVME M.2 so I dont think its my pc), Im still seeing the same game and the last DLC, for me, was the only new content in all these years of FH5 life. That should be base game content as off road feels the same as it was games before. I find it not to big and way basic for a DLC. I hope that the game at least keep putting this updates with new content but I fear now for FM8 and what they said about it. This Porsches were new to FM and I thought they will be only there, now with the DPis deleted, it seems that we will get recicled content again and just a updated FM7. I wish that TDU SC makes a great debut so Playground can fear for the competition and actually do a great game.

    Poor theming, it feels like Mexico upon sea... After the initial buzz it feels inferior to FH4. No Voice comms makes the world feel dead and solo. Yet it's still the most enjoyable arcade racer, I hope the future is bright and they bring it up to speed with other AAA titles.

    To me, I really think this had to with Mike Brown’s relationship with the hire ups at Microsoft. I really was disappointed and worried about what has happened with the lifespan of the game after the launch date. Now I do understand why the game uses recycled cars but I really wished they told us when Horizon 4 was so we could understand. I really hope this update could bring a bit something new. So I hope the game could bring something for the OG fans. And please, don’t scare the OGs and make them leave.

    Weeeell… the DLC wasn’t free, so to a lot of people that just play it because they have Game Pass doesn’t really mean anything, same thing goes to every other DLC in the forza games previous and to come to the Game Pass, if you have to buy it then most of the game pass community won’t do it, it doesn’t make sense to push out the game for free to play and then paywall the DLC’s always, thus I wouldn’t count the rally DLC in it. Other than that it’s all the same but with new cars and a couple of 2.5 year old due fixes.

I still play FM7 and Horizon4 or 5 as single player games same as GT4, also I have no idea what this "angry and upset community" is adn where its located, are they all on a forum somewhere that I never heard of?

    It’s crazy, 4 years ago, when Brown was hired, we thought he would be the saving grace for the series. Now he’s being blamed for destroying the whole franchise. I think him being at fault is somewhat true, and we may never see the full end of the story so, this might be the only evidence we can go of of. It’s just to coincidental that right after he leaves, the game is better now.

    Honestly the biggest problem with Forza for the last few years is a huge lack of story. The first Horizon didn’t have the most amazing story but it was really good, to the point where I’ve replayed it several times. It’s fun to have actual characters that you get to race against. Being the “underdog” who races their way to the top is always a fun story. Starting with a crappy car but then eventually racing good enough to unlock faster cars. Which then leads me to my next problem with the series so far. In both 4 and 5 you can immediately get the fastest cars in the game, it’s super easy to make money, and there’s no sense of accomplishment. It’s why the game feels so hollow, and sadly no amount of new cars or map updates will fill that void.

    Well Mike Brown said in the 10th anniversary Livestream that he wasn't in the studio since the beginning of fh4 development, so why was he even a creative director? If the team has no lead, team members aren't gonna care what they are putting out. Now that he is gone and the team members seem to have leadership they are getting things back on track.

    My biggest problem with the game is, that it feels too empty.
    In FH4 for example you had like 40-90 other players all over the map in your session. In FH5, the game just loads in and out like 1-10 in your proximity. People just constantly pop in and out of existence, you can't really casually race others on the highway. And the change from one centralized Forzathon to many small ones also was a terrible idea that they haven't corrected till this day, for whatever reason. It's pretty much impossible to find other players for the Forzathon challenges, if you need the points for the shop, you're always on your own, which just really isn't fun.

    I think forza currently is headed in the right direction. However they need to make improvements still. Such as the scoring for drifting, it should be about driving line, control, smoothness, and angle. It currently only seams to really care about wheelspeed. Drifting in horizon open should be ranked between class, and drivetrain. All wheel drive drifters are physically impossible to keep up with in points do to how forza scores drifting. They also still need to fix the offset option by that I mean give us a actual wheel offset option and not just axle width. Would also be cool if we get some sort of suspension lift kits in a sense.
