hot take: FH6 is literally this meme

hot take: FH6 is literally this meme

i enjoyed playing FH6 because who doesnt like horizon, but this game feels like a huge fumble honestly. for a region where JDM hails from, this game felt veerrryyy lacking in that aspect. sure, the customization is better than FH5 but is in no way comparable to japan’s actual car scene. what will it take to get NFSU2 levels of customization? i want a pure shitbox. is that too much to ask?

aside from that, i felt japan was very bare. the verticality and variety added in japan is cool compared to FH5’s map but most of it feels like wasted space. most of the races (that progress the story) felt like just cross country and dirt races. if i wanted to play dirt, i would play dirt. not to mention the absolute wasted potential that “legend island” was. seriously, all game this is hyped up and when you finally get there it’s basically nothing. barn finds/treasure cars feel like im walking up to random cars and recording myself stealing them (i know barn finds are placed by the festival per lore but treasure cars legit feel like a crime in this game lmao).

really all we got with FH6 is better driving, wristband system is back (yipee), better car models (for older cars), better customization (to an extent), and better visuals with japan slapped on top of it. there’s really nothing memorable about this game aside from the giant mech showcase imo.

Is Mazda Furai Banned from the Goliath Race?

Why am I not allowed to select my Mazda Furai for this race? Glitch? Banned? Too goated? Both of the other options listed are also in the "Extreme Track Toys" category...?

What S2 car should I buy?

Want to use it pure tuned for overall racing. Inching to the CCGT. But I'm eager to hear your view.

A livery inspired by the JTA Whale Shark livery for the XJ220 (TWR)

I thought the car would be the perfect fit for this livery, I will also do some for the regular XJ220 + a more airliner type livery including the other versions (pink & turquoise)

Got 3 different versions (in order of pictures)

V1: more like the OG JTA livery
V2: full body (headlights as eyes)
V3: full body (fog lights as eyes)

I created this Taka-Inspired JDM Drift Livery for the Huracan (FH6) | What do you think?

I put a lot of time and effort into creating this build because I wanted it to stand out while staying true to the classic Taka-inspired JDM drift style that's usually seen on Silvia builds.

Adapting that aesthetic to the Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 with the Liberty Walk kit was a fun challenge, and I tried to make every decal placement and detail feel intentional. I'm really happy with how it turned out and would love to hear what you think.

If you like it and want to use it yourself, feel free to download it with the share code

Am I the only who leaves the team if I mess up and can’t recover from dead last in a Trial?

I feel it’s the least I can do. Some games there are three or four guys just sitting in last place all three games.

I don't feel anything anymore.

Maybe one day I'll find joy again, but i ground this out and all life is pain.

A Swing... And A Miss

Older clip I recorded when I was doing the Togue Showdown seasonal challenge. I honestly don't know how the game was able to ghost me there at such low speed, but I appreciate it Forza.

Don't worry I reported him back when this happened and he got whatever penalties the enforcement team thought he deserved.

Sport Tyres need higher Lateral Grip to be useable

Text on the suggestion is as follows;

>At the moment the online meta is Rally Tyres because they give a similar amount of Lateral Grip as Semi-Slicks but with a drop in acceleration and braking performance.

>At only ~3PI more expensive than Sport tyres, they obliterate them on roads as the extra braking performance and 3PI does not outweigh (at all) the lateral grip of the rally tyres.

>I don’t think nerfing Rally Tyres is the solution, but I do think that an increase in the lateral grip of Sport Tyres would drastically raise their viability, increase variability and variety and it wouldn’t effect the current leaderboards as they currently stand (as far as I am aware).

I would appreciate your votes on the Forza Feedback link to help us gain increased viability and variance in the online meta, if you agree of course.

If you have an alternative suggestion or opinion please put it in the comments below and we can discuss them, a unified suggestion will do better than dozens of similar ones.

Shameful ramming attempts by spec racing cheater

I was about four races deep into a spec racing lobby when I found two blatant cheaters (only one here as the other left). With the final race coming up, I decided to record this special number.

Guess it finally happened to me. A cheater in a spec racing lobby, a dirty one no less.

Cheat sheet for online racing?

I'm at the point where I have many different cars with great tunes for all event types. Power builds, handling builds, for dry\wet conditions, with rally and off-road and (semi-)slick tires.

I'm looking for a quick reference sheet which recommends the best tune type per track. Something that I can quickly look at when signing up to a 3-race championship, so that when I commit to a car for the 3 races I can quickly decide between a power build and handling, and which tires.

The track names are mostly Japanese ones and I'm having trouble remembering which is which, so a "cheat sheet" I can search quickly would be very helpful.

If anyone has such a resource, please drop a link. If not, feel free to make your recommendations here, and I'll get on the job to compile a shared sheet and share it.

Does anyone else hate wall slowdowns in online racing?

I hate how Rammers can ram all they want and yet I tap a wall or don’t brake in time and hit the wall and it slows me down to like 60km/h and all the other racers pass me and my race is ruined

Edit: the ramming I’m talking about is just general ramming like making me miss a checkpoint. Not ramming me into a wall. I’m talking about wall slowdowns that are caused by my own accident when racing. Those are the ones that suck

This should be one of the emotes

Furthermore character customisation should include crazy hair styles and makeup. Should all be a part of an update that includes neon and exhaust modifications haha. I am only kinda joking. That actually would be really awesome. Does anyone else see this guy show up on Instagram all the time?
