TLDR: Latest update: 400 hours review on my profile, It's legendary now, alt+Tab edition ready, using steam overlay off, printing screen and saving screenshots the way I want, when i want, very cool :)_ I also use my own music and VLC player as required, :)
made my own volcano gauntlet map; Blueprint: 902 923 877
Best racing game, ever,
cars that you random from wheelspins change your life, - I now gift almost all of them
CRASHES: enable traction control to prevent crashing as often as you do, driving 400KM/H?
Top 1% of 11 Million, with an Xbox One S controller and no cheats review: I learnt to drive in this game, with default controller settings - Tune every car, since FH4, Drive manual, learn the corners, speeds, best gears PER CAR< I drive so well, I can drive better without auto-steering ON, drifting when required, hard gearing down, i would have blown engines in my lifetime, but every single mechanic of this game is so under your control with 100% difficulty,, play around with assists, to get rich quick. At first , you don't win races, because of wrong car, or whatever, but STICK TO THE RACE< %$$$$$$ The money comes from FINISHING, EVEN ONLINE :: HIGHEST DIFFICULTY TEACHES YOU THE TRACKS AND MECHANICS<
Definitely use Traction control ON - at the beginning, - > it's extra handling points
You can also Play around with Any car, to gain skill points -> 50K per skill point! ULTIMATES = Best performing moves/ max air time, it's amazing!
There's CAR MASTERY _> on each car, unlocked with skill points!

214h: TLDR: This is a strategy, RPG, Open-world driver, the difficulty comes from tuning your cars to perfection on the terrains you want to race it, it's INCREDIBLE , how beautifully deep you can tune ANY car, to exactly what you WANT!:!!)!)!)!)!) ♥♥∞ LOVE ♥♥
186 hours tonnes of fun, still collecting many cars! Making them rally!
145 Hours review: INCREDIBLE< patches are now rolling out as they are able to. I'm doing the rally conversions now, and almost all the cars do better with handling, even if they score is going down. Statisttics are still 'relative' -> test everything :) Have fun tuning!
This is the most amazing open-world racing game of our time! :) Read below if you have issues with the game - [if FH4 worked for you on Steam, this should be flawless - add security exclusion in windows10 for the game folder, and steam library/of that drive,]
Controller fix down below too -> Firmware Upgrade
Best Settings Down below for GTX1070 -
NVIDIA STUDIO DRIVERS ARE SUPERIOR TO EVERYTHING 'GAME READY' STANDS FOR< GGWP STUDIO DRIVERS

TLDR: Eliminator Mode is PUBG for cars, your car type is your arsenal, your skills are put to the test, alongside AGILITY;

Disclaimer: "It worked because FH4 from steam worked - I started it up, ran it , till i started helping the community and broke it, unintentionally, then fixed it myself, and continued trying new things to test /nvidia control panel must become familiar ground for the GPU owners]
Yelp is needed, Server back end work in progress, MS should get some Steam regional world servers to cater to the size of this world;

This game requires you to have configured your system in many different ways, to get it working,

Connection issues: open Windows start menu - type services.msc - Find Xbox - alpha order, and make sure authentication and component services run to allow NAT Moderate, and server connectivity not blocked, [manually fixed - then they did a server fix on 8 Nov 2021 ]
[News in-game -
If FH4 worked, this should work - It took the same amount of precision - but once it works, very little crashes you,
Discord and MSI afterburner work, Rivatuner- not installed
Geforce Experience Overlay Off -

Bugs: Many ARE being fixed, if you can't Continue the game, it's usually due to AV Exclusions.
The latest one is:

The game is beautiful, I'm a tourist in this country but a GTX1070 does amazing on it's own for this game, - Sucks to stream- but then that's Open World- Life - Online - [OBS STUDIO] as this will be my only time lagging , due to online overlapping notifications , you cannot escape. Disconnect error: Ultra Low Latency, in Nvidia Control panel had to be turned off for me; It then never had another issue, till the reward acceptance crash.

if you play Horizon Solo - the network overlay of the game itself is not dragging the performance of this game down, Go to the online menu, and choose Horizon Solo. You get traffic, and drivatars, and can even challenge them to the one-on-one races. :)

It can be smooth/ so the dips can be reliant on how many people you pass, or see in the world, -Turning off drivatar decals/designs and the drivatars themselves 'design' helps fix some lag
-> Arcade is going all the time :

the map is big, lots of different types of driving, think Tokyo Drift curve mountains, like 10KM _+++++ more of mountains ,
Grasslands, lots of dirt roads, - Rally suspension necessary

The customization system is sooo much more in-depth;


'
Be an administrative user:
CMD as admin
net user administrator /active:yes
.
Turn off moving backgrounds, in game's accessibility menu keeps them still moving

More Bugs:
hud on challenging another rival, which was the same rival makes the game HUD not show. pause menu to bring back HUD

Memory not constant/slows down eventually, in Nvidia 496.49 or whatever,
Rival if you lap Goliath 4x time it only pays you for ONE, in Rivals,

I also tested Studio drivers, thanks to forum comments to test - Now it's an ignore and continue error, due to numbers not matching, but the game is working even better,

I get on a good day 38*C on a 3x fan GPU running 42% always,
it can go up to 50^C,

Some MS DL Links:

People with 3070"s and above:

Originally posted by Phat Monkey:

For me on a 3090 I noticed some funky goings on in the GPU usage department in the menu screens, I then decided to cap the FPS to 90 in the NVIDIA panel and have not had this loading issue since.

Nice, mine is 67fps with a GTX1070 , so <:) well done, will add this to my thread for fixes,

If a GTX1070 and i5 10400f with 16GB RAM< Win 10 21H1 can run this, so can you,
Very good optimization on the engine comes from DX12 - 50^C on a Zotac triple fan card, and it feels amazing- seeing as it's overclocked too, and it performs on this temp constantly, with 42% fan speed, ;) no strain at all.

Fixes to be checked out here:
■ Antivirus, and Windows security - Browser & App Control - to be turned off, Exception for the entire FH5 Folder,
■ Test running it as an admin

In-game settings for GTX1070's.;
2.8 Hours no crash, [first attempt standard Game ready drivers for this game]
Raytracing is on by default, even if your device cannot render it!! [GTX1070] Turn this off,
Night shadows, I put off, will test when i feel like it,

The controller is now like FH4 Should have been when it arrived on Steam, - Buttons individually vibrating is amazing, great feels with this game, feels super intuitive,
We didn't get this Tech from MS games till now, it should be backwards implemented into FH4 or something,

Many improvements still ahead, but I'm sure we can overcome this.

Horizon Arcade:
just to inform you all, You can do an entire horizon arcade by yourself,
The system is now basing the totals required, on how many people join

I did a drift one now, all 3 phases, in 5 minutes,

Maybe some event-types don't allow this, but the total scores required are based on how many are participating in the event now! WHOOP WHOOP :D
#60 FORZA POINTS AWARDED:D

my Settings for GTX1070
nvidia control panel caps FPS at 67 ;) so it's more than VSYNC< and Vsync will work perfectly,
