    Forza Horizon 5 není tak úžasná, jak si lidé myslí.
    I přes to pátý díl trhá rekordy a hraje to miliony hráčů... ale proč?
    A proč má nyní úpadek? Zkusím to v 5000 znacích vysvětlit.

    Začnu první očividnou změnou. Z náladové Británie se dostáváme do Mechýka.
    Mexiko je nádherné a nabízí vám malebnou krajinu, po které můžete jezdit, jak chcete
    Je toho tu celkem dost co dělat, Ale ne vše při začátku. V novém díle se vám závody neodemknou po určitý čas, ale je nutné skrze speciální závody, které to teprve
    odemknou.

    V závodech si můžete jezdit s absolutně s čímkoliv, veškeré vozy jsou tříděné do výkonnostní kategorie.
    Vše lze prasácky upravit na každou potřebu.

    Když už zmiňuji upravování vozidel, tak je to v mnoha případech velká slabota.
    Úprava výkonu je rozdělena jen na slabší a silnější díly.
    Vizuální úprava je tu minimální a jen pár aut má řádný tuning
    Nejvíce člověk stráví v pokročilém tuningu, kde si hrajete s posuvníkem, nebo si stáhnete od ostatních.

    Můžete si upravovat auto, dát nátěr, nálepy. Nebo si stáhnout prostě.

    Za celou dobu hraní získáte spoustu vozidel a hodně zdarma
    Člověk má velký výběr různé značky a podznačky aut. Od západu až po východ. Nejstarší vozy až ty moderní odpady. Můžete jezdit jakýkoliv závod s čímkoliv, pokud nejsou daná omezení. Dokud je vaše auto správně vyladěné, tak obstojí ve vybraných závodech.

    A rád bych se zastavil u závodů. AI mají stejný debilní problém jako každá druhá závodní hra.
    AI a vy máte odlišnou fyziku. Zatímco hráč musí počítat s dobře laděnou fyzikou, která není perfektní..
    Tak AI si bude jezdit po svém a dosti neférově.
    Nejhorší věc - postavení bodů
    Proč to dávají tak úzké?! Jediný důvod, proč existuje doopravdy vracení času, je aby se člověk mohl vrátit když minul bod.

    Hra mimochodem vypadá opravdu velice hezky a pak používat fotoaparát ve hře je pak jedna velká radost.
    Jen je fakt na prd, že noc trvá tak 2 minuty.

    Některá auta zní opravdu dobře, ale následná vylepšení, ale vylepšení jako výfuk to kazí Proč nelze zvuk upravit samostatně, nechápu

    Krom závodění lze dělat aktivity. Což je zábava dělat, splnit to na tři hvězdy je občas fakt těžké, není to zadarmo a člověk si musí vytvořit nějaké rychlostní monstrum a někdy vymýšlet různé věci a jak to obejít.
    Nijak tohle neberu negativně, prostě jen jako zmínku to mám.

    Obcházení a hlavně zneužívání je oblíbená aktivita hráčů a údajně málokdo to hraje poctivě. Pomocí zneužívání fyzik nebo systému odměn u aut lidé vydělávají miliony, získávají auta lusknutím prstu
    A to nejsou cheaty, ale zneužívání herních mechanik.
    Tohle vše má vliv na ekonomiku hry, protože tu existuje aukce, kde si hráč kupuje od jiných lidí vozidla.

    Další věc která absolutně nefunguje je online režim a coop.
    Velká hra, která má potíže i po vydání, vítejte v budoucnosti ve světě hraní.
    Neustále odpojování z online režimu. Některé online funkce padají furt.
    A když už jste byl připojen tak okolní hráči na vás dělali tak maximálně !Adios! .
    Náhodné mizení a objevování. To samé u vašich kámošů, všeci byli duchové v Mexiku. Hra založená na online funkcí a nefachalo to… Hrůza
    Rád hraji závodní hry, až moc. A FH5 mne bavilo, ale nejedná se o žádný dobrý titul ve skutečnosti.
    Je to dobrá jazda, ale stejná Jízda už od třetího dílů
    stejné jako FH4,, že se jedná spíše o datadisk.
    Nevytváří žádné nové unikátní mechaniky, je to vše furt stejné dokola.
    Ani ten ty jejich spešl závody
    Jenž obsahují nějaký ten voice acting, ale ten je tak Béčkový, že ať to radši nedělají, když je to suché jak staré oplatky. Ani ten Eliminator, což jsou jen duely ke konci. Hra vyniká jenom tím, že hráči jsou mezi sebou propojení. Uživatelské závody, nátěry, tuning a i eventy. To je jediná věc, čím se odlišuje. Ale to by musel ten online normálně fungovat, a hlavně ty xbox/windows funkce Proč tedy si to lidí kupují a hrají? Je to přívětivá hra s dobrým prostředí a velkým vozovým parkem Je to tzv Casual Racing game. Každý mamlas to může hrát. Trhu chybí něčím unikátním závodní hra. Možná dělat závodní hry je těžké a nevyplatí se. Nikdo neví popravdě. Forza se zdá jako dobrý výběr... a taky že je, ale není hodna býti nějakou úžasnou závodní hrou a už ne hrou roku. Je to stejná hra už od FH3. Je to dobrý požitek, ale pravděpodobně lidi nebudou na tohle vzpomínat nostalgicky. Hra má vše, ale i zároveň nic. 7/10 Nejedná se o žádný extrémně výborný titul, trh je hladový.

    It's still a great franchise and a great game, but I've liked it a lot less than 4. It's the same as the previous game with a new map.
    It lacks innovation, different types of tests and another style of things

    I still recommend it, it's very enjoyable

    It's a step down from FH4, map is boring, hot wheels dlc is weak. Only thing they did great are car sounds. For me after this much time game still has some graphical artifacts - no matter if it's set to ultra or extreme still same bugs. I regret purchasing premium edition. Definetly not worth the money.

    Just a lame copy of previous chapter, seemed too boring. But still a perfect arcade racing game with amazing tracks, breathtaking views and graphics, and nice music. The multiplayer is still kinda bad, why not make simple rooms for each race like in Gran Turismo or Mario Kart... Another drawback is overcomplicated menu and navigation...

    Beautiful graphic and nice driving as well as the car sounds. But the story is very very bad. Also the map is overfilled with icons. Less is sometimes more! Sometimes the programm is crashing which is very disappointing. Interacting with other players is also not good.

    That game has so much potential to be a great game but unfortunately they make just a average game!

    Nothing that screams innovative or new from the previous Horizon titles.

    It was just an ok experience. I'm more of a track racer at heart.

    Good it's on Game Pass, but I personally wouldn't fork out £49.99 to play it.

    The Map creator is utter garbage, and The Livery Editor is even worse, and now they want to ban 3rd party programs from the game because they are too incompetent or lazy to add the proper features and tools themselves.

    Racing vs AI is just garbage. The AI is just stupid, and changing the difficulty level just adds cheats to the AI, esp Launch. To make up for how terrible they are, although it is funny to watch them crash in Cross Country from not understanding how to turn. But in Road Racing they should be somewhat decent.

    Hopefully they can improve the game, as it's mostly simple stuff besides the AI I guess, but just give us more fleshed outmodes/features rather than adding random-ass modes that are unfinished. There is so much what could have been.

    There surely are 50+h of solid fun to be had. However, overall, the game is very disappointing and far from being a masterpiece.

However, overall, the game is very disappointing and far from being a masterpiece. It feels like a lot of wasted potential, with lazy and cheap design decisions that make the game worse than its predecessor, especially in QoL and endgame. Yes, particle effects, lighting and texture quality have improved significantly, but at the cost of running choppy, 20-30% slower and/or very aliased. The soundtrack is shockingly bad.

    There are many examples of questionable design. Online Racing is a joke, there is no possibility to choose what races you want to do. There was an option to tune your car before a race. This was then abused, you were able to select an overpowered tune - so instead of limiting the choice they just removed the option altogether! Now you have to drive back and forth to your home or a festival location to tune your car. There was an option to do Horizon Tour races from the menu, they removed it. Now you have to drive to the map marker every time. There still is no acceptable solution for browsing custom races, you have to put in codes from reddit like it was Nintendo in 2009. Don't even think of the option to create your own championships.

    There is no meaningful progression, e.g. unlocking cars, classes or tuning parts. So they nerfed wheelspins that you only get 1k rewards regularly. In online free roam, people still just vanish to thin air. In menus, races don't even have individual thumbnails and are stripped of infos like weather or time or class. Most of the story missions take 5 min to get to, watch 1 min of boring cutscene to then drive some nonsensical car crosscountry for 53 seconds. For every minute of racing you have to do 10 minutes of stuff. It's ridiculous. You can drive in sandstorms but the vegetation does not react to it whatsoever, it's just a sepia filter. The seasons just alternate between wet and brown. Not to mention the plethora of bugs.

    When you (can) open up and start the game for the first time it looks like a delicious meal with appetizer, entrée, main and dessert, plus a cigar and a wonderful wine, but you then discover this is all put in a blender and spoon-fed to you until you vomit.

    No doubt this is one of the economically most succesful titles of all times, given how much is recycled and sourced out and how well it sold. I can't help but feel like in a fast food shop where they intentionally design the space so you don't stay for too long. Would be nice if Mike Brown actually would be working on improving the game design instead of sitting on a couch all the time.

I am not sure how exactly this can be avoided, but maybe work on the world itself more. Its a gorgeous massive map, but what is the point? It feels extremely empty. The online game modes have good ideas, but the size of the map makes them very unfulfilling. Sense of exploration is non-existent, the "story" tid bits are awful and the voice acting is lack luster. I hope future instalments try to improve more significantly as there is almost no difference between 5th and 4th instalments. Expand

    It's a good looking game and the driving is solid, but it feels like Forza Horizon 4,5. The new map is better then the map in FH4, but it feels to much of the same. When they make FH6, i hope they take a look at Riders Republic, and get some inspiration, and try out totally new stuff, because it's getting stale.

    Not a bad game, just not a necessary game.

    En esta nueva edicion, personalmente estuvo por debajo de la anterior, es muuy similar, el sistema de carreras, misiones, desafios, etc. Pero ah cambiado un poco la jugabilidad, es decir, ahora hacer drift es super facil lo cual es algo positivo, ahora subir de nivel cuesta un poco mas y a su vez tenes mucho menos sorteos o sorteos especiales.

    La variedad de autos es super amplia, lamentablemente faltan algunos autos de los ultimos 2 años, que se agregaran como DLCs y de pago, El sonido se mejoro muchisimo, y ahora cambia dependiendo de las mejoras que tenga el auto. Me sorprendio mucho la ausencia de Alfa Romeo y Fiat, siendo 2 marcas muy representativas del mundo automotor, en el Forza Horizon 4 si estaban

    Graficamente es espectacular, no me gusto mucho que en esta edicion se centraran en el fotorealismo de los escenarios, me hubiera gustado que invertieran en mejorar los autos ya que hay algunos interiores o moteres que no estan modelados.

    Noto que hay mucha menor variedad de musicas que en el juego anterior, ya despues de un par de horas de juego ya se empiezan a repetir una y otra vez, ademas de que algunas canciones tienen partes que censuran la voz

    Ahora vienen los puntos negativos y es la mala optimizacion que tiene el juego y la cantidad de fallos; abuso excesivo de recursos, me llego a consumir el 100% del CPU y los 16Gb de RAM, caidas extremas de fps obligandome a reiniciar el juego, crasheos, bugs visuales, y muchisimos problemas para encontrar partidas y conectarme a internet.

    The graphics, lighting and weather effects are some of the best we've seen in a racing game, but of course it's all about the cars. Although this is an arcade racer that does not focus on realism but rather on short and fast action, the cars behave truthfully and react differently whether you are driving on a track, on the street or off road. The controls have been kept simple, making the game accessible to just about anyone. Altogether, this makes Forza Horizon 5 the most fun racing game of the moment.

    Forza Horizon 5 still is a great racing game, but there’s no denying that the series is in a torpor-like state. It’s obvious that Playground is afraid not only to innovate, but to make any sort of significant change to a successful formula. [Issue#257, p.64]

    I don't think there's a motoring enthusiast who won't be excited about Forza Horizon 5, with a slight caveat for those who have had their fill of Forza Horizon 4 and might want more of the same - though honestly, I can't imagine how the formula could be improved upon, which in the arcade driving department is bordering on perfection. It promises and delivers an incomparably customizable driving experience, with dream-cars, in breathtaking landscapes.
