    Para um lançamento, está nota 10, sem bus para mim, rodou no meu velho guerreiro AMD 970 de 2010 junto com uma RX 580, a 40 FPS e em multimonitor 3 telas 5760x1080, incrível. Parabéns Microsoft.

    I have a playtime of 24 hours as of this review, got it on XBOX game pass 3 days ago. I liked it so much I bought the VIP bundle. I'm not even a car guy.

    Fantastic game with the right amount of technical tuning. You can just slap on the best modifications to boost your stats but that doesn't mean you're going to keep it on the track, let alone win the race.

    Fantastic game with the right amount of technical tuning. You can just slap on the best modifications to boost your stats but that doesn't mean you're going to keep it on the track, let alone win the race. You can do that and get away with it for the most part on some cars, but if you want to top leader boards, you need fine-tuning.

    Despite being review bombed because of launch technical issue for some people. I've had 1 issue, solved it by turning off my power management program, EVGA precision. No problems since.

    The game has a wide variety of cars that you can either buy or win in a slot machine-type game. You can get some pretty amazing cars from the start. If the idea of a game to you is to have the fastest car that can smoke anything on normal difficulty, this game isn't for you. If you like collecting and racing, trying to 100% a large map with tons of content. If you like trying out different cars to see which one suits you, instead of chasing stat scores, then this game is for you.    … Expand

    Beautiful! Well optimized, and awesome gameplay and design. Only thing that needs work is the netcode / servers which disconnect quite a lot. Also, the fact you can't mute other players preventing this from being a 10 score, nothing worse than hearing a whiney kids drill music while shouting at his mom about his dinner.

    Also i didnt factor this into my review BUT this game also really needs VR Support.    … Expand

    Forza Horizon 5 é um game de corrida com foco no mundo aberto, eu joguei o game no lançamento pela plataforma Steam, o game está com gráficos lindos, um amplo mundo aberto, uma gameplay melhorada em relação ao fh4, contudo, o game chegou com muitos bugs, desde problemas nos servidores e mal otimização no Pc, também bugs sonoros e a "textura argilizada" no draw distance.

    There is something sus going on when a game receives 9 /10 scores before launch then 5/10 from actual people. Its so disappointing, I was hoping for a bigger better experience. But this game is no different from the past 4 games.. if you dropped me in the middle of rhe map and asked me which game I was playing i wouldn't be able to tell of it was FH3, 4 or 5.

Ignore all these toxic reviews Horizon 5 is exactly what it sets out to be and is fantastic at it. A gigantic playbox full of cars where they are customizable to a further extent than previous installments. You can now install body-kits, adjust the any car to suit offroad, drift or racing and pretty much choose whatever style you want to play. Whether that be rally races, street races, close circuit races, just cruising around in the beautiful world, drifting online with others, do custom car meets etc. It literally gives you the keys to the cars and says go have fun. It's what I used to dream of when playing with Match Box cars on my carpet when I was little. So to anyone just wanting a geniunly good time doing whatever they want with cars this game is perfect.… Expand

    Поиграл в игру пару дней нормально (Если не считать бесконечные проблемы с сетью), но теперь начались бесконечные вылеты игры. Также в онлайне часто встречаются невидимые машины других игроков. В мультиплеере часто встречается проблема, что другие игроки не могут выбрать другую машину отличную от хозяина лобби. В сетевой игре часто происходят дисконекты.Поиграл в игру пару дней нормально (Если не считать бесконечные проблемы с сетью), но теперь начались бесконечные вылеты игры.

    Constantly crashing on PC and contains unskippable cutscenes. Instead of playing, you're effectively constantly watching the same videos over and over and waiting for the next crash.

    Forza is one of my all-time favorite series. I've bought Xbox one just for this one game, having ps4 and Pc for other games. I have perfect 4k gameplay in FH4 but I can't even play FH5 without problems.
    "0" is for the technical level of the game for PC. It's the first thing the game should have. Fix it and I will see what we have later.

    By the way. Physics became worse for my taste.

    It's the same cringe-fest as Horizon 3 and 4. Sounds are better but still not as good as in Horizon 2. The gameplay is as arcade and as primitive as it was in 3 and 4.

    Extremely easy, very similar quests, no ranked adventure. High price tag if buying premium. For sure not worth it. Basically it is just a "Forza Horizon 4 reforged" where graphic is a little better, but with less things to do and no challenge. You can most likely reverse trough drift zones and get 3 stars. VERY long loading times. If you like drift then this game will not be the one to go for.

    Love the game. Runs great on my PC at extreme settings. The detail in the cars and landscapes is amazing. The story is more geared toward pushing you into various tasks and races, which isn’t the most engaging, but I’m an RPG/MMO guy, so this is probably sufficient for a racer. The only thing lacking is the character models, but they are less of a fixture than the cars and terrain. Still aLove the game. Runs great on my PC at extreme settings.

    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.
