    Soy game for those who don’t know what deodorant is. I advise all Forza players to take a shower and throw away the disc with this garbage. Worst racing game ever.

    It's still an alright racing game, but it has lost a lot of the charm of its predecessor.

    It's fine. It's fun for a couple days/weeks, after that it's repeating itself but not a bad game tho

    worse than its predecessors, reading content missing from the game that was already in previous titles and selling it as "new" content
    had a good foundation but a new game wasn't really necessary could've just updated the old one.

    Sem dúvidas o melhor jogo de corrida arcade. É o primeiro jogo de carro que tenho várias horas de gameplay, difícil enjoar.

    Forza Horizon 5 není tak úžasná, jak si lidé myslí.

    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.

    Was good but over time this has got more and more buggy just feels like paper over cracks with every update. Game crashes after an hour, game sometimes refuses to start.

    Great when you can get it going. Not so when it doesn't. Frustrating doesn't describe it.

    Playground games really did a decent job on Forza Horizon 5.

The only major problem I seemed to steadily encounter was an issue staying connected to the servers. (I have not been on recently to see if this has been addressed yet)

    Graphics are stellar, car selection is top notch, story is serviceable enough, and the controls are amazing.

    If you are looking for an arcade racer, this game definitely will satisfy.

    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

    I have played Forza Horizon games from the start and LOVED the first and second ones. I didn't play 3 or 4 much but really wanted to get back into the series with 5. Its visually amazing but very casual and does not feel like its about the racing anymore and its just more about the community.
    Great fun but I definitely laugh at people who call this a "sim racer" somehow. Its an action

    When the game works, its great. Unfortunately, it crashes constantly. I worked through every troubleshooting step as well as contacted support who were absolutely useless. 0/10 as a game must be playable to even make the scoreboard.

    In my opinion, the developers made the game to make the players suffer. Worst part of the series. There is no good optimization, management has become worse, a lot of things have been "cut out", and they spat in the face of every player.

    This is a great driving experience with stunning visuals.
    This is not a great game.
    There is absolutely zero new stuff added when compared to FH4 or even FH3. The only thing that's different is the upgraded graphics and improved car sounds. Most of the cars drive the same with zero difference to the handling. The story is trash. It doesn't motivate the player to explore anything

    The story is trash. It doesn't motivate the player to explore anything as you already start with "everything" as a special person on the festival.

    The worst thing about this game is the progression system. In less than 5 hours of playing you can get a great car and loose all the motivation to unlock other cars.

    The map is diverse and in some places detailed but still really empty and it can get boring very quickly as it's not big.

    Forza Horizon 5 is not a great game. Stop giving it 10's and 9's only based on its looks.

    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.
