    To get a ""rally'' experience with big ford trucks and open wide tracks that only run for 3 minutes, instead of actual rally cars and dangerous narrow stages is very disappointing. Again, in true Forza style, driving to get the races takes more time than the actual races. And each run time don't add up as it should in rally style. It just doesn't feel like a proper expansion because itTo get a ""rally'' experience with big ford trucks and open wide tracks that only run for 3 minutes, instead of actual rally cars and dangerous narrow stages is very disappointing.

It just doesn't feel like a proper expansion because it doesn't change any rule from the core game. The pace notes implementation is silly and useless, people quickly favor the race lines over it.
    So if you know anything at all from rally or played even the likes of Dirt before, avoid.    … Expand

    Rally races are somewhat okay, but the copilot instructions are absolutely terrible (preferring to tell you about chickens rather than the hairpin that is right behind them), there is a helicopter constantly blowing sand into your vision and the final race that you have to do regular mostly asphalt races to do to qualify? Of course it's a cross country race in buggies...

Of course it's a cross country race in buggies... Then there are bugs like every rally that starts on an incline starts me in reverse gear and my first upshift is always ignored, have to double tap to get to second gear. This is a disgrace.… Expand

    Rally Adventure may shine when it comes to visuals and pure entertainment, but as an expansion pack for the glorious Forza Horizon 5, you’d expect a much more comprehensive package. The substandard design of the roads and the nonexistence of official Rally rules are the main reasons why Rally Adventure is far behind the competition and it seems that Playground’s new policy is dragging the Forza series into a repetitive cycle.

    Forza Horizon 5 Rally Adventure is a lot of fun, but there are just minor annoyances that stop it being a stone cold classic. If you are still fully immersed in Forza Horizon 5 on a daily basis, this will be a hugely enjoyable accompaniment - a no-brainer. Just don’t expect perfection.

    The Rally Raid maintains the consistent performance of the Horizon series and aims to emulate rally racing through its weather, handling, and track design, providing an outstanding racing experience. However, beyond the racing experience, this DLC falls flat. The absence of distinctive scenery and insufficiently detailed roadbook creates a disappointing impression from the outset. Additionally, the lack of authenticity in the racing culture and the lacklustre storyline of subsequent events are unacceptable.
