Loving the anti lag so far, something about a Turbo R on off-road tyres with anti lag feels so wrong, but so right. hehe

Not loving that it keeps randomly pinning challenges/goals or whatever they are on my HUD every five minutes in some glaring purple box! Wish there was a way to disable that.
Go in to the challenges and unpin it. Not sure if there's a general setting to turn pins off though.

I've been doing that, I think it's just bugged - it'll last about five minutes before another one pops up. I'll need to bite the bullet and complete the bloody things! hehe

Unpin it each time you load into the game but once you have done all the challenges, it doesnt do it. Why it does pin it each time is annoying.

Anyone got the CT4-V Blackwing yet?

It’s an automatic but changes gear like it’s a manual which is odd

Well it lasted me less than 7 days, it's missing something and overall I felt it was way too short and small of an area.

I did slate this at early release but having played it for a while more during the holidays it's been pretty fun. Good to kill time purely as an arcade racer, I have now completed all the main events and I'm now in the Legendary Hall of Fame - ranked 12 million'th and something on the overall leader board!

I still have some gripes, regurgitated car lists over and over. I know they throw a few new models in but by in large it could be better with some completely new cars.

Handling felt really different from FH4 but I feel like I've adjusted to playing it now.

I can't figure out the large jumps and landings, sometimes I get away with it and other times I end up with damage usually at the end of a long race and lose power and steering. Very annoying. Do I have to have the off-road suspension equipped for these off road races all the time for the jumps?

There are over 700 cars, a good mix too of ones you cannot acquire in-game so have to do the Forza playlist. That keeps me coming back every week for the last couple years to keep getting the new cars they add (maybe 2 a month now, sometimes 4).

RE the large jumps - it depends on your car but I have found very lightly tapping the breaks before lift off helps to ensure the car lands more on the nose which increases stability when you land
