Great job on the review and video. I always love feeling like I have a couch coop buddy even though we’ve never met. You really deliver a great vibe. I can honestly say I’ve been a fan of yours for years. Meeting all of your friends and animals over the years while you spoke to us about games and reminisced about nostalgic experiences. A lot of us myself included have lost the friends we once couch coop played with. You better than anyone have always delivered content that always made me feel a little like I made a friend and get to go on journeys with. Anyway I’m no weirdo but I’ve watched and enjoyed through a lot of good and bad and this channel has been a bit of a rock for me. Thank you for the great content over the years and thank you for selflessly devoting your time to giving a bunch of potential losers out there a friend to hang out with for a few minutes and feel back to normal again. All the best to you and your family.
Great video! Here's how I approach the difficulty for Forza games. The key to winning is tuning your cars. You don't need to max out your cars, but you should max them out for the level you wish to compete at (D, C, B, A...). The tuning can get quite complex, but luckily you don't have to do it yourself. Makes it easy when learning. Head to the festival or your house, get in the car you want to modify, go to upgrades and tuning, find tuning setups, press what used to be the select button on your controller to search, and select the class you want to race at. I find lower classes easier due to the slower speeds which give you more time to react to turns and obstacles. Then modify the race difficulty to your liking. If you find that you're losing or struggling perhaps the tune you've selected doesn't have a high enough top speed, acceleration, handling, etc. Or the car you've selected simply isn't the best for that class. Best of luck and I'm sure you'll be crushing those higher difficulties in no time.
For me it helps to stick with A or B tier races until you get good too. The races will scale to match you against the same rank of car, you don’t need to always pick the fastest one you have.
Agreed the tuning can make a huge difference. Case in point, the other day I was really struggling with a race on a wet road track when I realised the car had a drag tyre setup. The car was sliding all over the place and was near impossible to control. Changed it to a different setup with more suitable tyres etc and the race was easy in comparison.
As a mexican myself i love this game representing so well and detailed my own country and i love traveling trough it without much care, slamming trees, driving off cliffs and hitting speeds i would never ever come close to do irl (for obvious reasons), being the main reason why i love my racing games being more arcade-y. So yeah, this game just hits the right exact spot for being the racing game i was expecting since it was announced, it is just so much fun and looks impressive every time.
Dude, I love this game a lot, and I'm quite retro! Great to see the wide variety of games you cover and your openness to play just about anything good - from new hits like this to all the classics!
Love playing this on PC all ultra 4k.. looks amazing. The horizon game physics wise is the closest to the fun I used to have in the project Gotham racing series. pGR2 on the OG Xbox is still my fave racing game
This is pretty much how I approach racing games these days, just driving around to enjoy scenery it offers while listening to favorite music.Just like watching this video and hearing your radio voice.
Thank you SO much for this video, Metal Jesus! Forza Horizon 5 is such a masterpiece of a game, with its surreal beauty, customizability and charm!! I was never much into racing games (or cars for that matter) and this game changed my interests completely! I will never forget this game ♥♥♥
@@MetalJesusRocks I think this is longer than 12 miles. If that is 12 miles, you averaged just under 43 MPH. I think the game got the distance wrong. You only went under 40 MPH like 4 or 5 times. the VAST majority of the race, you where travailing at WELL over 100 MPH
12 miles in 0:17:34= 41MPH average. The graphics and feel are amazing, but something is off with the distance or timing. By my estimation, even with that 2 bad turns, he averaged well over 100MPH. He spent less than 25 seconds under 41MPH the entire race. The math don't add up. My math says this race is over 30 Miles long.
It is one of the games that literally has no flaws and only improves with each game, one thing I would find interesting to add to the game is more tuning and customizations, it would be perfect!
You know it is a really long race when you start daydreaming while playing it. I bought the series x just for this game one of my favorites titles. Thanks for the nice video 😊.
Agree about the difficulty curve. I'm not very good at racing games. But do also love the barn finds, danger sign jumps, photographing all the cars and trying to find all the bonus boards, which seem to have alot more that are harder to get compared to the ones in the previous Forza 4 game.
Nice video, MJ. Few things: 1) You can def do the Goliath race as often as you want. I'm not at my computer now, so i can't show you how but either you have to go back to the location on the map (not that treasure type map) or you can just drive there. There's five "boss" races coresponding to the race type. Colossus is road, Gauntlet is Dirt, Titan is Cross Country, and danggit, i forgot what the Street one is called, and Goliath is all three (excluding street, since there's no traffic). And you can reply them as much as you and and even edit them to be multiple laps as a custom race. 2) The arcade-y handling you're talking about can be done. There's extensive options for steering that you can tweak, not to mention tuning each car to drive like you're saying. Maybe a better thing would be to have steering options sharable, like the tuned cars, because it can be tedious to try to get the settings you want. 3) FH4 was in Great Britain, not England. 😝
Fantastic video! Can't go wrong with watching any racing content from Jason. Love your passion for (mostly) arcade racers! Forza is such a beatifull game.
Forza Horizon 5 is one of the best driving games I've ever played. Hours and hours of fun. I decided to do a DJ mix of the tracks from Hospital Radio across the 5 Horizon games after playing it. Visuals, cars, soundtrack. This game SLAPS!
I'm enjoying this game on PC. It can become a bit too samey after a while, but then give it a break for a week or so and I find I'm ready to play through the next set of events and races.
I entered the event when the game railroaded me into it and, unsuspectingly was like, aw I'll just take my trusty little Datsun 510 while I am driving it anyway... it felt like HOURS!!!
in my experience at greater difficulties is important to chose the right car with the right tuning, I'm not a tuner, but if you search and buy a tuning that seem to be appropiate it will help you a lot, and change the car acording to the race also help, is not the best idea to use a ferrari in cross country unless you have a very especial tuning to that.
I had to play this race for almost 3 hours trying to find the right car to play with and trying to win on unbeatable difficulty….but somehow managed to win with the Ferrari FXX-K evo ….fun race and a lotta money as well..
Totally love it... The brother in law and I played the shit out of PS1 Driver when it was first released day 1. Damn that freaking tutorial and damn the freaking president run. Love and blessings all!
This is the best racing game I ever played. It really makes games like burnout paradise feel outdated and I enjoyed that game too. I also recommend abusing the rewind feature on higher difficulties.
My favorite race was New York to San Francisco from The Crew 2 it was I believe 60+ miles and takes 28-34 minutes to complete with META Hypercars. So happy that The Crew 2 is going to get a graphics and 60FPS update in a couple months. May go back to The Crew 2 after that
I usually play on above average and sometimes highly skilled but it's very challenging to win. Every Forza game whether motosport or horizon, has incredible marathon races. Forza motosport 7 elite series races have 100 lap races around 4 mile long tracks. It took me 4 hrs to get through that absolutely brutal. For only a 50 gp achievement. Should've been like 200 points. But Forza Horizon is definetly the most magnificent of all racing games for sure. Completed all races in FH5 can't wait for the expansion to come out too.
I gradually increased the difficulty till I got to highly skilled, haven't dared to go over that yet, but I think it's my sweet spot. This is my first proper Forza experience, and it's so fun, but the most difficult thing for me to get to grips with is the different tuning/class of vehicle to go with and constantly re-tuning for the seasonal stuff, been watching a lot of youtube tutorials lol. Peace
I used to do indy 500 full race on forza 7 , Coca-Cola 600 on Nascar heat 3 and Monaco gp full race on f1 game in one weekend. . Talk about eyes glazed over after that weekend.
You gotta play tag it’s fun turn damage off and turn off maps and gaming tags and you got to find where you at or you could play with a mic with a group party and play infected where you go to the soccer field and one person is it and the whole group go in circles and or drive away try not to get caught then when you get caught or hit by another car your it and join his team to get others and the second person is it the next round but you can’t leave the soccer field lol it’s mad fun if you have a group more than 4 people or play cops and robbers or do a race in the street to see who’s the fastest also doing meet ups and do drifting but yeah you need to Practice on your driving a little bit and dressing and thinking turns you don’t have to go slow every corner so you won’t crash just got a learn the time in and turning and going fast at the same time
This is my favorite track to run in co-op with my buddies. If you tun of rain and traffic with hard ai. It turns into a agony run and you will feel it later. Give it a go sometime
This isn't an arcade game. It's sim-cade. The physics...It simulates body roll, tire traction (including tire heat), suspension travel and bumps, wheel alignment, aerodynamic, transmission gearing...etc It doesn't punish you like a full on simulation which is why this game is way more approachable than say motorsport or Gran Turismo.
start on easy and increase the difficulty gradually. Trust me, at lvl40 you're already skilled enough to take on average difficulty. I was losing interest because of being too easy or too hard but you do actually evolve after a while and find the sweet spot.
I agree on the travelling part. I really like to see new countries and places. Thats why I liked Disaster report 4. While not 100% you really get the japanese town and city feel it has. Forza 5 gives Mexico.
If you get a good tuning setup you can hit turns quite fast. A lot of the cars characteristics can be changed by upgrading and tuning. For example i have a friend that has a muscle car that will blow the doors off that Lambo. Theres a lot of customization that can been done with all the cars. Then the difficulty can be raised with the settings and more specifically the assists. If you want to really dive into the game i suggest checking out some of the many teams that are about. Most of them are really friendly and will be more than willing to show you the ropes. Might give you more of an appreciation and perspective on the motorsport side of things as well. You might meet up with some of the worlds fastest people too.
Cool to see you're having fun. But what do you mean by easy and normal? The assist settings? Because that only changes how your car drives. If you find the AI too fast, or too slow, you should tweak the drivatar difficulty. There are 9 of those in the game, so I'm sure you'll find a speed for them you like.
Do things to incrementally increase the difficulty for yourself. Turn off traction control, then try ABS, etc. Each one of those count as a difficulty setting, and give you more points per race. Once you master the cars without TCS and ABS, you'll be skilled enough to move onto a harder difficulty. Plus, disabling the TCS will vastly improve your drift game!
Gorgeous game. One I won’t buy as racers not my thing and no next gen console. Can you do more vids like this showing next gen games in action? So impressive.
I'm playing at a harder level on PC. There are a couple of tracks with a lot of jumps and curves, where I'd left the opponents a good half a lap behind by the end of the race.
The Horizon games make me wish I had XBox stuff more than any other games out there. I love the sorts of games that are both fun racing games AND chill driving games -- I was a huge fan of Test Drive Unlimited back in the day, before the Horizon games came around. TDU1 and 2 were a blast, and I've always wanted more since, but never quite talked myself into the other console. (There's a new Test Drive Unlimited game coming out this year though! Excited for that!) Cool vid though! Kinda neat just to watch and stare at all the stuff going by
I am very happy with FH5 for the most part. It’s nice driving on the right side of the road for a change in these games. I know you’re a big fan of racing games so I think your comments about the difficulty range are funny. I’m not the best racer, but on these I turn all driver assists off except for abs, use manual with clutch only, and have the drivatar difficulty set to highly skilled and generally don’t have much trouble. It really is just having the right car with the right tune for the track. The only real complaint I have is the same as every Forza game. The devs do not patrol the leaderboards at all. People use speed glitches and cheat the records. So even though I can get really high up on the leaderboards I’ll never be where I should be because of all the cheating.
Awesome video MJR. FH5 is a masterpiece and its the only game I've been playing since launch. it fixed alot of my problems about the previous title specially the car sounds and the location. It isn't perfect though like any other game it has some bugs here and there, the AI, and the online is not the best. But overall I mainly play single player and just enjoy driving, completing the car collection and festival playlist. The community on reddit can get toxic though there is alot of minor complaints that get blown out of proportion and make the game look like the next Cyberpunk 2077, maybe its just the vocal minority.
Lol I clicked on this video thinking it was a real car on a recommended channel and not a Metal Jesus video…geez I’m an idiot. Edit: wait…the time doesn’t match the speed or distance at all right? 12 miles at 80mph is 9 mins so…?
I started this one on my PC the same day I picked up my first FFB racing wheel - and I suck. :) But... I suck worse using a controller and even worse when using one of the external views instead of cockpit modes. You're killing it in this race. I'm going to start and hopefully progress in earnest now on my XBOne after taking a bit of time to set up the wheel properly (versus no setup at all previously)
Metal Jesus, you can change several difficulty options to get more XP but can keep AI very low in talent. That will make it better or worse overall. I reccommend super easy AI, and several simulation style options. Pick hard or normal, but lower the AI. Or, vice versa for tougher AI races. Traction control always a necessity!
such a great game You can replay the goliath anytime after you unlock it, the only thing you can't replay is the initial drive which is a shame because they are always fun.
Great video! and great to get your thoughts on this game!, I recently finished playing it myself. Just wondering about the difficulty; I am not that great when I play in the standard third person camera mode but when I switch to first person, I am able to play on 'Above Average' as I find first person more fun and easier to control the car, like as if you were driving an actual car. So I was just wondering if you have played in first person and what are your thoughts on it?
hi there in america. thanks for all the great videos for years. can u maby answer me a something? do u have any idea when nascar heat 6 came out and wich engine it uses? im playing part 5 in 100 percent mode. such a fun witht caramolage also
@@MetalJesusRocks thanks for the reply man! It's absolutely insane what this next generation of consoles can do. I'm playing on a new computer with an an RTX 3060, and pretty sure the series x visuals are better. I would like to upgrade to at least a 3070ti at some point, but until card prices come down, screw that :P Getting better visuals in a 500 dollar console than a 1700 dollar (inflated because of gfx card prices but still applies) PC is absolutely wild man.
You can search blueprint races that people have made and someone may have remade the goliath in that and it should be located on the map the proper race but if you can't find it that's the other way. People created these long races for money farming like they may have made same one with a lot more laps
Maybe I'm wrong since I didn't play Forza for too long but isn't there a little menu where you can set how "arcady" you want Forza to be? I think is like "drive assist" maybe it's not the same thing.
You seem to be a little too impressed with something the first game was doing all the way back on the 360 where you can drive anywhere and everywhere with no loading screens. I don't remember if there was any 12 or 30 mile race but the idea you can drive from one end of a massive map to the other without any technical limitations has always been there for the Horizon series.
Forza horizon 4 was NOT set in England, it was set in the UK hence Edinburgh making an appearance. Love your content, just want to make sure you know the difference between England vs the UK
I've been addicted to this since day 1 somehow managed to get in top 100 hall of fame, I play on highly skilled they're constantly on your tail on that level 😂 I've done a few unbeatable videos on my channel they're tough can't make any mistakes on them
12 miles in 0: 17 :34= 41MPH average. The graphics and feel are amazing, but something is off with the distance or timing. By my estimation, even with that 2 bad turns, he averaged well over 100MPH. He spent less than 25 seconds under 41MPH the entire race. The math don't add up. My math says this race is over 30 Miles long.
![โรงเรียนดัดสันดาน นักเรียนเถื่อน..!! [โรงเรียนไดเม่]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/vRKPeXn4Fl4/mqdefault.jpg)
after you have unlocked the goliath you can replay it at any time its located on the very right side of the map in the Playa Azul
That one is super fun, I just used a regular Bronco for it but you build up so much speed going downhill 💨
Which I'm glad to see as I love ALL of these endurance races.
Great job on the review and video. I always love feeling like I have a couch coop buddy even though we’ve never met. You really deliver a great vibe.

When it snows it’s funny and fun cause we drift on it like real life
The over emphasis of shadows/light make it really look like a video game
The level of detail and realism on these racing games never ceases to amaze me!

Played Horizon 4, made me get Horizon 5 day one, it's just as fun as 4 was perhaps even more. Cant wait for the expansions.
Feels like an old school test drive race
I think both colossus and goliath are ~55km long. You can race them as often as you want later in the game.
That’s 4K look great this fun
It is one of the games that literally has no flaws and only improves with each game, one thing I would find interesting to add to the game is more tuning and customizations, it would be perfect!
They should add bikes...
@@emulation2369 I dunno, might spoil the broth. Need to set one in Japan and one in Germany.
Forza Horizon 5 is my first time playing the series and I am loving it!
I'm more of a Forza motorsport guy but horizon is really fun to just drive around in for a bit, the sense of speed is really nice
You know it is a really long race when you start daydreaming while playing it. I bought the series x just for this game one of my favorites titles. Thanks for the nice video 😊.
The graphics this games pumps out is incredible, I really should get back to completion stuff but gotta love how it looks and feels!

Great Review My friend. Greetings from Mexico. Thanks!
Hey metal Jesus I love the videos
Playing this on a 70" 4k TV 👍🤘
Fantastic video! Can't go wrong with watching any racing content from Jason. Love your passion for (mostly) arcade racers! Forza is such a beatifull game.
Thanks a ton!
Now you need The Cannonball Run theme by Ray Stevens
That would be AMAZING! 😂
Didn't Test Drive Unlimited have a race that took you all the way around Hawaii? That one was epic!
Forza horizon copied that idea.
I just finished the Marathon (18 mi) with the Bugatti Chiron. It was like driving a rocket powered yacht the entire time. Awesome game!
Gran Turismo 1 on PS One last several tracks had to drive for 2,5 hours without break! Ahh good memories!
Love it. Thanks metal Jesus. Regards from Colombia.
Great driving Jason🤘

You need alil practice on turning plus you could drift alil ahead before turning it’s like real life
I’ve been playing since the early release and am level 480 🤷🏻♂️ , plus their are multiple difficulty settings.
Try disabling assists. They are meant to be used to dictate difficulty beyond what the drivatar difficulty offers.
Played 80h already. Lvl 200+.still amazing to play and get the cars. This game is a Goliath. ;)

@@retrogamerfan123 what does that have to do with what op said?
I still have 3 I need to get back to. I don't like realistic racing games but this between arcade and sim level is great.
I agree on the travelling part. I really like to see new countries and places. Thats why I liked Disaster report 4. While not 100% you really get the japanese town and city feel it has. Forza 5 gives Mexico.
Test Drive Unlimited 2 had a race around whole Ibiza island, about 45min long
If you get a good tuning setup you can hit turns quite fast. A lot of the cars characteristics can be changed by upgrading and tuning. For example i have a friend that has a muscle car that will blow the doors off that Lambo. Theres a lot of customization that can been done with all the cars. Then the difficulty can be raised with the settings and more specifically the assists. If you want to really dive into the game i suggest checking out some of the many teams that are about. Most of them are really friendly and will be more than willing to show you the ropes. Might give you more of an appreciation and perspective on the motorsport side of things as well. You might meet up with some of the worlds fastest people too.
Cool to see you're having fun. But what do you mean by easy and normal? The assist settings? Because that only changes how your car drives. If you find the AI too fast, or too slow, you should tweak the drivatar difficulty. There are 9 of those in the game, so I'm sure you'll find a speed for them you like.
Do things to incrementally increase the difficulty for yourself. Turn off traction control, then try ABS, etc. Each one of those count as a difficulty setting, and give you more points per race. Once you master the cars without TCS and ABS, you'll be skilled enough to move onto a harder difficulty. Plus, disabling the TCS will vastly improve your drift game!
Gorgeous game. One I won’t buy as racers not my thing and no next gen console. Can you do more vids like this showing next gen games in action? So impressive.
Other players seeing your license plate name and thinking you're a huge Michael Jackson fan 😂 MJROCKS
I'm playing at a harder level on PC. There are a couple of tracks with a lot of jumps and curves, where I'd left the opponents a good half a lap behind by the end of the race.
The Horizon games make me wish I had XBox stuff more than any other games out there. I love the sorts of games that are both fun racing games AND chill driving games -- I was a huge fan of Test Drive Unlimited back in the day, before the Horizon games came around. TDU1 and 2 were a blast, and I've always wanted more since, but never quite talked myself into the other console.
(There's a new Test Drive Unlimited game coming out this year though! Excited for that!)
Cool vid though! Kinda neat just to watch and stare at all the stuff going by
Such a badass game.
got a little over 200 hrs in the game and just started using the logitech g923 and i cant wait for the next 200 hours.
I am very happy with FH5 for the most part. It’s nice driving on the right side of the road for a change in these games. I know you’re a big fan of racing games so I think your comments about the difficulty range are funny. I’m not the best racer, but on these I turn all driver assists off except for abs, use manual with clutch only, and have the drivatar difficulty set to highly skilled and generally don’t have much trouble. It really is just having the right car with the right tune for the track.
The only real complaint I have is the same as every Forza game. The devs do not patrol the leaderboards at all. People use speed glitches and cheat the records. So even though I can get really high up on the leaderboards I’ll never be where I should be because of all the cheating.
Awesome video MJR. FH5 is a masterpiece and its the only game I've been playing since launch. it fixed alot of my problems about the previous title specially the car sounds and the location. It isn't perfect though like any other game it has some bugs here and there, the AI, and the online is not the best. But overall I mainly play single player and just enjoy driving, completing the car collection and festival playlist. The community on reddit can get toxic though there is alot of minor complaints that get blown out of proportion and make the game look like the next Cyberpunk 2077, maybe its just the vocal minority.
Lol I clicked on this video thinking it was a real car on a recommended channel and not a Metal Jesus video…geez I’m an idiot.
Edit: wait…the time doesn’t match the speed or distance at all right? 12 miles at 80mph is 9 mins so…?
I started this one on my PC the same day I picked up my first FFB racing wheel - and I suck. :) But... I suck worse using a controller and even worse when using one of the external views instead of cockpit modes. You're killing it in this race. I'm going to start and hopefully progress in earnest now on my XBOne after taking a bit of time to set up the wheel properly (versus no setup at all previously)
Metal Jesus, you can change several difficulty options to get more XP but can keep AI very low in talent. That will make it better or worse overall. I reccommend super easy AI, and several simulation style options. Pick hard or normal, but lower the AI. Or, vice versa for tougher AI races. Traction control always a necessity!
Such a beautiful and amazing game.
such a great game
You can replay the goliath anytime after you unlock it, the only thing you can't replay is the initial drive which is a shame because they are always fun.
Great video! and great to get your thoughts on this game!, I recently finished playing it myself. Just wondering about the difficulty; I am not that great when I play in the standard third person camera mode but when I switch to first person, I am able to play on 'Above Average' as I find first person more fun and easier to control the car, like as if you were driving an actual car. So I was just wondering if you have played in first person and what are your thoughts on it?
hi there in america. thanks for all the great videos for years. can u maby answer me a something? do u have any idea when nascar heat 6 came out and wich engine it uses? im playing part 5 in 100 percent mode. such a fun witht caramolage also
you may have mentioned it in the video and I just missed it, but what system are you playing this on? or graphics card used if its PC?
Xbox Series X 🤘
@@MetalJesusRocks thanks for the reply man! It's absolutely insane what this next generation of consoles can do. I'm playing on a new computer with an an RTX 3060, and pretty sure the series x visuals are better. I would like to upgrade to at least a 3070ti at some point, but until card prices come down, screw that :P
Getting better visuals in a 500 dollar console than a 1700 dollar (inflated because of gfx card prices but still applies) PC is absolutely wild man.
You can search blueprint races that people have made and someone may have remade the goliath in that and it should be located on the map the proper race but if you can't find it that's the other way. People created these long races for money farming like they may have made same one with a lot more laps
cool review
Maybe I'm wrong since I didn't play Forza for too long but isn't there a little menu where you can set how "arcady" you want Forza to be? I think is like "drive assist" maybe it's not the same thing.
You seem to be a little too impressed with something the first game was doing all the way back on the 360 where you can drive anywhere and everywhere with no loading screens. I don't remember if there was any 12 or 30 mile race but the idea you can drive from one end of a massive map to the other without any technical limitations has always been there for the Horizon series.
Forza horizon 4 was NOT set in England, it was set in the UK hence Edinburgh making an appearance. Love your content, just want to make sure you know the difference between England vs the UK
I've been addicted to this since day 1 somehow managed to get in top 100 hall of fame, I play on highly skilled they're constantly on your tail on that level 😂
I've done a few unbeatable videos on my channel they're tough can't make any mistakes on them
I just started playing in on unbeatable, it seems easier for some reason haha and How did you get that car?
I love forza horizon games
12 miles in 0: 17 :34= 41MPH average. The graphics and feel are amazing, but something is off with the distance or timing. By my estimation, even with that 2 bad turns, he averaged well over 100MPH. He spent less than 25 seconds under 41MPH the entire race. The math don't add up. My math says this race is over 30 Miles long.
Wish you could replay the game intro sequence again also
Forza Horizon is such a fun game!
You can do the Goliath race again in the online creator mode section of the menu.
Oh really?! Good to know, thanks
@@MetalJesusRocks you can also just go to it on the map and press X
