Coming from someone that’s playing their first forza game…the information given at first was a lot to take in especially seeing the game for the first time and not knowing at all what to do first or how to access all the free gifts that come with the game. After watching this video however, I feel a lot better with the game and understand a lot more about the game and what I need to do to get going. Thanks so much for giving all the information to get started!
Definitely look up tuning videos on here as well. Tuning your cars will help you control them. For example, you build a car up and when you try to accelerate your tires spin and you cant control it. Tuning will change that, and change the whole game for you! Good luck! Ive been playing since the original, and its a Blast!!
@@kingkonggg6941 mane this game is confusing af how do I even get money and my cars are slow af I got a c8 shits is trash and zL1 keeps going out of control and this is my first time even trying a forza game 🤦🏾♂️
Me thinks young Jake made this video a little while ago. His plate is still the FH4 style, his Forzathon Shop is working (and has the wrong car), and the DeLorean is a reward in his Festival Playlist. The information however is still good....
This is such a good explainer video. I have played for about 5 hours and have quite enjoyed just doing the random challenges but I honestly didn’t really understand how I was unlocking things. Such a good overview of what I should be focusing on to progress!
For real tho. I got dis for my birthday and I didn't know what to do except drive around. It was so frustrating and I thought the balloons were something but when I got there it wasn't. 😂🥵
Great video even though it's two years old! Got a question for all the Forza fans.... Now that I started the Forza franchise with Forza 5, would I be very disappointed if I play Forza 4 now? Is it very far away from 5 in things like control/handling features and gameplay? Or is it just slightly older graphics and not much else changed other than location and vehicle selection?
I miss the simple UI and gameplay of Need for Speed Underground 1 & 2 era. I think Forza Horizon 5 has confusingly excessive amount of different collectibles, points, rewards. Sometimes developers should know less is more. They just make things unnecessarily complicated. Why is XP and cash rewards not enough? Why can't events pop up on our maps progressively based on the difficulty as we beat races. So many menus, so many conditions... I feel myself lost. This is not the feeling I'm after when I come from work and sit on couch to play something. They lost me for this reason. I just killed an hour or two and lost interest due to sheer amount of details, will probably not launch the game again.
100% agree. It started in Horizon 3 to go to crap. I still like the Horizons but it's like they're trying to attract people that get bored so they fill the game with tonnes of stuff.
@@jayganga9921 Extra stuff does not equal a better game. Actually the opposite - the less a game needs to keep you hooked means it's core design is better and doesn't need fluff. That's how games used to be 10+ years ago.
I'm level 36 with like 100+ cars and heaps of money but been to lazy to do any Races😂 I usually just do car meets. Actually forgot you can have houses on this game like FH4
Thanks for the vid man. Do you know when the AMG Project One is gifted to all players?I’d thought it would be immediately but I’m now passed level 50 and unlocked all the festivals and it’s still to appear
@@KurtisQu it’s in the Autoshow but on one of the PG streams Mike Brown said it would be gifted to all players. Perhaps it will happen on 9 November when the standard FH5 is released
bro this video is amazing lmao i was wondering how to get my vip stuff thanks so much. Also don’t you get a house with vip. Do you unlock that after you do the apex thing and races. v
I bought the Premium Edition and by the time you posted this video until now, I still can't access the Forzathon Shop and the both of the Season Reward Cars in my Playlist aren't the same as yours!
You seem bevy knowledgeable about the game so how do you unlock the super 7 tab in the creative hub section I did it but idk how and my friends is locked
So I was trying to figure out why I've got three tokens to unlock a couple of the remaining horizon adventures but it won't let me it says I need to progress more through the game. Idk why this seems more difficult for me to to understand than the past horizon games. Fh3 was one of the best games in terms of how they had the progression of campaign. I guess I'll just keep running around doing races and also the accolades and hopefully it'll finally let me pick one to continue the campaign.
Am I missing something? I got off the plane, chose my car and drove the girl to her destination. But I'm not getting the 2 storyline options to pick from?
Hello Jake. I have a different festival playlist and I don't know why. Any guess on why I have this problem? I just have a playlist, but not the summer one. And is also bugged and glitched. Thank you!
how to unlock forza link ? When I click on the option in the menu, it tells me it's locked and I need to continue playing to unlock it, so it's definitely an unlockable. I just don't know what unlocks it.. mine is level 30 and 1 more think i unable to go horizon life... sad (steam version)
Sorry I'm late here, I completed the "on a wing and a prayer" mission but those missions you referenced around 1:20 regarding the choice between two mission, that never happened for me? Any idea why or how to get it to "show up"
What I don't know is how to enter the festival race, the game says: press enter to enter, but pressing enter members me into the menu, where you can change the name, vehicles etc
Having huge problems Series X constantly losing connection. When friends join can't see each other's cars or on the map. The forzathon shop isn't available the series play list works when it wants. Horizon adventure street scene has 1st tick but it's not complete and don't have any festival or any of the street scene race's.
pls help I'm not new to the game but I have finished the tutorial and the Goliath but it still doesn't give me the option to buy more houses. I also am level 87 and have the lambogini Sesto elemento
I'm playing on xbox one and I've encountered numerous problems and issues. The game is really slow and glitches. My progress doesn't save when i go back to play. I can't access the forzathon shop and the festival playlist is broken. All been hyped up for nothing, what a waste of money.
Pretty sure forzathon shop can’t be accessed till the games proper release on the 9th, I’m playing it on the first Xbox and it seems to be fine for me just long loading screens
@@nebe0719 They shouldn't be releasing the game on old gen consoles if they know users will be getting problems. Reminds me of what happened with cyberpunk. Anyway some channels on here got early access before any of us to show us the game but they were all using new gen consoles because the devs know the game won't play well on old gen consoles but were going to release it anyway.
Omg hahaha, I only just noticed it now that u had a T-Shirt on back then with the Logo of XRP on it 😳😂🙏🙌❤️💯 U know it as well. So amazing. People should get in to it cuz it's happening, More then 50k per XRP is coming, Even more then that 😎 XLM, XDC will all be backed by precious metals.
@@Focaz if you press "start" (don't know what the button is actually called), and go over to the online tab, there should be a big tile for horizon open, if you press it theres race, drift, eliminator, and ... something else..., i don't know if any works, I just did the race option, but as it says open event, and not specifically race, I'd assume any would count :D
Help! Can you please go more detail about the Playground game mode? That place with the skull icon. I want to try it but I don't know how to get a team
Nice vid. Please advise how to open more showcase events and races? I seem to be stuck with one showcase and only a handful of races..none on the dunes or in the city,?
so i started like 3 days ago and i got all festivals maxed out and realized that my pr festival hasnt even been built and i cant even do it i think its because my game froze once and some of my progress reset idek man

Thanks bro
nice guide! and nice to see the preimum edition has a lot of neat perks lol
thank you so much for this thorough explanation. i was quite overwhelmed with the amount of quests and information when i booted up the game
This saved me soooooo much time by telling me about the Apex Expedition. Holy heck! I got the Event Lab unlocked.
How?

This is the only video like this nice work
All the issues everyone’s having will probably be fixed on the 9th when everybody gets to play

Facts
Tell me about it. It took me forever just to figure out the menu and find things.
That expedition gave me 12k accolades lmao thanks for leading me to that sooner thats pretty much exactly the hint I was looking for mate.
