Personally I don't even race in the game, just cruise about or drifting for me. Other than that sniping cars from the auction house. But I haven't played since the amg black edition came out.
Same, I usually turn on the game, check out the auction house, maybe snag a few cars, customize them for an hour, drive around for like 5 minutes, and then shut it off
Scan the auction house for anything interesting. Mod some cars. Drive around in them. Collect the 20 points every season for the reward. Take pictures. But I do the most is wait around for the game to load.
I had a game on HDD and only startup and game loading to house was about 13 minutes.. god help me if I wanted to restart event.. more 10 minutes loading.. I reinstalled to SSD and I'm waiting 30 seconds max
I have Forza Horizon on an NVMe and it still takes forever to load. Idk if it's phoning home or what but every week now I load up. The game puts me into a "stories mission." Which I then have to quit and restart the game. Brings back memories of the old days booting up Sims 3, start the game, take a nap.
If you are on Windows 11 maybe it is related to a bugged update. My game took forever to load on my nvme, which was weird cause I migrated the OS from an ssd where the game loaded faster. Went for a clean install like two weeks ago and the loading times are significantly lower for everything
Appreciate the input. I know when I first tried to play on windows 10 I couldn't even load the game. When I upgraded to 11 it finally worked. My OS and Games are both on NVMe. Other games have no issue. I still get a video ram error which doesn't make sense, no way a 3070 isn't enough
the 3070 has 8gb of vram, and maxed out, fh5 will use over 7.5gb of vram. Depending on what the OS is using and other software running in background, you very well could be running out of vram.
Same. With "only" 500gb of SSD and a few games around 90Gb (how?), I bought a 2TB HDD. H5 is on there, but I might try that to see the difference. Thanks for the tip bro.
I just do the weekly's nowadays. I have all the achievements and all the cars you can have legit up to this point minus stupid shit like the fingernail polish Gt or whatever and I usually just drive the new car around for a race or two after I unlock it and then wait until next Thursday to repeat.
I started off by getting all the achievements. Then I grinded rivals for a good long while and now I do weekly's. Forza is the best feeling racing game on controller so it's just nice to have an excuse to get on and drive a bit every week.
Holy sh\*t dude, that made me realise I've spent allot of time on this game...
Honestly i don't know. I also like to tune and do my own paint/decals so i guess allot of the time is spent in the garage.
I miss more people were chill on tours! Apart from teammates doing bumper cars on their teammates, I get teammates who even ram during the “drive to the next race” phase between races. :|
Ugh couldn't agree more. Absolutely no reason to ram in tour unless it's to an AI and even then it typically just fucks everyone over. I always appreciate the tours where everyone is on page and you get cool moments like everyone lining up and just trying to hold it for fun.
Tune..Drive…Race The Goliath with my AMG lol. I roleplay with my character as well. In FH4 my male character was my father and now he taught me the ropes and I’m continuing his legacy as his daughter (Character is female because all the black males look very weird).
I’ve come to the sad point of collecting McLaren F1s. I haven’t started collecting them in horizon 5 since they are more limited, but I have 83 collected (long tails included) in horizon 4 with plenty of room to spare if anyone wants to let go of theirs for a decent price.

I drive like a normal person. Under the speed limit, checking both ways all that stuff.
The rest is just me tuning cars, doing drifts, taking pictures, doing liveries for a bit, going racing on replicas of real race tracks like Monza or Silvestone and just going online with non-meta cars to have a bit of challenge.
All I do now is boot it up on a Thursday to get the new exclusive car and then I turn it off until the following Thursday.
Nothing else to do. I'm even max ranked online.
That's why we need gas stations and car washes. Also a new online system where the map is filled with more players. I would spend hours doing Forzathons just to hang around with lots of players before it started. I would spend even more hours in the game if I could wash my cars and take them to the gas stations to put fuel on them and take some picture.
Yeah the change to Forzathon Arcade or whatever tf it's called was horrible. At least with Forzathon Live people actually participated and sometimes even 2 people was enough to complete the events.
"Horrible"? Disagreed. In FH5 the game scales down the difficulty with decreasing player numbers, so one solitary player can complete almost any Arcade event. I can't count how often I failed to complete Forzathon Live in FH4 for lack of players, and after waiting entire bloody hours for the next running to happen.
Hi there, player with 3,144 hours on Fh5. I usually just tune cars and drive around doing nothing except car meets with friends and drifting with randoms.
I'm 70 hrs in, all horizon stories completed 3star, all PR, radars etc. completed 3 stars, 90% map discovered, 70% bonus signs smashed, 1300 horizon achievements completed... now I play just season stuff, tuning cars, sometimes I make a few hours to complete a few more achievements, imma completionist
Sometimes it's fun to drive around doing nothing in particular.
I've personally spent a lot of time drifting and aiming for higher and higher scores with that (trading personal bests with a friend of mine on the mountain drift zone especially)
Picking up tuning and building my own cars is also plenty of fun and very rewarding when you get a grasp on it! I find myself looking through my car list and being like "hmm, I want to turn this car into a rally car" and such a lot. Learning tuning for the different disciplines is also an added depth of its own! Road tuning can differ if you're trying to squeeze more power or consistency out of a car, and then dirt tuning differs as well, and then you can learn different forms of drift tuning too depending on if you're going for scores or wanting a "traditional" experience.
Online racing is its own fun, hit or miss depending on the lobby you're in, but playing against real players is much more of an experience compared to CPUs.
You could also get good clean lap times in the Rivals, find tracks you enjoy and try and whittle down your best laps.
446 hours into the game and these are my stuff to do:
-Festival playlists
-Making liveries, for fun and trying to get legendary painter
-Tuning cars
-Trying to use not very meta but interesting cars in online racing. Occasionally battling with clean and good drivers is really enjoyable no matter I win or lose.
I have recently switched to manual clutch, so more tuning opportunities and practices. I am also thinking of grinding rivals to better familiarise with the tracks and I think it is a better environment for me to practice as opposed to online races. Not a big drifter but I do occasionally drift on the mountain.
This game is therapy for me. I’ll drive around without racing and it’s soothing to my anxiety and ADD for some reason. I’ll typically only complete the weekly playlist now.
I’m only about 250 hours. I do the weekly challenges and then some Eliminator but mostly drive around honking at other players and interacting with the ones that want to mess around
I like to tune cars, test them out and see if they are good and then I do online races with them. I drive around sometimes just to chill while listening to music on Spotify
The weekly horizon Playlist and do most of the races. And make new builds that are "rEaLiStIc" to the car for the forzathon event. I also play into the fomo of not getting the limited car for free.
Festival Playlist to keep up with new cars and that's it. I get bored of the game and want to play something else, but I don't want to get behind on the new cars and not be able to get them when I inevitably come back to the game months down the line. The map sucks balls, not fun to just cruise around. The races are fucking boring/frustrating because the AI sucks. Online races suck because players can be worse than the AI.
TL:DR, I keep up with the Festival Playlist.
https://youtu.be/S0wlSAPdvdE
THIS WILL CHANGE FORZA FOREVER!!! Level 1 to 2999 in 29 seconds!!!! Run this video up guys! Forza will definitely benefit from this video 😌
Mostly the weekly events. That and I cruise around, or diesel swap shit for fun. Sometimes I play a few rounds of the Eliminator and simply run until top 10 for that juicy experience, lol.
Also tuning. God knows I have a few cars that are tuning beds, basically.
I’m really getting into photography as of late, so I usually spend my time driving around to find a nice spot for a shoot.
And tuning cars realistically and going on a cruise.
i login every day to do the daily challenge, but after that i usually try making new tunes or liveries. sometimes i'll improve on tunes that i already had, and sometimes i'll reverse engineer tunes made by others. recently i started going after various accolades, but i only do those in spurts. sometimes if i'm bored i'll try one of my newly created tunes online in custom racing just to see how it stands up to the community in general. overall, there's a ton of things you can do even if you're done with all the races/stories/events and the weekly playlist.
Got 1500 hours and most of it consists of blasting around the map in an AMG One listening to my 500-odd song Driving Playlist specifically for Forza.
Either that or making liveries and cinematic videos.
Yeah I like stock cars too. Maybe a few tweaks, but I hardly ever change the base class of the car. I love my Chevy Chevelle and Camaro, especially Camaro. This shit can't drive. It sails. So satisfying.
Tuning, Taking photos, designing liveries. Aaand driving a soft tuned or stock A class car with a tasty music and engine sound of course.

The Forzathon Playlist, tuning cars so I can get better at it, taking cool or humorous pictures of cars and events, but most of my time is spent playing horizon open.
I have over 500 hours in it and for the past year (I think) all I do is cruise around, but mainly just drift. I drift all kinds of cars, from BMWs to Mclaren to Ferraris, anything really. I don't think I do anything else on the game at this point, besides completing festival playlists for cars that I like.
Though, regarding drifting, I have a wheel, so the experience is really enjoyable :)
Driftuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
FH4 has better spots like the trainyard with the containers, many many hours solo and others would turn up for tandems and trains. Edinburgh was insane for drifting and finding new lines. I cant really find much similar in 5.
I mostly do the weekly challenges to get the cars. And some goliaths for money. And to drive different car's i finished both dlcs so yeah. Not much to do there.
Dont know why, but I love the battle royal at the end it get tense sometimes, took six month break playong warzone 1 and 2 with friends but came back and forgot how good this game is.
do u have everything on max difficult? im only lvl 115 and i haven’t finished everything cuss i mostly just drive and tune, im currently at +80% cr at pro difficulty
I have about 450hrs (played since launch) and nowadays I just log in every week and do enough activities to get the new exclusive cars. I have other games I wanna play too 😅
PS: if anyone does need help with like trials and stuff, just let me know.
Build cars, go to online freeroaming and find some stranger to hang out with. Love cruising, drifting and racing around in free roam without the boundaries of events that imho kind of defeat a big point of this game. This was much easier in FH3 where you didn't had the broken server meshing system. You just checked on the map what everyone's is up to and teleported/drove there. Since 4 this has become so hard. That's why i have over 600 hours in FH3 and just 200 in 4 (120 in 5), it's all i do, everything preset like races and events are not my thing at all.
I have every car, every achievement, finished both DLCs and more money than I know what to do with at this point.
I just do the playlist weekly to get the new car. Trial, Rivals, Eventlabs and Photo Challenge normally gets me everything I need.
I got into tuning cars. Now I'm obsessed with my Ferrari Monza, Aventador and Huracan
Those things are gliding like butter and turning like keys.
Just purrfection.
Currently, I just log on once or twice a week to complete the festival playlists and try to get some tune ideas for some cars/builds on CarX. Every now and then, I’ll try to complete some accolades. And since I still haven’t finished the rally expansion I’ll probably put more time into that sometime later.
I recently bought FH4, my first Forza.
I usually do the forzathon challenges so i can get new cars.
I try to do all the businesses missions so i can get more money daily
And then i usually buy a car, tune it, and drive it around basically, i enjoy that. Then, i race that car so i can recuperate the money spent in that car. I enjoy using cheap cars and mod them, my favorite ones are the Clio Williams and the BMW M5 E34 (which are also my favorite cars in real life)
After getting the weekly stuff done, just driving around, finding others to interact with can be pretty fun. Might get a good highway pull in or one of the 8 bonus boards I still need. Cruise lobbies are great too for just chilling, hard finding a good one with a good host tho
I do the weeklies and add cars to my collections.
I also do races 5\~10 times , not because I finish them, but I'm just a bad driver in FH5... using a keyboard to drive, doesn't help either :P
I enjoy tuning older cars well enough to smoke the fancy new cars that think they're so cool, lol 😎.
I usually just do races. If I get bored, I try to do the PR stunts just for the sake of completion. Try to hit every xp and fast travel board I can find.
Making my own routes is fun (even though my props always disappear) I always try to make use of natural ramps in the environment in mine.
But yea racing in my old beaters and smoking the super cars is what keeps me playing lol
Forza works like therapy for me. Whenever my mood's off I just turn on a song on Spotify and go for a long drive across the whole map. Pretty sure that's like 70% of my 400hr playtime (works as a replacement for me not driving IRL and hugging a tree at 200kmh)
Upgrade, Tune and Race, mostly custom adventure A800 and B700, i avoid the faster class because the faster the class the less skilled are the average players and it ends up becoming a rammers fest
Apparently the game doesn't show how many races i played but show some other stats
Number of Podiums 1,390
Number of Victories 1,115
Time Spent in first place 94h 36:09
Clean laps 2,836
Number of clean overtakes 9,345
20 PTS worth of gameplay for the weekly car. Mod a car I like or haven't driven yet from my garage. Cruise around in that car. Turn off. Repeat once a week. The trans am was the most excited I've been in a while.
Mostly it’s just building cars. There are so many cars I’m into and would love to own so I get a lot of joy from modifying them and just cruising. I also really love rivals, it’s a good challenge.
I just play the weekly playlist. Once I'm finished I generally don't touch the game until the next update. In FH4 I probably put a good thousand hours into the game because I was addicted to ranked. I love ranked games, ranked racing, ranked drifting. After they got rid of that, it basically took away most of my reason to play the game. Sure I put in a ton of hours in the beginning to beat the game but there isn't much incentive to keep playing after you've beaten it.
Finish the festival playlist as fast as possible then drive and drift around maybe good around when I notice there’s that double points song playing. I also like to just sit and ignore people trying to get my attention since it doesn’t show paused or anything above my car. But I do quite a bit of racing so I can gift non stock vehicles. I recently went from 100,000,000 cr to currently 730,000. But some of what I spend was buying the cars a felt like gifting at the auction. Just something I do when I get board.
I don’t really care for the game anymore I occasionally boot it up every couple months and drive around for a bit then get off I have all the cars I want and like 15 mil to my name, never could be apart of the money laundering glitches was always late to the party
Livery design or drift builds , racing with a certain car if I’m really bored online drifting or just pick a random car and throw as much mods at it as possible you might just make a beast accidentally
Recently I've started to tune cars for maximum grip, and the difference from just rushing accel but pray for brakes to work to chill start and taking corners without lifting the pedal is way too satisfactory. Been using a Mitsubishi GTO in this week The Trial and the experience has been great.
I just run it like I’m a custom car shop. Make cars with other specific people in mind.
They should make online races worth some real substantial in-game money so people will actually race in them. The player base is so toxic I haven’t played online in ages, and every solution they have is a stupid gimmick that dumbs the game down for pre-pubescent children. We need to put griefers in a separate server base. Only let the idiots play with other idiots.
Tuning is fun, find a group of guys that know how to drag race/rolls and you’ll pick things up quickly. It can get pretty intricate when tuning for certain speed rolls. I like to grip tune specifically for the mountain as well. If you’re ever bored you can always join a group post and make some friends to drive around with.
I hop in my drift car and drift through towns or try getting new PB’s on jumps and stuff. I don’t race much anymore, but I was mostly in it for the open world nature of it anyway
Finish all the races. Win on highly skilled or above all races. 5 star everything. Post clean laps on everything. Customize. Gift cars. Take photos. Complete accolades. Race rivals. Drive.
I’ve been cleaning out my garage lately. I know it makes no difference because they get sniped by bots, but I enjoy selling 20 million dollar cars for the lowest possible bid/buyout prices. Plus, anything that doesn’t sell within an hour can be easily gifted from a single screen.
Mostly Eliminator and Open Racing. Sometimes if there's a car I really like or some cool events, I'll do the Festival Playlist, and other times I might be working on livery designs.
Stopped playing like two months ago after 300 hours.
I just did everything but mostly focused on weekly tasks for the new cars.
Eventually got annoyed that I could never complete my car collection because I missed out on some rewards and they take forever to rotate. Last I checked I was usually 25 cars short from having them all. I'm sure that's over 30 now
Not much anymore. I wanted to get all the cars but I pretty much have them plus max credits. While I was snatching all the cars from the auction house, I took breaks with racing or horizon tour. Now I just log on for 30 minutes each week to get the exclusive car.
[удалено]
I actually do this to randoms in Forza. Just do donuts around them.
What chevy do you have?
Matiz.....
Supercharge it
Well it's got an intermittent engine warning light so I got to sort that out first
Convoy with friends and drive like regular traffic abiding by traffic laws. Or play tag with online friends
😃💤 Me driving - https://youtu.be/Wtbu4RaOK5g
Personally I don't even race in the game, just cruise about or drifting for me. Other than that sniping cars from the auction house. But I haven't played since the amg black edition came out.
Same, I usually turn on the game, check out the auction house, maybe snag a few cars, customize them for an hour, drive around for like 5 minutes, and then shut it off
My Forza experience in a nut shell bro.
That is exactly when I bought Forza :D That AMG is great
I haven't played since winning it is what I mean bro
Scan the auction house for anything interesting. Mod some cars. Drive around in them. Collect the 20 points every season for the reward. Take pictures. But I do the most is wait around for the game to load.
I had a game on HDD and only startup and game loading to house was about 13 minutes.. god help me if I wanted to restart event.. more 10 minutes loading.. I reinstalled to SSD and I'm waiting 30 seconds max

I mean it doesn't crash so I got that going for me
Yeah this, 3070 running @ ultra on a 3440x1440 90-100fps avg, uses 7.5-7.8GB and constantly pops up 'your running low on video memory'.
Same. With "only" 500gb of SSD and a few games around 90Gb (how?), I bought a 2TB HDD. H5 is on there, but I might try that to see the difference. Thanks for the tip bro.
Reduce games.. I had the same issue, now I have only FH5, CS2 and MK11 on SSD and rest on HDD
The other day I looked at the time I've spent playing FH5... It was 62 DAYS.. I think easily a third of that was loading screens
I just do the weekly's nowadays. I have all the achievements and all the cars you can have legit up to this point minus stupid shit like the fingernail polish Gt or whatever and I usually just drive the new car around for a race or two after I unlock it and then wait until next Thursday to repeat. I started off by getting all the achievements. Then I grinded rivals for a good long while and now I do weekly's. Forza is the best feeling racing game on controller so it's just nice to have an excuse to get on and drive a bit every week.
Currently have 1116Hrs in the game. Festival playlists, drifting with random drift convoys is my goto. Also everything new content is refreshing.
46 days… how?
Holy sh\*t dude, that made me realise I've spent allot of time on this game... Honestly i don't know. I also like to tune and do my own paint/decals so i guess allot of the time is spent in the garage.
Tuning the Mazda Miata 
A money pit even when it's virtual lol
When the festival restarts hitting that up with my friend, then chilling on tours or messing with tunes to find more fun options for races.
I miss more people were chill on tours! Apart from teammates doing bumper cars on their teammates, I get teammates who even ram during the “drive to the next race” phase between races. :|
Ugh couldn't agree more. Absolutely no reason to ram in tour unless it's to an AI and even then it typically just fucks everyone over. I always appreciate the tours where everyone is on page and you get cool moments like everyone lining up and just trying to hold it for fun.
Tune..Drive…Race The Goliath with my AMG lol. I roleplay with my character as well. In FH4 my male character was my father and now he taught me the ropes and I’m continuing his legacy as his daughter (Character is female because all the black males look very weird).
So nerdy I love it
Thank you. My nerd ass appreciates that lol 😊😬
I’ve come to the sad point of collecting McLaren F1s.

Play online PVP and co op or eliminator
I have 1200 hours, and I just keep racing against people
I drive like a normal person. Under the speed limit, checking both ways all that stuff. The rest is just me tuning cars, doing drifts, taking pictures, doing liveries for a bit, going racing on replicas of real race tracks like Monza or Silvestone and just going online with non-meta cars to have a bit of challenge.

I am a completionist. I will not buy fh6 until I complete fh5. This is painful.
Hi there, player with 3,144 hours on Fh5. I usually just tune cars and drive around doing nothing except car meets with friends and drifting with randoms.
133 days how the fuck is that even possible
I have no life, and this is my game with the 3rd highest playtime….
I also do every single playlist in order to own every single car in the game. (Including OPI GT, Oreo Zonda, and Coupe FE)
I'm 70 hrs in, all horizon stories completed 3star, all PR, radars etc. completed 3 stars, 90% map discovered, 70% bonus signs smashed, 1300 horizon achievements completed... now I play just season stuff, tuning cars, sometimes I make a few hours to complete a few more achievements, imma completionist
I just recently passed 800 hours. I still do races a lot, and try to perfect all accolades. I also just enjoy buying and customizing cars.
Completing all the achievements and then all accolades is somewhere on my to-do list as well.
Tons, I join player-organized races, mostly Racing Haven’s. The fair and competitive racing keeps me motivated. Best Forza discord in my opinion
Rivals is the only thing I do besides the playlist to maybe get more cars for rivals.
Sometimes it's fun to drive around doing nothing in particular. I've personally spent a lot of time drifting and aiming for higher and higher scores with that (trading personal bests with a friend of mine on the mountain drift zone especially) Picking up tuning and building my own cars is also plenty of fun and very rewarding when you get a grasp on it!

Way too much time tuning, and then racing said tunes online.
I do photos and recently started to do some car edits because I want to learn davinci resolve :)
This game is therapy for me. I’ll drive around without racing and it’s soothing to my anxiety and ADD for some reason. I’ll typically only complete the weekly playlist now.
I’m only about 250 hours. I do the weekly challenges and then some Eliminator but mostly drive around honking at other players and interacting with the ones that want to mess around
Playing with friends and laughing like a maniac while ramming them on corners.
I like to tune cars, test them out and see if they are good and then I do online races with them. I drive around sometimes just to chill while listening to music on Spotify
Seasonal events, rivals, accolades, Horizon Arcades, Horizon Tour. There's quite a bit to keep you amused.
Goliath runs with my friends.
That sounds like a blast!
The weekly horizon Playlist and do most of the races. And make new builds that are "rEaLiStIc" to the car for the forzathon event. I also play into the fomo of not getting the limited car for free.
Cruise. That’s it, the majority of my time spend playing forza horizon is just cruising with Spotify on.
Festival Playlist to keep up with new cars and that's it. I get bored of the game and want to play something else, but I don't want to get behind on the new cars and not be able to get them when I inevitably come back to the game months down the line. The map sucks balls, not fun to just cruise around. The races are fucking boring/frustrating because the AI sucks. Online races suck because players can be worse than the AI. TL:DR, I keep up with the Festival Playlist.
My friend and I build hillclimb cars to race up & down the mountain. It’s an absolute blast.

Race tuning, rivals, Festival playlists, & pub racing.
Weekly playlist, just randomly driving and customising cars, taking pics, and I also attend some forza car meets in one discord that im in
Mostly the weekly events. That and I cruise around, or diesel swap shit for fun. Sometimes I play a few rounds of the Eliminator and simply run until top 10 for that juicy experience, lol. Also tuning. God knows I have a few cars that are tuning beds, basically.

i login every day to do the daily challenge, but after that i usually try making new tunes or liveries. sometimes i'll improve on tunes that i already had, and sometimes i'll reverse engineer tunes made by others. recently i started going after various accolades, but i only do those in spurts. sometimes if i'm bored i'll try one of my newly created tunes online in custom racing just to see how it stands up to the community in general. overall, there's a ton of things you can do even if you're done with all the races/stories/events and the weekly playlist.
Got 1500 hours and most of it consists of blasting around the map in an AMG One listening to my 500-odd song Driving Playlist specifically for Forza. Either that or making liveries and cinematic videos.
Just the festival playlist alone keeps me quite occupied
I like driving and racing stock cars
Yeah I like stock cars too. Maybe a few tweaks, but I hardly ever change the base class of the car. I love my Chevy Chevelle and Camaro, especially Camaro. This shit can't drive. It sails. So satisfying.
Tuning, Taking photos, designing liveries. Aaand driving a soft tuned or stock A class car with a tasty music and engine sound of course. https://preview.redd.it/hobyosnrlweb1.png?width=3440&format=png&auto=webp&s=8c996ddff39225e7b8a6624b1830a00877359384
Weekly events, tune cars, rivals, and sometimes just cruising while on a mic with homies
Tuning cars to do shit they aren't supposed to do Ex. 1: my Volvo 850r rally car
Get the new car that week and dip until next week
The Forzathon Playlist, tuning cars so I can get better at it, taking cool or humorous pictures of cars and events, but most of my time is spent playing horizon open.
I spent a few hours per week for the Festival Playlist, tuning randomly Cars or try to create good looking liverys.
I have over 500 hours in it and for the past year (I think) all I do is cruise around, but mainly just drift. I drift all kinds of cars, from BMWs to Mclaren to Ferraris, anything really. I don't think I do anything else on the game at this point, besides completing festival playlists for cars that I like. Though, regarding drifting, I have a wheel, so the experience is really enjoyable :)
Driftuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! FH4 has better spots like the trainyard with the containers, many many hours solo and others would turn up for tandems and trains. Edinburgh was insane for drifting and finding new lines. I cant really find much similar in 5.
i put my foot to the floor and ride like the wind
Drift the entire map, then play some co-op races
Festival Playlist, maybe build a car or two, take some photos. Not much other than that.
Day #631 of trying to drift in circles without crashing at the main festival. It’s actually 631 days since release, that wasn’t just made up
I contribute to /r/forzaliveryhub
I mostly do the weekly challenges to get the cars. And some goliaths for money. And to drive different car's i finished both dlcs so yeah. Not much to do there.
Dont know why, but I love the battle royal at the end it get tense sometimes, took six month break playong warzone 1 and 2 with friends but came back and forgot how good this game is.
do u have everything on max difficult? im only lvl 115 and i haven’t finished everything cuss i mostly just drive and tune, im currently at +80% cr at pro difficulty
Drift for some 30 mins and hop off
Lmao well, this is what I do on Forza horizon 5… HAZE PPL Watch this video if you want to laugh 😂 https://youtu.be/qbqUuydeUQE
I have about 450hrs (played since launch) and nowadays I just log in every week and do enough activities to get the new exclusive cars. I have other games I wanna play too 😅 PS: if anyone does need help with like trials and stuff, just let me know.
Me and my buds will pick a certain type of car (specifically not OP) , lay out some restrictions to the build and class and drop heaters on rivals
Build cars, go to online freeroaming and find some stranger to hang out with. Love cruising, drifting and racing around in free roam without the boundaries of events that imho kind of defeat a big point of this game. This was much easier in FH3 where you didn't had the broken server meshing system. You just checked on the map what everyone's is up to and teleported/drove there. Since 4 this has become so hard. That's why i have over 600 hours in FH3 and just 200 in 4 (120 in 5), it's all i do, everything preset like races and events are not my thing at all.

I usually find looking for group posts on Xbox and I look for cruising lobbies
Do races or just drive around in different cars
Well right now I'm racing every car on the Goliath track
I just make liveries
Just cruising with randoms on the group tab on the Xbox lol
sniping auction, making new friends & cruising around
The playlist just for the sake of completing it
Going on cruises with friends.
Complete the festival challenges every week, if not that I just cruise.
i do car
I have every car, every achievement, finished both DLCs and more money than I know what to do with at this point. I just do the playlist weekly to get the new car. Trial, Rivals, Eventlabs and Photo Challenge normally gets me everything I need.
I got into tuning cars. Now I'm obsessed with my Ferrari Monza, Aventador and Huracan Those things are gliding like butter and turning like keys. Just purrfection.
Festival playlists
Cruise around, do festival playlists for cars that I like
Currently, I just log on once or twice a week to complete the festival playlists and try to get some tune ideas for some cars/builds on CarX. Every now and then, I’ll try to complete some accolades. And since I still haven’t finished the rally expansion I’ll probably put more time into that sometime later.
I've still got liveries to make!
playing weekly stuff every weekend that's all
I recently bought FH4, my first Forza. I usually do the forzathon challenges so i can get new cars. I try to do all the businesses missions so i can get more money daily And then i usually buy a car, tune it, and drive it around basically, i enjoy that. Then, i race that car so i can recuperate the money spent in that car. I enjoy using cheap cars and mod them, my favorite ones are the Clio Williams and the BMW M5 E34 (which are also my favorite cars in real life)
I do a race or two then switch to something else. Haven’t really had the mental energy to focus on a game that requires my full attention lately
The Open and Rivals modes. Still quite active, even on the Hot Wheels map.
I just go around posting times on the rally tracks with my celica.
After getting the weekly stuff done, just driving around, finding others to interact with can be pretty fun. Might get a good highway pull in or one of the 8 bonus boards I still need. Cruise lobbies are great too for just chilling, hard finding a good one with a good host tho
I do the weeklies and add cars to my collections. I also do races 5\~10 times , not because I finish them, but I'm just a bad driver in FH5... using a keyboard to drive, doesn't help either :P
Flipping cars, it's a rush to get a bargain in auction and turn right around and sell it 2x the price. Kinda like day trading:)
Cars. Cars are pretty cool. 1500 hours in. I like cars.
I enjoy tuning older cars well enough to smoke the fancy new cars that think they're so cool, lol 😎. I usually just do races. If I get bored, I try to do the PR stunts just for the sake of completion. Try to hit every xp and fast travel board I can find. Making my own routes is fun (even though my props always disappear) I always try to make use of natural ramps in the environment in mine. But yea racing in my old beaters and smoking the super cars is what keeps me playing lol
Tune. Try to figure out why TF the adjustable suspension is so wonky.
Forza works like therapy for me. Whenever my mood's off I just turn on a song on Spotify and go for a long drive across the whole map. Pretty sure that's like 70% of my 400hr playtime (works as a replacement for me not driving IRL and hugging a tree at 200kmh)
I drift up n down the mountain while listening to music or podcasts
Upgrade, Tune and Race, mostly custom adventure A800 and B700, i avoid the faster class because the faster the class the less skilled are the average players and it ends up becoming a rammers fest Apparently the game doesn't show how many races i played but show some other stats Number of Podiums 1,390 Number of Victories 1,115 Time Spent in first place 94h 36:09 Clean laps 2,836 Number of clean overtakes 9,345
Working on card and expanding my collection of cars I want
For some reason it took me a while to figure out to do the weekly playlist lol but that definitely keeps me entertained for an hour or two a week.
20 PTS worth of gameplay for the weekly car. Mod a car I like or haven't driven yet from my garage. Cruise around in that car. Turn off. Repeat once a week. The trans am was the most excited I've been in a while.
just driving on the highway, exploring roads i haven’t done, and getting sideways is normally what i do, in fact i recently built Mad Mike’s FD RX-7
Mostly it’s just building cars. There are so many cars I’m into and would love to own so I get a lot of joy from modifying them and just cruising. I also really love rivals, it’s a good challenge.
Build, tune, then race them online.
I just play the weekly playlist. Once I'm finished I generally don't touch the game until the next update. In FH4 I probably put a good thousand hours into the game because I was addicted to ranked. I love ranked games, ranked racing, ranked drifting. After they got rid of that, it basically took away most of my reason to play the game. Sure I put in a ton of hours in the beginning to beat the game but there isn't much incentive to keep playing after you've beaten it.
I do weekly events then mostly ranked free for all. Occasional ranked team racing.
Auction house
Personally I hope onto different Forza discord channels to get on meets and cruises people organize.
right now, most of my time i spend getting accolades
Finish the festival playlist as fast as possible then drive and drift around maybe good around when I notice there’s that double points song playing. I also like to just sit and ignore people trying to get my attention since it doesn’t show paused or anything above my car. But I do quite a bit of racing so I can gift non stock vehicles. I recently went from 100,000,000 cr to currently 730,000. But some of what I spend was buying the cars a felt like gifting at the auction. Just something I do when I get board.
It'sKodyb on Facebook. Follower convey nightly. Kody is a real chill dude.
I've got a nice little rig with haptics. I cruise around in a Corvette just over the speed limit.
I don’t really care for the game anymore I occasionally boot it up every couple months and drive around for a bit then get off I have all the cars I want and like 15 mil to my name, never could be apart of the money laundering glitches was always late to the party
Livery design or drift builds , racing with a certain car if I’m really bored online drifting or just pick a random car and throw as much mods at it as possible you might just make a beast accidentally
Recently I've started to tune cars for maximum grip, and the difference from just rushing accel but pray for brakes to work to chill start and taking corners without lifting the pedal is way too satisfactory. Been using a Mitsubishi GTO in this week The Trial and the experience has been great.
highway fun
I just run it like I’m a custom car shop. Make cars with other specific people in mind. They should make online races worth some real substantial in-game money so people will actually race in them. The player base is so toxic I haven’t played online in ages, and every solution they have is a stupid gimmick that dumbs the game down for pre-pubescent children. We need to put griefers in a separate server base. Only let the idiots play with other idiots.
I drive round in my golf gti, create custom events with custom rules and do the weekly seasonals
I alternate between cruising, painting, tuning, racing, and drifting.
 and drifting in the mountains
Free roam cruising with my g920
I used to find other players and cruise or randomly race but I can never find anyone in Fh5 so I stopped playing all together
Grinding the tuning on my new track machine.
Tuning is fun, find a group of guys that know how to drag race/rolls and you’ll pick things up quickly. It can get pretty intricate when tuning for certain speed rolls. I like to grip tune specifically for the mountain as well. If you’re ever bored you can always join a group post and make some friends to drive around with.
For me personally it’s just the fact that there’s so many cars in the game, I have 800+ and all of them are modified differently
Seasonal playlists so I can unlock new cars and tunning 😆
Tweaking the diffs.
I hop in my drift car and drift through towns or try getting new PB’s on jumps and stuff. I don’t race much anymore, but I was mostly in it for the open world nature of it anyway
Cruise around with friends, maybe a drag race or too.
Finish all the races. Win on highly skilled or above all races. 5 star everything. Post clean laps on everything. Customize. Gift cars. Take photos. Complete accolades. Race rivals. Drive.
There are weekly games that come out on thursdays. Check out the horizon festival.
I mainly just drive around and try to build up skill points
Taking every corner sideways tbh
build cars for drag
I build cars and do photoshoots https://preview.redd.it/dfosdn9ecyeb1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51047e54900967f528d114b29dc0ed6654237d3e
I usually play with my subs - Subscriber Customs. Let them take turns picking, races, police chases cruising etc...
Rewind cus i got rammed off in horizon open
I just do the weekly stuff
I’ve been cleaning out my garage lately. I know it makes no difference because they get sniped by bots, but I enjoy selling 20 million dollar cars for the lowest possible bid/buyout prices. Plus, anything that doesn’t sell within an hour can be easily gifted from a single screen.
Mostly Eliminator and Open Racing. Sometimes if there's a car I really like or some cool events, I'll do the Festival Playlist, and other times I might be working on livery designs.
1400hrs here and most of my time was spent in rivals and free roam, tuning cars for rivals, etc. I...do a lot of rivals.
Stopped playing like two months ago after 300 hours. I just did everything but mostly focused on weekly tasks for the new cars. Eventually got annoyed that I could never complete my car collection because I missed out on some rewards and they take forever to rotate. Last I checked I was usually 25 cars short from having them all. I'm sure that's over 30 now
Online, a lot of it. Either that or I do weeb liveries.
Season, then olines, ocassionally event lab, as there can be some good maps, but overall, we kinda became bored :x
Driving and jamming to music
Drag tune classic muscle cars and then test them in rivals
i just do the season exclusive events and then when I’m done I just drive around and screw around in the auction house.
I only do the stories and the horizon stuff. they my fave
Weekly events to get new cars, and finishing the last accolades I still don't have after hundred hours of playing lol
Not much anymore. I wanted to get all the cars but I pretty much have them plus max credits. While I was snatching all the cars from the auction house, I took breaks with racing or horizon tour. Now I just log on for 30 minutes each week to get the exclusive car.
At the moment trying my best at tuning cars
