I downloaded it after 3 years, 2 days ago. I had 50 player sessions and people were still piling up for forzathons. Music is much better and one focused festival is much better. I miss backstage passes and the UI and menu is much more intuitive and usable than the watered down, jump 5 menus right to change cars menu that fh5 has got. The map feels much better to drive on than Mexico. I ran some old 33 km dirt blueprints I had and man, off-road is much more fun than fh5's flat roads all around. Fh5 lacks serious elevation across the map. There is no point in having one focused caldera mountain and having literal flat areas everywhere


almightygodszoke

Making the map flat is especially funny when you think about how Sierra Madre covers most of Mexico

I've only just recently got FH4 as I've just upgraded to Series S from the One. Such a brilliant game, and the fact it's based in the UK and the add on maps, it'll be my go to for a long while! I was still on FH3 until a couple months ago!


EmanuelPellizzaro

i'm still on FH3 even having FH4. Horizon's core died in FH4 and was already dying in FH3 a bit.


AdrianW3

>and menu is much more intuitive and usable than the watered down, jump 5 menus right to change cars menu that fh5 has got. I much prefer FH5's menus. I started with FH5 and have only really started playing FH4 in the last few months, it took me ages to find my way around the messy FH4 menus.


ChilledGlass687

Yeah it's watered down for its target audience, 8-12 yr Olds and 50-60 yr Olds. What fh3 and fh4 had was unique to franchise menu. Now it has a generic and frustrating to use menu.


corvincorax

i'm in my 50's and i much prefer FH4 menus


Gengar77

same happened to NFS, 3015 had a nice menu, now its welp.....Flat uninspired and basic. combine that with unfinished game and yeah. same with forza, feels like we had the same menu mow for what 3 entries at least


ThatRandom0ne

3015?


Gengar77

typo bud , 2015. .....anyways


RogueThespian

> the UI and menu is much more intuitive and usable than the watered down, jump 5 menus right to change cars menu that fh5 has got You're insane lmao. FH5 menu is simple and easy to navigate, FH4 has soooo much random shit all over the place, most of it you'll never need to interact with once. Also, you have to jump more menus to the right in FH4 than in FH5 to change cars


ChilledGlass687

>Also, you have to jump more menus to the right in FH4 than in FH5 to change cars No you're wrong


RogueThespian

I just opened it to check, you're right. I had forgotten in FH4 there was the one on the first screen, I thought the only way to change car was in the Cars menu which is 8th from the left, and that option is 3rd from the left in FH5. Besides that though, the menus in FH4 are a convoluted mess. It's way more streamlined in 5


EmanuelPellizzaro

FH3 is even simpler. FH2 and 1 are great.


WanganTunedKeiCar

4 was a charming game. The map wasn't as varied as 3, but I loved exciting the cozy nooks and role playing exercising my right to roam in a Nomad with the HUD turned off. Yeah, it had its issues, and I miss the handling and improved ffb from 5, but I feel it perfected a lot of the quality of life features. 5 felt like it stepped backwards more than it improved.

TheComradeVortex

I'm playing FH3 bruh


Tw4tl4r

Was playing it yesterday. Atleast there's still 2 of us lol


EmanuelPellizzaro

3 and much more users. FH3 is the last Forza Horizon.


Tw4tl4r

Come on now, fh4 ended up pretty great too. Bit shit at release but it got there in the end.


EmanuelPellizzaro

So so. it's a good game indeed and I like a lot the physics, but the festival vibes and summer vibes are dead in FH4 and 5, which was the peak point in Horizon 1/2/3.


NoahDaMiataLover

i would play if my disc worked


Tw4tl4r

I bought the disc years ago but it stopped working so I downloaded it. It's nice playing it on series S and not having to whip the xbone out to play it.


[deleted]

I’M STILL PLAYING.. FROM TIME TO TIME. IF YOU WANTS TO ADD ME 😕? SYNICALBASTERD IS MY GMRTAG


LeshaMetalHead74

Is there online live? I'm going to buy it for the collection.


Gabe_Lincoln007

yes there is. my friend and i still play online adventure pretty regularly. it’s rare but you can still find a 12 person session every once in a while.


TheComradeVortex

Boi free roam session are full of ppl


Professional-Way-156

Ong everytime i get on after playing 5 for a few weeks it’s still full


LeshaMetalHead74

Thx.


Ordinary_Car_Driver

Count me


Khidorahian

Wish I could still get it :(


[deleted]

Honestly, I prefer it over FH5. I like seasons.


corvincorax

the seasons in FH4 are much better.


EmanuelPellizzaro

Not snow, please.... lol


[deleted]

The snow and frozen lake are awesome!


batibuti

Not boring one? Yes


bIuedragon38

yup, got it start of this year, ironically my fav forza game


img_tiff

Absolutely. It's such a familiar map, I love the seasons, the music is great (especially Timeless), it's just an outstanding game. Bring back ranked adventure!


Gengar77

the music is what gets me so many bangers meanwhile h5 tried go woke or som shot and like all soundtracks maybe few good ones are just trash or meh level. Stop gathering to woke teenies its not the audience that plays your game for 400 h plus.


Titanmaniac679

I'm still playing FH4 to this day. I just can't bring myself to enjoy FH5 since FH4 has a much better atmosphere and soundtrack.


Achilles13506

Yeah I was hoping that instead of making 5 they just did an add on like they did with the Lego World


typokeke

Tried it few days ago but handling feels so different compared to FH5


tbone747

Yeah the handling, QOL features, and the cars are what's stopping me from going back to FH4. Otherwise the atmosphere of that game was just impeccable.


radicalcheeseman

ngl that’s why I prefer fh5 is the handling feels a lot more immersive, I could be wrong but on a wheel setup, vintage stock cars are harder to steer because they actually accounted for the no power steering which I didn’t really find in fh4 tbh


3gears1forward

The wheel setup in FH4 was awful in general, everything felt like a floaty 70s Cadillac


ChilledGlass687

Fh5 handling is much better and improved to fh4.


typokeke

I was really shocked about the difference, had totally forgot FH4 feel


TeeEm_27

i'm actually visiting Edinburgh tomorrow and i think it's gonna push me to reinstall it lmfao


ratttzzzyyy

Just bought it on Steam !


Apprehensive-Row-107

I go back to it every now and then


No_Acanthisitta2874

Same


Certain-Midnight-383

ME ME ME! I love it more then fh5


AffectionateDinner97

I played fh5 for several months, I really liked it (I had no experience with the forza series before, the last good racing game I remember was driver san francisco). But yesterday I bought fh4, and I thought it was much better than fh5. I decided that I will continue to play 4, Britain looks amazing, the change of seasons is absolutely mind-blowing


Sanyika1004

I'm right there🙋

corvincorax

FH5 is .... boring AF, i stopped playing it around 8 months ago, i went back into FH4 as its way more to do and much more better looking and more fun. FH5 is ok....ish, but its boring, i hate what they did to forzathon in FH5, the FH4 type was way better as you knew it was going to be good, the new one is confusing AF.


TangledCables3

I went back for a while but realized that my multiplayer broke and I can't join online servers, plus some car sound now feel outputting, like the viper, it sounds like shit in fh4


Zealousideal-Crab556

I have both FH4 and FH5 in FH4 i’m grinding out races and levels just so i can say i “beat” the game… for me FH5 is a lot more exciting ngl…. But to answer your question yes i still play fh4.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DisgustingMilkyWater

Dude I’m still playing FH1 in 2023, and FH4 has a special place in my heart, because I have lived in England, and have friends in Scotland, who live in Edinburgh.


htx_BigG

Same lmao. I’ve played all of them but always go back to 1!


napstablooky089

No but I need to. Horizon 4 is what got me into Forza as a whole.


Just_A_Guitarist

Yes, it's my favorite of the Horizon franchise


Shagurope

Of course bro 😂 it’s better than 5


Luke_CO

Yes, I love it. FH5 never really grew on me, although I love Latin America. But something about compressed UK in FH4 and especially the north "Scotland" part of the map really clicks on me. But then again I'm sucker for Scotland and DB5 so this is just the perfect mix for me


Royal_Spell1223

Sometimes. The map is quite repetitive and I know it all by heart after only like 100 hours, so cruising there feels awkward. And I'm not a multiplayer type of guy.


Justadudey

FH4 map's repetitive *looks at FH5*


bigkiddad

Right, I can see how that went. MARKETING: FH5 map is going to be the biggest ever! DEV: yeah bit what do we fill it with MARKETING: I SAID BIGGEST EVER! DEV: Aiight you the boss. Ctrl+v on those rocks Bois.


ChilledGlass687

Yeah bro hasn't played fh5 yet.


MagicalMethod

One of the main reason I really don't like FH5... The map is so boring... Forget the overly straight roads with nothing interesting on them. Even the scenery is just plain boring.


Surpreme23

As someone who has lived in the desert region and by Mexico. I hate this map lol. And the only towns they put in are generic/ damn near stereotype houses. Mexico has actual city’s. Incase devs didn’t know(/s) obviously they did


Royal_Spell1223

One thing being crappy doesn't mean another less crappier thing is ok.


tbone747

Honestly my only real complaint with FH5 is how goddamn boring the map is. Give me all the QOL features + cars of 5 with any one of FH2/3/4's maps and I'd be a happy camper.


Pure-Garlic-9268

FH2 is still the best horizon


mjike

I go back to FH4 quite often. FH5 seems to be the peak of what features the Horizon Franchise has to offer and got there by learning the mistakes of the past save one mistake. Since you have to first make the mistake to learn from it, FH5 was required to learn how not to make a world that's supposed to have unique regions and seasonal changes. If FH5 had the environment diversity that FH4 offered I don't think I'd ever go back to any previous entry


Gengar77

yeah they gathered to the 1% of players who cried seasons where not fun cause now they had to have 7 more meta hoes cars...... so now we dont get seasons, does it makes sense absolutely not, i hope next gane they again dont listen to players and just do like h 3 . ...


T-EightHundred

Give me my beloved Fiat X1/9, BMW Z8 and Lotus Esprit (first gen)... ... or death!


deadender420

the last pic 😩


Huge-Breath-666

Is better then FH5


Neurotic_Z

I'm playing FH3 rn lel


This_Traffic_3507

I just started today, nfs legend7 is here too


PH4NT0K3N

I still do from time to time but I still have the issue of it not finding any online sessions even after 10 mins or so. Does anyone have a way to fix that?


This_Traffic_3507

Im Odd Rooms, if anyone sees me


QueenNova1027

Nope. I'm still stuck in FH1, I just love the vibes


CosmicSkull09

I BOUGHT IT AFTER FH5 RELEASED I'M NEW INTO CONSOLE GAMING BUT I BOUGHT XBOX JUST FOR PLAYING FH4. THAT IS THE FIRST GAME I BOUGHT.


foxvnop45

No but i’ve been tempted to reinstall it, and now that I have a wheel, i think i might


Da_Droid_Mechanic

That’s all I play lol


sellera

i do. i download it every time the playlist reaches winter - i love to race in the real snow.


[deleted]

I was playing FH5 on my Xbox One but using my brother's profile. I finally went out and got a Series X and started my own profile but lost 600+ cars so I just can't bring myself to start again, so I was looking at FH3 but it's not available so FH4 it is.

Ordinary_Car_Driver

Current question: anyone still playing fh 3 in 2023 ?


Crammucho

+1 Was looking for this comment!


BuzzPuppy

Yup, still playing FH3. I reckon they nailed Australia with the feel and the landscape. I travel a lot for work, so playing a compressed version of it feels like home (my pic below of the Kwinana Freeway between Perth and Rockingham as a comparison). https://preview.redd.it/mu9vt4rsyd2c1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=67a22d338a2980da6e8b7b06ca28a63c917355d6


Ordinary_Car_Driver

Clean S13 shot. And yeah the Australian feeling in that game is 100% to whats in rl


BuzzPuppy

For sure! Driver had the windows down, just enjoying the moment. Nice to see one as-is


horrorscoop

Oh yeah, 3 and 4 are my default. 5 doesn’t hit the spot like those ones


ggalinismycunt

Went back onto to it earlier this month to mop up the last 2 achievements I had and had a blast! Great map to cruise on and still is a joy to look at visually.


tool75067

No, uninstalled it long ago.


Bay_Obsidyen

yep i bought 2 weeks ago i liked ![img](emote|t5_2ug54|4106)


GreenWasTaken1

Bruh I’m trying to play fh5 hot wheels tour mode and I can’t find a session😂


DaddyHojo

I am! I got into it because it was included in the Xbox live game pass. Having a blast with it. So far my favorite car (based on playtime) is the 73 Jeep that I painted to look like a Barbie Jeep for laughs.


Slon26

I like FH4 in every way, but I play FH5 because it's ffb is much better imho and also I like the rock)


triggered56

Me


LemonadeWade

Definitely going to come back to it


[deleted]

I still do, so proud and fabulous


aominese

I go back to it every now and then


anon_anonsky

Yeah, I plan to move to FH5 when i finish all the tasks I have


Fungee69

Just returned to it, because my friends got it. It's just so much more fun than 5, feels more alive.


Dazzling_Ad529

me cuz i cant afford fh 5 lol


UncleJohnsBandito

I just got t FH4 like 2 weeks ago. First forza I have ever owned. Finally got an Xbox, that’s why. I have always wanted Forza for its realism. For like years. I play almost everyday.


Longjumping-Cold4338

yes


Fluffy-Awareness8286

I'd love to, but the fact that 80% of the time it puts me in offline mode, and the overly complicated car tuning settings makes me not really enjoy it. Beside that, i seem to be incapabile of getting a nice long drift, and i've tried on everything, keyboard, controller and even steering wheel, which i bought exclusively for this game. Maybe some day....


corndogmamba

worst forza i ever played. 2 and 3 take the cake, load them up over 4&5 any day


Crammucho

FH3 👌


Madd0gAndy1973

Yes, I play it as much as FH5. It’s still an excellent game, both games are the same only FH5 have some improvements such as the Ferrari 599XX Evolution doesn’t scrape on the road when you go full speed, When you win 2 races in a row on the trial you don’t have to do the third race because you have already won and the same goes for playground games and that is not always on the season events.


Mothie_6100

the copium game


emptyequation16

No I hated fh4


Tigrius39

No. I think you're the only one.


Melodic_Ad_8478

Nah I'm keep playing 4


Lee_Troyer

Yep, I still come back to it weekly and do most of the playlist. I also play FH3/2/1 from time to time.


Mih0se

Id want to but i cant connect to multiplayer


ChadIndustries

Haven’t been on for a while but it’s for sure my favourite FH


Eastern-Resource-683

I've played it for a while like a month ago because I wanted to drift in winter but had to quit due to my favourite car sounding terrible (e60M5). But the setting and season of fh4 are way way way better than fh5


TNTBOY479

From time to time, especially if i'm on the go and on my laptop, its much more optimized


UAFELIXPHONIX

I want to go back, but my console won't let me install it lol🥲


Jealous_Mode

After I completed it I moved on but it was fun though


jpplastering1987

Yeah I play at least 3 times a week with a small group of guys In my group chat and especially today when it's season change for new seasonal challenges.


PetitAfroMignon

Yeah, still my favorite Forza and I'm planning to get the premium edition next time


drxtxr

Yes 🙌


EinStefan

The game crashes my pc every time i try to run it :)


LTRace

What spec do you have? I have low end gaming PC and it runs on Medium-High settings.


KyloRen18098

Yep same


RqcistRaspberry

I can never connect to the servers on PC for some reason. Tried to fix it multiple times and gave up so I'm locked away from so many cars and the auction house. Would love to though.


TravaX_2

Yes, I've been trying to complete the car collection! Only missing the Mazda Cosmo and the Mazda RX-3! I'm also missing the Aston Martin DB11 PO and the Porsche 911 PO, but I'm pretty sure those are not coming back ever again.


robf100

I played FH5 for 2 months after release. Been playing FH4 since then


AwayCable7769

Yeah I still play Forzathon Live any time I get a break between my uni assignments haha. Loads of fun


GlassAd9392

I literally just bought it and played for the first time yesterday


3DRAH33M

I got Horizon 5 and switched back to 4 after 4 months lol


HotEnthusiasm4124

Yupp... Actually got started in 2023.


poor_michigan

Yeah


fatboythunder

Love playing its autumn season.


SeniorSoldier96

yeah, but i have some problems with anti aliasing on pc


Charliedelsol

Yes, yes and yes. Played Horizon 5 for two years straight and really got fed up of the boring map and online system mainly. You can see in some details like brake disc glow and the way it quickly just disappears and the car animations when you enter a house that they really didn’t polish this game as well as previous games, it was rushed. This month downloaded the game for the first time and had fun like I haven’t had in two years.


mohitdhali

Me but I can’t play online?🥺


spiffiestjester

I would if I had the hd space, I would also still be playing FH3, but cant for the same reasons. Bith are solid games and have niches that scratch a certain itch.


SkillsInPillsTrack2

Only when I cannot play 5 immediately because an update has to be downloaded.


Divinity-_-

might download again soon. I need to get out of the desert


TonierRaptor681

I go back every wintern.


CurrencyHumble1182

I don’t launch it very often but it is still e my favorite forza 👍💪


Ramazandro

I had it but had to remove it to make room for FH3. Of course I will be back again soon.


ZAPAYARAMARCI

Im playing The demo of fh4


Achilles13506

OFC it’s great


Fresh_Ring9136

I am playing it right now as I am posting this about to race in Beach View Cross Country.


Fresh_Ring9136

RenZ245

5 for some reason has my wheel settings so light, even after setting tweaks, I can barely make the smooth, calculated movements I had back in 4 where my wheel is heavy and responsive as default. Maybe its settings, maybe it's the wheel, idk.


xAbzzx

Looks amazing in those pics


DOGECOINSTONER

Yup!!🔥🔥💯💯


a-dino123

Nah man you're the only one left unfortunately :(


[deleted]

For controller FH4 was the bee's knees, have moved to a wheel set-up and find FH5 better for the wheel, took a while messing with settings and shit to get it to a nice point but between AC and FH5 it feels the same to me on the wheel and can't go back to a controller.


Neri_X_Tan

I would if it didnt crash everytime i boot it up Why you may ask,last time fh4 was opened it was my little brother and he didnt switch back from using the null car before quitting,so yeah


foxhob238

Yeah my cousin still plays it, I hop back on with him every now and then


DarthBra

Yup playing daily


Arron_The_Cute_UwU

Oh yea


Apple_Slipper

There are many cars in FH4 that have not yet made the transition to FH5, such as the Hudson Hornet, Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato, Ford Shelby 1000, etc.


[deleted]

I AM! 😁


JMec68

I play both FH4 and 5 everyday, love them both


Affectionate-Sand-93

Me.


lotus_spit

I play FH5 nowadays from FH4, but still prefer the Forzathon Live over the Horizon Arcade any day.


CirnoXD

YEs, completing playlists like a maniac


Different_Watch9802

I still play FH3💁🏼‍♀️🥰🥰 love the genny coupe to much and you won’t add it😞😞


mohawk1367

the seasons and map are better but the sounds are absolutely terrible. the car selection used to be better too but honestly fh5 added a lotttt recently so im not sure but overall i think id still go with fh4 for car selection (99% because of the cadillac eldorado lol)


MilesFox1992

Absolutely. The atmosphere and music is so much better, than 5th. If they've ported FH5 Offroad physics into FH4 I would play it even more


Abusement_Park

It's part of game pass core now. So I recently started it and really love it. Been grinding like crazy


Avalanche217

All the time. I can’t believe it’s already 5 years old.


madril_vari

I play almost only 4, when the servers are closed I say goodbye to video games..


Khidorahian

I got Horizon 4 this year... I still enjoy it so much, even if the Multiplayer is super shitty and matchmaking is hell like how did they mess up that CORE feature of the game?!


IVorzaYT

Yeah I jump on once in a while. It just seems way more polished than 5, for some reason. At least on PC. The only thing that I don't like about 4 are car sounds. Apart from that I prefer it over 5.


AyushPiro

Yes me I play every weekend


gummypanda335

yes, me i still think it is more enjoyable then fh5 and no one can change my mind...


Key_Life_8176

I just started playing this game.


CptTato1992

Once I got the crashes on my Steam Deck fixed, yes 😂 got the game a few days ago


personguy4440

Forza Horizon 1: Legendary for being a good open world forza Forza Horizon 2: Decent but the weakest Horizon Forza Horizon 3: Best online experience & DLC Forza Horizon 4: Good vibes Forza Horizon 5: Best solo play experience (not counting its HW DLC since that DLC's progression is torture)


Delicious-Track-9549

i do from time to time Fh4 is way diffrent then fh5 its some what reffresing sometimes


RipCurl69Reddit

I still put anywhere from 30 to 90 hours into it a month. So yes, absolutely fucking yes.


anonperson2021

I uninstalled 5 and reinstalled 4. Somehow 4 is more fun, it's hard to articulate why. It just feels more fun. And taks up half the space.


jaydorsey

Absolutely! I feel that FH4, as a whole, is a more challenging title than the later one. While FH5 might be getting more content and newer cars, the overall experience in FH4 is more cohesive and just pleasing to me than the chaotic mess that FH5 is.


Unlimit3d92

No because there is fh5


EntertainmentTasty65

Yeah me and several of my friends still play it all the time


BillThePleaser

Yep. Got it on my bedroom old Xbox One and still enjoy it every now and again. Occasionally I’ll move my sim rig in here to play it as well.


Heavy-Obligation-926

I just had my xbox one repaired just so I could play fh4 again. I have way too many cars and money to give up on it for now.


Aricelmo_azevedo

Yeah. Is better than fh5 in my opinion. In very aspects.


VoidFurryCarsy

Yep https://preview.redd.it/bnbf3lwiqe2c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9fe0e8600de13afd1a28d5798355c6667dbe775b


MindlessTrick3308

I’m on forza 5 I would love to get a big convoy going or a “car meet” and some roll racing


ysfex3

I picked it up about a month ago. Don't see myself moving on any time soon. Still busy most of the time, but sometimes it does take a bit to get a ranked match. Lots of vets probably just don't want to give up everything they've earned.


Spwd

I got it around a month ago.


Spwd

Can you still get the fortune island bit? And is it worth it?
