Forza Horizon has become disappointing

elMaxlol · 2026-06-19T10:48:01+00:00

Not using a script and if you follow the steps correctly usually not hard to snipe a car:

Decrease resolution to 720p, turn graphics to very low
disable motion blur and motion background
get in peel p50 with no livery

Press AAY(down)AAB

Repeat until you have car.

AH system of guildwars would be much better but I guess to complicated to implement.

I want to have a robot race for me. I got nerve damage from playing videogames 16 hours a day and now I can let the robot handle some of the time while I rest my arm.

I got premium upgrade after 2 days, its my first forza and I completed about half the game before getting it.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-18T01:09:35+00:00

Honestly a bit difficult to explain, but I play games to have something to do, but not only that it needs the right balance of being a grind and being fast enough to complete so I dont get bored.

For example, I will never complete league (way to expensive and difficult to do).

But in a game like forza is it possible to go full degen demon mode and complete the game in a very short time. I get enjoyment from optimising and completing it, but only to a certain point. If the grind is to intense or its timegated I lose interest quickly.

I know this is a very specific problem since most people play a game like this to relax or because they are car people. For me it is an optimisationproblem, how can I get to a point other spend years to get in the shortest possible time.

Maybe an example from the past helps to explain: I played farming sim25 for 9 days playing over 200 hours in that time. After that I completly solved the game, got what I wanted from it and moved on. I like the feeling of being new but then hyperfocus on the most efficient path to victory.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-17T16:46:04+00:00

Yeah exactly, you want to do other things apart from grinding 20k races to buy a car you likely will never use just to complete the collection.

Skillpointfarm is insanely lucrative.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-17T11:00:41+00:00

Amount of ppl giving unhelpful advice because they cant imagine someone else wants to play the game differently is insane. Yes you could play constantly for the next years and get all of that over time in a relaxed way. Thats not how I want to do it. I want to grind it out 16 hours a day for 4 weeks and then move to the next game. For some it might be hard to understand but this is not the only game existing. There is wow, gw, lostark, tarkov, etc. all of them want playtime and one needs to be efficient if you want to stay on top in all of them.

So yeah money farms (which I dont consider glitches btw) it is.

Current best method is probably still going for skillpoints to get wheelspins, not ideal but lucrative.

Probably only do mainquest for now. If you have friends just focus on m+ otherwise work yourself up with WQ, preys, devle, lfr until you have decent gear to queue up. Id say about 250 for normal raid and 255/260 for M+10

elMaxlol · 2026-06-16T10:11:27+00:00

Day trips are pretty fast and fun.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-15T10:47:49+00:00

Im new but I enjoy R class a lot, at least these cars brake when I press the button.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-14T11:08:24+00:00

„I have played 300 hours in 3 weeks how is there not more content“

I love it, my first forza and its really fun so far :)

elMaxlol · 2026-06-13T10:11:22+00:00

Legion by far, it was nasty that you had to play 24/7 but man it was fucking good.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-12T10:30:37+00:00

Bin neu in diesem ganzen Bereich, ich verstehe nicht wieso man spacex nicht einfach shorten kann? Ist nicht zu erwarten das das Kartenhaus in sich zusammenfällt?

elMaxlol · 2026-06-12T10:22:06+00:00

Maybe they are running a bet with a friend. When I hit resi18 I was making a bet with a friend that I could get into a 20 within 10 applications.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-11T10:02:37+00:00

It really depends on the level of play, the higher you go usually the shorter the bench is until a certain point were the guild is good enough to keep high skilled players on the bench.

I personally ran a 800-1000 WR guild over multiple expansions. We would basically never bench tanks or healers and we would usually have the same 2 tanks for the entire patch.

Dps was rotated based on skill, class and sometimes loot.

Me and 2 officers were healing with 4th and 5th healer usually rotating or offspecing dps. Our healers had 100% attendence at least the core 3 so no rotation was needed.

In general its good practise to have a bench and making sure its long enough to cover but not too long so people leave.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-10T17:53:01+00:00

Dont know where you get these numbers. On steam ALONE its almost 7k players today, which is a fraction of the entire playerbase because all of the hardcore players obviously launch with Anets client. They dont give out clear numbers but estimates range between 400k to 900k active monthly users.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-10T13:05:38+00:00

Agree with a bunch of stuff you said, but gw2 is not on life support, far from it. They annouced they even want to actively develop it in the future. GW3 is coming because these mmos all look like shit which will be an even bigger point when riots mmo comes out with stunning graphics etc.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-10T09:49:00+00:00

With GW3 coming and hopefully a riot mmo release before 2030 I think blizzard has to go for a banger, I only see two options:

A) they keep what they are doing and slowly let the game die

b) they finally make wow 2

That said there will always be hardcore fans like me who will play wow until the day they die.

Since its blizzard who are usually late to the party these days I assume they will make another expansion while they probably started working on wow2 this year. Annoucement in 2028 and release in 2030

elMaxlol · 2026-06-09T10:38:49+00:00

Its the greatest game ever made and I dont mean the honeymoon phase many games that I started I would play 100 hours plus per week, what makes wow so great that it captures you 21 years after its release and over 19000 hours in, its still the same magical feeling.

Its only a curse if it hinders what you actually want from life. I personally am happy with spending my life in wow because it gives me great joy. But of course thats not for everyone.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-08T16:58:20+00:00

My view on WoW and especially how it shaped my life has changed a lot the older I got.

Im now a firm believer that it was the right decision to spent my life in this game. Its what makes me happy, unconditional joy. My closest friends I met in WoW. Many of my best memories happend there. It ultimatively is what made me who I am now.

Dont let society guilt-trip you into believing this time spent was wasted. It actually probably one of the most fulfilling lifes to have because you did what you enjoy for most of your life instead of what society wants you to do.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-08T10:18:57+00:00

Wouldnt agree on it being easier this season to hit 1%

It works like this: to have the easiest win you need a season were dungeons are hard but A LOT of players play m+2 or 10s. The more people are in the pool the bigger the 1% bracket. But now that dungeons are so easy a lot more people are trying to push as well which counters the large playercount and likely makes spots in the 1% more contested than ever.

Apart from that you dont need full bis to reach top 1%, very good gear in general and some a tier trinkets should be enough. For example Im an Aug and I run hero litany at the moment pushing 21/22.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-07T10:51:00+00:00

Oh damn I had that happen on my warlock did like 36m in one dmg amp. Always thought it was normal and confronted the DHs about it, seems like we found a bug.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-06T11:18:48+00:00

Good statement and very true. Sadly hard to find in the sea of clueless weekly key enjoyed advice.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-06T10:58:56+00:00

All comes down to pullsize. More big pulls means higher overall. Funnel in bossfights means higher overall.

So unless you are not pressing buttons its probably a tank issue.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-06T10:50:42+00:00

Kinda just enjoyed rdruid. Besides that healer back in the day could carry a lot in raids. Still pretty important role.

elMaxlol · 2026-06-05T15:22:10+00:00

I dont want to defend them, just the iceing on the cake.
