    Лучшая гоночная игра из когда либо выпущенных.
    Великолепная графика, огромный автопарк, шикарная физика для аркады.

    One of the best racing games in recent history, good reason to get Xbox one and I am Playstation fan!
    Great locations, Scotland (and UK overall) is amazing setting. Great work, Playground games.

There’s a huge amount of cars for you to get to grips with and each car has had a lot of thought and effort placed into them which means every car is thrilling to race. Everything about the gameplay feels rewarding and the progression system means you’ll return back to the game time and time again. The content the game possesses will no doubt keep you satisfied for a huge number of hours and the variety the content has is absolutely spectacular. Technically the game is straight perfection and the controls and handling stay tight and responsive throughout your time with the game. The world in which the game takes place is mesmerizing and the added effects of the different seasons means your racing style can change at the drop of a hat. I was very impressed with the online components in the game and racing against real people gives the game even more replayability. Forza Horizon 3 was for me the best racing game of all time and I didn’t think it could be surpassed in any way. I will however hold my hands up and admit I was wrong though because Forza Horizon 4 blows Forza Horizon 3 out of the water which is very impressive to say the least. Everything about this game is pure perfection and there have been many times where the game just had me in awe. The visuals and sound design are breathtakingly brilliant and the attention to detail in the world in which the game takes place in makes racing an immersive and fantastic experience. Speaking about racing there’s an abundance of cars you can get behind the wheel in and each of them handle like a dream and that’s because the technical side of the game is so realistic. In fact the content on the whole is very realistic and that’s very impressive considering that the game has a huge amount of content for you to get to grips with and you’ll no doubt return back to the game time and time again. In terms of problems and shortcomings the game has none in my opinion and when it’s all said and done Forza Horizon 4 is without a doubt my game of the year so far and I think it’s going to be extremely difficult to beat.… Expand

    In my opinion, Forza Horizon 3 is the best arcade racing game ever made. Somehow Forza Horizon 4 manages to be even better.

    My only complaint is that the seasons lasts for a whole week meaning that when winter ends, you'll have to wait for 3 weeks before being able to play winter again. And if you're unable to play during that week you will entirely miss that season. It just feels a bit weird.

    Don't let yourself be fooled. Forza Horizon 4 is a good game, but not nearly as goo as it's predecessors. It has everything what the previous Horizon titles had. The four seasons are really a huge game changer, i liked the kinda story mode missions as well, and everything else just work the same as it wored before.

The four seasons are really a huge game changer, i liked the kinda story mode missions as well, and everything else just work the same as it wored before. But in a technical point oh my God, this game is broke as Hell! The Horizon Life online mode doesn't work most of the times, it has serious issues to join a server, and even if you manage to join a session, you will be dropped out to solo mode after any event. So basically you must rejoin to online mode after every race. The Showdown PvP events are broken as well, because in that case the game does not respond to any controller commands, so basically you are forced to restart your game at that point. The ghosting in online events are also broken, because if someone got revinded in front of you in a race, it doesn't matter if he is ghosted, he still gonna has collision and it can screw up your race. The latest update managed to half the number of framerates and there are so much minor issues across the game, it is very annoying! Because i never see this kind of bugs in the previous titles! Don't misunderstand me! If you are looking for a Horizon feeling, you definitely gonna get it from this game, but from a technical point, this game is a huge stepback. Worst thing is the developers are not even responding regarding this problems, so at this point, after 2 weeks of release we still have no idea if these problems are going to be fixed in the near future, or not. I have trusted vote to this game with my money, and i'm so sorry to say that i'm disappointed.… Expand

    This is a great looking racing game and the racing itself is decent. That's about all I will give it props for. Seeing my friends' names used for drivers in the game makes it feel completely fake, the soundtrack is terrible and can't be permanently turned off, and if you turn down the voice-overs while you're driving (can't mute 'em), it turns the voices down in the cutscenes as well.

I don't get why they added so much extra crap to the concept of racing. Give me the cars, the road and the land, and leave everything else out, or at least the option to do so. I want to listen to the engine, tires, and wind, not someone telling me constantly what to do or where to go. I dont really need all that if I have a GPS point to drive to on the minimap.… Expand

    Do rukou se nám dostala závodní hra, která aktuálně nemá konkurenci. NFS šlape vodu a je to dobrá hra na mobil a The Crew 2 to vše totálně překombinovalo. Jediným konkurentem FH4 je tedy FH3 :-) Nelze tedy jinak, než mávnou šachovnicovým praporkem a vyhlásit jasného vítěze, který kromě hratelnosti a zábavnosti ukázal, jak mohou hry ve 4K vypadat!

    - Roads are curvy with nice elevation changes, which feel more enjoyable to race or just drive on compared to FH3. In Winter and Autumn, lower grip is even more fun to take turns, with the back end stepping out on loose snow or leaves.    … Expand

Since then Playground Games And Turn 10 Studies have been creating the top best racing game in the world. Through out every game they introduce so many new things so its not the same playing experience as the last one. Forza Horizon 4 has Dynamic Seasons which causes the map to be changed completely 4 times not only does it create an amazing scenery it also effects your driving experience for the entire map. In winter Lakes freeze over and you can get to places you haven't gone before there's less traction on the road. In Summer water levels drop and the lakes aren't as deep as of spring the water rises and the land has a lot more mud for those Off Roaders. Or you can find the beauty in the season Fall and just cruise and enjoy the 4K Graphics or the new 60 FPS Mode. There is a huge variance of cars all the way from extreme off roading in a Mercedes Pro Racing truck to an extreme track toy the Bugatti Chiron on the best UK high ways. So I enjoy this amazing game and I hope you feel the same way when you play it enjoy!… Expand

    GRAPHICS: Wow, this game is beautiful. It looks great on a base Xbox One and even more amazing on the Xbox One X with 4K and HDR. The cars have a lot of detail and the customization shows on every car on the server. The game has great scenic areas perfect for taking photos. The worse graphics are lack of options of the drivatars. But that's it.

    PRESENTATION: You get to see and drive all the seasons in the first 10 minutes of the game so the intro is awesome. You also know what your goal is from the beginning, to be invited to the Horizon Circuit. There are in engine cut scenes for major events/races, pre-racing taunting, victory celebrations and the pause menu looks great. It's all great.

    SOUND: The music in this game is fun too. Major races have preset tracks, however most of the time you will be listening to one of the radio stations. All the tracks are great. The cars also sound great. None of them sound the same and sometimes I found myself turning off the radio just to hear the roar of the engines. There's even some fun thrown in with musical horns.

    GAMEPLAY: Let's get straight to it, this game is super fun! It's more than just a racing game. There are "Danger Zones" to discover and perform awesome jumps, collectible billboards to smash and some of them are difficult to get to, speed zones, barns to find vehicles in, wheel spins, and best of all there's a progression system for each car! Want to be the best drag racer? You can focus on your drag cars. Want to be the best off-road racer? You can focus on those vehicles. You can even play the game in co-op (best part of being an Xbox owner is you get to play most games with your friends). This is easily the most simple and fun game I have played in a very long time.    … Expand

    You know I never really got into racing games? I mean I like driving in other games, but racing games it's just... that's all there seems to be you know? So it's a testament to how good this game is that I'm having an absolute blast. It's already been said, but it's really true: this game is absolutely gorgeous, and the way things look in the different seasons of the year adds to that too.You know I never really got into racing games?

    The variety is great. A lot of racing games (Gran Turismo jumps to mind) seem to take the path of "if it's not a modern souped up car it's trash" but this series embraces diversity. Don't get me wrong, it's great to redline it on a highway in a modern sports car in this, but sometimes I feel like rumbling around in a classic muscle car or maybe tearing it up offroad in this beast of a truck, and this game it's like "yeah that's awesome here ya go!" The diversity of types of racing events and activities in this game supports that also. Last but certainly not least, the different seasons. Crazy smart idea; it's one of those things that now that it's been done, everyone's going to be thinking from here on out (about every game in this genre probably) "where's the different conditions?"

    If there's one small downside I've noticed so far, it does feel a little grindy and random getting comestics, emotes etc for your drivatar. I kinda wish you could just use your game money to buy them instead of relying solely on wheel spins (I never seem to get any clothes I want); but this is a racing game, not dress-up.

    So yeah, take it from someone that doesn't even really like racing games. This game is insanely good, even if you don't like the genre I'd recommend at least a rental, you very well might find you want to own it.    … Expand

    Compared to Forza Horizon 3, Forza Horizon 4 sucks and isn't worth playing. Keep reading to learn why...

    Don't buy the hype, this game is a sloppy wet turd. Compared to Horizon 3 this game down right sucks. The absolute biggest flaw are the new drivatars and the clothing and dance moves you can 'win' for them.

    Don't buy the hype, this game is a sloppy wet turd. Compared to Horizon 3 this game down right sucks. The absolute biggest flaw are the new drivatars and the clothing and dance moves you can 'win' for them. It's as if Microsoft decided to blend an element of SIMs into this game and it fails on every level. The clothing is overly flamboyant, gaudy, and pathetic, the dance moves are nothing short of silly and stupid, and yet somehow both are supposed to be valuable to the player. The concept of the wheelspin is still there, but now there are super wheelspins with three prizes to win on every spin. While playing tonight I happened to earn a super wheel spin; I won a sparkly jacket, an extremely feminine looking tank top, and a bowler hat. No car, no credits... instead clothes that don't amount to crap in the game. Considering the amount of time, money, and effort put into developing and now playing this game, the idea of clothes, dance moves, and toot-toot horns somehow being of some value to a player should be enough to get the developer who thought of it fired. I hold no excitement for wheelspins any more. I only know they're going to infuriate and frustrate me every time.

    The second biggest flaw in this software turd is how OP the computer is. I consider myself an average player of the game, experienced from Horizon 3, but I did a race tonight and was 11 full seconds behind first place. I was 2 seconds behind 2nd and a half a second behind 3rd so it wasn't as if I was driving like an idiot. I'd really like to know how the first place "drivatar" was so good? And this game behavior is common! even at lower skill levels. As far as I can tell there are no turbo boosts or silly Mario Kart-type engine pumps that suddenly propel a car 8 miles down a track, and yet that's exactly what occurs when racing the game, and this occurs on a regular basis. I've been 2/3rds of a mile in front of 2nd place on the home stretch of a race and came in 8 because 2nd through 7th burst ahead. No mistakes in racing on my part, I was cruising straight and solid and still lost. No doubt on it; the game literally cheats.

    Both of these equate to one factor about Forza Horizon 4; it's simply not fun to play. Tonight I actually fired up Horizon 3 and raced a few bouts, and I remembered that 3 is actually fun to play. I earned a wheelspin in 3 and actually flinched until I remembered I was actually going to win something of value.... a car or credits. Switching back to Horizon 4 and I was quickly reminded that I had wasted my money on that version...and yes, I bought the extended version, VIP pass, DLC's.....all of it.

    There are other factors that make the game more crappy than annoying; the fact that difficulty levels are far harder, that your ability to earn credits is greatly reduced, but every car and upgrade is far more expensive. Add to that you have to 'buy' houses, now (another SIMs element?) and that "influence", fans in Horizon 3, doesn't seem to be of any value at all in the game. And the music is garbage compared to 3, all around. Each station plays far worse tunes than the previous rendition.

    One positive piece; Horizon 4 does look good on an Xbox One X in 4K, but that's short compensation when you come in fourth in a series against "novice" racers, earn a wheelspin and win flowery, sparkly flip flops that are considered "rare". The games a joke. If you like racing games; stick with Horizon 3 and save yourself some frustration.    … Expand

    Okay, so for the start i want to apologize for my english but i think you will get the clue of my thread.

    Its month from premiere so its a good time to sum up some things. For the start, game was 9/10 for me but after whole moth of playing as "ultimate" copy owner my mark droped down to 6/10. I played a lot of FH3 (something about 80 hours) and in FH4 i have something around 30h. Im more competetive player than casual. For the start, things that i like in Horizon 4:

    -Emoticons and avatar customization, its pretty fresh and i like it. If you dont like it, you can easily ignore it. For me its fun.
    - Team rankeds. For all of you it could be a little controversial but let me explain. I noticed, that players FINALLY get it, there is less amount of rammers than in FH3 BUT there thing is more complicated. I will explain it later.
    - Amazing tracks
    - Skills trees on cars
    - Game is easier. Freeroam is less frustrating (less thing to hit) and there is fewer cases when u can lost your sick skillchains. Cars handling is simpler (+125% CR player here on Elite controller) and its more fun to play and riding around
    - Bots on "Unbeatable" are easier. In FH3 they were STUPIDLY fast on corners. In FH4 they fix that.
    - Seasons are ok, fresh touch.

    Now things that i hate and i noticed, and Polish Community in our official Facebook group.

    - Long time to get into ranked/multiplayer. Are you serious? Its get stupidly long! Where is the reason to wait so long when at all i get into non-classified players? We are already month from premiere and you still dont fix it, thats a shame
    - My +125% CR rank gives nothing in FH4 in multi. I could easily win adventure in FH3 ending in the middle, now its more complicated because of team-only rankeds.
    - Hendicap. Its impossible to win match playing 6 vs 4 (if you are in more numeroes team). If i with my friend end up on 1 and 2 place, we get 450 and 400 points its impossible to win with retards in your team because 3, 4 and 5 place get 400 points. I lost a lot of games like that, and win a lot. Playing in less counted player team is easier, because only bad players rage quiting and you get more points.
    - Second problem, game not updates score points when someone leave in race. 3 of your teammates can leave so you are playing 6 v 3 by rest of the race and there is no way you can win it.
    - I have no idea who thought that will be a good idea to random cross/road and classes.
    - Playground Games need to smoke some good **** the most complicated, curved and tight tracks are in road S2 in winter Season. Good joke folks.
    - Not all cars have winter tyres
    - No championships in singleplayer
    - More grind like in Fh3. I never repeated race in Horizon 3 because i wanted to get something. In FH4 you need to grind to get Goliath, for example. You have a lot of cars taht you like? Grind skillchains
    - Getting more points in skillchains that 600k is pointless. You get 6000 xp points and 10 SP max
    - "Anything Goes" races should named "Anything vs Ford Focus, Audi TT and Chalenger", seriously its nothing fun to being catched up by Ford Focus when u ride your Vulcan 430kmh+. We need more variety here!
    - Glitchers still on top in scoreboards. WTF? Devs didnt know limitations of their own game? Im Software Developer too and i belive, that it can be blocked by software. D100 car and 500kmh+ dont seems to be stupid by Playground Games?
    - Season championships are boring. And that rewards, +5000kr? One super Wheelspin? Devs dont know their own game? 5000kr is nothing here. Why so many cross - championships there? Seriosly, even in ranked i played cross-events most, what the hell? I feel first expansion will be something like Rally in FH1 :v
    - Clubs have no sense. Where is in-club rank? Where is awards for getting exp for your club?
    - Forzathon Live not scaling. You can never end it up in 3 players or end all live in 3 minutes. It depends on how many players join it. You should scale tasks to end
    - Having cars in C, B classes are pointless because of lack of adventures with these classes

    At all, for whole month of playing it looks like reskin of Forza Horizon 3. We get less content, more of them are the same as FH2. We get a little better graphics, seasons and drift tuning. Thats all. The rest of all are less. No community chalenges (in FH4 it calls like singleplayer missions for drift club, YT channel etc, you know what i mean), no championships (it makes single much shorter), you cant choose what you want to play in multiplayer. This game is step back, but i love to playing it, Thats why i posted my thoughts and i belive, devs will fix it in the future and FH5 will be finally something new. For now, its 5/10 for me. Its good, but we should get more.    … Expand

    Se ve genial en un xbox one x, se juega excelente definitivamente los Forza son los mejores juegos de conducción, muchos fanboys trataran de hacerlo menos pero no hagan caso de su ardor en definitiva el juego esta genial.

    Forza Horizon 4 is a another game for people who are into cars, and I mean into cars. Yet if you are like me and can basically pump your own gas Forza Horizon 4 is for you as well. The game can be as complicated or as simplistic as you like. Unfortunately this is my first entry I've played in the Forza series so I won't be able to compare it to other games.

    There is a story in this game    Forza Horizon 4 is a another game for people who are into cars, and I mean into cars. Yet if you are like me and can basically pump your own gas Forza Horizon 4 is for you as well. The game can be as complicated or as simplistic as you like. Unfortunately this is my first entry I've played in the Forza series so I won't be able to compare it to other games.

    There is a story in this game and it is as basic as you'd think. You are a new racer that they let you create from a basic template of models who must prove themselves to win? I guess. I started skipping the dialog basically it is the same thing as every racing game win races and become number one. The one thing I will say is do not pick your name as the name of your character it is too frigging weird when the game keeps talking to you personally.

    The cars look beautiful. The landscape and weather changes are beautiful. The character models are scary as all hell. They do not match the rest of the game. It's like at a fast food restaurant the cars are the picture of what you ordered while the people are the actually burger you recieve. I know what you are thinking what about the gameplay? Graphics and story are nice but how does it feel?

    The gameplay is wonderful. Like I said in the beginning you can have the most realistic racing experience or the most handheld arcade like experience. I chose the latter of the two. Regardless how you play the game is a wonderful mix of mindless fun driving around the open world, and tight on the edge of your seat close races. They will make the racing close, but say you lose it isn't game over or anything which makes it insanely more enjoyable. Not once did I ever worry about not making it to the next stage because I came in 5th this keeps the cursing down to a minimum. The customization is insane in this game. I didn't dive too deep because I have no idea what I needed to do, but they have auto level up for cars which is what I did. It doesn't stop there you can customize the outside of your car in just about whatever you'd like. I drove around in a fan made Spongebob car which is my personal favorite way to win. The game also will have you race against your friend list even if they don't own the game. It is a little touch that made me so much more aggressive then driving against random AI names. There is so much to do from events, races, collectables, etc that you will have a lot of fun from this game.

    Overall if you're a racing fan this game is well worth the price, and if you have Xbox Game Pass and aren't a racing fan give it a shot the game will surprise you. I was amazed how much fun is to be had and I could not care less about cars in general so definitely give it a shot. I give this a BUY.    … Expand

    What a phenomenal game, in every respect! I haven't played a racer in years and I'm just loving this. I'm playing on the base Xbox One and it both looks great and plays great - I couldn't ask for more. Add to that, I downloaded this from GamePass, which in and of itself is another phenomenal service!

    First off, FH4 is a good game. However as for me, as for my level of entertainment, that it's a step down from FH3, which is a close-to-perfection game for me.

    Fot starters, I hate the fact that there are emotes/horns/clothes in prize wheels. That sometimes just makes me berserk. Secondly, the OST for FH3 was just beautiful, but FH4 radio is just.... there. Bass Arena, Pulse and    First off, FH4 is a good game.

    Secondly, the OST for FH3 was just beautiful, but FH4 radio is just.... there. Bass Arena, Pulse and Block Party are nowhere near the FH3 level. XS is good though.

    The other problem I have is rubber banding. Tell me whatever you want, it IS present in the game. And it's somewhat annoying that some random drivatar is ridiculously overpowered.

    And last but not least, IMO, the northern part of the UK is an inferior setting to Australia.

    The only other thing I didn't really like is that you actually need to unlock skills songs, drone and fast travelling via buying the houses, even though the idea of hoses as a substitute to festival cites is interesting.

    Gameplay-wise it made steps in right direction diversifying the gameplay and the game modes.

    Graphics is off the charts. Handling is great and what I like the most that no two cars in the game handle in the same manner.

    The game is really great, but for me not as great as FH3.    … Expand

    Game is great The seasons are nice because they add more replay ability. But the AI could be fixed a little but if you play like a normal person you shouldn’t have any problems with it.

    FH4 te hace sentir la libertad de un mundo diseñado con buen gusto y lleno de contenido. Excelente sensación de conducción y ambientación en cuanto al apartado artístico y sonoro.

    Best racing game ever. There are no disadvantages - everything is as good as it's possible! It's one of that games which DLCs were actually worth their price and i can't wait for new Expansion release! F*cking masterpiece, must buy for everyone.

    So I have loved these open world forza games (2 and 3) but 4 is just ...not right.
    Lets start with the cars: They are nearly IDENTICAL to 3. So that in itself was a huge disappointment.
    The graphics are about the same as 3 so there are no complaints there, just not as "stellar" as i was hoping with my xbox one x on my 4k tv. Gameplay is a huuuuuuge disappointment. There are far less    So I have loved these open world forza games (2 and 3) but 4 is just ...not right.

    The graphics are about the same as 3 so there are no complaints there, just not as "stellar" as i was hoping with my xbox one x on my 4k tv.
    Gameplay is a huuuuuuge disappointment. There are far less races in game and you can move on by literally coming in last? What the crap is that, last?! Seems they have embraced the "Everyone is a winner, even though they are a loser" mentality that is plaguing the US of A right now. So needless to say there isnt a good feel for competition when everyone is just ho huming their way through a race because whether you come in first or last you get the same amount of credits.
    Wheel spins.
    This is just flat out broken! They have added this "dress up your character" and emotes bs that children like. So 80% of the time you get clothes or emotes in wheel spins, not cars. Talk about frustrating when you hope to get a cool new ride to edit and you get... a pair of shoes for your character in a car game???
    Map Size.
    It feels a little smaller then FH3 and it might be because there are far less races to do. I think i beat this entire game in a week, and not rushing at all.
    4 Seasons.
    So the four seasons idea is kinda cool! HOWEVER.... it automatically changes (ya, ya, i know thats how it is real life) but the trouble is if i dont log in at the right time i could miss an entire season! Or it will change while i am in the middle of a lake getting trick points then i sink! (true story!). You should be able to choose a season and join that server.
    1/2 mile race.
    There is none! This was a huuuuuuuge selling point for me in FH3 because everyone and their mother races this track at some point while playing Forza. Well, there is not track in 4! There is some dinky track on the beach (yes, sandy race) but its nothing like that airport on 3.

    All in All i fell ripped off! This seems to be a huge problem today- great games are regurgitated with a few visual updates and minor bs and sold as a new game. I am not impressed with this generation of gaming. There isnt enough new games...Anyway, i wouldnt suggest to anyone to pick up this game because there isnt anything new and there are better open world car games (the crew) and better racing games (forza). And the new "toon editing" and buying a house is just stupid and totally missed its mark for people that love cars! This Forza Horizon 4 just doesnt hit the mark on anything unfortunately.    … Expand

    Forza Horizon 4 sets a new mark: from now on, any open-world racing game that doesn’t feature passing of the seasons will feel like it’s missing something very important both for immersion and variety. [Issue #233, p.50]

    Horizon 4 is far and away the most joyous and welcoming racing game I’ve ever played. It’s flexibility in difficulty and customization are laudable, but there’s one word that comes to mind when I think of this game — freeing. Watching the stunning countryside of Britain whiz by in a dream car is just liberating.
