Picked it up a couple days ago on Xbox One. Loving it so far. Basically it's a better version of Horizon 2, with more cars, smoother UI for mods, shorter load times, and way better online gameplay.

Also have it for Xbox One here, haven't played online yet (not much time to play at the moment). It's pretty good compared to other racers and it's a step up from Horizon 2 (which I also liked). I'd recommend getting it.

i have it as well for xbox one, dont like playing online and can easily get lost for hours just fucking about racking up skill chains. got the VIP edition so get double credits on the wheel spins and also won the horizon edition E36 M3 that give double drift points!!

never having played a Horizon game before i am really impressed with it, reminds me of the love i had for racing games back in the NFS underground days!

So you can get cars like the Enzo you would never get if you did it normally. The cheat is to get more points not to beat the game. Hating much?

You don't have to buy the 97 m3 horizon edition at auction but it works the best. I bought mines for 800k.
Go to the grand speed hwy map and at around 10% there are guard rails you can use to do drifts. The drifts points go up like crazy and you keep going back and redoing the drifts then finish the race with about 20mins into the game. Make sure you're at 100% difficulty on the settings. I think there are youtube clips available. I think I did like 950k points in 1 sitting.

Now if you can't afford the 97 M3 horizon edition, I initially used a FRS with a 2jz swap everything maxed out. You also need to make sure your skill things are all maxed out esp the top left which is something like get double points for your next 3 races.

That sounds like too much work lol. I just wait for a double points song to come on and then go drifting. I can normally pull 700-800k skill points in a 3 minute song.
