oh god what why is it getting delisted (I assume it won't go the way of the crew and made unplayable after that date [DLC's already gone and festivals are going away but main game will still playable])
Great post though! Been waiting for Forza Horizon 4 in particular to drop in price

Yeah, just saw that lol.
Side note; I was looking for a comment on SG I think on this thread - https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/LN4za/what-games-have-been-on-your-wishlist-the-longest where someone said Forza Horizon 4 was on their wishlist for a long time but I can't find it... I swear I saw someone commenting about FH4 being on their wishlist. Maybe they edited their comment since I distinctly remember them putting more than 3 games from their wishlist when the thread was just asking for top 3 lol. Definitely can't find it again.
edit: nevermind, found him, it was the other wishlist thread - https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/qeh3Y/so-got-any-games-on-your-summer-sale-wishlist

Thank you, bought the game and can't wait to play it. My gratitude :)

Majority of 4 and 5's content is the seasons/series content and that is probably going away.
Edit: yup. Such a shame, wish they had just unlocked it as content you could do on your own time instead. Very disappointing.
Comment has been collapsed.
There are star card objectives locked to seasonal events, achievements locked to seasonal events, and it was a good way to earn content/wheelspins as opposed to spending a ton of time grinding to fight in the auction house. That aside, secondary reasons to replay content with specific restrictions/conditions adds replayability.

No, it's not only that. It's mainly because they have to pay for the car brandings, which probably costs way more than the music

They removed the crew from people's libraries sparking a big movement (Stop KIlling games) to get the EU and other countries government's to clarify if that is legal.
Comment has been collapsed.
The Crew works no more. If you purchased it on steam, you still can install it but you can no more start it, as the game has been removed from everyone on Uplay. It was a slap to the face, as all players got a message starting uplay saying something like "we removed the crew 1 from you, why not continue the adventure with motorfest ?"
It's really different, here after game is delisted, you'll still be able to play Forza for some years as the servers will still be up.
And even more maybe, can it still be run offline ? Players say that partly yes.
And Need for speed it's even more different because if the servers are shut down one day, the full game can be run offline, at least as long as EA app still run.
Comment has been collapsed.
The Crew or The Crew 2? Like coley said, the servers are offline for The Crew (1) and it's been removed form uplay entirely (which I was not aware of). The reason why it's an issue with The Crew AND it will be a problem for both The Crew 2 (not yet offline) and The Crew Motorfest is those games have a constant internet connection requirement to play the singleplayer campaign. So once the servers go down, unless you have a workaround to host a dummy server or get the offline mode working, the game is just dead sadly enough. Forza Horizon 4 does not have any such requirement so it'll be fine.

Have you played a FH before? Which other racing games did you like so far?
FH is arcade, you can adjust a lot, but it's definitely easier than simulators. It's a car collector from the start (at least as long as the game as a service part and the player based auction house is still available), no "career". Not a real story either, just there's a festival and you are the new star, but there are special side activities with themes, also collaborations with Top Gear etc. Besides Lego DLC and some fancy clothing it has a more serious tone as NfS e.g., no "cool" characters or flashy effects.
I'd recommend to get the Ultimate, price difference isn't much right now and you get two addons, Lego is about a small Lego city with a few cars, but you can also use the usual cars. Fortune Island is mostly dirt terrain and bad weather conditions. Depending on playstyle 5-10 additional hours each.
Comment has been collapsed.
Finally! I was promised "delisting" almost 3 years ago, after FH 5 release!
But here is the pickle 🥒 It will be 90% off before December 15th.
Comment has been collapsed.
Here is another angle at the matter: 90% off will be HALF the price you see now... 😈hehehe

will see if i can grabe a steam wallet code and get it , its worth it

Only issue with this will be some achievements that are for horizon festival if someone want these achievements the last time to get them its now from today till 22 August. After 22 August we wont be able anymore to get these 5 achievements that comes with horizon festival.
Comment has been collapsed.
They didn't state anything regarding other multiplayer functionalities yet, but it's possible that they might shutdown online services at some point later on. FH3 still has online servers, but it was broken on PC for a while and seems to be working now only with invitation (when I played it myself, it was broken, haven't tried yet again).
Comment has been collapsed.
The other online achievements they will unlock just fine through playing the game. Only the festival will terminate complete and this one is the last till August 22. So we have 2 months to earn these 5 achievements. After that we wii be able to get 173 out of 178 achievements in steam. I will try to get these till 22 August buy they need time and patience.

Really? Well, you can't buy them separately so big bummer :/
Additionally: Odd, I have the LEGO Champions DLC but not the Hot Wheels or Treasure Map DLC. Super weird.
Comment has been collapsed.
I see they remove the option to buy these DLCS separately. I think they gave the option to buy them before some months. So yes a big bummer. I have the ultimate 1 year now and want to buy these now especially the hot wheels pack.
Comment has been collapsed.
The Treasure Map doesn't seem to be a big deal, but the Hot Wheels DLC seems to be a big big bummer. Very sad.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes hot wheel cars are amazing. I waited for a discount and i dont know why they remove them to buy separately. And ultimate comes with 51 DLCS but not these 2. Thats life.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes they need to be bought separately they dont come with the ultimate edition.
Comment has been collapsed.
Also these 3 free dlcs were removed too:
Forza Horizon 4: Mitsubishi Car Pack
Forza Horizon 4: 1967 Sunbeam Tiger
Forza Horizon 4: 1979 Talbot Sunbeam Lotus
And now they're no longer available neither in the store nor through Steamdb.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm holding off for the longest time. I guess it's high time to buy the damn game now. Ultimate Edition in my region is less than 10 USD, the lowest it has been I think.
Comment has been collapsed.
2 addons with 5-10 hours each
a lot of cars
https://steamdb.info/sub/535034/apps/
Unless you find Lego childish and don't like an island with more dirt/uneven terrain, I'd recommend to get Ultimate. If you want to be sure, check YT videos about addons.
Comment has been collapsed.
A couple people higher up in the thread recommended getting Ultimate.

By Xbox Live they mean an Xbox social account, not the subscription you need to play online on consoles.
Q: Do I need an Xbox Live account to play? A: Yes! You'll be asked to sign into Xbox Live the first time you install and launch Forza Horizon 4 from the Steam client.
Source: Forza FAQ. I suppose you'll get an Xbox login screen on startup, similar to the one Halo Infinite has. That's what I understand from that line.
I however do not have the game, wait for confirmation from someone who has the game if it's really an important point for you.
Comment has been collapsed.
Man, still quite expensive for me, even after being discounted. :/
Comment has been collapsed.
Someone said that a bit higher, yeah... I hope so, too. It's still going to be a lil bit much, but becomes acceptable (which isn't the case now).
Good luck to us!
Comment has been collapsed.
From this date forward we will offer different discounts for Forza Horizon 4, like the one currently active on Steam (at the time of publishing); we will also have a sale in the Xbox Store on 7/14. Please keep an eye out on our socials and different platforms to take advantage of future offers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ultimate is definitely worth it, you get the LEGO and Storm Island content and no they won't release it for free.
Comment has been collapsed.
You guys think they'll extend the sale into the Summer sale?
Comment has been collapsed.
Jah.
I'm gonna wait just in case. If not, I'm sure it'll be on sale again, but if so, even better.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think that's right since big sales (like summer or even spring sale) are an exception for a majority of steam's sale policy. The 42h you're seeing is also the hour that summer sale starts, which is common for more or less every sale that's on right now, they either choose the start date of the big sale (and refreshes it to the same price until the end of the big sale) or they extend it out to the end of summer sale. There may be a steam rule where they aren't allowed to have a discount for more than 2 weeks or something so that's why they end it then, and then the exception kicks in and they're allowed to do whatever during the summer sale.
But on a common sense standpoint, do you think that every game (indie or AAA) that's on discount right now won't be on sale during summer sale? The only game on my wishlist that's on sale that doesn't have a sale that ends in ~42 hours or less is Kingdom Hearts, which may be exempt due to squeanix and launch discount rules.
Comment has been collapsed.
The official policy:
"Discounts cannot be run within 30 days of your prior discount, with the exception of Steam-wide seasonal events (Summer, Autumn, Winter and Springs sales)."
https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/discounts#7
So yeah they'll likely repeat the same sale or extend it. There's a small chance it'll be discounted higher or lower than the current sale, but it'll probably stay at 80% off.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll wait for a better discount. If there isn't any, so be it.
Comment has been collapsed.
I can't wait for a better discount. Just bought the ultimate version for $5. Been in my wishlist forever.
Comment has been collapsed.
Turns out I already owned the Ultimate Edition on Live (and surprisingly, also No Man's Sky lol). I guess I'll play it soon. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
With the amount i have on steam i can only buy the Standard Edition. Should i wait and buy the Deluxe Edition or Ultimate Edition? I really want this game. Thanks for let us know that they are going to retire the game for store. Hope they make a 90% discount before they retire the game.
Comment has been collapsed.
After some browsing on slickdeals and the like, I wasn't able to see a 90% off for Forza Horizon 3 (didn't look at the previous delisted Forza game, which I believe is Forza 6 before Horizon 3?), the lowest it went was ~$8 USD (about 86% off) I believe but that's on gray market. The lowest it went officially was ~$10 USD (83% off) from Microsoft themselves 1 month before the game got delisted. It may get lower when it gets closed to delisted date but I don't know if 90% will happen.
Comment has been collapsed.
The missing dlcs are not that great and do not affect achievements:
1) Hot Wheels Legend Car Pack - 6 Cars
2) Forza Horizon 4: Mitsubishi Car Pack - 7 Cars (Re-added)
3) Forza Horizon 4: 1967 Sunbeam Tiger - 1 Car (Re-added)
4) Forza Horizon 4: 1979 Talbot Sunbeam Lotus - 1 Car (Re-added)
5) Treasure Map
Forza Horizon 4 has 716 cars total (https://gamezo.gg/how-many-cars-are-in-forza-horizon-4/).
You will be missing 15 which is a small number and only 1 or 2 are high end cars.
UPDATE: Mitsubishi Car Pack and both Sunbeams have been added back to Steam. So 6 cars missing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you for this information. Still a big bummer about the Hot Wheels Legend Car Pack but hey, what can you do.
Comment has been collapsed.
the mitsubishi car pack is still available btw, annd according to reviews on the store, the sunbeam tiger and sunbeam lotus are part of the ultimate edition. so it's just the hotwheels pack that's missing.

Sucks for the treasure map to be unobtainable now
