Just reinstalling FH4. Better get a bit of practice in if I’m not going to be left in the dust of you boy (and girl) racers!!
(I should really be practicing my pixel golf looking at last weeks scores but hey, Fore Forza).

Don't worry about aligning with my times as they can be all over place. Also I believe that you have to play the first 40-60 minutes in single player before you can unlock proper multiplayer. If it unlocks at midnight Thursday I'll soon have put that time in!! I've just realised that we get access to it at 11pm on Thursday 4th because it seems to be based on midnight Sydney time for the Australian release. Unfortunately I'll be in bed asleep by then! |

I got premium but not allowed to pre load being on Steam so will be spending my 1'st day of early access downloading and installing. For sake of argument when you all say evening, that's "over there" evening right? I'm on Eastern time so a few hours behind you all.
Steam version changed, its able to preload as of today Tim!
I'm starting mine as I head off for bed. Maybe it will be done by Friday. haha!

Cool. Didn't expect that. Downloading now. Says it will be done in 5 hours. Not doing too bad after just a couple minutes I've already got 1.2 gigs in. |

FYI, I just had a 22GB update on FH5 through the Microsoft store.
The current version I have is 3.405.2.0 I'm not sure if this is a new update today or one that was released in the last couple of days and I missed it.

I have my bandwidth back and can now surf the web without the frustration of loading pages and things hanging. <--which translates to. I have finished my pre load of PGA 2K22 Forza Horizon 5.

So who is flying to New Zealand tonight? Xbox and MS Store (not sure if it works on Steam) you change your region to New Zealand and can unlock the game at midnight tonight. Will be trying it in the morning (windows time and date settings, change region), but havn't seen any talk about it working in Steam Don't know how you do it on the xbox. Apparently same idea though just change your region.  Gears of War 5 release stats apparently |

I’ll be working at 11am so no advantage really as it’s already pre-downloaded. I’ll probably just wait up until midnight UK time tomorrow. Got a bit of Brew Crew Untapped to play this evening as I watch my name creep towards the TGCT cut line on two tours!! |

But not overly bothered if I have to wait until the proper release time. Would be nice to be racing tomorrow as I am in major boredom mode right now. I got decapitated by the cut line in cca. Missed the cut by 2 strokes and sitting in 103'rd place. lol |
