Forza Horizon 5 players poke fun at strange Photo Mode glitch

It’s no surprise that one of Forza Horizon 5’s objectives asks players to take photos of its gorgeous map. However, for Redditor TheOneTrueBigMan, utilizing the game’s Photo Mode led to a bizarre glitch that prevented the completion of the ‘PhotoGenic’ objective.

The objective requires players to “photography a group of any four vehicles” in the game, though somehow it has registered minus six in this instance.

In need of assistance from their fellow racers, the Redditor asked: “How did I manage to do this and how do I fix it?”

Redditor crocodiluQ believes the issue is fixable by playing a “Street Race, easiest mode, hold the drivatars after you and wait till you see 2 traffic cars. Photo all of them and it will work.”

While a definite fix wasn’t able to be found, many Forza players took the opportunity to lightheadedly poke fun at the issue. One player, DrDyngbeng requested that they “give back those stolen photos, you thief.”

The glitch is “quite impressive” according to player FallGuysBoi, while another said: “Obviously you now need to take a photo with 10 cars in it, duh, basic algebra.”
