So, basically using a car before its official release is a term of violation, according to Forza Horizon 5 guidelines. It looks like the devs are in no mood to tolerate anyone who violates these guidelines. According to Forza Horizon 5 guidelines, they use a three strikes system for bans/suspensions.

The first strike will lead to a seven-day suspension, the second strike will lead to a thirty-day suspension. Eventually, the third strike will cause permanent suspension. It’s recommended that fans must check the Forza Horizon 5 guidelines to get more information.

Fans who had planned to use some modifications/hacking tools in the game would have to be wary of the risk of a ban. The worst part about these bans/suspensions is the device ban. In the device bans, the devs literally ban the MAC address of the device. So, even creating a new account won’t be of any use as the MAC address of the device is blacklisted.

It looks like fans are not happy with the game’s current guidelines. One user that goes by the name of “u/Johnny4999” said, “I made a post about this and got eaten alive. Apparently we should all look forward to triple A games to come out unfinished at release date and be happy about that while they ban us for their mistakes.” In fact, many fans have expressed their concern across the comment section of the above Reddit post. And many fans are confused that how can someone even get access to a car which is yet to be released.
