Cheers to Turn 10 for listening to the fans.

Thank you. Not only for fixing the VIP earnings to be like it has been in previous titles but for also recognizing the disappointment we felt and sending us goodies as an apology.
To be honest, I was very disheartened when I discovered the 2x bonus was temporary. I wasn’t “demand a refund” unhappy but definitely “never going to preorder another Forza title” unhappy. I did not post my dissatisfaction because I did not think it would help. I believe there are many others who felt the same way. So I also thank those who spoke up and made a scene.

I appreciate the quick response and realization that VIP was a massive flop at release. Not only with misinformation, but the lack of what you get for the price too. I don’t need the cars or million credits, all that I really wanted was 2x credits/xp for each race, or some sort of weekly gift/reward system for those who have VIP.
Don’t want to sound like stuck up person, but with the large amount of posts about this, it was bound to draw attention, especially at release. Now, if this happened down the road, I highly doubt anything would be done. None the less, I’m happy to hear about the changes and a thanks from me!

I will add my regard for the response and addressing the issue head on. And knowing that they are listening to reasoned, well thought out posts indicating our sense of dissatisfaction and even more important disappointment does return some level of comfort with T10 again.
And I want to thank the other posters for providing the vast majority of posts in that manner that was passionate, reasoned, and constructive and illustrated our feelings and concerns over this matter.
Bravo to all!

Thanks…but isn’t the Maserati GT FE already a reward for completing all of the Breakout Elite Series?
Thank you for rectifying that. The only other thing i’d like to see now is the addition of class leader boards for each track.

Thank you for quickly rectifying this situation. Some of us always had faith in you and others were losing it. Good to know our faith wasn’t completely unfounded.

I really liked the sound of this letter, acknowledging that they made a mistake and that they are listening to our feedback, This shows that they are keen on open communication
However, until the Rivals mode is fixed (classes added), as well as the Hoppers fixed, I won’t even touch Forza 7 which is disappointing because it is the best looking and sounding car racing game ever made. As people will know, I am a big Forza fan and I don’t like bagging it but they need to consult the community before making such drastic changes.

Thank you for finally giving us, VIP members, the 2x base credit reward in the next patch.
I’ve also received the extra 3 VIP FE cars and the 1 mil credit bonus.
PS… the animated background screens at the end of a race (when you receive credits and XP) are not showing correctly on a lot of tracks (a black screen, like someone turned of the video projector).
Hope this will be fixed too.
Thanks.
Doesn’t help those of us for whom our UE DLC isn’t being recognised, therefore we’re not classed as VIP, and I’m not seeing the 1M credits or the three gifted cars.
At this rate, I’m wondering if I ever will…
fair play, Turn10. Much appreciated.
Hearing that they are taking steps to change VIP to more like it was in Forza 6 makes me feel much better, I was really regretting my purchase of FM7. I am still not sure about this game. Day/ night and weather is still just a canned effect on select tracks, the changes to the way you upgrade your car to a class seems annoying, though I admit I have not fully deived int it, I don’t like that some cars are locked, and that I no longer get credit boost for not using assist. I do LOVE that I can change the length of the race. I hate th 2-5 lap shoot outs in the older Forza, having longer races is great. Over all though it seems like the Forza team has lost there way and what Forza was about. Forza use to be a game I would buy with no questions or info on the game, I loved the series. Forza 5 started that doubt and Forza 7 kind of reinforced it once again. I will play the game and have fun, that I’m sure of but I’m just not sure of the future of this searies and if I want to continue to by the games.

I’m glad that we(the vip owners) caused enough fuzz so that they changed it back to the way how it was supposed to be.
But stop removing important features from this game like no drivatars in a private lobby, or decent multiplayer lobbies, or class rivals. In some ways, forza 2&4 were better because of the user hosted public lobbies, storefront and fully customizable multiplayer.
But most of all thanks for giving us the vip perk back.

Thank you, Alan
VIP sounds great so thanks for listening to the community.
The crashing still does occur after the update however nowhere near as much and I am sure will get ironed out with bug fixes.
Even if I do end up with double FE cars I can sell those at AH eventually and buy something I don’t have.
All good news 
Thank you!
