Better announcements for Forzathon

First off, I take full blame in missing as many as I have, but something in my head makes me get on FH3 the day after a Forzathon ends. Not in the waning hours of the night before, always the next day. I’m not demanding it, but as a suggestion. Make announcements on social media. It seriously can’t be that hard. You already have all of the text and pictures at the ready, have someone spend like 5 minutes and make a post on all of your social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pintrest, MySpace (lol), Tumblr, whatever you guys use).

It’s good to see the S14-thon was brought back once, hoping for the Halo one to come back so I can get the theme horns and now I missed out on the Gurkha too.

You can find a list of upcoming Forzathon events in the last Week-In-Review post of every month. Here is their December announcement:

I know that’s there, and I actually had it bookmarked, but I obviously didn’t check my bookmarks. A lot of people are forgetful, some can’t help it, which is why I made the SUGGESTION that they expand where they advertise for it, as to not have to rely on an article that usually gets buried relatively quickly. That and most people frequent social media over dedicated video game sites, so there’s a very high chance they’ll see it elsewhere.

I don’t see how they can expand when they show it on here, twitter and facebook lol.

it comes up within the game when you start playing it, don’t know how it isn’t promoted enough
I get a big message across the screen as well as a voice announcement, it also has a permanent tile in the social section

I’ve never seen a Forzathon announcement on Facebook, only the “week in reviews, or months, or whatever”, they don’t announce it separately. I have also never seen the announcements on twitter, but apparently they do post them there. Only once, and within a flood of other crap, so it’s easy to miss.

I’m referring to OFF the game. If you get on FH3 daily, you’re not gonna miss it, obviously not what I’m talking about.

Dont know how they could possibly announce it anywhere else more than what they do already

Anyone that plays regularly should know about them already
They have been on pretty much every weekend since October with the occasional midweek one thrown in

It’s not that hard to know when Forzathons take place though, they’re like, every Friday through the weekend.
