Hey guys i am not being funny here but they announced that there was fozathon events throughout april when they released the porche pack, they didnt just spring this out of the blue, i am pretty sure that there will other chances of gaining the 918 without spending fortunes and also i am pretty sure that once they have released a certain car through forzathon for free that they will not then release it as a paid dlc. please check forzathon releases carefully as they have often done a one day forzathon, i have lost out out on a few brilliant cars due to this and am as gutted as you but somehow thats life, in future reference but do not quote on this but generally one day forzathons happen on a tuesday. hope this clarifies a few things for the future.
Release expsanion 2 already, i am dying to find out what they have planned.
I have seen 918’s in the auction house for 1.3 million but you need luck to grab one. The next lowest I have seen was 3 million. I grabbed one for 3 million and two for 5 million.
It is not difficult to earn credits in Horizon 3 but it will require some time invested. If you like driving and race on your favorite circuits, the credits come quick. Use the perks and blueprint longer races.
I worked all day too and this has cost me before, but the 918 took me about five minutes to win. Took my trusty Renegade (one of my fav cars in the game, bar none) to the beach race in Surfer’s Paradise, did one jump (of about 2000 in this particular race), missed, passed an opponent mid-air on the second jump, cheevo popped, exited the race, job done.
The day’s other three Forzathon goals looked much tougher. Wouldn’t know for sure because I hadn’t the time to try.
If they had made the 918 part of the DLC, some people would complain about being made to pay for it. By making it a Forzathon reward, they’ve given everyone a chance to win it, even if they didn’t buy the DLC, so now people complain about it NOT being in the DLC. I guess you can’t win unless you give everything away for free until you go out of business.
Agreed, it would have been aweful if it was again part of the payed DLC since we already payed for it in it’s current gen console form in FH2 and FM6.
However, since it’s the fastest Porsche in the game it’s a bit of bad design to put the 918 on a one day only event. Yeah yeah I get it that on the 18th they want to put the 918 as a 1-day reward but it’s also just silly. It would have been better if a less popular / less powerful Porsche (like the 959 for example) was the 1-day Forzathon reward.
Let’'s just hope for the guys that missed it that it will appear soon again. But there are still quite a lot of Forzathon unicorns that only appeared once (Ferrari 599XX, Lola T70, Merc SEL, … etc).
I wonder once this game goes dark (post FM7 probably) what the team has in store for the Forzathon unicorns. IMO they should just add them (along with ALL other non-payed DLC cars) to the wheelspins. Then future players who buy this game on bargain or sale can still get those cars as well.
Yeah, I think they made a very conscious effort to appease both sides…but none the less they still complain. Personally I wanted the the 911R and the 918, got the 918 in the forzathon and since the 911R is M.I.A I don’t feel like I need/want to buy the porsche pack. Im impressed by how t10 handled this Porsche situation.
Since, i´m one of the lucky ones not getting the 918 (because i have nothing to do in my life) and now i only can get from AH from 10M, that i dont have and i pay for the DLC?!! Thats OK, just say to Turn 10 to keep with the next DLC´s, i keep with the money… Since you give the bests cars for free, i´m going to focus on that.
I like the idea of adding the Forzathon unicorn cars to the wheelspins after a certain period of time. I wouldn’t see this happening until mid to late next year. I would change the idea slightly. I would change the spin panel to just say Limited Edition Car or something similar. After the spin landing on this panel, the user would then be presented with a list of cars to select from. These would be the limited cars that were of limited release.
We were informed that this Forzathon was happening well in advance, not at the last minute. It’s your own fault for not keeping up with the news of this game.
Not correct a lot of gamers check the xbox game hub for upcoming events it was not posted last months I still pined to top of pagethem forgot to post it on the xbox hub so no many gamers were not informed not all players use the hub or this forum but rely on the game hub in xbox
I am saddened that they did not add the RUF Yellowbird… The 918’s handling is exceptional, a bit unrealistic in the wet but they managed to capture the essence of the stability over speed.
I missed out due to time zones. I was playing on the 18th but no forzathon, then I remembered I am in Australia, not America and I have to wait for the USA to catch up. When I went to play the next day again no forzathon. I checked the auction house and 918 were being sold for millions.
Hopefully we my have another chance to win one. But I wont hold my breath waiting.
