Just out of curiosity, what are the thresholds and reward amounts for when others download and use designs and tunes you have shared?
i.e. Professional status = X downloads, Y uses and Z likes = how much a day?
I ask because one of my designs is apparently far more popular than I could’ve ever imagined (300+ downloads w/ 100 uses in the first 10 days), yet I’m only seeing 634 credits a day. Maybe it’s just me, but that reward seems awfully low.
The rewards are pretty low even with many uses. It’s nothing that will sustain you credit wise- your best bet is still to race and play.
It’s not really that I’m looking at it as a means to sustain, but more of just a bonus to look forward to. Nothing will change my desire to come up with new designs and share them, but if I had this success in Forza 4, I would’ve been sitting on at least an extra 300k instead of just an extra 6k by now. Except for requested one-offs, I never asked for more than 5k per copy. Usually I was fine with 1k per copy.
More about uses than your downloads. This is just from my experience, most if not all the time I get 50,000 from my design rewards which I believe to be the maximum.
Guess it might help if I focus on painting the more popular cars then.
