So the 300 SLR became available in the autoshow instead of being an exclusive playlist reward. The price tag of 143M credits may have shocked some people, but I have to say I kind of liked it. I played FH5 alot and it gets tidieous to grind to the playlist, remember all the cars you get from it (and from wheelspins after trails,…) and delete them because you are a few cars away from the 1k limit.
I get that the playlist is there to keep players active (maybe for stats, maybe for multiplayer) but if you played since launch you’re probably tired of it. I think it would be nice to have all newly added cars in the autoshow with high prices (like 100M - 200M CR) instead of making them exclusive.
This way newer players who aren’t tired yet (or can’t afford them yet) can get them from the playlist while long time players can just get it from the autoshow or also still get it from the playlist if they enjoy it. I would prefer to spend the time I have to play fh5 by doing rivals or creating liveries instead of grinding and managing my inventory.
Also you wouldn’t feel like you have to tune in every time a new car gets to the game. (yeah I feel like a have to get every car,…)
But what would you think about this:
expensive instead of exclusive?
hell yeah
heck no
actually I don’t care

Note: I might make a suggestion later and link it here if there is enough interest.
Neither.
For me it is either A) every car obtainable via autoshow in “reasonable” price or B) festival playlist exclusive and 2-4 weeks later added to autoshow in “reasonable” price.
PS. I’m not a collector/completionist. At first I was going to get SLR via playlist, but dropped that plan in last week(?). Currently I have 110points and no way to get 160. There is plenty of SLRs in auction house for 20M, but still not worth it.
At the launch of the game, there were quite a few ways to boost your wallet with the driving aids, the custom farm skill-points events, the Porsche Cayman GTS talent tree … And very generous wheelspins.
I consider that this largely unbalanced the economy of the game, with a large number of players acquiring millions, either by forcing a little or because the game itself was very permissive and generous.
Today, the game is more balanced but to the disadvantage of new players, for whom it is much more tedious to reach crazy amounts.
There is no way back, so in my opinion playing on finances doesn’t make sense anymore, for this opus.
I’m at 124m CR and the prices of cars are already meaningless - even this one, since on the AH they can only be listed for 20m. Anyone paying 143m for this thing in the AS isn’t trying.
…it’s funny, I actually feel like this game requires almost no effort to begin with… (primary reason I play it, because I can get up and walk away from it at any time for any amount of time, and never really have any issue getting back, and catching up.)
98% of the races outside the Trial, all you have to do is slap upgrades on your cars, you don’t even have to tune most the time… ask me how I know. H.E. Double Hockey-sticks, I’ll run the series races with stock cars just for the challenge of doing it. Some times I find it’s the easiest way to get over on the buggy AI too - especially on dirt. The AI is awful in stock cars.
And for added xp: I played FH4 for 1 year, 500 hours, and managed to get everything other than Owens car and the P.O. Camaro - 3 years after it was released… and I didn’t do anything but just play the game as it was. They give players multiple easy avenues to get the core of this game which is the the cars.
If this game was actually hard, no one that wanders in 3 years after launch would have everything the game offers of actual use and value. I’ve played those games, for many many years. Forza ain’t those.
what if they made playlist exclusive cars available in the auto show after the 2nd time it reappears as a reward? Ex: McLaren 765LT would become available in the auto show after it’s made available as a reward again during the next series.
The players who worked for the exclusive cars gets their exclusivity for a couple months, and newer players/players who missed their chance gets an opportunity later on to collect the cars without having to pray for the exclusive car to return or spam the AH hoping to snipe the car they want
Money in fh is like sand on a beach. Its too late now but what they should of done is make money something harder to get, so you had to be careful of what car and upgrades you needed to advance. I bet no1 even check the total price on an upgrade ever. Bec money in this game is at an constant overflow. But it was the same in fh4. I have over 100 superspins on both bec i have no reason what so ever to spin them.
My beach is made almost entirely of rocks and clams. There are still several cars in the Autoshow I can’t buy. And I doubt I could quite get them all even if I had 100 Super Wheelspins to use and I didn’t count the one they added for $143M.
I started a new acc 2 weeks ago just bec i was boored, i have all the cars i need to race, all houses and over 20mil i cash. Maybe you have to grind a bit if you want all the cars in the game, but money in this game is not even a factor if you want to race and upgrade cars. This game is made so even a child can race and get rich.
I don’t know how old and bored you are but I highly doubt people with a job, SO and other responsibilities could afford to put in the play time required to accomplish this in 2 weeks.
I’d say it’s quite a lot of hours work to get to a position where you have all houses, all cars you might want for racing and 20 million left, especially when the AH has been down for most of the past two weeks.
