Fesitval Playlist events and rewards Nov. 17-24 (Autumn S14)”

I really need to find time for this Fes-IT-val to get that Morris Traveller.

1 million point drift zone PR stunt, I’ll pass on that thanks.

Shouldn’t be too bad as it’s the longest one in the game, an upgraded FD car should do the trick.

Don’t know every car that has pop-up headlights but I just so happened to be in the Supra 2.0 GT when I came on the game, Shiki has already had a tune up for it since Monday + Sepi has one that should be pretty decent.

Most amazing though is I didn’t see a ugrundy one, good for you Supra.

I guess they didn’t record regular season start dialog for the Mixtape DJ, since he announced the anniversary tour was going to Europe.

Trial done in two races, with the human team on the first six spots both times. Etiher I lucked out with team mates this time or the bots’ brakes were nailed to the floor.

Not possible for someone who isn’t good at drifting. I thought I’m decent at drifting but even 900k is too much for me.

One of the benefits of being those who turn the radio off, no bugs in that department :wink: I’m not one though.

But what about the season intro from the Donut Media guys ? Not sure that’s skippable and didn’t they say the Super Deluxe was available this week ? When that is next week.

The trial was easy my end too. I must have lapped one of the AI on the first race as the two I was right behind on the finish line were 10 and 11. Definitely (un)beatable.

Yeah, they mentioned the Super Deluxe. Not familiar enough with the cars added for this series, so since the 20 point prize is listed as Morris Traveller for both Autumn and Spring, I thought that might’ve been it. But now that I went into the Car Collection to see the full names, I see it’s the Ford Wagon next week.

So I guess the C2 Vette doesn’t have pop up headlights.

This is why we need actual lists for these things.

Why do you do it? This drift zone is just impossible. How many times am I supposed to fail and fall short like 40,000 points. Why do you put one thing that takes an inordinate amount of time to complete for what 3 points? Come on.

I used the Hoonigan Mustang v2 and I just downloaded the most popular S2 tune and got it in first try. The car drifts by itself, so give it a shot!

Player Engagment Metrics. They thank you for your participation.

Had 1 attempt at the drift zone, got around 780,000. Not gonna waste more time on it though for just 3 points.

Trial was ok, had 1 player who was determined to knock everyone off the road, meaning we lost race 2 because they knocked me into the trees, and we came up 50 points short. Fortunately won in 3 even with 2 players at the bottom of the leaderboard.

The donut smashables was easy. Thought I was gonna have to jump onto the power lines to get one of them, but there are way more than 10 on the Motorway so it seems kind of pointless being up there.

Back in FH4, I was always worried the S-Bends drift zone would be in the weekly playlist. Glad it never was (unless they did it after FH5 released, which was when I stopped doing the FH4 weeklies). Was scared a few times when a weekly icon was in that vicinity, but it was just the close by Derwent Valley Dash or Ambleside Loop Cross Country.

At best I would rate myself as decent at drifting too. Ended up with 1 030 000 on 1st run. Used AWD Funco F9 (903PI). One man’s ceiling is another man’s floor.
Was going to use stock F9, but to my surprise it was lower S1 car.
With any AWD FD or Hoonigan car it should be much easier.

But I agree with Not_Here_Too. It is all about P.E.M. If you don’t like drifting, don’t like to challenge yourself or don’t need to 100% playlist, then I would just skip it.

I guess he took the name “bumper2bumper” literally
