For a whole month the 40 points reward is backstage passes, and the 300 points reward is a car I already have… that’s not how you do “endgame” for people who play FH5 (almost) from the beginning.

Were are the limited edition cars like the Oreo Pagani, Ford GT etc? 15 mins and logged of for a week :sweat_smile:

Those are DLC

Wasn’t every car available in FH4?

all but one are available now; the, oh, whatsitcalled . . . Quartz Regalia - that’s available but it was the only way to unlock the Quartz Regalia Somethingorotherversion and that was removed, I think due to disagreements with Sony

regardless of that it’s about licensing, they could put them in but it depends on the Oreo and OPI people (possibly); I presume they could put the Ford Coupe FE in as I assume they own the IP for that

oh, and the McLaren P1 Owen’s edition but that was never available to anyone

Not the cleanest run on Jungle Descent but good enough.

No. The Car Pass cars, Hot Wheels cars, etc are not. We’re talking DLC, not hard to find cars.

Appreciate the support

Forgot to mention in my other post, absolutely no AI traffic in the Trial…

At this point I’m left to assume it’s by design for the street Trials not to have traffic because it might make it more challenging for the drivatars and players…

wasn’t there a note about fixing that in this update?

Exocet OR FE is missing from the list of eligible cars - thought this sort of thing had stopped

Yeah, so no traffic in the trial but there was traffic in the Subaru SC in coop. It’s difficult to understand what’s intended vs not.

Edit: after a couple of fixes, like you’re saying I guess we should expect it’s as they decided to make it.

In Las Afueras (Subaru SC running it Coop) shortly after the start there was one of the npc trucks that the lead drivatar hit and turned sideways. I was skirting the side and scraped by. It spun though to block the entire road collecting the other 11 cars. Funniest thing I’ve seen in game for a bit and kinda feel left out by missing it.
