I didn’t get FH5 until May 2022 so the first season I was able to complete was German Automotive. It would be great if Turn10 decided to rerun the Series starting from the first one. Then hopefully I could complete the Chinese New Year Lantern and Parade Race Accolades.

Man … those accolades … Ive had a yearly tradition of checking to see if those come back. I hope they are now doable if that season comes back, and if so, I hope that season comes back sooner than later.

@T10ManteoMax the in-game news item lists a few cars for the voting choice but it’s unclear why those listed are the ones that are listed when there are plenty of other cars. For example, Lancia Delta S4 has appeared just once, it was an Italian Automotive playlist reward but isn’t listed in the news item. The upshot of that is we don’t know if it is going to be there. Specifically in my case it’s the only car of interest out of all reward cars in either series so definitely affects my view on voting.

We got an in-game mail telling us the new playlist rewards, almost 2 days since the vote began. Well, I think maybe the best opition is that we can immediately know what the new rewards are thus we can make better choices.
For example, I didn’t expect that they bring back the Fiat Dino from Series 29 instead of putting the 124 Spider or Delta S4 from the same season. Also they swapped away the Audi RS6 from High Performance Series, a car that was launched in that series.

I voted Italian Automobile series mainly beacuse I want the Delta S4, 124 Spider and some Alfas. Now we only have Alfas. What a sad story.

dunno why I posted that, it’s pretty obvious that I’m not getting a second Lancia Delta S4 as I’ve shown that I’m interested in it

either the other series is going to win or more likely it’ll be the Italian one but that reward is not going to be there (that’s a more irritating result)

I’ve updated the voting post above to compare the original series rewards with the returning series rewards. Returning series will now offer a Backstage Pass for the 40-point weekly progress reward slot, and some original reward cars are now in the Autoshow.

Thank you Max

thanks T10MM

not aimed at you but ugh, not only did the players vote incorrectly when the Lancia Delta S4 was in the Backstage vote, it’s gone from this possible way of getting it, too

Note today we released a Hotfix for FH5 (version *.678.498.0) that prepares the game for the returning series.

Will we know which returning series won the vote at the end of season 3 or beginning of season 4?

I’m hoping we won’t have to wait until a Tuesday update to know.

I just wish we didn’t have to jump through silly time gates and player votes to get cars. Just allow players to go back and choose past playlists to play at any time and get the rewards on their schedule. Or better yet, add all the cars to the auto show.

I just wish the pre-release season would be available. I had pre-ordered the game, but my Internet was down that weekend which means there are a few clothing items I wish I could get but haven’t been made available since.

In case anyone’s interested, I’ve voted for the Creatives series therefore Wilds is going to win the vote.
