Already had the Subaru fe, was it a league or forzathon car? Already had the jag as well. Anyone can buy the Indy car. The good night suit was new to me, it’s also legendary.
Do the minutes stack from one stream to the other?
I really, really want to put my hands on that Jag.
I’m not sure about it but I think this Penske Indycar has a unique livery, doesn’t it? It mentioned “Sonoma race” in the description. Which version is featured on the car you can buy in the game?
While I always appreciate free stuff, this is just an extension of the locked cars and time-limited online events problem except that now you have to tune in during a very limited time slot to get your freebies and promote something you might not even care about with the retweeting quest (I personally don’t really care at all about Forza RC). Seems like an attempt to boost the viewer numbers more than anything else.
Anyways, I’ll be sitting this one out. If I can get the cars later great, but even if not I don’t like supporting these types of events.
I agree 100%. It’s nice to see I am not alone in this. The current focus on RC and all of its features are resources and time taken away from fixes the game needs implemented now.
What? Focus on ForzaRC is trickling down to customers, lol. Forza Motorsport is turning into a pro affair and Turn 10 is shaping the game accordingly.
It’s like in old times, really. Audi develops LEDs for Le Mans and they’re implemented in their road cars a few years later.
“It seems like damage control” Well now you’re talking just like the skeptics at a certain other forum. That’s the exact phrase they used… Now everything they do to satisfy our complaints is “damage control”? Not really. They’re a business, God forbid they want money from us, lol.
I am of the thought that the focus on RC is the only reason we are going to be getting new track limits and a penalty system in the near future. The last Forza game to have any sort of penalty system was FM2 from 11 years ago. The community has been complaining about poor track limits, corner cutters and rammers for the last 5 games and 11 years and T10 has been completely silent about it. They start to focus on Forza RC and esports and we get new track limits and a penalty system announced within 2 months. It could just be a coincidence but I don’t think so.
In general I am not a fan of time limited content, but this is set up much better than previous events have been. They have two streams which last 2-3 hours and are set 6 hours apart, and with the exception of the driver gear all of the rewards have been previously available. The Saturday stream they did for the opening event did have an exclusive car if I remember correctly but it was on a Saturday where a majority of people have some sort of free time.
It is a good thing they are working on a penalty system, and if RC and a focus on esports did it then its a good thing. But all this track cutting and bad online racing didn’t just start happening in forza 7, like you said its been years and several games back. I cant back it up with numbers but it seems like damage control. Im guessing over losing players, as it seems like this would be the only thing to make it happen at 6 months or so after release of the 7th game in a series. But it is happening and that’s good.
But it does not change the fact that there are lots of other issues. There is probably a huge growing list of things but I thought at the start that buying the game, and playing it would be enough for me to get the experience and its content. But, that is not the case, as I now need to invest more of my time in stream events and unfortunately im not interested in watching other people play or talk about playing something that I could play myself. I don’t have all kinds of free time, with a family and work, I want to play when I have time. If they are going to lock cars behind this stuff make it the minivans and the SUV crap that don’t belong in this game anyway. And the driver gear is pointless from the start as it adds nothing but a guy smacking his helmet in the load screens.
