Forza Hub app isnt working and hasnt been lately
Deleted
Donāt you find the Forza Hub app and system, specific to the entire ecosystem of the franchise, terribly lacking?
For those who didnāt know, since FM5 - FH2 (2014), the FORZA license has developed a rewards system as well as a full-fledged application allowing you to follow your evolution over the games and years.
Each title, except the first Forza motorsport 1 on original Xbox, was associated to your account and you could follow your progress through several items: cars owned, kilometers driven, races wonā¦ All of this was done through explicit diagrams that allowed you to follow your own evolution through all the Forza games.
This tracking - especially the loyalty of players within the franchise from 2007 to 2021 - allowed them to identify themselves in the large community that gathers the pro-Forza.
Each of these criteria, when accomplished (e.g.: driving 1000km in FH4), was worth a certain number of points, which could be considered as XP. The accumulation of these points is translated into different levels (from 1 to 15). You could compare yourself with your friends and observe their stats on each game or on the whole.
That was the Forza Hub.
Note about Rewards: this rewards system, linked to your progression through the tiers of your ForzaHub, created in 2014 too allowed for a monthly distribution of a sum of credits ā¦ on each of your Forza titles! In a way the reward for your loyalty with the franchise and your many efforts on the games for years. For example : I am level 10, I get 125.000 Cr. / title. I havenāt even started FM3 yet and I already have money waiting for me in the mailbox. What an absolutely brilliant idea, which makes you want to invest!
I discovered the franchise with Motorsport 4, which was a real joy to go through, as Iām passionate about car racing. Then, on a birthday I got Horizon 4 and enjoyed the open world driving in stunning graphics. Thatās when I discovered the Forza Hub and all its tricks. And it made me want to climb the ladder, to go through all the old titles I missed, with each time + starting credits thanks to the rewards. In short, a well-oiled system that makes the player want to invest in the Forza series, the feeling of belonging to a large community of players and car enthusiasts.
In 2020, the data tracking starts to fail on the ForzaHub side, I open tickets to the support during the year to explain myself but I am told that the problem will be solved, patience. Mumbo jumbo. In 2021, it is announced the end of 1. the forza Hub 2. the whole rewards system.
Iāve worked so hard to get this done, and itās gone in a fraction of a second. What a waste.
So why gentlemen, why?
Itās 2023 and loyalty doesnāt pay a penny anymore (check with your phone companiesā¦ new subscriber promo, new subscription promo). What counts are NEW subscriptions. The gamepass.
Forza Hub ended its service quite a while ago. Sadly the loyalty rewards associated with the Forza Hub as well have ended.
I recently started playing Forza again after Horizon 5 was a disaster at launch ( better now, but still simple things needed fixing from launch are still overlooked) so I signed into my Forza account again to find Forzamotorsportā¦net/rewards isnāt a link anymore. Instead it brings me to a āRe-Vampedā (destroyed) website. So I go to the reward section to find basically nothing. 3 games with minimal goals. No more tiers, no more points, and alot of pictures uploaded are deleted.
So I Google why my hard work is basically gone now to get thisā¦
āStarting with Forza Horizon 5, new Forza titles no longer use the Rewards Tier system , and we will be concluding the weekly tier-based credit redemptions via Forza Rewards in previous games from May 5, 2022.ā
Now theyāve made alot of mistakes that have been unanswered but I canāt find a straight answer of why they took a amazing thing to look forward too and strive for, and reduced it to basically an Xbox achievement showing you the percentage of players who also got it.
Can anyone help me out here?
EDIT: HAD TO ADD TO MORE DOTS TO THE URL CAUSE IT TRIED TO HYPERLINK THE CURRENT WEBSITES URL
Forza Hub closed its doors.
It seems that the Forza Hub PC desktop app is dead.
Maybe it can be brought back to life when Forza Motorsport 2023 will be relased? I would appreciate it.
Doubtful it would come back to be honest. The Forza website pretty well takes care of everything the forza hub could doā¦ Minus the legacy rewards and credit rewards
