No not at all it seems very fair to reward these who pay more for VIP treatment, like a lot of us have done if you want then Buy the car Pack and VIP like I did and I think it is about time 1st event in 12 months for VIP and Car Pass holder and here come the but I want to but I no wana to pay brigade
No you had a choice to buy the Ultimate Edition or normal edition, I see it as a reward for buying the ultimate Edition which I did and works out cheaper in the end. They should do it more often
Not so much unfair as just really really weak for people to be able to make the game easier by paying more. It’s a less extreme variant of being able to pay e.g. $1k to just have everything, all the cars, achievements, driver gear etc, and then regarding yourself as having completed the game because you paid that money to have your account put into the same state as someone who has actually completed it. In my eyes, as soon as you buy anything extra, you haven’t truly completed the game. E.g. I bought the Porsche Expansion for FH2 before the game went end of life, and it has made it so much easier to reach 1000 gamerscore, it’s the first Forza game where I’ve reached 1000 gamerscore, and I basically feel like I cheated my way to it.
but having 1000 Gamerscore doesn’t mean you have fully completed it, far from it
it has a total of 2000 Gamerscore if you actually want to fully complete the game achievement wise so I’m really not sure what you are on about
I’m sorry, but your entire statement is [Mod Edit - Abbreviated profanity, profanity and profanity that is disguised but still alludes to the words are not permitted - D]. Additional content in no way makes the game “easier”. It simply offers more content and opportunities. DLC’s such as the Porsche pack usually come with additional achievements. Since the total possible gamerscore for FH2 is 2000, if that is your standard you still have only completed half the game.
Not really. Maybe if all Forzathon challenges required a VIP pass and other extras it’d be unfair. As it is, however, it’s just a nice bit of added value for the fans who went the extra dollar… er, spent the extra mile…
One thing to bear in mind - if it wasn’t for people paying full price on the games when they come out, and paying for the DLC, then the overall price for the product would be higher (if it still existed at all). To answer the original question, no, I don’t think it’s unfair that people who pay for extra content get extra content.
It does make it easier. If you buy a car pass you get extra cars, meaning you’ll reach the car ownership achievements sooner. If you have VIP you get extra credits, causing you to progress faster. You only need 1000 gamerscore to max out the reward system score for the game, so the extra DLC achievements make it easier to do this, and in turn the extra reward credits give faster progression in the game. It all makes the games easier.
As a computer game, obviously not as a driving simulator, the best driving game I’ve ever played is Mario Kart DS. Comes on a cartridge and completing it means the same thing for everyone who plays it, and isn’t time limited, someone could take my DS and game cartridge and play the game from start to finish and have the same experience as someone who played it when it first came out. To complete it required skill rather than spending money or merely spending time grinding. Indeed the 1-3 star system for the FH3 PR stunts is much the same thing.
Easier to get achievements maybe but that’s not the goal of the game isn’t it?
The game remain the same, maybe easiest to get more cars but still not the goal of the game, to me easier means you buy dlcs and instead of normal difficulty with drivatars you canraise to pro or to unbeatable but I am afraid for you there is no dlc that can make the game easier…
Unless it makes your car completely OP or increases your driving skill, then paid DLC does not make the game easier. Your Mario Kart analogy makes no sense, game experience changing due to DLC does not mean it’s easier, it just means that whoever has the DLC has a different experience with the game, nothing more. Sure they might have the Bugatti Chiron and could dominate the Hypercar division, but if they can’t drive that Chiron, then the game isn’t easier it’s just different from someone who knows how to drive the car without losing control at every corner.
What am I doing wrong? I enter/join a drift event, get the required score in one lap, per the specified requirements in Forzathon, but never get credit for said event. I seem to get the credit for the single player events, but not the multiplayer events. Do I need to stay in the race longer, do multiple laps ( I have already done this)? I figure it is something that I’m doing maybe? Any advice (Xbox One X). Thanks!
Having the same problem on x1. All requirements met, multiple different attempts at different types of drift races. Even did 10 laps in the hoonigan after getting the required 7,500 in one lap. Still no prize…
