I have been redeeming rewards for Forza 4 and Forza Horizon, yet I have been getting rewards for Forza 5 even though I don’t even have the game, nor an Xbox One. Being a Tier 5 player, based on the redeemed awards I would get a total of 11 million credits for Forza 5, but considering I don’t even have the game nor the console, are the rewards still eligible to be collected if I do get the game later, or will they disappear if I don’t claim them?
You will receive rewards for all 3. You have to claim the rewards in each game each month. If you do not claim them before they expire, you will not be able to retrieve them. The fact that you do not have FM5 or an XB1 doesn’t factor into it. Rewards are across all active titles… (FM4, FH1, FM5 and soon to be FH2)
I am claiming them each month, I was simply asking if the claimed rewards will still be waiting for me, whether I decide to get Forza 5 or not. I have been on the fence on getting an Xbox One for Forza 5, following the controversies of the Xbox One, and that Forza 5 is rather light in comparison to 4
they have to be redeemed in game within that month…it states so when you claim them , otherwise they do expire
I too want to know this,
as i’ve collected up to 8million for FM5,
but due to a delayed release in belgium (xbox one) i haven’t gotten a chance to get the game.
Release is planned on the 5th of september, and i will buy it on release.
Is there a dev i can contact to still be able to claim my rewards for forza 5??
it is so easy to earn money racing you don’t need to worry about getting the money from rewards even though it is a nice start
but they have to be redeemed in game within that month…it states so when you claim them , otherwise they do expire
I went 3-4 months after this game came out and collected all the rewards. I’m not sure what the time limit is but when the game came out, it was at least 3 months. So I started with $4.5M I think.
this isn’t hard to understand -
-
when you “redeem” the rewards on this website, a gift notification is sent out to the appropriate gamertag within the appropriate game.
-
you have one month to “collect” the reward by using the gift notification received within the game (ie: forza 4, horizon, forza 5).
-
after one month the gift notification is removed if unused.
so, the answer to your question is no. the only rewards you will receive in forza 5 will be those “redeemed” less than one month prior to the time you access forza 5 for the first time. any gift notifications you received prior to that will have been removed from the system. this works exactly the same way as gift cars, if you let the notification sit for a month without downloading the car, it’s gone.
The money is received in the game as a gift. All in-game gift messages have a 30 day life span. After 30 days they are gone for good.
Ok, I don’t mean to be a spanner in the works but I’ve experienced different.
When I got my Xbox One I went for a good few months without revisiting Forza Horizon. During that time I kept redeeming my Forza Rewards every month which was giving me a couple of hundred thousand on Horizon as well as the million or so for FM5.
When I eventually did return to Horizon every reward was stored up and waiting for me. I went back to a couple of million in game.
The only caveat I can think of is that I had started a new game in Horizon, and hadn’t yet progressed to the stage at which in-game gifts become available. Perhaps because of this the expiration deadline didn’t take effect and so my gifts were still ok. This might be the same for those yet to start on FM5.
or maybe you just got lucky as have a few others…but it does say to redeem in game within 30 days…so maybe its hit and miss
