In-game economy is unbalanced

I know some of you are very much into this and can explain this much better. Completing races, even if you grind away on the Ovals in free play doesn’t give you enough credits to add more cars into the garage. At a certain level, even Turn 10 realized this and that is why the higher end cars are priced between 200k to 400k, instead of millions like in all the previous Forza Motorsport and all the Horizon games.

By design, you are forced to only select certain cars and “be proud of them” instead of being a mega-collector.

Should be about 86m to get all the cars to purchase.
Id say thats about 200hrs of racing.
I think thats a good bit less than a lot of previous games absent the random rewards which skewed the rate.

There is no in-game economy.

Assuming you’re leveling each car to 50 and not spending all your credits on the highest value cars then technically you should never run out of credits.

In game economy has been screwed up since FM1 and GT1. I don’t think any NFS game (at least none I’ve ever played) had a balanced in game economy. So, just play, it’s all they’re going to give us.

Someone on Reddit did a 6 hour endurance race at Le Mans.

155,500 credits for 6 hours of racing. Does this look balanced to you now?

I know there are claims on Reddit that there was a hidden credit cap added in patch 1.0 to limit how many credits afk farmers could get. Not sure if it’s true but even if it were it’s not a big deal at the moment given the existence of the silly leveling system.

Can confirm 200,xxx for an 8hour race lol.

If thats true then jokes on Turd10 cause alot already have farmed and bought all the cars anyway before their wanna be patches was released. Plus it doesn’t matter anyway since all the cars are dirt cheap.

What’s really sad is T10 (or PGG in Horizon) will work so fast to fix a credits loop hole which is actually pointless to the overall gameplay. But they will let bugs/glitches which hamper overall gameplay exist uncorrected and unacknowledged for the lifespan of the game.

When you get the career mode progression fail bug, all your cars will be level 50.

The FM4 exploit is here. New code they say.

Take a 4wd drive out that you can change final drive on.
Pick a track with a long straight.
Rewind as many times as you can.
Tune final drive to maximum speed.
Hit resume and earn 2 million credits for wheelspin till it timeouts.

Soo angry at the bs advertising right now.
This is a worse game than the original FM on original XBox.

Turn 10? SHAME!!!
