Guys and Gals, can we just take a moment to thank T10? This past month or so has been a surprise after surprise. First an awesome DLC, announcement after announcement for FH3, ForzaRC with Unicorns as prizes for easy racing, and then a photo and livery contest with your unicorn OF CHOICE as prizes. I’m really happy with them right now. Thanks for the ST Huracán!
I just got the week 3 Falcon for racing in the ForzaRC open league and a unicorn Lamborghini. Was the Lamborghini a gift for the elite rivals instead of the week 3 Escort?
I am in total agreement with Clutch63. Many, many thanks for the SIlva and Aston Martin! I never thought I would be able to acquire either of those. The RC competition was a blast as well. The Forza franchise continues to be the best.
Just got the V8 Aston in my mailbox, so so happy with that! Just waiting on the week 3 Falcon and Escort now. And only one more unicorn to go till I have the complete collection, the '66 Silvia. (Unless you count Dom’s Charger as a unicorn car).
Doms charger was a promo back before FM6 came out, You had to buy Furious 7 on the Xbox Video Marketplace to be able to get one. You cant get them anymore.
Aye, I know that. I just class it as a Unicorn because the other promo cars were just liveries, whereas Dom’s Charger is a complete car. I suppose the Chryslus Rocket would also fall under that too.
Cars like the Charger, Chryslus, and GT Le Mans are promos. They are different from unicorns because you receive them as dlc then “buy” them in-game. The unicorns are available only as gifts. The Silvia is a little bit odd because you could buy it in-game for a limited time but now is only available as a gift.
The wave of gift cars appears to be for participation or first cut of the livery and photo comps entries. I entered each with a request for the Vantage hoping to get at least one, and I received two this morning. I have not received week 3 gift cars yet (as-of 10:35 EDT, 01-Sep-2016).
I get that they’re for promo reasons, but seeing as they can only be gained in certain ways (often only one way), they fall under the unicorn bracket for me. Anyway, apologies for going off topic here!
I also received the 1977 Aston Martin V8 Vantage and I am pleased with how awesome the car looks. It may have took me 7 months and involved 3 attempts to win one that came up just short by an inch(guessing RWB TRITON’s time in the rivals event, beating his time in said event, and a photo contest where my photo came up just short), but I finally was awarded that unicorn this morning. It’s a rare unicorn in that only 300 some V8 Vantages were handed out for the rivals event back in February and that there were few winners of the previous pick your unicorn contests.
Yes giving away the unicorns was a great gift from t10. But imo it does not make up for the complete mess of the forzaRC. The Monza fiasco will stick in the heads of every serious racer on the game. I always get told at work you only get remembered for the mistakes you make and your only as good as your last job.
