No Auction House in FH6

I hope Auction House will NO longer be a thing in Forza Horizon 6! Hopefully there will be other way to get rare cars instead.

If they remove the auction house, they’ll be in the same troublesome position that Motorsport ‘23 was in. You’re going to tick a lot of people off if you don’t provide another way to acquire time gated cars.

Not saying they don’t have a solution but they would be in danger of losing a lot of players quickly over a short period of time, like Motorsport.

I’m on the community mgmt side, not the game-programming or designing side–my personal bias as a player is that I am not a fan of the current AH myself, but my interaction with this post should not be interpreted as an official statement about the future of this feature in FH6.
TLDR I have no idea at this point in time what the AH will look like in FH6. Apologies for the confusion. :stuck_out_tongue:

If the devs would actually make something about to prevent snipers/bots, maybe would it be something then! Would be nice if they would actually provide another way to acquire/get cars, especially rare/hard-to-find cars.

Could not agree more with the sniper/bot issue. Nothing wrong with manual sniping as it’s a part of the auction house strategy…..but I know what you mean.

All good, it’s a useful reminder to me that I should be careful about what I put my likes on here so as to not cause needless speculation :grin:

It is very frustrating in FH5 in my perspective. If the devs will do something to change that in FH6, that every players would have the opportunity to get rare/hard-to-find cars through other way, that would be really great! I’m sorry if what I said doesn’t make much sense, that’s because I’m not an native English speaker.

Removing a community feature seems like a really bad idea. I like having multiples of some cars, often ends up being a rare/hard-to-get item.
Better idea - Remove “Buy It Now”, go old-school highest bidder style auction.

Definitely need it if there are going to be time and festival points restricted cars again. I mean it would be amazing if there were not, but I feel like there is no going back to the good times in that regard.

It would be really nice if they would create the occasional auction for cars you might have missed, like not a player created auction but a dev or server one. FH5 made it ridiculous with the number of cars you’d miss out on over time, and how hard it was to find them on AH later, and even then they would always be 20M, and I just couldn’t be bothered doing that many Goliath laps.

they left it out of FM23, along with a lot of other things

Yeah auction house definitely requires a player base to make it work lol.

Watch Youtube IGN but Buy Used Car Replace Auction House?

I hope it returns,maybe make a few changes to it but keep it all the same.Its good for buying a car that you missed in a playlist for whatever reason.Just my opinion.:+1:

That’s horrible and lots of players don’t like it at all.

Whats horrible? I dont follow.

The way it is, lots of snipers/bots. I know that every cars are in the Backstage, but before was super annoying, especially when you were trying to find and get a rare car. It shouldn’t have existed from the very beginning. That’s how I feel about it. I hope in FH6 will be totally different.

Yeah the snipers and bots really spoil the auction house for me.Maybe they can tweak it a little in some way,stop the bots somehow,drop the max buyout price,i dont know.

I cant see them removing a feature thats been in previous FH games but they did with Forza23,look how that turned out.:+1:

I have no idea how it turned out since I never played Motorsport 23. Still, it would be great if they will find a better solution. Like if they will replace it with a better car acquisition mechanic, I think that would be really great.
