Watch Turn 10 ignore this poll or max delete it
Such a hilariously one sided poll
I donât see them changing the drip-feed structure, gotta keep the GP engagement numbers up⌠At least it isnât worse than the weekly rotations in FH 4 and 5. I donât care how much personality those games have over MS, having one week to complete a bunch of events is so much worse. Talk about a game making you a slave.
As much as I loathe the FOMO of the recent Horizon games (and ask anyone here who knows me - I hate it in ways that the forumâs TOS prevents me from accurately describing), said FOMO is not particularly difficult to accomplish in a reasonably short period of time. It hasnât been that way since Horizon 4âs disastrous first month of using it. Itâs tedious and stupidâŚbut itâs not difficult.
Motorsportâs FOMO is just dumb, especially if you maximize your credit intake by running every session to the end and not skipping anything. Some Horizon playlists can take just a couple of hours to complete either fully or satisfactorily; it may take you that long or longer just to complete one championship in Motorsport, and you have to do that 4-8 times every update. Two hours (plus) of thoroughly unengaging hot-lapping against AI that is either laughably inept or outright cheating depending on the track youâre at. Thereâs no comparing the two, really.
They will read it, they do but say they donât and then say that they are listening to the community then continue doing whatever suits them
I see someone accidentally clicked the wrong button⌠or Chris voted!
I timed the last one and it took 32 minutes without practice to complete so that will be the average 2-2.5 hours a month. Thatâs not hard to achieve even with kids and a full time job. Easiest way to get it done is get the kids to do it and then go off and do something more productive⌠and entertaining.
Horizonâs playlist cars also have some leeway in how to obtain them - players donât need to complete the entire playlist to acquire those cars, and can instead pick-&-choose which events to do & which to skip (I almost never complete an entire playlist)⌠There is no similar freedom/choice in FM.
Horizonâs playlists also have multiple rewards to unlock, and multiple types of rewards to unlock (cars, wheelspins, horns, character cosmetics, songs, etc.)⌠FM playlists have one car.
And, of course, many/most of Horizonâs playlist cars can often be obtained later in the Auction House if you missed the playlist window⌠There is no Auction House in FM.
So yeah, like you said, there really is no comparing the two.
3% yes? @Clutch2009 that really wasnât you was it?
I voted no because i disliked FOMO.
I lack the sociopathy necessary to do that kind of trolling.
I do wonder who voted yes, though.
FH5 gives you the option to get the cars you missed later. That makes it â% better in that regard.
Not to mention Horizon does some cool stuff with the playlist too, like including player-made EventLab creations and the evolving world stuff
In FM23, itâs just⌠You know precisely what you will be doing this week, this month, next month, the month after, a year from now: 32 short/medium length races with a couple different cars. And it will feel mostly the same. Every. Time.
Wouldâve been fun if they let us do online career mode, but unfortunately theyâre still building it from the ground up
I think theyâre still pretty much on the ground. The âUPâ part hasnât actually started yet.
It seems one or two ppl like the FOMO lol.
It helps if there isnât just an upvote button, this way you can see there are ppl that swim completely against the stream.
Im betting on @FreshBarley4670
I still canât understand why they put FOMO into the game. Itâs not like in FH5 where after a while the whole map would be full of icons, no it would only add new championships to the menus. It wouldnât mess up a map or something.
In a game that barely has any content you shouldnât remove any content, no you should only ADD additional content.
100% I was actually shocked to see events disappearing shortly after release. I looked all over the menu and concluded that they had actually REMOVED stuff. To this day I cannot understand why they would not simply leave the events for us to replay.
I actually accidentally voted no for the second and it wouldnât let me change it, luckily I refreshed the page and then was able to
They needed to look like everything was all new built fromâŚ, ah nah bucket, could have just continued Forzathon
