Probably not, These placeholder events never carried over from previous series when people forgot to install the update before the summer season started.
You have no proof that the new cars will start next month.
They have already identified the issue with the update and my guess is that we will get the new cars a week late, if even that.
What I’d imagine might happen is, if they manage to get the update before the week is out, it’ll just overwrite whatever’s currently up for the week.
If they don’t get the update fixed before the week is out, they’ll move whatever car(s) were supposed to be available this week into the later weeks of the series, or throw it up into the Forzathon shop or something like that.
Wanted to mention that the Forzathon shop has a timer of 21 hours left. This might mean the update is coming sooner than people think but who knows at this point.
It would be nice if the ranked adventure qualification would carry over. That’s still a massive cancer in regards to people cheating the wall impact system. I’ll live if I have to do that again but would rather not. The Mazda trial was one of the more fun ones I remember, so I did that as well but not much else.
Does it really matter? All you have to do is participate in one session to qualify. Team Adventure is usually quickest or play some Playground Games if you don’t agree with the anti-griefing system in races.
Why, thank you for your useful and informative post. I’ve only been playing since launch.
I’m fully aware that all you need to do is participate in one session to qualify…and to answer your question, it does matter. If you’ve bothered to pay attention, team adventure and playground game’s points systems aren’t exactly working right now. If one person leaves, no one gains points. In the end, it’s not a big deal but if you have any competitive nature while racing online, it kind of feels like a waste of time.
On top of that, FFAA is the only mode where I can rely on my own skills to rank up. Of course, cheap shot artists will always exploit anti-griefing systems.
OT: I do like a good Bugatti forzathon but hopefully we’ll see a Toyota update soon…haha. I’ve been keeping an eye out on the Xbox update page all day since I’ve been working remotely.
Summer is today, Autumn tomorrow, etc. until the series is fixed and put through. That would get rid of any bugs tied to starting a new series in the middle of one. And when the new one is ready slap a 24(if given that what we’re in right now is 23)on there and hope for the best.
It’ll be interesting to see where they go with everything else tied to the seasonal change and series change as a whole. TorbenTuesdays, series release days, season change, it’s all tied to a certain day, so what happens if that day is no longer relevant and changes due to this? Hm.
It’s all good tho. As much as I enjoy racing through the playlist this is a good break from the inevitable monotony. Also if the above circumstances happen; change is always good!
With this reused season, I could bring back already used cars and maybe finetune them (not much tho)
Trial, very easy win on all 3 events with 3:0 for team

D 500 Ford Anglia, tune - 497 883 517
or Morris Minor 1000, tune - 123 055 148
Weekly forzathon was nothing special, just Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, with S2 tune.
PR stunts were a bit harder, but not too much of a problem for offroad tuned Agera RS, for speed trap and danger sign, Lego Senna was used for speed zone.
Good luck
Edit
Wonder if we’ll get another set of championships, if they manage to sort proper Season 23.
In any case, take care every one and have fun
