give it time - towards the end (so to speak) for the campaign mode, i.e., when you're out of (or nearly so) clothing to earn and have most of the cars already, the cash just piles up, with very little to spend it on

i got 200 super wheelspins due to some error and now whenever i get anything in a wheelspin now, it's just credits or a car i already own (so more credits)

i have 40 million credits and absolutely nothing to spend it on, except for buying limited time only cars for exorbitant prices in the auction house

I'll get it back but uh, that was not how I expected things to go.

If you're not too concerned about owning rare cars, a good way to earn money is to finish the weekly forzathon events and sell the reward cars, some of them are only available via those events and will fetch a good price on the auction house because of it.

I always wondered who the fatcats were that are apparently buying cars listed for 20 million on the auction house. Good to know that eventually someday I'll be diving into Scrooge McDuck piles of credits.

I'm one of those fatcats. All I ever do is grind on the Goliath or the Kraken/Leviathan. Half the fun of this game for me is collecting cars and sometimes I'm too lazy to grind the playlists or just forget to play Forza Horizon 4 for a while and miss out on exclusive cars.

I haven't checked how far away I am from cleaning out the clothing, but I'm definitely close; probably something like two to four of those black t-shirts with class logos left, and the streaming service gear, which I abandoned the thought of getting ages ago, since I'm not streaming for love or money

well, maybe large amounts of money. but you get my point. I did not get this video game to allow the internet to say slurs at me.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
Haven't seen it posted here since I guess it doesn't matter to most of us, but Forza Horizon 4 is coming to Steam in a few weeks. So if you're big into online multiplayer, be prepared for the rush

If you need to make money I used this to get like 150 mil in 2 hours. Is it bad for the community? maybe, but people do be selling Superfasts and 599xx e for 132k. (they sell for 10-20mil).

I've been playing a lot lately. Here's a super loving satisfying corner I took in an online playlist I wanna show off. This game is very satisfying when you spend time getting better.

LOL if you think multiplayer will be fixed.. especially if you're actually trying to play with a person you know.

I do the online adventure stuff, but they include cross country races where people must have learned all the overland routes and I always do terribly on those.

You only 'have' to play cross country playlists if you're trying to do Ranked (which is dumb as gently caress). Lots of players are using the custom playlist search and selecting no freeroam, but there's no ranking system. Just good, no bs racing.

Nice! I’ve only tried the ranked adventures since they’re part of the seasonal playlists.

Even if I can't transfer my save over I'm happy that FH4 is getting ported over to steam, as both the Windows Store and UWP are major pains in the rear end to deal with. Honestly I don't mind starting over, I miss what little progression the beginning of the game had.

The more I play Horizon 4, the more I wish I could just buy some of these clothing items with the massive amount of cash I have lying around. I've got $21 million, just let me buy a friggin' cowboy hat and some aviators! I'm tired of getting 15+ Wheelspins and getting crappy shoes and $2k and skirts :argh:

Yes but if you just bought everything then you'd stop playing and their user engagement metrics would drop and we can't have that! Shareholders would get angry!

Man, I come from the land of Destiny 2, I know all too well about Player Engagement and Metrics and FOMO. Being able to buy clothes definitely would not make me play less, I'll still happily load up the game every day to do the dirt series and do all the seasonal stuff :v:

No. It's from a real life competition where people turn actual cars into hot wheels looking ones and the winners of that have an actual small hot wheels car made out of them.

It was 17$ for standard edition a few months ago. I expect it will be discounted during future steam sales, but I don’t know why anyone would pay 60$ for it.

Horizon 4 does still get updates with a lot of regularity, and it does get deep discounts often. For sure wait for a sale.

I'll get the steam version eventually, just so I don't have to deal with the microsoft store but not at full price and without the ability to transfer my save. Maybe some clever modder might be able to figure out how to convert saves by the time the steam version goes on sale.

Sure, I wouldn't pay full price for it now, but $1/hour is my value benchmark for gaming, and I've definitely gotten more than 60 hours worth out of FH4.

if i had FH4 installed and could purchase the vintage racers and sell them on the auction house to people who wanted them at a heavy loss, i would

wish this game had a new game+ mode or something; no idea how it'd work, though.
