I much as I love FH4, it really is time we got back on the track with FM8. T10 can't keep on relying on PG forever to continue supporting FH4. Even though it's good as an idea, the fact is it's becoming older now. PG has done wonderfully with FH4, so once support is over, it will be well deserved imo.It always worries me when a game reaches this level of content. I don't know how licensing would affect a game like this, but right now I feel like FH5 should be a live service with bigger maps, expansions, car packs, etc. Because there is really nothing that game could possibly do to surpass FH4 at this point, other than some minor polishing that could instead be added to FH4 in patches.
And yeah, this game is getting old. It pretty much relies on the Season changes at this point.
The constant car changes in the forzathon shop is nice and the updates are free anyway so I don't mind waiting.
Because of the decision to give FM8 and FH5 an extra year of development time, we knew FH4 was going to get some extra use. Honestly, I'm still finding things to do beyond the weekly Forzathons or Eliminator races. I still have so many cars to drive. I also have work to do in the Star Card, Forza Promo, and several other things. And I'm still finding new photo locations. I'm set for another year and a half.I much as I love FH4, it really is time we got back on the track with FM8. T10 can't keep on relying on PG forever to continue supporting FH4.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still playing FH4 and doing all the same things you've just mentioned (especially driving the cars, which is my most favorite thing to do now after collecting them all). It's just I really REALLY want to get back on track with FM8.Because of the decision to give FM8 and FH5 an extra year of development time, we knew FH4 was going to get some extra use.

There is no Corvette Pre-Order car. Did you mean the Camaro?Totally agree here....I was so happy to see the Corvette Pre-Order car the other day as I had every other car in game except for 4 pre-order cars (only started playing 3 months ago and by the time I decided the Auction House was worth a visit, they'd stopped the auction of PO cars!!)...here's hoping they put the other 3 in the shop at some point so I can complete my collection

Since they have been giving away almost all PO cars (except DB11 which is the only car I don't have), I don't see why are these still forbidden in the auction house. I found out only when I wanted to sell my Camaro duplicate.
I would tend to agree with the live maps. Did you know that Flight Simulator 2020 is doing exactly that?
Yes, that too...Yeah, and they broke the summer season. Instead of 100%, I now have 96% with 4 daily challenges turning from done to expired.
