All rewards are the point. What's not to like about a few extra credits and not having to spend credits on every car and suit?

I can see your point. I did the Forzathon when there as a locked car as the reward. That's what motivated me. Now that there are no locked cars, I can just go buy anything I want. With over 300 million credits I don't have to worry about spending.

Sure, there were plenty of complaints about the TVR and Ferrari, but I had never heard anyone complain about Forza Edition cars being locked aside from the occasional muttering about the exclusive bodykits. A perfectly good solution could've been simply adding those bodykits as conversion options for their standard counterparts; this way they could appease players who only want the unique bodykits, whilst the rarity and credit bonuses of the actual FE cars keep players coming back for Forzathon challenges. Instead, not only have FE cars become readily available, but a lot of them are so cheap that they're not even worth selling on the auction house if you've been collecting duplicates (hell, the '93 SVT Cobra FE is 27000 credits cheaper than the standard car now). They didn't even unlock the MG MGA in the meantime for some bizarre reason - is that not worth complaining about if you're a fan of the car?

I'm not going to pretend there's a magical solution to every problem that will fix everything, but Turn10 seems to be particularly good at CREATING dichotomic complaints. When players complained about rammers, their initial solution was to ban SUVs from racing online, and then not even return to that rule, since the Barrett-Jackson Ford Bronco hasn't been banned; when players wanted more than a week to grab an exclusive car they wanted, their initial solution was to put the speciality dealer on a loop for several weeks where no new cars were introduced; now when players have complained about a handful of locked standard cars, their solution involves unlocking the cars that were functionally designed to be unicorn cars that many players enjoyed unlocking, collecting, and selling. Just because a solution exists, it doesn't mean it's a good one - if you asked me to fix a squeaky door and my solution was to remove the entire door, would it be dichotomic to complain about how drafty it is all of a sudden?

I completely agree with you. They should not have unlocked all the cars.

My collection of rare FE cars is now worth nothing. I have 10 - 12 FE Dodge Daytona's. Paid no less than probably 8 million a piece for them, and now worth NOTHING!

Not to mention the other 60 - 70 FE cars I collected for stupid prices.

I used a "S-class tuned" Mazda RX-7, with the wide body kit. It was real easy with that beast, especially if you choose the Lime Rock layout without any chicanes. You'll absolutely HAVE to upgrade one of the cars to achieve this Forzathon achievement. I think there is still time left.

How did you know what else was required to do for these rewards? When I looked at it last night all I saw for Syrup Slip was complete a race at Maple Valley. I didn't see the second part of it. And for Flaming Fury I saw complete a race in a Ferrari, I didn't see the other two parts of it. But now I'm glad I know there is a drift requirement for it so I can forget about trying for the Ferrari 250, I don't do any drifting.

Last night I was going to complete the second part of A Day at the Spa but I was going to try out the #75 Nissan 300ZX. Got to Spa, went into Test Drive, remembered why I don't like that car because of it's high hood line that limits vision, and then quit Test Drive so I could use something else. When I quit Test Drive the little notification came across the bottom on the screen that I had completed Day at the Spa even though I had never started the race let alone finished it. Went back to the home screen and got the 60k in credits. How did that happen where I never ran the proper race but still got the credits?

To keep players interested in these events, T10 really needs to give more money... I earn more money winning the events leading up to the prize than with the prize itself.

This also applies to PG with Horizon and its seasonal events.

For those interested, FE on Rio nationnal circuit is a lot of fun (10 laps)
