The TVR Cerbera has finally been gifted to those eligible for it.

You will need to reinstall your Car Pass, which will also install all of your downloadable cars and packs to your game. You need to do the same for FH4 as well.

Thanks, but checked again today and the issue had sorted itself. That's why I started my previous post wondering whether the glitch was only temporary, as this is often the case.

Hi all.

If anyone's up for some Formula Ford racing my Club's hosting a session on Monday, 20.00 GMT.

All skill levels welcome :)
 
So how many IndyCar tracks are in the game.. . COTA, Long Beach, Sebring (testing) , Sonoma, Laguna Seca, Road America, Indianapolis, Miami (testing) ....?

There's no Miami track in the game. So just the other seven you mentioned.
 
So, I'm working on making my own Rolex Daytona race. I have 3 buckets: P1, P2 and GT. I want to be in the GT class but still want to be in the back of the field. Is there a way to do this?

Hmmm did the devs forget to add a new leages month? :)

They are all closed for me now..

Looks like you're right. Leagues appears to have ended.

Edit: I don't think Leagues have ended. Friday's Week in Review mentioned new races for this week.

"Over in Leagues, Series 4 wraps up this week, and we kick over to a new Season this weekend. The new Season is dubbed “Keeping Pace” and here’s a look at what’s coming in the season’s first series:
EVENT 01 – Ghost – Showroom Rally
EVENT 02 – Simulation – Supercars Championship
EVENT 03 – Spec Ghost – 1967 Eagle-Weslake T1G
Series Reward – 2015 Audi S1
Season Reward – 1968 Dodge Dart HEMI Super Stock Forza Edition"

They just haven't updated Leagues with these new races yet for some reason.

I didn't receive my Forza weekly bonus, ( From Forza Hub ) for the last 2 weeks. I just logged in to Forza Hub, selected bonus, raced in a League race, and then got notification. When I checked gifted credits, it gave me 600,000 instead of 200,000 which I normally should get. SO, I guess they knew it was a problem and planned accordingly? Anybody else experience this?

I didn't get my Forza Hub rewards a couple weeks ago, but last week I got two week's work. I guess once it it finally triggers, it gives you all your unclaimed rewards at the same time.
 
Yeah it appears so. At first, I thought it got hung up because I didn't collect my car rewards from the last Bounty Hunter. I had to leave them in the Gift Folder, until I could get rid of some cars. I collected all the Credits, but left 2 or 3 of the cars until later. It's a pain to keep my garage at 900 cars, and then to manipulate the cars, designs in order to sell or auction off them off for some Credits. Soon I'll just have to "Get Rid". Which seems a shame, because I went through all of the trouble to earn them. I just don't understand why they don't allow us to sell off the gift cars for a decent amount of credits. 100 seems a bit low

I sell dupes back to the game and remove numbered cars I don't want. AH slowed down with FH4 release. Unicorns are still easy to sell though.

IMO the limit of designs (400-ish) is much worse. And there's cars I like with barely any race designs. Z4 was a unicorn for a long time and people kinda ignored it.

You could also sell all of the offroaders I guess. My collection is complete and I keep it that way but you might have a different idea. Wish FM7 had a "Favorites" filter. :(
 
How do you even play multiplayer in this game? I get pushed and rammed off the track at every opportunity, it feels like complete crap. Trying to drive cleanly, taking first place, slowing down for the next corner and I get slammed off the track, losing all my positions in the process. This isn't even remotely fun or interesting, it doesn't matter what you do, you get a crap race whether you try to push to the front, or try to avoid contact, there's just no winning strategy. I wanna see those damn race regulations, because right now it's more like destruction derby than actual racing. I though the issues were overblown, but they really aren't.

The "Endurance Forza GT" hopper is the only one I get clean racing in with any sort of regularity.

Is really best to join one of the many organized groups out there though. They police themselves so crashers don't get to stick around. The hoppers with randoms are indeed an absolute mess most of the time, it really amazes me that there are people playing Forza multiplayer consistently that just stick to the hoppers.
 
If you were playing on Saturday or Sunday, forget about it. Don't waste your time. Those are the worst days to race in public hoppers. I race on Saturdays and Sundays from about 5am to 9 or 10am then shut the game off.

You can order the grid by descending and you should be in the last 1/3 of the field.

Stick to the Endurance, Cycled Production, and Ghost hoppers - or play at off-peak times for the others. I find the first two tend to have pretty high quality opposition, and ghost races solve the problem for obvious reasons.

There's also a meta-learning curve for avoiding some of the bad drivers and rammers - figuring out the best position for taking corners and avoiding the pack of morons, etc.

I missed this month's stream - did they give any update on when the Racing Regs are coming?
