If it means making you play the game to earn those cars, than I see nothing wrong with that as it makes you feel rewarded for earning them. If PG were to just hand out any brand new car to everyone, you will have those complain that the game is too forgiving, and thus deeming it as "too boring to play now" after driving the new cars for what, five minutes? IMO, I prefer the other method and actually play the game to earn new cars. Besides, PG always will bring back these cars every once and awhile.But the catch here is that GTS doesn't lock the new content behind time gated events
That's easier said than done. You see, if it wasn't for the fact that you literally have to grind to earn most of the new cars in GTS, than what you said could've been true. I'm talking about redoing the same events over and over again until you have more than enough credits to buy those cars PD adds into the game via updates, which are well over 1 million credits. You have no other choice but to buy them with real money if you don't want to grind for them, and we all know how bad GTS's economy is that regard. PD should do what Turn 10 does with its DLC cars (and cars in the vanilla game), and that's having them be all available in Arcade Mode. But atlas, PD won't ever that and fans won't demand it. Which in my book, is no better than how PG handles its new cars.you can hop in and buy any of the post launch cars today, tomorrow, next month or next year.
PG will always bring back these cars every once and awhile, whether in certain events on the playlist, the Forzathon shop, or other means to obtain them.Now on FH4 you can only get the newly added cars when the developers make them available through the festival playlist, or if you find them being sold at the auction house by other players.

However, I do believe most if not all of the race cars (emphasis on race cars, not drift monstrosities) are headed to FM8 and not FH4. Seriously, does anyone really think a Porsche 956 would be a great fit for Horizon when it would come straight to X class? The BTCC cars could maybe come to FH4 taking into account the game takes place in Britain, but somehow I don't see them making as much as an impact on the game as cars like the new Zenvo. The SCCA Mustangs feel redundant.
I mean.. There are several cars added to FH4 that in my opinion belongs in a Forza Motorsport game, and not a Forza Horizon game, like the Porsche 917 LH that came not too long ago.
So it's not like they care much about that.
I don't remember if it was a Lincoln on this list, but there were a few posts on the official forum wishlist thread requesting American "non-sporty" saloons and coupes. Like Cadillac and Lincoln.
These are minorities, but as I remember this, there should have been a certain number of posts, so it is possible that they responded to that opinion.
Similarly, there were many American users seeking American classic SUV and pickup, so GMC Jimmy may be the answer from PG for these requests.
You know FM7 has 700+ cars?
Yes - realize that Forza 7 has 700 + cars. In actuality, same as in GT6 would probably only use half that many except for a few times. Basically that way with GTS, and still have plenty that could grind to someday purchase.
Just believe that for the most part would not think that the graphics and or physics coding between FH4 and FM7 would be that much different but could be totally off base. Someday there will be the idea blend between say project cars and FM or GT. This weekend has mainly been PC2 for me. PC2 is hard to get set-up to really enjoy, but when you do you realize what you wish FM or GT could be from racing perspective.
The problem I have with how it's done in Horizon 4 is that you have to be playing in a certain window of time doing specific things to otain those cars. In GT Sport you have as long as you want/it takes to earn the Cr to purchase those cars. I have no interest in being forced to play a game today to do X or Y to have a certain car, if I have as long as it takes for me to get around to doing that then fine. But don't force me to play the game today or this week even otherwise I miss out.If it means making you play the game to earn those cars, than I see nothing wrong with that as it makes you feel rewarded for earning them.

In other words, you prefer PG to hand you the cars? As in, release them as free DLC each month? For example, release them in the Autoshow to be bought with in-game money each season, while having them be up for grabs via the festival playlist for players to earn for free?Dude, there's a difference between "playing the game" and "playing the game doing stuff I don't want to do in the game". FH4's approach is the latter.
Worse, they're timed. We're in what started as a Gran Turismo forum. I don't think anyone here has issues playing games to unlock content. It's the timed aspect, the "see, you must play the game THIS WEEK or you'll ONLY get the car when WE decide to add it back!" that's messed up IMO.
No need to tell me twice. I too hate it when PG does that as well. I think they just do that out of spite. It also shows the nature of some players too, which I despise the most. Any trial that's a higher class is what I mostly hate. If the later trials were like this seasons' trials, I'd be good with that.Playing The Trial under difficult conditions exposes the game's faults rather than providing players with fair difficulty. It shows the high classes provide bad racing and the community is mostly uncooperative, although, now that most of the chaff has left the game, it's far easier to find good games in The Trial.
And don't get me started on Team Games! Takes longer to find matches in, and completely reliant on the way teams are assembled.
Imagine having to work to earn something you want instead of having it spoonfed to you...
Let's just continue playing to obtain these cars shall we? No worries. 👍GTP really is the home of complaining about free stuff

That idea imho would be spot on for both games 👍. Limited TT's to win the cars as an added bonus in GTS's case, and exactly as you've described for Forza.For example, release them in the Autoshow to be bought with in-game money each season, while having them be up for grabs via the festival playlist for players to earn for free?
How's that for an idea? Also, don't call me dude, DUDE.
Anyway, I'm going to do my own little analysis on this leak:
- The cars as a whole aren't all going to be in FH4. I'm not even sure how long PG is going to add content to this game considering we're already pass the typical time content gets released on a Horizon game. Well, unless they're pulling what Turn 10 did with FM7 and continuing to add cars regardless. Even then, I think only a small portion of what's listed will make it.
The more the merrier to be honest. I can't get enough of this game. 👍The devs have confirmed that there are going to be continued playlist updates at least well into 2020 (hinting towards some "more everyday cars in a month next year"), so it's most likely longer than before.
Alright then, cool.The devs have confirmed that there are going to be continued playlist updates at least well into 2020 (hinting towards some "more everyday cars in a month next year"), so it's most likely longer than before.
