Now is it top 50% as usual or do we just have to participate to win the cars?

Just participation if you want to win the cars.

So far, participation makes you eligible to win the cars. Doesn't seem guaranteed yet.

It looks to me like you just need to set a clean lap time on the leaderboard to get the car.

This is good news for me, now I'll be able to get a 2nd Silvia S14 to turn into a Nismo 270R.

EDIT: Double Tree'd XD

Guess I'll do them tonight and sell the duplicate horizon editions.

I think I'll turn my duplicate Warthog into a My Little Pony itasha.

I don't really care about any of these prizes... Oh well.

What I'm looking forward to are the DLC clues that should be coming up later today.

 

[Ken]

I've got the first two forzathon events complete.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Thank you for the useless waste of time post which avoids the answer in every way, simply because I'm a member of a forum does not mean I'll be made aware by being brought up, not to mention you did not add my name in your post.

And I didn't have to. It's incredibly ironic you want to point fingers because you weren't tagged about a situation where you didn't give credit. I tagged the members that actually created the content. Something you couldn't be bothered to do, though you did request some shots a day before the images were just used without credit anyway.

Those tagged members could then choose how to proceed.

I've made previous claims that you're a moderator that causes drama, I stand by that if you want to speak about the past, I can advise a member of staff on how to improve moderating, it's called feedback. Stay on topic, wouldn't want you to get another thread locked.

You're not suggesting moderation improvements, you're telling other members what to do (including a member of staff). I don't know how to say this any simpler: you do not have that power.

You have failed to validate your reasoning for not tagging me, just because you're a moderator, does not mean people are not allowed to have a negative view on you, don't try taking advantage of it.

Say it with me now: reading comprehension. People are free to have whatever opinion they want of me. Point me to where I've said otherwise.

...

Figured they'd run some aspect of FRC Season 2 in Horizon. I've got every single one of the prizes outside of the Warthog, which I assume I'll pick up this weekend. Not going to kid myself into thinking I could net any of the physical prizes...

A little surprised they're bringing back the guys that made it into the S1 finale. I can see the argument for it (starting the narrative of "returning champion"), but it gives less opportunity for new faces. Not sure which is more important.

Also, awkward timing to use Audi!

Traffic cars tend to bother me...

Did anyone happen to see this?

Looks like we may be getting a new race car 👍

What the heck? Are there two steering wheels in that MB or is the guy just sitting on the passenger's side? The most stranges thing founded on FH3 so far.

There's a steering wheel on the right side, but the dash placement makes it seem like it should be on the left. How odd

I think that's just an advertisement for the Forza Motorsports 6 ESL Championship thing.

Aren't all those already in FM6?

I know right? How odd indeed haha!

 

[AudiMan2011]

They are. The R8 was DLC, the rest are in the vanilla game.

 

[ImaRobot]

The second Forza Racing Championship season is being split across FM6 and FH3. The hardcore Elite Series will be on Motorsport 6 whilst the more casual Recreation Series will be done on Horizon 3.

I know that, but what I'm saying is that it's unlikely that the car in the picture is something to be considered for H3, as that advertisement is directly from FM6, so it's likely that it's just showing FM6.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

I like the off road races especially when you get to do this

Didn't stick the landing I think that was Lazerops Evo.

 

[ToyGTone]

I want to do the Forzathon but all the players wants S2 class while all my 5 Extreme off roaders are on S1 and A class.

Is there any way we can put together our own group?

 

[DJTHEKING]

So... When are the clues coming?

 

[DJTHEKING]

Ok screw this Forzathon.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Is there any way we can put together our own group?

The objectives say it has to be public games. I don't think doing them in a private room would count towards them.

 

[ToyGTone]

Here's a challenge for you, play playground games mode with simulation damage on. I accidentally forgot to turn it off after i was messing around with it and well...

tldr for those if you suck at racing professionally

set a time, you are "eligible" (really, it's not a guarenteed thing?) to win a car each week

Week 1 – 2017 Ford GT Horizon Edition

Week 2 – 2554 AMG Transport Dynamics M12S Warthog CST

Week 3 – 2016 Jaguar F-TYPE Project 7 Horizon Edition

Week 4 – 2015 Ford #17 Xbox Racing Ford Falcon FG X

Week 5 – 1994 Nissan Silvia K’s

Week 6 – 2012 Nissan GT-R Black Edition Horizon Edition

Week 7 – 2014 Bentley #7 M-Sport Bentley Continental GT3

do all 7, you get a 77 Vantage with a livery

This should have its own thread like Forzathon does.

I like that they out the casual portion of RC on Horizon and kept the professional portion on Motorsport. I've not got the pace for Elite Series but I might have to try winning a Playseat

Livery by Jfiler I believe, one of the featured designs for that car.

New Barn Find
In last week’s edition of the Week in Review, Mechberg teased a new addition coming to the game in November, something that we’d never done in the Forza Horizon series. Today we’ve got a bit more detail on that new addition. Alongside our new car pack arriving on Tuesday, we’re also adding a brand new barn find to the game! We’ll let the actual make and model stay a surprise for now but, look for the new barn find to be available for players once they have received the new content update in Forza Horizon 3, and after they have discovered at least the first barn find in the base game. Happy hunting!

Car 1 Clue 1: Halloween is such a kooky time of year! I love the festive nature of this holiday.

Car 2 Clue 1: It may be crazy to hear this but, what comes around goes around.

Car 3 Clue 1: You never know until you try! The result might make for generations of cherished rivalries and competition.

Car 4 Clue 1: If lives were gears this cat would be hitting 60 in less time than it takes to read this clue aloud.

Car 5 Clue 1: It takes class to inspire this kind of driving. Well, that and one helluva big wing!

Car 6 Clue 1: Street legal yes, daily driver, probably not.

Car 7 Clue 1: Sometimes winning makes for strange bedfellows.

 

[R5]

kooky

Typo?

 

[AudiMan2011]

Car 4 I think is either the F-Type SVR or the CX-75 Prototype.

Car 5 is maybe the SRT Viper ACR '16?

 

[-Fred-]

I took it straight of Johniwanna's post on FM.net, so maybe. Or it's a play on words and we'll end up with a "kouki" version of a Japanese car.

 

[FT-1]

Car 2 sounds like a Fisker Karma.
