Reward credits not showing up just like the Lotus for VIP. :)))

Their website has been semi-broken for a while too('can't communicate w/Xbox Live').

EDIT: I'm a peanut. :P Just had to DL the message for credits to appear: Tier 4 =4 million. :)

Still no Lotus, and it's so tempting to buy it. :/

I don't know when you will be able to buy an X1. No one has one here in California. I have a friend who wants one and can't find one either. I'd guess maybe MS would get some restocked to take advantage of xmas, but who knows. As far as Fifa or Forza, I can only recommend Forza because I'm playing that. It's pretty damn awesome despite the controversial economy in the game.

TY for the heads up and the link TC. Great stuff indeed. :)))

Jeff's wheelhouse. Keep at it TC and you'll get better. Perseverance my friend. :)

Well I guess Turn 10 has heard enough about their in-game economy to do something. Today they announced on their website that they're offering 50% off any car in the game starting this Friday and ending Sunday midnight. In addition they are gifting VIP members the Lotus E21, the Le Ferrari if you have the pack, and another on disk car for Limited Edition owners(1250 token problem/promise). They also are saying they're 'dramatically' upping the payouts in Forza Rewards starting in December. Testing the cost of silencing the complaining obviously.

All fine and good but just remodel the token pricing scheme to more palatable numbers T10(like single digits), and maybe cut the prices on some of the top tier multimillion credit cars.

I hear ya. I'm really enjoying the game too, a dozen or so races in. But you have to go to cars and see the prices on all the high-end class cars. They are pretty ridiculously priced, in credits and especially in terms of the tokens that are the topic itt. The F1 Lotus is 6 million. So some content is kinda locked or will take mucho grinding...unless you pay a lot....an unprecedented amount in terms of micros. It's shocking really. And the recommended day one DLC car pack aside. :((

If this is even a 'story', the associated angry internet is all moot anyway. TOS. Read it and know it will be enforced. That and have some self control when the camera is on.

And, as I expected he doesn't really answer any of the excellent questions. The whole micro transaction thing is here to stay though, and we're seeing it everywhere on all platforms, but this game is just egregious about them. The internet is pissed though and the heat is building on Turn 10 and MS on this and I can't wait to see how this will be addressed eventually. At the very least they need to scale the token cost and pricing that's currently on offer back to a much more 'nickel and dime' scale.

And BTW, maybe it's standard practice and I can't remember when 2-4 launched but I just got gifted 3 cars from T10, one even being the Ferrari Berlinetta.

EDIT: Those 3 cars were Forza Rewards. Got 70k credits too by going to the site and claiming. Everyone who's played a lot of the Forza games including Horizon has a score and some rewards associated with that score. Go claim them. My next tier(1237 away, tier 4 now))is a P1 car. Rewards will added periodically according to the site. How often who knows. Hmmm.

That part of ME3 made me pause the game and get some tissues. Such a sad and profound moment.

I had a ton of servers available for conquest on xbox one yesterday, and quick match was working like a charm.

I was kinda surprised as the usual Battlefield launch server fubar lasts at least a few weeks.
