Or the BMW 750iL from Tomorrow Never Dies. Love that scene when Q delivers it to Bond.Damn! I really need the original AM Vanquish from Die another day
Loved it in FM3 and FM4

You need Ultimate Edition or buy the pack separately. So it is not free stuff. Micro Transactions?The removed the Micro Transactions so this is free stuff right?

I know what MTX are. Let's be honest. Forza games had MTX on every X-Box One game but FM7. With Tokens you could bought everything but the DLC content. That is why I asked why MTX? Ok, I did not ask why.Doesn't really fit the definition for MTX - which usually allow the player to buy cosmetic or consumable items (that in most cases could otherwise be unlocked through normal gameplay progression) one-by-one from an in-game marketplace. I'd say that it's more of a proper DLC, considering it comes with 10 cars that are otherwise inaccessible to players.
Also consider that the Ultimate Edition is cheaper than the Standard + VIP, Car Pass and the likely cost of the two expansions. So, it's really more of an extra zero-cost perk of the Ultimate (together with early access) than a DLC. That is, of course, until it hits the Marketplace.
Am I the only one who got excited for the BMW Z3 1.8i and the 750iL?
They had a chance to make something really unique However, this is one epic pack. I'm itching for this game more and more.
Didn't say it was free, more so that it was a perk of ordering the Ultimate edition. With how much is included in the Ultimate, you get such a large deal compared to buying everything separately that it's practically like getting a bunch of free goodies on the side.I know what MTX are.

You can consider it for free but you still need to pay for it... so it is not free.
Day One Car Pack is not the Formula Drift Car Pack, which doesn't need an extra money.. just the pre-order status.
I know, that is why I said you can consider it free. but since he quoted my response to another question and just to make things more clear I quoted his post to. The Ultimate Edition is the perfect deal period.Didn't say it was free, more so that it was a perk of ordering the Ultimate edition.

Buying ingame currency with real money is the very definition of microtransactions.Fair enough, tbh I didn't bring the Tokens example up because they weren't a terribly successful example of microtransations.
It is not like that.... It is more like asking the hostess if the champagne that they serve in first class is for free.This is kinda like saying that complementary toiletries in hotel rooms aren't free, because you have to pay for the room in order to get them?
I don't see how, since that has a fee associated to it. This doesn't.It is not like that.... It is more like asking the hostess if the champagne that they serve in first class is for free.
Have you ever been on a intercontinental flight? I was many times. If you stay in economy class you can see the first class department. The passenger from the first class are offered a glass of champagne (it is free). The economy passengers don't get the glass too. You still need a ticket for both class but you will get the champagne for free only in fist class. Can we get back to topic now?I don't see how, since that has a fee associated to it. This doesn't.
The way I see it is if you're purchasing it as part of the Ultimate bundle, it is essentially free. Considering this is the version that is being discussed here, rather than the standalone, I don't really understand the issue with making that sentiment.Have you ever been on a intercontinental flight?

What you are saying is all true. It is just one problem. The Day One Pack will be available as a separate pack for players that didn't bough the Ultimate Edition after October 2nd for extra money. It is for "free" if you buy the UE but the pack is separate even from Car Pass. You can clearly see it on X box store or Microsoft one.The way I see it is if you're purchasing it as part of the Ultimate bundle, it is essentially free.

Considering this is a discussion about the car pack that this thread is about, it's fairly on topic.
You're right. No one was saying otherwise though, even on the post you replied to.What you are saying is all true. It is just one problem.

Ok... let's put it that way. You bought the pack at a discount price. You payed for it. You bought the whole package. It was not added later for free.... so it is not free.You're right. No one was saying otherwise though, even on the post you replied to.
Again, you're right. No one said it was though. All that was said is that with what you're paying for with the Ultimate edition, and the cost of it all, it's essentially like getting something for free, because you're getting such a deal. I think a language barrier might be confusing you.Ok... let's put it that way. You bought the pack at a discount price. You payed for it. You bought the whole package.

I just tried to make it less confusing for non UE owners... like I said 9 post before.Again, you're right. No one said it was though.

I kind of think you just made it more confusing lol.I just tried to make it less confusing for non UE owners... like I said 9 post before.
You should see the question I responded to begin with. Now that was some confusing stuff.I kind of think you just made it more confusing lol.
