The game has the ability for players to gift cars to other players that they don't want or need. Congratulations on getting 22 in one go though bud.
It's best for everyone to just bypass such a 'discussion' as it's unnecessary... All I will say is, you don't buy anything with real money aside from the cars in the autoshow via that voucher thing (IF, you feel you need to purchase certain cars). But why even do that when it's so easy to make money in this game by simply just playing it and leveling up? Plus, you earn wheelspins through leveling up, purchasing them in the Forzathon shop via Forzathon points, which can be obtained through either completing challenges, Forzathon Live events, sometimes treasure hunts etc. Never in my three and in half years of playing this game have I ever purchased any wheelspin through MTX, so I don't know where Cloud got this "gacha scam" idea from. Hell, I have 400+ wheelspins and 400+ Super wheelspins, and that was just by leveling up and buying them in the Forzathon Shop (via Forzathon points btw, which is a at 22000+, not trying to flex I promise.)
Gosh. Try to read conversation and you will get that I was talking about two different topics - gatcha mechanic of wheelspins and not directly related to that mtx. I never accused PG in using gatcha mechanics to monetize game, which doesn't excuse usage of it as core of progression.
I'm aware what this "conversation" is about Cloud, so take it easy.
That's fine. But again, I have no idea where you're getting that wheelspins feel like a "gacha mechanic".
Other than the Car Voucher which you do pay real money for cars in the autoshow, there is really no other mtx in the game for you to worry about. Just play the game and it won't feel as "scummy" as you think it is.
) as I figured that was a way to reward them for progressing.
You definitely not.

Simple fact, that game going p2w MTX way AFTER I BOUGHT IT WITHOUT THIS is enough for me to be annoyed. Not sure why you desperately trying to convince me its OK.
You definitely not.
Forza Horizon 5: General Discussion
IDK, try to start new account and complete few weekly playlists without wheelspins? I started the game when it was released originally. I'm a regular player, logging in at least 3 to 4 times a week real life allowing. I own 900 individual cars, have 100's of wheel spins and 100's of super wheel...

Guilty 🤣Some people like InCloud are desperate to get the last word.
You gotta know when to hold 'em. Some people don't know when to fold 'em.
At least on this thread people who have actually played FH5 at length can give his wacko theory the short shrift it deserves rather than on the PlayStation thread where it might mislead noobies into thinking the game somehow depends on microtransactions.
I wouldn't gamble on it.True, true. 👍 Not gonna lie, he needs to get out of the clouds (pun not intended).
Except for the fact that the people that CHOOSE to buy car vouchers have no advantage of those folks that play the game and earn the cars.
See fam, I agree that MTX shouldn't be in this game. But I'm also fine with them because they are virtually worthless. They only apply to Autoshow cars, which btw, can be bought for CHEAPER than Autoshow prizes in the auction house. FOR CREDITS - You know - the thing this game bombards you with constantly. A lot of the (more expensive) Autoshow cars are also just festival playlist rewards, or are on the Forzathon shop or even as given out for completing accolades.You definitely not.

Kinda, but would it be that way in Horizon 6?
There wasn't way to buy them with MTX. I have no idea, why there was so much controversy about them and no one care about absolutely the same mechanic in Horizon.
Here we go again?
The only way to buy wheelspins in FH5 is by actually playing the game or earning Forzathon points by doing the playlists or getting achievements, you can't buy wheelspins with physical money. Much like you acquire roulette tickets in GT7 by actually playing the game. Again, your argument holds no weight.
