) without being sniped within seconds of an auction going live by what I can only presume is a bot. It's pixels on a screen, ffs, it's not like it's actual PC hardware or some 🤬.
Auction House is an ancient system at this point; feels like it was designed for a very different time (which it practically was, considering how far back it goes with relatively-few updates outside of search filtering etc.). With normal cars, you often either get stuck in a bidding war until someone ends up buying out the lot out of frustration (for higher than it would go in the autoshowI have a brilliant idea, why not, instead of wasting time with "penalizing" people who took advantage of a worthless exploit in The Eliminator, something be done about the absolute bottery being done in the Auction House?
I absolutely cannot get any of the FE cars (and the Furai; what can I say, I nuked it in a fit and it's the only race car I want back
Incredibly frustrating.
), or nobody bids and you get it for base -- there seems to be very little in between, and bidding wars are rather frustrating due to refreshing being slow. And if it's a rare/desirable wheelspin/playlist car, then good luck competing with the bots/macros.

I don't think outright replacing it would be necessary, but just to float an idea, something like an "import/used car marketplace" could be interesting in my mind (playing off the aftermarket car system, but NOT updating/replacing it -- it could share theming, but would otherwise be entirely separate). In essence, players could submit X price (in credits, of course) which they'd be willing to pay for something, and if someone feels like selling that car for that much, then it would go to the first person who put up a buy offer for X credits (and then the next, etc). Or, a seller could list a car for Y price - even if there are no current "buy" offers high enough - and if someone felt like paying that much for it, then it could sell for Y credits to whoever bought it first. Think something a bit like the Steam marketplace, but with in-game currency only, of course (and anonymous + with limits similar to the auction house's dynamic buyout adjustments, both in an effort to help prevent grey market sales).
Of course, in the case of especially rare/desirable cars, this could probably still be subject to botting/super high pricing making it inaccessible to some, but it feels like it could at the very least be a bit better of an experience than having to constantly refresh/attempt to snipe cars via the auction house. (And, the slowness of the auction house's updates wouldn't pose most of the same issues.)
Probably not a perfect solution regardless, but just spitballing.
Oh same here haha but yeah clearly not. I'm also hoping that as well and also I wouldn't mind see an Evo 5 GSR get added later on either.
Thank you!!!
or not penalise people who had to do an eliminator last week for the Lotus Exige and had more than 10mil balances... now I'm missing around 8mil...
I hope too they allow us to keep changing difficulty - depends on how much FOMO I'm feeling I just want it over and done with so I can get the reward cars and go race something for fun without having the fear of not obtaining said reward car. And said reward car never appearing again. Even if I have 20m and the car doesn't appear in the auction house like what happened in FH5..
ngl this is the reason i bought fh6 on steam than xbox app although it's a bit expensive.I thought the disconnection issues I’d been having were finally fixed, but now they’re back and bad as ever.
I don’t have a PC, so this is it for me.
I wouldnt be surprised if there were more users on these forums once its closed.Discord seems a bit of a mess,if you dont go on there for a day theres too much pointless comments to wade through to catch up on and ive never got involved with twitter.
Funny, that sounds familiar. Lots of repetition as well huh?
I was banned from that server for swearing about The Eliminator and that 5s map was built around it. Even though Discord is not for everyone. I don't really use Discord that much anymore to be honest.
Ran the race last night with my Venom F5, and aside from two Centenarios doing nearly 300mph to keep up with me on straights, their bullcrap cornering speeds are gone. No more 240mph slot-car handling in the Tokyo city section. The Colossus is actually fun now! And I won comfortably by 11 seconds on Expert.
Bring a Trailer price ahhh
