"generating random path" 3 words that are bringing me joy...
It look like it's more of a grind because there are two categories. But my experience was that by the time I completed any nitro chemist set all other sets were already completed. It looks like an algorithm where that last part just refuses to show.I know it would be more work to grind for parts, but I think I'd prefer it if they just made Street 1 and Street 2 into two completely separate categories, it would be simpler than both how it was before the update and how it is now.
I've just had another look, and they can maybe fix it if they just change the sorting algorithm. The S1 sets are actually in the list, they just aren't sensibly ordered. So, for example, I have a S2 car that has a partial magnet set, and is at 674 overall. It shows this before my complete magnet set that is on an S1 car, because it's at 600, even though it would be a full magnet set at 750 if it were put on an S2 car. They need to make it show all complete sets before anything else, whether they're on an S1 or S2 car.Yesterday however I didn't realize I put a S2 nitro set on a S1 car and thought it disappeared, like a bug or something.
I tried to farm prestige and got 7970 pts so far for the 3 shortest playlists:Therefore, you can meet the requirements to get a Prestige ticket after just one or two custom mode plays.
Sorry for the double.Moreover, the whole Motorfest structure with the playlists just suck. I want to drive what I want, where I want and when instead of being forced to drive certain vehicles in a certain order.
Thanks, I had got a slightly misleading impression of how the new system works from a content creator. I had two nitro chemist sets before the update, one for S1 and one for S2. The S2 set can be put on an S1 car, and temporarily becomes 600, but you can tell the game knows it's different to a natively 600 set, as it says it is temporarily at 600. The S1 set can be put on an S2 car, but as you say, it remains at 600.Ok, S2 parts can work with S1 cars, but it doesn't work the other way. It technically does, but it keeps the 600.
The thing about the Crew games is they strongly reward the time you invest in them. Anyone who has played The Crew 2 is very strongly rewarded when they play Motorfest. For example, in this week's Motorfest summit, The Evo Black Knight Edition and 3000 GT No Rules Edition are good cars for two of the events, and I already had those from TC2 summits. My combined hours in TC2 and TCM is much lower than my FH5 hours, but I'm not struggling for money in TC2/M. In FH5 there are 21 cars I don't have, and there's no way for me to get them. They're never in the AH, and the backstage pass vote just adds stupid things like wheelspin cars instead of cars that are actually hard to get. Contrast that with TCM where they've just taken another step to reduce the non-availability of exclusive cars. For me, the driving in the Crew games is way more exciting than in Horizon, and the variety of events isn't just on another level to Horizon, it's like it's 10 levels higher or something. I got the new 20 point car in FH5 yesterday, and sure, it was quick and easy, but it needs to be quick and easy when it's that dull and repetitive every week.Last night I bought the T.50, drove it around the new map for a bit and then quit the game. I just don't feel like it's worth my time, especially when the payouts are soo pitifully low and the cars soo ridiculously expensive. ...Forza Horizon... ...Motorfest feels boring in comparison and I'm not entertained at all - even when I am driving a T.50. I will not be going back to this game.
You can do that. Once you've finished a playlist you can use custom mode and play with every car class.Moreover, the whole Motorfest structure with the playlists just suck. I want to drive what I want, where I want and when instead of being forced to drive certain vehicles in a certain order.
The Motorfest playlists are kind of like the Horizon stories, and I think those are sequential just like the playlists?The problem is how to manage progression. Ivory decided that you need to complete a race to unlock another race. In FH5 you unlock all the races at once, and it's not ideal, many hate it.
My problem is why they forcing you to buy a car that is only needed for the challenges only after you complete the playlist. Even more absurd is the fact that usually the challenge can be done with the rental car in playlist mode.
Yeah the saturation has increased... seems to makes the underglows more radiant too. Ive noticed small improvements in the weather, light / shadows & puddle / window reflections which is now kinda tempting me (photography wise) to consider a PS5 pro, probably best to wait for a PS6 though.Has anyone noticed the that since the update dusk has a very pink hue to it?
I had this at least two times and everytime there was also thunder rolling, but the clouds were just regular.
This is in freedrive without any filters. Can't be right, right?

Indeed that moment is over stretched on the game when at sunset that tone last just fleeting moments, might be a bug rising up from the tokyo playlist 2 which has heavily saturated elements on the colour scheme. Its a shame motorfest doesn't have ray tracing (even that can have uncanny light moments in games like cyberpunk). What they have got right is the particle effects around the volcanic plume its truly spectacular to drive around. I remember when using photo mode early in the gaming changing time of day had a bleed effect on the colours upon resuming the game. Perhaps the game is not reverting back to default lighting correctly after racing tokyo playlist 2?But that just looks wrong and ridiculous. Everything in direct sunlight looks like spraypainted in pink.
I don't think so because daylight looks fine and the same as it always has been.Perhaps the game is not reverting back to default lighting correctly after racing tokyo playlist 2?
I could be wrong but I noticed, the slower the car is compared to the event, the better the category bonus is.For those interested, there are some Twitch drops available until 20th of November. A Chase Chihuahua (30 mins) and a Clawblades Lion (1 hour) decorations and the S2000 Red Panther for 2 hours of watching others play.
I just noticed they made a special Bucks bonus for using different vehicle categories? For example if you use a dirt bike in a street event you get 16% bonus. Pretty neat feature I wasn't aware of.
At first I thought that too. A bonus for using a slower car. Than I saw this video:I could be wrong but I noticed, the slower the car is compared to the event, the better the category bonus is.
I had a 32% bonus for using a very slow car category at some point.
My favourite of what I've tried is using the Racing category Gallardo Super Trofeo (because it's 4WD, and I already owned it). The bonus is lower than Alpha GP, at 53%, but it's massively easier to do the event with it. I can retry at intervals of around 1:42, and my calculation gives 1256k per hour based on the payout I got with a bucks set with bucks affixes.It kind of make sense. Using an Alpha in a Rally Raid event is really hard so a 70% bonus is reasonable. I have to try some combination.
Perhaps a new colour scheme then it is very stylised graphics, I watched the sun rise through the autumn mist here in the UK yesterday and the tones were even richer than in game!I don't think so because daylight looks fine and the same as it always has been.
At least for now it's Summit only.Are the new Prestige vanity items only from past Summits or are they from Custom Show price pool aswell?
If latter, I can't till the safety car lightbar comes up for grabs.
Like @WanganDream said Summits only. Unfortunately.... But than a lot Platinum are also missing. I was looking at Akor's Summit videos and saw the winter tire rooftop and Raptor underglow vanity but can't see those in the shop. That was the American month. We have the LBWK underglow from the Japanese month but missing a nitro glow and tire smoke from the same month. Maybe they will add those later? I'm not sure...Are the new Prestige vanity items only from past Summits or are they from Custom Show price pool aswell?
