Forza 4 Thread

That's one thing I didn't like about the last Forza, and they've made it worse in 4 by increasing the number of Unicorn cars. The beauty of the digital world is once it's programmed, you get as many copies as you like for free. It is arbitrary and artificial to make something digitally or virtually "rare". Frankly it makes about as much sense as the car wash in GT 5.

But...but...think of weight savings by getting rid of all that dirt and the reduced drag coefficient with that fresh coat of wax!!! It's like... +5whp!!!!

Yeah, I don't like in GT games where there's a car wash, oil changes, and periodic re-stiffening... I mean, whatever, car maintenance is a hassle irl, and it is in games, too.

But what bums me out is that they're tying up my bid money. If I lose 4.6 million creds because the seller was exploiting the game in some way, then that sucks, and in fact, they should have just given me back my dough and said "sorry bout your luck", rather than make me wait forever and possibly lose that money because of some jackwagon.

Yea that would suck if you lost your bid. I'm surprised you were even close at 4.6 million. The bids for Unicorns I saw were all at 999,999,999.
