Playing Forza for 2 days showed me why The Show is struggling
-
I would say the difference is actually fun. FH6 is a joy to play, no matter what you are doing. The Show feels like an incredibly unrewarding job at a company that hates you.

This is so true it’s sad.

THIS! 100%
Like how fun is racing against other Door Dashers to make food deliveries? When I first saw you can make coin by door dashing between races I thought it was cute - But it’s REALLY fun!

Maybe I should play some MLB The Show today before Forza enters wide release tomorrow. I still have some Cardinals to Acquire but right now Ozzie and Gibby will take almost all of my stubs. Then I will be up a creek the next time they put a Cardinal in a pack or behind a mode I don't play.
I have not even earned Edmonds yet

The problem is stubs, Period…SDS simply doesn’t award enough stubs across the entire mode to be able to upgrade your team in a reasonable amount of time. In Forza you earn a good amount of credits for just playing the game. And it doesn’t take forever to save up & make significant upgrades. That makes it fun & the grind feel rewarding. This is how SDS could fix it…Say you load into a game of Conquest - You should get 1000 stubs for a homer, 750 for a triple, 500 for a double…Win the game? 5000 stubs, Lose the game? 2500 stubs…Then just double the values for online play…This would make grinding for players MUCH healthier. There’s simply just not enough ways to earn enough stubs to make a difference currently. This would provide that & players would actually FEEL that they’re working towards a reasonable goal.
Lol this is a completely ignorant post about 2 completely different games. First off stubs for HR? Seriously, how would that even be a good idea? You'd just have people doing nothing but going in against the CPU on rookie and hitting tanks at Costco. This would effectively make EVERY single card more expensive. You'd be paying 50-100k for bronze cards. Next I just completely completed live series collection NMS. Only got lucky 1 pull with judge and collected him. You get sooooooo many packs from grinding it's not even funny. Did the new mural mini season on a 28 game 3 innings on All-star run and by the end had 200 different packs to open. So even if you pull nothing but silvers in those packs thats 5k stubs in just silver equipment and jerseys to sell. Then you end up with 12 ballin packs and get 1 low 400 stub gold oh another 5k just on those. And odds are you will get lucky and get something. So please stop with the complete disinformation, simply because you lack the information or ability to do the work.

@Rhyno1986_XBL when that ‘something’ you get for getting lucky is worth 3000 stubs or whatever it doesn’t really register, but sure

Ramone hasn't called the shots in the last 3 games. But when he did, this game was great.
The new smart alek monikar is now "Thanks Ashley".

Forza Horizon 2 on XBO was the GOAT of the series.

Truth about Ramone. He was around during the glory years.
I got Forza 5 late. I'm definitely getting 6 being a "racing-head." -
@TheGoaler_PSN I’m not even a racing head I’m just getting it for a change of scenery from sports games last forza game I played I was way to young to even understand it.
-
@The412Smoke_XBL they should not give us stubs for playing a game. They give us a little but this makes us grind for the stubs. I don't want to finish the live series in a week like you are wanting. That does not make it seem rewarding.

@Rhyno1986_XBL when that ‘something’ you get for getting lucky is worth 3000 stubs or whatever it doesn’t really register, but sure
The fact people on here complain about "the lack" of stubs prove they don't really play. You can go get this game today start a new account and spend 2 hours just doing programs and have a competitive team up to All-star or even HoF if you are decent. Complaining and comparing it ro a racing game while neglecting to mention that it's not like you start with the best cars in Forza and have to ALSO balance your upgrades and simply say you don't get enough to stay competitive is 100% disingenuous.

Don’t really play? Before Forza dropped, I had earned every pack from every program & mode in DD. I was still like a million stubs from completing live series. Only left to do would be to go full hamster on a wheel and keep playing the same mini seasons over and over and over and over again….That’s a terrible lack of content if you’re being required to either play 500 rounds of mini seasons or to be a fake stock trader 24/7 flipping for pennies. Flooding the game with earnable stubs is the only answer.

Lol nobody winning any of their Esports tourneys this year is a NMS player. And everything else you said is also disingenuous. If you start the game today, you literally have a built in advance of all the previous XP to use for the current program other people have used already. It’s like a phone service where new customer get great deals to get roped in, and people who have been there for 10 years get nothing.
Once you do that, you are stuck in the trap of paying to keep up, or spending 8 hours a day flipping. Tired of reading nonsense like this from terrible players lmao

Then you are full of it. I did live series NMS and only about 89 pull I got was judge, never once flipped cards, and never went 10-0. You people complaining about lack of stubs and needing more stubs are disingenuous. You all just want MORE given to you and changing focus, instead of actually talking about REAL problems in this game. Like the fact it is completely RNG dependent and not consistent at all. The fact that SDS doesn't police or research cheating reports or put anti script software into there game. NO instead you cry about a fake problem that literally anyone who sat down and played for 2 hours would know is a false statement. I just played for 2 hours only ranked and went from 800 stubs to 20k. If I spent that same time on DQ or Mini seasons I'd be at 100+k.

You are not getting 100k for 2 hours of grinding unless you pull a high level card. If you do, good for you but that's not how it works for 99.9999% of the people that play this game.

We have just had different experiences I guess.
