    Do they just help you unlock things faster? I am ok with if it so. I will not purchase any of them, but if someone will more power to them.

    I cannot take microtransactions that are part of the game. If they are in the case, I agree with the term gross.

      Eh, they were there in Horizon 2 and Forza 5 and I just ignored them. I never felt that I must buy coins to enjoy either game so I really don't see this as that big of a deal.

        Never used them in FH2, doubt I will in F6 either unless there's something I absolutely want, and don't want to wait to unlock it. Chances of that though, are slim to none.

        I find both titles to be fair at handing out credits to use in the in game economy. Plus, that's the whole point of playing racing games like this, to keep driving in order to earn the credits you need to purchase new vehicles etc.

        I can also honestly say, I've never used a single mod pack in F6, unless it was that one race that was essentially a tutorial on them that made you use one just to learn about it. I don't like them. Just throw me in the car, let me have fun.

        As long as the game is "fair" with it's own currency system to advance, I couldn't care less about these microtransactions. The fact I can disable the game from showing them to me, is even better. Kudos to T10 for that.

          It's more about the principal of the thing. Turn 10's big brag pre-release was that they went back to their roots and removed things like Microtransactions. They are quoted as saying "the only way microtransactions come back to Forza is if the players ask for them."

          Bull**** that anyone or anything even close to a majority opinion asked for these. Sales have sucked, and they need a way to milk some more money out of the title. That's what happened.

          I get it. Companies need to make money. But just give me the real reason behind doing so. I wasn't born yesterday, lol. No one "asked" for this.

            I think you'd be surprised. There's people, that would want this. Some people want to play every aspect of the game, have the credits to buy cars etc at will without having to play long periods of time to be able to do so. Some would rather just cough up a few bucks and get whatever they want, whenever they want it.

            It's the reason so many pay to play mobile games exist. People buy their way through free to play games all day long on mobile platforms because they're impatient, the same applies to some console users too. I guarantee it.

            Maybe you're right, but I think you'd be surprised what people would do.

              A couple of buddies of mine swear by microtransactions. In NBA 2K they buy vc to level up their player with out having to grind for it or in GTA they buy shark cards so they don't have to grind missions for money. I don't blame them for it and it doesn't bug me one bit. Like I said if the microtransactions affect you being able to progress in a game like some games out there than yeah that would be upsetting. With Forza though it doesn't affect progression that I've ever seen so I don't see why people would get all worked up about this.
