Since we can't put cars in the garage with graphics we didn't create ourselves, please tell me that Sunday Punch made it into the LLJK group. If he didn't, that's a real travesty. Also, we should start thinking about how members get culled. We've filled up the club, but I'm sure that not all 100 members will still be playing Forza 4 in a month -- or even still own it. In the meantime, there will be new members wanting to join, and it sucks to leave a valuable, contributing member out when there are members who will never show up again. The 100 member limit sucks. My initial idea is to simply recreate the group each month. Those that are still playing or who want to keep playing will find the new group here and join. The members who don't care get culled. But I think that would wipe out any recognition our group earns over time and that kind of sucks. Off topic, I'll go pull my cars out of the garage tonight. I don't think there's anything exclusive that I've shared.

Replace the minigun with the spoiler from that ridiculous theoretical Red Bull F1 car in GT5, problem solved. The Warthog is supposed to be adaptable to any situation after all! einTier posted:Also, we should start thinking about how members get culled. Start checking gamercards after a few weeks and anyone who hasn't been online in a while gets kicked seems like the best plan, there's four people who are capable of removing inactive members. Making a whole new group every month is just going to cause confusion and fragment everyone even more then they already are. We have LLJK, GISH as a secondary, and I guess also GTCC but I dunno if that's for serious racing only or what. Plus there will be Euro goon groups by the weekend as well.

Get your asses to GTCC people, they've got insane hybrids over there too! And looks like only 24 members at current, so plenty of room! It'd be nice if we had a way to track other clubs specifically to make it easier to keep tabs on each other. Scrolling through the leaderboards is a pain.

BlazeKinser posted:We can definitely live without the standard prize cars and F200 cars since pretty much everyone has those. I'd also ask folks to make sure the cars they share are actually driveable, because maxed out econoboxes that can't turn or brake or do anything but ricochet off a wall at 200mph are just a waste of space. The problem I have is that I can't find anywhere how to share anything other than cars with the club. I'd love to just make designs and vinyl groups because I can't tune for poo poo, but it seems that the club sharing is only for other people to take out a car, drive it, and put it back. Is there a hidden "upload design to club" option somewhere? Why the hell would Forza 4 let you create a club, share cars, create a RIVALS section for "Graphic Desginer" (with "score" whatever the gently caress that is), but not let you trade and share vinyl and paint schemes? I'll pull the Goonbus and Hello Jeep from the garage if you don't want them taking up space.

And to be honest, painting a Hummer like a school bus is actually quite brilliant. I just didn't want people sharing their entire garages and having a billion standard prize cars and rocket powered beer cans in there making it impossible to find the stuff that people put a lot of effort into.

At bare minimum - we should all check and see that we're not adding a car that'd already there (unless it's a very different paint/tune). I think adding the unicorns was a good idea but there are way too much reward cars in there. I'm guilty of adding one or two the first day - I'll clean my room after work. did anyone test that shared pre-order cars work?

Holy loving poo poo this game is awesome. I spent a good chunk of time the other night trying to best the SIARPIC track time (last I checked I was 0.062s below fatrick). I'm going to have to try out the car soccer though for sure. Is there anyway to paint your car flat black? I want to re-create my dream garage first before I start going nuts and making ludicrous paint schemes

We had a fun time in LLJK last night with "Hummers vs X" physics experiments. An Elise can not push one off the track, and will get sent airborne if rammed from behind while trying to navigate a turn. The bus design is in the storefront under "goonbus" for the description. It's free. Slap it on and school some pubbies. Cactachair fucked around with this message at 18:21 on Oct 13, 2011 |

Jalopnik seems to be working on another community pack for this game; I'm hoping for more mid- to late-'70s "performance" cars like the Chevy Monza (Google Dekon Monza if you're unfamiliar) and the AMC Spirit AMX. Some Can-Am prototypes would be awesome as well.

^ The Syclone's already in, IIRC. The Lightning wouldn't be too bad, or at least it's no worse than the Saleen F150 and Ram SRT8 they already have. The rest would be awful, even as comedy options.

So Best Buy charged me $8.44 to send me some terrible stupid Forza 4 fuzzy dice that I didn't want. Because they cancelled my LCE on launch day and had already shipped the dice, suddenly I'm responsible for the charges on the "Free" giveaway. gently caress best buy forever is what I'm saying. They also never sent me my 1M code.

Buick Skylarks! old-rear end Ford Rangers old-rear end Chevy S-10s! Nissan pulsar (I think it was) Geo Storms! Dodge Shadow! Dodge Daytona! Pontiac Le Mans! These are all the cars you wish you could have raced with your friends but never could because although gas was still under a dollar, you made poo poo for money and could only afford neons or bass!
