quackman posted:Apparently that's at least in part due to people not being able to pay and download the pack at all. There are a few threads on the official Forza forums about this. They are deleting any threads that mention the free download. I paid for the pack, and was able to grab it just fine.

The F class cars are the highlight of this pack. I've been wanting to add more F class cars to my garage, and this pack was perfect for that.

Which is why I suspect they'll have some retroactive removal of cars from people's garages. Doubt they'd go as far as XBL bans but they have done it before for credits related exploits.

Well, I made a point to buy every car in the pack just in case. If suddenly I can't drive one, then I'll gladly pay my 560 points.

I bought everything in game (except the Venom because gently caress that guy) this morning before leaving for work. If they get yanked, so be it. I'll fork of the 560 space bucks without batting an eye.

Part of me doesn't think that they will pull it, just because it only affects season pass holders, but I could be wrong. I have 560 waiting just in case.

I've got 10% to go  e: it worked! ee: 264mph down Old Mulsanne in the stock Venom. LOL. speedtek fucked around with this message at 21:13 on May 1, 2012 |

Scirocco Griffon posted:but you can't swap a Hemi V8 into the Wrangler, which actually has been done by a couple tuning companies already? Booooooo. Not just a couple. Literally anyone with a rented engine hoist and a weekend with basic hand tools can do the swap. I've got an 08 Rubicon and I'm currently trying to decide between the Hemi swap, or a supercharger kit. Both cost about the same, the Hemi gets the same day to day mileage as the 3.8L currently in my jeep but adds 190 horsepower. The supercharger increases fuel mileage by about 3mpg, is lighter, but only adds about 100rwhp. I'm also doing King coilovers and some axle bracing, basically building a prerunner setup that outperforms the Raptor, without spending 45,000 and is 1000lb lighter.

The venom is just retarded. Unless you plan on using it with traction control, it's undriveable. The only interesting thing about it is that if you rev it up and drop the clutch, you can go from 0-230 in fifth gear. If you get a running start you can go from 30-265 in sixth.

Kilonum posted:The real answer is supercharged Hemi V8. But I'm sure you already knew that. Its crossed my mind. I don't think I could use that much power in that vehicle. With the tire size etc I can't see the transmission living for very long. When I was going to buy the raptor u was going to have my ford tech friend do a Whipple install and dyno tune at the same time. 550 rwhp on pump gas in a long travel 6000lb truck would've been interesting. I may procharge or Whipple the 300c though.

Looks like they didn't fix the free pack, I had queued it up via the xbox.com link earlier today and it downloaded just fine and all the cars are there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZLS5jpue30&hd=1 Whoops...

I think it's cool that they're putting these stupidly overpowered cars in the game, but I wish they would have included some engine swaps as well since there's also a 700 horsepower version which would still be pretty difficult but maybe not quite as bad. I felt the same way about the Ultima, which also only got the megahuge engine version. real_scud posted:Looks like they didn't fix the free pack, I had queued it up via the xbox.com link earlier today and it downloaded just fine and all the cars are there. I just checked the game this afternoon and was able to buy all the cars from the queued up DLC download. I'm giving it like a 50% chance that they'll be deleted from my garage. I don't know how Turn 10 works though, sometimes it takes them weeks just to sort through who won their rivals contests. Fortuitous Bumble fucked around with this message at 00:10 on May 2, 2012 |

The funny thing is, you know if they fix this little issue and take the cars from anyone who got them free, there will be such a colossal shitstorm of mindblowing scale. "IT'S NOT OUR FAULT U FUKKED UP FUK U T10 THIS IS BULSHIT!"

It took me a second to realize that everything else in this video is not a F-class compact (I may have run a stock Transit in a F200 Euro career mode race this morning for shits and grins) but is actually a bunch of trucks and SUVs, and yet the Transit is still towering over them.

Same here, I thought the blue car dancing past the rolling Transit was a Mini or something compact.

I am pretty sure a Smart or Citroen C1 could fit in the Transit, and now I want to do that in the game. Like if you roll the van, the back hatch opens and you continue the race in a Smart. Cars within cars.

http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3482417 I made an AUGR club thread in Private Game servers. I will keep the original post updated with current spec racing information and stuff. It's also got a link to the AUGR member spreadsheet so pruning and adding more members will be more efficient. It would be cool if someone made a banner for the OP and some screenshots. Thank.

Now in my storefront, two locos for you silly train people. BNSF(though the one in the storefront has an F7 rear, and orange hood. The GEVOSPAM is my personal one.)  And ATSF(I need to add the choo choo to the visor.)  They even have fans and exhaust stacks.

So the weird free download bug still works. Just got my free pack. I've got my Van at a 275 and it is damned awesome. I need to find/make some liveries for it. Those trains are goddam awesome. I also grabbed a tune for tomorrow's Trans-Am race. The drag tires are loving ridiculous. I'm trying to forget everything I already know about Road America so I can actually hit my new braking points now. It's crazy.

Public lobbies are awesome. I didn't realize it was common practice in drift lobbies to stop at the finish line and let everyone else catch up/finish. I blasted across the line 2 or 3 times before they were fed up with only two people finishing the race. So when I did it again (in a S15 Silvia), they all started shouting, it's the S15 guy! So they kicked someone with "S15" in their GT.

Only in a Venom GT can you lose it on the Mulsanne straight, spin out of control, regain control and still be going 70mph.

CP Rail and CN Rail are also very large rail companies in North America. Both have rather simple colour schemes like Burlington Northern. Also don't forget Union Pacific.
