It should have been: Camaro: Available in 4 cylinder, 6 cylinder Camaro Z/28: Twin turbo 6, 1LE Package standard, optional radio, AC and carpet. Camaro SS: Pretty much as it is, N/A LT1 v8 Camaro ZL-1: Supercharged LT1, Some kind of drag racing package like the "Cobra jet" new mustangs. Should be sprayed from the factory.

LOL, if you start in the back of C class you can back up into the starting line of B class. I guess you can probably do it from b class into a as well.

Anyone around during the weekends? I never see anyone online. During the week my time has become limited due to work and life :/ Which sucks because I am missing out on GTCC. Tomorrow being Cinco de Mayo, I doubt I'll be on tomorrow. Weekends I'm usually able to carve out a few hours on Saturday and Sunday while the GF watches Pitch Perfect 2-like movies. So question is does anyone want to go and take over a public hopper unless we have enough to race in a private lobby? I think it would be great for us to be in the ABC'S and basically just take control of it so we can vote for good tracks and most likely win each class.

I'm usually doing something or other on Xbox Live on the weekends. If you see me online, throw me an invite; even if I'm not playing Forza at the time, I'll probably still join (unless I'm playing Bad Company 2).

All my free time is consumed with watching baseball, NBA playoffs and NHL playoffs. In the summer I'll be playing Forza again.

Forza Apex is available on the microsoft store. It's forza. The actual gameplay is good but they need to take a hint from other PC racing games. A straight port of the console mentality isn't going to fly. Being forced into a first race in baby mode and unskippable cutscenes is not something PC racers will accept. I can see why they would do it on a console, it might be someone's first time playing a racing game. I doubt anyone with a gaming PC that's interested in racing games is going to be unaware how to control a race car.

If you already own Forza 6 on Xbox One then there's not a lot of point in bothering with Apex. It's just a crippled version of the console game. If Microsoft considers releasing the full version eventually and I don't have to double dip on buying everything then I will switch over to playing Forza on PC. Hopefully Horizon 3 will be on PC.

Noooo, why do we need NASCAR? edit: Will it include the #88 Nationwide Insurance Chevy Super Sport? edit: Apparently it's coming with Homestead Miami. Well, at least that's a new roval. L_Harrison fucked around with this message at 18:55 on May 7, 2016 |

Homestead is also the best roval.

I'd like a NASCAR expansion pack a lot more if it had historic cars instead of just the current season. They've already got Formula 1 cars from multiple eras in the vanilla game after all. I guess you can sort-of simulate it as they used to actually be stock cars, so just using a Plymouth Superbird and painting it light blue and slapping a 43 on it would suffice.

I'm interested in a NASCAR expansion. Watching NASCAR is like watching paint dry but oval racing is fun to do. It's complexities don't really come through for me yon watching on tv but they come out when playing a game. Also looking forward to another oval for the IndyCars.

Yeah, but it will be fragmented like VIR, which is a shame because VIR is really awesome and I wish it was in hopper and league rotation.

It's a shame VIR isn't one of those DLCs where you can race it if the league lands on it but not host it on your own. Leagues need more track variety; I already feel like Monza full is some kind of rare treat whereas in contact leagues the lobby empties like it's on fire every time it loads Nurburgring night/rain.

Really any tri-oval is a sort of roval, the corners are just massive and need slow, gradual lines. :sperg: I happened upon this youtube video, we should probably re-create this race at homestead-miami (my local track!!!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHnGd6RV8IE MattD1zzl3 fucked around with this message at 03:20 on May 8, 2016 |

Shumagorath posted:the lobby empties like it's on fire every time it loads Nurburgring night/rain. Nurburgring has always been a lobby killer to be honest. You can start with 24 people but by the end of the race there will be like 12 people racing. And nobody stays to wait until the race is starting because they don't know if they will be waiting 10 minutes for the race to finish or 2 minutes because the laps just say 0/1 for the whole race.

They have explicitly said they will be. Nothing said about Horizons so will have to wait a month for E3 to get more information about Forza this year. This is good as im not buying a Bone for any price and miss the Forza games.

I had the pleasure of running the Rio National Circuit on the ABCS lobby. That might be the worst track for ABCS. Everybody fucks up on that narrow downhill section and all the classes end up trying to get through the tiny 2 lane funnel on the first lap at the same time. I raged quit instead of saving the replay, but it was very bad. I did some races on the full circuit and it wasn't as bad, that little mountain bit is enough to slow people down enough to get through it.

I thought the wording was really vague and it wasn't really confirmed one way or the other that this was going to happen. It'll be interesting to see how Forza 6 does on PC if it really happens. I am not fully convinced PC gamers are going to accept this game. It won't have a lot of the features that PC racing sim fans demand.
