Also whoever was having blu ray problems try playing without the disk. May be a bug but this guy with a disk can play without it even after reinstalling. http://forums.forzamotorsport.net/turn10_postsm625327_Playing-FH3--physical-copy--on-the-console-without-inserting-the-disc.aspx#post_625327

Count Freebasie posted:So, I bought FM6 after having bought FH3 a while ago. Pretty good game, but it seems like the FM6 AI in every race is attempting to do the PIT maneuver on me. Hopping between these games is a bit tricky, especially the noticeable differences in handling of the same car ('93 SVT Cobra; I use that as my litmus test, mainly because it looks like my Mustang and I'm familiar with how that car handles). The handling is waaaay different between games. The tunes I made and have been using the last 14+ months in FM6 don't translate well to FH

Sebastian Flyte posted:I have played over 200 hours of TDU2 and I don't know how many hours in various NFS games. Hoarding and upgrading a ton of cars is what Forza Horizon 3 is all about. Racing too, if you also like that. The actual driving is quite a lot better than TDU2. FH3 feels more fake-ish for the populated and green areas. The outback is nice.

Mr.PayDay posted:How long will take the campaign to be completed? After that it is freeroam and race events and festivals SP and MP or are there still SP "missions"? I can't say how long it took me to finish unlocking and upgrading the festival sites, and finding all the barn finds, because I did a lot of side activities. Maybe it takes 15 - 20 hours to get all the festival sites to level 5, and after that it is just "do whatever remaining map icons you want in whatever order you like." And there is a whole lot of stuff to complete, if you are a completionist... In addition to that, there are regular Forzathon events, which are a handful of specific challenges set by Playground Games that run for a couple of days, and where you can usually unlock some specific car.

Combat Pretzel posted:The city and village parts in TDU2 felt pretty awesome and natural. In my opinion that's because they've cloned the actual layout or at least adhered as much as possible, instead of trying to create some fantasy towns. The roads inbetween were so-so, at least on Ibiza. Worked better on Hawaii, except for the highways. Yeah the world environment of TDU2 was pretty special to drive around in, even if it was sometimes a little empty and sterile outside of the towns. But what I actually meant by the driving being better than TDU2 was the "being behind the steering wheel" experience in FH3. As in the immersion of being inside a car and experiencing the handling and the sounds and whatnot. Sebastian Flyte fucked around with this message at 00:03 on Dec 16, 2016 |

geeves posted:The handling is waaaay different between games. The tunes I made and have been using the last 14+ months in FM6 don't translate well to FH I'm not sure if it is still the case today, but in FH1, the handling differences were literally just due to the tires having a huge grip modifier. Some dudes hacked the game and found that FM4 tires were actually in the game hidden away, so they slapped them on the cars and they handled more or less identically to how they did in FM4 (with some small degree of inaccuracy due to the 30FPS vs. FM4's 60). I kinda wish they had a 'sim' handling mode which would just straight-up give you handling from the main Forza games in Horizon. Some people might not love it, and hell maybe I'd be one of them, but it'd be nice if it were a thing.

I dont remember which one it was but i remember people putting drag or dirt tires on cars would have more realistic grip levels. I feel like cockpit cam has more movement in fh3, so its hard for me to tell whats different other than grip levels but i dig the camera in this one. Ive also noticed the diffs are completely different to set up in fh3 compared to 6. Like identical settings will give wildly different results between the two games. Unrelated but Blizzard mountain does snow better than steep which is pretty impressive. Not sure about the physics but the visuals are better.

Well I was going to try finishing Witcher 3 today but now I'm going to have to fire this up instead edit: aaaaaand got it. Chumping street racers in the Class 10 feels good. I also just bumped up to highly skilled difficulty, and my first race was the Skyline View Circuit, raining like a motherfucker, in the #199 WRX VT15r. That was one tense, slidey loving race Goddamn the Gurkha gives no fucks and will happily push another car in front of it sideways while doing a buck ten

Seems kinda crazy to me because your garage fills up pretty drat quick and the super expensive stuff isnt really competitive anyways. Id much rather be able to just buy the forza editions of cars or something. Also if you are spending money dlc cars are free in game so why not just get one of those?

For those that don't know, double tapping the white glowing X on the pad, followed by pressing Y will take a high quality png screenshot, instead of the lovely jpg the in game photocamera uses. The in game photocamera, when taking a photo DOES render it at a higher quality than normal though, so I do that then instead of saving the photo, I take a screenshot of the photo  (then cut out the forza logo, resize, etc)You can then find them on your DVR app listed under "on this xbox". Normally it automatically also uploads it to "on xbox live" for you, which you can then download via https://account.xbox.com/en-GB/screenshots Ak Gara fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Dec 18, 2016 |

Does the windows version have that neat feature where when you've spent an hour designing a livery, you have a 50% chance of crashing suddenly as you go to save? I love that feature.

welp, attempting to play this via steamlink failed horribly. I was able to (partially) navigate the menus but could not control the car. Then there's the rigmarole to even get the shortcut in Steam to begin with, which took some google fu and faffing around with creating a shortcut to something else then overwriting the launch path and whatnot with the string someone else had found. Very disappointed

Now that football is nearly finished, I'm going to setup a quick 5-week M3 season to start in late January. The season will start with the E30 and end with the E92. 5th week will be your pick of M3 possibly at the full Nurburgring, Le Mans w/chicanes or VIR East/West. The Porsche pack will also be required (sorry poors) because VIR will be one of the stops and racing on it is awesome.
*I may change the Tune requirement so you can build your own (no 3rd party tunes) or use mine. This might give a little bit of variety in pit stop strategy depending on your engine. The tunes I've created have minimal changes to the default tune. Tire Pressure, Ride Height, ARB, Aero... Mostly to help with mid-corner understeer.
