Sunday Punch posted:Well I haven't heard anything from GAME since placing my preorder so I'm hoping no news is good news. Only three days left for them to run out of stock anyway. I have also preordered through GAME, see what happens over the next couple of days

Been playing multiplayer with friends for 4 solid hours. Love this game, really surprised how the lap times are slower, probably because of the new tyre physics and the fact we were racing stock cars. Just drive the XB Falcon around the Top Gear track. Loved the exhaust note on it, exactly like a big port 351  Sunday Punch: When I picked up the game from GAME, they mentioned it was cheaper than what I preordered it for, so gave me credit at their store for the difference.

How are people getting decals/vinyls on their headlights? I tried doing it with a Ford Ka, but the manufacturer logos wont cover them, they go invisible over the headlights.

Brainwrong posted:2 hours in and I love the AI / difficulty. I'm actually having close races, on at least 3 occasions it's come down to the last corner of the last lap. Really? So far in my career mode the AI has been as dumb as a box of hammers, and there doesn't seem to be a setting in the Difficulty menu to make them harder/smarter.

Brace posted:Yeah, even though I'm loving up with it(obviously) it's so much nicer to be able to get through a corner without having to kill the breaks, and coming out of a corner and dusting every other car on the track is great. Most corners are second or third gear. Keep to that rule and you'll have 95% of corners worked out. Also the things that slow down and stop your car are called brakes

I can't believe how much fun the Top Gear track is. Was racing against a friend and AI last night, he was in a V12 Aston Martin Vantage, me in a Ferrari 360 (modded to be at the top of A class) and we were having a great time. Especially once you have worked out how to attack the follow through and the corner after it.

 John Goss' Bathurst winning Falcon from 1974. Even though it was an XA model that won it, I can not find wheels in Forza to suit the XB model, so have started on the earlier one instead. Work in progress at the moment.  This is the original car You Am I fucked around with this message at 13:18 on Oct 19, 2011 |

Revolvyerom posted:I'm aware, I've played Forza since it's first game's inception, several other series along the way, have a wheel I could hook up that seems best suited for it, and have several years of open-track and autocross under my belt. I'll just fart around with the deadzone settings a bit, it may be that it's too high, so by the time the wheel starts to turn, I'm already cranked too far over on the thumbstick. I have had no need to screw around with the advanced settings for the controller in Forza. Maybe try another controller with your XBox, the controller you are currently using might be faulty or wearing out.

The little A class Peugeot rally car, with slicks on it, is one of the best cars to race around the Top Gear track with. Flat out through the follow through and tyres, even people who I was racing with said I had balls of steel

Done some more work on the Goss Bathurst winning Falcon. Thanks to Sunday Punch and others in this thread for tips and ideas. Still work in progress:  Took me ages to do the old school Bridgestone logo shields for the headlights, and the hockey stick strips for the side

They said they'd post a couple more but it's been a while and I haven't seen any other ones pop up yet. Dar-rool. Can't wait to run that track. I hope they bring out some old 1970s Australian Group C Touring cars for it
