I've been playing quite a bit recently, working my way through the bucket list challenges. Once I complete all the main stuff I'm gonna buy the Storm Island DLC

Yeah, unless it's changed the XP ladder resets every week. I intend to complete all the Championships at all the locations. I have a chart to help me plan that out. I have viable cars for every championship and have used them to get the "Multi-disciplined" achievement awhile ago. Storm Island distracted me from the goal and it's a really great add-on for just  (if you have FH2 VIP). Also, I have the Season Pass so I'm looking forward to the next car pack.I have had very little time for gaming due to holiday volume at work, but I'll be back. Things will settle down sometime in January, with spikes for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, and my day-shift counterpart comes back from three weeks' vacation next Tuesday (been doing the work of two people since the 15th.) What little time I've had to turn the console on I've used to gain new abilities/runes in Shadow of Mordor, because the more stuff there is to do the more impressed I am with the combat system. Hell, the stealth is very forgiving and rewarding, too, if you're patient. If Batman (Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, etc.) is anything like this then I understand why people like them so much, and I'll be needing to try them. Incidentally, I made just enough money from the Christmas pay period to order my new home theater receiver (it ships today!) I've been without surround sound for far too long (and that's why I haven't jumped on anybody's used racing wheels). I can't wait to rev up some engines in 7.1 (but I'll have to be extra nice to my neighbors to prepare). By all means, you should build up your friends list from the club roster, because even if those folks have moved on they still probably have lots and lots of Rivals times for you to beat!

Now I'll have 7 HDMI ins (I think four are 3D/4K ready), WiFi, Bluetooth, a remote contol app, DNLA streaming, good stuff. I just need to buy one more satellite speaker for the high center channel and I'll be set for awhile to come.

How's the activity here vs. FM5? I got both for Xmas so I finally bought a 'bone over the weekend. I have a ControllerMAX on order with the hopes of making my CSR wheel useful, but I'm playing gamepad for now so I'm hoping FH2 is where more of the action is since that's a lot less dependent on the wheel.

You're probably going to be disappointed with the controller max. I have one and tried it and it's not very good. It just emulates a stick so it's super non linear. You might be able to dial it out somewhat Wii uh the fanatec settings but I gave up on it pretty quickly

Just picked this up with DLC, how much do I have to play before all features unlock? I'm only used to the proper Forza games. I'll also join the car club as AdamH1mself when I unlock the feature.

I know the game isn't very populated by goons anymore, but I just wanted to say all are still welcome. I'm playing today and I'll challenge your rivals times if you're active. I'm thinking I want to finish the main championships before I go full Storm Island.

Just friend one of the club leaders and you can join. GutBomb303 Captain Howdy 0 (that's me) Whatcubed3 MacClay Welcome to GRC! Activity is down because there are so many great XBox One games out (when I play, which is rare these days due to work and other stuff, I usually am playing Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor) but you can have a lot of fun doing championships and I recommend that any time you see a [GRC] rival pop up after a race, beat them. It's fun and you learn the courses better! I want to thank Molghandi for setting rivals times for me. At least someone cares! Dr. Faustus fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Jan 25, 2015 |

I am very excited about this and I dont care who knows it. I hope it includes a whole new area and isnt just a car/mission pack but for 10 bucks its hard to tell. edit - well I just googled where the movie takes place and Europe wasnt mentioned anywhere so I guess maybe there will be a new area? I am interested to learn more. WinnebagoWarrior fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Feb 25, 2015 |

GentlemanofLeisure posted:Well, a line in the press release says "Players will take part in a series of thrilling car challenges set in the idyllic south of France, challenges inspired by both the Fast & Furious films and Forza’s legendary gameplay." so I wouldn't bet on getting any new map areas. Also it's being released for free for the first two weeks, so if you act fast, you won't have to part with your yeah, I watched the trailer last night and saw that it was the same map. Too bad, but the free for 2 weeks owns super hard to I will check it out.
