Yep, so did the Maserati. Those pictures were taken last week but I'm just now posting them up.

 

finally got the Forza whos gonna play online today ?

 

Oh My Gawd!


P.S The LP670-4 SV is an absolute dream to drive! It definitely revs much higher than the normal LP and handles like a dream!

 

^

I downgraded my old GT500 to an "A" class while the new one is a "S" class

And yes the LP670 is amazing to say the least. Mine is already a Level 5.

PS...where have you been man? I haven't seen you post here or be on Forza in forever.

 

never hire a driver. ugh.

 

I've been so swamped with work lately I barely have time to play.

 

built an R3 m/// yesterday to realize its impossible to control. the RWD cars are such a piece of shit in this game

 

add some camber, get upgrades for the suspension (sway bars, suspension, etc) and also add in some Race tires. I built myself an RWD R3 997 GT2 and it's gotten pretty easy to control with those upgrades. Even with street tires it isn't that bad...

 

I don't plan on it. Did your guy lose?

I hear you on that man. I play maybe an hour or two a week now. School is taking over my life

Well since I got the new car pack, I took the new Zonda R out for a bit, and I couldn't keep that bitch straight on the track. I would get on the gas and the back end would just go stupid.

I'm a bitch and turn on the traction control whenever I use a higher class RWD car

 

I like to drift around the track unintentionally. It is a big hard to control a FR car when you get into S-Classes, especially if it's a car that initially was lower, like a B or A-class. But its so much fun to drive a RWD car without TC on with the steering wheel.... I'm contemplating selling it though

I haven't played this game in ages though damn MW2

 

I haven't played in well over a month.

Although, I did finally finish Halo 2.

 

^I always overcompensate when drifting and the back end just kicks around

Maybe I'm struggling because it's harder with a controller?

And I have yet to get MW2 and don't plan on it

 

Just now finishing Halo 2?

 

im in halo 3 most of my time and none of you fuckers wanna join up with me. how am i supposed to have fun if my friends wont play with me

 

Yeah, I let it languish for a long time. Now I can start on 3 soon.

Right now, I'm finally getting started with KOTOR II.

 

halo 2 and 3 were total let downs

 

As long as the controller sensitivity is set right I usually find it easier to manage over steer with it than with a wheel. I think it's much easier to go from lock to lock and catch the car before it goes too far, but I can't race a oval track in forza to save my life.

In the gt5 prologue the controller steering acceleration was set up to ease into a corner very slowly but snap back quickly if you were in the middle of a turn. It worked much better for me on long sweeping turns, but going from one game to the other nearly drove me insane. Luckily the new 370z demo is set up in a way I'm accustomed to.

 

Cochese, KOTOR II was a great game. You'll like it if that's your kind of game

Oversteering is easy to manage, you just have to balance the use of the gas and use touch and precision with the steering to gradually countersteer. When the rear starts coming around just ease up on the countersteer a little bit and maybe add throttle to maintain the drift. If its not coming around enough, either more steering angle and/or gas.

 

x2 to whats above. i often drift just enough in turns. my car slides a bit and i get no points because its such a small bit of controlled drift

 

I have given up at drifting

 

I probably should have posted this when it started but I forgot.

Forza and Jalopnik are teaming up to make some new car packs.

Here is the initial post.

Here are the results of the first run. There will be more voting to do though, so get your voice in there!

 

^Damn that's awesome! So that car pack is now downloadable? Or they are going to make the cars now and then have them available for download later in the year?

 

^ i hope they're going put the Acura CL Type S :P in 6 speed

 

^That would be awesome! If they added the 03 CL-S 6-speed and the 08 TL-S 6-speed I would be ecstatic!

 

Not available yet. I assume once they have the cars eliminated to a certain amount they will begin production.

 

^Good. I'm looking forward to seeing some new cars.

 

...and the winners are:

I would have included the Dacia Sandero or the Dacia 1310 into that list...

 

It's a good choice of cars but some of them I'm about.

 

I like all the choices, but I wonder how you go about getting the rights to the AMC javelin amx.

 

^Very true.

 

no the fackin driver took more than half of the winnings. i was pissed. i shouldve done it myself.

 

^Ew that blows. I've never hired to do a race for me and I don't plan on it.

 

Time for some new pictures!

Turn 10 sent me these two cars:





I bought this:





Drove this:



Test drove this 825hp beast that does 130 in 2nd gear:



And in proper NASCAR fashion, I rolled it:

 

How did you get the gifted cars? new DLC pack bonus?

 

I have no idea. I got the new DLC over a week ago and was gifted those two cars yesterday. I got to the Career Home Screen and I was prompted in the message thing that I was gifted two cars

 

Right when I was about to get back into some Forza 3....this happened...


So addicting...

 

^I've never played the first one. I'm assuming it's good?

 

The first one was good, but this one is amazing. Gametrailers.com gave it a 9.7/10

 

^Damn that's impressive. If I for some reason ever stop playing Forza, I may have to pick that up
