Anyone playing Forza Motorsports? - Click HERE for Original Thread

scooby_dooby
This game is freakin awesome, GT4 is now #2.

I love the possiblity of engine swaps, I've always wondered what a CRX feels like with an H22 swap...now I know, well..not really but it's still pertty neat.

Anyone got this yet??

cparkq
ah i wanted to rent it before i bought it but no video stores have it yet

How much is it to buy? Hows the availability?

v8killah
This game is absolutly unreal!

GT4 Has nothing on this haha

scooby_dooby
ya this is a GT killer for sure, amazing game, I love the handling so realistic...

Just did an engine swap for my CRX, turbo charged H22a, even with only a stage 2 turbo it has insance power, I go full throttle maybe 15% of the race, the thing's a little rocket....

v8killah
this game is awesome i love it, real world bodykits from jun, top secret, re anemiya, saleen, the list goes on.

i just swapped a 3 rotor into my rx-7..... don't do it u cant control this thing.

hey does anyone have any good setups for drift or grip?

also some tips on paint customization would be nice.

92exrcoupe
where did you guys get it?
futureshop website says release date is may 9th?

92exrcoupe
nevermind, i cant read, westside fs has it
thanks

Keith303
bought mine today, last copy at futureshop

Mustard
we've had them for a while... and still do
(Microplay)
Rentals as well...

just fyi

Keith303
im at level 7 right now, got a 430hp talon awd, all weight reduction done. it flys and handles great with being able to pull of drifts like a rwd

Billy
I started my career on Saturday. I've got a CRX with all weight reduction and an H22A. It's at about 294hp and 250ish torque. This thing hauls ass. Only weighs 1867lbs.

scooby_dooby
did you turbocharge it yet? look out no wonder they call this thing a pocket rocket.

right now I'm on level 21, started last sunday, frakin game is addicting. I just won B class with the skyline, took me forever to find a car that could beat that damn Stealth R/T while staying in the B division.

workin on winning A-class now, probably just upgrade the skyline to take A as well, such a good all around car.

btw, if anyone's interested there's a small cheat to make money for free, it doesn't level up your game or unlock anything, so it's not too bad, just lets you have a big wad so you can experiment without worrying about going broke.

Whats the cheat?

No. I want to do little things and just keep moving it up in class right now. It's in the A class for now and can hold its own, but I may have to try a different car soon.

It takes about 80g's to do but then you can make a couple million in about 5 minutes.

Buy a VW GLX,
Goto engine upgrades and buy every single engine upgrade EXCEPT the engine swap.

Make sure to buy all levels of every upgrade, not just the Stage 3's.

Then goto the engine swap, and buy the bigger engine. It's $2500. Then equip your original engine and sell the bigger one, it sells for $45,000. Then you can buy it again for $2500, equip original, and sell again for $45,000 over and over.

It's a bug where even though the engine upgrades are supposed to dissapear when swapping engine, the game still sells the engine as if it was fully upgraded.

Just remember this won't advance your game, it's just to give you more play money.

I started playing on friday have not gotten to far (lv 8) in cause with first couple cash i just bought my car and now i am upgrading it almost identical minus engine mods to my real life car i kinda like how they have proper manufactures for car parts like racing beat is mazda thing and same as corksport nice to see the realism with upgrages.

and i guess i will drive that rx7 till my real life car is done being put together.

scooby_dooby
thing about his game is you can't really have one car, the categories are way too specific.

v8killah
f355 challenge owns the a class

beatshack
yeah, i actually bought this game (modded xbox, so i didn't HAVE to but..)

and i love it! i think i'm level 13 right now with the following cars:

650hp golf r32
550hp ae86 gt apex (can't keep it straight! :D)
750hp 240sx
450hp mugen s2000
650hp teg type R

the only thing i like better about GT4 is the selection of cars. other than that, this game kicks ass :)

scooby_dooby
Anyone manage to get a car into the 7 or 8 second club on the 1/4 mile? It's damn hard...

beatshack
i still havent even managed to make a 9 second car! also has anyone noticed some off the drag times are off? eg. an srt-4 should be able to do almost 14 flat, but on the game i can only get it to do around 14.5.. tried lots of different setups, with TCS, without, etc etc

midnite
sounds like i need to play this game.

scooby_dooby
ya i find i get better times with manual, but it is very hard to get cars to run their stock times,

scooby_dooby
Does anyone else find themselves driving faster/tighter on the way to work now that they've got this game?

I have like this ucontrollable urge to hit the apex on every corner....

beatshack
ever since gran turismo 2.. :)

Transporter
where do u drag race?

Keith303
goto free run section and its the track on the very end.

beatshack
just made my first 9 second car... 9.416 to be exact

its a Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS, (the older flat-lights gen).. its acceleration is rated at 10.0

just buy the best engine for it, buy everything for it completely, set your camber to 0.1 degress on all wheels, set limited slips to 0% on front and back, tire pressure to 34 psi.

lovemytrx
Finished the arcade version and I'm on level 41 of the career. I'm slightly obsessed.:D

Billy
^^^^^:lol:

I was told I was obsessed when I finally hit lvl 32 last night. Haven't played much recently though. Too much baseball playing.



I'm currently stuck trying to win 'S' Class. Can't find a car that can outrun that annoying ME 412. Drives me nuts.

lovemytrx
Ive used all 3 of these to win the S class, Koenigsegg CC
Subaru STI C and Tommy Kaira R 34, all of them modded to the max of course for the S class.

I'm at level 45 in this game. My favorite car is still the F355 challenge, even though its not even close to being as fast as some of my other cars. A highly recomended game.

xbox live is fun too.

SilviaDrifter
who wants to play some live tonight

add me my tag is turbocharged11

newtuner
Ok when the hell are they going to put this out on PS2:mad: Sounds like a crazy game. Ever since Need for Speed underground came out I haven't been able to play the GT games anymore.

haha PS2 yea right.....microsoft produced teh game hahaa

newtuner
I thought I have seen some games from Micro go to both. Shit Bill Gates can't turn down money. Just a matter of time.

SilviaDrifter
noo really...there is no microsoft games on PS2 haha...

beatshack
yeah there isnt any MS games on SONY's ps2. Microsoft loses money on the console and gets all its money back from games, same with sony... so microsoft wouldn't make games for sony to profit from.

BUT!

good news xboxers, final fantasy 11 is coming out for xbox :)

i guess Bill Gates slipped Square a roofie.. heheh

lovemytrx
All levels done and 82% complete on career and 100% on arcade.:D

beatshack
does completing arcade races unlock cars for career? if it doesn't i probably wont bother with arcade mode.

Billy
Yes it does.

lovemytrx
94.6% on career done 228/231 cars unlocked.

beatshack
haha you guys are hardcore!

the game does get more fun once you are forced into C and B classes etc.. very competitive...

SilviaDrifter

lovemytrx
98.9% done on the arcade and I missed one track for gold so I have to back and redo that series to get my 100%

scooby_dooby
you're nutz. I can understand thoug this game is addictive as hell.

So what everyone's favourite ride so far?

I gotta give it up to the Bentley #7, this car is amazing.

Silvai..no live for me, my XBOX is a little different than most, they would ban my ass.

SilviaDrifter
hey mang u can get a switch u know that right...my old xbox was modded with a chip and live....until it blew up lol

beatshack
not all chips have switches.. the old school ones never did. if you modded your xbox in the last 2 years, chances are you have one.

scooby_dooby
i have a softmod, just hook ed it up to my pC, copied some files, done like dinner....ok it was a little harder than that ;)

But ya...no live for moi....That's ok, i can wait till Nov...xbox360 :blue: :blue:
