SimRacing General: successor to Forza/Gran Turismo/Racing thread
5,002 replies, posted
On Forza Horizon 3, I finished the last underground race against the Lambo in my Koenigsegg Regera with 65% difficulty.
Took the final corner poorly, but 403km/h on that last highway leg won me the race.
I had just bought the Veyron but didn't want to risk the loss.
Nice action shot of my Regera (One of my mates (AI) with a NSW highway patrol livery)

It's auto - I'd do manual w/clutch, but my G29 (PS) wheel won't map all the buttons on PC for some godforsaken reason.

Holy fuck did not expect this many entries haha. Sorry if I missed anyone, I just ctrl+f'd for 'POTW'.
Also note that the PC version of H3 has a bugged photomode where pics look blurry and upscaled so try to ignore that when choosing your fav.

Homologation specials are cool, but it'd be cool to get some versions of cars that people might have driven

That's one of the few things I prefer about Gran Turismo. They definitely have a wider variety of low end cars. My roommates and I used to race our actual cars against each other because they were all in the game.
Unfortunately I'm not sure how long that will be the case since most of the premium cars are race cars or supercars and I think they've said they're finally phasing out the PS2 Era cars.
Drove one of those Black Edition AMG Mercedes things in the rain just now. You can't go in a straight line with it. It's just [B]POWEEEERRRRR[/B] the whole time.
I've played like 3 hours today and it has crashed 4 times and hard reset my PC once, I'd like to refund cause I shouldn't be supporting such a broken product but what I have played is so much fun :v:
[del]amazing, all of the sudden the game crashes after Turn 10 logo. i do have my "mic" enabled. And it was running just fine with no crashes (well except gpu crashes that freeze my whole computer)[/del]
resetted my appdata in system settings. Now it works.

I'm in the same boat, I was trying to play last night and it crashed about 5 times within two hours, the worst it's ever been. On one side I feel bad for supporting something so broken but on the other hand this is the first time Turn10 has released something of this scale on PC so I've been giving them the benefit. Hopefully it all gets patched away within the month.
On another side this is the most fun I've had with a racing game in ages. :v:
i keep getting stuck in the auction house car preview all of a sudden, are the servers fucked?
[editline]3rd October 2016[/editline]
im not getting vip on my spins either
[t]http://i.imgur.com/CauUpHV.png[/t]
first time i got anything from this wheel thing that wasn't credits
I guess the winner will be picked tomorrow? If I forget feel free for someone else to do it and let the winner pick the theme but atm it's pretty close between Eddie and Dusty lol
is it worth saving for a forza edition car with a xp or credit boost?
[QUOTE=waylander;51147037]is it worth saving for a forza edition car with a xp or credit boost?[/QUOTE]
They're pretty nice but you'll probably get one from a spin sooner or later. I was thinking i'd never got one but then I got the XP boost Mustang on level 51 or so

Also, random tip. Unless you're really strapped for cash, always heep the Horizon Edition cars. Once you have enough, just from sheer chance, you'll eventually get to the point where you win ones you already have in a prize spin. When that happens, it asks if you want to keep the dupe or sell it for half the value which is 5,000,000cr. Much better than auctioning.
I went from 4,000,000 to 29,000,000 today just from spamming the spins and getting HE cars I already had.

Not very good with taking pictures, but boy I love the tesla!
Wait can you sell cars? I only get the option to remove from garage
Is it auction house only?
I bought Forza hoping that I'd get at least some results.
It crashes on startup and i disconnected my mic and restarted the appdata. Instant refund.

[editline]3rd October 2016[/editline]
that being said I have multiple input and output devices enabled now (i had to disable on first launch to get it to work) and it now laucnhes every time with them enabled

Only auction house and if you win a dupe in a wheelspin.
Man, really hate the drivatars that are so blatantly cheating it isn't even funny.
During my first truck race, the guy in first in also first in the lineup, but is 10 seconds ahead of me the entire time, impossible to catch up to. Hopefully next time I hop on I don't have to play against his bitch ass drivatar again.
Has there been any word on patches to unfuck the game a bit?
I'm still really interested in buying it, but these issues and a lack of a demo are making me wait for now.

The Forza devs never usually announce patches but they almost always release them alongside DLC, I assume so that they're in sync in terms of QA/cert. Because of that I'd expect a patch or at least official word tomorrow.
I still don't understand how the Forza Hub works. I'm level 50 or so in-game, and tier 2 in the Hub, but playing more doesn't seem to change that.

You can check the criteria for the rewards stuff in the Hub app itself. It's stuff like buying more cars, owning DLC, etc.
Hub hasn't updated for me either, for like 5 days.
