[QUOTE=redBadger;51147462]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.[/QUOTE] change the difficulty it picks new ones. maybe he just had a good car as well though, a tuned fj40 can easily win races without leaving second gear

The language filter I find is both really aggressive and outright broken, it'll trigger even just using the default settings and "forza" as the photo's title at times. [editline]4th October 2016[/editline] Also certain car names, that you can select in model, will toggle it as well.

Check your height privilege. On a more serious note I really wish they had more rotary engine cars. The RX-3 was huge in Australia. Seriously, search for one for sale and 90% of the results are from Australia. Apparently it was in the first Horizon, which makes its absence even stranger. Maybe they're planning on a rotary DLC with the RX-3, Cosmo JC, and the older RX-7s Also 787B because no racing game is complete without it.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get them in batches, bunch of hypercars, bunch of sports cars and iconics etc etc etc

Apparently after crashing last night my game will no longer launch. Any suggestions?

after doing a 1.5 hour race i got enough money to get this [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/LH9pdFI.png[/IMG]

Oh for fuck's sake. The game froze my entire fucking PC, and now it's crashing every time I try to start it. quality port 10/10

I played all day yesterday without a crash until just before I was about to quit anyway, and today it won't start at all. edit: clearing my shader cache fixed it.

Is it even worth buying this with an i5 4690k @ 4.00? All I've heard about this game is how broken it's CPU usage is. I've been super excited for this but the port performance has been holding me back

[IMG]http://wanganmaxi-official.com/wanganmaxi5dx/en/terminal/itemList/img/icon/wheel_s00_13.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://wanganmaxi-official.com/wanganmaxi5dx/en/terminal/itemList/img/icon/wheel_s00_14.jpg[/IMG]

I personally would go either for the Enkei 92 or keep the Watanabe, Enkei 5 Spoke is very classic American looking and would also fit but maybe be a bit of an obvious choice? The 5 Spoke Yoko I feel are a bit too modern for the car although not bad looking per se.

is there anywhere this is being sold at a reasonable price on pc? its stupid how on pc you can only get the console+pc version, while on console theres a cheaper console-only version. £50 for a game is just taking the piss tbh

[quote]- Fixed a performance issue on Windows 10 that caused stuttering with high or unlocked framerates on certain hardware configurations - Improved stability on Windows 10[/quote] Oh thank fuck Maybe I can unlock my goddamn framerate from 30fps now. Hopefully it fixes my FPS being maxed out at 57fps too though, regardless of it being on maximum settings or minimum settings I could never get it to go past 57fps.

My racing team is now entirely from Facepunch. I don't know who any of you are though.
