[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;51170722]Eh. I'm done with H3.
The AI cheat SOO fucking much. I can understand when I'm against a car that makes sense that could realistically beat me. But how an "Upgraded" 3000lb+ 1980's muscle car can outturn, outrun, outbrake and out accelerate me from a corner whilst I'm driving an 800bhp Ariel Atom...yeah no. To even keep up with me that thing would need to be at-least 1000hp+, the torque alone would stop it from being able to fully accelerate out a turn without snapping itself around. You'd have the feather the fuck outta that to get it out.
I don't mind AI getting a slight advantage, but when even on "Above Average" setting they get some monstrous advantages that soak the fun out of the game for me. Beating them is still fine, but to see them physically not have to confide to the physics the player is forced too and getting MONSTROUS speedboosts at random, I can't bring myself to play anymore. Between that and them being a bunch of retarded bumper car derby racers. I regret my purchase now.

And yes I know the AI need "Cheats" to compete with human players most of the time, but there is a difference between sly and well done advantage to AI and just straight out mind boggling unrealistic cheats.[/QUOTE]
I play on the hardest AI difficulty and absolutely no assists, and full damage, most I've gotten is just quite a challenge. Then again, the highest I've played is A
God damn I wanted to upgrade my Audi RS4 a little bit to do some off road races, soft springs off road tires a bit of weight reduction and a rollcage to make it legitimate. Along the way I saw the engine swapping options for that car
I've now got a 1490kg Audi RS4 on race tires, with a 7 litre twin turbo V12 that's putting out 1515 bhp. Fucking Forza
[QUOTE=Spectre1406;51116314]ugh here's hoping that full tuned 5-star silvia can finish the whole Blackridge Spirit[/QUOTE]

How do you get 2.2 million XP while staying at level 45?
[QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;51174134]I feel like I'm commiting some horrible sin by using the braking line and rewind, but it's like the only way I can play the game.[/QUOTE]
I have to turn the line on or turn the difficulty way down for cross country races, half the time I can't see where I'm supposed to be going. I'm still not a huge fan of cross country races
So i said goodbye with this High-on-opium-japanese-made-recycled-racing-game

I can't do the wall grind xp bullshit, maybe because I'm using a wheel? On the other hand awd viper he is great so I might try the Goliath race instead
Are you using the HE variant of the BMW or the Focus? I think it was a focus. Not sure if you DEFO need one of those two, but I know you do need something similar that boosts the skill score to make it even viable regardless. That or it was patched.
[QUOTE=laserpanda;51173829]The new Crown Victoria Police Interceptors are flooding the Auction. I usually search for Buy it Now under 10k when I log on just to see if I can snag some cheap cars, but today it's dozens and dozens of Crown Victorias for 1k.[/QUOTE]
You can't buy em without the DLC though right
fs when are they going to fix this 720 upscaling on the pc photmode, half the reason i wanted this game was because i wanted to dick around with that but whats the point when everything looks shit

I used it last night with the XP Boost BRZ. Any car that can drift decently will work. It really helps to upgrade it as much as possible so you can maintain your speed along the wall. If you're using the 3x XP skill thing It should be viable even without a skill car though. Even half the XP is still a lot.
Edit: Just tested it again. Still works.
So i was doing 6 laps of Goliath, and then this happened

I love doing multi-lap races on Goliath, it fucks the AI up so bad :v:
Is goliath like the finale in horizon 2? Full map circuit?
Is there any way to copy the game files? I'm getting my new computer tomorrow and really don't want to spend ~6 hours downloading it again over my shitty mobile internet
[QUOTE=Del91;51178131]Is goliath like the finale in horizon 2? Full map circuit?[/QUOTE]
didn't play Horizon 2, but i guess every race around the whole map in any racing game is a final one. But not in this case, it's just a race
Woi I just got the M3 Horizon Edition on a spin, might just auction it though it's going at about 1-1.5m
[QUOTE=zerosix;51178550]Woi I just got the M3 Horizon Edition on a spin, might just auction it though it's going at about 1-1.5m[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=TheAdmiester;51147069]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.[/QUOTE]
??
Didn't see that
I'll be keeping it for sake of collecting them, but some people might just want the cash now instead of maybe having the chance to get more in the future
[QUOTE=zerosix;51178675]but some people might just want the cash now instead of maybe having the chance to get more in the future[/QUOTE]
True, but considering spins cost only 50k it's probably better to try get duplicates
Them being 5 mil was a bug, they're only like 100k now
All these cool designs in Forza are nice and all, but has anyone been brave enough to make one of [I]those [/I]cars?
You know, these ones.

does anyone have a good tune for the he f type? its such a good money maker but it drives like a piece of shit
2 laps of goliath in it took me from 400k to 1.1 mil 9 spins which won me both the m3 and huracan he

Just AWD convert, Forza aero, full engine upgrades (engine swapped too if you want).
The AWD part is pretty important, it'll be rather understeery but it's the price you pay for stability really.

I was doing it earlier and the car in front of me stopped instantly, then every car piled up into it and they all launched in different directions. I had to rewind because it flung me across the map.
I think I have a screenshot, but I didn't share it (word filter wouldn't allow it even with no name) so I have no idea how to access it.

[QUOTE=Hillo;51178656](Wheelspin Duplicate Car thing) ??[/QUOTE]
This has been patched. You don't get the option anymore. (It was profitable enough that with all HE cars owned, wheelspins paid for themselves and you could keep doing it forever.)
so is there cross-play between PC and Xbox? do you guys have gamertags that an Xbox One player could add? Let's do some co-op campaign, hell yea
does anyone know of any way to wipe your progress in FH3? i feel like restarting the campaign because i made some mistakes early on and i just want a clean slate
[QUOTE=FFStudios;51181348]so is there cross-play between PC and Xbox? do you guys have gamertags that an Xbox One player could add? Let's do some co-op campaign, hell yea[/QUOTE]
Yes there is crossplay, both PC and Xbox when online play together, I did have a spreadsheet and form that we were filling in but I think it got forgotten, really needs adding into the OP or something.
[url]https://goo.gl/forms/wYXvTPng9vbukdP32[/url] Form
[url]https://goo.gl/HHplv4[/url] Spreadsheet
Me and Miggy have been playing online with console and PC, everything works just fine except he crashes to desk all the fuckin time
