[QUOTE=waylander;51609198]does it matter what resolution you set in AC when using the rift? i hope when it gets full vr support they fix the mirrors, it might seem like a small thing but the 2d mirrors look like trash and kill immersion[/QUOTE]

I don't think it does

[RobyYe]

[QUOTE=AlmightyOran;51608959]The Renault is great. I play with an alien who insists it's trash but, the thing is so comfy and yellow I'll take it anyway. [/QUOTE] Well to be honest the chassis is shit and no downforce and don't get me started on power, but at least it's better than the Sauber. But it just looks amazing really.

[QUOTE=Zombiespeed;51605161]I've been wanting to replay NFS Underground 1 again but I can't get it to work on Windows 10. After hours of troubleshooting I can't get further than a black screen at the startup screen.
Has anybody gotten it to work under Windows 10?[/QUOTE]

the drm was disabled in win10. so you will have to use a crack to get the game to function.
[url]https://thirteenag.github.io/wfp#nfs[/url] you should get the widescreen fixes from this page. underground widescreen might only be enabled when in a race though

I couldn't get any cracks to work. Some wouldn't start at all and others did, but showed a black screen instead of the first intro video.

January Forza car pack leaked, and damn it sounds good.

[sp]BMW i8
Ford Falcon XA GTHO
Volvo V60 Polestar
Nissan Skyline GTSR R31 (!!!)
2014 Ford Trophy Truck
Radical RXC Turbo
Bentley Bentayga[/sp]

[Nikpo]

[sp]R31[/sp] omg

Car pass seems worth it now

[BF]

Yay I correctly predicted the [sp]XA Falcon[/sp] although I still feel dissappointed; [sp]it's pretty much a cross between the XY Falcon and the XB Falcon Hardtop, both of which are already in the game. I'm glad they're adding it in, but if they were only going to add one Australian car, it should have been the XC Falcon Cobra.[/sp]

[Checkeredjaz]

[sp]Hey we're getting imo the second best Swedish car in this pack, and an r31. I prefer the r30 but with an r31 coming that means there's a chance of it happening.[/sp] all in all a pretty great sounding pack with great variety and cool debuts.

[TheAdmiester]

So the latest update for FH3 on PC was fucked up. Instead of updating, it was redownloading the whole game - but an unencrypted copy. Because of that, we now know a few upcoming cars, among which is the 1985 Holden Commodore VK.

[EddieLTU]

and a porsche dlc, also make sure to get that build for data mining purposes. PM if you want pictures of all the leaked cars list

I just want the Saab 99 and 9-3 back. :cry:

[Reagy]

Someone at Turn 10 or Playground did a big "oops".
This is why you don't mix branches. :v:

[ulvemann43]

With all those porches in the game files i really hope the second expansion in the pass won't be a big porche expansion. I'd be sad if the second expansion isn't a map expansion.

Hasn't the Forza series had a Porsche expansion for every game ever? I remember Forza 4 had one, and Forza 6 has one.

[TheAdmiester]

Yep, they fucked up with this build.

[BF]

Nobody gives a rat's ass about Porsches or Skylines. Who needs those when you have the bloody XA Falcon!

How a Falcon should be! Four doors and a 351 badge!

[QUOTE=BF;51619203]Hasn't the Forza series had a Porsche expansion for every game ever? I remember Forza 4 had one, and Forza 6 has one.[/QUOTE]

Yes but the porche expansion was always cheaper, if i am correct, than the big expansion. And since this time they made a full on pass for the two expansions, i do sorta expect a bit more. Especially considering the expansion pass is almost twice the cost of blizzard mountain, and the porche expansion for FH2 was a quarter the cost of storm island.

lol I got swept up in emotions because of the new Australian car. HR31 is pretty cool. I wonder if they'll add the DR30 RS sometime. Hell even the V35 would be pretty cool.

Playground Games really fucked up bad didn't they

Why can't I find anything about this on gaming news anywhere

[editline]4th January 2017[/editline]

So I looked over the list of leaked cars, and some good news for Australian car fans [sp]the list mentions both a 2015 and a 2016 'falconfg(x)', separate from the '15 Falcon XR8 (later on the list). My guess is that the 2015 car is the XR6 Turbo (Australia's favourite sleeper car), while the 2016 car is the Sprint variant (more power, different styling) of either the XR6 or XR8, hopefully the XR6. The list also mentions a 2016 VF (probably a series II) Commodore, so it's probably going to be the 300kW SS-V Redline.

The lack of more Australian cars is still kinda disappointing. There's a lot that the game is missing out on[/sp].

Also is it just me, or are the naming conventions of the cars in the Forza series really inconsistent as hell? Both in-game and in that devlog?

I would fucking kill for any Saabs in the game, that's why I said second best.. I would probably literally do anything to get a 900 in the game being as I own one myself.

Because of the weird branch that got pushed out should I wait to install horizon 3 on my PC?

Please be an XR6 Turbo, it's really weird they didn't add it into the base game. Still wanting a VL turbo though :c

When Playground Games said that the game would feature Australian car culture, I don't think that they knew what they were talking about haha. An XR6 Turbo is certainly a step in the right direction. Hell, even Gran Turismo 4 featured the F6 Typhoon with mostly the same engine, and that game was released over ten years ago.
