I got this game the other day and have gotten really really into it. Not since Gran Turismo 2 for the PS1 has a racing sim grabbed me like this game has.

I love the psuedo RPG aspect, needing to level up in order to be allowed into better races. Gives a reason to keep going.

Anyone else have this game?

Schecter
you should close the thread are open a new one when the forum is fixed.

i got forza a couple of days ago and im liking it alot




touch my penis

I heard so much about making your own model and then selling it. Which sound interesting. How's the tracks? bitchin or shitty?

BackFire
Tracks are good, not a huge amount of variety, but enough to keep the experience fresh throughout.

PVS: *Touches*

Teehee

Hey PVS, what level are you?

Schecter
level? shit i dont know. i havent advanced very far, that i know

BackFire
On your knees, wench. I hate your mouth.

Yeah you gain levels as you drive, which unlocks new cars and tracks, in career mode, that is.

Schecter
i started out on europe...should have taken japan. it has a red honda crx just like i used to own and also my present car. the selection kicks ass...ass...ass...mmmmmmmmmmm

BackFire
Yeah, my home is America. The discounts don't seem to matter much, you rack up so much money, and get so many free cars, that it's not really a huge deal.

would you recommend it to non car-freaks?.. I mean I enjoy driving.. but when I gotta do stuff like angling tires and changing gear ratios it makes me dizzy embarrasment

BackFire
Yes! I know jack shit about cars, I have no interest in them, but the game is still incredibly fun.

Schecter
you can buy tunable suspension and i imagine you can adjust the drivetrain if you buy it...i never bother with that though since im not a frikin mechanic.

backfire, im level 11 now

Played the demo, and I ****ing sucked at it.

Kinda of freaked me out a little bit.

Saw the 1up show and those guys (most are gear heads also) were talkign about how you can do all shit with telemetry (whatever the **** that is).

I might pick it up later on down the road when it becomes a bit cheaper.

BackFire
Yeah, Gear heads love this game. But it has an appeal for people like me too. I still upgrade my car and such, and it makes it easy for me to figure out what exactly each upgrade will change, even though I don't know about cars.

The demo was pretty underwhelming.

I played the demo last night and managed to snag a win... but not without slamming into the back of the 1st place car (he was driving like a granny) embarrasment .. damn daytona USA breeding violent driving big grin

is there a penalty for having body damage?

and the real time turn taking aid is a really nice feature..

Smasandian
Yeah, I aslo liked the aid.

I think thats the difference between an great car sim like Forza, to an alright car sim GT.

BackFire
You can turn on a penalty for damage. I have it turned on slightly, so if I take too much damage your steering will screw up, or your max speed will decrease. You can also have it cause no damage. Or more damage.

Smasandian
So, I'm assuming the game is highly customizable.

BackFire
It is. You can change everything about the game, make it more arcadey, or a pure sim. Totally up to you.

Smasandian
Awesome.

I might pick it up sooner or later.

I love driving sims, only when I'm in the mood though. Got PGR3 for 15 bucks and I played it for awhile, but havent even touched it since.

LinixCobra
This game to me is way better than PGR series but just under GT.... the best part is the customizing options and the paint jobs because you could make a personal paint job and sorta make it your signature.

WrathfulDwarf
I been browsing some pics of customize cars. Damn! Some of them look pretty cool and neat. There was one with GRAW theme...and another one with a Gears of War. Wish I had the game. I would make one with a Batmobile theme or a Dwarf Axe image on the car...lol!
