^that is fubared....


I just went in and changed my settings how I ran them in F4 - didn't even change the 'medium / expert / etc" setting first. Hopefully goign to expert and modifying from there will liven up the cars a bit.

oh snap i need to try that.
thats the one thing i dont like about this game, it feels like a newer car with tcs "off" ;)

Ya apparently if you set the difficulty to expert, then modify our assists to how you want them (like tcs, abs, steering etc.) then there will be no stability control. If you were to set difficulty to medium first, and then set the assists all the exact same, then stability control will be on :dot:

multiplayer 'free roam', with co-op challenges. So, we can just drive around in the 'world' with friends, racing and messing around. sweet.


now, to get 8 cars to cross one of those speed cameras at over 240 mph, all within 1 second of each other.... I expect some epic and hilarious replay videos for that one!

[kwill22]

Heck yea will try today. It was driving me crazy cuz I have all the assist off but that was annoying me

Putting difficulty to expert apparently turns off the hidden stability control.

I played online a lil bit tonight and it sucks compaired to 4. I say use this for driving around and career fun. Which is awesome. And use forza 4 mainly for the online play. The only thing I've seen so far is regular races, and the playground which is one game of infected, king, and cat and mouse and they rotate in the same game. Gets boring after a few games and tonight there was a bunch of lag from other people. Could possibly get better as more people get the game and go online but I'm not getting my hopes up.

The only thing I don't like about the game is it drives like the cars have stability control on even though traction is off. So when you go to counter steer during a race it overcompensates so it's easier to just not touch the steering to much and the car corrects itself which is opposite of 4 so I have a feeling when I go to play online or go drifting on 4 I'm gonna suck at first

Yea the drifting is pretty much the same. The only part that sucks is no tuning so you cant really control the drifting dynamics and they are pretty close to being the same for each car depending on the power. I'm satisfied with the game though

[hfabricius]

Is drifting the same as it was in the demo? Cause when I did the Mustang race with assists turned off, I got sideways really easy. Almost effortlessly.

I don't have live so would this game still be fun or is mainly for online stuff?

i havent even touched multi yet, i think it would be fun for offline only.
but im sorta getting bored of offline play.

Here's my attempt at copying my m3 from forza 4 with a few differences

[Raxe]

Love the boost portrayal, I have the S63B44TU installed with a big pair of race turbos... the thing drives normally and then just snaps from 5000rpm like a real big-turbo car.
