Forza Horizon - Fall 2012 - Developed by PlayGround Games

Yeah I'm leaving too. Half of my page is hidden posts and the other half is people quoting those shit talks.

Just remembering his first post in this topic.
Every post of his is either "this is a travesty" or a reply to anybody remotly intrested in the game "You like this game, well fuck you I'm going to look down at you". At one point he can't pull the "It's my opinion and you should deal with it" card. This is trolling and he knows it too.

And the bait and switch thing he does is just ugh.

learn what trolling is, you guys just cant handle my opinions
 
Then educate me. Write a 1000 word essay on what trolling is. You have enough time to reply to every post in this thread, then you should have no problem with the essay.

why dont you write a 1000 word essay on the term butthurt, should be easy for you ;)
 
Just wondering, does anything carry over from the FM games? (would be a shame to miss out on all the Porsches).

I was really avoiding this thread. Which is a shame since I'm interested in Horizon and I'm a fan of Forza Motorsport series so I would love to have a thread to discuss this properly with other fellow GAFfers.

To answer your question Rad Agast Forza Horizon will read your Forza Motorsport 4 Save File and based on that (don't know if based on Completion % Rate, cars on your garage or anything else) you will have access to some bonus cars from the Start.

I cannot wait to pick up my copy - all we need is some Top Gear involvement within it, and it would have the potential to be a brilliant fun title!

It is just a pity that they couldn't work it so that any DLC bought for Forza 4 could be carried over to Horizon (a la Rock band 1 and 2). I traded Forza 4 in after a few weeks, as it just got very dull and repetitive (and the Top Gear bits alone weren't sufficient enough to keep hold of the title).
 
agreed but i dont see how top gear bs will make forza horizon any better

Personally, I think they add fun gameplay to F4 - I want to play car football, rather than 'yet another track race, *yawn*'. I want to have daft challenges, rather than another version of 'can this car do this track faster than this car?'. In the same way that in TDU2, some friends and I found a shipping yard filled with containers, in which we developed a 'Bugatti tag' game. I enjoy the TV show (BBC version, of course), and so and title which can provide a similar experience will automatically be of interest to me. Hell, if only for the Test Track they had included the celebrity lap times, and let you be ranked amongst them as well.

At the end of the day, I expect to be entertained and have fun for my pecuniary outlay. Simple track racing doesn't cut it anymore. Different strokes, and all that, but Horizon looks set to be a step in the right direction, for my tastes.
 
implying? its not the truth?

Not really, as a few posters here have shown. I'm not a fan of that genre too :)
once again, is that all you got?

Maybe one gif was all he needed. Sometimes a single image can sum someone up pretty well...

class on an internet forum, ok
Call it class, or posting ettiquette, you didn't need to use the term "butthurt". Afterall, the forum faq does encourage us to "be respectful of other fellow members" :)

some gifs from gttv video

I wish the lighting during night races were more dynamic, GT5 has shadows dancing around your cockpit as you go past the streetlights. In Horizon however, your dashboard remains dark :/

1. well thats the audience they are going for

2. sure but why post it 5 times?

3. yea like they are respectful to me lmao

Sure, but don't paint us with the same brush. Why include simulation options they're only looking to sell their game to dubstep fans.

2. sure but why post it 5 times?
Heh probably cos it's effective. Got you to keep asking, he probably wanted to rile you up...which is what you've been doing anyway :) Which leads me to...

3. yea like they are respectful to me lmao
My dear Xanadu, I bet a bulk of these replies that you find....unfavourable... wouldn't have been posted if you hadn't got on their nerves. You were the instigator, do you not see that? :)
 
re: dubstep - custom soudtracks, for the win! I already have a huge playlist of classic rock ready to go!

That, and a couple of GTA IV's radio stations... ;)

When it comes to racing games (sim racing to full-on futuristic), I always have Prodigy's Fat of the Land album loaded :D

" All these poser fanboys dont like it when I expose them to the harsh reality Forza 1 was the only game in the series worth my time. They will never understand the pain and the darkness that broods in my soul. So much so that I post more than anyone else in a thread about a game I am predetermined to hate. Crawwwllllling innnnn myyyyy skinnnnnnn! Thhhheeessssseee woooouuunnnds thhheeeeyyyyy wiiilllll noooottttt heeaaaaaaaaal!"/ Emo Xanadu
 
because they know the difference between trolling, and upset fanboys

"They also know my manifesto is nearing completion! Oh though I walk through the shadow of the darkness from image based lighting, I shall fear no assist, because forza 1 is with me, and I can be as negative as I want because nobody can feel my pain :'(" /Emo Xanadu
 
soundscream, i know you are fighting the good fight, but that gif is far more annoying and more difficult to ignore then xanadu's posts...

EDIT: sneaky77, i agree completely. trying to point out that soundscream seems to me to be a bigger offense in this thread with emo spidey gif.

spamming gifs is a 4 week ban didnt you know ;)

If it draws attention to your act I'll fall on the sword. I dont understand how somone could do nothing but post negative crap, and be allowed to continue on doing so. All but 1 of your 90 something post are negative.

No one seems to care that you have been shiting up 3 forza threads. If any one else were to go into lets say a Mario thread and post about how great the original Super Mario was and all the recent games are crap we wouldn't last a day.

But no. If I get banned so be it, but it's strange how you are allowed to go on posting like you have, not adding anything to the conversation and just being a pain.

Sure.. but there's two issues there: first, you keep on harping the same complaints so naturally people get tired of it. Maybe you should consult a mod. As an example, you could ask them:

"Hey mister moderator, I don't want to be testing the system here so tell me, how far can I go with my "ITS NOT LIKE FORZA 1" complaints in threads that are not about Forza 1? Others seem to think I keep derailing the discussion but I certainly don't think so."

Second, you refer to posters with the term "fanboy" in a derogatory manner, as if to mean we're obsessed and hence, unreasonable. This isn't true... in fact, how we react reflects on your posting etiquette, especially when you stir things up by calling people names. You asked why'd someone would bother posting a gif 5 times, because I'm sure you felt that kind of behavior was unnecessary. That said, we think there's no need for you to keep reiterating on how disappointed you are with the forza franchise as well. :)
 
its the same subject, i dont spam the same posts

Really?

i liked forza before it lost focus on what made it so special in the first place

yep as ive been saying all along they need to go back to the forza 1 way of thinking

forza 1 was all about the racing, no car football or bowling bullshit, just pure racing, it even had night racing and point to point. they say they add gimmicky things for more casual fans and core players shouldnt care because we dont have to play them, but they take away time and money which could have been spent on NEW FUCKING TRACKS or even remodelling the old inaccurate tracks like the nurburgring or even updated the forza 1 models for laser scanned ones..but no

wrong

forza motorsport = semi sim series losing focus on what made forza so great in the first place

horison = nfs unlimited cash grab ;)

lol i love how excited they are about night racing when it was in forza 1

when have i ever said that? if you ever read my posts under fender uk on the forza 2 thread you'd see i loved that game despite many features missing from the first game. but to me forza 3 was a huge step down in terms of career structure and overall gameplay. forza 4 was a step in the right direction with sim steering but still they added more and more bullshit and ignored many core fans (like me) criticisms. how long have we been complaining about lack of tracks? and obvious inaccuracy of tracks and cars. but nooooooooo they wont fix any of that because thats not what gets the arcade kids interested, lets introduce kid assists like auto braking and rewind which completely ruins the point of competitive racing. lets add in bullshit top gear to get that dumb audience to play our game, and hey lets add a warthog to get halo kids to buy our game, fuck what the core gaming expiernece is, you cant have spa or bathurst or a even close to accurate nurburgring. of course i still enjoy the new forzas to agree thats why i own every single forza game but the fact they ignore all this shit for too long and spend their budget on gimmicks pisses me off. imo ;)

its not even this, every forza seems less focused on making the racing better, its more about gimmicks to get arcade kids playing

That's 30 seconds of looking at the first page of your 114 posts in the thread, all bashing the game. At some point you have to wonder why you spend so much time in a thread about a game you obviously don't care for. Like I said before, you don't like it...great. We all get the message and care soooo much. Move on to something you actually enjoy and leave everyone else in their uneducated dub-step infested squalor.

first off i havent been saying this isnt purely like forza 1, i'm saying its not like the main forzas, which is what real forza fans want, i have bought every forza game so why do people think i only like the first game? sure i like the first game the best but so do lots of hardcore forza fans. and sure because only fanboys seem to get angry at me, most people either reply to me in disagreement or ignore me but the fanboys get mad and start getting angry at lil old me and call me a troll, which i dont mind because i know its not true ;)

lol neogaf is the only place i know where people take the time to do this sort of stuff, yes and notice every thing i said is true? they are losing focus of the first forza games which was all about the racing, and while of course its still a racing game shit like painting semi nude little anime girls on your car and top gear shit like hitting a ball around with your car is what they advertise to get the casual kids in, you know its true too

C'mon...You're so bent on wanting people to know that your opinion of the forza franchise is true that you've become blind to what some people are really complaining about: that some things are only worth bringing up once and there's no point in harping on something to a ridiculous degree.

And maybe the term troll has been misused here, but it doesn't diminish the fact that you're an instigator. Or that discussions are derailed because of your unnecessary remarks.

i dont think they are unnecessary, i share my opinion about news of the new game, if you dont like my opinion feel free to disagree or ignore my post but dont call me a troll and start arguments like this one

It's one thing to be on-topic, its another to be flippant with your opinions, calling names even. But if you'd like to cling on to the belief that you've been very tactful with every single posts you've made, if you think that people calling you troll is the very root of the problem here.. sure :)

To repeat the same damn thing over and over and over again isn't stating an opinion.
