Damn that bowler bucket list challenge in cockpit view was intense haha

I did the bowler and Lancia ones back to back. Treemageddon


Actually I didn't mind the trees, but it is annoying how barricaded the horizon festival is, having to aim to the west of it to get in, and also needing to remember the bridge nearby that will mess you up.

Yeah I have been stuck several times now trying to get around the barricades in general.

Second game crash today. 1st was on road discover, second on fast travel board smash, game stat popup/count mechanism maybe causing the issue.

Damnit. Was so hyped. Just bought it and heading home with the wife. Pull in driveway and inlaws are waiting for us. Evidently they invited themselves over for dinner.

Sad panda :(
Can just imagine the expletives running in your head as you put on the "what a nice surprise" face.

Lvl 45, had no single crash so far, latest preview update installed. Hm. Sucks for those with crashes.

Try to clear your MAC adress on the console + hard reboot, maybe this will help.

Yeah the first try I ended up behind the barricades and had to do a U-turn missing the time. Was pretty annoyed..
 
T10/PG please tell me guys that BMW i8 will be available in one of the car packs, after today I'm so in love with it.

I forced a dashboard update earlier and I've had no crashes since.
Still get the occasional half second pause though, and those squares...

Still loving it overall and aiming to work my way up the gaf leaderboard!

Anyone else getting a black screen loading this game? I let it sit for awhile and it did nothing so I went on to something else.
 
Holy shit at the classic music! What a joy to drive around with Beethoven on. Never thought this music would fit the game but it's pure awesome.

So I just finished driving all 315 roads but oddly I'm still missing 2 speed traps and 1 speed zone. There are also no darkened out icons for them on the map. Are they maybe on non-official streets?

Has Microsoft even hinted at streaming music in the the background? Wish they would stop being so stubborn.

If you pass them during a race or road trip, they don't trigger on the map even though you have driven on the road.


Edit: I love seeing "coming soon" under the Bucket List section. I really hope they support that with like monthly lists or special events and such.

That's why I like my Astro A50 headset, I can plug anything (cellphone, mp3 player, tablet etc.) into mixamp and play music from that device while still getting audio from the game ;)

Oh god yeah... they've been so stubborn by releasing great updates every single month. /s

We just got DLNA streaming, give them a chance.
 
Looks like whole portions of geometry bugging out to me. Whatever it is, it's still an issue that caused me to crash!

It is the geometry bugging out, but it's most likely caused by streaming like I said. The game tries to load a higher LOD model as you get closer and it just bugged out.

You can snap internet explorer and stream music that way... Its not in the background technically but it works if you don't mind playing snapped.

Alright. Are you playing the game on a stock XB1 HDD? I wonder if the problem will go away once I get an external drive.
 
Keep getting stuck on loading screen. I quit and and tried again. Same deal. What exactly is a hard reset?

Hold the on button (on the console) down for 10 seconds until you hear it fully power down and off (it makes a noise and you'll know its all off) then wait like 2/3 minutes and turn it back on, it'll do the full boot sequence

anyone able to teach how to drift

Take your finger off accelerate as you're turning a corner, tap the brake.


Is there a system setting on the X1 to mute everyone?
The sound of other players online coming out of my TV is atrocious, really off putting.

Plug in your mic and turn the volume off? That should work. Not sure if there is a system wide setting.

Create a party with just yourself in it, should do the trick.
