Forza Horizon 3 |OT| uozoH zo

I cant confirm this but it looks like Warren instantly repairs all the barn finds if you press the windows key a lot of times in the first loading screen. (the one with still images)

Is there a guide to finding the barn cars because I suck at it. I spent an hour looking for one and then another looking in drone mode

If you are having a super hard time I can post some images of the map showing all locations for you and anyone else having problems. The drone was my go to for finding the barns.

Anyone else having problems with the barn finds championship? I can't choose any barn find cars and instead the game asks me to buy a Miura for a million (wtf?).

Anyone know whats up with the online?

Me and my friends get disconnected when playing online together. Been happening since launch on PC.

I was actually sad that the treasure map showed exactly where all the barn finds are. I only wanted it so I could easily find the XP/Fast Travel boards.

Probably should have read it closer before I bought it. lol
 
First car pack details supposedly leaked, car names in spoiler:

Aston Vulcan, BMW M2, Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Crown Vic, Jeep CJ5 Renegade and Lotus 340R

Ah, so both the Motorsport and Horizon games have 7-car packs now.

The 340R was a lot of fun in PGR2, and any Pagani is fine by me.

Pretty game.

Finished the last event, clocked around 49 hours with the game. It was a disappointment for sure.
While I would've preferred for this particular event to be the 2nd (instead of the last), I think that something as simple as giving you a faster car would've created more thrill and suspense. A car that can only go up to 140 km/h is truly anticlimactic.

I waited until I got all the barn finds, and then bought the treasure map. This is the best way, because you get to explore for stuff first, find all the easy signs, and then mop up all the rest that are impossible to find without looking them up online or something.

Secret best vehicle in the game

Showcase redeemed?

We've reached the limit to the club. I've locked it and am going through kicking people now. If you got kicked don't worry, just PM me and we'll sort it out. I'm using activity and the spreadsheet to determine who gets kicked. The process is really slow, so I won't be getting rid of everyone not on the spreadsheet. Would like to have at least 50 open slots for folks coming to the game in the next few weeks. When we fill up again we'll kick more non-GAFers out. After I'm done I'll post again for instructions on how and who to talk to get a car club invite.

The old Toyota Celica GT with a drift tune from Don Joewon Song. Over 1000hp in a C Class car. Immense fun. I was crap at the drift zones but aced one at the first try in this car with that tune.

I love the 1986 Audi #2 Sport Quattro S1. It takes effort to crash that thing it's so stable. I can just pick a direction and fly through the outback with great handling.

I upgraded and tuned a 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth to S1 for online cross-country / rally races and it's just such a fun, steady and responsive car! I absolutely love cross-country races because of it

I used this one for all my Drift Zones and while I kind of disliked drifting before I actually ended up enjoying it with this car and the that tune. Almost all Drift Zones turned really easy for me.

I'm in the process of making an Escort Cosworth Police car upgraded and tuned for a mix off both on and off road.

Like this guy -

It's a beast of a car. Just need to vinish the decals and do a final tune on it.

I also have a real one so the Escort Cosworth has a special place in my heart <3

I got the Warthog for 300k from the auction and damn what a super fun car to drive with. I actually really love the offroad events, and the Warthog is a beast for them.

Also: damn massive lol.

Redeemed my code for the Warthog and it is still not showing up in my game/garage. Weird.

Holy shit, the same exact thing happened to me with the same car and amount which I got.

Yup. The Centenario event should have been last (and then awarded you with the car for finishing it, since it's the mascot of the game). Baffling design decision.

For some reason achievements don't pop up when I play on PC, is there an easy fix to this? I see that I get the achievements but they don't show me during the game when I get them.

As i said on a previous post, if you open the Xbox app, notifications for achievements will start popping up.

Two things

a) I thought I unlocked Clubs when I got my 3rd festival location? Didn't unlock for me last night, want to get into the GAF group before it gets locked :(

b) How do I disable/remove/whatever Groove Music from the PC version? I don't have it, and I'm perfectly fine with the in game music. Hate seeing the error every time I open the settings or seeing the channel when I'm switching around.

This is the first game in a long time where I really feel like buying a racing wheel. Saw some people like the Logitech G920, others had problems with it, and others won't do without a Fanatec CSL. Holy shit at those Fanatec prices, not sure if I can afford them right now.

I finally found a good way to do drift zones on dirt roads (I got this from googling / Forza forums):

1) Buy the following car:

Year: 1977
Manufacturer: Holden
Car: Torana A9X (RWD - Rear Wheel Drive)

2) Then once the car is selected in your garage, go to Garage > Tuning. Go to Setup Manager. Go to Search Tunes. Type "Boydy" under the Creator tag. Take Boydy's tune and apply it to the car. It'll make the car an AWD (All-Wheel Drive) car. Fuck if I know why that's better, but that along with the other enhancements/changes from Boydy's set-up made an Outback drift zone incredibly easy.

I don't know if the same will work on asphault drift zones....

So I went through the invitation requests for the ForzaGAF dashboard club, and used the [Gaf] club sign up sheet to send out quite a few invitations to join it. We're getting close to 100 members now!

Since your new to this go with the Thrustmaster TMX. Its a good entry level wheel and you can add better pedals and a shifter if you want to at a later date.

Think I'll give this a try and see if I can not suck at drift zones. Haven't gotten close to finishing a single one yet.

You need to expand it one more time.
It depends on what your other festival levels are at, as you need six total festival upgrades/expansions. If you have unlocked your third festival, then you are likely one upgrade away, but it can be from any of your festivals.
