I believe you can purchase a Model S P90D with Ludicrous Mode in the base game. Checking now though.

Edit: you can, it's 72k credits. Also, the Duracell, SpaceX and KFC liveries are great.

Perfect, thanks.

 

[Grisby]

YO what channel is this on???

Think it might have been Hospital? Can't remember.

 

[SunhiLegend]

What is this, replay mode? Or drone? Are you controlling the camera?

Found a good looking car while cruising, honked the horn to add car to my cruise, looked for a good stretch of road to blast down through traffic, tried to keep the Audi in front between 10-11 o'clock, used the rewind and watch replay feature to go back after a couple of nice passes, removed the HUD and used the left analogue stick to point the camera directly at the Audi.

Playground is using all of the FLOPS. All of them.

Crikey!

oh so in other words.... magic

This was the easiest drive on all roads of the three games, despite it having some short disconnected off road bits that don't show well on the map.

Ahem. I believe you overlooked this one

 

[robotrock]

This is hands down the best video game I've ever played

 

[Ghazi]

I don't play racing games but I picked this one up, are there any good resources for learning how to get around corners better?

 

[Strider]

They really should allow you to back out between online championships rather than having to wait through the voting and car select process.

First Forza game for me too, these tips helped me out:

Brake, steer, don't accelerate just let it roll while steering and while rolling out of the corner slowly accelerate again.

Brake before turning.

I'm assuming you are just keeping accelerate locked down at all times? Gotta learn to let off gas and feather or push brake while cornering until through the turn before hitting accelerate again. You'll get the feel for it and will likely go very slow while learning(the driving line helps to signal braking and gas) but with a bit of practice you will get the feel.

I recommend buying a hatchback and spending time practicing as they handle quite nicely and will let you acclimate far better than muscle or superfast missile cars.

For me it depends on the corner but if its tight break in the straight line before it and tap the ebrake button in the middle of it gassing out of it. If it is wide just let off the gas as you go into it.

It needs some fine tuning depending on the track and all but that works best to me in this game and in real life. Letting off the gas lets you get back some traction. Works amazingly well in colorado snow on the interstate.

 

[Ullus]

Would be nice if they added a option to enable arrows on the mini-map showing where other players are in co-op mode.

 

[RichiRamjag]

First (non-Mario)racing game I've brought since burnout lol. I stink at racing, but this game has won me over. Driving around with a ghastly on the side of my spec-r

So still no Warthog for me...

I redeemed the code the other day.

Nothing in my Gift Box (The only message I had was my Forza Rewards money)

I'm not seeing it in the Autoshow list.

Strange. Mine just popped up in my garage.

Are you on PC? Apparently the code only unlocks it early for console players.

Thanks, I've tried turning corners like this but maybe I'm not braking enough. I'll have to practice a bit more.

Some of these skill challenges are a bit off in difficulty.

The Bowler score 50K in 2 minutes is listed as Hard?

The landscape they give you to do it in, makes it a breeze.

Hardest part is not hitting a hill the wrong way and flipipng over

 

[Drillary Clinton]

My friend and I game share and for whatever reason I do not have Forza. It simply gives me the option to buy.

 

[Strider]

Just did the games - online adventure playlist for the first time... Pretty fun. Don't love it but it's a neat extra mode to do every now and then and it's a good thing you have that opportunity to mix things up every once in a while.

This game is so great.

 

[Mechazawa]

Groove station doesn't work in coop.

Thanks Playground. :l

 

[soundscream]

Ahem. I believe you overlooked this one

How does one request a return?

 

[Lunar FC]

Just got the game so I can drive a Fiat 500, while mine is in the shop. :'(

 

[Ecto311]

I 3D printed one of these. Works ok for steering but the elite controller already has tall sticks so it helps.

Also, Microsoft notes that the builds for PC and Mobile are the same except for "an additional fix to improve the reliability of downloading games (like Forza Horizon 3) and game updates from the Windows Store" is included for PC.

Microsoft releases Windows 10 build 14393.222 for Insider Release Preview http://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-releases-windows-10-build-14393222-insider-release-preview

Heard the PC version had problems, but it's totally unplayable for me on a more than capable machine.

Mine hasn't shown up either. I redeemed the code when they were first sent out and played on both PC and Xbox. I tried doing the bucket list race with it on both as well and no dice.

Lock it to 30fps until we get patches.

 

[Mohasus]

Thanks, I've tried turning corners like this but maybe I'm not braking enough. I'll have to practice a bit more.

I really recommend turning off ABS. Yes, that is supposed to help, but the downside is that it increases your braking distance.

Playing with it off is pretty simple, just find the spot that you can press as much before locking the wheels.

 

[Lunar FC]

It's been set to 30. :/

Do I have to do something else?

 

[HelloM0f0]

Same I redeemed the code last week...still no warthog. Super weird how it worked fine for some people and not others.

Yeah I logged into my Xbox and it appeared, now its in my PC version as well

Go to Task Manager, affinity, uncheck core 0

 

[StMeph]

As someone interested in the game, is there anything in the Deluxe or Ultimate edition actually worth getting, or should I just stick with the default? I haven't played Forzas before, so I am not familiar with what their content drops are like.

 

[Lunar FC]

Go to Task Manager, affinity, uncheck core 0

Awesome, much better. Thanks for the help.

 

[AsianOni]

Just to confirm, there is no Nissan 350z in the game, only the 2003 Fairlady Z and the regular 370z right?

Aren't these the same car ?
Or maybe you wanted a LHD 350Z ?

Is there any way to access the auction house other than by booting up the game? No companion app or web access?

Come on Playground/Turn 10, I want to be able to do my wheeling and dealing while doing other things.

How did that flip not break your skill chain? Happens every single time I accidentally flip.

 

[danowat]

The physics are just right for the game, the best horizon yet in terms of fun and driving feel, really really good.

this is what i was thinking all day
on pc you get notifications when rivals beat your times, pretty cool

 

[AsianOni]

At least we have the auction house again.

That also means (probably) the returns of the Unicorns. Well, we already kinda have them in FM6... I really hope that one day they add the tuners car like FM2.

Turning shadows completely off gives a stable 60fps in crazy areas :3

My friend dropped by Surfers to take some real-world comparison shots.

Has there been any workaround for the Warthog not showing up after redeeming the code?

Entered it on PC but I haven't seen a message in game or anything.
