Thanks for the invite earlier (Legbone, Soundscream, others). I had no idea about the online co-op challenges but I got two of them done thanks to that lol. Me and Soundscream had a pretty epic crash with our Ferraris haha (I was in the white F40 that went flipping thru the air).

Aren't you guys all in the Club? If so I'll just send an invite to everybody that is online ^^

 

[Megasoum]

Hahaha one of the purple event "Chevrolet The Chevy Chase"

 

[hillsighed]

Gaf club invite sent for coop challenges. hillsighed are you in the club? Need your GT to send you an invite if you aren't.

I'm in the club, my tag is Scrooge McDuck. I should have really mentioned that, my bad. lol

 

[op_ivy]

my wife was cracking up that the game was asking if i wanted to take on scrooge mcduck on such and such rivals event, lol

 

[Duriii]

So, did anybody found out what triggers those barn finds "challenges"? Had 6/9 since like day 2, and those radio announcers talks about anything but that...

Maybe it depends on the radio stations, that I listen to in freeroam mode? Usually I only drive to Pulse and Bass radio stations, maybe I should check that Rock station tomorrow, so it will somehow trigger those...

i dont listen to the radio and the festival promoter chick will still chime in from time to time re' barn cars. i dont think its a radio thing, just keep progressing in the game by doing the challenges and they'll keep coming

Also, 99% of my Laps are 1 second behind yours. I tried but, I'm still a bad Forza driver since ever.

forza horizon just makes you feel like a scrub, doesnt it? every time i log on i see 400+ new messages about everyone from gaf that is faster then me.

I want to disable speed trap messages, 99% of them are "someone beat your speed trap!" so I just delete them all.

I can't take them serious, they are so many! Everyone beats me but I love when I beat GAFfers for those milliseconds... Muahahaha.

i havent attempted any rivals or redos (and definitely not those lame speed cameras).. but i'll be coming for them... soon.

Do I need to do that if I'm already in the club or it's just for new member requests?

 

[H3rTz DoNuT]

Only if your request wasn't accepted yet. If you are member already you don't have to do that. That's why I had to kick so many people lately, just to make sure I have only GAffers there

 

[mickcenary]

Dudes. If I opt to ignore the multiplayer aspects for the most part, will the game still be engaging enough? After 100 hours of shooting things in their critical spots, I really wouldn't mind getting behind the virtual wheel.

Oh yeah, there's a ton of stuff to do offline. No worry there.

 

[watership]

The making of Forza Horizon

Oh man. The comment section. smh. People really think that the praise and attention FH is getting is because of Microsoft money.

 

[Gek54]

Earlier I was complaining about insane being too hard in some races, turns out the Fanatec pedals were only registering maybe 70% throttle.

i havent even touched online. the game excells at having a pretty damn good driving model and a huge world to race in. its pretty fucking awesome that nearly all of the games huge amount of single player races (p2p, p2p street races, and circuits) are unique to that event.

 

[Fox Mulder]

I only need one more discount sign, ugh.

Awesome to hear. The photo thread has sold me, I think. Shit looks veeeeery nice.

 

[Neuromancer]

It's probably under the icon for something else like a race or outpost. Have you tried removing everything from the map legend except for discount signs?

 

[nhlducks35]

So what have you guys won from the slot machine online?

I've won 900,000 CR, a Ferrari 599XX, and a Ferrari 250 GTO.

 

[Neuromancer]

Wait what slot machine?

 

[Kikarian]

Wait what slot machine?

When you rank up online theres a little Mini slot machine which either gives you a good/poor car or a lot of money to use on Singleplayer.

 

[Diablohead]

I've won 5 cars and I am only level 14, otherwise the most money I had was like 60k in one go.

 

[meppi]

Oh man. The comment section. smh. People really think that the praise and attention FH is getting is because of Microsoft money.

Heck even on GAF, Sonybots are calling Richard Leadbetter out as a Microsoft guy when things don't go their way in one of his articles.
Shows just how clueless they are when they say stuff like that....

At least we something like this would get them banned here:

hey xfaggots! want some good graphics?! look at GRAN TURISMO 5

xbox just cant run decent graphics !!

SMH. :-/

 

[Kikarian]

Two photos of my Lambo. I really can't get over the scenery in this game (Pun intended)...

 

[trinest]

Man I love the matt paint.

As for senery. I'm over it. The whole game is that nasty dirty brown country side. Hardly any verity

Still love it tohugh

 

[hillsighed]

At level 32 or 33 now, and the best things I've won are 500,000CR (something like that), and a car worth a million CR, which I promptly sold for 900,000CR.

matte paint is the best paint.

 

[mickcenary]

Are super primo cars somewhat hard/time-consuming to obtain? I don't like it when racing games give you their best shit from the get-go.

have you seen the tree tunnel? definitely not brown.

 

[Gravijah]

If Horizon sells, this could become a Treyarch/IW-like situation with each studio alternately releasing a game. Two year development cycle, one game each year, shared assets - it's super-effective.

what i'm hoping is they'll be allowed to do Forza Horizon 2, but , you know... Forza Horizon 2. they should be given the freedom to do what they want to do.

 

[op_ivy]

a few hours and you'll win some good rides - the aventador, and have enough cash to buy whatever you want. its not a grind and they arent just given to you. its a good balance IMO.

 

[TheBryanJZX90]

Hi guys, quick question... Is the game region free?

I also wanted to know this (sorry if this has been answered already, a search of the thread didn't turn up anything). I got burned for the first time with my Japanese 360 when I bought the American version of Forza 4. Can I play the US version of Forza Horizon on my Japanese xbox?

 

[scorcher59]

game is fantastic, not having live i've been spending most of my time cruising on the '54 300SL love the sound of the inline-6 at around 4-5k rpm, the girl on the radio keeps telling me to go do showcase events BUT when you have that sunset+pink floyd+300 SL+ canyon cruising well it's just <3

 

[Lima]

Some great fun doing the free roam challenges guys!

Requested to join the club now

GT is Revolver Ned.

After putting in a bunch of time over the weekend, I'm pretty disappointed with the soundtrack. It's really my only complaint, but they really needed to add more tracks. Shit just repeats so much, I'm now at the point where I turn the radio off and now just play my own music. Hopefully for the next game they can put in some more variety/quantity. Other wise the game is fantastic.

 

[Lima]

I only have the music on when cruising. In the actual races I turn the radio off. The sound of the car is my music.

 

[KoukiFC]

Just picked this game up along with an Xbox 360. MS owns me now.
