In U.K and got my limited edition from Game just this minute. Uncharted 2 is going on the back burner now while I get stuck into this game Cannot wait to start playing tonight - I trust it is ok to do so, and it really was just pirates who were hit?

Online Game or local store?

Jube3 · Oct 20, 2009

Just finished the first tutorial its uploading now. I recoded a voice over to try and help but I think even then its still a little fast. My first video tutorial lol, damn I even got a little nervous when recording for some strange reason.

Online. Sorry, should have made that clear.

No problem. I called my local Blockbuster in the attempt to sway them to sell early, stating Game had broken the release date, and they flat out refused.
Will wait and see if my order with the online store progresses any further today.

A few people where I work have received Forza this morning from GAME, they are all asking is it okay to play. I wonder if Che can answer, I had my copy from Tesco online on Friday, I'd like to know if its okay to play online also.

You can play if you have a receipt, don't worry.

4-6 weeks until I get my copy.

keep the reciept and if you get banned there is a forum on xbox.com for reversing bans that is moderated and checked multiple times a day. they dont ban automatically and ms knows that a game was released early in an area they usually wont touch anyone.

bans can always be reversed

Blockbuster UK status for me is still 'Order is being processed'.
Will keep checking to see if this changes today.

Same for me. Not looking good for this week

Edit: Dispatched now. Come on you posties, 1 more day of work :lol

Jube3 · Oct 20, 2009

If any Euro Fellas want to play now let me know and I will get a room going. And p3tran you and i have a date on the strip. My Celica Supra says HELLO! lol

CaptainRizla · Oct 20, 2009

Nice! Called Blockbuster and after giving the lovely lady my order number, she advised me that my copy has been shipped out.
Hopefully will be delivered tomorrow.

Diablohead · Oct 20, 2009

I play my 360 on a 17" Samsung syncmaster since christmas 2005 and the 360 has always looked great (plus screen is shared with my pc) but last weekend we got a new 32" HDTV for the main room to replace our old 32" SD brick, decided to setup the 360 on it using vga so I can use a much higher resolution then 720p...

All I can say is that I am staring at the demo cars in the menu and it's like watching porn. :lol

One thing I really want to try out is engine swaps, as there's some really crazy ones now. Over at Forzacentral, for example, I read that you can drop the R8 LMP's twin-turbo V8, or the R10's TDI V12 into the roadgoing R8 5.2

Apparently, you can also drop the Z06's LS7 V8 into an Aveo. Would it even fit? :lol Either way, it's fucking awesome.

Holy shit.

It's so nice to have truly interesting engine swaps. I can't wait to try some crazy combos.

I dropped 200,000 upgrading the 72( ithink might have been newer) trans am to nutso area. I put in the Corvette ZR1 engine in it :lol

The engine swaps are awesome and really open a lot of avenues for different cars.

Heres the video tutorial, its a beginners tutorial. If you're capable of making characters in forza you won't get anything out of this video except maybe seeing the canvas in forza 3. If you guys who never used the livery watch it let me know how easy/hard it is to follow so i can make tweaks in my next video pls.

Awesome work on the tutorial, helped me understand the basic concept of doing these liveries in Forza. I'll definitely try to create some stuff in the game.

state_vector_collapse · Oct 20, 2009

Echoing what has been said above. Many thanks for that tutorial Jube3 - never really known where to start, but that has inspired me. Won't be trying it tonight though - tonight is race night

Diablohead · Oct 20, 2009

My blockbuster online payment for forza 3 says "order dispatched" so it's all up to the mail man now... I really do hope it comes tomorrow.

Woo - shopto dispatched!
Seriously considering playing the sick card tomorrow..

Psychotext · Oct 20, 2009

The wheels are on the way! We have sent the wheels for the airshipment and the advanced UPS shipment. The UPS shipment will have to go to Germany first and from there to the customers. We can hopefully give you a tracking number after they arrived here in Germany.

We are also now shipping all accessoires for these orders like CSP or wheel Stands.

pr0cs · Oct 20, 2009

I envy you guys who had enough beer bottle money to buy a Fanatec wheel.

Installing disc 2... But since I didn't expect to just walk into a store and get the game early (Norway) I didn't bring my wheel from storage (Just moved to a new apartment) so I guess I'll have to start play the game with a controller.. Not complaining too much though

We'll embed these in the livery thread; I'd planned on tossing some of the F2 speedpainting and tutorial vids as well.

Yep, no email but the status says it has been sent, so I hope the thing gets here tomorrow.

I will be watching Jubes tutorial with interest, if I can even get cogent shapes out of the Livery editor I will be more than happy, heh.

ExtraKr1spy · Oct 20, 2009

Got used to driving manual in the demo and wow what have I been missing all these years.

got within 3 seconds of the fastest time in the evo using the manual whereas with the auto I could only get to 5 seconds within the top time.

Also love looking around the leaderboards and finding the same people/clan/group with the top times. RSI seems to be on top of most of the cars, BLKJ(Team Blackjack I assume) are also up there in both time lap times and drift scores, a few V12 are also up there.

OneLetter · Oct 20, 2009

I've been waiting on this game for quite a while now, and I know more than a few of my co-workers are too. I still need to put the finishing touches on my wheel rig though, since I've been a belt/lap player since Forza 2.

@Jube3 - Fantastic job on the OP and now the tutorial video. I know the first image I create will have to be the Volition logo, and you've already made the NY license plate so I can keep my hometown alive. I've always been amazed by the works that m0dus, you, and the other members create. It astounds me what you guys can do with just some basic shapes and gradients and make it all come together.

Hopefully the game store downstairs will get an early distribution hookup for my pre-order and I can hop online and join in on the fun. I need to build up an 02 RSX Type S just so I can pretend my real-life car still has the turbo kit on it

Diablohead · Oct 20, 2009

haha oh wow, forgot that tomorrow we are taking my little bro out for his birthday, so no forza until dinner time

My baby will be the 22b in classic 555 paintwork, love it! Can't wait to drift it around the coast.

Yea definitely, this is what I have planned for this week.
-Basic shading
-shading the homer simpson livery
- Another character with flat shading.
-Advanced character with/ mirroring.

Also Ill have that video for you soon m0dus.

bj00rn_ · Oct 20, 2009

THe game really looks and plays different from Forza 2. I was worried about recirculated tracks, but even Sebring looks good this time around. I especially like that AF seems improved in general. Would like to see some effects on the front shield though.. But yeah, graphics are fine, but the gameplay is really REALLY nice so far. I'm starting to get into slightly faster cars now, was worried from the demo that the cars were to glued to the road, but it's not like that at all, at least during my last race.. Was tail sliding and working it through the whole race. And a beautiful feeling of racing the other cars. Love it so far. And just can't wait to do the game with a wheel!
