Forza 2 anyone?

[Chiquae07]

Am I one of the few on this part of the forums to be eagerly awaiting forza motorsport 2? I mean, there is no new 'racing simulators' coming out soon.
PS3 has that F1 Game, Nascar 08, and Colin's Rally game, called Dirt.

Anyone up for a challenge? I downloaded the Demo of XBL, and its simply amazing. better than forza, and GT 4 according to me. And those of you that play racing sims with ABS, it is extremly easy to lock the brakes in this game w/o it.

its pretty difficult when being used to all the assists, then turning them all off.
stability control, abs, and traction control. but you're faster w/o any of them, well i am anyway.

i believe this is the only console game that has real life new car dynos, and such. true engine noises and everything. i can make a quick vid of every car in the demo revving the engine and going through the gears, as they all are different.

in their demo track, C class - i can grab a 1:05:--- in the rx8
A class - i can grab a 1:00:487 in the ferrari 430

anyone up for some AF Forza 2 action starting next week tuesday?

I'm all for it bro. I too cant wait for Forza 2 to finally arrive... It's been a LONG LONG wait... But now it will finally be here on the 29th...
I'm picking it up the very first day it comes out... Too bad I won't be able to play it 'till I get back from work, but I'll be on that same day, causing chaos on the tracks

...I have had the demo for quite sometime now, and I agree that it's simply amazing. Everything works to perfection, especially with the Microsoft wheel. Pure excellence. I only use the C Class cars, and I hit a 1:05:293 in the Fairlady Z... That's my highest so far. Also got a 1:05:942 in the E36 M3.

My gamertag on XBL is KiillaKam, so add me up Chiquae, and we'll get it on and poppin' when the game ships! opcorn:

I don't have XBox live...it was either spend 99 bucks on the wireless adapter for my wireless network, or put the 40 bucks I had on a game stop edge card from selling the XBox on Forza 2. Once I get it, I might be on Live, but I don't want to pay for the subscription for gold. Meh, we'll see. All I know is I have paid forty bucks for it already, hopefully I'll have the cash to pay for the rest of it when it comes out.

[Chiquae07]

imma see if my local gamestop has it at midnight. that way i dont have to sleep. otherwise, its a pure stand outside bestbuy at opening to get it, 10 am if im right. maybe i should stop being lazy and just preorder it to get the volk fairlady z.

but there is a bad thing about it coming out on tuesday for me anyway, i probobly wont move until wednesday night, which is high school grad for me. and i wont want to move lol. hell, i want to play it now, but where the 360 currently is, someone is sleeping. damnit.

gamertag is chiquae, so i cant be hard to miss.

i'll fiddle around tomorrow to see what i can come up with in c class, a class best times wise.

is that microsoft gamer wheel worth that 150 for the force feedback and wireless? i was wondering about it, but diddnt want to buy it and have it go to waste.

Ya know whats funny? I do pretty damned good with the thumbstick controller and all, I mean, I'm not like one of those nationally ranked guys, but I'm good. I do pretty good on most my racing games with it. But whenever I try to use one of the force feedback wheels, I always go slammng into walls and shit, lol.

Yes, the FFB wheel is well worth the money. Feels incredible, especially when you got a decent set up for the wheel... Including a stand, and a nice seat.

Keep in mind that Forza 2 is being made around the wheel, and their main focus is on making it the best driving experience in a console game possible, and to tell you the truth, with this wheel, and like I said a good set up for it... it's pretty damn possible.

And talking about the times for the C Class, when you're going to be doing the hot laps, make sure you have all the assists off... including the suggested line... That's how I drive, and it's only fair if you do the same ...

Let me know if you break the 1:04:XXX mark... I'm going to try it myself tomorrow, when I get back from work.

Cheers,
Kam

no assists at all for me. maybe for the first few laps to know the car and how much it oversteers/understeers, and how much i can powerslide w/o getting the rear end lose, then the brake only suggested line comes off.

[KamilMk]

Damn, I just can't seem to break the high 1:06 with the Fairlady Z...
My latest top is a sad 1:06:980...

I'm going to try out the RX-8 once I break into at least 1:05:XXX with the Z...

[Burnerdominator]

I will be getting it been waiting on it for a good long time. Pretty sure it will end the GT series just cuz you will have to buy alot of stuff on the actual GT5 game.

The ranking thing i got rated 900th on the first one. Been hammering the crap out of Tskuba pushing 57 seconds in a B1 impreza.

However the best person i ever raced number 2 in the world also known as 'Hangin in the lbc' his C1 86 corolla VS my spirit RX-7 B1 fastest ive ever ran on FujiMakaido downhill 1 was a 2:58 when we raced i did a 2:55 he did 2:56 i was shocked he was that damn good.

[Chiquae07]

i can get a 1:06.3xx in the fairlady. ive actually stopped using the rx-8 for awhile, as i was stuck at 1:05.8 all today. i then started to use the M3, and got a 1:05.2xx. and i was pissed cuz its damned hard to beat that time.

[KamilMk]

Wasn't able to get anything better than the score I posted with the Z yesterday... Eh, it was a bad day - oh well, I'll come back to the Z and see what I can do sometime in the future.
I raced the RX-8 and got a 1:06:013 as my best. I also was able to tell that the 8 has a much less amount of wheel spin compared to the Z, and for me it handles a lot better.

Chiquae, you're using the controler, right?
I need to fix my wheel set up, possibly get a new wheel stand or something... Was looking at Playseats Evolution wheel stand, because I can get one for about $270, and it's normal asking price is $300...
I'm just not sure as to if I want to spend that much money on it, though...
We'll see...

[Chiquae07]

yes, im using both of my thumbs, and index fingers. its rediculious. ive figured out on what turns i can somewhat drift/powerslide through and have speeds of about 78mph. i dont like the fairlady too much, but its alright. seems like it would do well at a low speed technical course rather than this high speed course given in the demo.

my top tries soo far today. dont get mad lol. and im going to try and beat them too. gotta write down the times.
