Never played any of the Forza games before, but I'm planning on picking this one up. I do not currently own an Xbox 360, and I see there are several different versions available. Is the 4gb arcade model enough to play this game, or do I need one of the ones with a larger HDD?

Guess I'll just bite the bullet and pick up the 250GB version. That'll leave me some room for other stuff if I decide I like the Xbox more than my PS3. Excited to race against some goons!

I downloaded the demo last night and I have to say I'm quite impressed, and can't wait to pick up my copy after work Tuesday. After a bit of getting used to the controls and the game itself, I put up a 1:47.7 with the Zonda. Adding my gamertag to the spreadsheet. I'm new so I need new friends!

Q_res posted:Alright, someone was asking about install size earlier. With all the DLC, Disc 2 installed and a game install it weighs in at 11GB. 7.6 GB of that is the game install, so Disc 2 + DLC is right around 3.4GB.

Minimaul posted:Since we're all 'new' to the game, now would be a good time to start taking assists off and learning without them - if it's something you'd want to do. If you start now in a few days/weeks you'll be way better. It's better to do it now than wait and say "I'll turn off assists when I'm more familiar with the game." When that happens people are too comfortable to change effectively. Something to consider if you have an interest in driving without assist. Otherwise, keep on rockin' in the free world! haha.

For anyone that was racing against me in the Range Rover just a while ago, I'm very sorry! It's fast in a straight line but I spent most of lap one on my roof!

I've never played any other Forza games and I thought I'd try something simple for my first paint job. I grabbed the Gulf logo from the storefront. The colors look weird on my computer...might need to edit them a bit.

ChocNitty posted:On my quest to build the quickest F class track car, I tried the old Toyota: What is the fastest F Class car you can make? I've messed around a little bit with a Ford Ka and the Kia cee apostrophe d and something else I can't remember, but it seems that once you tune them to 200 their performance is pretty close. Running around Top Gear Test Track and Bernese Alps, the 200's I've tuned have all been within about one second of each other. I'd be interested if there is a more obscure choice that can be made a couple seconds quicker.

If you buy a car in the shop and then go to quicktune, does it apply the same upgrades as if you choose the car as a prize car?

Pees With Boner posted:Is it just me or is the difficulty in the World Tour mode significantly higher than if you just do individual events? I usually set the difficulty fairly low because there's no pre-race qualification in this game so I can't mess with the settings before every track (and wouldn't do so even if given the chance because all the races are like 5 laps/who cares)

Tonight I decided to learn how to use manual + clutch. I ran a bunch of laps on the Starter Car Open Top Gear track and managed to get up to Top 5% with a :45.536. It took about an hour to really get the hang of shifting down, and the gains are pretty noticeable. I'd recommend everyone give it a try if you haven't yet.

xzzy posted:Really all it comes down to is the "other stuff", like which console a guy owns, or whether the user interface outside of racing is any good. I find Forza 4 to be a much more enjoyable game to play because I don't have to gently caress about trying to find this or that option in some retarded menu, and I don't have to wait for a specific car to show up in the used car lot so I can complete a race series. I never played GT5 online, but the single player mode between these two games isn't even a competition, Forza blows GT away.

Quick question about adding power to cars. Is there any reason to go with one certain engine upgrade over another? I know that some of them like exhaust can reduce the vehicle weight as well as add power, and some add weight like the oil coolers. However, say I need to add a couple points to the PI...is there any reason to upgrade the exhaust to the next level instead of an air filter upgrade? Or the fuel/ignition upgrade? I've tested a couple cars but my sample size is low and the results are fairly close but not exactly the same...was hoping someone could shed some light on this for me. Thanks.

jadebullet posted:Could someone please do me a favor and quote me the set up rules for the race this Wed. It would probably be a good idea to post it again just in case new drivers want to race in it this week. I have a question about the setup, thinking about racing this week. It says "Chassis Reinforcement and Roll Cage: Race" but does that mean we have to use the Race setup, or can we use anything BUT the race setup? It's confusing to me because the heading above states the cars can use anything except what's listed below.

You can usually trick it into giving you something closer to what you want to race in. Try going changing into a couple different classes of cars and it will change up the events.

How do you register for the Hyundai Veloster: FM4 Championship rivals challenge? When I try to access it it says it's "only for registered Forza Motorsport 4 players." Yet it does not give you any instructions on where to register.

Cannot Find Server posted:I think everyone who beats his time gets a Ferrari 360 CS, regardless of region.  Also, I was getting close to beating CJ Wilson's time but falling just short. Figured it was as good a time as any to turn ABS off for the first time. Two laps in and I had a time in the 1:12's. My question is why does turning off ABS let you stop better/faster/more efficiently? I was pretty good at not slamming on the brakes with ABS on, and didn't see the indicator flash up all the time. But it seems that with ABS, you could brake a lot harder and the car would compensate for it. I guess I understand that I am faster with it off, but I don't get why that is.

There's been a few new people in the past page or two, so I just wanted to let you guys know that we'd love it if you raced online with us, even if you're not that fast. Sure, we've got some people who are really good at this game, but there are plenty of people who aren't (me included). One way to get a lot better fast is to race with people who are faster than you. I've gotten a lot of pointers during races that have decreased my lap times. Of course, the more time you play, the better you should get. Also, turn off those driving assists!
