Forza 2 Demo Out

Comes out tomorrow for real on the east coast i cant ####in wait
 
im dissapointed they didnt have 1gs or 2gB eclipse :(

Yeah, but most games that do have 2Gs do feature the 2GB anyway. As another 2Gb-er, we can only hope for downloadable content, but it's a slim chance.
P.S. have you noticed that is it that the arcadey NFS, Juiced, SRS, etc. have 2GB while the "sim" GT4 and Forza 1/2 have 2Ga....

PS what is your gamertag so i can add some dsmers to my list. Mine is DishonorablePig


BTW i hate EB so much - they wouldn't let me buy this game since i didn't pre-order it. "Should have pre-ordered it, bro" said the EB guy. They had a buttload of copies behind the glass for people who reserved it - mind you, it was already 8:00pm on release day and they wouldn't budge on letting me buy one - I had a gift card and i wanted to use it. Had to drive all around and found it at target.
 
I just got the game today, I'm hooked :)

My garage is going to be filled with Evo's, STi's, DSMs, and M3s

I'm so happy that the computer cars can actually be moved around. Last night I was doing the American B class championship and I was in my 68 Barracuda Formula S. It had weight reduction and weighed about 2400 lbs. The only car that could keep up was that Esperante GTLM. At 3300 lbs, any contact we had, I lost. I got tired of getting spun out and pushed around, so I bought a SRT-8 and got it up to spec. Let's just say, at 4100+ lbs, I wasn't the one spinning out anymore. That Esperante finished 3rd and 4th the 2 races I ran in the Charger. :D
 
I talked to a guy that made a hello kitty car he may give me the design for it or a prototype design to work with.
 
wireless on the 360 requires an accessory that they sell.

As far as designs, I haven't done anything special in forza 2 yet, but the sheer amount of layers and patterns we have compared to forza 1 has got me excited. I just need to think of a suitable design now. I know I ran out of layers on several cars in forza 1.
 
i just want to sell crap to make money LOL. I have a Built Carrera Gt now and a built GT3 and some other built cars, but my habbit of building cars all the way up that don't need to be has left me broke all the time. :)
 
That happened to my brother the other day. He maxed out an old 355 for the porsche/ferrari race, only to decide he wanted the 430 instead. He had to sell 4 decked out cars :cry:

Or how about the sheer number of options you have on some cars?
LS7 in a Solstice? close to 1000 turboed hp in that thing? WTF
Or how about the skyline DRIVETRAIN (yes, awd and all) in a S15? :thumb:
 
Build Solstice with LS7 and turn traction control off and then just sit back and laugh because you will just spin the tires and wheel hop all over the road. The Top Secret Supra can be launch in 5th gear from 0 Mph and do a burn out no bogging. It couldn't manage 6th, but I bet the 1000 some hp Supra can. I'm going to work on getting the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 and building it. I've seen one built around 1,105 hp and only weighs 2,200 some pounds :). That Mopar charger is making 1,000 hp it is a beast. Hey Ian how bout a lil tandum drift action tonight
 
Hey... we should post our tuning parameters... I've always wondered why people didn't share these informations.... or maybe tips on how certain things affect the car. Sure, forza does explain it all, but it's sometimes confusing...

Anyway, I bought the game the other day, all I can say is I hate any of the muscle cars that make any amount of power. I don't see how people can really enjoy driving a 67 camaro that has 650hp... it's retarded. A big boat that can't keep traction... oh and only has 4 gears.... how dumb.
 
Well I don't have any tuning parameters to share, since I haven't really delved into it that much. But as for the 4 speed argument, get an upgraded tranny. They have 6 gears. You can also make those 4 gears work for you at the first or second upgrade by playing with gear ratios. As for traction, wider/stickier tires will help, as will traction control. The boat part can be partly remedied with weight reduction and suspension upgrades. All of the cars become harder to handle as the power/weight ratio changes. I have an upgraded Audi S4 that has a 2.4 0-60, and even though it's awd it will get unstable quickly with sudden steering corrections/elevation changes. It all boils down to practice.
