Forza Horizon 2 General Discussion Thread

[yabiggoose]

The clue thread is up. I reckon number 2 is the i8.

Mmmm, this car is a breakout from its brethren models, but forges a brave new path.

Where's the thread?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Where's the thread?

It's not a thread it's in the Forzamotorsports.com forum.

 

[MLRSparco]

Wish they would add a option where you could create your own open lobby like GT,really the only gripe I have against Forza.

 

[Populuxe]

It's not a thread it's in the Forzamotorsports.com forum.

You are both wrong and right, because it is a thread and it is at forzamotorsport.net.

Car 1 Clue 1

I have seen nearly as many wishful thinking guesses for this car as I did for the C6 Corvette and the 2015 Mustang. But this is far from similar to these American beasts.

Car 2 Clue 1

Mmmm, this car is a breakout from its brethren models, but forges a brave new path.

Car 3 Clue 1

The Smoking Tire, smoked some serious tires in this ride.

Car 4 Clue 1

Jumpin' Jehoshaphat, this little brother is worthy Don Johnson's approval.

Car 5 Clue 1

Is it European or classic JDM? You wouldn't know unless you know.

Car 6 Clue 1

Even Johniwanna knows that this car set a new level of expectations in rally and in production.

 

[Xavier2342]

So what did everybody spend their monthly in-game credits reward on? My plan is to purchase all the expensive cars in the game and all I have left are the remaining three or so cars that cost more than the Shelby Daytona. I've been doing a lot of head-to-head races lately (don't really feel like doing another road trip) and it has helped out a lot credits wise but not so much XP wise.

 

[Populuxe]

I haven't checked in yet today, but I've already bought the most expensive of the classic cars. The only million-plus car I have left to buy is the Ferrari 250 California. I'll get that and the original GT40.

Surprisingly very well, as far as I'm concerned. I myself was super bummed because i did not have the funds to drop on a new wheel, but the controller with the new vibrating triggers really does add that extra level of feel thats usually missed on a controller.

Sim steering though is extremely touchy with the controller now, as opposed to FM4 of FH1.

Im still aching to use a wheel though.

I don't bother hooking up my TX for FH2 as I spend most of my time on the PC. But, I think it handles great with a gamepad - and I'm not much of a gamer so if I can use a gamepad with FH2 anyone can!

Can you also map the buttons any way you like? I prefer using the left stick to steer and the right one to accelerate/ brake, changing gears with the shoulder buttons. I'm actually faster like that than with a wheel

If i'm not mistaken there were only controller presets with FM no?

 

[yabiggoose]

Welp I can't guess a thing from those clues.

Volvo 850R? Complete guess

BMW i8 is a good shout

Car 3 Clue 1

An AMG?

Citroen DS3 Racing or VW Polo R or MG Metro

I have no idea, need more clues.

Yes, Default Layout 12 is LEFT stick steer, RIGHT stick Accel/Brake, and shoulder buttons gears.

 

[yabiggoose]

I bought two cars with the 1.5mil monthly bonus I got.

Man, someone put in some serious work... lol... That's awesome, even if you decide not to play FH2 for a month, you'll have enough cr to purchase those two cars with the monthly reward. 👍

Hino Contessa

Car 6 Clue 1

No clue

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Wth is the Hino?

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Everyone thinks the first is the 4c, hoping it is.

Clue 2 sounds like the m4, and 3 the challenger hellcat

 

[MagpieRacer]

Yeah, I will change my guesses to these:

1: Alfa 4c
2: BMW M4
3: Jaguar XF-RS
4: Ferrari 550M
5: Toyota 2000GT
6: Peugeot 205 T16/GTi

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Everyone is saying i8 or m4 for the 2nd one.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Hellcat and 4C seems a bit rich for one pack, the Chevy SS seems like a more 'realistic' option.

 

[MagpieRacer]

I personally dont understand why everyone even wants the Hellcat so much.

 

[Populuxe]

Wth is the Hino?

Hino Contessa 1300S.
Peter Brock raced them in 1966 before he moved on to the Datsun 510 and 240Z. The European angle? The car is based on Renault 4CV architecture, and the body was designed by the Italian design house Michelotti.

707 HP

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Quoted the wrong person.
@MildAshers
Because big Murican muscle car.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

I personally dont understand why everyone even wants the Hellcat so much.

Because finally there's power to back up that sexy body. Brum brum indeed.

 

[neddyie118]

There is a rumor over at Forza Central forum that clue 3 will be the 2014 Chevrolet SS

 

[VXR]

Would be an odd inclusion for a game set in Europe, when the VXR8 is the imported Holden in the UK.

 

[MagpieRacer]

707 HP

Need more AMG cars then

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

But the challenger isn't limited to 155 mph.

 

[ClydeYellow]

Hellcat and 4C seems a bit rich for one pack

It seems they are going broke with the Horizon 2 DLC. First one had four cars out of six that were never-seen-before, including the newest Clio RS and the F-Type. Remember what we got with the first Forza 5 DLC? I am optimistic.

 

[Populuxe]

Need more AMG cars then

So you want to pay more for your 707 horsepower?
