Forza Motorsport 7: General Discussion

[ImaRobot]

Where in the menu if you know?

Create Live party so I can complete forzathon?

I click on the first one in Forzathon, and nothing happens. Do I need a certain type of car before it will let me play it?

I dont want to abuse the threads, do you want me to ask about Forzathon in that thread you linked? When I click on any of those you show in your link nothing happens.

Oh wait, now I see this post there


Thanks, this time it worked when I used the forzathon tab after the race. Just so everyone is clear on this. I set up a race in Free Play according to Forzathon, (5 laps at Maple Valley, Classic Muscle Car), completed the race, select next race and you're on the podium, collect your rewards, driver level up etc. When you get to the next race, the pre race menu comes up then select the Forzathon tab and you'll see that it registered. From there, back out and change the race to satisfy the next Forzathon quest. Thanks again Nacho Libre

Hmmm, let me see if this makes sense when I get home. Is the Live Party related to Forzathon in anyway?

Somewhere in the options menu, I believe under HUD.

You can complete Forzathon events within Freeplay, just make sure you set it to the right requirements.

The requirements needed to complete the event are on the Forzathon page. For example, the first one is "Complete 5 laps at Maple Valley in a Classic Street Muscle Division car." To see if you have any, you can go to your garage and press the sort button, which is the select button I believe, and apply the "Division" sorting. If you have none you can go to the Buy Car garage and do the same method, and purchase one.

The party was for muting Multiplayer.

The change you’re looking for is in the HUD area of the Options menu.

Get your Gears... gear.

I will be receiving the XBOX One X today, I plan on copying FM7 and other games from my external HD, I assuming I'm correct that once I start up the game it will indicate that the game needs a update for the 4K content?

They may have been already updated. I had an option to download the 4k updates to my external hard drive, a couple of weeks before I got my One X.

It depends what you had your settings on.

Unfortunately I didn't notice til today that "Download 4K content" in my settings was unchecked, I was trying to save myself some time by downloading the 4K content while on my XBOX One S, but didn't see a way to initiate 4K to my current games.

I wish that Major Micros thing was a league. The series was so much fun

I was in my VW Beetle. I felt like a mouse caught in the middle of an elephant run.

Next weeks cars are the 2000GT-R, Silvia K’s (yes, the one we just got) and Stratos.

I get that cars are bound to repeat, but with the amount of cars they have to go through it seems rather soon to already be having repeats.

 

[RazorSharkz]

Man, if the Specialty dealer is all cars that were "on disc" then I am going to be kind of dissapointed. I was hoping for some Hot Wheels, Hoonigan Bronco, GMC Syclone(or other cars we lost from Horizon 3) etc. I hope something like that happens soonish. The idea of the specialty dealer is awesome, just wish it was emplemented slightly different.

Depending on how you look at it, we didn’t get anything truly new in FH3 until December when we got the Terradyne at which point the flood gates sort of opened. They did have the Xbox Falcon the prior month, but that was in the game already via a different livery with the Motorsport pack.

Considering the amount of cars that are hidden I’m not too surprised they haven’t done any new cars yet, even with 2 ways of handing them out. Hopefully we will get some, but I think patience is key at this point.

I need a something toy car to do more forzathon, I cant buy one because I dont have enough cars bought, I am in tier 2.

So i need to buy any cars in tier 2?

 

[RazorSharkz]

We had the S14 and Warthog within a month of release if I remember right. The Gurkha carried over from FM6 as well.

 

[-Fred-]

Yes, buying more cars will unlock the upper tiers. Alternatively, choosing the car on the prize screen after levelling up will do the same.

In career do you have to do each track and each race to get to the next one?

 

[ykiki]

In career do you have to do each track and each race to get to the next one?

Each level has about 8 series and 3-4 special events. You only need to run about 4 series to move up to the next level.

Or you could use the rental Ariel Atom.

 

[Andrew R]

Yeah just do free play and rent the cars you need. I usually just go to 'race settings' while setting up a free play race, restrict it to only the cars you need for the forzathon event and then rent one.

Holy crap, now Forzathon is greyed out, "coming soon"

Wasnt I just able to click on that yesterday?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Are you connected to the internet? Did you already do the challenges? They should have a check by them if you did them.

 

[CSLACR]

Each level has about 8 series and 3-4 special events. You only need to run about 4 series to move up to the next level.

After you finish all the levels, elite opens up. I haven't counted but it's at least 12 series in each, and 5 showcase.

That is my new problem, I am disconnected from the net each time I turn the Xbox off. Great.

I would’ve posted this video awhile back, but among the issues Forza had at the start, Clips weren’t getting uploaded to Xbox DVR at the time so I couldn’t do anything.

Granted this’ll be outdated now, but for anyone who’s needing cash and has the mods to do so, here’s what I did awhile back.

Car used was a Zakspeed Ford Capri because it can take a conversion to a RWD(I know it’s already RWD),But it gets a PI boost and access to a 6 Speed gearbox, it was then upgraded to R900.

Now with the VIP bonus and those mods, you’ll have around 3.5 million give or take from this.

I blew the majorty on the Renault F1 car.

I need help please understanding this.

I assume I cant buy this car yet and will need to be in a certain category, but I will look into that in a minute. Where do I do this 24 lap race at Nurburging? Do I go to free play? Can I do a 12 lap version and win half as much? Where is this race?

Do I create this race in free play?

Thanks

Yes you can create it in free play.

As for the car, it’s in the Rare Class and it costs just under 200k, before the upgrades needed to get it to R900.

If all things are equal(drivertar difficulty and mods), I don’t see why it wouldn’t payout half as much for half the distance, although if you’re VIP, you’ll now get an extra 100% on cash anyway so actually, you’ll be getting more than half for doing half distance in theory. 👍

Drivertar difficulty was on Unbeatable and the class limit was R class to stop P class cars sneaking in.

Another tip, put race difficulty on Unbeatable and race in the rain with Friction Assist On.

Unbeatable gives you 100% credits and with Friction Assist... well you can go where ever you want as fast as you want lol.
