Forzathon Discussion

[Joey D]

Doing the jump was painfully boring, but only took about 10 minutes using rewind. Did some random blueprint to get the XP too.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Ended up doing the jump back and forth near the airfield. For some reason, after I got it. The Forzathon event page (in game) said I did the Bucket List event as well. But I never got the achievement.

That happened with me, too. But I went and made the Bucket List blueprint afterwards anyway and then it gave me the achievement.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Did the same thing for me too.

If you're looking for the Nissan Silvia S14 you've got another chance today to grab one.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Managed to do so myself; as it turned out, the GMC Scyclone I had bought in the Auction House for 20,000 credits was quite good at drifting (having 1500-plus horsepower and over 1,100 foot pounds of torque may have had something to do with that), so I got a 3-star drift zone on the Outback and now I'm the happy (sort of?) owner of both of the infamous S14 duo... And I'm keeping my recently-acquired one stock.



Yes, I said that. Bold is my middle name, I'll have you know...

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Well, I just got my 2nd Zenki S14; for just racing down a mountain in a Range Rover. I trying to finally win that Cross Country race in Blizzard Mountain that was giving me a hardtime while gettin 175k points.

 

[Rob192005]

Finally got my 2nd S14.

 

[GTvsForza]

The next Forzathon should have the Gurkha right?

[RandomCarGuy17]

I guess I'll try to win the Gurkha just so I can auction it off for some extra money, then I can buy some more rally cars.

 

[VXR]

I left it too late to snag another S14. At least I have one already.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Didn't even bother with the second S14 event since I already have a Zenki and Kouki which I've both hardly touched.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

I was going to grab the Gurkha for some fun shenanigans with the AI, but now that the Titan can be brought up to roughly its weight, I'm not sure there's a need...

How do you up the weight on the Titan?

 

[SlipZtrEm]

How do you up the weight on the Titan?

Add aftermarket rims, and it doubles the curbweight.

 

[VXR]

Haha, brilliant.

That sound? Oh, that's just Colin Chapman turning in his grave at the thought of all that unsprung weight.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Complicate, then add fatness. So much for elegance, eh? Those have to be rims made out of Kazunorium...

I'll try to grab a Gurkha if I can; for starters I don't have the Blizzard Expansion, and despite being slow as molasses, I find the car somewhat interesting... Besides, I worked hard to get a freakin' Zenki S14, I'm sure I can do the same for a Gurkha.

 

[GTvsForza]

It's not too hard to get the Gurkha. You just need to win a couple races in the Class 1 Race Car.

I know, I know, I just haven't driven the Class 1 yet. It's probably easy to master once you understand how it works, and you can buy it for a cheaper price because Forzathon perk, but that doesn't mean I have driven it...

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Well, I'm done with finals and the semester. So I can now take a break and get into the latest Forzathon. I'm doing the kangaroo challenge with my WRC styled Celica GT-Four and then I'll win the Gurkha so I can auction it off.

EDIT: I completed the Kangaroo challenge and I bought a buggy to win 5 races to earn my own Gurkha. I took the gurkha on a test drive of course before giving it up, took a few pictures, then put it on auction starting at 200k. I also managed to auction my buggy off and get all of my money back from it.

 

[Big Goonz]

you can win the gurkha offline yeah guys?

 

[Northstar]

you can win the gurkha offline yeah guys?

You have to be online for the Forzathon events, so no. That's my biggest pet peeve with how T10/PG handles unicorn cars.

Edit: unless you are just talking about single player, in which case yes, you can win it with single player races.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Well, someone apparently bought my Gurkha for 2 million dollars.

Yeah I was referring to single player, sorry haha thanks though

Including David Higgins' and Craig Drew's #75 Subaru....

What's the best place for getting the Kangaroo skill? It's so annoying having what could have been three consecutive Air skills broken up by Wreckage skills.

I think the best place is around the dunes near the airport in the Outback.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Yep.

 

[Craze63AMG]

I'm new to everything Forza and the like. Can someone explain to me what Forzathon is?
