But you've already started FH3, according to the Hub, so no more tier rewards due....
It only registered the DLC purchases that came with the Super Duper Ultimate Extreme Supreme Incredible Edition.

I haven't actually started FH3 on the XB1 yet.
 
Of couse I just had too

This is the one I bought In the auction house. I was able to snag most of the barn finds except the more expensive ones for a decent price than what the game said they're worth.
 
Has anybody else had issues with skill songs not working? The last two have announced it on the radio but haven't had any effect.:odd:
 
I'm starting to believe that heaven is an Ariel Nomad at full throttle in the outback with a Y button so I don't have to worry about dying. Of course if I'm in heaven that means I've died so I shouldn't be worried about it. I'll come in again.

I find the Reliant a lot better than people suggest. It's very light and quite agile considering it lacks grip on the front tire. The physics work surprisingly well, making it easy to flip when you want to flip it, but it's also easy to keep it on all three tires if your careful. With the bike engine (that sounds more like a twin cylinder; almost like a Ducati engine) the thing is reasonably fast. That's only on paved roads though; on gravel or any moderate jump it will flip!

@Northstar Skill Songs apparently work on free-roam for me. Not sure if they have some effect during or after a race.

I have no issues keeping it up right either, it's actually rather fun to drive as well (haven't done the engine swap yet).

I was in free roam. I'm giving my XB1 a rest as I've been on it all weekend, hopefully that helps.
 
The suspension on the Baldwin Trophy Truck isn't modelled correctly. Springs are much too firm at even the lowest setting, and it doesn't have nearly the suspension travel it should. And I just can't seem to get the dampers dialled in. (That's mostly a 'me' problem, though) it should absorb practically any moderate bump you through at it, but it skitters around as if you were trying to drive off road in a kart. If you've ever seen a trophy truck in real life, or have an understanding of their suspension, it's rather a jarring comparison. Pun intended.

I rarely do engine swaps, but with the Reliant it's not too crazy. Engine makes about 190hp at A LOT of RPM's. Feels quick, but not too crazy quick. Well, maybe a little... Only problem; it's easy to surpass the grip limits of that tiny front tire :D
 
Anyone know how to get your own music to work? I uploaded some songs to my OneDrive but I keep getting a playback error.
 
Even though the Groove Music free trial only lasts 14 days IIRC, ( secretly hoping it only stops me from adding more songs and let's me still play the ones I have already.) It's already given me some great moments like running the first showcase again listening to Foo Fighters' Learn To Fly and cruising through the Outback to ACDC's Back In Black. :D

By making a great game and adding the right songs to it yourself, those moments of brilliance are amplified. :)

It's hard to properly describe, but it just seems... right.

It's no question the best driving game of 2016, GOTY candidate as well? it makes a good case for it. 👍

I think it's 30 days? But yeah you're right, there's so many great driving songs that have never been in racing games, and are such a blast to drive around to. I may get a month or two of it, it's so easy to use.
 
Currently driving the Transit supervan fully decked out, but painted white with black bumpers and basic rims which surprised a few other players in Online Adventure mode when I kept up with them in a race.

Loving it.
 
The BRZ is rather fun even though it's hard to control (can you de-tune HE cars?). I sold my HE M3 as it was just terrible on top of being ugly as sin.:lol:

I just hope we can get our hands on the HE XJ220 soon as it looks amazing (you can see them all on the Horizon Promo screen).

Wind some of the rear camber out and it will make it a lot easier to control.
