Relaxed, General Forza 6 Chat

[ManteoMax]

It all makes sense now, because just the other day Manteo Max joined the ABC lobby I was in and just spectated every race.

"All the better to see you with, my dear..."

Listening too, so if you are experiencing a disruptive player and see a T10 icon in the lobby feel free to alert us so we can monitor closely. Keeping in mind that not everyone can hear everyone in game chat, and that Marshals may be focusing on something else at the moment, you may not notice immediate action. It's best just to report and let the chips fall, and continue racing cleanly. We're noticing a positive effect from the Race Marshals Program and hope to make an ongoing difference toward more enjoyable multiplayer lobbies.

It definitely helps, I just did a few ABC races with a T10 marshal in the lobby and everyone was... how to put it, slightly less agitated.

So I just need to do one race to get the falcon?

It just said to participate in the leagues, even if that means doing just one race. An alternative option is to enter the ForzaRC photo contests on the offical forums.

How long after the league ends will I get the DLC (If I'm in the top 50%, which is guaranteed at this point)? Is it as soon as the league closes tomorrow or does it take a few hours or even days?

I don't believe anything has been said about that, I would bet it'd be a day or two afterwards. The Ford GTLM or the Fallout car took a couple days to get to everyone, so I'd imagine that this is the same thing.

The codes will be E-mailed to you from ESL, so make sure to check your Spam to make sure it doesn't end up there!

I think it'll be a few days to send all the prizes due to the participation numbers. Some will likely get theirs earlier than others.

Hey guys. I haven't been on Forza in awhile, I started a new job and have been working 60+ hours a week.

I'm catching up on these two new unicorn cars, it's just participation based right? Just do a rivals time and one race in the special leagues, or do I have to put in a rivals time each week?

At minimum it's just do one league race and one Rivals time. You can increase your chances by doing all 3 weeks. Theres also ForzaRC themed photo and livery contests on the official forums that are also giving the Falcon as a prize car.

Umm.. which two unicorn cars? How do you get em? Sorry, haven't been following the discussion.

The Falcon (Open League) and Escort (Rivals (I think))

 

[AudiMan2011]

Anyone else encounter someone online who was using a downloaded custom livery that you yourselves created? I had that once in an FRC Formula Ford league lobby.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

I am very high levels of happy right now

 

[neddyie118]

Finally received my Ford Escort RS but not the Falcon maybe next time.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I got my Fords! I welcome the XY Falcon and Mk1 Escort to my ranks.

 

[yabiggoose]

Nordschleife at night in a public lobby is effing pointless.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

So I go to actually drive the prize cars I downloaded last night and XBL is acting up. Harrumph

 

[JR98]

Was about to go try out my new Falcon when all the drivatar names disappeared from the STARTING GRID menu:

Anyone else ever experience this?

 

[GroupB]

Safe to say we're not going to be seeing this hashtag for many Chevy or Holden vehicles...

Hello, I'm the fastest B-Class NSX around Sonoma Short... in the world.

I'm not looking to gloat, but I'm genuinely surprised at this. I knew I had a fast-ish lap, but I didn't expect to crack the top 200 in the Americas. You know when you find that sweet spot with a car, where everything becomes easy... This one is pretty much it for me.

 

[Nielsen]

Well done I suppose. I also found it rather easy to climb into the top 10s of FM6 leaderboards. It was back in the autumn of 2015, so I'm probably lower now. The leaderboards were my only incentive to play online, but I quickly lost interest in the oversimplified class system. My console has stayed offline since then unless there was an update to download.

 

[bremics]

So we can safely say the August DLC isn't happening?

Skipped the old release date (first Tuesday of the month) and the new release date (second Tuesday of the month).

Also, there appears to be some cocky guys in here. (Top 5-10% on leaderboards) >: (

Turn 10 Summer Car Pack is the August DLC.

What do you mean some people are cocky? Speaking for myself, I wasn't bragging. It's merely a fact that I expected the competition to be tougher.

I was joking lol. But yeah, I forgot about that pack... Was rather underwhelming. Not a bad pack, but with a racing semi and the Isseta the previous pack had a bit more of an impact.

I wish cars had their own affinity again.

I can't believe I forgot about the Summer pack.

Heh, that reminds me of an Elise 111S I tuned for Rivals at Sonoma Full back in FM4. Used it to game the system, and it ended up earning me millions. I felt so in tune with that car that I could almost decide the lap time down to the hundredth.

Also, Sonoma Short is criminally underused in the hoppers. I love that right-hander after you come down the hill.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

I have never brought this up before but I think I will now. What is with certian RWD cars that don't oversteer properly? the rear tyre on the inside of the corner spins up like nuts and not much else happens. Is this actually supposed to happen? Some of the cars that show this behaviour are the two rs escorts, the 3 series compact, the king cobra mustang and the gtv6 alfa.

An open diff. 👍

An open diff. 👍

So I can fix this behaviour with tuning?

edit: just figured it all out myself. I feel so stupid for not knowing this, thanks slip.

 

[Northstar]

I finally caved and purchased an XB1/FM6 bundle. Thankfully I remembered my old account info so at least I'll start at tier 5 instead of the bottom. For those that didn't have me on their friends list my name is RokkitShipp if you'd like to add me.

Tomorrow I will have to track down a copy of FH2 and FM5 if it's cheap enough.
