I have 22 million and I still feel bad when I buy expensive cars lol. I don't want to drive every car just yet, and I also have about 10 manufacturers at max affinity. This game is fun.

I wish I had your... level of perseverance!

The moment I bag close to 500,000 credits, I start buying up cars and boosting them... knowing fully well I may not be using them to win any championships. :lol:
 
Is anyone else having bad luck with the prize spins? Since level 40 it doesn't show any cars except when these special spins happen and I am pretty sure on the last six or so I only got 25k or 10k for a prize.

I do get cars now and then but with the money I've had stinking luck. Only ONCE did I bag 200,000... otherwise it's usually between 25,000 and 75,000 credits or a mod pack. Wonder how you get it to land on that 1,000,000 slot....

This was the first time since launch that I did not touch F6 at all over the entire weekend. Had another lan party and just decided to give this game a break for the weekend. Havent played since Thursday. I think I have somewhere near 30 wheel spins.
 
Man 🤬 Turn 10 why the 🤬 do I have to race in their 🤬 original tracks? Maybe they could 🤬 hire someone who knows how to design a 🤬 track and not a 🤬 idiot with a crayon having a seizure.
 
A fairly quiet weekend as far as the game goes, engine swaps though :) Fiat 131 Abarth with an RB26 swap prehaps. Or instead a 1M with an enzo engine in. That and 7/1 headphones ( to keep the girlfriend sane...)

Yup apart from the clunky UI very happy so far with the game.

I had about 6 million to start and since the lower tier cars are so cheap and vast I usually ended up driving one manufacturer until I leveled it up. After zi got the choice to race in any series I started saving up prize spins. I got to 20 then used em all and I got about 3.5 million and a couple expensive cars but other than that I just been cheap except for my insatiable need for GT3 cars. I'm level 167 at the moment and have 6 spins in my Q. I also attacked rivals a lot before zi started going back in to the career mode. I was struggling at "Highly Skilled" difficulty so I needed to get back in to my zone. It worked as I can now beat cars on that level by about 1000 ft.

Prague is kinda meh, but the Alps and Rio are quite fun. Are they well designed tracks? Probably not, but they're enjoyable.

From the people I've spoken to, opinion on these tracks is very mixed. Originally I enjoyed Bernese Alps but it comes up almost every other race online so I quickly got bored although I don't mind it for rivals, Rio I'm still trying to get the hang of it, but Prague is one of my favourites now, I really enjoy the sweeping corners where you end up inches from the barriers and then the high speed chicanes although I can see why people wouldn't like it so much.

--

Does anyone know if there is a way in replays to view what lap you're currently viewing? I was looking for a specific lap (28) in a replay I saved earlier and was counting to find the correct lap which took much longer than it should have.
 
Alps is one of my favourite tracks and has been since they put it in a few games ago, I like Rio, Prague is OK...
 
I like their fictional tracks. Not on the level of Deep Forest, but good for speed (Alps), or keeping it tidy(Rio and Prague).
 
I haven't spent enough time on Bernese Alps and Prague, but I enjoy the full Rio layout. Ultimately, I'd probably let all three of them go for just one more infamous real world track. :D
 
Rio can be a decent challenge depending on the event, but it's always a blast regardless. I just think it's nice to have a city circuit that's in some way reminiscent of Guia Circuit, even though I'd still much rather have the real deal.

Prague currently stands as my favourite visually, as well as one of the few circuits I don't tend to find tedious after multiple laps due to having such a wonderful flow to it. While I've always been indifferent towards Bernese Alps aside from the lower portion. I always felt a similar disinterest towards Maple Valley, Camino Viejo and Sunset Peninsula when they were still around too. The only non-recurring fantasy location (save for the speedway layout) being Sedona Raceway.
 
Sonona/Infineon isnt a fantasy track.

I find all their fantasy tracks great... infinitely better than COTA and Yas. I do find them a bit easy though but they are designed to be beginner tracks, you do end up being flat on many sections and they layout wouldnt be out of place on NFS or the Crew.

Turn10 has a knack for choosing some of the most worst of the F1 tracks, I have no love at all for Hockenheim and Catalyuna or even Silverstone.

I find that too. Trying to get a clean lap in with one of the faster cars I find to be so much fun. Then again, with age I've come to like Horizon more than Forza Motorsport, maybe that's why I find Rio so appealing, and don't mind the bumps, and subsequent air.

While I agree with Catalyuna and Silverstone (they don't do anything for me, sorry!), Hockenhiem, Yas, and COTA are great tracks, especially for testing cars. One thing I enjoy about Yas is that the North and South circuits are great for benchmarking cars.

To each their own, I suppose.

I like Silverstone they just have to bring back the old GP layout!
I agree with you 100% about Abu Dhabi, Catalunya and COTA are all dull tracks and should be replaced with something good like Adelaide Street Circuit, The Detroit IndyCar track or Symmons Plains
 
You, I like you... the old Silverstone layout wasnt too bad at all. Both GT6 and F6 have cemented in me a dislike of the new 2015 layout.

However you'll get an arguement that some people will go... "Turn 10 are lazy... they didnt update to the new 2015 F1 layout".

To be fair, Forza6 engine is so good that it has been able to turn me... I hated Long Beach, its actually quite good, Catalyuna will always be a jumped up moto gp track but its not altogether horrible. And I always stare at the big yellow oil bottle on the start finish of Hockenheim as my morning star when I run on it.

Also I'm in a love hate with American tracks. I dont mind the 2 x Roads, Laguna but hate the artificial makeshift tracks inside Daytona and Indy.

Symmons Plains looks completely boring.

The Detroit track reminds me of Long Beach, although tighter. I'm sure it would be fun in rivals but would be a pinball game otherwise.

Adelaide not bad at all and would be neat.

Also COTA is not nearly as bad as Yas. It has elevation changes and isn't made out of hairpin turns.
 
Adelaide would be awesome. It is probably, even today, the best street circuit ever, hosting some of the most iconic F1 battles ever.

The problem is that its past glories, a ghost. Who owns the rights? Who cares? Do you think the avg. Forza buyer will care about an F1 track that hasnt been used for over 15-20yrs?

I am a child of Grand Prix Legends, Crammond F1GP and the old Papyrus Indycar simulators. There's some fantastic tracks there, many almost gone from our memories.

Forza at least, brings back some of the old GPL crew, the Lotus 49, the Eagle, the Honda RA300, the Brabham.

You know what? I think maybe, just maybe Turn10 are also ex Grand Prix Legends and Papyrus fans. The other cars will end up in DLC.

The BRM V16, Ferrari 312, Cooper.
 
@TonyJZX they did name the racing series in the final volume that has the RA 300 and the Eagle, etc. "Legends of Grand Prix" that is an obvious wink to Grand Prix Legends I think. I smiled when I saw that.
