Relaxed, General Forza 6 Chat

Is there a program to get all different types of logos?

Not that I'm aware of, as far as I know they are all custom made.

There's a new place in my mall where you can play X-ONE games for $10/hour. I had a blast with Forza 6 and Horizon

I've made all my logos but, some of these liveries look straight from the web. Like the cartoon ones.

Yes, some of the anime ones are incredible. That's not really the look I like for a racing car, but they are still amazing and had to take hours to make.

I see. I thought they were image files. My layer counts only reach near 50 at the most. I'm learning to be patient though. This is the most I've played with the editor in Forza.

Some of them reach 500+. I can't even imagine.

All on FM6 are user made, and it's absolutely awesome. I've made a few, and started a few designs, but never really gotten around to finishing them

The creativity you see in the fantasy paint section of the official site puts the racing paint section in the shade.

Had over Cr. 200,000 so decided to buy a Fiat 595 Abarth and upgrade it to S Class. Gave it the 1.6 Turbo Rally engine and I managed to get pretty much all the non-engine parts and power was at 330HP. Changed the final drive on the transmission to get the best possible top speed (177MPH in tuning menu, hit 165MPH in race). Went into Free Run to give it a try against other S Class cars at the Nordschleife, and it was THE worst (Yet most fun) car I had ever driven. Barely managed to keep it under control, and almost rolled it quite a few times. Ended up beating some of the V8 Supercars, McLaren F1 GTR Longtail, Ferrari 458 Speciale, BMW M1 Procar, BMW 3.0 CSL and a few others. Finished 11th overall.

Just saying 'Hi' .... been a long-term GT fan ... played since original GT through to GT6 but slowly got tired of the overall feel of it ....

Bought XB1 for Christmas thanks to lots of Quidco cash and loving FM6..... its FUN!!! The cars are great and seems to be more generous at giving you cars (with the spins thing) and cash.... only been playing since Christmas and already have about 30 cars and over 1.5m Cr ....

My gamertag is highlightshadow
Happy to have some FM6 friends

I'll add you when I fire up my X1 later 👍

Was this already discovered?

I just found it whilst tagging Formula Mazda pics.

That was a promotion back in November. You got some code to redeem it. I never got it so I don't know how.

 

[VXR]

Ah, US only this time? We had the Juke one, I don't recall the Mazda promo.

It was EU-only again. We didn't have it here.

Now that is a voice made for editorial articles.

I stopped after the twelfth nasally utterance of "I guess". Shortly after "Greenballs".

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

So, why haven't we actually got any free cars recently? I mean, I would say the Silvia was the free car in December, but it clearly wasn't since Turn 10 patched it away. So, no actual free car last month nor this month. There has to be an explanation.

 

[VXR]

Some strange things afoot in this game. Between the Silvia and the disappearing Hot Wheels logos I observed, we're definitely being spoon fed something we shouldn't yet see.

His opinons carry a lot of weight, there are a lot of issues and downfalls that I fear will continue to plague the series

They really should have integrated the Silvia instead of removing it. Playes who got it still own it, so it's just locked away for interested buyers. Where's the logic in that? As for your question, I'm also wondering why. It's equally weird how the Opel Kadett isn't being fully advertised as part of the January DLC.

I don't disagree with some of the points brought up. But it's how it's presented.

There's a disdain for the 24 car lobbies and the smash-fest that result. That's not really T10's fault, as idiot drivers are readily available in every single online racing game.

Could it be lessened with custom public lobbies? Possibly. I do find it a little funny that out of the two big fanbases here at GTP – Forza and GT – both want what the other has. Public lobbies are the norm in GT, but it can be tiring having to search for a suitable room. Some people just want to jump on and play, and the hopper system allows for that. It certainly isn't perfect, but as someone who doesn't want to spend time looking for the absolute right room, it appeals. I'm not a fan of the short races, and the seemingly small pool of tracks it constantly picks, though.

I do agree that non-collision Leagues should be scored on a clean lap, time-only basis.

The complaint about the Leagues changing regularly seems like a complaint for the sake of it. If they stuck to the same one for too long, you'd hear a complaint about that, too.

I've had tons of great, clean races in the hoppers. If I find a dirty room, I leave. *shrug*

The PI system not being perfect? Expected. There are countless variations involved, and the track the cars are on will play a part in it too. Just look at the Lime Rock Hot Lap Board, and you'll see that not everything lines up. There really isn't a way to build an automated system like that without some problems cropping up. Looking at the tops of the A and S classes on the Modified board, personally, I'm surprised at the variety of cars that can run fairly close to each other, but that's me.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Wait a minute, I have to ask; do we really even need the auction house ever again? I'm sorry, but I just don't see how it could be useful at all now with how easy it is to earn money in FM6. The only use I saw in it was to sell cars for some extra money to other users or buy a car for probably a cheaper price.

 

[FoRiZon]

Is this me or why the digital cluster on numerous cars on the recent DLC's (not just January Pack) doesnt work? Case in point: Formula Mazda, TS040, Mclaren MP4/4, etc.

 

[diegorborges]

@SlipZtrEm I agree in some parts with your post, but FM6 definitely need public lobbies. I find it's multiplayer really lacking to what it could be together with all the great things the game has.

24 car races are awesome, but I've been getting more problems than fun with it. The quality of drivers is really low. You could find that in GT6 of course, but at least most of rooms had the words "dirty racing" in their titles.

It's really a matter of one game wants the features of the other. It just feel incomplete for me without public lobbies. It was so much easier in GT6, you could find what you wanted. I always could. Want some spec racing? Create your public lobby, limit the car, etc, put on the title "Miata Spec Racing", Bingo.


I really hope they improve that, because when you can find a proper hopper in FM6 online mode (after getting angry in the 5 or 6 dirty races before), the racing feels damn good.

@RandomCarGuy17 : It's my first time on Forza series, but I would love to have the Auction House. For a simple thing: mileage... I loved to find used cars in GT5 with mileage, etc... it's more realistic and interesting.

I could pay more for some rusty old beaters with stories to tell

(I don't even know how the auction house worked in the other forza games...just dreaming about.)

 

[RacerPaul]

I'm wondering if I'll ever get to the point where I'm not astounded by the lack of competence or fair play online in FM6

Just when I think I've reached my limit something comes along that takes my breath away. Crazy, just crazy

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

The reactions I get in D-Class hoppers are fricking perfect. This guy in an AE86 was boasting about how fast his car was on Silverstone National Circuit, when he must've looked back and saw my massive Vandura right behind him, looking to overtake. Suddenly there was nothing but frantic "Oh my god how the **** is that thing keeping up with me?"
Sadly I didn't manage to beat him, but it was close (only 25 feet behind). I love the Vandura in FM6. Such a great vehicle in the lower classes.

I did a bit of ghost leagues this week, that was ok. It's not the same as racing against real cars, but you don't get slammed into going into each turn. In normal multiplayer, the best rooms I've found have 10-16 cars in them. Anything over 16 and it gets way too hectic. I just move around until I find a room with the amount I like.

Even though it was less chaotic, the ghosting cars is way too distracting for me.

I also prefer the ghost leagues.

I havent played this game in about 2 months. I blame it on (Fallout 4, Halo, COD:BO3, RSS and all the other great games that came out 4th quarter 2015). So I spent about 2 hours downloading and viewing the free dlc cars. I plan to get some rivals, leagues, and some other racing over the weekend. Been way too long.
