lol, no it wasn't me sir, I'm no cheeky irishman. 
Forget the cars. That console is epic!!!
I was going to enter that contest, but it's for UK folks only. It would be pretty neat to have a one in five only made Top Gear console.Forget the cars. That console is epic!!!![]()
You got my hopes up. I read this and thought "Oh yeah, today's Monday! So new DLC tomorrow!" Now I have a week of disappointment to live with.New cars next Tuesday. I can't wait. I love DLC day.
Should it? I'm not sure enough to argue with you, but I'd be surprised if it was a fourWhy does the GT500 Nissan GT-R sound like a V6 when it should be a four-cylinder?

I always seem to get shafted on those special level spins. I missed on the 25 million for level 400, only got 5. I leveled up almost 20 times yesterday, and it seems like I don't hit the 1 million in the center near as much as I did after they first changed it early last December. I think I only hit it twice yesterday, and I used to hit it on average every three spins or so.Just hit level 500 and had 153 prize spins stacked up (including level 400 and 500 special spins) so decided it's time to use them all, I started off with almost exactly 23 million, after all them spins I now have 151.6 million and a ridiculous amount of extra mods. If we exclude the 2 special spins (winnings totaled 75 million) and work out the average (ignoring potential value of mods) I was winning approximately 350k per spin.
400-500 took under half the time it took me to go from 300-400, due to more racing and less time spent in the tuning test drive mode where you get no XP, next up level 600.

I've been buying a lot of mods for the affinity and exp boosts. Those are the only ones I use. I sell all the other boost mods. I'm going to get this badge for 30 affinity levels maxed, and then see how I feel. I drove the Terradyne for the first time the other day, and I don't think I'll be maxing it's affinity.Sorry to rub it in but I think I've hit the jackpot on almost every special spin, but yeah I think they've reduced the chances of jackpot in normal spins as well, my spins in early December were 1 million every few spins but now it's roughly 1 in 10, I can't complain though it's still better than what it was before December.
If I could I'd donate credits to whoever needed them as I already have every car and all the mods I could possibly need now, I suppose I'm now on the quest for the credit cap.
With the reflection of the bright white dashboard on the windscreen, and the ForzaGlare™ sunlight, it becomes almost impossible to see out of the Rolls Wraith...
Speaking of graphical priorities, it's also great how there's always some helicopter hovering in the sky. Yesterday I was driving solo at Spa in the Alpine A110. I stopped the car so I could check the engine at idle, but all I could hear was helicopter noise. Simply brilliant! 👍
Yeah me too bud. I love new cars.New cars next Tuesday. I can't wait. I love DLC day.
Part of the changes introduced in FM5 to address the criticism of "lifeless" tracks in previous iterations.
I was trying to look it up in the Forza forums, but I couldn't find it. A couple months back someone was asking what was making all the smoke at Road Atlanta. I dont remember, but he could of asked if they were mosquito foggers. Some guy responded real serious:The barbeques running on every corner, the fireworks, the planes landing...

I suspect it's a case of "we've put so much time into developing these details, it would be a waste not to use them."I totally get it – it was a valid criticism – but they've gone overboard with the helicopters. There's three of the things on the high-speed section in the middle of the Nordschleife alone! It always feels a little ridiculous when I'm there hotlapping on my own.
Also, I refuse to believe there's that many Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Men at any sporting event.
IIRC, in FM5 when you were testing a car and maybe rivals, the grandstands were empty. The track side things and the helicopters were still there though... For me I prefer testing my car to an empty track, just for that "realism" factor as if I rented the track out for a day of Test n' Tune.It's always been kinda funny to me in any racing game to see packed grandstands no matter what you're doing there.
"Welcome to Circuit of the Americas, everyone. We have a capacity crowd on hand to watch a 2012 Scion tC drive around the track by itself."
