I've read the credit bonuses don't continue past level 150. I'm not short on cash now, but if that's true then what's the point?
 
Looks like I'll be reworking my Datsun 510, Lotus Elan, and Pinto tunes. How are those cars affected but the Spark and rwd Civics aren't? :odd:

Ouch. I don't need money but yeah, what's the point? Just bragging rights, which something Greenwalt seemed to be a little put off by, yet here it is.
The XP needed per level will significantly increase once level 400 is reached.

Crap, really? Guess I'll continue sitting on my 14 million just in case...
 
Well bad news. Whatever past xp you have banked up over level 150 doesn't carry over. I'd probably be close to 300 by now but it didn't give credit for any of that.
 
you don't do it for cash anyway,much faster with rivals mode.
What about people who don't have Live and can't do Rivals, or in my case, who just don't want to do them because I'd rather spend that time working through the Event List? I was looking forward to more credit bonuses for levels...I don't give a crap about bragging rights.

Either way, i think you get more exp from rivals mode after a few laps than racing in the Event list. As for the credit bonus, thats kind of sad. I wanted to see how much it goes up to :(

Then just pretend the update doesn't exist just like it didn't yesterday. Is there really a need to sound as if you've been treated so unfairly? You haven't lost anything, because you never had anything to begin with, neither were you promised it.

We're lucky we even have the option to gain extra bragging rights via an update in all fairness. This is the first time Turn 10 have actually added features to a forza game in this manner to my knowledge. Usually it's either cars, tracks or bug fixes /end

I'll be happy if the update doesn't create additional problems, just like every other patch ever created in the gaming world does.
 
I'm not going to pretend...that's silly, but I'm also not going to pretend I'm not a little disappointed to hear you don't get more credits. It just would have been nice to earn some more cash as it's pretty hard to come by. Am I going to incessantly complain about it like a petulant, little child? No.
 
I think it's pretty lame to allow the levels to go up to 999 just for bragging rights. It would have been nice to have some sort of money, even if it wasn't the several hundred thousand that you got for the levels before. Sure you can get money from Rivals, but not everyone can play online all the time.
 
They did not keep track of XP, as I expected, and they increased XP from 50,000 to 100,000 when leveling up.
Oh, garage scrolling is soooooo buttery smooth.
 
Could they not have made the level cash a complete cycle. Like once you reached 150, level 151 cash reward would be what you got at level 1 and so on and so on if you get me lol

Basically every 150 levels it resets back to the lowest cash reward




I mean i'm not complaining there isn't a cash reward anymore as rivals prints enough as it is lol but thougt that would of been a good way to do it.
 
While I would expect them to add some sort of rewards for leveling up after raising the levels extremely high, I'm not bothered by it. But then again, I'm only level 36. I may feel differently once I hit 150 myself.
 
My replays don't show if a lap was clean or dirty. Is that a new "feature" in this update or just my replays? Or maybe they never did show the triangle?
 
I've never figured out how people are making so much money from rivals mode.

Anybody please explain?

Don't just think you can only do rivals against your friends, you can always try and beat the person 1 place higher than you, best thing to do is not go for your best time on your first go instead, hold back

I always try and go as fast as possible from a standing start, once the times become quicker I then have to do an extra lap, but once I spent about 3 hours in Rivals on the same challenge and got about 3,000,000 from it
 
How's are the racing lobbies. I'd heard that they have been crashing.
I haven't raced in awhile and I never had problems prior.

To those who had issues are they resolved?
Maybe a bit early to tell ATM.
 
I got on to check which cars of mine would need to be retuned, and luckily my Pinto, Elan, and 510 weren't changed. Out of nearly 200 cars, only my '69 and '79 Camaros were affected by the pi adjustments. :)
 
Just downloaded the update and checked my cars... only 3 needed retuning (I don't have many or use the muscle cars)
They are affected as follows

- Lotus elan moved up 1 PI to C351
- Mecedes 300SL moved up 1 PI to B426
- Alfa GTA moved up 19 PI to C369

I'm surprised my GTA got affected as much as it did compared to the Elan since my Elan can usually beat some of my slower C425 cars:odd: oh well.

I've still got to check the multiplayer lobby to see if its any better.
 
Went online last night and it was smooth and quick, no crashing, even had some good banter with some funny guys.....Forza online for once was a happy place, as much as i love the game i'd all but given up with online due to the game crashing before the race starts. It got tiresome very quickly.

But now i feel i'll be hitting online ALOT.
 
I'll reserve judgment until I get a chance to play online..but T10 said the lobby crashes were caused by a memory leak tied to cars with liveries. What about all the crashes in lobbies with bone stock cars without liveries? :odd: I hope the lobby crashes are fixed but I won't get my hopes up until I put in several sessions in several different lobbies.

That was because of people who were in lobbys with liveries moving onto bone stock car lobbys and the leak following them
 
About the liveries...I noticed last night that my custom liveries were NOT on any of my cars that I raced online....Weird...Then when I tried to buy some liveries in the Storefront all the liveries where blank
