Forza 4

[i-bert]

hey ibert so you using a pad at the moment......well would like to know what times you are getting on rivals with what car if you dont mind please?

decent pedals is where its at! more specific a decent brake pedal, when i put the nixim mod in my g25 pedals WOW what a difference it made, easily improves on lap times

The only one I have put a few laps into is the Zonda event. My time is a 1:41.325. Going to have a quick blast now as I can get a little more off that I think.

edit - Just got a 1:40.874

Eek, just ordered a CSR wheel and CSR-E pedals :|

That is great news. Money very well spent.

Nice one. My finger is hovering over that buy button.

Do it. You know you want to

Have to say I'm not keen on these shenanigans GAME Group exclusively having the LCE at MSRP only and it's Launch Bonus Pack which seems to be limited to early orders.

Alright did a 1:45.something with a clean lap put me up to 7 thousand and a half ish in the table quite pleased with that and know where I made mistakes.

Also go the final 2 achievements to do on FM3 now. \/

Wil be ordering this tonight now.

****** AWSOME!

Being level 50, this will give me a nice boost hopefully

That import news has been up on xbox360achievements.org for ages.

I'm gutted I lost my save after getting to level 50...

nice time, im using a pad even tho i have the pwts, this is the first time ive used a pad on any sim type title...theres something weird going on with my times tho, i got a 142.217 that showed for a while on the leader boards. then all of a sudden my time changed to 149.*** and im actually better off in the leader boards??? then i got a 143.*** and it took me right up in the leader boards.....now when ever i get something lower than 143 it doesnt register....guess its a glitch in the leader boards or maybe its because im not used to forza system because i dont really play it, only played 3 on and off and never did time trials.

i think i will get f4 once ive completed f3 so i can get free cars and stuff.

oh and what aids are you using ibert, im using manual and normal steering, everything else off.

It sounds like your original 1:42 was invalidated because you went off track, drafted or hit a wall/another car. Valid laps always come higher in the leaderboards than invalid ones, so a valid 2:01 will be higher than a invalid 1:39.

Your fastest lap in the HUD will always be the fastest valid lap you've done, even if you've done a quicker invalid one.

I think that makes sense. I've said valid a lot.

Bah, I'm nowhere near level 50 on FM3, and I don't have anywhere near enough time to try and get there. Oh well, I guess I'll have to do it the hard way

I can't see any reason why not.

Very positive review from Eurogamer even if the text doesn't seem to suggest the score given. I can't help be a little disappointed by the small number of new tracks over FM3, and that it looks like the new Silverstone layout is not included.

 

[antijoke]

IGN gave it 9.5.

 

[K@rl]

Not sure where to order this from. I have some dosh on my PP account that can cover it and I see GameStation allow PP payments. Will they deliver on the release date?

I know its most likely been asked before, but is the LE version worth the £20 premium?

 

[GravyMonster]

Just remembered my best money making ploy in FM3, which I'll re-do in FM4.

1. Make a 'Tesco Value' vinyl and sell it.
2. Make a 'Tesco Value 911' design on a Boxster and sell it.

IIRC that made me about 1m credits last time
