Ive had you and Gord wipe me out spectularly in the last day or two, id don't think I've done a first lap of Spa yet without someone breaking between the 1st and 2nd kink of Eau Rouge, always causing massive pileups or corner cutting avoiding action.

You need to teach your drivatar that its ok to overtake, silly guy just sat on my bumper for half a lap of Spa and wanting to trade paint :p
 
Had my first extended play of this last night after figuring out how to clear the save information after letting my step-son play on my profile. If anyone wants to know, at the title screen press and hold left trigger, right trigger, left shoulder, right shoulder than Y and it will ask if you want to clear all progress.

I am really enjoying it although sucking fairly hard, managed just 2 wins in the first set of races. What driving aids are usually turned off online? I don't want to get too used to them. Am currently at 25% bonus as have manual, no steering assist, no racing line, ABS but had to turn damage to cosmetic as I couldn't complete one of the races with it.

As I only have about 4 friends with Xbox One's and only 2 of them appear to play Forza would be nice if some extra people can add me, at the very least would be nice to see people I know populate my offline races. Username is CambsGooner.
 
Woke up to the gift of the Lotus F1 E21, but still no Tier 5 McLaren P1... kinda happy, but I want my P1.

If you purchased the Limited Edition you'll be able to choose any car you want from ForzaMotorsport.net to add to your garage..
 
Guys if i "tune" a car from say class B to class A can i change between the two classes regularly e.g A >> B >>>A>>>B>>>A etc , and if so do you have to buy all the parts again each time you switch specs or is it cheaper just to buy 2 cars the same and spec 1 for class B and the other for class A
 
I was gifted 1250 tokens last night with a message thanking me for being an early buyer of VIP.

With the 100 tokens i already had, that will buy me an AC Cobra this weekend, so i can spend my cr on a 250 GTO.

You shouldn't have to buy the parts more than once. Just save your parts setup and tune in setup manager and switch when you want to.

I haven't done this in FM5 yet, but using it in FM4 all the time.

All added :)
 
I'll add some people tonight. Probably should clean up my friends list anyway. Then hopefully we can get some multiplayer going too. Still haven't tried it.
 
I have added about 18 people through the xbox live site while at work (one of them was you Joe) but all are pending which if someone has added me should surely have completed now?
 
Whats your gamertag,, that is one thing i never thought about,, having to confirm friends requests incoming >><< not used to that LOL :)
i just checked my messages there are had one from an OC uk with the tag of TheBlackBag
 
I've got my Drivatar up to 70% Sync now, doing time attack B-class rivals.

I'm making a lot of credits doing it (40-60k + driver leveling credits for 10 laps), my F355 tune is good for Top 100 times on nearly every track i've raced it so far, i think 14th is my best so far :)

Just these tracks left to run now before the drivatar is 100% sync'd

La Sarthe - 40%
Old Lemans - 20%
top gear full - 40%
topgear east - 80%
top gear west -
top gear loop -
top gear east-r -
top gear west-r -
top gear loop-r -
yas marina north -alt -
airfield -

Feel free to add me, if anyone wants too, i'll get to multiplayer at some point. My drivatar probably races like nobody else is on track as im just hot lapping at the moment, lol

can you explain more about the syncing process mashed as in i can see the percentage mine is at ok,, but does that just raise automatically as per each additional mile ? and if so is it best to have them miles all good via hot lapping ?? having said i see you listed different percentages above,, does it work on you must do 100% per each course ? and obv as good times as u can ?

BTW bought the F355 earlier,, having a laugh :) running it A class with Worms build atm

I think the sync just takes a certain number of miles on each track to get to 100%. It might have something to do with the good turns and perfect turns as well.

I've been running 10 laps in rivals on each one, lemans will probably only need a few laps though.

If you go to drivatar in the options it has the stats for each track and how much it is sync'd to your driving.
