***The Official Forza Motorsport 3 Thread***

I didn't really like Forza 2, it took a lot of getting into before it was actually fun. The demo showed gave a good driving vibe so I am still interested.
 
This is more like it...

Best review that I have come across from a real fans perspective.
Also check out some of their incredible photos.


VVV Review

Whats your view on this line?

"the basic MS pedals are substandard and lack rumble, the standard Fanatec pedals are even worse bordering on completely useless."

Thats a bit worrying given I've just shelled out £300 for the Turbo S Wheel with those pedals...
 
On the 2 main game retailers when I choose to have 2 copies of the Limited Edition ordered it doesn't let me choose Special Delivery (i.e. not Royal Mail), but it does for a single copy...so if I choose to spend over £100 I can't have Special Delivery? That's awesome!

I need to order my mate a copy. :/
 
@ J1nxy
Yeah I was a bit shocked in reading that as well.

He doesnt say what is useless about them though.
I would only assume he hasnt used them much as they do have a different feel of travel and lack of tension in the throttle. Likely hes used to the X360 pedals and it always takes a while before being able to adapt to something thats so different to what your used to.

They certainly arnt any worse than the likes of DF-GT or X360 Wheel pedals.
I can assure you that mate.

BTW even the CSP take a LOT of tunning and changing to get the ideal feel.
Im still tweaking at mine yet, more out of habbit than anything else.

Their hasnt been one single review YET that comments on the Turbo S wheel with the Club Sport Pedals new features, both in ABS and Throttle vibrating. (Beta wheels dont support these yet and SRT didnt test the game with CSP and their "Retail Wheel", just typical they have one of the first retail wheels and dont bother testing it properly. I guess saving that for a later review. Anyways see their latest video)

Will do my own review/gaming experience based on triple screen play with the full wheel and pedals at some point.
Looking forward to that......

Ok so on that basis I don't need to worry too much? As I didn't mind the 360 or DFP pedals at all. Worst case I guess is I don't flog the G25 and keep it for its pedals?

G25 pedals are hard to beat tbh

On a different note I see that some guys on the .net site and from neogaf are trying to comfirm if the game allows the changable FOV like FM2 did. Not that I tried this myself but aparently in the multiscreen options you could adjust the centre screen even if you didnt have the others setup.

Did any of you guys do this trick in FM2?

The drag mode sounds a bit gash with the CPU controlled revving. That was one mode I was looking forward to playing lots of.

I hope they release a patch to remove that like the thread on the FM3 forums requests.

Can't believe any of the play-testers missed this. First thing I noticed with the demo, was hoping it would be rectified for retail.
