I downloaded the demo and gave it a go - I can;t decide whether to get this or Project cars - I want a career mode and the chance to drop in to online races but I don't want to be tied into having to play online all the time in long running comps...

I played and enjoyed GT on the PS3

This is way better than PCars IMO.

NASCAR is now here

although it seems you also have to race against GT3,LMPs etc.
Also new features like position arrows

£15.99, same as the Porsche expansion. Do the extra races on this come as an extra tab section on the menu like the Porsche DLC?

There is no way that on multiplayer this will be anything other than carnage at the start with a few people making it through and no one else ever being able to catch up.

As I've never bought an expansion pack, is there a good way to bulk buy a few of the better ones? I'd really like to get hold of the NASCAR pack as one of them.

[kowalski655]

You can buy a season pass to get the first 6 packs at a discount,but the Porsche and NASCAR ones,plus the more recent ones like Hot Wheels are excluded. You need to get them separately. They occasionally go on sale but I've not seen that happen often

[N0ddie]

Use sites like CDKeys to buy "Microsoft Money" as you can usually get £15 worth with a couple of quid off.

[theboyfold]

Thanks, I will look into CDKeys

Turn 10 select car pack DLC out today.
Includes a BMW Isetta bubble car,and its natural prey,the racing truck!!

[ajprice]

I didn't get the NASCAR pack, but I think I'll be getting this one. Even if it's just for the Isetta and the truck

[ajprice]

So an R class rotary turbo Isetta is scary and hilarious, incase you were wondering. Just over 600bhp might be a bit too much for the 155 width tyres

I bought the car pass ages ago, used it to download several packs but now it says I don't own it. Any ideas?

[kowalski655]

Do you mean that you can't download any of the first six car packs any more?
Or that its asking you to pay for this one? If the latter,its because its not covered by the car pass, its (another!) separate payment

This is just sitting on my hard drive waiting on wheel support, driving on my PC with keyboard is gubbins, it might look pretty but it's not going to displace Project CARs, there's no need to slow down for corners just blast around the barriers...disappointing. Anyone have any idea about wheel support at all?

Eh?

As for wheels take your pick, quite a few from Thrustmaster, the Logitech G920, or for the wealthier among us perhaps sir would like a Fanatec set up.

[kowalski655]

Think b2b means wheel support in FM6 Apex on a Win10 PC.
Nothing official as yet,which is crazy for a racing game,especially one with an established fan base that was meant to be a highlight of the Win10 store.
Hopefully they will have it sorted for the release of FH3 on PC, but I'm not gonna hold my breath
Did find this on Reddit though, don't know if it will work

Asks me to buy the pass again, but I already have the DLC cars saved luckily. Silly of me to think buying a car pass would allow me to access all the cars though.


Still, I like how you can race a truck now. After all, if there was one thing the online was missing it was a vehicle that makes it easier to ram everyone

Have we got a list of Gamertags for Forza 6 anywhere?

I need to compare myself, racing the AI is awful, and I'm too slow to race online...

[Pommygranite]

Just not telling with F6 like I did Forza 4:

- lack of cars - very limited
- lack of competitions/races
- chore getting cash
- still annoying lap times aren't stored
- when you quit a general drive it used to flick to an external camera showing your car driivng off but now it just quits
- try getting a good 1/4, 1 mile time etc - it just starts the clock as soon as the screen loads and quits the minute you pass the finish line.
- same old wheels from F4

Am I missing something as I really want to love this game?
