I'll be up for some multiplayer. All the years of having forza games I've never tried much multiplayer.

I'll pick this up after release for mine, I think. I was tempted to go for a pre-order, but I still have my doubts so I'm going to wait until I see a few reviews which will no doubt be embargoed until after release.

Bet I can still pick the bonuses up from the XBL store though, just as I did with FH2 despite buying it a couple of months after launch hehe


I just want this to be awesome so much, and hopefully with some decent MP options like setting up a season with practice/qualy/race across multiple circuits.
I have doubts about the lunch date but as for the game, and like anything you are going to get the people who love it, others like it and some may hate it. grumble about it not being life like etc... it's a game ffs wink

I have it pre order and look forward to playing it. Just a shame it's only 10 days before the HOW on Destiney. which I will be leaving this for a short time

Ok FINALLY found some settings that let me drive....

Controller is usable with these settings!

Steering assistance on in Gameplay.
In Controls, Configuration,
Set the Controller Input Mode to 3

Steering Deadzone = 50,
Steering Sensitivity = 35,
Speed Sensitivity = 40,
Controller Filter Sensitivity = 35

Not perfect but user friendly.
thanks and will try when I get the game.

What do you mean by update the pad?
You need to connect the Micro USB to the controller to the Xbox and go to controller settings and update them to the latest updates. Worked well when I was having Headphone issues a few months back

I'm going to be one of the slow one's on this. I have the game, Been trying to get used to it but have had little time to play it so car. Only just managing to quail on the Clio's I have it set to pro and adjusted the handling quiet a bit but will take more time to get used to it

But liking it so far

Taken about 5 hour just to get the feeling I want. Doing better but slow and enjoying it but on the Clio cup at the moment.

Agreed with that. I try and keep a eye on the lights but it just revs then stays the same. Would be good if you heard you hit the limiter. rather than find out your not accelerating any more

yes I've done that so many times.
Same, it's like a diesel when it just stops pulling/reving
I've only done the Clio cup and now on the ginetta but both do the same

The more I play the more I come to realise there is no way this game could have been tested properly on xbox. It's full of bugs and yet it's been booted out the door with a pat on the back.

The developers must have had all their fingers and toes crossed on this one!
Certainly explains why there weren't many/any Xbox One gameplay vids or live streams until last week...whereas PS4 stuff have been on Youtube and twitch for weeks!
Well there goes the people who said a delay was good so the people who made the game can polish all the minor bugs out.

Can you actually do anything other than karting? Just finished the first karting one which was boring at best, now all I'm offered is more karting. I'd rather not play than do that all again.
You can start career with anything, I skipped the karts and started on Clios...they were wk so skipped them and started in Genittas
I started on the Clio and thought they were ok. as I was trying to get the steering sorted at the time and why I went for FWD, now on the ginetta also and finding them hard to get used to again. They have less power than the Clio but the RWD is making it fun but annoying so far

I can't really play this to be honest.

The frame rate lagging at brands means I can't actually control the car.
The steering locking on a megane meant I couldn't continue the race.
Any thing with RWD I can't correct any slides.

I like the game but it is frustrating. I'm not going to bother anymore until it has been patched.
I will be on this but not at the moment for the same reason

Been back on good old Destiny enjoying myself. rather than fannying about trying to set up handling for the cars on here

I've started playing this again. On the Ginetta cup only on my second season. Finding it handles better than the last time I played. Unsure if i got a update as my xbone was set to update any time.

But enjoying so far but also trying to keep my hand on Destiney as well.

found a little bug tonight on the 2nd race of the 4th round of the clio cup series where someone didn't make their mandatory stop until the very last lap so they finished in the pits and won the race, if it were real that isn't legal as far as I know and I lost the race because I was pulled in at the end of lap 2.
I heard of this before when it was first reviewed and seems it may still be happening

Selling this game this weekend. Load of rubbish and never got into it which is a first for me in 15+ years of buying, Gran tourismo , All the Forza's, F1 games etc...

Think I got into about the 3rd League and gave up as it was such a grind and not fun.

Worst money I have spent on a game since I bought a Fifa football game about 10 years ago

Never again
