Forza (1) Rant

[GravelBen]

Just been having a bit of a session on Forza 1 tonight(as I don't have Forza 2 or a 360), and got to the stage in the game where I've been reminded of how much that Saleen S7 pisses me off! in the 447kw/600hp class I though ok I'll try something a bit different, built up a 445 kw 1050kg Esprit, full mods slicks and an OKish setup. and the Saleen can just drive around the outside of it. Doesn't help that whenever the S7 comes within 50m or so about 20% of my grip suddenly disappears. Not sure how they figure the aerodynamics for that one

So anyway as well as ranting I had to wonder, did they ever do an xbox live fix/update to give the Saleen a more realistic grip level? I've never bothered with playing online. I mean the road Saleen has significantly higher brake and corner stats than a 911 GT1 Le Mans car FFS! What were the game makers thinking?

Maybe its because most of the game is still very good (well, apart from engines 100m away being louder than the one which would be 6 inches behind your head) that it hacks me off so much, but still...



anyway, I'm off to find out which race lets me unlock the S7. I may as well use the invincible car too

Just buy an Enzo, that beat everything for me.

Well I managed to beat it with a well-tuned F50, but I'm still wondering how much Saleen payed the programmers to make their car defy physics...
