Those pictures are pretty slick!

I've just got back into gaming on the XBox again, am I correct in thinking after I've watched my brother play tonight that you can't actually change the gearing of the cars like you can on Forza 4? Why!?

Cheers : )

yep, you can't really change anything. You can upgrade like fm4, but no fettling afterwards, could've been so much more this game.

If you get the rally pack you can then install rally gearboxes on cars which gives them shorter ratios. Works really well on a lot of the cars

Definitely, its a real shame it doesn't have the maps from TDU2 if it did it would be the game that it should have been from the start.
Its strange, when you open the map it looks huge. Then you drive around it in 5mins.

I still really want to like it but just find myself bored after 10mins.

Are any of the new challenges multiplayer?

I haven't seen any multiplayer challenges yet but I did have a bash at a couple of single player ones last night, there are challenges per car and some of them are timed road trips across the map or between Outposts and the longest time given I've seen is three and a half minutes which was for a standard Transit van!

Had a go at a few cars lastnight, was in an RS200 when I started the game, one for that was a skill chain on the golf course (I am generally rubbish at the skill point stuff like drifts, burnouts etc, so was doubly rubbish at this. Original Beetle and Fiat 500 (old and new) had stuff like top speed run for 10 seconds and speed camera run above a certain speed, 60mph or something like that hehe , finish 3rd in races. Didn't see any multiplayer in the cars I tried out.

You guys NEED to put all the power into that Ford F100 pickup, put some slicks and wide tyre width and put it on rally suspension. It's absolutely hilarious roflrofl

Got it a few weeks back just for something to mess about with now and again until Xbox One comes out. Had to turn the music off after a few days, as I'm sick of hearing it in various adverts on the TV! Especially the Direct Line one!

Just seen this at 15 on Amazon. Worth buying, or should I just persevere until I've completed EVERYTHING on Forza 4?

(I don't have an Xbox One yet, I still want to play COD World At War etc.)

Well I bought it, and have now completed it. What a fabulous game.

Spent most of it just driving around the mountain roads in the 205!
