Forza 5 omg sploosh

Even though I don't like racing games, this launch game makes me a little jealous of the Xboners. It just looks fun, even for a racer.

Omg how did I forget. I fooled around with it the other day and made the most obnoxious car ever but the community has some sweet ones.
my BMW is

Me obviously but having friends that play so you can beat the drivatar is very rewarding

I got it and I'm not a big gamer, but honestly out of all the graphics in all the new gen games I've played so far Forza 5 is the best. It's pretty impressive. The premise of the game is the same as most other racing games, you get a beater for free and as you win races you get money and buy better cars, but the cars that you can get are amazing

The amount of money isn't too crazy. Its definitely a grind but not crazy.

I have a few complaints. Every series I have raced pays out a flat rate of 12k credits, why?

Not enough diversity in the series. They are all the same, just different cars you go against.

I love the game, best systems in a racing game. But the series are too vanilla.

Can I not qualify for races too? Starting 14th all the time blows.

Yeah I second what KK says. And from what I hear they just had an update that increased your rewards and decreased the car cost.

But I have noticed that some cars like the buggati and some Ferraris are DLC and I guess that means you have to buy those with real money then unlock them with in game credits but I haven't looked yet

you'll like it. i'm having a blast playing and beating others' times.
pretty sure we are, but i'll check tonight.

They are still working on the games economy and are apparently lowering the cost of a lot of top end vehicles with an update soon

I've checked out some gameplay vids, and I'm sold. Xbox One it is.

Nice to see some others on this board finding the world that is Forza. This game is very good, I too find it hard to play anything else at this point but I am also grinding to complete the career so I can start getting serious. To those that were asking about the economy of the game and the cost of the cars....they are doing an update where you will make much more per race, per series and the cost of the most exotic cars are being reduced by as much as 60%. Not sure when the update will be but they usually do them on Tuesdays....they are still awaiting certification though.

The real challenge to Forza is racing online, though I will warn everyone that hasn't experienced online racing that it could be the one thing that pushes you away from it. It isn't the game's fault, too many dickwads being pricks and ruining the game for others. They however can be avoided and there are plenty of racing communities that have online race leagues...I can point you towards several that are really great.

Finding tunes that are good are tough as well, tuning for this game takes lots of time and experience....auto upgrades usually tend to go more towards power and not enough grip, you won't be very competitive with those tunes. Follow me or friend me (Clay in LA), follow some of my laps and you can see the lines I run. I'm not the best but I already have about 80 top 50's or better and most of that has been in career mode, I have a lot of laps in the Forza series. Look forward to racing with some of you as well.
