anyone got a car that can wheelie off the line f&f style?

i got a renault 5t that pulls a wheelie on lemans at about 160 its quite fun :rasp:

Updated this last night, didn't poke about looking for any glitches etc but did get to see the shift animation. It's basic and as with all other games there's a delay but in fairness it doesn't look as daft as having the hands stuck to the wheel constantly so it does the job.

simonb2007 · Nov 28, 2009

does that gear change fix come with the dec 8th DLC?

Turkish · Nov 28, 2009

Nope it's a seperate update. When you boot up the game while connected to XBL it tells you there's an update. Once you install that it's on there along with the glitch fixes apparently although as I say I'd not gone looking for those.

Is there a paddle shift animation as that could be a good compromise between the two, twitch of the fingers can be done so much faster!

Turkish · Nov 28, 2009

I've not tried a car with a paddle shift in it to see if it goes for the paddles or the gearknob tbh.

Twitch of the fingers in the 430 scuderia

I hope they haven't fixed the glitch that lets you make unlimited money. I've only spent a few minutes doing it so I'm only up to 11,000,000.

How do you do this?

N00B Question...

I don't really play my Xbox all that much, but I've bought Forza 3 and I'm really enjoying it. Everyone keeps banging on about Xbox live, but tbh I don't know what the benefits are.

1. What are the benefits of getting Xbox live for Forza 3

2. Is it worth the annual subscription?

(Yes, I do live under a rock)

Alex H · Nov 28, 2009

Yes it's worth it to play online, there's plenty of people on CS to race against, or your mates if they have Forza and Live too. You can get a subscription for about £30 for the year, so that's only 58p a week

Cool, what other benefits are there? What's the marketplace all about?

Can pick it up on e-bay for £25 sometimes buy-it nows.

The official Forza forum is good value, love how trivial the moaning is. You can tell the basic game mechanics are spot on when people start moaning that there is no gearshift animation or that the Veyron spoiler doesn't pop up. Nice to haves, sure, but people moan like it's a dealbreaker!

The only genuinely annoying thing I've noticed is an occassional audio glitch that still sounds like you're accelerating when you hit the brakes (which is a bit unnerving.)

ACR Viper is good, handles pretty well tbh. F430 Competizione is also noice for r3.

ukaskew · Dec 7, 2009

Not sure if anyone's been keeping an eye on this, but the Hot Holiday DLC is out at some point tomorrow, confirmed so far...

Audi S4
Ferrari 458 Italia
Mercedes SLR Stirling Moss
Lamborghini LP 670-4 SV
Audi Sport R15 TDi
Jaguar XFR
Aston Martin Racing Lola LMP1
Porsche Panamera Turbo

Still two cars to be confirmed (one thought to be the GT-R). Would have liked a few more lower class cars personally, Megane 250 would have been a good shout.

They are also in the process of banning anyone who used the money glitch, nice

i have been challenging people on my friends list to beat my time round the ring on A (600) class. im not very good but i managed a half decent lap without getting the triangle up and its put me at about 630th in the world, which i was pretty chuffed with.
