Gaming Forza Horizon 5

[SpeedSpeak2me]

I have no clue what you’re talking about ?

I swear I’m gonna play tonight on the new console. Maybe not pinkie swear, but dust bunny swear.

 

[IDAFC21]

Yeah you dont need to worry about this yet. Just play the damn game first

God, had a hell of a time finding a good enough truck to use for the cross country series races where you needed to use a C600 pickup and 4x4. Finally got it done w/ a Colorado ZR2, and all I had to do to it was install a sport intake, race exhaust, sport cams, race engine block, race flywheel, race brakes, race clutch, street driveshaft and offroad diff

Reading through this makes me want to get back into gaming and get this game with a wheel set up

 

[IDAFC21]

I dont know how much of a benefit a wheel would be in a game like this, but for other games like the mainline forza, definitely

Yeah I totally failed that one with the RAM Power Wagon and had to switch to the oldest Defender which made for an easy win.

I’ve have a bunch of screen shots I need to crop and post. I’ve put so much time into this the last 2-3 days.

Okay, finally got this up and running after having to sort out a headset issue.

When it loaded it said I had received somethingorother and go to someplaceorother to check it out. I completely missed it and have no idea where to look to see what it had announced. Using these hugely vague descriptions, can anyone tell me what the hell I missed?

 

[IDAFC21]

probably said you had a gift car waiting for you in one of the barns. if you hit the button prompt when the message pops up it will open the map and mark which barn its waiting for you in, and you can mark it on your map to go retrieve it. Although right now its probably about a 50/50 chance you'll actually receive the car once you get there

2015 Volvo V60 Polestar, from Molly.

No idea who Molly is.

Found the message center. Was also gifted:

5 Super Wheelspins
1962 Peel P50
Santa Outfit (hopefully Santa boxers so I can drive around almost nekkid)
1,000 Forzathon points


Edit, of course I go into Super Wheelspin and it says I don't have any. Um, okay...

 

[IDAFC21]

Just a random. anyone can send a car to anyone. i usually send them anonymously

Decent car

 

[IDAFC21]

gotta redeem the wheelspins from the menu where it says you were gifted them

Also, a chicken suit. Need to figure out how to change my outfit and get a photo of it.

 

[IDAFC21]

[SpeedSpeak2me]

First time for everything. Who knows what else I'm missing/not seeing.

 

[IDAFC21]

You'll get it. There's really no "wrong" way to play this game.



unless you're entering Trial multiplayer races and just constantly ramming your team mates and/or always coming in last. Then you're just a prick. ?

Have done precisely zero multiplayer things ?

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Didn’t feel like driving around Latin America to get a better photo…

[IDAFC21]

[RedBeard]

I’m cool with it but please let us know your pronouns.

 

[RedBeard]
