Hmmm so I didn't get any of the VIP stuff yesterday, on todays first wheelspin I notice I get a VIP bonus I didn't get on any of yesterdays.

 

Unable to invite anyone to the club right now, the club overview is giving unknown error.

 

But anyone who's my friend should find the club by looking for friends club when the game gets to the join a club stage, or just search for club Neowin or tag Neo


Also if anyone figures out the airport discount board. Double tap the guide and click x or say record this ###### ;)

Also just for information, if you challenge a drivatar on the road, the course doesn't have any checkpoints, I'm sure you guys can figure out why that can be... beneficial...

 

I thought that was the point? When challenging cars in the previous game, you'd be given an end point and that was it. With this game being more open world (you can drive pretty much everywhere) you're encouraged to take the car off road.

Makes it easy to win when you can drive a quarter of the distance ;)

 

Also, I get it's a road trip, but I'm not taking that route...

Yeah it does seem a bit strange, I guess you can't implement checkpoints without taking away from the freedom, but then as you said you potentially lose half the race.

 

Also pics seems to be broken...

How do I access the DLC cars? Pre-order bonus and Launch Day car pack, if that makes a difference.

They were under Garage or My Cars for me, forget which one, I then just had to activate them through the game.

The advert for this was on tv last night, i gota say GT6 has a lot to live up to.

 

GT6 or GT7? GT can't hold a candle to Forza anymore. It's one instant where Microsoft has put the money in to get it done right. 

 

This game is the BEST fun I've had on next gen so far.

Activate them how? I'm at work but don't remember seeing them in either place, just 2 cars.

From the pause menu there was a marketplace area. I went there and was had to download, which is what I meant by activate, each pack, even though I had redeemed the code before I even launched the game. It then did a quick little download, and that is when the cars then showed up under cars I owned.

It made no sense at all to be honest and seemed ass backwards, but that is what worked to get the game to recognize I owned those packs. It was showing the cars as costing $0 as mentioned above, but that did not matter until I went to the marketplace and downloaded them.

I think it is safe to say they are having some odd things happen due to launch on the servers, as they should have just been recognized as soon as I launched the game, especially since as I pointed out I downloaded them first thing.

Thank you very much for clarification. I'll try this when I get home. I appreciate it.

    • Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services by Taras Buria A new bug-fixing update is now rolling out to Firefox users in the Release Channel. Less than a week ago, Mozilla fixed crashes on Intel Raptor Lake processors with version 152.0.1. Now, Mozilla has prepared yet another set of fixes that address problems with localization, playback issues of certain MP4 files, and performance issues on website that perform various encryption operations at once. Here is the full changelog: Firefox 152.0.2 is now available for download from Mozilla's FTP. Existing installations will get the update over the next several hours. The latest version will also be available soon on the official website, the Microsoft Store, and Neowin's Software page. You can find Firefox 152.0.2 release notes in the official documentation. In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 152 earlier this month. The latest feature update brought reworked settings with a more streamlined user interface, JPEG XL support, new features for Private mode, a new way to mute a tab (just type "mute" in the address bar), and many more. You can find the complete changelog here. In other Firefox news, Mozilla recently published its roadmap, where the company detailed the upcoming Nova redesign and other features it plans to implement. Mozilla wants to make the new user interface easier to navigate and more modern, with a heavy focus on its privacy tools, such as its built-in VPN. If you are curious, you can already enable the new UI as described here.

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By Malisk · Posted

      I wonder how many are laid off for cost savings, and this being blamed on AI to make it sound less scary and bad, for a more positive "modern, with the times" spin for investors? Because Oracle is down 14% the past year. We're looking at a company struggling here. If AI would actually be working out so well for them that they can do massive layoffs, surely this would've been reflected the past year in their stock value?
