[Official] Forza Motorsports 2 Discussion


Recommended Posts

thx for the info guys, so far only boght two cars to get into events, the rest are prize giveaways.

Yeah, so far I tend to want to just race with my starter car, the Audi TT. But, I am seriously thinking of taking on a Mini and doing something with that. I don't know why I am so stuck on the 'little' cars, hahaha.

Different regions get different cars, though. I know the Lancer Evo 8 or whatever it is that's very popular in class B races online is only available as a won car when you select Asia as your Region.

Different regions get different discounts if I am right. It seems to me that I have a 30% discount on all cars coming out of the US.

heh heh some nice designs.

soloredd, the small cars make sense. they get a good boost from even basic mods since there's a lot of potential to unlock there, and handling will always be better than a RWD behemoth.

Finally beat the last race in Time Trials. I've done that race like 100 times and never been able to beat it, finally beat it by .007 of a second. :)

Anyone got any tips on the very last Proving Ground race? Heavyweight car must weigh more than 3850lbs?

Ferrari 612 or Bentley continental or Aston Martin DB9, though not 100% sure on the DB9. I use the Ferrari 612 anyway

So the Chevy Corvette challenge is going to be the death of me. I have a 956 PI Corvette and I can't race it at all. Every time I accelerate, I simply do peel outs before spinning into a wall and coming out of turns, it's impossible to accelerate without swerving helplessly side to side.

Bah!! I know what you mean!! It took me forever to finally finish it. I actually gave up on it for about a week. I used to love Corvettes in real life, but that seriously made me hate them now :p.

As hobsgrg suggested, get the 612 and beef it up a bit. Be sure to get some better brakes and tyres though!

Well might as well post my online car. :p

Had to keep it simple because of the shape. Very hard to find decals which worked well with the vents. :(

    • So, recently, I saw on the news that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
