[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. :(

edit my golf (had a few edits since the pic):

    • I hate the term, "future-proof." We saw it back in the 90's / 2000's, if not before. You cannot future-proof anything, since there is no definition of how far into the future you plan on prepping for. Best idea is to tell us what you currently have and what its use is at the moment, and we can then offer ideas about some areas that might need an upgrade and other areas that can be left alone.
    • I can agree that it is being used in a small capacity. I worked for a company where their engineers still used XP, and when asked why it was because their sensor software wasn't compatible with newer operating systems and the software was discontinued so they couldn't upgrade the software. Given that the sensors were still in use by companies, they had to continue using XP to support the sensor, otherwise the price to the company would have gone into the millions or billions. Our response was simple: Ok, you can keep the XP machine. But we're removing it from the network. "But then it can't access the Internet or folder shares!" Yup, kinda the point. If someone wants to continue using an unsecure OS they can do, I have no problem with that. But it should be isolated. Simple. I had a fight with a guy in the engineering department for weeks before he finally relented. But we digress.   What do I plan on doing to commemorate the anniversary? Nothing. I have fond memories of the OS, but at the end of the day it's just an OS. If I had some time I might see if I could install it on my Raspberry Pi for a laugh. But my reflex memory with today's OS ideas would probably get me frustrated and I'd uninstall it after 5 mins.
