[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):

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
    • It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
