Forza Car Club

[TheForce]

yep it was good racing, when is the next race ?!

and there must be more Forza players that can join the fun !

[charlesr]

Forza. 1pm GMT this Sunday. Join in.
Will be doing Bog Standard Mazda Sports and GTS class on Bluemountain Raceway and Kaido down/uphill.

[TheForce]

I'll get the dust off my xbox and make it ready for use for sunday's great showdown on the tracks !!

count me in !

ps, and we HAVE to race through the streets of Rio

[Fuddle]

i just been having a look at this tonight in preparation.
dont remember why i never touched it when i got it a year ago.
but my save has now gone from 1% up to a mighty 6%.
obviously i'm **** at the game, but i will join in for a mess around. havent been on live for ages, its about time i got some moneys worth out of it.

do i have to buy any cars then, or is it all open when online?

[charlesr]

We'll stick to standard cars which will all be available. If we stick to the standard mazda sport in D class (slow) and the Merc GTS (fast) then we'll all be on a level playing field.

Ok, Rio in - Kaido downhill out.

So:
Merc GTS on BlueMountain 1
Mazda Sport on Kaido Uphill (3rd gear if you're lucky )
Which (standard) car for Rio?

I suggest on the circuits we do 2 laps max, maybe even just 1 lap.

Anyone else joining? Someone I know will hopefully be joining.

[MonkeyWrench]

I want in but I need to go buy a copy first, I'll see if I can snag one tomorrow.

[charlesr]

Good man.

[TheForce]

we need something fast on the Rio track, GT or GT-S cars....
and for sure 2 or 3 laps so we can get the flow of the track in our fingers... (I'm quite a bit rusty with Forza)

for the rest it's all fine with me !

[charlesr]

Just a bump in case anyone else is around in 5 mins

[Fuddle]

could have done with a few more people, but it was still pretty good.
driving without the assists on is a lot more hardwork though. i'll have to practice that a bit more.
...and come up with some cool paint jobs

[TheForce]

I tried to join in several times but it kept saying the game was full or not available anymore, I tried a few times while playing it on the 360 and I tried many times on the xbox, everytime the same message... weird.
So I played a game with some other folks, it was hard again adjusting my play style from PGR3 to Forza... it was fun though,
to bad I couldn't join you guys,
Charles did you host the game ? if not the other one maybe had an friends only game ? ....

[charlesr]

Weird. I hosted and had 7 friends slots open. I think this is a 360 Vs Xbox problem. Next time, you host since you have the 360. I had similar problems when I played against a friend with a 360. He had to host and send invites. Add fuddle to your friends list.

[TheForce]

yes, that's what I was thinking also, so I took my "old" xbox, hooked it up and tried to join ya, and I got the same message again and again and again....

[Alastair]

Right, I'm 99% certain that I'm alone this w/e from Sat afternoon until Monday so that leaves a lot of time for Forza online

If there's any interest my tag is alyg303 (why can't I get it to show on the left any more?). Add me and I can be online whenever but it'd be good to get a group together and organize something a little more definite.

Charles, Force, can/when can you guys make it on this w/e?

[TheForce]

depends if we're going to play Gears of War on sunday, otherwise I'l probably be online saturday evening and sunday afternoon....
