    It's a good game. The AI is a big crazy sometimes but is often brilliant. Sometimes it will hold a great defensive line around corners making it hard to overtake, but i will also occationally just swerve into you for no apparent reason. The rewind feature is helpful.

    I thought the demo was pretty fun so ima probably end up grabbing it. Not right away but eventually.

    I know it's a racing sim n all that but man, not being able to drive through other cars makes me so upset lol. I can't stand that shit for passing reasons and people taking you out, even if it's by accident that shit still sucks. Someone hits you with a one of them cop PIT manuevers and you're done for the rest of the race.

    Just something ya gotta get used to, learn to deal with and avoid I guess though. Hopefully yall aint no racing gurus or nothin so races can be somewhat close [​IMG]. Even if it aint it'll still be cool. I've clocked in some decent times (in my eyes) on the demo, average I guess I don really know. People getting those 58-59 seconds on that track with the final car (I forget what it's called) is pretty dam fast, that's blazin. My best is a 1:01.??? I think.

    You can turn the collisions off in exibition races and multiplayer i think. When playing the single player i suppose the collisions are just part of the entire racing experience.

    Annoyingly, you always seem to start at the back of the grid (so far for me, anyway), and getting around the slower cars can be challenging. That is where the rewind really helps though.

    I've got no idea how this works now. In Forza 2 it was based on the cars PI, so if you had the highest PI you'd be first on the grid.

    Doesn't seem to be the case in Forza 3 though. Even though i've had the highest PI on most races i've still never been higher than 4th on the starting grid [​IMG]

    I wish they had put an option in to do a 1 lap qualifier before the race, it's horrible getting past the A.I opponents.

    Nah the key to understanding forza is you takes on straightaways.
    Nevr on turns...the CPU is a monster and they don't forget shit when it comes to payback.

    True, but it will no longer always stick to the racing line and will fight it's own battles for position. It's not at all unusual to have the CPU at the front of the pack go around a turn a little slow in a defensive line backing up the pack. You can't accelerate until car infront does and they are in the same situation. This makes it hard to carry enough speed into straights because you're always going slower (unless you car is significantly faster).

    I've actually had a lot more success Breaking late and Jamming it into turns and making it stick, Schumacher style.

    Ahh, a fan of Formula 1? I love watching F1 races.

    And yea man I remember when first played the demo and I got good enough to kinda catch up, I came flying into a turn only to have to slam my brakes and steer all messed up (which eventually lead to me hitting the wall pretty hard) just to try and dodge this dude going around the corner like a grandma. I guess that's just strategy though.

    I used to play this game called Trackmania Nations a lot and the go through other cars was part of the game and that made it lots of fun. Going around corners and setting up for corners, most would be using the same line and it was pretty cool to not be penalized (I guess you could say) for doing a section faster than the guy/guys in front of you. It really made it a blast especially in neck n neck races and for making your way to the front. I'd still be playing it now if I had a cpu that could run the damn thing, I loved that game, used to be a beast at it. I wasn't much for the full speed tracks though, was more of the tech. kinda guy. It's completly free too. Yall should check it out if you dig racing games. It's been updated a lil while back and called Trackmania Nations Forever now. Extremely fun and addicting. Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HOJxiQ34C0 amazing thats it free imo.

    But this is just simply different style wich sounds/seems like it can be intresting a feel rewarding for being able to make that clean pass. It's good to hear you can turn collision detection off though lol.

    Yea Feck you're right, they should have some kind of qaulifying session for pole/grid position for each race. And just let you start at the back if you wanted to skip it. Seems kinda odd that there isn't but hey, guess that's just how it goes eh.

    It'd be sick if you can put like "VFDC" on the side of the car and other side of car put something like We Want VF5R or something and play online, don't know if that's possible though.

    You definitely can, but it requires a lot more skill at the editor than I could ever muster. Someone def. needs to make the VF5R logo at least!

    what would be awesome is if we could all paint our characters on our cars with a VFDC logo on the doors and then our nick names or vfdc.com license plates.

    While I'm not to big on drivers any more I am thinking about play this game.

    Do you manually have to paint the car, or can you import an image?

    I'm probably going to pick this game up soon.

    You have to manually paint it in game, no importing.
