So Forza has more or less consumed me since it came out and I've been spending a lot of time in the Auction House and checking the message board for cars and it's amazing what some people can do.




The 300 cars go for an ungodly amount on the auction house and a lot of the people on there are numbering their cars. Hell I saw a car the other night I was going to buy but I already have 150,000 in an auction for this car;

But I did win it and now I've been searching for that other car since. And just for some contrast, here are some of the cars I've came up with...

i just came!

i want this game if you can do shit like that. are people just drawing those themselves or is there a way to import pictures from your PC or something to make them?

Answer your question?

[Aero]

awwww, im afraid it does. but its still pretty cool, my mate is great at freehand on the computer so i'll just have to get him over.

[The Don]

It's fucking hard... if you get it, let me see what he can come up with.

[Aero]

i'm thinking (tho i dunno how easy it would be) a black car right? with, get this... a stripe on it.

[ALL STAR]

Fuck those cars look awersome think i might have to pick up this game

[Spectre]

So people make designs put them on a car in forza and sell them, and people buy them with money from the game. please im lost someone give me a quick explanation of this.

[The Don]

That's the newest car I picked up, everyone had a black Gears car... and I wanted it to stand out a little more.

UR, you get credits for completing races (damnge comes out of your payment however) and then you just keep saving and saving. Then you can go in the auction house and buy a painted or non painted car, stock or tuned car and so on... I'm at like 1.6 million right now and all together I've made around 2.9 million thus far.

OHHHH, that sounds really cool i might pick up this game, seems like need for speed but better. Is that editing thing the link you posted, come with the game or do you have to pay more or download something like XNA on XBL.

[The Don]

Never compare Forza 2 to Need for Speed. Forza is a balls to the wall sim. And the editer is in the game, I havent seen ANY downloads for the game yet.

[Spectre]

Actually i was thinking that right after i posted, i also download the demo it seemed ok but the turning i might just suck at it or it is hard i dont gte that red/blue/purple line that right before the turn. eh i give it another go tommorow.

[The Don]

Red = SLOW THE FUCK DOWN!
Yellow = Ease off gas and on break
Green = Romp on it

Basically the line is the way you want to go, but you can become a slave to the line so I turned it off after my first few races when I got the game, it's much more satisfying to win a race knowing you used your own line. Also if you're having problems turning either use an all wheel drive car or turn on ABS, TCS and STC.

The game takes some (or a lot) getting used to if all you play is Need For Speed, thankfully I had my buddy next to me kinda holding my hand for the first few days. If you go balls out, pedal to the metal you'll end up in the wall and you can either accept you need to try a little harder or do like HB did and say that there must be magnets in the wall.

Hopefully my nonsensical rambling helps...

Just been looking on the forza site and its awersome its all set out for the game with an auction house and stuff
http://forzamotorsport.net/auctions/
thought it was just on xbox live having it on the internet is great, picking this game up tomorrow

[The Don]

Yeah, checking auctions online has made it less of a time killer.

[ALL STAR]

Got the game today and its fucking awersome here is my first paint job wip



planning on doing hbk and hhh on the sides

[The Don]

I wouldn't mind seeing the finished version of that, perhaps I'll give you a car (Mazda RX-8 i assume) and then you can copy and paste it over to my car and send it back

[Aero]

that is pretty sweet, tho i think you need something up the side of it... please avoid the vince likes cock thing tho.

mayb even just some random gren flashes or spray paint.

[The Don]

One thing I've seen on other Gears cars is around the wheel well they'll have red splashes so it looks like blood, maybe something to consider.

Either way as soon as you're done make sure you save the design so you can apply it to other cars (IE the car I gift you)
