Subtitle: It's my turn to start a thread here, dammit!

So this came out today on the 360. I picked it up.

There's a new Car Club feature, functioning basically like guilds in other games. There's a club leaderboard, internal rankings, and a shared garage. I set one up primarily for Cordilon, but it's open to Jul people* as well - search for Phase One, tag [Ph1], or give me your gamertag and I'll invite you.

I'm never sure what else to say to start a thread about a game, so I'll just tell you this: I suck ass. Don't expect me to be really competitive, but hey, at least it'll be funny!


* Julers? Julites? Julians? Hmm.

Probably going to pick it up in a month or less (hopefully before Black Friday), just because of the shared garage feature.

I did test the new wireless steering controller that promotes Forza 4 at a demo kiosk at Best Buy. I'm not a fan of the controller because I oversteer more than the Microsoft 360 pad, and manual shifting is mapped to the D-Pad for the wheel.

I will LIKELY pick this up on Sunday. Don't think I can grab it before then due to work, sadly...

Don't forget - if you played Forza 3, IMPORT YOUR SAVE. Not only is it an achievement, but it'll also unlock bonus cars based on your Forza 3 driving level.

I'm... sucking rather less than I expected.

The Phase One garage is decently stocked now - members can borrow a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera or a Ferrari Scuderia. Neither can be bought, I got them as carryover bonuses from my Forza 3 VIP status. Neither one's upgraded yet, but that's mostly because I don't have a good handle for supercars just yet.

I'm still cruising around in an upgraded-to-B DeLorean.

Hey, Stigandr, how did you get the DeLorean in Forza 4?

I bought one in Forza 3, and when I imported the data, it gave me one.

I can also buy them. If you can't and you want one, let me know; they're only 14,000 CR.

Thanks.

I also heard that you can get one as a gift when playing free play mode.

Going to try tonight.

Racing a DeLorean in the S class is... weird. I've pretty much hit the top of its performance, though. Can't do worth a damn on high-speed courses, but its braking and turning is surprisingly high for the class; this works well in, for example, Fujimi Kaido and, theoretically, the non-speedway Sedona. (haven't taken it there since A, though)

I'm honestly surprised. I figured it'd peter out in A, but I decided to force it to the next tier anyway.

But now I have to pick a new low-tier car to upgrade... I'm thinking '87 Firebird next. That or '90 Camaro.

I bought the DeLorean and got it up at A class right now.

Already left the car club that I started and joined a friend from Twitter, on his, (OXM).

Bought the game today... but I want to hit Driver Level 50 in Forza 3 first. :\ Given how I'm at L29 now... should only take a few hours, no?

I'm considering this game...

Not too sure yet, but I'm getting to a decision time.

Maybe next month or so, but I need money now =/

They're nice.

I'm horrible at racing games, but I so would have bought it if they put my car in there. I was optimistic when I heard the make was in the game, but nowhere near the year or model.

Little guy gets into everything, doesn't he?

Yep. Made an Ikachan. He's on my Storefront (GT: Thexare) for 5,000 CR. Or you can just do a keyword search for Ikachan, doubt you'll get any other results.

I fixed the missing pixel on the left, just didn't feel like uploading a new picture.
