Tuned rental car for Trial appreciation post #2
Same as last week. Enjoyable.
Great for Playa, a bit less for Lookout. Launch is not great. Was struggling with acceleration from lower speed corners (no throttle control on keyboard). Definately would prefer AWD. But in higher speed corners it was nicely planted.
PS. I think I will stop replaying “Making history” (that Goliath race). I’m getting bored of DNFing everyone
PS2. Anyone having issues with connection? No disconnection, but I’m quite often getting message at top of the screen about “bad connection, gameplay may be affected” + people are lagging. Maybe I’ve issues with antivirus or something?
Has to be the quickest to complete set of events we’ve ever had.Greatly helped by the s2 Hotwheels event being 2 sprints (co-op),and the Ford gt challenge being - well,lets be kind and say, pointless .
I think you found that formula that matches the average forza driver and even the more advanced ones. Some people like too much of this and that…but you are balanced as can be. Congrats on all the work you put in to get that!! It’s well appreciate by the community for sure.
That was exactly my experience for the same reasons. I got punted off the course and just caught the edge of a checkpoint when I rejoined the race near the back of the field. However, as a team we put in a solid performance and were victorious.
I did the Trial a couple of times now and it was one of the worst experiences with this event ever. The amount of simply incompetent players that couldn’t beat even half of the AI while driving fully upgraded cars was mindblowing. Half of the players weren’t even able to drive in a straight line (literally). The ramming (deliberate and not) was off the scale. A couple of times “teammates” even denied me to overtake and blocked me on purpose and then rammed or tried to ram me when I was side by side. Besides that I had a couple of “free loaders” that simple drove to the side right at the start. They obviously relied on other players to win the event for them.
I haven’t seen anything like that before and I’m heavily “affected” by driving Tours where players more often then not behave like utter scum. If this is a depiction of the playerbase of this game and I unfortunately have the impression that’s the case then I don’t want to play and even more not contribute to it anymore.
Just attempted the trial, first race was fine but on the second two races the runaway drivatars were the worst I’ve seen in a long time. Not cool, I’ll be finishing up the playlist with offline championships rather than touch that again.
Also was not impressed with the GP event lab in the town. Track was way too narrow and tight.
A quick psa regarding the 1969 charger that was in the dailies: remember to get the Daytona from the car perks. It’s one of the 5 cars available from perks.
Played the “Circuit de Mulegé” Seasonal Championship a few more times and noticed there’s another route which is even tighter. I don’t think it’s a shortcut though because it seems to take longer?
Final draft. Trimmed down to 531 layers. Mostly was able to delete some redundant/overlapping layers in the middle. Consolidated the layers into their color groups (to make for easy color swaps), and made some minor adjustments/cleanups with the text and some of the line work.
