Long jumper?

I have seen it listed and not listed. I have tried to do it as well; but, I haven’t been able to get the achievement (if it exists)…Anybody been able to earn it in FM5? If so, how and where (if you don’t mind sharing). Thanks.

There is no achievement for jumping.

False-ish. There is a badge and title, but no gamerscore attached.

Long Jumper

  • Travel 15 feet in the air in a single jump.

OP - Head to Alps in a very fast car, and hit the little jump just at the crest of the hill before the esses leading into the last turn. With enough speed you will easily cover more than 15ft. You can also try crashing into something very quickly, like the barrier at the end of the straight on Spa. It’s normally enough to send you flying some distance.

Badge and Title, yes.
Achievement, no.
That’s what I said :wink:

Thanks everyone. Will give it a go in the Venom on the Alps and report back.

I wish there was a way to view badges that you have not earned. I have seen some cool ones in multiplayer but didn’t know what they were for and I usually don’t keep my headset on so never got to ask.

I tried in the Alps and just couldn’t get it. So, I went to the airport test track (thank for the great video). Anyway, I was hitting that “ramp” at 200+ mph and not getting it. I tried many times in Rivals and Free Play and would complete the lap. The air I am getting is fantastic but I have no idea why I am not triggering the badge. I will try again with something less aerodynamic. It is still silly fun though.

Get a range rover, fully upgrade it, go to the suspension settings, turn the rebound and compression all the way down, then turn the spring stiffness all the way up, then raise the ride height to (monster truck) this makes the car super bouncy. Go to the jump on test track, get a run up, and then you’ll jump to moon.

OK. I maxed out my F150 and sent it soaring. But no badge. So, I spent the 200K or so to get a Range Rover and upgrade it to the max. It went even further but still no badge. Has anybody actually triggered the badge and have it registered in their forza profile? If so, could you describe what it looks like? I have looked many times and I do not have it and I am not sure where I could even see where it is locked. For me, it is no where to be found (at least I haven’t been able to find it). That Range Rover is a hoot! I also managed to flip the F150 (head over heels) and that was fun! But the elusive Long Jumper …

Is one of those situations where you have to finish the race before you get the badge, like benchmarking the P1?

scanned through the title and badge list 3 times and I’m unable to find it. ATM I doubt it even exists.

----EDIT----
NVM Just found this post which may be the one someone was going on about earlier

I’m just wondering why it isn’t listed. I still doubt it exists because it doesn’t seem like something that wouldn’t be listed.

—More Editing…—
Doesn’t exist as far as I’m concerned, haven’t got the badge and the “challenge” isn’t listed in the game. So here’s the jump that I made and I’m pretty sure this is quite a bit more than 15 feet (couldn’t be bothered to spend 5 Mins plugging the Kinect in and trampling though the upload studio)
