TVR

I thought TVR was always difficult to control in past games or i might be thinking of the speed 12 with that killer engine sound,nice surprise to see the tvr pretty easy to control in FH2

Huh, I’ll have to try it. The prize wheel gave me one ages ago, it’s just been gathering digital dust.

Weird styling though. It’d be beautiful if it wasn’t for those gashes. It’s like having Kate Upton with Tyrion Lannister’s battle-scar on her nose.

Speed 12 sounds cool but the only thing i could do is hit the wall because of the speed lol has Forza ever had the Speed 12 after my mini stroke i cant remeber small info like that anymore

The tvr is really nice to drive, I was surprised, I expected spending all day fighting to keep her in a straight line, but no!

In Forza 5 i had a tough time with the TVR what a change in FH2

Yeah I completed a while championship series with it I love it pretty zippy and can take corners at a decent speed too.

Yeah i used to have trouble with that car not in FH2 its great

It was a good A/S class car in FH1, havent tried it in FH2 but will do :), the styling of the Sagaris I’ve always liked, those sideways exhausts lol

The Sagaris is probably the car in TVR’s history that is less likely to kill you.

Less not being the same as not.

I love it, not least likely simply less likely. And it’s true, isn’t it?

The TVR cars have always been quite a handful and a little lacking when it comes to control or chassis out of the box. I haven’t spent much time in one since FM3 so it’s refreshing to see that people are having an easier time with it in FH2. That said, doesn’t it make you wonder how much they really changed and modified either the physics handling in Horizon 2 or the car from it’s original? The TVR cars T10 has modeled are fairly tough to drive in the real world so it’s fair that that translates to Forza.

I guess I’ll go give one a try though.

I played F5 and it handles horrid even with the same tuneing also drifting in it is easier,well FH2 drifting i itself is much easier at least to me it is

TVR was best in PGR… Forza can’t touch it…

PGR physics vs Forza physics,you could not be more wrong!

Never said physics were better/worse. The handling of the TVR in PGR made a better job of it than in Forza; there are a lot of factors that influence the experience of “object X” in “game Y”.

Speed 12 was definitely in previous Forza Motorsports games on 360 - I’ve loved the thing since Gran Turismo 3. I don’t agree that it’s uncontrollable, you can control it but if there is a car that will teach you about throttle control, this is a superb candidate :slight_smile:

You need the most delicate inputs and / or to fully utilise the high torque outputs by staying in higher gears than you would normally but when you can harness that abundance of torque and power, you can knock out some very serious lap times. I find that these kind of cars are best reserved for closed circuits however and they’re rarely as usable in the open world.

Dammit, I miss the Speed 12 though, Cerberas in general.

I think all this FH2 and FM5 is making me want to load up FH1 and FM4 again haha.

I remember it for its engine did Forza have the same rumble as GT cant remember

Oh and the TVR Tuscan and Sagaris have always been cars that punch well above their weight and have been very controllable too. It was really just the Speed 12 that could be defined as overpowered for the chassis.
