All Things Forza

Well i'm definitely seeing DieGrootHammer constantly in "driveatatar" form in my forza 6 races, zooming past me for first place , that bastard. :D

An extremely in depth review for anyone interested:

I'm surprised stuff like this doesn't make it into the "review round-up", but hey....

That is a nice detailed review indeed, amusingly:

Like Forza 5, when you aren’t racing real-life opponents in multiplayer, you’ll be racing against your friends and the wider-community’s trained racers known as Drivatars, replicating the same driving methods as the player, powered by machine learning on the Microsoft Cloud. Drivatars have also received changes and I’ve felt they’ve become tougher opponents in Forza Motorsport 6. They race smarter and even on lower difficulties, will provide a challenge to the player. One of the coolest additions however is the ability to limit Drivatar aggression, making them race more professional on the track. This means they use less aggressive driving methods like blocking, crashing, spinning-you-out and sideswiping, making for a far cleaner race for both you and your Drivatar opponents. However, one obscure thing I keep noticing is one Drivatar is constantly way ahead while the others are like their bunched together. It’s expected every race and personally, it just doesn’t seem realistic to me.

---> part in bold = DieGrootHammer every time in my races....double bastard ;) But in seriousness, it is a bit odd and noticable, it's like they get some mysterious unrealistic speed boost , i hope it is something they can fix over time.
 
I've decided to wait before I get Forza 6. As much as I want it now I can't justify it. I'm still in the early stages of playing Forza Horizon 2.

Ditto. I'm sort of okay with the R800-odd for the game, but struggling to justify the R6000 for the console to go with it. :|

Haha it's a lot of money for one game if you have to get the console too!

But totally worth it. Believe me the attention to detail in this game is astounding. Racing in the wet is like nothing else you have experienced in the past. It's not just reduced grip turning the track into an ice field like Pcars or driveclub.

The puddles forces you to change your line and strategy. The weather is colder so your brakes tend to struggle as well.

The mods is a nice change of pace and adds some nice little "challenges" to each race.

Lastly the gorgeously smooth 60fps is amazing! I enjoyed Horizon but I can never go back after enjoying this 60fps racing heaven.
[MENTION=20]Solitude[/MENTION] just get it man, sell a kidney work your local corner or red light district but just do it [emoji16]
 
Haha [MENTION=6994]BaTouSai[/MENTION], I will get it eventually but with my backlog I can't justify getting it now. Hopefully I'll get it for Christmas. :) And then I'll take all of you on with the lap times.
 
Had my disc delivered at work. Just got home and popped it in and now have to wait for an update as well.
See you on the track tonight probably.
 
Unfortunately i have not been able to play multiplayer or leagues since i got the game, no idea if it is my router or forza servers. I just get a "failed to get match server list" error. There is a lengthy thread on the forza forums and seems the trend is, above 200ms ping and you might be in trouble.

If you see these error messages: "Failed to get server list" or "Failed to get match server list," this means that we did not find any datacenters under our current latency limit for ensuring a quality multiplayer experience. We are aware of this issue that some players are running into and are currently investigating.

So probably will have to VPN around this if they don't fix it.
 
Congrats on getting an XBox One and Forza 6 [MENTION=4071]BeoTeK[/MENTION]! Except if you are playing somewhere else. :) Just saw you on the XBox friends list racing in Forza 6.
 
Tomorrow I'll be back at home and in front of my precious Xbox One, and with it a brand new copy of Forza 6. Tell me, what is the size of the initial patch to download before I can play?

Ah... I was wondering why I haven't seen you online all weekend.
I might be mistaken but I think mine was about 250mb, give or take.
