***The OFFICIAL forza 3 thread***
 

Forza 3 discussion and future livery, racing, and anything that has to do with FM3 should be discussed here. :hello:

oop, never mind, there it is! yay, my savannah rX-7 returns... :D lol

i'm also oddly happy to see the pontiac G8 in there. great car, too bad it's a sendoff for the company.

Yeah I wouldnt mind having a g8, probably going to be rebadged as a chevy.

Not sure if you guys have seen this. Its a few weeks old. But for those who havent, Its amazing

Isnt there like a million threads about this? Anyways... played the demo a bunch ... still a ways away from the refinement I seek... Basically rebadged forza 2 w / more cars and tracks and better graphics... the realism is still way off... for both the cars and the driving feel...

yes but there isnt a "official" thread

I don't care for OMG INSANE REALISM. I look for the game to drive cars I'd never afford, do things I'd probably die doing in real life, and just have a good time. Want realism? That's what the Z is for!

^+1, I think its more realstic than anything else on a console.

Well Forza 2 was the best racing game put out that I've played. So as long as they don't somehow make it worse then it'll still be amazing. I agree with Andy too, it's the most realistic game I've played.

The more I play the demo I realized something I didnt realize before. When I 1st fired up the demo, I was like wtf did they do. The cars handled much grippier then fm2. I wasnt taking the corners any faster than fm2 but just felt more stable. I was later reading on FM.net that they actually "fixed" the tire model which has always been a problem in FM2. Some would make the argument that it made the game easier...ie. arcady. I disagree with this, I found in FM2 even in stock cars would destroy tires at full throttle no matter the hp. This is not realistic. I am glad they made this revision.

sucks there in no R35. maybe they didnt want to show polyphony technology in the cockpit view. or maybe there was some rights dispute..... regardless its a HUGE ommission

yea. I wish it was in there too. You are probably right. Maybe polyphone figured to ask nissan to keep the rights away from turn 10 in order to secure the job on the satnav

i mean it was in the new NFS but that is a multi platform franchise and is a little differnet than the head to head turn 10 vs polyphony. they were able to get the Super GT GT-Rs but they are branded by the race team not Nissan... i think its gotta be some type of rights issue. or they are holding out for a stronger DLC pack????

could be. Or maybe polyphony has limited access to gtr until like a year or sol. Im not treally sure I havent heard anything about it. Although they do have the r33 which is a nice suprise.
