Anyone else playin' this? I built my rig just so I could play Forza 5 with some buddies, and went for the pre-release all-in package for 6. Have only had time to put about an hour or two into it, but so far, pretty good. I haven't setup my PXN V99 wheel/pedals/shifter with it yet, just using my old xbox 360 controller for now. |

Yeah, but just playing on Xbox with a controller. I'm really enjoying it. I only have a few complaints: Upgrading, Tuning, Buying, and Switching cars is annoying. For example, if I'm at an event and I need to change parts on my car, it'll send me all the way back to the festival grounds in order to do it. The open world is extremely lonely. It's like a single player game where you occasionally see another player driving off to do their own thing. I wanna see a bunch of players cruising around Tokyo, and an easy way to chat with them. The AI is crazy. Holy crap do they need to do a major overhaul of the AI. |

I was in free roam up in the hills drifting around a blind corner and smashed into a traffic jam. There was no reason for it, they were just sitting there stopped for no reason. The car handling is quite a bit different. I prefer the more arcadey versions. |

I think the AI was trained on Asian drivers.

The AI is crazy. Holy crap do they need to do a major overhaul of the AI. I go between my xbox 360 controller on my gaming rig and my PXN V99 wheel/shifter/pedal setup. It's an entry level setup, but works fairly well, though the pedals need tuning. Brake and clutch feel kinda dead. I have it mounted to one of those metal stands, which works decent, and have locking casters on my chair. At the moment, I'm much better with the controller than the wheel, as I can't keep the wheel setup 24/7 due to space constraints. |

| As, as far as an Arfcom group... maybe someone can spin up another discord server? That's usually what friends and I use when we're playing together, seems to work better than the in game chat. |

Im getting there, I found that driving using the hood of vehicle or road view is much better for me in handling the vehicle. I might look into a wheel in the future but for now I'm having a lot of fun Ps don't recall off the top of my head but I did make some adjustments in the settings as well. Any suggestions for a wheel under 400? |

Any suggestions for a wheel under 400? @amendment Heres a deal on a base Logitech set. I have the version for the PS5 since Im a GT7 guys. I know theres WAY better out there, but its a great entry level to see if you like using the wheel/pedals. Woot! Logitech Wheel/Pedals |
