Voting Time

Hello guys, I wish to try something to help regain the passion we all had for Forza Motorsports 4.

I wish you guys to decide how you feel about my plan and if you dont like it I would like honest opinions.

Sunday racing Leagues :
I would like to take our 5 pm Sunday slot and fill it with a Learn to Race like Pro's session. ( Once we have finished with the Grand am )

I wish to run a bunch of series Starting in C class and working our way up B,A,S,R3,R2,R1.

I would like to run this session with our usual assist except - No racing line and Forced Cockpit view.

I would also like to see the guys using Auto gears trying to progress up to Manual but not a must.

This event would also be run with Zero HUD (The only thing on your screen would be the inside of your car and the Road).



This is not a must guys, which is why i am asking you for your opinions on the matter. I only want replies from our Sundays racers as our saturday events would remain the same. Saturday guys can also Vote if they feel they would want to take part in something like this.

Also guys I just want to say I know its intimidating changing the Assist you are used to which is why i already have the car of the series built and if the vote is successfu,l I will post the series calendar and car specs so you can get at least 2 months practice

Thanks guys.
Vote Honestly

It sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure about the racing line being forced off, but I haven't really tried to race without it. Since everyone has it forced off it might work with a bit of practice. Overall it sounds like a great idea with its emphasis on realism. On the voting part when you mean keep it the same, I assume you mean keep the normal sunday series format?

I think that this could be good, the car you have is great and the experience is great with no HUD or line!

yes i mean keep the usual format.

Ok im not sure if I'd want to replace te usuall format but I still would like to do this type of racing.

we would still offer leagues on a saturday with the racing line and with our usual assist. I just think we are all getting to the level in which we can step it up a little and make this game more interesting. plus give some of us veterans something to think about because racing on Forza im becoming a little bit of a zombie as i just break when it says red and go when it doesnt.

I quite like the sound of learning to race without the racing line and hud. As long we are all patient with each other as mistakes will happen.

On a personal note i need some new life injected into Forza seeing theirs not that much difference between FM3 and FM4, i feel like i need a new challenge.

Btw guys this wouldn't definitely be permanent, its just something we can try its about trying to find something make this game better and new and more interesting. and yes it will be a huge learning curve for all of us. but i think its what we need to keep us feeling Forza 4.

At first I voted keep it the same. But now that I have thought about it and done some practice with Dalton and Smurf I wish to change my vote haha.

Honestly, this sounds like a great idea, although I may be a bit biased considering that I run with everything off except for the lap times and distance behind anyway. Nevertheless, those of you who generally keep the racing line on, I can promise you that it is just as fun without it, if not more because it gives you such a more realistic experience.

Actually, on a side note, why are we not allowed to use manual w/ clutch again? I wasn't really considering using it in a race anyway because my heel-toe needs some cleaning up, but was just curious.

I believe it is because clutch gives a big speed and time advantage, so splits the pack up

But isn't the clutch available for everyone? Or does the Microsoft wheel not have one?

Yes its available for everyone, but we dont do things in regards to what is and isnt available.
We also let people use ABS, in most events the Racing Line and other things. Not to prevent people from using what they like but to make the events close and fun.

Hey all i'm fine with changing the assists, but don't really like the cockpit only idea, I've tried racing in this mode many times (mainly because it looks good in this mode), though some cars are an exception, such as the lotus 2 eleven, elise/exiege, vx220, mx-5 (mainly the small sportscars), but cars such as the dtm and lmp1 look like your driving through a letterbox.

All the other changes are fine and will definetly help the realism factor, especially when one of us performs a victory 180, only to realise they're a lap premature.

lol and yes they seem like that but i suppose thats what its like in real life.

Did you know that Mike Rockenfella Tried to sue Audi after his crash at the 24 Hour of Lemans?

He said if they had just taken off that stupid left front wheel and Arch like he requested he could have seen the Ferrari changing lanes haha

I already race in cockpit with no hud, so im cool with this . but its upto eveyone else.

I'm happy to try it but seeing that I can only take part in the Sunday races I'm a bit apprehensive to switch over. If I could enter the Sat races too I'd love to try it.

Well the only other way would be to run 1 Class on the Sunday and 1 Class on the Saturday, but im afraid that wouldnt help anybody. (when it comes to progression)

We could run It later on a Sunday but that may mean it becomes to later for you to run in the event.

I'm fine with the idea. I just won't take part when it turn's to LMP1 car's as can see absolutely nothing but the wheel arch closest to the driver and a bit of sky

I'm up for whatever I guess, I am interested so whichever way the vote goe I'll be there.
