Hey acerlyte,

its sure been a while. Good to hear from you.
Hope you're going to make a comeback when the full version hits the street?

I'm thinking about digging out the wheel and giving it a go yeah, with all these fast blokes around you need someone at the back of the grid!

I was chasing Teeroys Pagani time last night, what an awesome car to drive! Sounds fantastic and once you start pushing the limits a bit the car really comes alive. 16 man grid of Paganis would be heaps of fun!

To be fair you are pushing the car to the edge as it is a videogame, that and for the most part you are driving at a track that is, as has been said, -4 F, at an average speed of 200km/h+ on standard road tires. Grip isn't exactly abounds and even though its a Pagani, its not a race car, so its not going to grip massively at high speed.

See thats what has me thinking they're including different compound tires for each type, like soft/medium/hard tyres for sports and racing tyres. But that is speculation.

Yeah, they are just teasing us.... And yeah it wouldn't have that much grip.. true!

On another note, hows a Forza 4 demo TT comp (small scale) sound like?

I think someone mentioned one of those somewhere.. You could do it through rivals!

I don't think all members are all on each others friends list though.

Yeah thats the only problem.. But as long as we have a few people, atleast they could see the time..

Um newsflash guys, it already IS a time trial that you compare yourself against others, no need to go & re-invent the wheel.....

Just running a small comp inside OZFM ensures we get everyone, not just a few. I know i don't have everyone on OZFM on my FL.

Love it had a good go last night,once you work it out and adjust then its heaps of fun...

and theres my problem, i push the car too hard and end up under steering a lot of the corners i still managed to beat your time though, took me ages!!

Wow! & I did a 1:40.4xx last night, & it took me only a few laps! hahahahaha! I beat EVERYONE (from OZFM's) times! WOW, I'm sooooo damn good, & so modest too! As if I'd rub it in people's faces & then not realise how rude that is, just because I did well..but hey, when in Rome.....

Of course if I hadn't have actually managed to beat a specific time someone else had already set then I just wouldn't have posted, rather than say "well done" or give credit to anyone else.... after all what's in that for ME? that's how we roll here at OZFM isn't it?

lol lol lol

On a serious note, can't wait for the full release now, it really looks like a good step forward
over FM3. Also guys don't worry if you aren't immediately "on it"...... just take a few laps to get used to the car & build up to it rather than starting by pushing too hard, remember you are learning the track for the 1st time too so its hard to be straight on the pace in that Zonda but it will come with a bit of practice We've still got what, another week to muck around with this & improve our times/driving?

Acer! welcome back hope to see ya around soon bud!
my time was crap, i couldnt get a clean lap , i was running 1.43.3's but not clean

Reapr, if your going to post sh*t like that just to strat crap then dont post mate, seriously the guys are hot lapping against ghosts!
It the reason for them being in the game?
to beat them.

People dont just post when they beat times clearly other wise we wouldnt have a forum.
Please check yourself before you wreck yourself.

Seems that i have stumbled upon some....things....scratch the TT board idea then.

Not sure if im right or not in saying this.. but i think i heard something about Sounds changing as u upgrade the cars ??

From my experiance standered rexys do have that distinct boxer engine sound.. but when u put a exchaust on it.. it really stands out.. maybe when u upgrade the exchaust system the sound might be more prodomanant. ?? but i could be wrong just thought i heard something on one of the FM4 vids in regards to car sounds..

Im still all wet over the sound of the pagani hehehehe

( how long will it take to add spell check to the forum for dislexic unable to spell goons like myself ?? ) lol

That's predominant Don - along with some of the other words you were having fun with:

• experience
  
• standard
  
• exhaust
  
• dyslexic

Don't worry about a spell checker - we've got your back

Well FF and Chrome have a spell check built into the browser...you use IE Don?

Sometimes the written word can be misunderstood.

Reaper I don't believe mcrow was comparing to ALL OZFM, if fact it was in response to Puttz' comments and IMO your post is out of line.

If people want we can get times posted and create a in-house leaderboard going.

Would be nice if we could have all OZFM members on our friends lists but when we are limited to 100 it is not possible. So we have a forum to brag and compare.

**Edited**
after I reread things on a real screen.

if we can collate all our OZFMers it'd be cool, Dazza, what ya reckon

TEEROY 34 wrote:if we can collate all our OZFMers it'd be cool, Dazza, what ya reckon

I am happy to collate them, I will start a new thread and those who want to be compared against other OZFM members can post thier times up.

Do other want this, or just have some fun and we will work out what is possible once the real deal drops.

Once the real game hits, and we have our OZFM club running, I think it would be great for us all to work together to get OZFM to the top of whatever leader board there is going. We have some really good drivers here and we need to showcaee them to the world.

Good one,

don't worry about the struggle to be at the back of the grid, that applies to most of us sometime. Anyway, I kinda recollect you weren't too slow back when.

Hope to line up with you sometime soon.

Cheers FRANK for pointn that out mate lol i didnt even notice.. if u read the words as there spelt usually u will get what im tryingto say.. Always in a rush messaging on here as if the boss see's it.. it will be a slap in the head for me..

ENVY.. yeh dude im on IE.. our laptops are locked down from installing other browsers..

Dazza .. if u think the work to setup a demo leaderboard is worth the effort seeing the game is here soon. then sweet i think it would be to much work for such little time before the game release..

Guess everyone has a few peeps frm ozfm they can compare against. ??

myself im gona be on the wheel full time from now on in.. controller got the flick.. and actually suprised myself with a 1/2 decent clean lap time with the pagani. i shocked myself . Only cause it sound grouse.. All assists off except abs . took a little bit of time to get the hang of it.. but happy with the time i got.. even if its at the back of the clean lap field..


Think im due for the ( Worst speller on FMOZ ) Award lol

Should also note that FM4 is down to $99 on the LCE pre-order.

pfffft if someone else can post rudely constantly & always have to point out when they are beating others, WHY CAN'T I?

Oh sorry, its different "acceptable behaviour" rules for different people, or so it seems. After all I'm only pointing out someone else's rude/smartarse attitude, by manner of acting that way myself.

PM/Ban me if you have a problem with it but I DO have a point. If you'd listen to others sometimes maybe you might hear it instead of just thinking I have my grump on for no good reason

You have a point there Reapr

I for one am confused as to how this became a big deal, i merely suggested a TT mini-comp in the same vein as these, just a bit of fun with the scrap of FM4 we have at the moment.
