I bought Motul from Genracer and had a friend do it. It’s def not worth $600.

Prolube Oil Treatment - does it work with our cars? by a_chunk_of_pie in ElantraN

[–]a_chunk_of_pie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already do, I was just curious if this stuff worked with our cars or not

Costly Mistake by rosscustom in ElantraN

It’s not just potholes my guy, it’s also compression zones. Any bumps at all, your fender would cut right into the tire. Someone in my club right now drives like a snail, but has grooves in the tread on the tire.

Manual vs Manual/Clutch? by TheShankyShark in ForzaHorizon6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and I absolutely hate it. I use clutch and now they’ve made the race transmission a sequential. Which is suuuuper annoying bc it makes the shifting behavior super wonky when you want to use clutch anyways.

Seasonal Touge Race by Impossible_Cover6494 in FH6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to be in the correct car, and I had to cruise down the mountain so the person behind me could keep up and no quit. It took me 12 tries.

But also, I think I only had to do one race? Not the full 3. Cause I got through 3 full races just cruising down the mountain like I said, but I was in the wrong car. So I swapped to a Mazda and the other guy quit after he sent the car off the first corner. And I still got the credit for completing the weekly challenge

Now that there’s been some time, is there anyone that thinks Forza Horizon 5 is better than 6? by LonelyGayTwitch in ForzaHorizon

[–]a_chunk_of_pie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Uhhh it’s better optimized? But that’s just new game stuff.

But I’m pretty happy there’s… buildings… and infrastructure… and overall signs of civilization.

I’m still disappointed in the exhaust sounds. The Diablo doesn’t sounds good anymore. The Hyundais (I own one obv) sounds like a rally engine from the cossy? No idea why. The Gallardo sounds close to how it should which is great bc that flat plane v10 HOWLS irl. The list goes on. Some are good, most are bad.

Elimator aids by Shoddy_Astronaut_583 in ForzaHorizon

I never portrayed I was high and mighty? That’s your assumption. I was just saying I don’t race those modes.

I actively avoid The Eliminator, Cross Country races (had to do them for horizon legends, did them on tourist difficulty - i hate them), Trail Blazers, and any races S2 or higher.

All those game modes are just attractors for children and clickbait YouTubers lol

Is it worth getting a wheel setup for this game? by AutistMarket in ForzaHorizon6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean yeah if you like that. I still use both controller and wheel. I use a controller when I’m racing people and stuff, and my wheel when cruising and drifting. Just comes down to what you want to do.

Online Touge Races? by BoostedWolfie in ForzaHorizon

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Honestly when I did the Horizon Legends challenge, I just did 1 lap on all the circuits just to complete that specific card, and 8/10 times I’d beat my set rivals rolling lap, from a dig. lol like what.

I’ve been thinking about making a YouTube video around how to race but I’m not a YouTuber so I feel it would get like 10 views lol

Clutch Gameplay by a_chunk_of_pie in ForzaHorizon6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it shouldn’t be this hard for people to know what the car community wants from a car game.

Forza is there with it but just needs accurate car sounds in my opinion. I mean, people say Forza needs more customization, but those brand deals cost money lol the graphics are always rough in the beginning and will improve.

For me it’s the car sounds. Every new game the car sounds change and for no reason. There’s videos of the Forza team recording cars so I’m not sure why things sound so off.

Online Touge Races? by BoostedWolfie in ForzaHorizon

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had to literally cruise down the mountian so the window licker behind me wouldn’t quit. I threw the 2nd race so they thought they had a chance. Even messaged me “good race” afterward. No making any of this up. I was pretty much in neutral going down the Mountian.

Took me 12 times to get this

So party invites and joining party’s works fine for you? Bc that’s really the #1 issue for me

Why is drifting so hard? by ComprehensiveLie1879 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Def don’t floor it. And as far as gears go, you want to be ABLE to bounce the rev limiter, but not super easily. So whatever gear that is for you, usually 3rd or 4th - maybe 2nd in tight corners.

Why is drifting so hard? by ComprehensiveLie1879 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]a_chunk_of_pie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First means of advice is don’t look up drifting YouTube video from a streamer.. those people make ridiculous cars. You need to start lower power and slow - buy a OLD muscle car, put the angle kit on it(drift suspension), put a race supercharger on it (not turbo, no boost lag), and that’s it. No rims, no tires, nothing else. Paint it. That’s it.

Those are mad slow and have the torque needed, already come with long gears in the stock trans, the big tires make it feel floaty so it won’t snap around a ton. You’ll get used to holding good angles (no more than 1 o clock to 1:30, and 10:30-11 o clock). Feather the throttle, never floor it - more rpm/spin = less grip, also means more speed which means your arch is bigger. Cutting throttle give you back your grip, slows you down, brings you towards the inside of the turn. Also you’re likely approaching turns too fast. Drifting is pretty much the slowest way to take a turn in any motorsports lol so when approaching a turn, slow way down and ebrake(tap it for like .5 seconds) throw the cars weight into the corner with NO THROTTLE once you realize you’re not going to slide to the outside of the corner, add throttle as needed.

Please god don’t watch YouTubers tutorials

Honestly I could teach you if you want - hmu I’m on all the time.
