Did a shopping spree yesterday bought a lp640 SV and a Aventador. I hate how no one can get the sounds right for those two.
 
Anyone come up against my Drivatar?, my Gamertag is Jamobomb15, also what car do I drive?..

Haven't come across your drivatar but I believe the car changes to whatever you used last, at least while you're online. My friend kept telling me what car I was driving in his session and it was correct to what I was driving at the time.
 
Finished another championship and had a little time to work on another vinyl. Also some random wheel spins and a pic just before I hit level 70 last night. Just cant get enough of this game. :)

Not having the best luck with Wheelspin lately, saved seven up earlier and won a total of 70k credits and a Civic Type R, not bad but not brilliant either..

That's a free 70k Credits and a free Civic Type R you would not have on the 360 version. ;)
 
I've also heard this update also gives engine noises to the Skyline R32. Unfortunately after updating some of my cars have been made inaccessible with the infamous "Installation in progress, you are free to continue playing" bug. Argh, don't tell me I have to uninstall and reinstall the game and DLCs... :banghead:
 
Last night I thought I would check out the Forza Hub app again and it seems they gifted me 60K...Dont know if this a random thing since its not at the begining of the month...So check it out see if you got some free money sitting there

When I got this bug I only had to reinstall the main game. It takes a fair while though.

There is one thing that kind of bugs me: if you uninstall the game do you lose your save data or they're all backed up into the cloud? I am at around level 250, and I don't want to redo the whole game all over again.

My console actually had a data file saved for FH2 on the console but I think they keep a copy synced in the cloud too.

Okay, but after reinstalling the game did you have to restart the career from the beginning?
 
It wouldn't be an issue if the Horizon logo weren't so big and ugly.

No because it used the data from the saved file. When I deleted the game I couldn't see the file but I guess it was still there or the game loaded a cloud copy. Any rate, all my cars and progress were still intact.

Any chance you've moved from Tier 6 to Tier 7 this month while playing Horizon 2? That would give you 600K for every Xbox One and 60K for every Xbox 360 game instantly?

Anyone else get this?

I need to check when I've got time tonight, but I did not have anything yesterday. Non-VIPs getting these too?
 
My plan right now is to finish all the road trips/championships quickly. I've completed 20 of 28 in each region so far. I love the old cars, so I'm saving up for the expensive classic cars. I'm trying to go from most expensive to least expensive. That way the grinding happens early while I'm still very enthusiastic about the game, and then the classic cars because less expensive and easier to buy each time, thus avoiding the inevitable waning of enthusiasm as the months roll by. Just like in FH1, once all the races have been finished, my interest in painting cars and Forzatography will keep my playing for a long time.
 
I'm a vip so I can't say if a non vip got the Veneno or not.

Well, I didn't get it. :( Must've been a VIP thing.

Wow, that's a lot. I started with a few I wanted to do, then did all the ones needed to unlock the finales, more or less in random regions, then a couple more I wanted to do while doing a lot more Rivals post-race. I probably mix and match now, do some stuff when I want to do it, and throw in a championship in each of the regions when I don't feel like anything in particular, starting with the cars I like to drive least.

Recently I've began to do head-to-head races specifically to purchase upgrade parts for your vehicles. Considering that many of us are saving up for the over 2,000,000 cr vehicles in this game, I wish I would have started doing this much sooner (I have completed all the championships). What I usually do is start my races around the main Horizon festival location and challenge drivatars as they're leaving the festival heading towards Castelleto. There are only three different race routes and with all the open space near the festival that means you can do a lot of short cutting. With my difficulty level maxed out (except auto transmission and rewind on), it isn't difficult to beat a S1 or S2 classed car with an A classed WRX STI wagon (my daily). With about a 95% bonus you'd be surprised about how quickly you can make 100,000 cr. (even when you race average skilled drivatars) considering each race is only a few seconds long.
