Rocket 69 coming...

[prisonermonkeys]

The title is worth something right now so you can buy a cheap 2nd hand copy and then resell it once you have the car.

No, the title is worth buying because it's an excellent game.

Even on XB1? I've read that the frame rate is horrible, usually dipping to around 20 fps.

I've had zero frame rate issues so far. Maybe I don't cause enough explosions.

Nope, I haven't had any noticeable issues. Even in the most intense moments. The only thing that I can think of which might slow it down is a very full hard drive; I only have Dirt Rally, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Fallout 4 and Rise of the Tomb Raider, plus a few DLC packages, and it weighs in at just under 40% full.

I ran into a Brotherhood platoon trying to clear out a horde of super mutants from a bombed-out church in the middle of a radstorm, complete with vertibirds crashing and a super mutant suicider, and the game didn't even so much as bat an eye.

You cant set any rivals times with this. Why? Its not like as if its competitive. Even Turn 10 thinks its a joke car.

 

[GTracer38]

Got the car even though I've never had/played any Fallout game before.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Your loss.

 

[SPhilli911]

The commentary on this car was pretty funny in Forzavista. I also got it to about 254 MPH, because why not.

 

[RacerPaul]

Mmmm, looks lovely in gloss carbon fibre

 

[Clark]

Will I get the Rocket? I have FO4 on PS4 and PC.

You get it if you have Forza 6.

 

[FoRiZon]

You get it if you have Forza 6.

Wait so you can get with any Fallout 4 version?

Also "Atomic V8". I suggest the V8 Engine part moves the wheel while the "Atomic" jet part works like a boost push (like that laser propulsion in Chapparal 2X) in order to make it turn better.

 

[R5]

Wait so you can get with any Fallo

No, you just get it if you've got Forza 6*. You don't need any Fallout to do so.

*I think it's between release and the 1st of May but don't quote me on that.

 

[UKMikey]

Downloaded the car. It's not built to handle Sebring turn 17 at speed LOL.

 

[Eunosthedeer]

Woo hoo I am indeed able to get the rocket 69.

Another car for my series.. Should interesting.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Welp, there's what the Chryslus Crew Chief mod looks like.

 

[VXR]

They missed a trick by not having Pipboy!

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Downloaded the car. It's not built to handle Sebring turn 17 at speed LOL.

It's a two-tonne nuclear-powered brick. It's not built to handle anything at speed. It's meant to be a throwback to the 1950s and the massive Buicks that got about three miles to the gallon. Within the Fallout universe, it's a symbol of all the excess, decadence and consumption that sets in motion events that will destroy the world.

Sounds like a perfect choice for a competitive racing game.

It's just a bit of cross-promotion. Ironically, the cars don't actually do anything in the game, except maybe explode.

 

[Casey]

I'm so nice, 3...2...1...Go!

 

[ImaRobot]

Hopefully you've redeemed it before posting the screen shot

Nope I didn't, I don't have Forza 6 anymore and I'd rather let someone else have it.

Reading it again after you saying that makes a bit more sense lol.

 

[Obelisk]

Brilliant in a straight line after 6k RPM, utter rubbish in the turns.

 

[JR98]

Went on the XB1 today to download Sunset Overdrive and got the code for this car. Only driven it at classic La Sarthe and managed to get to 254 MPH on the Mulsanne straight, and when it came to the end of the straight I braked a little to late, hit the rear of a bronze Ford GT and rolled 5 or 6 times, which pretty much killed the engine, limiting it to 50HP.



Roll is at 7:10

 

[TonyJZX]

i dont think the handling and braking is anywhere near as bad as many people make it out to be.

Its manageable. If you're up into over 250mph then be aware of braking distances. Its the same story with the Koeniggegg One.

You stack it once or twice and you should 'get it'. If you dont then Forza isnt really for you.

It does respectable times around Le Mans. The fact it doesnt register times on rivals is a killer for me. Whats the point then.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Whats the point then.

Like I said - cross-promotion. Bethesda evidently see it as a way to attract more gamers to one of their flagship titles, especially since they're rolling out their own DLC campaign for Fallout 4 right now. And if you're not interested in Fallout 4, then it's just a bit of fun that you get for free.

The brakes are bad, but that's in comparison to all cars in its class. It has the speed of the Veyron with the stopping power of a classic muscle car.
