I bought the Horizon Edition Jag that gives an XP boost this morning before heading into work, looking forward to giving it a spin later!

So now my music plays but it skips around in the tracks.
Oh well.

Some of my songs skip to the end before the song is finished.
My main gripe is that the groove playlist isn't randomized.

Need For Speed Rivals did this better 3 years ago Playground smh.

Because the default offering is also broken.

Earlier it was like yeah, this is a cross-country race so maybe you don't want to drive hypercars on this race, so here's like.. offroad buggies! Yeah!

Now it's just like.. whatever class you're driving it'll just say yeah take this.

And i dont want to do the events myself because it just takes the excitement away.

I'm on PC btw.
And I finally got my VIP icon. Too bad wheelspins still not VIP....

Wait lol, wheel spins aren't doubled despite having VIP fixed.

Anyone else have the same issue after VIP was sorted for you?

So I redeemed the Warthog code a while back, it's not showing up in manage games, and I don't see it in the garage. Any suggestions?

I have the exact same issue. HeliosT10 said they are looking into the Warthog issues. I also really want to drive that thing. :(

That's not true.
I just took a Volvo 850 R to the Byron Bay East Bridge Scramble.
It's a hot hatch race, I can't use the Volvo.

Why are you not using the default races?

Can someone explain how to use my personal music instead of radio channels?

Make a playlist in Groove on your PC.
In the ingame audio settings, choose that playlist.

I can only get the first playlist I made to work.
The rest just constantly load :(

I have no idea how they did it. But this application doesn't have a volume slider in the Windows mixer. I legit can't play this game while on Discord because even with the 'Midnight' preset or all the sliders down to 1 the game still tries to deafen me.

I switched over from the PC to Xbone version today due to the fucked photomode on PC, and I'm really surprised by how good the IQ is on the Xbone. Even going from erratic 60fps to 30fps didn't bother me as it's so smooth. Think I'll stick with it even if they fix the PC version.

I'm really enjoying it too, could be my GOTY ..too bad I have to work away from home for the next 4 days :(

Glad to hear VIP is now working for those who had issues on PC, thanks again for your patience whilst we got to the bottom of things.

Either that or explain your problem better.

Okay so, let's take the Coober Pedy Trail event @ the Outback. It's listed as a Trail Event.

Now let's take a Ferrari 458 Italia to it, normally the Default suggestion would be an offroad buggy race or something:

p0LL

OK.

Then let's go take an Ariel Nomad which is an off-road buggy and we get this:


The game definetly did not work like this yesterday..

Note: Blueprints still not loading.

That's because you have already did the default.
Makes sense if you drive up to an event to let you do in the car you are driving.

Go to a race you haven't did before.

Is there really no other way to play it on PC than to buy it for 70€ in the Windows Store? That's...not very inviting.

Well you could buy digital codes outside of the store or buy from a cheaper store region. But there's not much else to do.
 
We are, that's next on the agenda. I may ask some of you guys who are affected for emails so we can reach out to you for more info. This is what we did yesterday with some PC players and it obviously really helped.

Cool, sorry if I sounded a bit terse, I'm glad to hear they're working on it.

I'm honestly more vexed with xbox support, who told me that my issue was because the dlc wont be available till the 27th.

Never done this race, still same as the one I have.

You are right enough there but I think what it is, is, in exhibitions you can use anything but in championships you use what they tell you.

Earlier when I mentioned East Bridge Scramble I looked at Championship, not Exhibition.

Okay guys I'm throwing down for the "Hail to the King" Monthly Rivals.



Hope to see some of you on there!

Awww yea



Surprisingly easy to drive without TCS. Every time I dirtied my lap it was from understeering into a barrier, not because of how overpowered the car is.

Nice! I quickly set my time from 2 attempts last night before bed, I'll have to give it another go later.

Question about TCS - is it possible to accelerate quicker with proper use of throttle control with TCS off?

I believe so, yes. It's like how you can brake faster without ABS by finding the exact pressure where the wheels lock and being gentler than that.

Thanks, Playground Gamers and Turn 10 for the VIP fix. Mercedez PreOrder Car though, still a marketplace error...(hmm, maybe its a download on Win10 Store)

Definetly not, the Exhibitions should work just like a championship.

You guys think more people bought the Ultimate edition then the standard edition? Because this thread already goes like crazy and cannot think what will happen Tuesday lol. :p

Finished my second livery. Forgot how fun this is!

I'm so confused by the marketplace UI though. It seems like if I share a design from my car, if I edit the car it removes it from the storefront (maybe?) At least if I go to the design again it says SHARE instead of UNSHARE.. so I made a livery save and then shared that then I checked my storefront and the design is there twice. WTF ;_; But there is no way to unshare from your storefront. Makes no sense.

147/150 billboards

I know where two are but can't figure out some jumps to get them, and one of them is on my map but when I drive to the spot it isn't there and have no clue how to get below the ground... Fuckin' billboards.

Follow the train tracks all the way around.

Do we think Playground have a hit on their hands?

They've made bank with all of our £80/$100's anyway lol.
