[QUOTE="angryfodder"]I've been playing this quite a bit. I am starting to get the "been here, done this before" feeling - however, thats not really the games fault, i've just put too many hours into all the forza games. My only issues with the game so far is that I am not sure if the AI has taken a step backwards or not. One of the main reasons I loved forza over GT was that the AI was alot better. It really seemed like you were racing. In this latest forza, the AI seems less aware of you? Anyone else feeling that? I am also not sure about the rewind. Yeah I know I don't have to use it. But if its there, I will. It takes the exciting edge off the game a little bit. I've not checked yet - can it be disabled like the other assists?Panosola
Yes you can disabled this like the other assists if you want.

You can only disable the message that appears after you've screwed up.

I agree that they should have made this toggleable..? Is that a word? Toggable? Customizable. It does alter the way in which you perform on the track. I find myself screwing up more often than I remember doing in Forza 2 as I'm pushing harder and if push too hard it doesn't matter.

But on the other hand I wouldn't want to do without this feature. I think Greenawalt's remark about Codemasters' implementation of it being faulty, is faulty. Don't remember what exactly his problem with it was, but I think it's a good compromise. You have a limited amount of rewinds so you can screw up, but if you do you've got one less try later on in the race, which you might need. So there's still that element of tension. You don't want your rewind supply to dwindle.

They could always patch something like this in, and I hope they will, but I think they won't.

I can also remember when cows bashed damage in a racing game. Until it finally (or should I say presumably, until we see the final release of GT5) came to GT. Then it became an important bullet point :P

This being aimed more towards custom painting for racing games than the rewind feature.

Until you get on the track and you have at least one player in every race trying to ruin your race by purposely slamming into you :evil:

I think it's highly unrealistic to believe a community is free from d-bags such as that..You get people like that even on paid services like iRacing

In any event you can choose a gameplay type were car collisions are off or just join a room where the drivers are clean….My overall experience has been just that……clean races…

And THAT right there is OWNAGE on ZoomZoom, and every basher of the painting feature of Forza 3. This is what the nay sayers just don't get. It doesn't have to be clown faces, pokemon, gang signs, or the power rangers. It can be as accurate to duplicating real raceing liveries, or even better yet, YOUR OWN CUSTOM RACING ORGANIZATION THEME DESIGN. It's not just customization, it's PERSONALIZATION to make the car as uniquely your own on the outside as it is on the inside (engine and frame tuning, etc...)

You don't get this level of customization in GT :D And theONLY reason they bash it is because they don't have it.
