Online for a few days, anything I should definetly buy ?
Hey all,
I'm online for a few days while I wait for my fanatec stuff, is there any stuff I should grab from auctions and store fronts while I'm here?
Also any cars I should definetly get? Do you guys have a list of topless cars I should grab, like the radicle, sterling moss etc. I like open cockpit style racers and which ones should I pickup while I have the chance?
Additionaly, do you guys have any tunes, designs and cars from/for races that I should have lying around just in case, that I can buy from your store fronts?
Cheers,
I'll get you a club invite sent out. Then you'll have access to our club garage. There are plenty of good cars there. Then if you find something you really like, you can message the person who shared it & ask for an unlocked version of the tune or paint.
Awesome :)
I grabbed a monthly pass until my wheel arrives then ill go back onto a full subscription :)
Cheers,
Search "Kraigger75" in the storefront or "ALS". I highly recommend any of thier tunes. Ya I am partial to them because I am part of the garage but, ey, what can I say, the tunes are excellent.
I agree, always have been top tuners.
Will do, I've also just bought a load of classic F1 Style (Senna/Mansel etc) liveries for the radicals plus an F1 style tune for it :) was fantastic blasting it around the vally. Shame that forzas tracks are so limited though...
i cnt see the community garage yet though, will I receive tht in forza or the dash?
I didn't get a chance to send a club invite yesterday. I"ll get one out this afternoon.
When you load up the game, you should see a message in your inbox. Just like when you recieve a gifted car or message from turn 10.Once you accept, you'll be able to access the club garage.
club invite sent.
Thanks for the tune Tourni, Thanks for the invite Cotter :)
Also, I just bought churches radicle tune and covered it in an old Mansell outfit :)
Any cars/tunes/groups I must buy, join ...get etc..
Also, it's official that my fnatec stuff won't arrive this year :( got an email confirming delays/stock... I'm hugely pissed off as that's £1000 for products that they claim they have in stock and quite clearly don't.
They have officially screwed me for Xmas :( I like their products, but how does that company make a profit?
They have the worst reputation with users on line, claim products that never get released, make people wait for months/years and finally, make you pay for something they say they have, take your money then tell You six weeks later That you can't have it until next year?
Im Tempted to shop else where, but they have no real competitors in this area/price range etc so I suppose until they are challenged they will continue to be a little lacklustre with their support.
So, I'm on a pad for now, but maybe this delay will make me buy the CSW instead of the initial CSR Elite... Gonna be a lonely and empty Xmas day though for me guys :(
It does seem a bit of a lottery. My Elite arrived whithin 5 days of ordering and I ordered it when it was out of stock. I have also had no problems with their customer sevice getting one small issue with my CSR sorted (peeling Alcantera) quickly and with minimum fuss. Remember the CSW doesn't support Xbox...Of course that would mean you would be joining us over at 2O2R so I'm all for that :-)
Hey, I have a paint shop if you get bored...
and a thread up in the paint section. If you see something that's not on the S/F AND you want it, let me know...
I'll come send some pennies in your store today, I'll defo pick up some of your designs as they are very very good :)
Cheers...
Totally gutted about my wheel.. I have had a poor experience so far with fanatec, god forbid I need any customer service. I just don't understand why they are so obtuse when you talk to them, as if somehow I am in the wrong for giving them £1000 and expecting my items to arrive when they were stated to. They make it out as if it's not important, I find that very strange/insulting.
Anyway. No wheel until 2013 for me, but this really does change things up for me... As it will then seem pointless for me to buy an Elite, particularly when the next Xbox is due to be announced in may/June ready for sale at thanksgiving. Do I really want a £500 elite that me be redundant after 6 months... Maybe the CSW is the better choice for late buyers? I wish Microsoft would mention if they will support current peripherals and/or if thy were supporting HID USB devices, they completely dropped support for perhiperals between xbox and 360 ... Will they do it again?
Anyway, that's an entire other topic :)
