When is this?

Saturday the 20th of October at 21:00 BST

 

How long will this last?

We are aiming for 1 hour on each game.

 

Who are the team member's?

Its currently 7 v 7 with a spot for anyone to drop in on the night.

Team Forza:

Fitzy5
X204FxSurf
Nunderw00b
Parcells2

 

 
Team Halo:
 
wamam87
CannedHeat101
Silent Evil74
OldnAchy
Kenjamin1 MI
 
 
What events are you doing?
 
Forza Events: (Please note. All cars will be predefined stock cars that will be available from the game garage for ALL Forza events)
 
1.Tag Virus (Car = 2009 Lotus 2-Eleven A590 / Track =  Silverstone National Circuit)
Basically Zombie mode where one player starts of as IT. They then have to touch another car and they also become part of the IT group, then both cars chase the NOT IT cars till they touch another one, then that car goes to the IT group. This process is repeated till there is only one NOT IT car who is declared the winner.

The scoring is pretty easy on this one. Unfortunately though if you are the 1 starting IT car you come 10th (It is randomly selected though), then the next car that gets hit comes 9th then 8th ect ect

2.Cat and Mouse (Cars - Mouse = 2011 Chevy Spark / Cat = 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR / Track = Nurburgring GP)
Each team will have 1 lower class car (D, E, F). The rest of the cars are higher class cars (S, A, B).
 
The team who gets there lower class car (Mouse) over the line first wins the round!! Although the higher class cars (Cats) must stop this from happening using any means possible.
 
3.Keep the IT (Car = 2005 Ford GT   / Track = Sunset Peninsula Speedway)
Like reverse tag. The team who KEEPS the IT the longest wins.
 
4.Stock Racing: 2007 Honda Civic Type R (C390) @ Infinion Raceway Long Course
 
5.Stock Racing: 1999 Lamborghini Diablo GTR (S700) Hockenheimring Full Circuit
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Halo Events:
 
1. Vehicular Hill on Hemmorage - Winner gets 10 pts, loser gets 0 pts
 
2. Head Concussion on Sword Base - Score it just like the individual forza matches.
 
3.Head Concussion on Sword Base - 4 teams of four; 150 pts; 1 pt per kill, 5 bonus pts for splaters, 1 bonus pt for a grenade stick;
 
4. Team Slayer on Asylum - 100 kills; winner gets 10 pts, loser gets 0 pts.
 
5. SLayer FFA on Arena Zealot -  Scored on kills

 

How are points scored?

To keep it simple only the top 5 members from each team will score points and they are as follows:

1. 10

2. 9

3. 8

4. 7

5. 6

6. 5

7. 4

8. 3

9. 2

10. 1

Once the top 5 finishing members points have been collected from each team the remaining players (IF any) from that team will be dropped from the standings. 

If there is a Team game where no Single player has a defined finishing position the winning Team will score 5 Points for that round and the loseing team will score 0.

Can I still join this?

If you have Forza 4 and Halo Reach YES!

 

If you are unsure about anything just post on this topic and ask!

 

Cheers

Could do with 5 Halo players that have Forza.

 

I think I have 5 Forza players with Reach. (But that would mean I already have 5 Players with Forza and Reach 98)

I have Forza but I think my saved game is screwed up. Something about a corrupted save file? Have you heard that before? In any case this might be interesting? Whatcha got in mind?

@ Xero On your Xbox dashboard go to memory options and in to your Forza saved game. Do you see any files that say Corrupt? If so remove only the deleted file clear your cache and start her up.

 

Although I do hope it isn't your main save file as you will have to start again. Although if you do PM me and I will get your some CR and cars sent over.

 

In regards to the event I was thinking about doing a Group v Group kind of tournament.

You come and play our game and we come and play yours. Add points up and the team with the most wins.

 

I need to fire Reach up but can anyone tell me if there is any "Fun" modes. eg A round of Forza might include a game of Car Soccer

I deleted the corrupted file. Thank you.  Everything seems to be ok. I only played it for a few weeks and its been a few months since I booted up the game. I don't even know what I deleted from my career.128

@church - there are a ton of custom games that are fun.

 

as far as standard MM games, i think they pulled "action sack" from the shelf. that's where all the silly game types were. i'm pretty sure they can still be downloaded and played in custom matches though. games like soccer/hockey. a giant soccer ball that you hit around with a giant hammer or super sized golf club.

 

don't worry about trying to find stuff. just say the word i'll get some stuff together.1

 

 

just wondering...if i rent the game, will i be able to play with you guys or is there stuff i would have to unlock to participate?

I think the Forza 'soccer game' -shown in video- is downloadable content. (fee)

* imho we should Race in Forza (evenly matched vehicles) and Shoot in Halo, with maybe a grifball or hockey match, or a mongoose race on the side. He said VS. right?! 40

Forgot the Top Gear track is DLC 116

 

Also I think Kenjamin1 MI idea of just racing v shooting.

 

If we do that I would have everyone in the same stock car with no tuning / Upgrading allowed to ensure its a fair playing field.

 

With Halo Reach can you upgrade your guns ect and have a better advantage like BattleField?

 

If we get 10 players in total (5v5) I would just issue points after each round to all 10 players.

 

All I have to do then is added all the points each team member has scored.

Its not a trap ... really 45

Here's the part I disagree with...guys with massive Forza experience are better able to handle a bone-stock car. If you really want to make it fair...let the Halo guys upgrade cars to max out in the same class. You mopping the floor with a bunch of noobs is not a fair fight (EUSL Season 2 Champion,2011 International GT Open Champion, Fairlady Cup Champion,Factory Spec Champion)...and you know it.

It's a trap!!

At least give us tire upgrades and weight reduction, if you can do that in Forza 4.

if anyone thinks the forza guys will be that much better @ halo than we'll be at racing they should rethink things. the way I see it, this should be about some laughs and good times. I'm expecting to get stomped on the track and return the favor on the battlefield. I also think if it's to be a "triathalon" we should have the third event be something like Dance Central....something as equally embarrassing for both parties. ;b posting live shots in the forum gets you bonus points. lol

I would imagine that you would get your asses handed to you even if you were allowed to max out the pi to the class above what the Forza guys are running stock. I would hope that you would reciprocate and handicap the Halo matches in a way to make them more fair to the Forza guys.I'm not in the triathlon so if you guys just want to kill noobs in your respective games of expertise then I have no qualms about it...but I wouldn't run matching bone-stock cars with Church Pro and I'm a Forza guy.

Or give em a head start or something. I wouldn't assume to tell you guys how to run the triathlon, I was just pointing out that the fact that the Factory Spec Champion, who has turned more bone-stock laps than anyone in 2old4forza, would claim that everyone running a factory car would be a fair race when in actuality it gives the guy with extensive factory spec experience a huge advantage. It would be like me issuing a Fujimi Kaido race challenge in A-Class Muscle Cars.

Thanks Church. I'll look into that. I didnt haver a huge collection in the garage but losing everything would definetly SUCK!

 

@ sarcasmo - Wams idea of equal cars is fine. As long as everyone starts with a DMR. Yes I'll probably hit every wall on the track 100 times and will be one of the last to cross the finish. But payback would be sweet when its time to shoot. The racers might not even know if they'e getting bullets in the face or the ass. It ultimately comes down to points at the end. This could be good times.

@Wamam no problemo...looks like church is altering the race conditions to allow upgrades, effectively rendering my point moot. you guys enjoy the triathlon. I will attempt to provide a better explanation for my opposition to a stock-restricted room for everyone.i wouldn't necessarily claim that it was intentional to begin with...a lot of the Euro guys like to run factory spec races. Most new guys will find a car or two in each class that they have managed to get a tune for that works for them. These are their go-to cars and, when a lobby opens, these are the cars that they feel most comfortable using. When you take away the tune it completely changes the car because, believe it or not, tuned cars drive differently than their bone stock version. When a lobby is restricted to stock-only the new guy is driving a version of his car that he may have never driven and is completely unfamaliar with. Pit a new guy, in the unfamaliar car, up against a guy who is intimately famaliar with factory spec cars and the race becomes very lopsided very quickly. Restricting a lobby to bone-stock works well with players of a similar caliber but can be unfair to new guys. I hope that's a better explanation.
