To all those who play Forza...

I'm would like to express my feeling on bumping... when a server has stated NO Bumping Please Listen to the server Rolling Eyes

I know you can turn off collision but some people LIKE trying to avoid other racers while racing it takes more skill and on a good note...

I host every night at 10pm Pacific Time and have 4 other racers with me or atleast 2 so try to join us

yes that is understandable.... but when you are being constantly pushed by the person behind or next to you that gets annoying.... and I happen A LOT last night by a person with the forza name kin.....

If no one else cares then bump, push, ram people off the road fine.

But I personally like clean skillful racing which is why when I host it's A-D class only, clean races and I will actively kick and ban people for dirty racing.

This is one of those times it sucks to not have voice in game becuase I can warn someone in the chat room between races that they need to race clean, but if they aren't reading the chat then it just bites, I have to stop and kick them, and that basically means I am loosing this race since I will loose about 10-30 seconds finding the user name and booting it... and if it's not the same as the kai name then I risk booting a good player Sad

if you have a pc nearby.. try TeamSpeak. I would prefer to push the kai ui.. but its jut frustrating to have to go to messenger mode to enable voice.

if you use teamspeak, you can give them your server when they join the room... the more people that use it, the better comms will be for games like this.

hopefully the kai ui will support voice a little better in the next version but with the xbmc users out there.. teamspeak is still the better option.

note: you can get a bluetooth headset (cell phone accessories) and adapter(pc bluetooth) for under $70 and is good for wireless comms up to 30 feet (10 meters) away. Thats what a few of us are doing.. others just use regular pc mic's

Yeah and it's not hard to tell when it's bumping and when somebody is trying to run you off the road. The main problem I have with collisions being on it is that sometimes lag can cause problems.
