Yep, nothing shows up on the minimap. Look for small barns with wide open doors. When you drive into the doors a cutscene kicks in as previously mentioned. Usually it's a dirt road, or a break in the guard rail, or a small drive way, etc.

I'm all for that, as long as I've finally been invited to the "club". I'm ready to get my inaugural beat down. It certainly won't be pretty.
Who cares whether it's art, dude? It's FUN, and that's all that matters! :)

Pk, I appreciated the invite last night, but I am taking a page straight from your playbook. I'm getting the game this weekend from my brother, who works at Microsoft, for $20. I'm seeing him at a family reunion, so I had to wait.

But feel free to invite again, as I would have loved to jump in and play.

Right on, dude. Well done on the discount! :)

Against my better judgment, I've jumped into the fray with this one.

Can I get a club invite, please?

F*CKING AWESOME! Just like this game.

You need to drive to the Car Club section in the Forza Horizon festival hub area. Search for DSP among car clubs, and you'll see the club. Once you've done that, Terry, Teal or I can approve your application.

Welcome aboard the Horizon train!

I have band practice tonight and plan on seeing Friendship 7 and a Gemini capsule in orbit, so I'm looking forward to some Horizon online with you cats, probably after midnight (ET). :) :) :)

Cool.

Just a heads-up for Horizon newbies: You don't need to be in the DSP club to race in a private DSP room. But you won't have access to the many cars that DSP members have shared in the club garage, one of the coolest features in the game.

Great fun and racing last night, fellas. Sorry I was a bit overexcited. Will be quieter next time. :oops:

No you won't... :wink:

Sorry about my "Barry White" voice last night, and demeanor. Had a long, rough day saying goodbye to a dear lady and grandma. Wasn't really in the mood for social gaming when I joined in, but I needed that. Thanks...

Sorry to hear, Teal.

Glad the racing proved to be a diversionary entertainment for you.

I was half asleep myself last night too, but the game was still a blast!

Sorry, dude. Now I know why you were so subdued when I asked you, "Are you feeling f*cking AWESOME, tonight, man?" and you uncharacteristically said no.

Hang in there.

Sorry I didn't connect with you guys last night. I was half asleep finishing up an xcom mission and didn't even see Dan's message until today. Looking forward to playing soon, though.

Five minutes, no infected. I'm a f*cking disgrace. :evil:

Still was GREAT fun to race and play Infected with a big DSP room. Let's do it again soon! Thanks.

That was awesome. Then again, even if the night consisted solely of PK's "My God, it's full of stars" moment when he found the chocolate milk stash in his own house, it would've been worth it. :)

Thanks for the pointers, everyone. Really had a good time.

That chocolate milk was the nectar of the gods, man. Simple Nesquik in a bottle, sweet mocha perfection. :)

F*CKING AWESOME.

I can only think of Paul's cat wearing one of the countless I am not amused faces as he so often falls victim to the business end of PK's forza conversations:

:lol:

P 'Jellyfinger' K was the excellent host as always, however.

Some true LOL moments. Had a real blast playing AS infected on infected last night. There were some really sweet escapes, including a golf bunker that had me soaring OVER Teal instead of into him, and a sweet swerve by Terry, I think, that had me and Boom slam head on bumper to bumper as he just skittered away. It's just really fun to watch some of those moments, and they happen more and more in that mode, now.

Nice to play with everyone!

What time are you all playing? I was on the last two night sometime after 10:00pm ET but never saw anyone. Possibly in my efforts to fix my NAT issues, I have made things worse. Sounds like it was a good time.

PS - Are there no replays online and no way to save replays even in single player mode?

The times I've been on with the boys it'd been closer to midnight eastern and later even.
