Turn 10 hat ein neues Update für
Forza Motorsport 2 veröffentlicht, welches automatisch via Xbox Live eingespielt wird. Neben dem zurückgekehrten Lotus Elan, der aufgrund seiner unausgewogenen Fahrleistungen kurzfristig aus dem Spiel verbannt wurde, sind zahlreiche technische Änderungen durchgeführt worden, die vor allem das Thema "Cheating" betreffen.

Car and money duping fixed. We're happy to announce that one of our most damaging vulnerabilities, at least in terms of the Auction House and how it's affected painters and the livery scene, is finally getting plugged up. Although I won't go into the technical specifics of how and where we've put a stop to the duping, we hope the fix will allow everyone to enjoy Forza 2 the way it was intended when we launched the game back in May.

The Lotus Elan is back. Due to popular demand? Maybe. At any rate, we've fixed the classic roadster's performance index glitch that made the car much faster than its PI and class was portraying. You'll be able to once again use the Elan in both multiplayer games and post times to the online scoreboards with this car. Sorry, we still haven't found any real issues with the muscle cars, which brings me to my next bullet...
•
The AWD glitch fixed. This was just an unfortunate situation where in order to fix a bug, we introduced another, and if we apologize again that this issue has really plagued the scoreboards since auto-update #1. Anyway, this bug is fixed, as is that other shifting glitch. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, it's probably better that way. I'll talk about scoreboards in a sec.

A better banhammer has arrived. Taking a cue from Bungie in looking at how they keep troublemakers and undesirables out of their online community, we now have our own game specific tool that will allow me to ban anyone with a Gamertag from interacting with digital objects (i.e., selling/buying/gifting cars and/or transactions with money) in our game. In other words, no more Auction House for those who violate Xbox Live terms of service. Post up racist and/or pornographic cars and your name ends up on my list and the ban is potentially permanent, depending on your case, of course. If we find folks who have discovered new ways to ruin or grief the scoreboards, their times get wiped and we extend the ban beyond just digital objects and they'll no longer be able to play Forza 2 online, period. Anyway, like I said before, this isn't going to affect 99% of you who are playing this game, and if nothing else, we're going to start seeing a much healthier Auction House in the coming weeks.
