Quote from amp88 :Nobody can give you the answer unless you provide us with more details. Saying you're having lag issues but not telling us any important information (like wired or wireless connection, what other applications are using it, do you share it with anyone (family/neighbours)) won't get you anywhere and it's likely to frustrate people who would otherwise have helped you into not giving you any information.

Oh ok. sorry. Well, I run wired that my whole family uses, and my brother next door to us shares it. But when I'm racing, everything will be just fine; then one lap after I just connected, its like I get disconnected. I can no longer see everyone racing, and then I get kicked to spectate since it's like I'm not even racing. On X10, I have this problem, and the host of a lobby I joined said my connection was too powerful. So, what do I do?
"Lag issues"

Right when I connect somewhere, it says I have a great connection and that I have no lag. Then out of random nowhere, it says I'm lagging majorly. How come?

I'm going to try to convince my parents that I can support myself when I'm 18. They think I can't right now.

Well, I like LFS the way it already is, but LFS with modifiable parts would be interesting. You don't always have to make street racers; you can still make club racers and race inspired cars.

Quote from tristancliffe :No. No it doesn't. It needs to be forgotten. Forever.

Ok let me give you an example. The XRR, that is pretty much the XRG, right? The XRR is modified heavily to the point where it isn't a normal car anymore, but a racecar so it does very well on the track. Interchangeable parts can make the car better for the track, and they just don't have to be power. It can be less weight, better suspension, better clutches, etc. Interchangeable parts just make the racing experience different. Think of Forza for another example.

Quote from LFSn00b :It would just get worse. As above posters said, someone will just find the best combination, and everyone will use it, so not much difference will happen.

Who says it all has to be the same? And how would you know it would get worse? Have you tried it? People could make thousands of combonations for lets say the XRT. Just make the customization levels like Nitto: Nitto has four shops in the game, each with different kinds of parts to them. Like turbos, engines, bodykits, wheels, the whole shibang. So like I said before; this idea needs to be experimented.

Well, interchangable parts could be cool. Just think though; you don't NEED to go insane on tuning. My car on Nitto Legends only has 345hp; otherwise, if I put more boost into the engine, the engine is ruined. So, you can more power in, without going insane. Still, LFS is cool the way it already is; I just want to paint my cars flat or matte colors though.

Just one key thing to point out; if LFS staff wanted this in their next game, they should make a very simple demo and send it to a selected group of LFS gamers. Let the gamers try the demo out, and then survey the entire group. LFS staff could have results that the gamers liked it and that is was fun... or the gamers thought it wasn't a bad idea, but ... or have a total fail altogther. So, this would actually have to involve making a demo and experimenting with the demo. Who knows? It could be a better game, or a worse game.

DOH! There's a tweak.

So, how does everyone like the new patch?

In my point of veiw, it's a great way to help our environment and keep animals alive. Still, if animal population gets out of control, then break out your shotgun.

Well, like all police, they dispose their wrecked cars. I'll take it off their hands for umm... free. Their throwing it away anyway, right?

I thought this was the best album cover ever, and I thought it would make a great skin. Can anyone do this album for the FBM or XRG? Which ever one is easier would be fine.

For a demo, it's okay. I like the Charger they put in there. It does need quite a bit of work, like lighting, the cross randomly in front of your car, the fact the cars bounce off the wall like a bouncy ball, and the fact that they should have made it so YOU do ALL of the driving. Not too bad of a demo, but still needs serious work.

Quote from Stefani24 :Not the best song by them, but Tenacious D rocks. Movie is a must-see if you like that kinda rock.

Yeah I saw the movie! Really funny and cool movie! I like the Beelzeboss song, when JB and KG have to do their part of the song to fight the devil in the rockoff.

Anyway, Hopes Die Last - I Belong To The Skies.

Quote from thisnameistaken :Is there a competition between Jack Black and Will Ferrell to see who can be the least-funny person in the whole ****ing universe?

Ok ok. No need to start something, I'm just saying IMO it's best song in the world. I was just trying to introduce them.

Apparently, it's called Skelta; an upcoming racecar company that might kick some serious ass.

that is sooooo sad. I give my deepest respects to them all. My grandpa fought in WW2 and I never knew it till he he was dead two years later. and irishnoob, I don't see any point in what you said at all, so I consider that a fail.
