personally i agree with the post above.. in real life, lets say.. ohh.. lemans or something. Not all the cars have the same specs, nor do they drive the same, or have the same speed. It mostly depends on the driver (as long as they are driving a car of the same class). In Formula 1, in the past, often the Ferraris have dominated, but there are places where it has issues. Maybe even farther in the future they could make certain brands of tires have issues... but... that belongs in the improvements section, and is just minor.
All im saying is that there will be that one car that is just awesome. The people who like the other cars will just have to use them when they know they can win... like... said before about RB4 having major tire wear... well, during a long race that is sure to hurt them. Its all about strategy..

the great part is that Scawen and everyone is smart enough to use files that not everyone (actually, not many) no how to use. The amount of people that know exactly how is unknown to me. This is good that there is no chance for dumb modifications to be made, and the game can be monitored much easier. Sadly, this also means that making slightly cooler looking 3d models is out of the picture. But the fact that they have control over almost everything is good, and keeps the community under control.
Edit: Besides, the only thing i dont like is that you cant edit ALL the textures... but... eh, o well ^^ they're doing a great job on the game

sadly, i have to give a
+1
cause if its used in real life, it should be in a simulation. ESPECIALLY on the BF1. Seeing how its a real car. =/
If there is one thing id like to see.. its the tires looking like they wear as you go on... but.. that wont... probably happen....

im sure theres a way to get this.
Theres ALWAYS a way to get something to work, otherwise, how did they get it to the way it was?
I'll look into it.. when i have more time and a computer that actually runs my programs correctly =/
edit: of course im not saying i KNOW theres a way, i mean, there probably is.. just... it might be a way that is harder than its worth XD

hmm.. well, if you had a program to edit DDS files, im sure you could yourself... lemme get a try =) im bored, got nothing to do...
just... gimme a little bit...

ok, listen, Drifting is a form of racing, and there are many other forms of racing, so you cant say that they cant be added into a racing simulator, because it DOES happen in real life, and it CAN be simulated. I think what people want is something to the effect of some kind of down hill/uphill track that allows for a few different types of racing. =) But personally, lawnmower and semi-truck racing is kinda silly, i mean, drifting down hill works, you can also do rally races downhill, and hillclimb races too. =) You could pretty much make a track (something similar to Autocross) that has many different areas of track made SPECIFICLLY for that style of racing =) see, everyone could win...
..now... i think i put 3 smilieys in there.. kinda overkill, isnt it?

Im thinking maybe they should make it so that you could turn that off?
I mean, you dont need to have bits and pieces, id just like to see the tire be flat at the bottom ^^

i think what hes saying is that the cars dont seem to slide everywhere like they used to, and i feel it too...
^^ id like to have cars that stick to the road a little better, or maybe make it so that drifting in certain cars make it slower or somehting >.< i hate seeing people sliding all the time, it makes me want to... *stabs door*

yes, but first i would like accurate damage models =/
Heres what happened to me...
1. Car flips, hits wall going about 110, keeps going perfectly fine after knocking a few tires in front of me...
2. I hit tires, going about 70 because i didnt want to hit the car that was going slow after wrecking, and i flip, and my front-left suspension is pretty much gone...
=/ I would personally like to see the damage physics fixed before the transmission is fixed. Though im going to love the day when people that drive at 10000 rpms blow their engines =) I liked that features in NASCAR RACING 2003 season.. people shift down, *poof* black smoke starts coming out, peoples windshields are getting dirty, and they are DONE... forever!....
Thats another thing.... Maybe make it that during a race they cant just return to pit, get a brand new car, and wreck it =/ Make them drive into the pits, then leave, but they cant return =) sure, people that were wrecked out are mad, but people who are bad drivers wont make everyone else suffer... besides, then they wont have unlimited cars, and they might drive safer.... ^^

heres an idea... if people want to do a mod, then they can..
They can send it to people they know, and that good stuff, but it wont affect the main server.. (ahem, the game wont allow them to use the mod on the main server list) but maybe allow hosting of ip races so they can beta and stuff...
Then if they feel its ready, they can send it to the devs to have it added to the main server if its absolutely perfect (weeeeeeeeee, if anything, at least let people come out with cockpit models... ^^ i want someone to make a model with all the wires and maybe even a bottle of gatorade sitting on the floor that rolls when you turn XD)

I got a few random ideas that i'll probably add on too as i remember them (i was conteplating what i would do if i made a racing game before i saw lfs)
Anyways.. here we go
Not So Important:
1. People who spectate can choose to sit in a stand and stay in one position and their driver appears where they are watching or something =/ it be kind of interesting, kind of pointless... but it sounds cool XD
2. Make it so that certain cars can change brake bias on the fly (i dont know if the BF1 has it, i havent checked, and i forgot if i already knew, im very forgetful)
3. I miss bump drafting..... it seems to motorscycle-like when you get hit square in the back =/
4. Make the cars seem more..... heavy i guess... only NASCAR SIM RACING has given me that kind of "IM ACTUALLY IN THE CAR AND ITS HEAVY" feel...... that was the only thing i liked about that game.....(i hate EA, but i liked that the car actually felt like gravity was acting on it) maybe its because i can go 30k/ph on tarmac and still feel like im driving on gravel in lfs.. i dont know =/
5. Adjustable Mirrors (like, side mirrors...)
6. Maybe give the server hosts (and administrators) more powers ? (wouldnt know, maybe make those powers easier to use?)
7. Have everyone join the Chat room at the server choice.... people would get to hear about stuff more often than probably what they would =/
8. Oh, heres a nice one for the Devs... add a news ticker in the multiplayer screen.... sure its a useless feature and can wait till S3.. but still, itd be nice to announce stuff like maintance on the master server and stuff =/
9. Static Pit Stops - I'll explain. You know how some people will pit in a random spot taht they can get too? Make it so that they have to pit (and come out of the garage) in the same spot every time =/ (seems slightly useful but yet it seems useless hmm)
10. Keep up the great work =)
Useful Important Items:
1. Fix the issues that everyone repeats over and over..
(More to come, ran out of ideas)
2. Maybe give out "Full versions" of the tracks, like... SO or FE, so that they can make a whole new track out it instead of... actually, im thinking about how that would confuse the entire wrong way thing and i find that a retarded idea now that i think about it =/
Yea, this is pointless.. i had a whole bunch of great ideas the other night... ill remember them eventually....
sorry i wasted everyones time... and LFS's server space.... but.. im bored.. and im saving a space to type what i was goign to tell eveyrone three days ago...
