Things I think would Improve LFS and really take it to the next level !
I understand that some of my suggestions below may not work because you would need a complete new game Engine ! so please dont look at the idea then leave post saying there stupid there just ideas !
1st - New Pit Stop interaction
ok so ill explain what i would like to be implemented. When your in a race and you pull into the pits you get a pop up box that gives you options to change what tyre your using if you want less fuel then you preset or you dont want the Damage fixed !
When racing in LFS if you get spun out the last thing you want when changing tyres or re-fueling is waiting 30-50secs waiting for damage to repair time can cost you many places in a race ! and also if your in a 20 lap race your tyres maybe wearing out to fast and it would be nice to change the type on a pit stop with out leaving the race !
Also i found a issue with the pits witch kinda bugs me ! if your racing and you have a 30sec time pen when you pull into the pits and stop it wont re-fuel you or change your tyres even if there red ! kinda pointless
2-Car mods
Ok on this i mean give people a selection of alloys, spliters, Spoilers, turbos, and upgrade parts ! I know there is a few tweaks out there and a few servers that support the tweaks !
But i think it would give the game a whole new level allowing people to really adjust there car to how they want some may use a SC and others may use a Turbo ! you know uprate your clutch or breaks. Alow people to use light weight alloys or spliters and spoilers to adjust down force on standard cars ! let people build there car to how they want ! This would work well on multi class servers and cruise server and drift !
I understand that if this was in place everyone would just use all the best parts so it would not make any dif ! this is why there would have to a points system inplace in lfs game and there would need to be dedicated LFS servers when people race to earn points/money to buy there upgrades/mods ! also some people may say well it wont be fair if people have 500bhp vs 200bhp but its not hard to have a multi class server but a 300bhp limit for e.g but people will use dif setups like now but with mods ! I think this would make the game alot more entertaining been able to change your engine to a V,Flat,inlive 4,6,8 and bore them out from 1.2-1.8 and so on ! or convert from FWD-AWD This will challenge not only people skills and driving but there ability to understand cars with there own setups !
3- Cruise servers !
Cruise servers are great fun if you just want to relax and chat with your mates and drive around but after a while there just boring because your going around and around the same track !
Its great you can put items on the tracks but i dont think thats enough !
I have said it because i would like to open tracks ! For e.g some tracks in LFS have 4 or 5 layouts ! so what im asking it a Open layout that puts all 4 or 5 into one that lets people go left or right or straight on makes it more fun !
Plus in cruise servers if your been chased by police you can only go round and round the track ! With a open server it always you to go diff directions to evade them and avode road blocks !
4-The banning system !
Ok this is a strange area !
Now some admins can be a little OTT and have there head up there own **** you know what i mean.
now i understand this is all down to the admins and servers owners to decide on who there put into place to keep the order but this does not always work !
Ok i know because i use to drive on the same server all the time for about a year untill one day a new admin decided he did not like me and banned me with no proof so after been unbanned by the owner he banned me again so i had to be unbanned again ! but he was never taken off admin this happen about 15 times to point i would only have to connect to the server to see him say what the hell who un-banned you. followed by you have just been kicked out ! and as you can see this was realy annoying and i actually got a e-mail from LFS saying i had been banned to many time and i would be banned from all servers for 30 days ! all because some guy kept banning me for no reason !
I sent a very very lengthy e-mail to LFS venting my frustrations with replays and pictures of proof that i only got banned when he joined the servers and so on !!! witch they told me they would look into it ! so i think this needs to be looked at ! maybe a 30 day ban if you banned from 20 dif servers not from the same server
You willbe glad to know the admin banned me for 9999999 and ban me and blocked my e-mails from there forum so i cant get a unban again !! how pathetic !
anyway lol
Point 5- Tracks and cars !
Yes i think everyone wants new cars and tracks ! But waittt ! If you go up to my other point allowing people to mod there cars and so on ! then i think i would be happy with out any new cars because there would be 100 diff ways you could mod your car ! But seeing as they would never ever do that and if they did decide to it would take years to come out just like the new VW car that is still not here ! I know going back to the MODS they said on the VW you wont be able to adjust as much with the current in game setup system because they want to make it more real! Well im sorry but they makes it less real ! What they says is if you own a VW in real life you cant buy air filters or fuel pumps or alloys or anything!!! so to make it more real !!! add upgrades and mod system
So i would like to see at least another 2 cars in each class !
As for tracks ! i would like to see some new tracks and open track optionson all for cruise servers!
So yes thats just a few of my options so feel free to comment on them if you like them and soo on ! I understand like i said some of them would not work in the current LFS engine so there is no need to point it out !
hope you enjoyed reading Leave your views ! I do have alot more to add
