Something tells me he already has an S2.

Quote from JO53PHS :

Although these people are more likely to care if someone bumped them off, since they are racing for championship points.

Granted and I am not criticising anyone in that thread because it's arguably all part of the gamesmanship. However, from what I can see, points were accrued in the CTRA league too (I never played) and whilst it's manageable for a championship with 7 rounds for that kind of moderation, it's a bit much to ask for daily races. Looking on that site they dealt with 4,000 reports, nearly a third of which the dismissed as unfounded. That's quite a whinge mountain.

Can see where cargame.nl is coming from. I was reading this thread http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=78053 last night, which is just from one race. I dread to think what an easy reporting system is like from daily races over multiple servers.

Cool song

Really good work.

I am not offended, just bored by you, even if you are a shining wit.

It's more about how you take the corner before.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Last race is not last play, nice try though. There are quite a few people on the forum who don't play the game.

Fine and I understand your reasons for doing so but people don't need to hear them multiple times a day.

Do you seriously post every day on the forum of a game you haven't played for 2 1/2 years?

Quote from Si Mclaren :

First, know before you talk... At various races in this year, Hamilton had tire overheating problems...

How he avoided this? Changed the way how he drive.
In real life races, you rarely drives in the limit. You need to save tires and fuel, so you will be constant, not fast.

Second, there is a reason why Scawen is doing new tire physics... The overheating problem is not new, Scawen found it and is working on new tire physics to fix that problem...

Third, the overheating problem is not so big when you can control the car... If you are a bad driver, you will overheat tires and lose control quickly, but you practice, you will handle the temperature and car easily and naturally...

"Looking at the TV and the times, everyone is going to struggle with tyres in the race. It seems everyone is overheating tyres after only three laps."

Found some offering what you want on LFSW (see pics). I don't know whether that's useful.

Quote from SennaSS :

Its the HEAT side of it that should not be in place its patheticly unrealistic ... tyres are not made from BUBBLE GUM

its so poor it not even funny!

I have a friend who got lfs he is a real formula 2 champion himself try out Lfs and he couldnt believe how poor its tyre heat physics were.

Its very poor and im just pointing it out froma real racing drivers point of view.. if you push to the limit you get red hot tyres within laps! which isnt the idea of a sim its meant to be realistic isnt it!?!

Got any replays? It'd be at least interesting see how he attacks the game

Power tools :-)

because I take about 5 minutes to get going then crash

Really cool vid.

Didn't think I'd ever say that about something with Enya in

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :

Yeah we should all be loving lfs like ppl loved kim jong il in north korea. Epic guy btw.

Rest in peace

He would have done a better job of governing the country if he hadn't have sat around faffing around with virtual tyre physics all the time? :doh:

I see.... quite a few people upset because they haven't had a new imaginary car to drive round an imaginary road for a while. /first world problems.

Quote from Yuri Laszlo :

Why does Scawen speak in the third person?

It's signed "LFS Developers" as in the statement is from all of them not an individual. That's why it's written like that.

This is a good point. It happens with other games though. The developers stopped adding new colour balls to Snooker and everyone lost interest and stopped playing.

As a separate question, the demo races are never more than 3 or 4 laps long. Is that also a restriction?

Well, I was mainly saying it as a means to the end of stopping corner cutting. That said, I guess you have a point. People who enjoy autocross could be thrown a bone demowise too. Maybe just the option to load layouts rather than edit them.

haha, I didn't know that. I guess that's part 2 of my suggestion then.

There's too much speed advantage with cutting those corners IMHO.

Gonzihere, I get where you are coming from. It is fun to have a close race with someone on a par with your own skill. That said, from what I can see (correct me if I'm wrong) is that you want to handicap people that come on lots and can do well because you're a casual gamer. Which, I think will go down like a cup of cold sick. All those people at one point did times that you do but worked on it.

I'm pretty sure people are still signing up to other long term games like World Of Warcraft etc, despite people already being there for some years and having the advantage of experience, epic level mages or whatever it is they have. You also need to be sure that getting good in the "Boring hatchback" enables you to be better when you get onto other cars.

Personally, I go in the Cargame.nl S1 room at the moment because it is multiclass, uses an experience rating system where you can work your way into having other cars. Also has other tracks apart from Blackwood and also layouts/modifications that aren't on the default single player. (especially with Fern Bay)

hahaa they're ace
