I misread this as "I remember him fighting tooth and nail with a dildo for this voucher"
Much funnier.
Me either. You could possibly add talent my list of things I don't have, but it's mostly time. It might be once a month where I could dedicate a couple of hours and have a decent session. Otherwise, it's the odd 30 minutes here or there, which amounts to a quick couple of races against the AI. So, I'm glad they're improving it.
People can lose perspective when they hang around forums, where like many minded people congregate. They assume everybody is the same; can invest dozens of hours every week and play on-line all night most nights. The fact is, that it's only a small minority of people who actually do this.
One thing I don't get with AC is the ambient sounds.
Why on earth did the devs think it was realistic to be able hear the crowd cheer and blow their trumpets, as you pass by them in your ear bleedingly noisy racing car with your helmet on?
LFS does the same thing too, with a polite round of applause as you take the chequered flag.
Why?
What a fantastic event. Awesome cars. Gripping race. That's it, I'm going next year.
Perfect, thanks. A firmware and driver update did it.
I have a V2 wheel by the way.
And congrats on the app.
Hi Bose321.
Firstly, thanks a lot for the program. I recently bought a Fanatec GT3 wheel, and love it.
The only issue is that I get these big FFB jolts when it's running in AC or LFS.
Is there any way to stop it from affecting FFB?
Cheers.

Outdated how? By that, you're inferring that this forum once was a prison, and that people could not leave when they wanted.
seniecka, its a computer game that you're ranting and raving about.
Find some perspective!
Find some perspective!
My umpteenth clean install of LFS, and one of the first things is always to download this set-up pack. 
This isn't a prison. You can leave any time you like (preferably right now).
Fair point, although that factor will diminish over time I guess.
Also, agree with TVE's point about AC being in early development. There's nothing like new content and features being released every few weeks to keep people interested.
Really hope that Scawen gets a major release in before AC multilayer though. It would be really interesting to see how it turns out.
My thoughts are that LFS has been kept alive over the last 6 years, mainly by a lack of competition. Other sims have come and gone, but none have been able to match LFS in 3 key areas; physics, multiplayer and value. Sure, numbers have dwindled significantly, but many people are still keeping a close eye out for updates as, although they may be bored with the content, there is still nothing out there that's better.
For the first time, it has a true competitor. The very promising Assetto Corsa has (I think) covered physics and value very well, but it has no multiplayer. The AC multiplayer release might seal the fate of LFS. If it is released before the next major update to LFS and is good, then it might be the end. If Scawen can get the update out first, or AC multiplayer sucks, then who knows.
My thoughts only, of course. ☺

It's an interesting point. Hopefully it's just related to the way it handles collisions rather than the AI having different physics. The latter is just cheating!
I'm kinda the same. Not much interest in setups therefore limited in knowledge. I'm happy just to enjoy driving (preferably in a car that doesn't need a lot of setting up). Either way I understand that I'll probably be slower than someone who puts in the hard work. Again, just like real life.
Completely agree with this. Sims should always align with reality, and this is reality plain and simple.
Agree. It's wierd seeing 2 pairs of arms and 2 wheels in your peripheral vision.
I wish you could remove the wheel altogether. Hopefully the cockpit view will be completely customisable eventually ala LFS.
More people race against AI than you might think.
I get maybe a couple of hours a week at best, and that will usually be in short sessions of 30 minutes or so. There's no way I can be competitive online.
AI or just simply doing a few laps is where I get my enjoyment.
Nothing to do with being an arcade racer
That looks pretty good to me.
I got that in the Black Friday sale. Recently got the floppy disk in the disk drive, which was easily the greatest moment of my gaming life.
Yeah, site's dead.
I will wait a few hours for all you Euros to go to bed, and I might have more luck.

Would love to be wrestling with the F40 right now, but I fear for my hardware in this heat. It's almost 10pm too...
I'd be more than happy with some half decent AI to race against.
Can't get enough playing time to be competitive at MP.
I'm glad someone mentioned Bathurst.
