I hope you'll get your mind straight and get the solution for all LFS (and other :razz problems.

Other problems? Like world peace you mean?

Personally speaking an update wasn't needed but it is good to get one I am sure alot of the people who said they are leaving or will eave is just empty threats, when the email notification goes out they will be back lol. Keep working on it Scavier, we will be here when it is done.

On a funny note with the email notification: I was on my pc the other night and up popped an msn notification to say I had an email off LFS. I got so excited, turns out it was a PM lol.

Dear Xbox users,

Find all the bugs in the DLC that is coming to XBL March 30, so IW will have them fixed by the time it is released on PSN at the end of April.

Kind Regards,

PS3 user.

Weird that xbox are getting the maps a month before ps3. Not that I care really as I am on xbox lol. Good to have some new maps, hopefully they will be decent maps.

Quote from keiran :

If you could that would be awesome!

You have a PM

I know what happened last time with RU invites and before anyone asks: I don't have anymore to give out.

There could be many things but the obvoius one for me would be that they got more information regarding the physics of the scirocco.

I watch dave now but in the past I have downloaded them via torrent from racing underground Just checked and they still have the daily ones up. It is invite only though, so just let me know if you want an invite

Quote from DavidTiger :

Free-For-All but I find them too hard now

I switched from hardcore TDM to free for all last night, took a couple of games getting used to it taking longer to kill people. Got there in the end though, best game of the night was a 25-5. Was a shame though, picked up my emergency air drop crates (harrier strike, 2 predator missles and uav) and the game ran out of time

Quote from DieKolkrabe :

Favela

Hide, lob a nade at the flag capturers, boom

Is it my imagination or does having more people speed up the flag capturing?

I lobbed a nade on scrapyard at the middle flag, 4 kills in 1 = instant care package

I am sure I have noticed this too so I think it does. If not always good to have two people

I would like to come but depends on finance and transport, so mark me as a maybe

Quote from franky500 :

local company near me does this, they are actually really good aswell.

http://www.directboot.co.uk/

Thanks, though it seems to be more embroided company logo's that printing slogans across a t shirt.

Quote from ACCAkut :

Shirtinator lets you do it, but its site is only available in german.

Well I found I can print on the front and back of that which is the first site I have found that does it. It might be time for me to brush up on my german.

I looked at cafe press before, but I can't see how to get text on the back of a t shirt It may just be I am being stupid though lol. Might have to give up on getting the text front and back.

Hi

Wondering if anyone here can help me. I am looking for a company or website that can print up custom t shirts that is preferably within the UK (or doesn’t charge a lot for shipping.) I have found a couple but none do quiet what I need. I am looking for some t shirts that are printed front and back and getting some of my own images printed up but all the sites I have found only do one side or don’t do custom images.

Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.

Greboth.

Quote from wien :

Aren't you people always saying that because of the lack of updates people are leaving LFS? Wouldn't that mean that by necessity the players keeping the stats up are new ones?

Or are you just bending facts the way you want to justify a good cry?

As has been said many time; there lies, damn lies and statistics.

From my personal point of view though alot of the people I used to race against regularly just don't play lfs anymore. A few are interesting but there are a few who just don't care anymore. There are a fair few people like me who keep an eye on here but really don't play now. So drawing from this it would seem that it is new people palying. However a small sample doesn't prove the rule.

Quote from brandons48 :

K/D ratio only matters if you're sad.

Just play the goddamn game

No it is only sad if you worry about it, compare it to other people and make judgement on people for it. I do find it is an interesting statistic though for me personally.

If you enjoy it then enjoy it, but it is going well if K>D

Quote from el pibe :

Please, Don't even think about it....

About the only good thing you can say about them is that he wont give up getting into Formula 1. Though I think it is getting stupid now, there is only so long you can flog a dead horse.

Here is one of mine, about the only one I can find a scanned copy of. I will see if I can find anymore though.

It is the same with alot of things though, decimalisation was supposed to make things easier due to the points you raised with the maths but it just failed. You buy petrol in litres, but your beer in pints. We use miles not km. Ask 99% of people how tall they are and they will tell you in feet and inches, or how heavy and it will be in stones/pounds not metres or Kg. Strange but true lol.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Still, I think racism, nationalism and sexism should not be tolerated, even in slightest forms.

Well there goes my joke about a blackman, an irishman and a woman

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Well, while I agree that the skin colour is a quick way to describe a person, mocking his speed of work in connection with his skin colour DOES sound racist.
Now it doesn't matter if it's factually true, because the person you talked to doesn't know this. Thus to him you're sounding like the average "OMG TEH N!GG4RZ IZ LAZYYY!!11!!" zero-braincell-white-supremacy-ranter.
So I personally don't think the guy was overly sensitive, and I actually do think it's a great show of moral courage. Only that in this case, the reaction was a cause of a misunderstanding and not enough info.
Still, I think racism, nationalism and sexism should not be tolerated, even in slightest forms.

I can see where you are coming from but, for me personally, if someone had said that to me I wouldn't of thought it was racist. Maybe it was a misunderstanding and if it was then it was, but dan's boss should of questioned what happened and I would hope have to sense to see it was a misunderstanding not racism.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Also, is ginger really a racist term? I thought it rather described the hair colour, like blond or brunette... :P

It is racist against the Scots

Quote from DarkTimes :

It's because you referred to him as being black when the colour of his skin had no relevance to the conversation. You should have just said "yes, last week", instead of "a black guy did it last week". The fact the man was black is completely irrelevant, so why even bring it up?

I am making some assumptions here as I don't know much about forklifts, but I would assume that the fuel gauge light wire is not just attached it would be soldered or held down with a nut. Now while this could of come loose in the week since the service, it could of also been down the shoddy service. If this is indeed the case then whoever did the service is relevant. If there is one white who does it and one black guy (and you don't know their names) what is wrong with that. If you don't know their names you have to describe then and their skin colour is the biggest difference. Just because someone is black and you call them black doesn't mean it is racism, it is a simple statement of fact.

I am with you on this one dan.

Is it a fact he is slower than the other guy: yes.
Is it a fact he is black: yes - not racism.
Therefore it is fact the black guy is slower so nothing wrong with.

Hmmm I don’t see how people can complain about noob tubers, not like you can’t do it back to them. Though I agree it is annoying to be randomly killed like that from across the map, especially playing hardcore TDM as they only need to get it near you to kill. Noob tubing does have its times though, like clearout out the underground base thing on wasteland. I do hate the lag at time though, playing ground war last night playing death match on quarry with sniper and shotgun and I was top with 24 K – 3 D and got timed out though my friend was in that game and rejoined to finish a lowly 3 K – 1 D

Hardcore team death match ftw though

Quote from Bmxtwins :

Xbox live ftw
Add me gt is same as LFS....

/hides from PS3 users

I might add you later My GT is same too.

Quote from gtpsharky :

Ew, 360 user... let's lynch him!

I'm pretty useless at MW2, my KDR is 0.64; first prestige level 36 or something. :/

YEAH! 360 users suck . . . . . oh wait, I have a 360. PS3's suck! I guess you are ps3, otherwise I would say add my gt lol.

When I first had it mine was down at something riduclous like 0.2 (im not fps really) but worked at it and it is upto about 1.2. Though prestiging ruins it slightly as i like my custom classes too much lol.

Quote from Dac :

Why? People have paid for LFS and are dedicated to seeing it prosper. People are complaining because they were promised updates that have not materialised in over a year. They have a right to complain this is a public forum where people are supposed to publicise their views (within reason) openly. If you don't like hearing peoples opinions then you go and do something else. Simple.

Just because some people aren't complaining about development speed doesn't mean we are any less dedicated to seeing it prosper. In fact you could say we are more dedicated as we are happy to wait for lfs to develop to the best that is able to. As previously said though, nothing was promised! Yes posts and announcement were made that the patch was planned to be released, but it was exactly that a plan. Breaking news, plans don't always go to plan. Yes everyone has the right to their views and it can be posted that people think the development speed is slow and I am included in that. What people can't do it say they have a right to have the update. Everyone has to buy everything as it at the time. Now you could buy lfs with the hope that it will be updated and maybe that hope will get rewarded but there is nothing to say that there will be an update.

Quote from danowat :

Personally, you should be happy that you'll get it at all as a free update, rather than complaining that its not here yet.
I am personally disheartened with the development with LFS, which is why I haven't driven it in months, BUT, I got WAY more out of it than I paid for, both in terms of free addons and improvments and pure "wheel time".
I just get a bit peeved when people pull the "we paid so we should get" card.
Race what you've got, or play something else, its that simple, the core of the game stays the same.

This, exactly how I feel. I know when the patch comes out I will more then likely race again but for now I am content to wait.

A good example is any console game, say modern warfare 2. You buy the game play it for a while, you come to hope that their will be new online maps. It is announced that they plan to release some maps, but if they don't you can't complain as you bought the game as is and you still have that.

I might just be repeating what other people have said, but:

Learn to drive: Yes I believe you can. If you have a wheel with 3 pedals and h shifter, then I believe it could teach the physical control of a car e.g. Clutch down to change gear, clutch down when braking so you don't stall and even to an extent getting the car moving etc.

Learn to drive safely and on public roads: No, Definately not. For driving on the road, as said before, it is so much more than just moving the car around which racing sims can't provide.

Due to one thing or another I seemed to miss the first half of all the games. I, like others I am guessing, presumed the Ireland were the ones to beat. Watching the Ireland game, I think that their chances are still high of winning sex nations (and maybe the grand slam too.) England were the surprise for me though, going on past performance, I expected a worse game. Whether the worse was loosing, dropping passes, loosing line outs etc but I was surprised. The game had its faults but I am hopeful that we can at least have a chance this year.

After the first games, I would say the order of favourites to win are – Ireland, England, Wales, Italy, France, Scotland.
