Quote from BlackSheep720 :Victor said in his interview that

"At the moment I'm into another amazing game, it's a simulation game that lets me control a racing sim community..."

What game do you think he's talking about?

Edit: I forgot the word community. But I still can't get it lol.

Thanks for now making us North Americans look like twits. or uh, twts, really.

Quote from Boris Lozac :I didn't mean to offend you or anything, and you have better computer than i do anyway
It sounded like you don't wan't LFS to progress graphically, or in number of players on server, because many people can't handle it..
That means we should never get parts falling off, glass getting broken, better sounds, more detailed car models, detailed cockpits, etc??
People have to upgrade their computers SOME DAY, you can't expect that you can play 2007 PC game with Pentium 2, now, can you?
I haven't updated my PC in 3 years now, used to do it all the time for stupid FPS games, which bore me after a week...

No offense taken! 28 players is good, 32 is better, and if anything, more entertaining in T1, but if there is a jump from 28 to 32 players in a short time, it may be too much graphically for alot (but not all!) players. I am all for improvements as you mentioned, but it just seems not like something Scawen or Scavier in general would do. W17 seems to me, to be a "throw it into the water and see if it floats" kind of patch.

If I am wrong, may I dine on crow.

Quote from Boris Lozac :I don't think that would be the case (i hope not)..
I mean, i understand that some of you have really low end PC's, but the development can't be held back because of you guys
As someone already said, no one is forcing you to go to 32 players server..
You could really shell out for a new graphics card at least..

You tell me. By the way, my card is a Radeon 9600.


Edit: and I dont give two stone if I can handle 32 cars...I know I can, but how about a large group of people who DONT read this forum? IIRC, Live For Speed's finest point is that you dont need a gamer computer to play.

I am going to make a prediction; I predict that the final, compatible patch will allow 24-28 cars on the grid, not 32. I am in the belief that Scawen would like feedback to see just how far this game can be pushed, then scale it back to a level for people with normal computers can use.

It seems logical and, I dunno, Scawenish.

I laughed for a while when he responded about a game he likes rather than LFS:

Live For Speed is so good that my wife hasn't divorced me or hit me over the head with a frying pan for playing it. Honest! She can see that the game is a challenge to me, not fluff. That game play is easy to walk away from, you merely pit or spectate. Plus she likes that a woman (Becky Rose) is very involved in the game, and she really likes to watch the STCC broadcasts!

Socks. If I wear shoes, the DFP pedals are hard to read, feel wise.

Quote from SLIDE WAYZ :i no how u feel, i love my rwd mid engine steer from the rear is all i got to say

Not quite in the same league, but I once owned a 1984 Pontiac Fiero, a mid engined car. It was different, to say the least! I learned quickly where it's "point of no return" was.

Quote from Jakg :i want a little Frog-Eyed Sprite as my first car, and if it ends up being a crappy 80's Polo then so be it, i'll just "rice" it with cardboard-fibre

A Sprite would very cool, alot of character. But I would think, after watching your LFS exploit you would be aiming for a 7-8 year old Astra...

Quote from sgt.flippy :Not everyone has the money to buy that car. And besides, I'd drive a honda too if I had the chance. A crx del sol, a hond isn't a chav car, the driver makes it so. Or the morons calling everyone in a particular car a chav just because they know how the car is named.

I have no problem with Hondas, it is just that in my experiences, the 16-24 year old males whom acquire 1992-2000 Civics seem to think that slamming it to the ground, putting a fart can on it and a body kit will magically make them faster. Flippy, I have seen this over and over and over and over again. It is to me, taking the easy way out. So my original point was, if the person in question was to acquire this Civic, I implore him to not go the STEREOTYPICAL ROUTE and not do what I mentioned above. Those 92-00 Civics have a almost silly anmount of potential too few have learned to exploit. I mean, just look at the front suspension on them! Amazing!

And I know what it is like to want a car BADLY and not get it, or not be able to afford it. It took me 5 years, 5 years of wanting and waiting desperately for a WRX, to save up a budget so I could afford to pay for it monthly.

And Flippy, I can understand your point of view; if I lived in a EU country, and had to pay the taxes you and others do just to own a vehicle, I would be hopping mad that some American could have such a flippant attitude towards a vehicle that you would consider owning.

But that is neither here nor there. I consider myself lucky, lucky that I work for a Subaru dealership, lucky that I met my wife, got married to her, and that we moved so we could both have better paying jobs, so that I was able to afford a vehicle that I lusted over for many years. Well, also faith in God to point me in the right direction so I can succeed in life, also.

I will say one thing, though. After owning this vehicle for a month, I will never go back to front wheel drive again. If anyone here owns a all wheel drive car, you know, YOU KNOW what I am talking about. It is almost...magical the way my car plants itself when it accelerates and in corners.

Quote from GruntOfAction :Owner wants $200 for it. It runs but battery is low so lol.



For the love of God, dont buy this vehicle and become a stereotype. For people who live in the UK, the Honda Civic is a "chav" car. At first, having Honda dorks "challenge" me was fun, but now it is just irritating. My car is this:

Too long grahically, but I agree it should be renamed to :roFl:, as virtually all other forums use :lol: and :roFl:

C'mon, Victor! get the lol smiley set up in the first fifteen available when a person replys to a post. Bump the " " one down the line and get a lol in!

Forum suggestion: we need a new smiley.

Looks like LFS is now 56 to 46, and even more amazing, the RSC forum didn't take 5 minutes to load! Will the wonders ever cease?!?

I like to start at the back of possible, because I can count on others smashing into each other, spinning out, etc. Just by doing that, I can usually move up to mid field. And I use my look left and right buttons constantly, and I am amazed by the antics of others when it comes to either the Fern Bay club or South City Classic chicanes. Basically on those servers, it is killed or be killed, survival of the fittest. There is no room for politeness, manners or gallantry. Do so and be dead last or unintentionally wreck.

I cannot wait to move onto Silver, though...

Crap. Wife just dropped this on me.

I have to attend a church function for my Goddaughter tomorrow; I thought it would not conflict, but it looks like now it will.

I was supposed to be the safety car...
