New News from DBP!!

Please welcome our newest member, Serpentine to the Driven By Passion Team.

Welcome Serpentine.

Serpy has to be the Cleanest, most Gentlemanly racer I've ever had the pleasure of racing within Live For Speed. Im so very glad he's now at Driven By Passion, as his style of driving complements DBP's on track attitude. Plus he is a bugger to pass. I have some great memories of Racing Serpentine pre-CRC days, and all I ever remember was that it was great racing.

Current lineup:

[DBP] Gael
[DBP] Koabi
[DBP] Leprekaun
[DBP] Serpentine
[DBP] Skinny
[DBP] Sly_Guy
[DBP] Stoney

Welcome to Driven By Passion. Still Accepting Entries.

Quote from Hotrodx199 :I think that LFS Team should add a free 15 day trial of S2 so the demo players have an idea what S2 is like, with out this idea say example a player wants to buy S2. Then when he buys it he Gets bored with it in 2 days, now thats a wasted 48$ ^_^ so what do u think? should LFS team add this or no? I say YES on this one

Well no cos someone who is serious about a serious online racing simulator isnt likely to get bored of something as good as lfs in 2 days. If they are looking for "easy fun" as apposed to simulation, id suggest not buying LFS.

/me tells me off, me is stopping posting from new year!

A project I was working on a while back required me to create something where teams could advertise available positions, and where players could post about their availability.

Is that the kinda thing you guys was thinking, and is it worth me digging it out?

Quote from Chris P :It's a cruising server. The idea is to just drive! Have a bit of fun with people... and have you actually been on the server? You can't just pick a car. Yes, it says all are available, but only if you own them.

If you read my above post, you will see that yes I have actually been on the server. Where I was swore at, called an idiot and told I was stupid. Which is all stuff I know already, I dont need 8 Pr*cks telling me that on a server.

Then there is a problem somewhere, my first time on the server I thought hmm Ill pick the uf1, logical choice for the car being available to me. Then I thought, nah, pick a better one, went to the car selection screen and chose every car I wanted to drive. All worked, just like they would in any other server.

Quote from Chris P :Well. The bad language is something we all do not want to see. Obviously if someone crashes we don't mind a "bollocks, damn barriers". That's simple human nature, but I personally find myself quite strict when it comes to insulting people. The other problem is that us admins can't be on there 24/7.
However, I did see Redline Racing had an anti-bad-language thing running which we could consider!

Consider people in different timezones. Have admins in different timezones, to cover your server 24/7 or whenever possible. When people can just run amock its like finding the carpark on a demo server and going mental.

Quote : About not knowing how to earn money... seriously, I've said it before, but read the first line on the website under money. It's right there!

You start off with €4.000,-. In order to gain money you just have to drive around.

YAY so much fun, i get to drive around a server, and it earns me virtual fake money.. WHY? I mean whats the point of earning cash? To buy cars.. Which you can select from the car selection screen anyway.. For example, a little more detail there on that page wouldnt go amiss for the stupid.

Quote : I find it quite amusing how people come up with these good ideas, but we've thought of most of them already. Also reversing the money so you earn more by cruising. I intend to discuss that again with CLC.

Im glad I have a purpose in life and im glad its to amuse you! It took me the best part of a year to shut up and realise that listening to peoples ideas is the best way to make things better. But Ill let you find that out yourself.

Quote : - And about who has authority... it says that on the first page of the website - CLC admins only. Of course, the police have some authority, but can't kick/ban people.

Only thing it says on the first page of the website is "local police force". That really doesnt tell me anything other that those who are cops are incharge. What about when there are no cops? How does one become a cop? When there are no admins, who is there to see the cops dont take power to their head?

Anyway, glad you found the time to reply. What I posted was only my opinion, which was asked for my RAYFighter.

Quote from RAYfighter :Hey there Stoney!

I would love to hear your original expectations when you were going to try the gameplay. And also some more details about what you didn't like in particular.

Hey Rayfighter

Im not sure what exactly I expected, There is a lot of information on the server and about the server, but not much that tells idiots (me) what exactly to do..

There is a lot of text on the server. I know lapper produces a lot of output, but there is so much that even with H pressed, it scrolls on way too fast for me to get most of it.

And the language used on there.. F*** this F*** that and you get the point, is there really any need for it? Then when you ask someone for help, all you get is F*** off and "idiot" shouted at you. Then when you make a mistake and do something wrong, its more of the same.

Im not sure what its suppost to be Ray.. I mean there is classic CnR where robbers are in one skin and cops in another, and it takes three hits on an open track to be caught..

Then there is these citylife servers.. I guess having a go at simulating real life roads with real life road rules.. Then there is you project.. Im just not sure where to place it.

Its obviously not racing. I didnt expect racing. But Ive been hearing a lot about it, and I thought last night before bed, (well late in the morning) Id jump on it (Expecting it to be empty) so i could roam around and try and work out what to do in piece without embarrisment of "idiotspeak", of course the server was busy, I got the "idiotspeak" and a whole lot more. Perhaps its fun with people you know? Perhaps its fun when there are people there to help and show you what to do...

Quote : To be honest I don't care too much about kids who comes and ask "So how do I make more money" since the best answer would be "join any other server with all cars allowed and no Shift+S/Reset penalties and have fun wrecking them" perhaps.

Im not really interested in gaining virtual money.. Can someone explain the point? This is how I understand it at the moment: Earn money to buy cars.. How does one earn money.. Something about a bank and the lottery.. How does one know who is in a position of authority on server? And why are all the cars instantly available? Is there any way to make it so when you type "!help" every 5 minutes private so that only you see your cries for help?

Hope thats given you and incite into my mind Ray at this time. Perhaps I just need some training?

I bought LFS to simulate racing. Its fun to have other things to do, I just im afraid, dont fully understand this one.

The bad language is a barrier for me.

Wish you the best of luck tho! And share others calls for it to be a 3rd party mod for others to host too.

Tried it, meh dont like it. Honestly I dont see the point.. If I wanted to drive around, treated like an idiot and swore at, id go out for a walk in my home city. Each to their own and all that, it seems like a great mod, but just not what I paid to drive.

Good Luck!!

Quote from askoff :There are lot of differences in FO8 and BF1 engine. Just because the amount of cylinders are the same, doesn't mean that they produce same kind of sound.

Maybe not, but the BF1 is still a long way off. FOX is getting better, get rid of the wine there and it would be perfect (well at least back to U30 perfection).
