You know, I was once playing NFSU and I was happy, then I downloaded the LFS demo from lfs.net, and it interested me. Although I'm not a big racer(I like drifting), I bought the game and that's it. Now I hate all NFS games for being so arcadish, I play rFactor, LFS, I even tryed netCar. I'm talking about cases like me.

I know this has been suggested

So after a pretty long conversation with my friend, I decided to write this post. I was asking him why he finds dirt2 a better game than "LFS". He clearly answered: atmosphere(feeling). He was playing LFS for a while, and he was bored by the oldness of graphics. I also know that LFS is not intended to be a "screenshot generator", but come on, nobody will buy a game with no effects whatsoever. I'm taking about sparks, better shadows... well dx10 level stuff.
My point is that if Scavier wants to sell LFS to a larger group of people, not just HC simracers, it needs better atmosphere.
Now, I don't know exactly why I wrote this, and I know it won't propably change anything, but I'm just curious about the community's opinion on this.

Do you think that graphics shoud be a higher priority than physics or content?
(I'm not saying that I want it that way, just curious about your opinions)

Here's an idea.
What about Devs making a modelling contest? Like the best 1-2 or 3 cars would end up in the upcoming patch. Something like VALVe did.

Do you mean something like early 2011?

jk, I know you are good with those things :-O

Quote from Inouva :

Hint: The dog is in the left down corner.

I wonder if the Scirocco will be modeled from under...

Do you guys think this is going to change?

They propably won't. I would be happy with an another progress report. (More frequently though)
Shame that Scawen unsubscribed from this thread

I would love to see a blog with monthly(or weelky?) updates, even if theres nothing to update. It can't be worse than 5~ months without a post.

in my vision of the perfect world there was test patch released somewhere in july. Let's hope i'm a prophet.

2050

Damn give us something to speculate about

They perfectly fit the XRG

Steelies <3

Maybe they are working on stuff for S3. Maybe not.

We have no chance, but you know ... i was saying that when we were playing against italy too

Yay we won! I was shitting brix at the end tho

This could actually work for Touge courses. It would look rubbish though - this is not really for lfs...

indeed

Actually, with the current tyre model, your tires heat up while drifting very fast, like in 2 laps... I'm used to drift until they pop... (and that means soapy) It's very annoying to pit after 1-2 laps.

I wouldn't drive from cockpit anyway, unless they fix that 180° rotating wheel

Ok: I really like this phone. I would propably buy it. But what the hell will be the price if 3GS is already 700€?

This would be cool. Or just to make a contribute page like Valve has on TF2. Wouldn't that be good?
