Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

Because lfs is mostly a racing simulator with the possibility for other creative way of entertainment. Not a cruise simulator. That's why you will never sell any licences to drivings schools of any kind

Ok, agree with you, but when i tried it at my cousin house with s2 and gt force, i really enjoyed it, and with an uf1000 you can drive slowly and clean.

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

There is a reason why they have their own software. LFS will never simulate cars and traffic situations, which they need. "just a new version of south city" doesn't work.

Why not, in multiplayer, or maybe working on AI (but AI is stupid )

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

as said, it's already possible with insims. In driving schools they already have their own software and hardware. There are enough driving simulators out there.

But, lfs can be a racing simulator with a Single City which can be also used for cruise/driving school.
Lfs cars have already lights, arrows, so they need just a new version of south city.

What About License SC, a license which gives only street legal cars and South City track, for driving schools.

Edit:
Reversed Version of South City , could be with signals for Left drive.

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

Scawen, why remove my comment, it was a normal comment saying that this is a racing sim not a cruise sim. Is it not true, that you deleted it or is it something else that makes you delete it?

Why not?
imagine a version of South City without barriers, and working trafic lights.
It can be used also as sim in Driving schools, with the right Hardware.

The only big problem for a lot of people is the Right-Driving roads

P.s

Quote :

can you spoiler us something about new cars/tracks?

About South City, we know that will be made a big city with open config.

Ok, maybe i'm stressing you, but, can you spoiler us something about new cars/tracks?

Quote from Scawen :

I know this is often requested and we have a really large autocross area in one of the new tracks that we plan to release with the S3 license. We think it's better to leave that for S3 licensed users. We do want to release some S3 licensed content as soon as possible, though this will take quite some time (several months - "several" not being an actual specified number) after the Westhill update.

"several" = 48 Months?

Scawen What About License of Scirocco and Rockingham?
There is actually some problem?

Quote from Racon :

I would happily drive a Maxda MZ5 or a Lancios Stratia

Stratos maybe

Imho, no more licensed cars, only the Scirocco

It would be nice to see blackwood parks "connected"
For example, from the Paddock you can go to car park.

Quote from Flotch :

FZ5 = Porsche 996 = RR layout

Putting the engine in Front is like a Panamera or a Cayenne : not really Porsche

So you say: FZ Brand will be a Porsche, maybe the FZ6 can be an fz5, with rear engine, 3.6L but turbocharged?

Ok, this is not a problem, just change the name

Quote from 5tag :

You may want to look up technical specifications of a 2002 996 Carrera to find out, how unique of a design the FZ5 really is. This is one of the reasons why your envisioned FZ6 would in no way work out.

I don't understood the last point.

Quote from Racon :

Something with widely-acclaimed handling, something that every driver talks up. Off the top of my head, the Mazda MX5 or Lotus Elise/Exige. What better to test the new tyres with?

+1 to the LMPs, American muscle cars and off-road buggys

A rally legend or two? Escort MkII? Audi Quattro? Lancia Delta or Stratos?

Imho, in lfs licensed cars are used only for promotional campaigns (the bmw for example).

The will add something inspired and unique, like fz5 or xfg

In my opinion, a group B car must be an old car.

Maybe an RB4 GTR style...

Quote from Flotch :

Currently, I would vote for these :

- a modern turbo AWD beast (600hp)
- anyone has heard about group B specs for rally ? => there are plenty of nice examples to make crazy nice specs for cars in LFS

Modern turbo 4wd, watch my post(fz6, seems like a Nissan GT-R)

A group B car would be nice, i'm Italian, so i like Delta S4 or 037, but also 205 t16, Renault R5 turbo, but, i don't think they will add that on lfs, would be nice have a rally track, like mountain streets.

I've posted the xmg, car designed by an lfs player times ago, yes, it would be nice to find also a 2.0 turbocharged version for B group, 500 bhp, feather weight and wide bodykit.

Quote from Scawen :

It would be nice to update South City at some point. With my anaglyph glasses on I was looking around the other day, enjoying the sense of scale and, apart from that unfinished road you are talking about, there are various back streets that could be linked up to make a nice open config. I'm sure Eric would enjoy doing that at some point. I think what is more important now is to get a couple of new tracks out that you will need an S3 license to use, because you need more tracks and we could do with the cash!

Cruiser's paradise

Good job, lfs is still alive

Old V8 Supercar like De Tomaso Pantera GTS

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

what are you doing? charity work?

Something like that.

In my opinion is better no give announcements, just release and stop, because players want things now

Quote from cargame.nl :

Yeah give something for free after years of work that will cover the bills hmm? Stop thinking selfish, get your ass of the chair work for a wheel and a license.

Maybe i've already done it, but, i can't eat the s2 license or the wheel...

Ok, add this damned Scirocco to s2, but, do it, just release 1 new car and the new westhill will take back more people and take here more new people imho

ok, i understood it, but, it was the 2011, 3 years ago, maybe they changed their minds

Quote from lebrao88 :

I believe that both the Sirocco and the track of Rockingham need license.

Correct me if I'm wrong : Ouro:

Idk, i hope Scawen can say us if it's the truth

Quote from Kristi :

Well, LFS "demo" already offers more than it should at this point. Nowadays, it doesn't even encourage players to move on into S2, but why would anyone? Sometimes I just fire up LFS, load the server list to find out I have nowhere to connect.

I dont buy s2 because i will do it only when i have a wheel, after i tried lfs s2 with the gt force, i hate this keyboard.
Scirocco is fwd, so is easy to drive, and it was announced in 2009, so, if there aren't license problems, i hope to see it as 4th demo car

Westhill is very very nice, i hope to try it early at my cousin house, he has s2+ steering wheel, i'll not buy s2 or s3 without the wheel.

Imho another content they have, but they won't release is the Scirocco, Sirs, release that car (maybe in demo version, we need a 4th demo car ) with the westhill update, and a lot of new players will come to lfs.

Or about the Scirocco there are some problems for license with VW?

So, just release that car if is ready to be added to lfs, in the westhill patch, it will be a great strategy.

Add just a few contents early, keep this fantastic sim alive

Quote from UnknownMaster21 :

As expected.


This was the actual video which inspired me to play LFS all day. I am pretty sure you should go to R, with S and to show the new P of four round T, to make an exclusive inspiration about whole new level of ...

Anyway, I go again elsewhere --->

Yes, watching this video i seen how the fbm in lfs is very very near to the real fbm.

Please Scawen, dont let die this game/sim, we like it, but we want some new stuff every 3 months...

I joined lfs in 2009, too young to remember that video :P

Scawen, when we will see something new in LFS?
Yes, maybe this is a boring question which you hear everyday, but, the Sim Seems dead, we want some new cars(remember us demo players...) and tracks.

Maybe LFS is too old, and other sims like AC are "graphycally better" than LFS, but i really like this game, fictional cars and fictional tracks are really good made.

Sorry for my maccaroni english
