Hmm.. I just flew around Aston to match some of the screenshots, and I came across this (See attachment) alongside the GP/Historic back-straight. I'm sure this has been brought up before somewhere, but I've never seen it. What is that piece of track? Seems to be a fair amount of it too... Is this going to be part of the new config perhaps?

Btw, yea i think the lamps are there just to increase the sense of speed. A change like dynamic night and day isn't a easy programming job considering that they probably spent most of their time perfecting the tyre physics. Unless the devs weren't on a break for the past couple of months after the S2 release and were working their a$$ of to bring us this surprise? A change in tyre physics is a surprise already in its self.
Great job.
Thanks

A made a compare Lowest pressure, with 3 passenger.
The tire doesn't want to get off from the rim

I can't wait to try the update

Fly a bit closer to the scene so that we can see something :P

whooooaaa: got a new desktop!!!

this is such a great picture... i never saw tyre physics like that in a game ever. can´t wait to test the new handling.
car behaviour is loking great on the screens. but a small video teaser would also be very nice...


peace mo

Heh.. Here's one looking the other way. (Damn that vegetation!)

Its just the Historic/GP part that are going back home to the pits.

damn that vegetation does look a bit sexy.

D'oh! Yes, I see it now. What was I thinking? These tease updates are just not good for my brain! I'm seeing things everywhere...

it seems like the FXR got some new tires, compared to the first screens

hm TORRO Falcon R2 could be the text

Quote from molocco :

Yeah. Don should do the teaser video. Slomo goodness

since there changing the tire physics... maybe they changed the tire pops? Like for example: sometimes the tire deflates slowly or it pops and stays on rim(like it does now) or sometimes it blows off completely and your driving on the rim, throwing sparks at your buddy as he says"Ah! My leaky gas tank!!"(maybe future damage update)

*wishfully thinking*

That sure looks like "Torro" to me, not "Turbo".

But I could be wrong.

Quote from faster111 :

You never know this update mite be a big one so it mite take longer but who knows we dont only the devs do.

we know full well what is coming (well, most of it!) as do you, after reading the main page! Victor told us about the patch and its contents a good while ago

Quote from faster111 :

wonder if these updates are for demo racers to one update i canrt wait for is bits falling of cars ect

well, why would the tyre physics not affect the demo cars?

Quote from faster111 :

i bet there not going be any updates for demo racers its like runescape if you want more stuff you be meber and you got to pay sigh and on it free palyers dont get updates hope lfs not going be like that. oh well i mite get s2 for this demo event oh well i just have to wait.

oh god, you dont play runescape do you? and the reason that free players dont get as much content is to encourage you to support the devs!

Quote from evans :

The big question now is, do they tyres "deform" too much?

no they dont.
1) they are normal road tyres, not racing.
2) they are lowpressure on purpose to show the flexing (notice the 4 dudes to make weight).

shouldn't passengers lean/bob too?

Quote from Breizh :

shouldn't passengers lean/bob too?

yes, and they should have complex emotions.
like when one leans too much into another they should get angry at each other or start a new relationship.

hahahahaha

Yep, if you go in the LX6 hitting 230 at the oval your passenger would be like 'Dude, you really think it's safe going at this speed?' 'Please slow down a bit, or let me get down so I can puke or something!!'

Right! When I have 3 girls in my car the don't just sit there! They should be all over me, that realism.

lol, kid.

Maybe on the Kidcodea passengers...

Not really;

I think passengeres should ragdoll inside the cabin after an exceptionally harsh accident. Then if you are in a soft top, the driver and passengers would get tossed out only to be run over by oncoming racers. Oh and with the ragdoll patch should come blood and dismemberment as well!! Oh the torture that would ensue!
