There's no point in buying S1 now anyway. Sure you will have some extra cars and tracks, but I assume you want to race online with LFS. There aren't many S1 servers left and there's hardly anyone in them.

As for the stages, S3 is considered the final stage. What will happen after that is something even the devs aren't sure about afaik. Let's just wait till S2 becomes final first allright?

yep.. at the very beginning they were thinking 4 stages, but at this rate, there is no purpose in making a 4th stage

i still dont get your logic tritoch, do you just have no money and trying to come up with a reason to not buy the game or what? because the price will never change, 12 pounds a stage, 3 stages, and its going to stay that way

first off, i dowlnoaded this yesterday and started yesterday. secondly, I didn't know there will only be 3 stages, and thirdly, I don't even have a steering wheel yet. I use my joystick with 3 sensitivities. [left, centre, and right]

so, im not sure if its worth getting before the steering wheel.

Sure it is
For sure, for best experience I would advice to use a wheel. When do you think you'll get a wheel? Untill then you could use the stick and learn the tracks. There are people using keyboard/mouse to play. Some are even fast with it

well, now that you know the story i would focus on practicing to see if you like it. any simulation like LFS can be a little difficult at first, particularly if you dont have the best controller setup.

your joystick has 3 sensitivities? is it not analogue? you should have smooth steering at least with that, and use KB buttons for throttle. its not ideal, but it is a good start in learning the game.

have fun and i hope you will enjoy it enough to join us on the S2 servers.

thats quite alright, most of the fastest people in lfs use the keyboard lol

even though you ignored the posts telling you so!

Most?

But most or even all of the slowest use the kb, too.

it's like the circle of life.
You start small, to learn living. (as a baby, discovering the world)
You end small, living your life-evening... (as old man, with one or the other disease)

analogue to the controllers...

One thing i learnt frtom this tread is.

12+12+12=36

Damn i did not know that. thanks

Lol, haven't you learned maths in school?

anyway i would pay 100 pounds today if scawen would promise me s3 (or a sound patch with phaaat car sounds and muffler plops) will be out until xmas THIS year.
