So, will there be anything after S3. Or will we be left forever alone?

Is S3 the last update?
My understanding is that S3 is the last "development" [ as in Alpha ] cycle, in which LFS would go beta afterwards.
Thats how I have seen it to be the whole time.

S2 is in its 7th year, just think of how long S3 will be.
Timeless?
Well that's how S2 currently feels, so might even have to invent a new word.
like somthing that is bad and wrong,....BADONG!!!

I always see LFS like that good bottle of wine, you have for special occasions.
You drink and you realise the taste is still good, but nothing new is there.

No, S3 is not the last stage.
Scawen mentioned some years back that if their motivation was still up when done with S3, they would continue developing the game further.
Their aim is to simulate most aspects of motorsport (from rallycross to Nascar), and therfor the product maybe never will be complete.

Not original enough.
However you wouldn't mind the producers of that wine to enhance the flavor a bit more.
@TVE: RallyPack after S3 clearly.
thats what they keep doing
enhancing the flavor a bit every time
i'd rather they worked on the alcohol content of the wine
**** I am misserable again...
Forever Rallypack..
Forever Rallypack..
Yeah.
iRacing, rF2 and C.A.R.S are bad wines in a fancy bottle.
more like pub beer.
I started wondering about the Live for Speed S3 Minimum System Requirements when I realized how underequipped I am for rfactor2 beta.
What are the untouched qualities of LFS S2:
1) Perfect netcode for soo many cars.
2) Zero loading time for tracks and car setups..
3) Great community
4) Low hardware minimum system requirements
I understand that development also means groth in hardware demand.
I just wonder how far this will go with S3.
It would be great if developers would give as hints about that as soon as
possible...

Well Dandy.
If we take S1->S2, there wasn't much of a change, it was basically just a few colours, a bit brighter, new tracks and updated physics.
So i don't believe LFS wants to go mainstream with what we're seeing (rF2, iR etc.) and use this sort of Next Generation Graphics, nor do i see a reason for them to do so. Sure a few of the cars, needs a facelift hands down, there is still quite a lot of bugs around the older tracks and even still some on newer S2 tracks.
And you're talking about a perfect netcode? Can you difine?.
I've raced a few time in the 'Torsdagsrace' weekly event and their server only have a 7ms ping to me, and contact is something that you can do easely without going into orbit.
Even on Cargame.nl contact happens, and it's very rare that either I or someone else gets netcoded, because simply LFS has the best netcode out in the simracing world at the moment, even though strange things tend to happen.

This might just be me, but I think S1/S2 was a big step forward. The cars and tracks that were introduced were on a whole new graphical level and quality than the previous version.
See through windows, and?
Stop beeing difficoult :`(
Oh, I got one: Damage

Believing in S3 is like believing in rapture. Some people passionately believe in it but it's seriously unlikely to ever happen.
I already said that.
Nevertheless i was not able to see any MASSIVE difference in frames drop.
@ Tacticalnoob, It's probably not easy for people who are manio skizofrenic to understand, Sorry!
Rofl!
Dajmn!
Well, let's agree that there changes was not _that_ big, but significant.
I do hope the changes between S2 and S3 are at least as much as S1 / S2.
Where is the night / day and rain?
Personally I would like to see LFS concentrate on it's core strength, if we're honest there is a lot of stuff that LFS has fallen behind it's competition, the only part where it is still miles ahead of anything is endurance racing and that's where the focus should be. We got stable netcode, flawless systems to incorporate driver changes and plenty of community based addons to make LFS THE endu sim. There are some key components missing to catapult it in new spheres though, dynamic lightning (day/night), dynamic ambient temperature, wear on mechanical parts, more server slots.
I probably forgot something important but these would be my "must have" additions to stop the 24h of hotlapping, get some of the key endurance racing aspects in the sim and make it stand out of the strong competition there is these days in the simracing market.

Oh yes. In endu races LFS is still top of the hill and to focus on that would be great.
Is S3 the last update?
