Sorry to post this as I'm sure it has been posted before. However, I see a lot of fed up racers and critics on here saying Live For Speed is finished; I just installed the latest version with the new Westhill layout and am absolutely flabbergasted at how amazing it is. The developers have done a simply FANTASTIC job and yes I needed to use capital letters when writing 'fantastic'. The track looks great!

Westhill was a little bit boring originally but now it's the best track in the game. Some of the roads surrounding the track are eerily similar to the old Crystal Palace race track. I suppose this is just coincidental or is it just me?

Scawen, Eric and Victor; Thank you and please don't lose heart. This game is still the daddy of sim racers; and the only one that still feels like you are actually there at the track racing for real. Other games may have better graphics but LFS is the only one that has the spirit of motor racing nailed to a tee.

Congratulations boys on a job FANTASTICALLY done! and with the caps lock again!

I'm now off to hibernate and pretend I'm Gerry Marshall racing at the old Palace circuit in the early seventies. Huzzah!

@Xiao How come you never play online we miss online players specially at s2

Mwoah..

And this is through the air... Internet interconnection lines are even a bit longer. => massive lag

Plus any game connection through the Chinese firewall is unplayable.

Somehow I've only just noticed this! Sorry!

I love LFS and first played it in December 2011 about 4 months after first coming to China. I seldom race online simply because I am not that competitive but it's nice to see that I'd be welcome. I'm heading back home (U.K) this August and once I have a half decent computer set up I'll take you up on that offer!

Yeah the firewalls here do not help....nor does the awful internet speed. Silly commies! Nah, the Chinese are great....mad, but great!

BTW what do you make of the new Rockingham layout? It's in my hometown (Northamptonshire) and my house is about 10 miles away from Silverstone. When the F1 is there I can hear the cars form my house!

I have cycled round Silverstone on my bike and watched ASCAR and the British or the world super bikes, I forget which one, at Rockingham way back in 2002. I saw Steve Hislops last ever race when he crashed his bike into the wall. I was looking elsewhere when the crash happened but I was there. It's so weird to drive round that track in LFS and especially knowing I am in China but it's all cool.

Thanks for the kind words buddy and I'll race online more often once I'm home.

Peace!

No need to take it too serious. Fun is another strong factor which lies on multiplayer! =)

Though I know you know it. Maybe you are a person which takes any thing seriously?

I hope I see you around in there...
