I wouldn't be shocked if Scawen postponed tyre physics right now and started working on new master server and unlocking protocol... because of this.
Then again a reasonably robust new protocol + master (which will take at least days to be cracked) will take probably a month or two to develop... nah, Scawen is alone, so maybe even three or four.
I think that will make it "major update". Although you probably expected different one, right?
Just keep playing the cracked LFS, and it may go like this... if it already didn't. The legit community will be then much nicer to you. If you think now they are toxic, just wait for then.
They crack it some hours ago thats why some of them are apologize but they can't unlock full game hahahaha and they don't have server list and others stuff like on legal server
Buying a car is one thing, it needs fuel too. Speaking of which, 24 pounds is about half a tank of fuel. (Depending on local fuel prices, size fuel tank blabla, I know). Half a tank of fuel in four years.. What is this? Not much is it. So it can't be the pricing of LFS, the price is used as an excuse.
How to say, quite simply that nothing shocks me now.
The one who made pereulok is still very strong. But all the credit goes to the DEVS.
I think it would be better to understand why this has happened and to draw the consequences so that we can move on.
As long as users have access to the server files, LFS will always be cracked. So it would require an innovative system.
The cruises / drifts servers are more numerous than the race servers. Perhaps it would be necessary to modify the content of the S1 to make it attractive for the server cruises / drifts
After all it is necessary to understand to advance and not to repeat the same errors.
No. Buying a car is a thing, and maintaining a car is another thing. When you buy a car, you give out, mostly, all your available money. When you MAINTAIN a car, you just buy gas, or some parts, which is one hundred times cheaper. I don't try to make excuses, i want to buy it, but i can't right now, that's the point.
Its been so for ages. Look at other games, every game can and will be cracked. Its not their fault if they are poor or live in a poor country, its our fault when we judge them. Its not a solution to steal tho.
Never forget that while £24 is a lot of money in Eastern Europe, Turkey or South America, it isn't really that much in the UK or Western Europe, where the devs are based. I could post random figures but they're fairly meaningless without taking the cost of living into account. But from what I gather, in most Western countries you'll earn a bit more than S2's worth in half a day if you work on minimum wage. Which is still peanuts if you're lucky enough to land a high-end job, mind you.
LFS might not have the same aggressive sales strategies we've come to expect in gaming in this day and age(OMG -80% PRAISE OUR LORD GABEN!! Nevermind that the game is overpriced for the remaining 11 months of the year), but it doesn't mean it's a charity. I'd be curious to know what the dev's profit margins are on a license, but they would probably look quite petty for a one in a lifetime, "never come back" payment.
I'm shocked that millions of gamers around the world are happy to buy the new FIFA every year at full price, which is essencially the same game every year with more eye candy and updated rosters, while EA are oblivious to the quirks and issues that plagued it year after year. Or that people are happpy to pay $12/car and $199/year in iRacing land(on an engine about as old as LFS', AFAIK..). Why? Because people buying the latest FIFA are mostly rich kids with high-end computers worth much more than the games they play. While all the others with older computers are playing on the 3 or 4 years old versions(still a good decade younger than old LFS, ironically...), and don't bother EA with their requests because they know there's no way in hell they're gonna update their old ass game(they have some pretty sweet mods to make up for it, granted...). Meanwhile people in iR are actual or wannabe real life racers, who are led to belive that paying 4-figures for their virtual racing is a good deal, just because they can afford it, simply enough. All of that puts the worth of a niche £24(or £36) game into perspective.
tl;dr: Everyone likes a free lunch, but the value of a free lunch depends on who you are and where you live...
I'd be more than happy with finding out the ratio of £12/24/36 is versus the average UK income, and applying that multiplier to other countries. But then you'd have people exploiting that to get the game cheaper than they can at home, or worse and reselling it for profit, bringing you back to square one.
Some people just get off on 'getting a deal' and cheating the system, even when they can clearly afford not to. I know people like this in real life. It is an insult or a failure for them to have to end up buying a movie, or a song, or a game. Some entire cultures seem to have this attitude, one that springs to mind is China, where free apps to watch any movie you like are absolutely widespread, even with people that can afford the latest insanely priced smartphone to watch them on.
Without a significant amount of extra work and policing, I can't think of a way of altering the cost depending on the region without opening up another way for selfish people to start exploiting this project.
they is becouse this people don't respect any rules becouse they can make new account at any time now most of them will be banned on legal servers when they will act like on crack
You can even create your own car, so much more fun than the legal game.
Seeing as this forum has chosen to embrace hacking this game I just thought I might as well join in as otherwise we might create North Korea or something......
I have a question for you guys. Is there a cruise server that has 40 players on it everytime, 30 staff members, a 5 years perfectioned insim with everything you need, on real lfs? I think i know the answer. The point is that, this kind of things happen only when they are done illegal, awesome people, with awesome facts, happen only when it's not the time. Shall i say it? This kind of people are 10 times smarter than regular lfs players. I don't take sides, i only said my opinion, don't get offended.
The people angry here are most of the "cancerous" brazilians, they try to insult and swear in brazilian but noone understands them, just ignore them lol
No. I think i didn't say it well. By that, i meant people that are working on insims or servers. Sorry if my english is bad, i have learned it since i play this game, and i'm proud of it.
