s2 is not expensif just ask to parents or something or find a job
Heh yeah.... $24 is (here in norway atleast) about half of what a normal game costs. Or around the same price as a big pizza and a coke. And far less what most people waste on beer later tonight... :drink:
This thread is silly. A demo isn't a free replacement for the full game and not made for the masses to have a free game. It's a glimps of the full game, and a better glimps than most other demos out there. So now this glimps lost it's drifting capabilities. Since LFS is NOT about drifting, even if it's possible, it only makes the demo more appropriate. If you like the demo and buy LFS, very good. If you like the demo and can't afford LFS, that sucks, but doesn't differ from any other thing you can't aford. It's a good demo, better than other demos around and represents LFS very good. Now people should take their choice and stop whining.
The FBM, is a real car. A younger brother to the Formula One car. Buy S2 to get the BF1. And when you first play LFS, it tells you not to use keygens.
Personally, I don't give a crap about drifters. Sure, NFSU was fun for a while, then they got obsessed with it. Demos are demos, I had to live with it for about 3 weeks, then I bought S1. 3 weeks later, came S2. During the time I was playing the demo, I absuloutly hated the XRT, due to the lack of a G25. The MRT was fun(when I bought S1), and so was the CTRA(Was STCC back then).
Another angle: many demo users who have enjoyed the XRT for free for so long may now finally be prompted to get licensed. Those who have been deliberately sponging for ages probably wouldn't fork out the money no matter how good/bad the demo was.
lol, have u thought of people that r too young then? for example, im only 14, how should i get a job? I have the money so thats not a problem for me but still there r players that can't get a job so they get the money
Quite a nice change of perspective, but it has flaws :P
1) Turn it round and you'll get following chart:
Money gained from a demo user: 0£
Money gained from a s2 user: 24£
2) You have to make people pay for LfS, and the best was to achieve that isn't in giving the demo users content (which is, after reaching a critical mass, counter-productive: if they have enough content, they feel no need to upgrade).
3) I think it is more likely for S2 users to pay for S3 than it is for demo users. We have a saying that goes like this: "A sparrow in one's hand is better than a dove on the roof", meaning that getting 12£ almost surely is better than the remote chance for getting 36£.
And some demo users really make me laugh!
In how is LfS a worse simulator than before if it doesn't have the XRT? The simulation hasn't changed, it even got better with the new clutch heat. I can understand if the sim is less fun to you, but it's not a worse simulator because of that.
And I really do fear the prospect of a large scale demo user boycott. Just imagine what it would mean to LfS! I mean, the consequences would be... unimaginable!
Mow some lawns, wash some cars, ask to do some other chores for people, get a paper round, get a good report card in school so maybe you get a reward from your parents or family, save up your allowance if you get any, ask it as a birthday or christmas present, the possibilities are endless. I had a paper round when I was 12/13.
But in the end, once again, it's not LFS's problem if you don't have or can't get money, it does not automatically entitle you to anything.
Yes, they will get prompted to get licensed, but I feel sometimes here it is not so friendly atmosphere against demo users, they are similar people when compared to those that have S2, some may be bit unsure and some may have just few questions or even some complains before moving to S2, if they are treated like scum, it may affect to their decision to get game, maybe they can get impression that they are not welcome at all.
You all write so damn fast
From my opinion removing XRT was good thing, there will be sure more people now that get license. My rather unclear point here was that demo users are very valuable too, support them, guide them, don't bash them and they will learn or find something else to do. Helping them to find why they should buy product they use will have much better results than yelling them how stupid they are and practically saying good that you leave. I believe this board is also one marketing channel of LFS and we should at least try to keep that on mind too
lol, did i complain about patch Y?
I told u that I can buy it if i want to so don't call me "your crying about nothing" u r the one crying about that some ppl cant afford it, lol.
The price, for me is not a big deal so stop saying that im a ****ing "your crying about nothing"
I have a good job, yet I can't afford, let's say an Aston Martin DB9. Does that mean I should be entitled to get an unlimited test drive when I go to the car dealer? After all, I can't afford it so they could at least try to understand my situation and let me keep driving it. They are so dumb for taking it away from me!
I am always amazed at the threads where demo users moan about what they get for free.
There is always more demo racers than S2 on the LFSWorld stats so its about time the Devs did some sort of time online limit or at least something to make the demo have a time limit.
I fully understand that some people cannot afford to buy the game but why should demo drivers have the same say as S2 drivers or even any say at all
Is it not time that this forum had a Demo section and all the other sections were locked so they cannot post.
The more things you get for buying S2 the more will buy it.
