I have been playing the demo a few nights. Took a while to get it all working the way I expect. But it's a good racing experience now that I have the MOMO gear setup right and the graphics cranked up.
Decent graphics, physics, controller setup and sound. All check!
But since I already have Richard Burns Rally, GT Legends and soon GTR, I will have all the racing I really need from them albeit solo vs. A.I. not to meantion I have not even tried Flat Out or rFactor.
So the only real attraction for me to LFS is the online community RPG element of having tracked stats and some minor recognition and some relationship to people of like mind. That being people who can't get enough racing. That's the "cool" feature to me.
So I grabbed latest version of the demo. Here I have been joining servers to try on line and of the 15 or so different games I connected to, what do I find???? A bunch of loosers playing smashup derby or tag and talking smack to eachother. Or a race starts finnally and some dork ruins it by doing headons in the wrong direction and laughs.
Not fun. In fact the opposite of fun in every way. I want to race with other racing fans and not a bunch of 10 year olds.
Is the REAL online environment of LFS better if you own the full game? And I mean ALOT better?
Please describe!
Because if it's not much different. Playing against AI in GTL and GTR is more than enough for me already. And my Rally fix already comes in the form of RBR.
