Jesus Christ... I posted a simple thread stating I was bored of the game and hope that the next patch rekindles my interest and you two numbskulls go off in an all out Duel.

Perhaps this is why I stopped playing LFS. Not because I found it boring, or wasn't that great at it. Maybe it's the fact that most of the LFS community act like children, constantly yelling at each other and being completely nonconstructive.

Nah, there's much more.
Some people think this place is theirs (thanks to the lack of partecipation by of the devs) and no new users can state their opinion.
It's a bit like an exclusive club with a very light entry fee but it makes you feel like you've got the absolute wisdom.
New racers? No way, they'll surely act like crashers and grammarrapers.
Game development questions? You better think about that twice, boy.

Pick one.

You know what? It's fun when users on LFS's forum start to promote other games (not to talk about devs advicing people to do the same as well) .
Imagine Jobs twitting to just go and buy a Samsung Galaxy while he's thinking about a new iPad.
At least i have my ten minutes laugh every time i see the same old childish answers to legit questions.

If i was a newbie coming on this forum for my very first time i'd certainly see how boring and useless the forum has become.
But that's not user's fault, i know. After all there's very few things to talk about right now.
I think i will start a "post your left index nail" thread just to entertain the mass.

What about an alarm clock?

I'll buy you 3.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

If you frequently find that your posts are being removed, save internet bandwidth and moderators' time and don't post at all.

Thanks for the advice, you won 2 internets.
Oh, sorry mum, ill'go and finish my homework now
Ah, by the way, saving internet bandwidth would make corporations cry so i guess it is not a good idea.

A forum is not a democracy, right, but it isn't a sign of politeness if you keep avoiding answers that have been made to you in the last 2 month (at least) .
My idea about this madness is kinda known and it's really pathetic how some people (pretty much everybody) can't understand the point.
It's not about people wanting stuff now or what, Scawen and Victor have found the time to post in the old S1 thread and, somehow, don't seem to have seen the load of questions that didn't regard tyre physics.
It's kinda childish really how some adult people don't want to say the truth or be sincere with people that trusts them.
Wasn't LFS supposed to be different because devs would have been in strict contact with the community to feel the reactions and stuff in order to improve the game and have an idea of how much their work is appreciated?
Real life must be really so hard if a person can't find 10 minutes in a week to write down a post about stuff which doesn't seem to exist anymore (i am thinking about OTHER updates) .
Save your usual "manly" comments and advices to look for something else because really it shows that most of the people here lack in the text comprehension department and seem to can't even write in their native language.
Seriously, try to think about what's going on here using YOUR head only just for a minute.

Quote from majod :

I'm thinking about selling my current gear and getting something else:
Canon 30D, Canon 50/1,4, Sigma 10-20/3,5-5,6
together it's worth about 1000€.

I'm considering Canon 500D or 550D and...what about Pentax K-R? I don't have any experience with those, especially with their lenses.
With Canon I would get EF-S10-22 and nothing else - that's all I need.
Any helpful ideas?

Stay with canon.

In fact i am waiting, everyone is but looks like somebody can find time to post an old and obsolete version of this game (which should not be played anymore because it has issues, right?) and doesn't want to answer those questions about new content and stuff NOT related directly to the tyre physics.

Tell that one to your government.

Nice one, but i didn't vote for him 3 years ago.

Quote from dadge :

ok. hows about wait...

What about answers?

Last one is pretty cool.
Nice thought on lenses, as long as they satisfy you there's no need to change them.

Quote from bbman :

Maybe burned through his money again, so expect 1.3 in two years...

Everyone is delaying stuff because nobody is giving updates.

Maybe it's time to tell us if you're working on LFS for your own pleasure or to make a nice game so it can sell more in the future days and maybe become a big reality.
Since people is questioning my point of view it would be nice if you could say the truth once for all.
Also, why are you not speaking about other updates too?
We can't ask Eric something since he replies like we asked about how much sex he has in a week.
Is it legit to ask you questions, in your opinion, Scawen?
I can believe you about the difficulty of the tyre model, i know it requires lots of study and investigations but i can't understand why other things have to stop in the meantime.
Bah, looks like you don't want to answer these questions and i can't still understand why if you think you're being honest with us.

I'm not going to cut my veins off, for your information.
I honestly don't care if the updates arrive or not, i never asked about them and i dare you to demonstrate the contrary.
I am just stating the obvious: devs have nothing in hand so far, in my opinion. Otherwise they would have told you something because there's no reason not to say something about the things that are supposed to be released.
And, by the way, it's so hilarious to see how much rage you "optimist" have towards the people that are just asking you to open your eyes.

How is your childish and blind optimism blend with sarcasm going to help?
I don't even believe a god exists let alone think updates are at a good point.
Be smart, faggots.

Good mood will bring you updates, count on that

Quote from farcar :

I had a think about why they haven't done this.
Any videos or screenies would render all fanboys (and maybe some fanboys posing as moaners) moist as hell. Seems like a no brainer.

The only reason I could come up with as to why they haven't, is this:

• A secret overhaul of graphics progress.
  

No ****ing way.

Quote from Intrepid :

I am sure for talented people like Scawan there are more lucrative avenues they could go down to secure a stable income than developing a car simulation. There is, I speculate, a more fundamental motivation to creating something like LFS than the pursuit of pure profitability. While for LFS to remain a sustainable project there has to be revenue streams, but is that alone their main goal? I don't KNOW! Neither do you, or anyone else on this forum know. So to use the term failure in regard to LFS is just stupid, and naive.

That's my main objection - the term 'failure'. And for anyone to suggest they know a 'better way' is even more preposterous because they haven't even attempted their own simulation. Very few people ever have even tried.

I guess i should start complaining about Berlusconi, even if i didn't vote for him, since i am not a politician.
LOL.

Quote from Amynue :

Victor should make a video of Scirocco with new tyre at Rockingham using his LFS Record. That would visualise Dec 2010 Progress Report

It's such a simple thing they never thought about it.
Ah, in b4 we don't have a nice tyre model so we can't let you see what it looks like now.

Quote from Shotglass :

and of course you do?
the main goal is obviously to make a living for 3 people and their families
suggesting anything else is preposterous
