Quote from Concept-X :

This must show something...

Quote from NightShift :

Sure, that LFS players are picking up rFactor, while rFactor players never tried LFS before

pwned

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

But you've just hit the catch 22. You may indeed have all the cars and tracks in the world, but if only 15% of them are playable, you therefore only have 15% of the cars and the tracks in the game, if you see what I mean.

But that 15% will still beat 7 tracks and 20 cars

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

LFS will never open up to mods, and even if it were to, I doubt it'd be either until the project dies or S3 has been finalised. This is not a "community project", rather the work and dedication of 3 guys.

I agree.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Is that supposed to be good?

I like the license plate on the hot pink one

Just another example of rFactor's "poop" graphics, as stated above...

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

You know what I mean. For a start, the cars that come as standard with rFactor are utterly TERRIBLE. Now, for a simulation to be considered serious, surely, the cars that are made by the developers should be at a certain standard, no? Which they, clearly, aren't.

Yes, I know what you mean but that's not what you said.

I will agree with you there to a point. The cars released with rFactor were, well I'll just say "not great". Although the Lienz cars and the accompanying track are a lot of fun, both of which were released by ISI.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

The quality of rFactor depends on what mod you are playing, and the number of poor to mediocre mods far exceeds that of the number of excellent mods.

Yes you are correct. The number of poor to mediocre mods for rFactor far do exceed the number of excellent mods, but with that said, the number of excellent mods and tracks available for rFactor far exceeds the total content of LFS.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Thing is, only about 10 of those 232 cars actually handle somewhat realistically!

I'd rather take 15 decently modelled cars with good physics, then 200+ cars with average ones!

In your mind maybe but that clearly isn't the truth.

I can't believe this is a thread??? You guys must really be bored!!!

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

TBH, I think that all rFactor has to show LFS that it shouldn't open up to modders.

:hide: No flamez pliz!

Well, yes and no. There are a lot of crap rFactor mods but on the other hand there are quite a few outstanding ones as well.

I think the excellent ones far outweigh the crap. Besides, they only open up more choices, which seems to be limited in LFS.

Too tight....too controlled.... that is just ridiculous.

20 cars and 7 tracks....talk about tight and controlled!

Quote from Gills4life :

Shows how apalling the game is online!

It doesn't show that at all.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Just one example: I never ever played rFactor online, because of the huge amount of work involved in finding the right car and track versions to join a server.

A perfect example of creating a mountain out of a mole hill.

Might just be your "Realtec Onboard Sound"? I know other games have issues with it.

Don't know....don't drive it much

Quote from BURN :

He probably just likes Rtractor cause of the mods n stuff... i guess. without them Rtractor, would actually be a Tractor-Sim

That's not true. That would require a mod.

Quote from Shotglass :

just ignore the guy he comes back here every few months to ramble about how bad his dirty little secret looks and leaves again quickly to make sure his gtr and rfactor friends dont find out about his affair

Actually, I haven't seen him in the rFactor forum at RSC in quite some time, and I am there daily. So I have no idea what he has been up too. Although I'm quite surprised he's still bumping this thread. Maybe it's just to keep you guy's on your toes.

Quote from neRu :

ans7812 - its called flatshifting.

It has been known to be called "powershifting" here in the US.

Although, like you said it is commonly known as flatshifting.

Quote from tristancliffe :

Could be worse - they could sound like nKP or rF or GTR, and make you cry in your sleep when the samples merge or the bees attack.

Ha..ha..ha...you're too funny. So, exactly what vacuum cleaner were they trying to emulate? Electrolux or Hoover?

Quote from Shotglass :

so if you play rfactor youll catch an std ?

ummmm.. I really don't think so.

Quote from Boris Lozac :

XCnuse, sorry, but you are talking bulls**t...
It doesn't look crap, it looks bloody REAL, yes, that's right, it looks REAL, not like a computer game, but like a simulator should look.
Cars look like they are really there on the track, not that i am Alice in Direct X wondwerland, but like i am really there, racing.

I know what i am saying here, i am graphic designer, and bit of a artistic soul, and i can tell you that LFS looks great. Photo realistic.
If blurred enviroment and over saturated textures are real to you, than i rest my case..

LFS doesn't look like crap but for you to say it looks real and photo realistic is absurd.

My ..aren't we a jealous bunch.

Quote from tristancliffe :

Some games NEED modding to work (rCraptor for example, which would be nothing without mods as the dev team have zero understanding of car dynamics, although it is only just above nothing WITH modding), others don't.

LFS doesn't need it at all.

Thanks for the quick reply.
