I noticed during game play that there is the possibility of explanding the SO layout. Near the pits there are two 'blocked' roads which can be easily* explanded out. This would mean that all of us C I T Y L I F E fans can finally get a near-enough replication of a city. The road markings are already there, the only thing that gets in the way are the barriers on the side, if they could be taken away and/or replaced with kerbs then it would be much more like a city and not a racing track.

Another thing that I noticed is the objects available in the Shift+U mode. I find that if you are making a 'road' layout in SO then at least you should have the option of something other then Barriers and Metal Fences. I was thinking of something along the lines of barriers such as:http://www.eddystoneselfbuild. ... ges/water%20roadworks.jpg that do not have the power to launch your car into orbit when you trade paint, but are more like the tire stacks, so in hitting them, they slow and damage your car but they leave you the option of being able to drive. I am hoping that by S3 in the objects database we should be able to have something like kerbs and grass, highway posts and working traffic lights, but I know I am asking for too much, just the new barriers will do for now.

*Not so easy and takes time but didn't want to put this in as it makes the devs say "ah cba".

LFS is Online Racing Simulation and I don't honestly get the point of this "city life" thing. You drive cars around track like they should be driven in real traffic or something like that. That's so boring, I could do that all day in real life, I like normal driving but when I start LFS I want to forget speed limits and try to go fast as possible every possible second. Cruising around is not racing, so it's waste of time for the devs put extra time for it at the moment, there is much more important things to do, like the sounds which I think you citydrivers would also enjoy

Yes I would also agree to the fact that many people who own a car in real life want to forget the rules of the road, but for those of us who don't have a car or are under age or just like to simulate real life driving then it becomes a bit of a problem. I would agree that there are more things that are being improved and the one that I am most awaiting is that there would be a 4 door saloon car to drive.

Huh, I didn't know that as soon as you drift past a cop in real life, they yell "Pull the f*ck over!!!!111oneoen", and then wreck you.

ROFL!!!

FWIW, I was with my brother-in-law when he got pulled over doing 105 (mph) in a 35 zone. Yea, the cop yelled "F" about every other word. Of course, because of this, he was let off with only a warning for "too fast for conditions". See, a cop can not yell and curse at you during a routine traffic stop (if 70 mph over the speed limit is concidered "routine").

He was a young cop, and personally, I think he had fun taking it up above 100 to come after us, hehe.
