Dethred,

Although I understand what you are trying to get at unfortunatly you have gone about it in an arrogant and uneducated manner. Okay maybe uneducated is a little harsh but by ridiculing those who love the game or as you put it "fanboys", you are in essence degrading the heart of the game of which I don't think you are intending to do.

However I will ignore this for my response and try to respond to you in an adult manner without jumping to swayed conclusions.

Yes maybe the website in its entirity doesn't give the consumer enough information about the state of the games development and offline play. Regarding the offline issues, the title of the game for me says it all. It's an online simulator and therefore should be judged on its online characteristics which are second to none.

Also if you where setting up a business and you had not fully completed a product but still wanted to reward your efforts with some payback, would you advertise that it was unfinished and risk losing customers and profit? I think the answer would be no and therefore you are unqualified to make a criticism on that point.

And finally seeing as everyone else has made a point on how they feel about the game and the own personal stance, I play LFS no other game will interest me until I hear from estabilshed respected simracers that another product is better! The hype over GTR, which online it turned out to be poor, the hype over rFactor, turned out poor and then the hype of netkar, which turned out poor.

Couple this with how this game is evolving and reacting to its competitiors shown in the latest F1 car release, it continually shows me that my investment in this game so far has been worth it, and long may it continue.

Right thanks guys, I think I have enough info from that. Sounds to me as if it is a bit of pot luck so to speak with how well it'll work out. Never the less I'll give it ago.

Quote from DEVIL 007 :You shouldnt have any problems with lag or ping to LFS using home wireless network.Depends ofcourse how far away you would be from the router but it basically only should slowdown a speed between router and your laptop.

I'll be within around 20m or so, no problems with that?

Using a wireless network with LFS

I'm currently in the process of purchasing a laptop, recognising the need for internet access without a direct connection to the phone line I'm looking for help on which wireless router is the best one in the current market for around £30-£40.

However my main worry is that with the 1MB connection I have at the moment will routing it to my laptop result in an increase in lag and general speed of LFS, or will it be able to cope with no problems?

Answering to the original post and noting I haven't read any of the others , I think that you'll never get an exact answer to how a race should be raced. It's a matter o common sense and no-one will ever agree fully. Just look at top level motorsport these days, crashes and differences of opinion happen all the time.

You just have to acknowledge a mistake when you know you are in the wrong.

Quote from herki :I updated LfSLaunch, now the attachment is http://www.lfsforum.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=8594

Your link comes up as invalid so until you post another valid link I'll leave it as it is.

Other than that all other requests have been seen to and the list has been edited.

My teammates are the reason why I play LFS, they are all great people who help each other and even if not all of them are online at the same time, there is usually one or two on the servers. This means more often than not we are having a laugh, racing against friends is fun it makes playing the game worthwhile.

Quote from keiran :Great interview Wouldn't it be funny if a patch for LFS was released on the 10th of April (nK pro release date) that would hurt my course work/studying plans

Keiran

I was thinking the same thing! I'm abroad on holiday when that date comes and goes...

Damn

I can't race at the moment because my MOMO's pedals don't work. 6 months, 3 Fixes later and BOOM!

That just sums up about how good they are.

I personally think you all give Tristan a hard time...but I'm a team-mate so my opinion will be judged bias or bum licking. Which I can assure you isn't the case.

Quote from ajp71 : I really see no need for karts, IMO there's a huge gap in the sim-racing market for historic racing

Isn't GT legends filling this gap?

Crashing into anyone for the sake of it is wrong...if it's one of your mates.

Fair game!
