Nothing.

Quote from (The Stig) :

If the VWS is ready why couldn't you release it and then release the new stuff in packs?

Because they want to realease the new physics with it so it feels like the real one.


The saddest part of this topic is that probably Scawen doesn't even read it.

Early 2012.

Quote from ASR Sanchez :

Maybe something will change and peoples will start to come back, and new peoples will appears, but time is running, the game is becoming more and more boring, or empty, or...find you the ideal word.

Of course, updates! I'm pretty sure the player count will go up once the Scirocco & other new stuff is released


But I agree with everyone in this thread, a little report every month or two will be great.

Quote from Furiously-Fast :

Well I do appreciate the work they have done so far, but with that alpha tag it shows that LFS is not complete, therefore I expect additional content, even if you have to pay for it (e.g. S3). If the devs were to remove the Alpha tag, I would not expect more content because I will know it is a full game. Simples!

If the devs want to continue developing the alpha game, I would expect the progress made to be slightly faster. If that is too hard, they can write a paragraph, or even just a couple of sentances to show how development is going on the game (PR.) It doesn't have to include release dates, just what they have been working on.

Scawed said the Alpha tag will be removed with 0.6A. But after Alpha, there is Beta so yeah

Quote from yeager :

Because nearly every problem with people on this forum waiting and complaining is down to communication. LFS is a fantastic game and i've gotten WAY more fun for the money than any other software.

However the developers really do a poor job of communicating their work to the user community. Why report no progress? Simply because people are waiting and a few words of assurance that things are still under way but no dates yet to report goes a long, long way.

There is so much frustration on this forum simply because nobody really knows what and when things will happen. A simple few lines every month, giving just a little insight into what is going on, would ease tension a great deal. Especially when updates are over a year late.

In my mind the delay is totally justified and I am 100% behind taking all the time the developers need to produce a product they feel is of quality. How long it takes, for me, is not the issue. The inconsistent communication is.

Come on guys, you have a huge community of loyal followers willing to pay well above the asking price for fabulous updates to the best online racing simulator ever made. All we ask is for, say once a month, a small summary of how you are getting on... effective communication can go a long, long way and I would hate to think people are leaving LFS due to it.

Couldn't have said better myself

I REALLY hope they aren't trying to release S3 with the new physics patch (but I think they are trying). Because they would have to finish Rockingham and another new car (for S3) along with the Scirocco and we dont want to wait till 2012


I will be happy with another progress report to see how development is going and what is left. (and very happy with a TEST patch soon*hint*)

Almost 2 months have passed since last report, I wonder how is the development going


Can we at least have a TEST patch, even if it's filled with bugs please?

Hey, anyone can invite me?

EDIT: Thanks to Migz for inviting me

Does the prize redemption page says "Coming soon" to everyone or only to me?

That was increibly amazing!

360

ATI or NVIDIA?

I can do that from the Nvidia control panel so I'm guessing you could too

Happy new year everyone!

The problem is that LFS dev want to do EVERYTHING at once.

- Tyre heating and cooling -> Patch 0.6A
- AI driver improvements -> Not important, Patch 0.6B
- Limited setup system -> Maybe with patch 0.6A, can wait to 0.6B too.
- Suspension updates -> Patch 0.6B or C
- VW stability control -> Last thing to worry about, patch 0.6Z


Most of the things can wait for later, because it takes YEARS to release it otherwise. Oh, why don't you annunce and start doing night mode and the other 6 vehicles that are unplanned yet, so you can do it all at once and release it by 2020?

Quote from Tomba(FIN) :

I can give you the exact answer. Eric is one of those laziest human beings on earth.

The other possibility is that he quit LFS development and is having a normal job. Otherwise, I don't know.

It's not going to be released soon. Because it will be first released as a TEST patch and then over 9000 fixes in TEST patches.

Quote from Furiously-Fast :

I went on the internet and I found THIS.

That's the most funny website I've ever seen. ****ing genius


Bookmarked so I can show it to my kids someday

Either like it's today or dead.

We wish...... Maybe for next year's xmas?

I don't know, I have 4Gb RAM and 512 video ram. Someone go to the same corner and try to reproduce it?

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I think it is. This part of the track ins't rendered with some of the views. I don't know the name of the track, but you can see the radar

Ps: one of the screens is messed up, sorry.

I agree with OP. I'm not really an old LFS'er but I can't seem to find any (S2) servers with people that play big tracks with road cars in race mode. All the servers are about serious racing

Sweet it's up! I'm going to play now

Some people here are straigh ****s. Didn't your parents teach to to have any respect? Ridiculous. At least have a little respect on his work and effort into making the video. If you don't like it, just say "I don't like it" and not call it shit or telling the author sucks and he's shit and such. Pathetic kids.



I feel ashamed of the LFS community when I see shit like this.

Woo! I LOVE DD servers, 80% of my LFS time is on them
