TBH I've been racing on CTRA 1 for a while now and haven't felt the need to report anybody. I tend to start at the back the first race, let the field get away, and put in a good lap. I then start towards the middle/front of the pack and from there I don't get people ramming me. The only thing that really annoys me is people not paying attention when recovering from a crash.
I try to respect other drivers (give space, look before changing line etc), and for the most part, recieve the same respect in turn. Accidents happen, but I have rarely thought someone took me out on purpose. I also figure that the reporting system will be a deterrent for wreckers not present on other servers.
Or perhaps I'm just lucky

Me too! I splashed out and bought the limited edition.
It was supposed to have the soundtrack by Brian May with it. However he dropped out, leaving just a few bars of guitar in the game intro and no soundtrack for the rest of the game.
Hilarious in retrospect, not so much at the time..
I still have my Amiga 500. IMHO Super Skidmarks is still one of the best MP games of all time, and its still amazingly reliable for music production.
Cheers!
Ok, lets see what you can come up with for this...

I use them too. Never used the lo-res ones so don't really know the extent of the difference.
Congrats on buying S2, you wont regret it..
See you online
See you online
I'm going to reserve judgement on this one for two reasons.
1. I've fallen for hype before and bought a turkey. Any of you here old enough to remember Rise of the Robots?
2. My machine will probably keel over and die when I try to play it. At least this way I don't get TOO disappointed.
However, I've heard good things about the new RTS 'World in Conflict'. May give that a go. Any of you people played it?

At first I thought C was to blame, but after watching it a few times I vote A.
B and C try to hold a constant line, but A is all over the place. Even though C didn't back off, A's behaviour would have been almost impossible to predict. It seems that C's FOV was such that he wouldn't have seen driver A at the periphery until it was too late..

This one seems quite apt for an internet forum...

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the point of a cruise team..? Is it something for those too young to buy an old Vauxhall Nova, put a massive exhaust on it and drive round supermarket car parks?
Thanks!
As for the dream, don't worry about it. Apparently its a common occurance..
It is weird that there are so many good, fast racers using just the demo. In order to get this fast they would have to have put in quite a few laps. If it was me I would not have the patience to deal with the wreckers long enough to get anywhere.
Kudos to those who race well in the demo, but imagine how good they could be in S2 if they showed the same commitment.

Tip #8:- Try racing for a change..
I'm serious. IMHO you need to be able to drive a car smoothly before you can learn how to handle it in a drift.

Don't worry about it. Try racing on the CTRA servers or equivalent. Far less idiots on there in my experience.
Unless you mean- ''Didn't even get chance to pit after taking out half the field in T1..!'' In that case you deserved it!

What if the devs implemented a feature where if you buy the merchandise for real, you unlock it in game. Eg, buy a LFS T-Shirt, get given a code and use the same T-Shirt in game..
Just a thought...

Tried demo servers for the first time...
When I got LFS I bought S2 straight away without trying the demo online first. Boy am I glad I didn't!
It was like a destruction derby. People wrecking for the hell of it, starting ban votes on the leaders for no apparent reason, constant swearing and abuse. It seemed only a couple of the faster racers knew how to pass cleanly and the rest of the field would try to put you on the grass in order to get past.
In short, if this was my first impression of LFS, I wouldn't have bothered. I understand there is a disclaimer about demo servers before you join, but still.
There must be a lot of potential S2 purchasers out there not taking the plunge due to behaviour in the demo, and this is money the devs could do with.
The solution, not sure. But I do think that the demo is almost too fully featured.. It seems that many racers are happy to just use the demo features (and wreck) without feeling the need to buy S2. Just my 2 pence worth. What do you (more experienced ) guys think?

''Roman Abramovich was pleased with his new LFS setup..''
You complete idiot. Show some respect you ignorant, arrogant little brat.
From what is known about his contract it seems he is pretty much unsackable.. That doesn't mean the team can't make things difficult for him, and it doesn't mean they can't give Hamilton priority over him either.
If I was Ron Dennis I'd drag my feet over anything to do with Alonso's car, setups, mechanics, everything. Keep everything within the rules obviously, but it seems Alonso is the type that will walk if he doesn't have everything his own way...
The usual stuff the bloke sells on the street corner, but thats not the issue here.
You suggested that if someone is not English by birth then they are not qualified to correct the English of a native English speaker. THATS where race comes into it...
And English IS useful, it justs seems like the current generation enjoy taking the language, shredding it to ribbons and urinating all over it.
Ironically, those that speak English as a second language often have a much better grasp of it in my experience.
