Quote from Crashgate3 :Notice to car manufacturers:
Please do not forget to forward every design you produce to squidhead for approval before going into production.

You'd actually be very happy once this got into action. We'd be dropping the Enzo, Reviving the 250GT, killing off most of chrysler, concentrating on the viper, forgetting about G-Wiz, and producing more Reventons, while allowing the Japanese to figure out how to make a hydrogen car work.

Oh yeah, and we'd issue a shotgun blast to the crotch of Chris Bangle, every time he makes a new car

Quote from Bose321 :So you're looking for a (french) drift tema. You have quite good skills, too bad you don't know (alot) english, because you could've maybe joined iDrift?

Im sorry, i haven't been around for quite a while... but, is this level really all you need to score a place on a proper team these days?

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :if u don't like electric cars why u keep on bashing them?

who cares about the charge time, it's not like u drive 300+ km every day.
it's just started, give it time and they'll make cars u wanna get too.

I don't like electric cars because they are not a proper alternative to a petrol powered vehicle, but the environmentalists are raving on about them as if they were the next best thing after cupcakes

You will start caring when it runs out of juice in the middle of the city. To get those 300km out of it, you need to drive like a grandma on valium... I somehow don't believe that this is what the "supercar" was made for initially.

Sure they will make it better and more reliable and bla bla bla why do they even try to bother when Honda already developed the FCX Clarity which IS cheaper, safer, it's engine can easily produce proper power, and it's emission free...

Quote from -NightFly- :if you are going to post facts be ready to back them up.

You want a fact - here's a fact
Less fun driving than an exige
More expensive than a Nissan GTR
Slower to refill (recharge in this case) than a Panamax class oil tanker

The only reason all those high profile buyers are buying them is to tell "I drive an electric car cause I care for the environment, and it's stylish ", and then get into their humvee and drive off. Publicity stunt - yes, other than that you have to be a braindamaged monkey with severe hatred for your own self or an environmentalist (pretty much same thing) to want one.

Quote from Dajmin :They were selling faster than they could make them this time last year, with high-profile buyers like Clooney and Arnie.

1. you know why all those high profile buyers like Clooney and Arnie had a prius before buying a Tesla

2. So they've sold 3 and could make 2, not really an astonishing sucess

Quote from 5haz :Well yeah I would imagine I'd be pissed off with the Russians if they rolled into town in 1944 and refused to leave for 45 years.

It was for the better of the countries they were visiting. The once offended and occupied, now free countries are down in sh*t after the USSR has fallen apart. Fact. Plain and simple

Quote from Shadowww :
Squid, keep your mouth closed

I did, my jaw is rarely dropping wide open when I see LFS movies

About the video.
The editing was clean enough, the action was quite nice, and the overall FPS and scenes were good.
You know about the camerawork, and that's good, means you'll improve in your next video.
BUT (please hold in agonizing anticipation of me sledgehammering the video...well, not this time)

Zeugnimod has a point. Plain and simple, a bit more variety in camera positioning, and a bit more complex drift tricks would make this video a lot better. It does tend to get repetitive and a bit boring after a few minutes.
Quite a long time ago, when halfway done with the movie I noticed the same problem - being boring, we had to gather some people on a parking lot track in BL and do polkas (it was still fresh back then) and the UFO...we then added 10 seconds of comic relief in between the 2 big scenes splitting the movie in 2, and it made a 6 min movie easily watchable in one stint...


7,5/10 it deserves

There were tons of lucky ones back in Group B times then.

On the other hand... Why is it mostly retarded idiots who get lucky?

Allright, you want to play "Stealing ideas" bandwagon. I'll give you some of your own logics then

Quote from jnr89 :yes, forza did, for example wich one get Porsche/Ferrari/Lamborghini first?

Need for Speed in 1994.

Quote from jnr89 :forza is a copycat, also adding damage, what a bastard copycat coming from T10, and the most copycat-ish move was to add ROLL OVER, damn..

Need For Speed 4 : High Stakes from 1999 and The Need for Speed from 1994

Wow... Implying more/less realistic physics to licensed vehicles sure is "stealing ideas"

Quote from jnr89 :just STOP the HYPE, a big and billionaire franchise name, lets see how long the hype will go on.

You want to remove the hype and then observe it? Doesn't seem to be logical... and yes, even if you forget all the GT games before that and erase everyone's memories, and then suddenly release something like GT5, it WILL storm into a hype instantly

You stop FM3 hype for a second and you'll see a massive spike in PS3 sales

Quote from jnr89 :so, because of that, GT1 and GT2 were better than GT3 right?

Better in terms of having wider variety of popular WRC class vehicles than GT3 and FM games Im thinking

Quote from jnr89 :Massive Bullshitting
KEYBOARD POWERR

and there we go, a regular garden variety of a forum troll.
Negative IQ, fanboyism, disabled logics, inability to comprehend, make a point or step forward with a valid comparision and finally the constant violent denial of any new information that he's been given.

Bubbay!

Quote from ToxicKlay :I can take it like a man if you say "It sucked hard" though.

Actually ... quite hard.... damn... now that was no fun, like kiking someone in the nuts, while knowing he won't even flinch

Allright, constructive criticism it is than...

1. In the beginning it would be better to change the scene after each time it goes to black with text, not continuing previous scene.

2. FPS needs to be fixed, there are weird lags , try recording at x.25 (more in "making LFS movies thread")

3. the regular movie maker special effects are better when they are not applied

4. you used a standard cockpit cam which kills the cinematographic feel of the video

5. I'd end the movie on the LFS sign, not continuing it with "This is my destiny" as somebody gets rammed out at T1.

6. More exiting online action would be nice

Quote from logitekg25 :its basically a street race theres fast and the furious, so why not 'high speed cruising'

Fast and Furious style video is a hell lot harder to make.
This video however... I REALLY don't know what I've just seen, a lot of cars on a cruise server driving fast, I guess... "Fast and in the wrong game for cruising" probably

AVGN (IMHO) is extremely overrated... I mean, all he does is swear a lot showing us weird and half arsed games from years gone by. Funny the first time, not so, second time. My opinion - saw one review, seen them all.

I prefer Zero Punctuation over at Escapist (besides, they got lots more cool funny stuff going on there)
