Live for Speed incredible!

Dcully

Just purchased full game,one word AWESOME.
My god this is addictive,fun,realistic,and yeah addictive again
Ive been racing offline with AI for last 2 hous or so and will try out multiplayer shortly.
The track design is amazing and really adds to the great physics and graphics.
My only negative point is the sound ,its not bad but possibly could be better.

Its an awesome sim and ive played them all,from GPL,Nascar2003 to GRT2002 mod,Lemans mod,Mini Cooper mad,Alfa mod,BMW M3mod, the list goes on.
Guys its a must racer for everyone.
Nice review here.

Ok thats it back to some LFS.

SouperComputer

yea, the horn is the best feature, great for putting people off at the start!!

Downloaded the demo yesterday and gave it a spin. WOW is a good description. physics are amazing, the head motion really adds to the sense of speed and gives a good impression of the forces and what direction they're acting in. that little 1.3l punto lookalike is great, it handles like a shopping trolly so youve really got to throw it into the corners. ive just purchased a code for it, time to try the online play and the new tracks. buy it if haven't its worth a lot more than they're asking for it.

dunno what it is with the LFS players but most of them are pretty clueless on starts, great fun blasting past half of them

We must get a few irish guys online for some fun.
I race with some decent guys and have immense fun on regular servers.
Butcher if ya get to know good servers and stick with them its great and if muppets join we all vote to ban or kick him.
A great feature is the way u can send recieve setups from drivers on the serverno need to ask for links to download.
Im driving the celica lookalike the RB4 and have some decent setups for it now:)
I love the LFS world section on official site where your stats are updated after every race and can compare with those on your buddy list.
Ill post a few servers i race on later maybe u chaps can do also and your racing tags ?

jesus the horn really does put you off. that split second it distracts is more than enough to lock up the brakes and wipeout completly. been playing it all evening and there aint to many muppet drivers around either.

I use the unusual nick of 'Noel Kellett' to make sure no one knows its me

Just unlocked S1, having fun with the RB4 on the street circuit, but think I'll take out the FX0, as am more used to handling a FWD car

Yum, lovely Honda BTCC skin for the FXO as well

Those screen shots look great, remindes me of the look of Gran Turismo 3 on the PS2. Must get my hands on this one so!

SouperComputer

yea, soon as I get a decent wheel and internet connection ill pop on.

I poped into game last night looking for this. I dident see it on the shelf and i dident bother asking the staff as the shop was closing up. I hear it sells fairlly cheap as well for such a great game. Ah i`ll try get it at the weekend so now!

ButcherOfNog

I don't think its available in the shops, its an online download (140MB) that give you 4 or so tracks and 3 cars, you pay 12stg to unlock it to get the rest of it.

Blueyonder Games in the UK now have a server up, nice low ping, nice cleanish reacing

Sorry for dragging up a dead thread, but is anyone still playing this? I came across it recently, and I was wondering if there were any Irish servers running this?

ButcherOfNog

na, doubt theres any irish servers, anything european should be playable with broadband/isdn tho.

CyberGhost

wow what an awesome game!

I've heard about it long time ago, but never bothered to check it out,

this is the first time that I enjoyed driving a car with a first person view

graphics are a OK, but what is really cool is the engine of the game, and online play is lots of fun, it would be even better if I some idiots didn't keep knocking me off the course all the time
