Rumors Of S3 (Are they true?)

[Zarky]

Ive heard plenty of rumours about an S3 being made or soon to be made..is this true??

If its is i reakon there should let people add there own tracks/cars into the game(would be so cool)

Cheers Zarky

[AndroidXP]

No.

[aoun]

I think Feb 2009, Rain is being released and also night time for 24 hour endurance races. etc :D

[ajp71]

Yeah there's a super secret S3 Beta test that's awesome.

Seriously wait for S2 to be finished first...

[Kristjan.J]

I have S3 already, had to pay 10 times more to devs, so I got it some years before you guys, mwuhahahah. :razz:

That is a horrible "idea". Have you played rFactor? Threse's a million and 1 horrible, worthless track/ cars. You can't find a race because everyone is using some different combination of cars/ tracks.

LFS has such good racing because it's minimal. It's about racing, not the most tracks/ cars. A few different cars in a few different classes that run competitively is all you need. I'd rather have great racing with one car/track combo, than off balance racing with 1,000 combos.

[tristancliffe]

Oh my, I found the unlock code for DX10.

This is 'only' S2, so I think S3 will be more realistic than reality itself.

[marzman]

Oh my, I found the unlock code for DX10.

This is 'only' S2, so I think S3 will be more realistic than reality itself.The RTL7 release.

[tristancliffe]

Yes.

They even simulated the interlacing artifacts! Amazing!

If you photoshopped the LFS overlay onto a real picture, then that post would have been funnier. You left a lot on the table there.

[NtrlBrnRacer]

I think S3 should acually have people in the crowd, and for the weather i think there should be a random option for the 24 hour races so when it gets night time it starts getting night then back to the morning when it gets brighter, but thats just what i think.

It has been confirmed that S3 will have dynamic weather. That is, changing light conditions and precipitation levels.

It also has been confirmed that i hate and egg this morning. The waitress was beautiful.

Could you please translate that into a proper English sentence.

[poirqc]

It also has been confirmed that i hate and egg this morning. The waitress beautiful.

I even stumbled upon a secret video of an alpha release of S3. The sound is awesome, can't wait!

Edit - I'm french canadian. I speak english about once a mouth. :p

[dungbeetle]

Yes and apparently it's due for release on 1st April.

[Gnomie]

Yeah there's a super secret S3 Beta test that's awesome.

Sssshhh, that was supposed to be our secret! :x

Are you on drugs? :razz: What you've written makes no sense whatsoever.

Stick to writing in French and then we can translate it ourselves:D


(it probably makes more sense than anything i could write in French though:x)

[Zarky]

i have heard of rfactor and got it...i agree with you but....i use the banger servers alot...e.g - -LFS Bangers- - or UK Banger Racing

we have not small oval like 0.211 of a mile (size on average)

We have made a few with them barriers but you bounce off when you get hit and fly in the sky. If there was a small oval with armco fence all way round would make lfs the best game ever

As much as confirmed as Gran Turismo's damage has been for years.

[Stefani24]

Yes, they ARE developing s3 right now, coz s1 and s2 cars/tracks will be in s3 so we already have a part of s3 :P

[SpikeyMarcoD]

Yes.

They even simulated the interlacing artifacts! Amazing!

Did not know you got dutch channels over there in UK.

OMG! I roffled at that!! :D

Even though I think it's pretty sad that we now have words that approximate what an acronym sounds like when spoken, I have to admit, I roffled at that video too! :D

BTW....aren't these 'rumors' coming from the last ASS release where they surmise that since LFS is at Patch Y, and there is only one letter left in the alphabet, that an S3 release is imminent?

Not nesser-scary-ly... After S2 ALPHA Patch Y will probably come S2 ALPHA Patch Z... Which _MAY_ be followed by S2 BETA A etc etc. Then when it passes from Beta to FINAL we may see some S3 stuff filtering through...
I don't pretend to have the slightest idea how Scawen wants to label his releases; I'm just going by what seems common practice in most development circles. :D

[Jakg]

It has been confirmed that S3 will have dynamic weather. That is, changing light conditions and precipitation levels.No, it hasn't. It's just heavily rumoured.

[Not Sure]

I hear these rumors on the internets..

Yes, I know that....I was pointing out that the ASS people were using a very juvenile rationale for saying that S3 was just around the corner.

Since S2 is Alpha, I would guess that S3 is the Beta. Then when S3 is done, you have LFS Final. That's just my guess though.

[deggis]

No, it hasn't. It's just heavily rumoured.
Or heavily assumed?

[Tobsen00]

OMGWTFBBQ

This is banana sh*t, some hardcore sh*t
:nana: + :bandit: = ?

[CobraDrifter]

S2 is not even finished yet.Sorry.

[gribly]

What about the blurry background to the options screen? Is that an indicator of anything?

[Zachary Zoomy]

there will be an S3, but noone knows what will be in it.

[Michel 4AGE]

What internets? I checked the green ones and nobody knows nothing.

Check the tubes, it's there. Inside the fat pipes.

[marzman]

Check the tubes, it's there. Inside the fat pipes.
Ah, ok. I did not know i could look in the fat pipes. I did check the castle (just after the stairs and flag).

[Gnomie]

That's an interesting angle. Maybe you're right! :)

[zak_mull]

S2 is not even finished yet.Sorry.

+1 Why doesn't everyone wait till S2 has finished?! I was not here when it was just S1 but was it the same as this before S2 came out? I would not know...

[marzman]

That's an interesting angle. Maybe you're right! :)

Then what was S1?

I don't know where this discussion is going? It's not even certain there will come a S3.

[[DUcK]]

Well, I have a preview of the new tracks/cars of S3

Enjoy!!

lil duckschmuck has noize friendz

[Damo74]

I hear these rumors on the internets..

I heard they've made the internets for computers now...........

[Bones73]

Here's my take on things.

Why does everyone have to speculate on what S3 is or isn't gonna have? We all know it is coming but no-one, and i mean no-one knows what is going to be in it or when it is going to be released other than the devs.

So why try and spread rumours and ruffle each others feathers, coz you heard from a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend who supposedly knows Scawan, what is going to be in S3 or when it's going to be released.

I understand that everyone is getting excited at the prospect of S3 being released but how long did we wait for S2? If S3 is going to be as spectactular as everyone suspects then it will probably be a long wait before it is released.

What we have now is the best sim on the market and I'm sure the devs want to keep it that way. Plus the fact the you can play it on not so spectacular pc's which is something I'm sure the devs will keep.

Shoot me down for sounding negative but I look at as being patient and letting the sim run it's course and be improved in the time frame the devs want, not what the racers want.

[[DUcK]]

Amen :D

[Storm_Cloud]

The only fact (ie from the developers) that I have seen is from Victor during the resetting pb discussion for Patch Y. In that debate he mentioned that it would be a "relatively short season" for hotlaps. Now we can only infer from this whether that is a short season up to another major S2 physics update or whether S3 will turn up.

Doesn't really matter. I am having a blast in LFS as it is.

[lfs-drift staff]

lol i always want to know what the "s" mean in s1/s2 ? :really::shrug::D

[zeugnimod]

lol i always want to know what the "s" mean in s1/s2 ? :really::shrug::D

The most logical answer would be "stage" but I don't think the devs have confirmed it anywhere.

Sorry, this is way off topic, but this is pretty much a useless thread anyway.

The problem with rFactor is not that it has Cars and Mods, and Tracks. It's that the devs did not poke there heads out from the ground, and look around abit. They SHOULD of looked at Counter-Strike, they SHOULD of looked at the sv_downloadurl function within STEAM / Counter-Strike / Source. If they did that, they would realized that what they where doing was in fact not just stupid to a almost new level. But also going to hurt them in the long run.

So, I post here a fix for you all, for all of rFactors problems. Be a computer programmer, that actually thinks before he programs. Be a computer programer that sees what works, and uses that. I don't think the LFS Devs will make the same mistake the ISI crew did. I am willing to bet that there WILL be downloadable content in LFS S3, and I bet that it will not bother you to much to wait an extra 2 - 5 minutes connecting to a server to download that content. We all did it in a Server - Client relation ship in the CS 1.5 days. Now in the CS 1.6 / CS:S days we have a web server that provides these files much faster, giving you a Server -> WebServer (for Content Download Only) -> Client relation ship for a bit.

I think these rumours aren't helped by some website running a google adwords campaign with the following ad:

"Want Live for Speed S3?

I've seen them appear on my main site, in particular my setups page - www.gentlefoot.com (http://www.gentlefoot.com)

Haven't clicked thru so not sure why they are saying this.

[tommer]

Cmon peeps, the wind ups about s3 is stupid, no offense, but as long as it comes out whilst i am still into lfs (next 20 + years? :razz:) and it has features in it that i think was worth the wait :smileypul

I am perfectly happy to wait the time :nod:

We shouldn't rush the developers, we should steer them in the right direction

hah, steer. my boring humour :really: anyway...

I suppose i will just join the club of people who are telling the impatients to be impatient. but even then, i am impatient myself for s3 to come out, but its best to wait i geuss

S3 will be out just after Duke Nukem Forever,

Cant wait to play it on a 9900000GTX @44080x25040 on my new Dell 195" Neural interface Monitor.

Lame jokes aside, when its done.. Don't we all wish we were rich enough to be able to afford that? when i am old enough to have a job, i will try to get a gaming pc, but i will never be able to afford something like that - don't rub it in :(

Back to the guy who asked what the S means in S1/S2.

It in fact means 'stage', Those who actaully bought the CD with S1 (patch 1.01E?) on it would know this, Yes i bought it ages ago.

Off Topic: Anyone got a link to the 2 movies that appeared on the LFS S1 CD? The Bank Robbery and Night Racing?



EDIT: After posting i realized i bumped this topic from april 2nd.
