Wich kind of cars would you like in s3???

[OsC]

well i open this post to see wich cars would people want improved in final s3 :), and who knows.... Scawen can see this and put the most desired cars for lfs user ;).

My preferences are Racing Trucks, , Sports Prototives (fasters than gtrs :)), a autocross kart, WRCs and karting.

Dream is so cheap :p

[gremwood]

More road cars :) Like the imports people like to mod and stuff. Maybe the devs could add some simple spoiler on/off features. Not anything too flashy, but something simple!

[Batterypark]

Everything from 1930's GP cars to pickup trucks. Not karts though.

[deggis]

old 80/90's Group C or modern Le Mans Prototype:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/lolo.gege/24hduMans/2003/2003_13.jpg

The only new car class I could think of (if not then some kind of RWD car with similar performance to XRF).

[keltern]

jap cars (supra mk3 & mk4, old skylines maybe? celicas, old and new) american muscle, german cars (AUDI!! hehe! Mercedes C and E-class, 3 & 5 series BMW)

just some of what i wish we had to choose from.. but when (if?) cars can be modeled by us, i think i'll start a little audi-project! :tilt:

[spyshagg]

latelly i'm having loads of fun with cars i never drove before (not even in S1), the kind of fun i didn't get from faster car races. I drove the FXO first time yesterday and im in love with its races.

so, we have tons of tracks, tons of cars..... whats missing?
perhaps categories
we have normal road cars, GTr's, SS...

i would like non-modern cars.... true beasts from the 80's and early 90's
Ford Escort Cosword type of cars :)

[keltern]

ooooh! i'd LOVE to see a sierra or an escort coscorth in LFS! :tilt: BUT, the car i'd love more to see, is the urquattro or maybe the later S2 coupe! :D

[Marty502]

-A sports prototype.

-An early 80's turbo Formula 1 car. :D

-Some sort of exotic car. McLaren F1 like. Gobs of power, but still a road car.

-A RWD car to compete with the UF GTR and the XF GTR, with slicks and no aero.

-A muscle car perhaps? Obscene torque, but nasty handling. :D

That sums it up, I guess.

[mr_x]

-A RWD car to compete with the UF GTR and the XF GTR, with slicks and no aero.

says he with Demo Racer under his name... NOT that i am implying anything


anyway, S3... a FWD Touring car or 2 (BTCC/WTCC) you know the kind i mean, truck racing will be fun aswell! :smileypul

[Burnzoire]

Karts, & Motorbikes. I'm nto overly keen on either but it would make sense to expand in those areas.

Oh and V8 Utes (pickups) :)

[Mikkomattic]

Before I mention anything else, The class of cars I think is missing the most, and is the next natural evolution of what should be stuffed into S3, is the 'supercar' class. McLaren F1, Ferarri Enzo, Bugatti Veyron, Koenigsegg, Porsche Carerra GT. I'm dying to find out how crappy a 2 ton car tuned for super mega high top speeds would handle on Aston Cadet.

Secondly, I do find historical F1 car to be appealing. Anything from the 80's especially. 1300hp in qualifying anyone? :D

Racing trucks? Sweet cheesus. No thanks. If something like an SUV or pickup truck is put in, I hope it's only for educational value (a lot of people have very very very distorted views on just how far this 'car handling' of them goes).

Hmm.. some shitty muscle car with solid rear axle american style would be funny actually. I wonder if the physics engine can simulate flexing chassis? That'd be awesome. Teach people a bit about shitty chassis design. :D

Lastly I can say, that in general, the Group C type circuit race cars, the Group B rally cars, and the legendary Turbo F1 cars are pretty much among the most wanted in a very large group of racing enthusiast circles. Sooner or later, it'd be very fun to get one's hands on that sort of thing.

[Stellios]

-Something like a Ford Lightning pick-up

-An old 80s style car, such as a mustang or charger

-Something like an M3, has big power, is a family saloon and RWD, but will blow your head off. The FZ50 is nice, but is lacking a bit grip in my opinion.

-Anything that doesnt have a turbo, too many of the faster cars in LFS are turbo'd i would like to see some normally aspirated quickish cars.

[Mikkomattic]

Some actually want to race trucks? May I ask what the appeal is? I wish to get to know more on what goes on in your minds. :)

[Mario Toyota Racing]

i would like to see Alfa Romeo 155 Gta :smileypul and 75 3.0 V6 america and Fiat Tipo 2.0 16V in XFG class and also bmw e30 320i maybee golf mk2 Gti and also Audi Quattro and some more low powered cars like Zastava Yugo that would be great:thumb:

[Stellios]

Its big, its heavy, it goes like stink and i just have a feeling it would make aggressive races better. Cars like the BF1 are good but are too delicate to get into a good scrap as one hit and youve lost it a lot of the time.

That makes sense. What about a NASCAR vehicle then? Oval racing is pretty popular on LFS, maybe it's time they added something like that to please that crowd? I hear those cars are good at 'wrestling'. lol

McLaren F1

I definally want this car in LFS!!! That would be very sweet

I am extremely surprised one hasnt been released to be honest, the ring and FO8/BF1 isa popular combination.

[Nunzio-ICC]

shifter karts please! I Road race these things on car tracks and it is great fun because the draft is so important, you get the chance to work in groups, and the corners are very fast since the track is so wide.

Another cool car would be one of the incredibly fast can am race cars from the 70s or 80s, not exactly sure but im thinking of the ones that created a vacuum underneath the car with suction. The cars died out because they were too deadly but in a virtual world theres no worries there!

[CombatWombat]

Something with some balls.

We dont have to pay for gas in LFS... whats the deal with these 2 liter 4 bangers? What kind of GTR runs a 2.0L anyways?

So sign me up for GroupC, Killer-Bee's, or an old-school Can-Am or Trans-Am car.

[Yucko!]

:)

[Hankstar]

Rally! 4WD, 400hp, dirt. I believe LFS may not be able to support point-to-point rally stages as such, but why not some special stage type dirt courses, or large dirt courses through trees or whatever? A souped-up RB4 and a couple of other 4WDs to compete with it would be very cool :up:
If Scavier wanted to release a separate title called LFS: World Rally - a dedicated rally sim with point-to-point stages - I wouldn't object ... hmm, it's a nice dream anyway :)

Bikes? No. How would you simulate racing a bike for someone who's most likely sitting down behind a steering wheel?
Trucks/utes? Maybe. Limited appeal. Could be fun though!

Prototypes? Hell yes. Le Mans style cars would be insanely good - BMW has one and LFS has a new relationship with BMW ...

Retro-style muscle cars? :nod: Hell yes, why not. They did fictional muscle cars for Interstate '76...which brings me to my next point: arm us to the teeth! Wrecker Patrol SWAT Team! :D

based on a road car too. and i like the idea of utes too

[Yiots]

Real cars... not fiction ones. Not really fussy about what cars because now we have a Formula 1 in LFS (who needs a road car if u can zip off in your own F1!)[Just kidding hardtopper freaks].

Having seen the McLarenF1 review on Top gear with Tiff driving... I would have to agree on that one. Also rally, drag(1/4 mile muscle freaks) and anything else that races, or is a supercar :thumb:

[ShannonN]

Get rid of the open wheeler stuff - there are way too many F1 games/sims out there - forget trying to put a V8 in the LX6 :)

Just put in some modern Muscle V8s with bodies windscreens etc ?

why not offer the current FXR, FZR, GTR in a V8 as well as a 4 cyl turbo, keep the same shape etc etc just a simple selection of turbo bizz box or real muscle at the gararge screen, would be far easier to implement than have to design whole new car shapes etc

LFS should stick to the fictional cars. If I like to drive a real car,i'll buy another game. We only need to fill up the cars that are missing; a rally car and a supercar. Muscle car would be all right.

Totally correct. Supercar, perhaps not, but I personally would like a Muscle Car.

It's up to the developers however. I trust they will give cars we will appreciate, even if it is not what we want. :thumb:

[Woz]

This aims to cover as many categories as possible. Specific cars do not matter its more types of car. I have included a couple of track ideas but only to complement some cars

- 2 more RWD cars to go with UFR & XFR (Old MkI Ford Escort style and something more modern to balance)
- 1937 style car (Spirit of Speed done right)
- 1980s F1 style cars (6 wheel elf :))
- 1967 F1 style car - Need say no more.
- Nascar type car + couple extra ovals
- WRX style Rally car + couple of tracks
- Formula ford style car
- Racing Truck
- Aussie V8 type car + Bathurst like type track
- Sprint car + mud oval

[Primoz]

I'd still like to see racing touring cars. We have two, UFR and XFR, but WTCC for example is not FWD only :) You have the dominating BMWs that are RWD. Audi had a very successful quattro too. XRT/FXO/RB4 mucle up? :) And about too many XRs, BMW has the normal 3 series, a M3 (so that takes care of two road cars, XRG and XRT), it has a WTCC car (320i, the new XR would fit into this one) and has a M3 GTR (XRR anyone? :>) So i think that 4 XRs wouldn't be THAT much. It would still be a lot, thats true.

[overdoped]

As many said before: LFS needs some more Racing-like, but not so overpowered RWD Saloons.
Good example, often mentioned: BMW M3 :smileypul http://www.speednation.com/store/media/aa70562sm.jpg
http://www.performancebmwmag.com/images/wallpapers/31-800.jpg
And there is one other good old german car: the Audi Urquattro (4WD)

i really want LFS have many cars as possible... like GT4... a lot of cars... various types of same car... diferent years, models, engines etc...

2 in special, Nissan Skyline and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution... i love to see them in LFS

cheers

[farcar]

Yep - LFS would be complete with a brutal V8 or two (no, the F08 doesn't count :D )

[Sp3cTr3]

a go-cart for the small parking lot track builder thing. would be perfect, and a big bulky V8 for the oval

get a stock car looking vehicle with a big rumbling V8 and see all the nascar fans swarm LFS as there hasnt been a decent Nascar sim since papyrus' nascar racing 2003 season

v8 GTR around 550hp :thumb:

[Greboth]

LeMans prototype would be good. Especially if it was comparable with the bf1 or fo8 - eg less power but lighter, or less power but more fuel effecient of summit.
An v8 race car - like holden / fords etc that could compete with the 3 gtrs we have now.

[Execution Style]

I'd love to see a group B rally car. No need for more than one, just something AWD made for dirt that blows the RB4 away. I don't think the fastest rally times should be with a 2WD vehicle :scratchch


Also a vintage indy car would be nice :D

This is what we need:

[Tez4]

Yes, rally cars is a direction that this game can really explore. What about a set of buggies, maybe one RWD and one 4WD?

A NASCAR type car would be great as well. You would actually have to let out of the throttle on the oval for a change. A car with this kind of weight would also be quite a challenge on the road coarses.

A sports prototype would be just awesome, somethings much smaller than the GTRs.


I believe that LFS's niche is that it is a comprehensive racing game. What other game simulates road cars, GTRs, formulas, rally racing, oval racing, drag racing, etc. as well as LFS. Because of this, I really don't want to see too many real life cars. If the developers had to model real cars, their jobs would become much more difficult because they would have a strict standard to adhere to. With generic cars they can easily balance out weight and power and car classes without haveing to worry about a perfect representaion of a real life car.

In summary, what I would like to see for this game is:

-More Rally Cars (buggies)
-More rally tracks (maybe a whole map devoted to several different on and off road configurations)
-NASCAR type stock car (more ovals)
-Sports Prototype
-Some really short Karting tracks for the MRT.

[duke_toaster]

If you want a rallycar, what about an RB4 WRC :)

LMP: Yes please
LX8: Yes please
Fiat 500 clone to go against UF1000: yes please.

But...

I would welcome absolutly anything other than ricing. I'll just be grateful for what we get.

I think LFS already covers most classes. But some more rally stuff would be cool - maybe some cars based on the terrifying group B spec monsters of the 80's, such as the MG Metro 6R4. Or maybe some hill-climbing/pikes peak-style cars and tracks would be interesting too. :)

[Mazz4200]

Westfield XTR / Radical SR , (mini Le Mans racer's, think of LX4's with downforce and rear engine :nod: )

minimal grip on crossply tyres

very poor aero ( forget about downforce these things struggled with lift and in 1969 actually had dispensation from the ban on movable aerodynamic devices as the longtail version would wander width of track at 240 mph)

minimal weight

[Vain]

About downforce on 917:
That car was under continous development. In it's first days it was more like a rodeo beast (imagin a car that yells "Get out of me! I don't want you to drive me! Get out! Now!" at the driver), but later it became better and better, and there are people who drove it and actually called it a race car, in it's later development stage, that is.

Nice story about the 917: No Porsche testdrivers wanted to drive the 917 anymore after driving it a bit, because it was horrible (bad aero problems, fixed later). In a struggle to find willing testdrivers Porsche had to hire some american testdrivers who never heard about that car. No one who knew the car wanted to drive it. ;)

But actually I don't need a 917, I need a car like the 917. I can still put a nice GULF livery on it. :D

Yep, 917 gets my vote too. I remember some of the stats - on 1970s tyres it had something like 1100 hp in the ultimate qualifying config, could do 0-60 in 1 sec, 0-100mph in 2.1 and 0-200 mph in 13 secs - and keep on doing that for 24 hours! At Le Mans it exceeded 200 mph at 5 points on the circuit, and if you look, at the circuit even in those pre-chicane days, you can see 3 obvious points, a fourth maybe, and the fifth....? Absolutely awesome car.

How about a ground effect turbo BMW F1? 1300 hp in qualifying trim, ground effects, so corner like on rails, then crash - no in between!

Only driven the full version once (I think 2 physics updates ago) so I can't say anything about handeling vise what's missing.

1) Super car like thing : v12, midengine, light (something like a zonda wanabe maybe).

2) old muscle car: V8 7l (but with the v5 5l sound :scratchch ).

3) grup B rally car. Maybe two (mid (Lancia S4 or Ford RS200) and front engined (Audi S1)).

4) Beffed up RB4 matching WRC car preformance (Pegeout 307 wrc?)

5) A prototype race car with masive amount's of downforce (I vote for the 917-alike too)

Hope to get S2 soon (no money :()

[Pain-less]

Before I mention anything else, The class of cars I think is missing the most, and is the next natural evolution of what should be stuffed into S3, is the 'supercar' class. McLaren F1, Ferarri Enzo, Bugatti Veyron, Koenigsegg, Porsche Carerra GT. I'm dying to find out how crappy a 2 ton car tuned for super mega high top speeds would handle on Aston Cadet.

I have to agree, or how about 4 wheel ATV's :scratchch

[Commie]

Karts, & Motorbikes. I'm nto overly keen on either but it would make sense to expand in those areas.

Oh and V8 Utes (pickups) :)

That'd be nice, a few months ago I had a Commodore race with some people on one of the Aussie servers :D .

[Dr.AK]

What I would really like, would be something along the likes of an old Group 2 car from the 70ies. I don't care what kind of car it is, as long as it looks old and has these really wide wheelarches as common on the racecars of the 70ies like these (http://homepage.mac.com/frank_de_jong/Media/1977/Audi%2080) or these (http://motopartner.de/pics/gynd_klassik/tw73_7.jpg) or even these (http://motopartner.de/pics/gynd_klassik/tw73_2.jpg).

What also would be very, very nice would be something like a Skoda S 130RS (http://homepage.mac.com/frank_de_jong/Media/1977/Skoda%20S130). Small, light, rearengine and rearwheeldrive.

The Moulsan straight is LOOOOONG. Didn't know Le mans is such a fast circuit.

Anyways, i'm still sticking to racing touring cars. Want that before anything else :) (BMW 320i WTCC? :scratchch:nod:)

[OsC]

anyone knows if can make a post with a vote option??? Think would be nice open a new thread where people can vote for his favorite new category :)

[Flycantbird]

Rocket-Kart, Rocket-Truck, Rocket-Shopping Cart...Anything prefaced with 'rocket'. Also a longer track to go with it. The bonneville salt flats, perhaps, with a few very highly banked turns scattered about.

Also one of those swamp buggy things...they race through swamp land and have tires which are as thin as those on a motorcycle, yet are around 5 feet tall.

What else is left ? Maybe a boat that morphed into a plane.
Or a rocket.

The only new car class I could think of (if not then some kind of RWD car with similar performance to XRF).

Just found some interesting lines, maybe the devs could arrange another deal with BMW? :thumb:

Gavin Ward, BMW:
"Although diesel racing cars have recently become fashionable it was back in 1998 that a BMW 320d driven by Briton Steve Soper, among others, achieved a landmark victory in the Nürburgring 24 Hours. This is generally accepted as the first victory for a diesel car in a top line international event. Now customers wanting to emulate this success can buy a 120d car with a racing package.
Powered by a 1,995cc diesel engine, the BMW Motorsport-equipped 120d provides 245hp and 450Nm of torque from its modified engine. A lowered suspension with adjustable anti-roll bars and dampers feature along with 332mm front disc brakes with six-piston callipers and 284mm rear disc brakes with four-piston callipers. Lightweight BBS alloy wheels, a full aero package including rear diffuser, and a stripped out weight-saving interior also serve to increase performance."

A madass 800hp 4WD pikes peak car based on the RB4 or the FZ5.

Karts. Give me 1-2 karts and an environment build for karting with few configs and I'm a happy camper.

Also some sort of single-seater that's like a FOX but without wings.

I know that it isn't a real kart but that should please your karting needs. :D

Are you saying they are putting a race version of bmw 120d in LFS??? :mischievo

[zeugnimod]

He said, they could, not they will. :p

[overdoped]

In fact I only said they SHOULD, my opinion. Maybe they will, that'd please me very much. And a lot of other users :)

Seems that presentation worked :)

[MatthewStyles]

A GPL era car, lots of power and no downforce.

[Hankstar]

:nod: http://www.arielmotor.co.uk/ :nod:


I want that one.


Lots of power, no downforce, open wheeler (ish) - but street legal and with two seats. Oh baby. The closest you could ever get to driving a GPL car to the shops (if you actually had anywhere to put your shopping when you get there).

456kg and 220hp. That's just a bit better than the LX6. The engine is rear, and contrary to what you say, it does have some downforce.

Sort of like asking for a rear engined LX6 in many ways :) The Raceabout is not very different from this.. unless you count out it weighing almost twice as much.

[Jakg]

not really, the atom would be the most extremem car in lfs (look at the TG track, F1 car- 59 secs, Zonda - 1:19, Atom -1:19!)

Can we have a go in this please?

I know I'll get flame sprayed for this but how 'bout a good ol' 2400lb, 800hp stock car.:hidesbehi

[farcar]

These little things would be awesome around SO or AS Cadet

Some info (http://www.aussieracingcars.com.au/sponsors.htm)

[pastorius]

- E30 BMW
- Any BMW M - series
- Any Straight 5 or 6 cylinder RWD or 4WD
- Group B Rally car, or a hill climbing monster

All of above based on real or fictional models, no matter.

These are just MY PERSONAL preferences, and I would definitely be happy
with ANY new car :smileypul

P.S. There's many excellent examples on this thread. It's very interesting to me to see, what everybody would like the best.

[[PTG]Chef_uk]

Would love to see the New Mini used but thats cause i have one :p

4WD all the way though for me.

[Primoz]

But nowadays the straight has two chicanes: http://www.experiencelemans.com/images/le_mans_track_lay_out_2002.jpeg

Yeah, i know that. They reduce the top speed dramatically. They were introduced when? At the turn of the century or close to that, right? (somehow i've gotten an idea of 2002 being the first ayear with them)

[Viesturs]

What about this ?

[Live For Kill]

dont know, if someone wrote that... i thought about some electrical cars. they are silenter (or what? i mean its not so loud...) dont need fuel (so its lighter), but after 100 miles, it needs 6 hours recharging (how would a 199 miles race lasts?). plus, its not pullote the air :) , and thats the most important:)))

[SchneeFee]

:x

[Tanuva]

Some actually want to race trucks? May I ask what the appeal is? I wish to get to know more on what goes on in your minds. :)
YEAH!

(appologies if you've already seen it)

And yeah, i want one too :D

[lawdog]

I don't know if anyone has said this yet, but I've been looking at purchasing a '93 - '94 Toyota MR2 Turbo, which got me to thinking that a mid-engine street car would be great. One built to approximately the MR2's specs (relatively light, 200 hp) would be competitive in the Turbo class, and a GTR version could be added as well. The TBO class currently has FF, FR, and AWD cars--why not a MR layout as well?

[Tanuva]

racing trucks!!! (no, not these crappy utes - _trucks_, as seen in MBTR :D)

And some real rally car (what has been mentioned before a few times afaik...), best choice would be one of the Group B's...... :thumb:

Who really needs cars like the BF1? They're fast, sure, but ... its no fun to drive 'em, the need of concentration is too big :razz:

[Valkyrie]

ermmmm

would like to see 1 more F1 type car to compete with
the BF1 and all think it would be fun to have 2 types

but mainly standard race car's like the RS Sierra Sapphire Cosworth
(Cause i use to race one :D ) cause its closer racing
and more fun and some of the BTCC cars.

A few more road cars as well if its possable :thumb:
