Live For Speed vs rFactor????

StevieP · 10 May 2006 at 14:06

I want a new racing sim to have a blast at and I've narrowed it down to Live for Speed or rFactor... (I've got GT Legends but wanted to try something else)

I've played demo's of them both and both seem really good but I remember LFS being very difficult to control when you get past the initial few cars?!?

So I think I'm leaning towards rFactor but there isnt an up to date demo out there!?!?

Any opinions on this???

You could buy rFactor and get a refund if you don't like it.

How does this work??

Do they just deactivate your serial key or something??

Must admit, I like the feel of the original multiplayer demo of rFactor....

Do both of these games have single player modes?? (ie. championships etc)
Otherwise, do the on-line games have championships, it must get a bit boring just having one-off races with no real outcome!!

Thanks for all the info guys.....I'm leaning towards rFactor at the moment....

Would be nice to get a proper F1 mod though, is there a finished one around????

Took the plunge last night and got rFactor!!!!

Have installed a couple of mod from rfactorcentral.com (the Carrera challenge is superb!!) - are there any other sites I should look at??

My system is as per my sig, and on 2x AA I get the occasional slight judder?? - is this normal, anything I can do to improve the performance without turning it off???

Thanks for all the advice.....

Thanks for the link, I'll have a mess around with some settings tonight!!

Quick question, I downloaded the game and paid on-line, thing is, my confirmation email says something about getting 5 "renewals" free of charge!?!?
Does this mean I can only install it 5 times before it wont work anymore?? I reinstall my entire system from time to time - cant I simply reinstall the game and use the code they gave me every time???

I've sent an e-mail to the makers asking this but they have a 48hr turnaround and if this is the case, I think I might get the refund!!!!

Any ideas??
