[Deminion]

Hope you lads can give me some pointers.
While waiting for a new expac of wow, i'm looking for something else to play. Used to play Need for Speed on PS2, but not sure to go for some shooting or some racing.
Do throw in some advices, I'm left quite torm atm.

CS:GO is pretty cheap, will run well on most rigs and is played every evening on our server.

Arma 3 always good fun

How about some LFS with our racers?   They're slightly less keen on contact than you can get away with in NFS, but it's great fun dialling a car in and taking part in the races!

Yeah, come racing :thumb: download LFS from here: http://www.lfs.net/ it functions as a demo with one track until you buy it.

Downloaded, guess i'll need to invest in wheel and pedals now, and get my eyefinity setup going.

Hawken and Warframe are pretty cool free to play games as well

I'd use the mouse first to see if the games for you, a good wheel is expensive just to try, mousers are just as fast

That's where the wheel helps tbh, it gives you that steady feedback and the ability to smoothly apply the input.    I get my wheel out from time to time to play LFS and whilst it is somewhat long in the tooth, it's still great fun, especially when you are on a circuit or in a car you are not used to and most especially when you're on TS at the same time having a good laugh!

If you manage better than a 1:40 lap around the Blackwood track then you're ready for multiplayer, but beware as idiots haunt the demo servers, so don't get too frustrated when they keep crashing into you, just join another server. If you let us know when you're ready for some online racing, we'll jump on a demo server with you :thumb:

You may find you pick it up quicker if you join multi player, however as Jamin posted be prepared for a few idiots as you get a few in demo. Try and pick a well moderated server such as any of the [AA], [AMG] and [Mrc] servers and just explain you are new, there are usually a lot of friendly/helpful people on there, or even better like Jamin posted try and get a few of us to join you

Mouse is certainly good enough to be competitive with, I still drive with a mouse and whilst I'm not the quickest out there I don't do too bad. Infact a fair few world record lap times are still set with mouse although it does take some getting used to.

I'll try and get my keyboard-setup working better. Got issues with understeering, so atm i can't even complete one lap.

Have a look on http://www.setupgrid.net/ and http://setupfield.teaminferno.hu/ some great setups on there donated by racers. save them to your LFS\data\setup folder :thumb:
