Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Honest Opinions and New Info?

[@benn87]

I won't buy the game until it's feature-complete and they've delivered everything they promised or hinted at. At the moment the game looks more like Test Drive Lite than Unlimited. I'm tired of games being released unfinished and only maturing with the customer. I'm being extra strict with this game because Test Drive is one of my absolute favourite franchises.

[@GoofyDriven]

yea I can understand this. I was really hoping for the houses and the real garage spaces but hopefully they add it in the game soon

[@РашКраш]

Через переходник. Да тоже самая долгожданная игра И пожалуй единственная . The crew motorfest ну -+ В beta версию играл физика норм была .

[@SAMOSTWANTED]

I agree first person animations need to be fixed. The crew was horrendous

[@quadvision8907]

They've been fixed 👍

[@GoofyDriven]

yea I really hope the fix the steering wheel animation. one of the things I would really like to see in the game

[@SicSemperBeats]

Man Crew makes me mad. After the first one, they just fell off. I'd argue its Ubisoft's worst franchise

[@carguy9863]

We need an offline mode

[@gamesmaster1060]

They should have the bikini carwash lol. Best part of TDU2. Seriously though I agree with you on the garage/house relating to number of owned cars. A thing a lot of racing games are missing currently is that sense of earning your cars and getting richer. Thats one thing tdu did well.

[@GoofyDriven]

lol that was a funny part of tdu 2. but yea i feel like grinding for the houses and having real garage spaces would've been nice to have but we will still probably get houses later on

[@mahmoodyaser40]

We need sedans man, so far, there's not a single sedan in the game, we must have at least few sport sedans, I've seen people asking for Rolls-Royce and other luxury brands which will be epic, especially if pick-up missions from TDU1 will return.

[@GoofyDriven]

yea trust me sedans must be in the game otherwise everything will mostly be sport cars

[@oliverlonnroos2752]

I love the idea of adding fuel to the game! Hear me out... If you run out of fuel you can either pay an NPC tow truck to take you to a gas station or request players in your lobby to tow you to a gas station in exchange for a small sum or xp. And refuelling costs a small sum of money every time, that way you think about your in-game economy more... I think that would be a really fun thing to add

[@GoofyDriven]

yea that would be a very cool idea! if they were to add it i feel like it would just teleport you or you press a button in the menu to refuel if you run out but the tow truck idea would be amazing. its like those timed missions we had in tdu 2 would add more immersion to the game

[@NormalCleanCars]

just play : Motortown Behind the Wheel. It's ugly graphics but it has gas, Towing, other players can tow you or give you fuel.

[@kennymaze27]

They made dis game at the last second and it shows

[@adlibbed2138]

the fact that they're delayed this game for 2 times, and show whole a lot of pre rendered crap during those years had me thinking that this game spells disaster from the start and the always online requirement and the disastrous open demo firmly confirms it lol

[@himeros8826]

I doubt thats the case. They are trying to make an AAA game with AA budget and it shows. Imo, they are doing a fantastic job for the money they have, but definitely, TDU is not a saga for AA budget

[@shalawsorchi]

I'm waiting for them to give us houses before i hop on this game.

[@thedoomslayer14]

Online only = NO WAY

[@codename6]

The roads and city feel absolutely DEAD. Needs peds and a lot more traffic and life.

[@GoofyDriven]

yea i have a feeling they won't add peds but traffic is definitely needed

[@LiamG-95]

When I played the demo in June, I enjoyed it for what it was but heard somewhere that it was based on an earlier build. From videos that have been published since then, the physics seem to have been tweaked, but one thing they should fix is the suspension on that traffic model Ford Raptor.

[@GoofyDriven]

yea lol the raptor looks like its slammed

[@theninethrees8044]

It annoys me that it still doesn’t have peds. All that environment and it looks dead

[@GoofyDriven]

yea would be nice if they have it but I think they aren't adding it prob because if licensing. it could promote violence in a way and some manufactures could pull out the game but i would like to see peds in areas that are locked like in restaurant balconies or behind rails that we cant break

[@miguelpinto7668]

@@GoofyDriven midnight club LA had pedestrians and Rockstar made a cleaver system where pedestrians were able to avoid the car on their last moove. All cars were licensed and no injuries were reported so far (pegi +3 game)

[@GoofyDriven]

@@miguelpinto7668 yea i agree that we should have peds but overtime the way manufacturers give out licenses changes. but i definitely agree that peds would make the game much more immersive

[@MuscleCarLover]

The progression is a MASSIVE thing for me. I know I want a Koenigsegg Regera and expect that to be an endgame car, unlocking it within a week will just mean that it doesn't feel like an accomplishment. Making it a grind in order to get something really cool is where you feel like you earned it

[@GoofyDriven]

yeaa trust me some of the cars will take 200+ hours according to devs and i don't mind at all. this doesn't mean all cars will take that long only the supercars I'm assuming but i like to know that its not gonna be something i play for a week and have everything then barley play the game. this will give me a reason to keep playing the game and will feel more rewarding achieving cars

[@MuscleCarLover]

@@GoofyDriven I only hope that the pricing will be based on how high end the car is and not whether it's AWD or not like I saw in demo footage. I suspect that was based on how the handling was at that time. Price balancing similar to the previous titles would be great

[@jimmix2424]

17 years later and they are still recycling the same cars😔

[@GoofyDriven]

hopefully we get some new ones on launch

[@SkyMystique]

Interesting thing I’ve noticed is in Hong Kong island the steering wheel is on the right hand side but in the game I see left hand side

[@GoofyDriven]

i think its mainly based off where the cars are made. like if the car is made in a country that has left hand drive they will use that model although they did use the 350z instead of the fairlady z which is the Japanese model. to be fair forza did the same thing with the cars relative to the map as well

[@InfiniteBullets2]

devs got a lot of work, however i see this game being at least average from its competitors

[@GoofyDriven]

yea its got a lot of potential though

[@gamesmaster1060]

I'm not sure, if the game does it right then Id like it better than the competitors. Forza horizon is getting boring to me, its getting quite samey and they all have that cringe festival crap

[@InfiniteBullets2]

@@gamesmaster1060 yeah i haven't played forza in months mabye even a year, and this game had me hooked for a while so far, i even played crew motorfest more than forza and enjoyed it more

[@AlexlucianMoaca]

Best car sounds? Nhaaaa.. Decent.. best ones? Project Gotham 4 Man ❤

[@GoofyDriven]

from the recent ones and im comparing it to most open world racing games not closed track if we comparing it to all of them assetto corsa mods have the best sounds

[@badbeck76]

The city looks like a game in 2010.... this is a racing game but always has been about beautiful scenery. Really hope that demo is REALLY OLD!!!!

[@GoofyDriven]

we havent seen half of it so there is prob going to be nice scenery on those locked areas

[@namonpanton2426]

Would be good to have an option for traffic moderation, light/medium/heavy type setting maybe

[@GoofyDriven]

that would be nice to see but since its online only i dont think they will add it

[@namonpanton2426]

@@GoofyDriven do ya know, that's the thing I keep forgetting,that it's online only atm.. I really hope they sort that.

[@GoofyDriven]

@@namonpanton2426 yea i hope they eventually add an offline patch but it wont be anytime soon if they do

The Crew Hongkong Edition

[@leelee9418]

Will the finished game support wheel simulator thrustmaster

[@GoofyDriven]

should have support for it. i think they said most wheels will be supported on the game

[@adlibbed2138]

I wanted to like this game if it weren't for the dreaded "always online" aspect of the game you see, if The Crew 1 represents the absolute, worst case scenario of what happens to my game when they're done with the game, I'd prefer to avoid this, and every other these types of games whenever possible I suspect this game could've gone the same way of vain The Crew 1 did knowing the odds, and before you suckas' getting me even started with GT Sport, repeat after me with this : *it's an exception to the rule*

[@GoofyDriven]

yea the online only thing is something many people aren't happy about but I'm willing to give it a try. The devs did say that they will look into putting an offline mode whenever the game comes to an end but it's not their worry right now. I'm just happy that they are listening to the community for feedback

[@adlibbed2138]

@@GoofyDriven considering this game has way too many problems to count more than just always online aspect, I'm gonna went ahead of myself & say this game wouldn't even last for not even 5 years passing at most and I honestly doubt this game will receive it's promised offline mode the day when they're done with this game knowing the odds

[@GoofyDriven]

@@adlibbed2138 yea we just gotta wait and see i guess. this could be a start to more tdu games so who knows what they might add later on

[@benn87]

@@adlibbed2138 I don't even see the offline mode as a 100 % guarantee. I know many people are clinging on to that. But I'll only believe it when it happens. The very fact that they don't want to offer a solution until the game is at its end shows me how (un)important the topic actually is to them...

[@adlibbed2138]

@@benn87 exactly, hence the part of my comment that goes "knowing the odds"

[@Tooreg]

it feels like a pegi 3 forza horizon game. Casino? Night club? Nahh, just cringe ai dialogue

[@GoofyDriven]

casino will be there on launch apparently but yea cutscenes aren't the same as they were before

[@sophisticated]

The handling on the 370 was good. I could drift. Did you turn off Tc? You are right about the garages and houses. I think if you think the game looks bad and doesn't drive well, you will be disappointed. I don't think it was bad at all and I don't think the difference will be as huge as you are expecting it to be.

[@GoofyDriven]

it wasn't bad in the demo but there is some new gameplay that shows improved handling and looks much more realistic

[@sophisticated]

It does look like they tweaked it. Personally I could drift so maybe that's why it doesn't look that different to me. The dead zone and sensitivity options are going to be the biggest difference to me. They weren't in the demo. I suspect they weren't in it so that they could get feedback on the base out-of-the-box settings.

[@GoofyDriven]

@@sophisticated yea it wasn't too bad drifting in the demo but transferring to another angle felt like the car was gripping up. the new gameplay looks really good so I'm hoping it feels smoother

[@lowlo]

I don't understand people complaining about online only. It's a MMO

[@GoofyDriven]

yea I don't mind trying it but I don't think it's the fact of being an online game people are worried about its the fact that they won't add the ability to play offline especially if they end up shutting the servers down eventually causing players to lose all their progress

[@xzorn2981]

looks like an engine demo

[@WAGAKO19]

Wanna play a game? Yeah. $60 please. Damn. That's a lot, but alright here you go. Alright, l'll install it now. Done! Alright, let's load it up. My email? What? No, I want to play the game, I must have misclicked something. Let me close out of this. Ah, there's the icon on my desktop. Let's click that. Do you want my email again? 1'm confused, I think this is glitched, I want to play the game I paid for, not sign up for something. I think my game is broken. I can't think of any other reason because there's no way they'd require my personal information to play a video game. That would just be silly.

[@GoofyDriven]

yea a lot of people don't like the fact that you have to sign up but also if people want to see cross platform eventually we have to get used to the idea of signing up in video games especially since its online only. most games are doing this and its the only way for people to connect across platforms

from hk, have high expectation but it doesn't look good 😅

[@GoofyDriven]

the game will probably have more updates over time but it might not have everything we want on launch

[@23Savage-00]

Is this better than forza graphics/physics/bigger map?

[@GoofyDriven]

forza graphics will prob be better since its a triple A dev but physics cant say for sure yet since the game isnt out. the map is about the same size but a lot more dense so more roads and areas to discover

[@miyonuri]

i absolutely hate the wide lanes :((((

they better fix the gameplay graphics etc before release i paid for the ultimate version on PS5

[@worthy7834]

Can't stand hearing a gamer say, "I don't care about graphics, I care about gameplay". Cringe.

[@GoofyDriven]

if you grew up on the ps2 era you would understand. Most games nowadays only focus on graphics and barely add in features for immersive gameplay so leaves the game feeling empty with nothing to really do. I do care about graphics to a certain extend but most of the time graphics is not a concern for me as long as it looks decent enough. look at gta san andreas for example, although it released 10+ years ago it still holds up because of how feature packed the game is and this goes for many of the games. I'm just tired of people complaining about graphics when most gamers are the ones who are saying companies are focusing on graphics and not the game but when they do focus on the game now people complain about graphics

[@worthy7834]

@@GoofyDriven nah I feel that.

[@benn87]

I've been playing for a good 30 years. I've seen a lot in terms of graphics in that time. Including games from before my time because we still had access to older computers back then. (Amiga, Atari etc.) So I can say with full confidence that graphics play at most a minor role for me.
