    Ian's teasing us some more :)

     

    I'd rather have SMS make an 'Unlimited' kind of game under another publisher than Atari.

     

    TDU1 and 2 didn't reach their full potential and I wouldn't be surprised if Atari had something to do with that.

     

    Heh, I predicted it before you :p

     

    I'm betting Atari, considering how cool Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends is looking in the beta videos.

     

    Any takers? ;)

     

    I also predict, that SMS will make the next TDU and it will be insanely awesome! :D

     

    Still waiting for someone to wager ;)

     

    I'll put 20 quid on it :)

      TDU2 should just be buried, it's universally unloved, they should take what they did well in TDU2 and leave it alone. The houses, the furnature, the casino, the animations and graphics in general. Every single resource should be dedicated to Improving what the fans complained about (servers, handling, everything wheel related, offroad dynamics) and removing what they didn't need. (badly implemented story, license challenges)

        So, I'm not seeing many reviews on this thread so I thought I'd be the combo-breaker. I'll cut the long story short though.

         

        The cars, like most cars in TDU2 are really detailed. Especially the Ferrari F40 and the GTO caught my eye. The bikes look pretty good aswell. I have not touched any of the new clothes or furniture and I haven't bought anything. In my opinion, it was really stupid to give us 3 bikes, but not one of them is free! I don't care about the cars costing money as we do have cars in the game already. Can't really judge the new sounds either as I didn't like them before and didn't like them after the patch.

         

        They have added several car shops to the islands and most of the new dealerships have old cars with an addition of a few DLC cars (including the preorder ones). This has created some confusion as people have thought that they removed the standard models of the preorder cars alltogether (which is not the case). What's more lovely than walking into a dealership and seeing 4 different Veyrons in a row? :lol:

         

        Garage spot management is a minor update, I don't need it that much (so I didn't test it either) but it basically works by going to the list in the garage and then it asks you whether you wanna see your car list or move cars. I never realized how the headlight control feature worked, the flash lights button still flashes the lights (though this time the rearlights also light up, just like they do when it becomes dark) and there wasn't anything like it added in the controls. Not that I'd care that much anyways.

         

        I thought the instant island change worked by going to the pause menu and choosing it there or something. Instead we got the option to change the island by selecting the airport from the map and instead of "Go there" you can choose "Fly to Hawaii/Ibiza". Minor improvement, could have lived without this too but still, better than nothing.

         

        Bike handling is quite much like TDU1's, though I only tested them once so I might be wrong too :lol: Damn that Harley would be a great cruiser though.

         

        Then we come to the big question; car handling after the FFB improvements. It's still obviously horrible. But now they have apparently removed the last bits of drivability. When going into the game, the wheel is just dead. Only things you can feel are the side of the road and crashes/bumps because they're vibration effects. I don't know what they wanted with the FFB improvements but they only made things worse. Even the center spring of my Fanatec GT2 decided to not like the game and turned itself off. If ANYONE is thinking of making the same mistake as I did (downloading ages at 20kbps just to test the "wheel improvements"), do NOT bother.

         

        On a scale of Get it/Consider it/Don't get it, it's definitely Don't get it. Waiting for TDU3 by SMS...
