Welcome to turboduck guys and girls!

Eudemon · October 24, 2012

However, I think a general explanation is in order.

- What is turbo duck?

- What is the forum focused around now?

- *Insert more questions*

I'll update the original post with a more detailed answer and history later but for now. :)

1) turboduck is a brand new community all about the various driving and racing games that people enjoy. We are no longer a title focussed community due to the demise and abysmal support and handling of the sequel to the series we were once dedicated to and all looked forward to with huge excitement. That's not the only reason of course, there are so many better titles (Forza Horizon, Most Wanted, pCARS, Assetto Corsa etc) coming out that are being properly supported while others are being left to wither and die. So why try and survive on scraps of information and hear-say for years when there are other titles that we all enjoy and are looking forward to!

2) Any and all driving and racing games that are enjoyed basically.

3) I'll insert more answers if more questions appear. :D

But nice work Diablo and co.! Lovely!

Cheers!

Needs an actual 'turboed' duck.

Other than that I actually like the new look. And I turned up to witness the change just in time ;)

Been really busy for the last few days (read: weeks) so I haven't had too much time to visit the forums. Was surprised (pleasantly or not, dunno) when I saw that the forum was being upgraded. Like with every upgrade, the new outfit will take some time to get used to but overall it's looking super-sleek and I like it! Nice one guys :)

This is honestly the best update ever!

Maybe it's because we dumped Atari, or maybe it's just the new design, but it's looking great :p

Need a referrer checker to see if people come here via TDU2.com and then redirect them to an Atari sucks page, or to GrahamTheGoat's twitter page.

Thanks mate, glad you like it.

:hmmm: That is doable but could I be that :evil: ? :susp:

iNotACactus · October 24, 2012

Yes you could. :bow:

TIMELESS · October 24, 2012

Yes. :nods:

Ryzza5 · October 24, 2012

Fine, just redirect them to a thread/announcement that begins by saying 'We noticed you've been visiting TDU2.com and must warn you that...." :)

Eudemon · October 24, 2012

Maybe if the forum ever comes back I'll consider it.

Camel · October 24, 2012

So we should consider it considerably considered?

iNotACactus · October 24, 2012

Absolutely.

Djey · October 25, 2012

Nice work,all ! And good luck to turboduck :)

@tom read the op

OP Doesn't explain much, hence my post.

Tom pay more attention in future. Turboduck was discussed months ago

I don't visit here as often; am I obliged to visit every day so that I can keep up on news (mostly posted in CB)? Isn't it acceptable to ask a few questions explaining the massive change, like I did?

Just because I'm not visiting everyday like some people, doesn't mean I'm any less dedicated... I just have more important things going on in my life at this current point in time.

I'll update the original post with a more detailed answer and history later but for now. :)

Excellent explanation, I now understand what's going on :P

ScoobSTi · October 27, 2012

Posts about making a new forum were actually in a thread a while ago, so it's not like everyone would've known.

Anyway, in a nutshell, this is what happened:

1) We </3 Atari/Eden

2) A mutiny formed

3) Here we are now

iNotACactus · October 27, 2012

Or in memetical terms:

1. Tell Atari to go away

2. Make new forum that looks awesome

3. ???

4. Profit
