Well, the game runs great for me.

[X8X8X]

How? This game is terribly optimised for PC.

My laptop (i7-4700MQ @ 2,4 GHz, 16 GB DDR3, NVidia, GeForce GT740M 2 GB) doesn't manage to run this game on HD-resolution. At 720p-resolution the game barely runs at the locked 30 FPS - which determines the speed of my car!

I so hope they will fix this!

Yeah see, my desktop is i5-3330 @ 3.0 GHz, 8GB DDR3 and HD Radeon 8670 1GB and I'm literally running the same as you, I get 25 FPS on the lowest settings.

[Loz]

I very rarely have troubles with PC games, they just work for me. The only one i've ever had any slight trouble running properly is AC4, but that was beacuse my GFX card was a bit outdated for the game.

Yesss NDA has been lifted :thumbsup:

 

I will upload that TDUDT & Tduck Tag Team Take Out later :D

 

Woo!

 

Here's my running playlist of my videos of The Crew if anybody's interested: Dailymotion Playlist

 

Currently 9 cruising videos with 6 more coming later (those will probably be my last).

Is there any way to disable player mics/chat? A lot of people have them and they are obnoxiously loud and annoying.

[X8X8X]

"F" - "Enter" on your name - "disable voices".

You have to do it every time the game starts.

Got my Focus maxed out with all level 10 gold parts. :D

 

Now time to get the dirt parts. :hmmm:

Yes, there is

 

I had to search for it as well. Nothing beats French logic i suppose :D

 

In your popup phone there is a Roster function

If you press that you will see all people in your current session

 

Click on your own name and disable voice

 

PS You will have to do that every thime you start the game. :susp:

Lucky you, you found a car worth tuning.

The "little" car-list isn't a problem anymore thanks to the little money one earns (pay:twisted:to:twisted:win), but all the cars I'd like to buy (the American muscles) are ridiculously expensive...

post scriptum: the Hot Rod is epic though! I dropped something like 30.000$ on tuning it (different styles)...

Something i'd love to do is be able to map Upshift/Downshift to B/X on my 360 controller. Can't do it in the options apparently.

Yea that annoyed me at first but it's not too bad once you get used to it. Although I wish the gear changes were faster.

Anyone got a constant flickering? It happens every 10 - 15 seconds and the screen looks like if someone is waving a magnet around the screen for a moment.

 

Tried to play around with the GFX settings but it does not go away. Its a brief moment so its barely noticable but once seen it cannot be unseen.

[Paladin Skylark]

The set after this will be with Tim and Santtu :)

This seriously hurting me :hd:

 

One thing I've noticed is that there is not true free camera mode and that is bugging some people.

[T1M]

 

boring video lol but yeah pretty long drive just to get from NY to Chicago :eek:

 

Was in the middle of doing one from LV to LA but the servers went poop

[The Compensator]

So how's the game, guys? Better or worse than you expected?

[Paladin Skylark]

Considering I had very low expectations (TDU2 was haunting me so low expectations are good) it's better than I thought.

It's not perfect, but it feels VERY similar to TDU and to me, that is a very good thing.

[BeSweeet]

So how's the game, guys? Better or worse than you expected?

 

It's about what I was expecting. Nice large world with interesting handling for casual cruises.

I should probably make a quip about how terrible it must be if I cannot even boot it; but all this complaining is wearing even me out.

[T1M]

It's better than what I expected, the handling is nice, the map is huge, the graphics are sweet and there's some epic customization. 10/10 wud buy

So how's the game, guys? Better or worse than you expected?

 

- map: astonishing

- graphics and sound: great

- handling: good (strange when driving fast in a straight line)

- multiplayer: buggy (closed beta)

- story: ok (very hard to earn money)

- performance: terrible (no way of running it at lowest settings in HD @ locked 30 FPS with my good laptop - car-speed determined by FPS)

 

I expected it to be great, and it is. The terrible PC-performance has to be sorted out before I buy it though!

I like what I'm seeing so far looks fun.

[TDUZoqqer]

OMG I hope it will be modding-friendly soon after release. Well, if it will be moddable at all. Not that it looks bad, but I need the thrill :cheeky:

[MadManCK]

Earlier today, Ryzza and I teamed up for some American Take Out. This is what happened :D

 

 

PS We drive both on Hardcore mode and those Raid specs are really good to drive through everything, but also a handfull to drive. This makes the challenge even bigger :cool:

You can also see some weird movements of the Ford, because Ryzza was hosting this race and we live on different sides of the Planet. Lots of fun, but we need gold next time :D
