TDU1 Online Pursuit - Police Bookmarks


If you have ever played any classic racing game featuring police chases, you'll know that the AI cops can keep spawning ahead of you even after you've left them in your dust.

 

In Test Drive Unlimited, with the right group of friends, you can recreate numerous game modes, such as police chases.

A Bookmarks file has been prepared for a group of friends to use so that those playing the role of police can jump ahead of the player they are chasing in case they fall behind.  This requires that the suspect stick to a predefined route along the east coast of O'ahu.  The route is approximate 74 km (46 mi). The route allows police to predict where the suspect will go before jumping ahead, but there are a few locations where the suspect might deviate slightly to avoid their pursuers.  The suspect should losely follow the route shown and not travel completely in the wrong direction, such as toward Honolulu or toward the center of the island.

Police players who jump ahead using the Pause Menu > Bookmarks > List > selection bookmark will not disconnect from other players they have already 'Locked' to, as long as they don't bring up the Map screen by mistake.  They can then form roadblocks by pushing traffic, for example:

  6. Launch Test Drive Unlimited and test the bookmarks.

Suggestions for a Successful Police Chase

  • Don't use Hardcore mode, especially if some players are already using Normal mode.  Normal-mode cars feel much heavier than hardcore-mode cars which creates an imbalance.
  • Agree in advance the conditions for when a suspect is deemed to be caught. For example, they might have to be stuck long enough for someone to type a message in text-chat.
  • Agree in advance the conditions for a suspect resetting their car back to the road when nearly caught. This includes if the suspect car flips and is automatically reset by the game. Perhaps instigate a 3-second time penalty the suspect must wait after resetting before driving off. 
  • Agree in advance if suspects must be caught one time or perhaps 3 times along the route.
  • Agree in advance the destination the suspect must reach to win.
  • If you catch a player, don't pause to take a photo too quickly.  Your car will ghost and the suspect may escape.

That's a brilliant idea.  The last time we played was on ‎22 ‎August ‎2009, ‏‎12:04:13 on a Saturday because I still have the screenshots

 too, woohoo!

I've still got the game installed and bumped into Rebuilda a couple of weeks ago.  I hope you guys are doing well and enjoying life.
