mines piped off from the back of the 360 using a optical straight to the amp

1 hours later and half way, stupid thing.

[fathamburger]

Im very unimpressed with the demo but maybe because I'm using a controller.

 

Handling seems worse than TDU, the graphics are unimpressive and the whole thing seems like a slower higher fidelity version of GT.

2 hours later... 10%... FUNK!

[Pherelas]

Wow yours is wort than mine. I'm at 75% and started at 6 ish.

[YeOldeTDUMan]

mine took about an hour to do ... started 5:30ish

 

Oh possible glitch ... smash a car up and look at the lights ... you can see the ground through them ... either that or they are 'highly' reflective ... oh and I trust in the full game the damage map is going to show the engine in the right place for each car type ...

 

otherwise great demo in my mind ... as per Nipper track could have been a little longer ... but a good selection of varied cars ... and for me a nice surprise with the Porsche Le Mans racer ... if only they had the right Panoz to race against it

[Nipper]

Hybrid, from what you have seen do all the cars conform to Safety Standards :p

[CarMadMike]

i like it but i dont find anything on it special

[Pherelas]

After three hours I didn't think it was that great. The real game better be better. It was good fun and sound was all right but after the hype, no.

hateo say it but mine took 5 minutes ? why is yours so slow ?

[Nige]

I wasn't to impressed TBH !!

 

Hopefully the demo is just like that !!

 

Problems:

 

Track to short

AI too easy

To me control of the car didn't seem all that well (maybe me)

Lack of in car view was a bit annoying !!

 

But as I said hopefully these are only demo problems and not problems on the Released version !!

[Guest Johansen]

mine took like 20-30 min and i started about 11:30 am.

[FA430RGT]

I'm gonna download it tomorrow when I wake up so that'll be around 7 AM ish..

[craigie]

the MSN bit sucks cos i (stupidly) made my account under 18 so i ain't allowed to use it

[TOOL]

Its a pretty good demo, cant wait for the real deal though! Its awesome with the wheel aswell!!!

[ThorpaaayUK]

Am I the only person that got bored/annoyed at the shifting controls (why can it not just be the same, or customizable, to that of TDU?!), and just started crashing my expensive car into that of my competitors, and then deleted the demo within an hour of downloading it? Not overly impressed to be honest, graphics only look a bit more refined than those of the original. Sound of the cars was good though, the best bit for me.

[SupermAnthony]

Shame there's no in car view to really appreciate those sounds though. That was what I liked about TDU, cars like the SLR, DTM AMG, Ford GT, etc. while not sounding accurate sounded great in the cockpit view.

Dunno, i played online for a bit and there was no lag, and i downloaded 3 demos last night... this however, is taking an age.

finally came through at half past midnight :D

 

Its a great game, that i can tell. its going to be hard not buying it though (im holding out for the wheel to be bundled with forza instead of PGR3)

the gearing was pretty annoying at least with the controller but when i changed to my wheel it was so much better, and i drift better with the wheel than i do with the controller, so i recomend everyone to get a wheel its so much more fun:excited:

[Eudemon]

I've been busy with Forzacentral and getting some info and stuff together for show but I'm back now, sorry for the absence. :)

[Guest Johansen]

some nice pics you got there diablo:)

[Pherelas]

I wasn't that impressed with the game untill I plugged my wheel in. Its fantasitic. it dosn't through you off the road like in TDU and is more responsive than PGR3. Wow, can't wait now, gunna try some more cars.

 

I also found out that you need traction in the Zonder R class car, span it on the start grid.

[Hamann M6]

this game should only be played with the steering wheel, using the controller is horrible, you cant feel what the car is doing, i recommend that everyone gets a wheel!!!!!!!

like pherelas, i find drifting easier with the wheel!!! FUN FUN FUN
