Atari Banning TDU Cheats.

[Eudemon]

UPDATE #2: 13th July 2007

 

I actually have a time for the release as well, but I won't get that far just in case there is a 5 minutes delay ;)

 

It's all stamped and approved, I would turn very green if it didn't happen.

 

On the other hand, you know what it means. The banning is starting. There's been plenty of notice, please no complaints if your account gets banned for removing the poor birdies.

 

 

This was posted 2 days ago, surprised noones mentioned it yet:

 

To protect the community of committed and responsible Test Drive Unlimited PC players' date=' starting in the coming weeks Atari will permanently and completely ban players found cheating and playing illegally. This process will begin following the release of the PC patch, at which point all PC rankings will be reset to clean the PC score database. As a special exclusive gift to all PC players, two brand new cars will be included with the patch completely free; the Audi RS4 and Nissan Skyline R34.[/quote']

[The Queen]

[HavockJoker]

This is messsed up the Skyline wheel is on the wrong side. How could TDU do this. They should have put it on the right side, the car is right side drive so do it properly.:wtf:

bleep I better put that traffic folder back in

 

they should make sure traffic is smarter instead, the only reason I took trafic out is because its annoying as hell

 

 

I could care less about online rankings, I have instant challenges disabled from the moment I stepped online

[ShadowGT]

I leave challenges on. Nothing like suckering a noob out of $10,000 :D

If there reseting the scores does this mean that were all going to be amateurs or will we keep our rank?

[ScaR]

You will keep your level, just online rank will be reset.

If it's offline then I think that's ok but if you go online the server will detect it and could ban you.
