I wasn't really aware of the latest things going on about the TDU Paradise, i randomly visited Speeders blog and i saw the last post 2 years ago. My mistake is that i did not search the whole forum if there was a topic about the Edge's article too. My intention was to share it with people who, like me, may have not seen that yet. Along with that i felt like saying my story too. Probably i could have made that thread with a welcome title... Just removed TDU DVD from the shelf, cleaned it up and set it for a clean new installation ;) Thread can be closed, see you online the sooner.

Hello community! Tonight i have been missing a lot the old times cruising the Oahu island with friends i met there. The Mustang Saleens bodykit, the Jaguar's XKR V8 sound, the menace of the Ford GT stage 3 tuned, the 2.6secs for zero to 60mph with the Z06 with manual gearbox + clutch +steering wheel. Ahhh it had been a good time actually! I have been a player of San Andreas Multiplayer (SA:MP) for over 6 years, i have understood the reversed engineering concept iKey07 (the developer) went throught to make it happen for GTA SA. I, my self realised TDU1 needed to be reversed coded with private servers being coded by users at home. I wanted and still want to learn more than the basics of coding to make it happen. My tonight's research came up with Speeder's (that French-pretending-tobe-developing) TDU: Paradise Online project and it his word "s00n" was very promising... until i realised he posted that back in 2012... ughh! Well, i feel like i am a bit happy because not only us-the users of the game were disappointed, but main developers from Atari/Eden as well. The "Edge-Online.com" has a post that describes the story of the TDU1's producer Ahmed Boukhelifa, director Stephane Beley and Eden CFO Emmanuel Oualid. Link: The Eden project: why The Crew creator Ivory Tower quit Test Drive Unlimited 2 to start all over again | Features | Edge Online I am sure many of you have already read this though. It's a very interesting story and can show the values of ethics, beliefs, strength and risk, freedom and generally the do-what-the-phack-you-want-in-life! I was one of you that BETA tested TDU2, complained about the physics and the steering wheel/clutch problems. Though i bought it when ti came out, fooling my self Atari would have heard of our complains. Sortly after my onlien save got corrupted i gave up. I was one of you who would play TDU1 on the weekends, do some easy cruises on Hawai, and race some fools with groups A's against my Z06, my RS4 or even my Cobra Daytona in the corners and hills for easy money. Ughh god i miss those days. Now i am older than i used to be back that time. Now i am 20, then i was 13. Though i am going to spend the money needed to get The Crew as soon as it is released! :rolleyes:
