Why the frag didn't they've sent the game to Eden Games. After all, they've managed to save themselves from ATARI's clutches....Shame that they've couldn't get the IP, too...

Cool, I wonder if I can finally dye my beard in two different colors I also hope that they fix the swimming pool physics. And maybe add a public transport system, getting to the venues is really dangerous, some people drive recklessly around in their cars.

These guys usually have good-ish intentions and they're capable of learning from their mistakes (like it happened with the WRC series), but it's difficult to be optimistic as long as the obsolete KT engine and fairly limited physics will be there. They should just follow Milestone's path, by ditching ancient tech and focusing on something more appropriate that doesn't reek of el cheapo. Razz

And instead use Unreal Engine? Vomit Laughing

But I agree, Milestone games are more serviceable than Kylodurrs.

Haha yup, sadly it seems like there aren't many alternatives around and UE4 is the best compromise for non-tripeA companies. Kunos did the same, although things were more difficult than expected and some issues (including the performance-related ones) haven't been fixed yet. I honestly don't like it either since it's also not mod-friendly, but it would still be an improvement over what we have now Sad Laughing

If TDU3 does to TDU2 what TDU2 did to TDU1, I simply expect 3D SexVilla Las Vegas with driving physics based on submarines.

What a failure of a game that turned out to be. ACC looks worse than AC with mods, runs like a pig on the same computers and is locked down in typical UE fashion, so that no mods can be added to it. Absolute garbage.

Here is an overview of the game, via KT Racing creative director Alain Jarniou:
Quote:
You may recall that the ā€œSolar Crownā€ is the name of the competition we had in the previous Test Drive Unlimited game. We wanted to ruse this name and the championship’s concept, which is not a closed championship where the player is restricted to doing certain things. We wanted to give players a variety of things to do and the freedom to progress through the game however they want. So we developed the new Test Drive Unlimited concept by keeping the DNA of the game, but also evolving the gameplay and game modes to make them more modern and more in line with current trends and what today’s players find fun.

I know the Test Drive Unlimited franchise really well because I worked on the first Test Drive Unlimited, Test Drive Unlimited 1. I also worked on Test Drive Unlimited 2. And we wanted to relaunch this great franchise because there’s no real equivalent at the moment. It’s a game that players really love, a game made for fans that is making a comeback today thanks to KT Racing and Nacon. This new Test Drive Unlimited is benefiting from all of KT Racing’s expertise in motor racing. This includes the physics engine used to drive the car, derived from our experience creating the entire WRC series, which helped us develop an engine that can reproduce very diverse driving conditions, whether it’s gravel, asphalt, etc.


When I play Test Drive Unlimited, I obviously want to buy a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or Bugatti, so it’s a unique world in terms of the cars you can buy and also in terms of your avatar, for which you have lots of customization options, like luxury clothes and accessories, to add more realism to Test Drive Unlimited, which is important for authenticity and the game experience. I like to go to places that exist in the game world. So everything you can see, you can visit. My goal is to indulge my passion for cars with the car fan community at full throttle.


When does Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown release? I can’t give you a precise date right now, because we ant to spend time perfecting the game, improving the technology and game experience, and listening to the fan community after the game’s announcement so we can make Test Drive Unlimited as great as possible.

Nothing new to see or hear. It's the exact same information as the teaser above and the content from https://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3295304#3295304. How embarassing...
