how you mean that
we all wont play this agme but the half of as hasn't the client
the keyi already got from you Very Happy Very Happy


OMFG it seems that it's really delayed until the 2march
got the info form tdu central:

Wie die PC Games mitteilt, hat Atari soeben mitgeteilt, dass der Release der PC-Version von TDU auf den 2. März 2007 verschoben worden ist. Ursprünglich war der Release für den 15. Februar geplant. Genauere Gründe sind nicht bekannt, ob es mit dem verspäteten Release der Open Beta zusammenhängt, ist unbekannt.

Die Angaben decken sich allerdings mit den Vorgaben einiger Internet-Händler wie amazon.de, die schon seit einigen Tagen den 2. März als Veröffentlichungsdatum angeben.

I'll re-post my question as the ports I had found were for XBox Live... Duh.

So, anybody knows what ports I should forward to my local IP in order to have Test Drive Unlimited work online?

The file is encrypted? No its not. I just used Winrar and bam extracted. Second if any of you subscribers could download the torrent file and add yourself as a seeder about 105 people could use that. Since its 10:30 AM now i've uploaded about 1 Gig so far since 3 AM.

Now about the game. There are so many things that turned out different from what I was imaginging in my head. The entire intro sequence I feel is un needed and a waste of time. Calling the physics wierd is a understatement as the cars feel as though they have no physical connection to the road. Instead of your car losing grip from the tires being exhausted at high speed the vehicles just float away on clouds.

My god, who ever did the modeling for the human characters needs his fucking eyes ripped out. Every character looks like a confused life-less robot.

As for the cops, don't even get me started....

The two things this game does decently at all are wheel spin and braking distance thats it. I thought I would love the interior view but it feels extremely cramped to me and you lose advantage of seeing ahead on the mostly right angle turns.

Performance is mediocre. You guys with mid to lower end hardware that supports SM3 will have no choice but to turn off HDR as it boosts my framerate by about 40% leaving it off. The bad part is without HDR the game looks rather bland and they implemeneted it for a reason because of all the different levels of light you drive around in. Second the game is one of the MOST prone to aliasing I have ever seen in my life. It looks horrendous without AA but turning it on again another huge performance hit. Don't even think about AA+HDR unless you've got a 8 series card because for me on my 1900XT it was as though i was squirming around the roads as a slug. This sucks because this game thrives off a sense of speed and the 20-30 fps it runs at, 140mph doesn't look too fast. (Im using Vista, lets hope we can blame the performance on the drivers, but I doubt it.)

Oh yeah and as of last night, there were 0 players online then 1 then 2 and then 0 again and as I tried to get there attention by honking in their cars face and ramming into them they did not respond, BOTH were AFK so I was alone on the entire Island.

Now for a few good things so far.

I've driven 130MPH for a LONG time and got no where. The island is MUCH larger then i expected, you can drive on and on and on for a pretty long time and still have tons of road to go. The menu's and map are intuitive and easy to navigate, especially the full screen map that lets you access everything on the fly. There is a aspect of exploration almost like an RPG where you need to drive around to find stuff at the start of the game. Load time are practically non-existant. The engines sound wonderful as they rev through their powerbands. The motion blur is done very tastefully, only at the edge of the screen by your peripheral vision.

I can't think of anything else. I'll play some more and add to it.

Many thanks Krazy for what is an intelligent and thoughtful post.

This is what I have been looking for all day, some level of feedback about the game, whilst I sit here with fuc**ng fileplanet speeding along at 15Kb/s - what an amazing service they provide, so glad I paid for my subscription... can't wait to cancel Wink

I have read a few reports of the handling model being 'light' on this game. This is such a shame to be honest, it has so much going for it what with the size of the island and the freedom that comes with it - but the handling is the core, if that's not right the game is going to suffer....
