Nice game Smile
Finally I can play online though it's a bit of a problem finding multi player races. Many times it just tells me "Lobby Unavailable" for some reason :/

Btw: my name in-game is Hashz0r, I hope to see you guys there Smile

Hey, Hey, Hey, now that's crossing the line. They couldn't differentiate 100 different cars handling characteristics at all! Let alone have the Lambo's not do a rear wheel drive burnout! MotoGP handling is asking too much! Laughing

Hello guys.

I have the TDU open beta since his release and i am really happy with the game. I really like it, but people with a 3 year-old PC will get stressed with the lag.

I have a P4 3,1 GHZ, XFX 6600GT 128MB and 1GB RAM and i get 7-8 FPS in some parts of the city (not all entire map). Do anyone has the same problem?

PS: I know it is beta, but sucks if it lags in a CPU with more than 2ghz.

First time I tried the beta it ran pretty well. Cutscenes ran smoothly.
So I closed it down, plugged in the wheel and ran the game again. Totally unplaybale. Runs like shit in cutscenes and such. While driving it floats good as long as I sit still in the car and just watch the scenery. As soon as I try to drive really slow (8km/h), it starts jerking every 3-4 seconds. Try to go faster than that, and it's jerk-o-mania de la grande!
Unplugged the wheel, did a clean install of windows xp (had to for other reasons anyway) on a newly low level formatted drive (so it can't be fragmentation of the drive) and still the same shit. With or without wheel.
Could have disregarded it all as crappy specs if it hadn't run so well first time I tried the goddamn beta! Evil or Very Mad

Yeah, I wanted to give that car a try but not anymore since it will be the same as the other 100 cars except it's accel and top speed will be different.

I wanted to try the Lambo Countach too but that's not in the beta either.

No need for handbrakes Laughing Just turn the car you get the same effect!

The online racing part of the game actually works, once you figured it out. Doesn't matter in which yellow thingy you drive in you see all the races in the non ranked/ranked selection and once you host, you can select any track. Couldn't somehow limit the classes that were allowed, they were grayed out, but you can select driving aid level that has to be used (really nice feature) and collision on/off (off is only option as there are many peeps who lag).

But G glass, between friend and collision and without driving aids some twisty track/piece of road should be enough challenging and fun Smile

Must either be something with your (you others too) driver. I would think it wasnt optimized for Ati, but i hear people have problem with the geforce 6000 series too.

It's wierd, back when I had the card I could do 1280x1024 4xAA and 8xAF with HDR and it would be super smooth. As soon as I would go to 1600x1200 AA and HDR together is no good and setting either of them on drops the framerate to single digits.

1280x1024 High, 4xAA+HDR = 45-60fps
1600x1200 Low, NoAA+NoHDR = 25fps

^strange? I would say so. But I figured it had to do with memory bandwidth and HDR's performance is based a lot on bandwidth.

For a while I thought it was a performance bug Laughing

So I played it windowed at a lower res because fullscreen at non native res on this LCD looks like ass.

Currently a proud owner of 17" CRT and planning on getting 19 incher. LCDs are pathetic for gaming. With CRT I see games in a real 32 bit colors, they look awesome in every res, it's a real 4:3 format, not some stretched bullshit (yes every LCD monitor is fucking stretched, even WS ones, 1280x1024 is not 4:3 and 1680x1050 is not 16:9). I play games the way they were meant to be played and am not locked to one single resolution choice like some idiot.

Er... Where did you even get the non-subscriber part? The beta forums state that the application regarding the open beta will be shut down Friday 4th. That means the servers will be unavailable to the Open Beta users, so get ready to make your current profile an offline one, or starting over.
