XBOX360 | Test Drive Unlimited - The Official Thread

[Tom Scott]

Time for initial comments - I've got an S3 other people have McLarens, Ford GTs et al. You can't compete... I've not found a single race with just people in my class

Vini I've added you to my friends list....

Also starting the HEXUS club will cost someone... are you ready... $350,000!!!

Thanks for taking time away from the game to, shall we say, blog on this fine thread.

That is the only bad thing about games like this, people always insist on having rediculously fast cars to pump their e-penis ( - coming from me )

What fun are slow cars in a racing game ? They just mean you can replace HP with skill.

i did 8 miles on the demo and i got stressed with the whole game... but, i still went and bought the full thing... grr, i do this all the time!

its taken me a bit to get into, but i've had a blast and have a few niggles..

- you cant reverse from stationary
- its sooooo slow to react/try and reverse
- handlings a pos
- the maps too big! (ive driven 59 miles corner to corner, taking 45 mins and didnt 'achieve' anything!)
- ive had 3 or so cars 'drop' on me whilst driving

dont get me wrong its not all bad, theyre just the niggles that bug me.

i've done a few races, earned a few achievements and im not giving my eyes a rest, especially after driving 60 miles

will hopefully catch more people on it tomorrow/we.

Bah jealous now, my copy is still in the post

Ok, they've made one MASSIVE mistake in this game, and that putting the police in it... its basically impossible to get rid of them if you get over 2 badges on you, I've just lost all my money due to it. I'm not happy, infact its made me want to just not bother with the game at all.

Use the GPS to instantly take you to places, whether they are races, garages, or your mates online as I recently discovered

[Tom Scott]

I'm also now not getting anyone on screen at all from online... I've not changed any settings and TDU servers are showing as "available".

Right found a bug then, if you xbox live connection drops and you resign in you'll need to restart the game, not just go to main menu as the game tells you too

Is this worth parting with £40/£50 for? Ive heard so many bad things about it but it still looks good...

Cheers

YES - I was hacked off I lost all my money yesterday, did a courier mission driving an Enzo to a garage and got $80k in my bank straight away again.

Best 360 game by far in my opinion, I've not even put Dead Rising back in the drive since I got it.

That only works if you've driven to the locations first.

I managed to shrug 2 solid badges & a half... but due to it not being very responsive when setting off/trying to reverse the pigs seem to nab you pretty much every time. Sucks!





How do we get these 2 locked cars then?

[e!] Ahh i see, My manual doesnt got a code. Cant have been within the first 150k copies.
