Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown

The game doesnt work for more then 20 minutes and starts crashing, i really like the handling and graphics of the game, kinda feels dead compared to the previous titles, your aimlessly wandering around the city till you crash. Fix the game maybe ill consider trying it again

Lo tuve del primer dia y tuve problemas lo deje durante un tiempo y se me clava el juego no lo recomiendo. Mal optimizado el juego y tengo 4080RTX

Apesar de continuar com a jogabilidade engessada comparado ao seu principal concorrente, merece crédito por ter melhorado bastante em relação à última edição, e curiosamente me ajuda na performance em jogos com a física mais realista. No final, consigo me divertir bastante. Mas gosto de jogar sozinho

Ce jeux est realiste et j ai passe de tres bon moment dessus avec mon pote, je lyk ce jeux

overall good game wish there where more cars but its super fun to play

говнище, лучше бы в ремастер первой части поиграл. графика дно, оптимизация такая же, физика хуже чем в форзе будто, а игра прям косит под нее. В общем после корсы... 2/10

[h2]A work-in-progress review of Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown[/h2] [h3][b]TL;DR[/b] - For those who enjoy driving around, cruising the highways, enjoying the road... TDU Solar Crown offers an experience not so different from the driving in something like Euro/American Truck Sim. But with cars.[/h3] [b][u]The Long[/u][/b] Take my thoughts, opinions and remarks as if they were a very large chunk of salt. These are thoughts and opinions based on my first 10 hours of playing the game, which is not much in comparison with the type of game where one will spend hundreds and thousands of hours. One cannot come across TDU:SC and not notice the low rating. So, why am I recommending it? Here are the two reasons, that include some context: 1. I have no real prior experience, or expectations, from having played previous titles. Last time I played a Test Drive, it was 5... sometime around 1999-2000. And that was a couple hours at most. Never played any of the Unlimited series of TD, can't remember if I might have tried a demo of the first TDU, probably. 2. I have always prefered games within the 'simulation' category; such as Gran Turismo, Euro/American Truck Simulator and the occasional bus/train sim. TDU:SC has the driving dynamics I enjoy. Not too sim, but enough for me to like it. So, here is a short list of pros and cons: +++++ Driving Physics: I enjoy the driving dynamics/physics. While not a full-on sim game, it has what I would consider more 'realistic' driving. Appropriate braking is important, or else you will def feel that front end understeer. None of the NFS shennanigans with weird tap-the-brake-to-drift kind of bs either. No game is perfect in how it recreates cars dynamics, but this game gets the basics right. The offroading gravel parts are surprisingly good! Those feel quite realistic. It kind of jumped at me how good that part is. ++++ Large-ish Free-Roam Map: A nicely detailed landscape with various types of locales. You have some run-down city sections, main boulevards, highways and some off-road sections. There is a good verticality and also decent stretches of road. I find the layout interesting. Although, it remains to be seen if the size is "enough", only time will tell. ++++ Good detail to cars: Not only in terms of appearance, but also enjoy how you have control over blinkers, hazard lights, windshield wipers, sunroofs and windows. This is part of the charm of the games I enjoy, like the Euro/American Truck Sim games that let you roll down windows and faff around with things most games don't bother with. Yes, I like using my blinkers, even in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game, okay!? +++ Okay selection of cars: Only if you do kind of like the cars on offer; supercars. Lots of the cars in TDU:SC are not really my style; I prefer the type of selection you get in a game like Gran Turismo (not necessarily quantity, but type of car, especially the more "normal" cars). +/- Graphics: When it comes to cars & the general landscape; like the roads, flora and infrastructure, the game looks pretty darn good. But, I am scratching my head at some other parts of this game. I've always understood that TDU series is kind of a social game. It's more about lifestyle and owning cars and homes and impressing others. It's all fine and dandy, but TDU:SC seems like it completely dropped the ball when it comes to the design of characters. The lighing system looks great on cars, not so much on the "people". Feels like a game that is 20 years behind in that department. +/- Music (Radio Stations): This part feels so underwhelming. The radio stations feel so damned bland and boring. Look, as someone who doesn't even like rap/hip-hop, I was always amazed at how good the old Need for Speed games could get me hooked into that style of music when I played their games. Same goes for various EA sports games (fifa/nhl) that have amazing soundtracks (for the most part). TDU:SC radio music is absolute boring and bland and lacks any character. The rock is underwhelming, the club stuff is boring, the rap/hip-hop does NOT make me want to hear it... I end up putting the classical station, as that is the only one I sort of like. --/+ Character Customizations: What char customization? You have a few plastic-looking wigs that fit on the same 3 female, or same 3 male bodies. They just have a slider for skin tone and a few facial sliders. Underwhelming. - Ai Traffic: So-so, but with some weird quirks. Sometimes you are following some cars and they suddenly brake for a fraction of a second, for no reason. Happens a lot. Sometimes wish there was a little more traffic as well. Especially in the city. Feels kind of dead. --- Limited Car Selection: I guess this will depend on what kind of cars you like. There are lods of modern supercars, which seems to be what these games are about owning. Give me classics, or give me rare cars. I don't care if they aren't powerful.. just give me more choice. ----- Car Dealerships: UGLY AS HECK! I don't feel like I walk into a dealership. I feel like I am walking into a chain of saudi arabian-designed hotel trying to look expensive. Hey! You've got dealerships for classic cars, british cars, american cars, asian cars, ferrari, lambo, etc... and all dealerships look the same. None have any vibe or character relating to the type type of car, or the manufacturer. This part is where the game starts feeling like cheap asset flip slop. Like they found an asset for a building where you can insert cheap low-res jpegs into it, and plopped it into the game. When I walk into a dealership, I don't even feel like buying a car. It's ugly AF and I just want to walk out. While the main part of the game, driving, is pretty good.. I can't help but feel that sense of a game being made in in one of the very corporate politically-friendly environments that was sanitized and quota-filling for checking boxes on a list. You have two clans to join, the Street and the Sharp. They feel like the type of thing you see in a modern Bethesda game. The Sharp are the "elite". Technically, they are just rich snobs. You can RP them as if they were the illuminati, or free masons. The Street are wannabe woke hipsters. It's a corporate version of what being "rebellious" is. Politically-correct rebellious. I enjoy the driving, but the whole clan thing makes me want to ignore it all. [h3][b]In Conclusion[/b] TDU:SC is mainly for those who enjoy driving around, cruising the highways, enjoying the road... It offers an experience not so different from the driving in something like Euro/American Truck Sim. But, with cars.[/h3]

Quite a good surprise ! Yeah it's flawed and it's not a triple-A, but it's quite the refreshing take from wheelspins and free hypercars. Game is poorly optimized sure, but now runs decently and smooth. Sound design is very good, most of cars sound real and the reverb is great. At discount price, it's a really cool cruise and chill cruiser car game.
