Who still plays Test Drive Unlimited?

[rockinatmidnight]

I've recently started playing this and have remembered how good it was, despite the handling not beign up to forza/racepro standards?
GT: the one armed s
If anyone is interested bung me an add!

[Z06George]

As long as your talking about xbox 360 add me EnglishManOWar as I'm the head of the Pistonheads club on tdu.

I don't think I could go back to playing it after the delights of Race Pro's handling I think I racked up 60 hours on it back in November 2006, but when I tried it with the steering wheel, baby Jesus squeezed out the back of my Xbox and started crying little sheep tears. Then I downloaded the 'realism' handling pack, and Jesus smacked his shin on a coffee table. Not fun.

[rockinatmidnight]

Yeh the 'handling' pack is terrible, understeer understeer understeer OVERSTEER tree dead!

I've jut bought Hardcore mode and I must say, with the wheel it is fantastic!

Had some good hoons with George before - looking forward to seeing some more of you lot in Hawaii!

[rockinatmidnight]

for whatever reason it isn't letting me add people to my friends list!

[Mr Whippy]

The hardcore physics mode makes it really good, but the problem then is that the lump roads become a real hinderance to smooth driving at all.

If they had smoothened the roads out, and made hardcore mode a toggle for your entire profile, then it'd have made the game much much more impressive... (and sorted out all the little technical issues and lame sounds on some cars )

Rod and I are both online at the moment if anyone is about?

BTW - sorry about crappy driving, trying to learn drifting matey

I've been playing this recently. Only just bought it TBH.

Works well with the wireless wheel if you turn the "linearity" adjustment thing quite far down, otherwise it's floaty as hell to the point of being really tricky to keep in a straight line at 150mph.

I am really enjoying the races where you need to finish within a time, but bumping cars gives you a time penalty. It's like going for a proper hoon, except with dying switched off.

Feel free to add me - TheCaseAce. Dont know how it works multiplayer - not even looked at that yet.

[TimmyWimmyWoo]

I'm just going for a cruise for the first time in about a year. If you see TimmyWimmyWoo stuck into a tree, make your presence known!

[rockinatmidnight]

No worries matey!

I'll have a mic this evening and will be up for some mass PH hooning!

I've sent you an invite to join club "pistonheads". Once you accept it we will be able to meet at the PH clubhouse and set off from there.

[Z06George]

Might be up for a hoon later but it might be late by the time I'm on as I'll be playing COD5 with MK4 Slowride. If your still around i'll find you.

[rockinatmidnight]

I'm on justnow iif anyone is interested?

[Drebin]

I'm thinking of buying this again seeing as I'm getting an Xbox again (RROD sorted the last one out after about a week so I didn't bother getting another), so if there's any spaces left in the PistonHeads club, I'd love to join.
How many car packs are there available?

[KENZ]

i'm surprised a second has not been released.. I really likes it..Pity about the lack of BMW's though

[Z06George]

Hi, there are still loads of places in the club. Just post up your GT and either ih8thisname or I will send you an invite.

[Ricepilot]

GT - Ricepilot

[rescynic]

GT rescynic

should be hooning around in a couple of hours or so.

[Steameh]

I might pop on a bit later tonight, if you see someone called Steamf who has buried it in to a tree, give me a friendly honk.
