With demos, the players don't feel robbed by paying for a "beta" version. The devs can get honest feedback on what's going on with the game and try to improve before launch. Developers can also use the time to make sure that services are available day one, gage excitement, and be ready for an influx of players without server issues hopefully
@@danielredziniak2996 If you want another relevant example, apparently GT Sport added MTX after the launch and so did CTR : Nitro Fueled but I've never heard much about them myself.
One thing I’m noticing is, the wheel isn’t turning full well is it?! It only seems to be turning about 30-45 degrees!! Sure they can change that in the final game right?! 🤔
It's also because he's using a controller, it has simcade physics, so it's always gonna look a little wonky on controller since you can't make fine adjustments 🤷🏼♀️ they can smooth it out a bit, and I'm sure they will, but it'll never be perfect
@@cecilarthur3579 The game comes out in a few months. There is simply no time to do anything significant, all that will change is some minor bugs and performance improvements.
I have played TDU 1 & 2 for a long time, and I am very hyped for this game. Unfortunately, I don't get the same feeling. Where are the driving schools, no houses, no need to explore to find clothing stores and hairdressers because everything is in the hotell and no side quest picking up people on the side of the road. I know it is early and all of this can be added. But it doesn't feel lika a TDU game yet.
I just think this game is super disappointing compared to what it should/could have been. The graphics look really bad if you dont have a high end pc, framerate at about 50 fps for most of the game. The world itself feels super lifeless and loveless (90% of the cars are just one taxi, no pedestrians). As for the car list that will be on the game, I read that theres only going to be about 60 cars on release, which is super disappointing coming from such a title in 2024. And most importantly the core features that really made TDU what it was are mostly missing, so overall im massively disappointed here. On top of all that I really just cant understand how most people are okay with this, as it has been in development for years, even taking one year delay. All in all for the big name of TDU and the technical possibilities in 2024 im just horrified why this is marketed and sold as a triple A title for 60€. I definetly wont preorder this and see how it goes with reviews and changes after release.
The npc's still look funky haha just like the old days, but im very curious to see not going to pre-order just yet. Still hoping for motorcycles aswell.
@@ak47_762_ thanks, I can read too. I'm just stating my opinion of what I saw. Why would you release a demo of sometime that can barely keep a stable fps and looks mid? What impression does that leave on you? I've played the demo too, and I wasnt impressed (point of the demo to be able to make my own mind up). Explains why I've seen pre-orders for £20 in the UK.
Notice the brake lights softly turning on and off where there are halogen bulbs. These are the sort of details that make the visuals smooth and believable for me and really shows they cared
I can't stress enough how imperative, How crucial And? How extremely important it is that these developers add houses and the option to buy real estate in this long awaited sequel. Not only was this THEE staple of the original test drive Unlimited titles but, it seperated Unlimited from the other racers. Even today its the onky game series like it and set the bar for how an open world racer could be. It's a feature that's decades old and should have been implemented and fully included in a Solar Crown in 2024 but, instead they opted for a Hotel. Nothing feels cooler than pulling up to the real estate office in your car, talking to the agent and looking through homes, taking a virtual tour, finally buying one and then LITERALLY DRIVING to your mansion that you saved up to buy, parking in the garage ( garage space and size depending on size of house) and going inside to redecorate and vibe out. Even Club houses were dope for you and your fellow car enthusiasts. Honestly this "Solar hotel" should be a temp location until houses are added. If they never get added its a huge L for the future of TDU.

Crew Motorfest literally had one. But yeah, they're no longer a common occurrence nor at any early stages unless they're conducting private playtests like FM did.

@@stevew1922 I mean it's playable for me with a 3070 at 1440p Ultra with DLSS Quality, like 35 FPS, but at some areas it drops to like 10FPS and I have to drop it to low.

I really hope they lean even more into the social-hub mechanics what other racing games miss. They already have a lot of those features, which is very reassuring! We really need this game in the racing genre, can't wait to get a hold of the full game!

Thank god, epic game launcher is atrocious the only reason I have it is the hundreds of free AAA Titles, that's cool and all but if I'm buying a game I'd rather do it through steam lol
I love this game for its amount of work you have to do to even unlock a car for me. Usually it would be super easy to unlock it you'd like. Need a million or something but here it's actually going to take 200 hours which is actually pretty big but still pretty realistic and when you get that car you always want it. I think it's going to feel so rewarding and I'm quite excited to see what this game can do when it comes out on Xbox. It may or may not, but I hope it does
Game is DOA. Barely anyone can even launch the game properly, and those that can are constantly getting booted from the server. We cant have anything in this genre can we?
@@ak47_762_ The game was delayed several times. 3 months is not much. The game is almost finished. Anyone who can't see that should seriously think about getting glasses...
@@pumba5715Yeah, sure maybe it doesn’t look like a FH5 wasteland, or some paid over exaggerated assetto corsa pure filters that would flashbang everytime you choose the wrong weather and time, but if the gameplay is really nice, do you really care about it? And no it doesn’t take them 12 years for this graphics, they worked this on like 4-5 years ago. I don’t care looking at the car reflections or the detailed mom and pop shop while I’m driving like 200 mph.
Gotta say, when Theo got to play this first time around I was kinda worried of how it will come out because it didn't look as good and the handling was definitely missing (yeah yeah I know it was Alpha but still) but now I can honestly say this is a proper Test Drive Unlimited game. They done proper job introducing us to the true TDU world, and I hope we get to see maybe few easter eggs to older games? So far this looks awesome!
Ngl it kinda makes sense for them to make it only available on steam rn. They know this game is highly anticipated and most streamers use a pc setup. So they are most likely taking notes of streamers playing this game. Bigger audience
i hope by release all cars have their appropriate clusters as you all should remember every tachometer in previous tdu was specific to the car you where driving
I know the game isn't finished but it really has that Free to Play Chinese game look to it. Maybe or hopefully this is a very old build and we'll see a massive improvement in performance and visuals on the release
What would be cool is if they allow you to use pics from the game to be used as wall art in your place. Just a little something to make each room different.
This is sucha good racing game preferably and should be playable offline. The game like other past test drive has so much to offer and explore. I love the series and gladly they still stick up what Test drive actually is. Shame it is ONLINE only. 😕
People whining about the graphics and steering wheel are not real gamers, for a 50€ game it looks pretty good already and they are probably gonna update the hell out of it
I've never played a Test Drive Unlimited game so this will be my first TDU game and looking forward to playing it when it comes out, not gonna pre order it cause I would like to see the game in its actually released
The map screen looks BEAUTIFUL... I feel like a lot of this game looks pretty janky and dated graphics and everything but it looks like it could be really fun so I will give it a shot when the full game drops
Was excited for this one leading up to this demo, glad I decided to give it a try early cause the game is honestly pretty meh. Driving physics are terrible and visually it is far from good. I know its a demo but I don't see much changing in 3 months. Feels more like a passion project from fans making a driving game for the very first time rather than quality AAA driving game.
@@nikolaig1 Character models look entry level PS4 so I almost agree with you there but other than that it looks pretty good. This is also a very early demo build
A video showing some uncommon cars like the alpine would be cool, Mustangs, Corvettes and 350 you see it all the time in racing game, but it's really nice when the devs go out of their way to bring different cars from the norm, it would be interesting to see them and how they handle.
10:20 Could u possibly do a segment in a video covering the different settings, for the graphics and showing which ones are necessary and unnecessary options.
Looks pretty good so far, hopefully they add pedestrians n full cockpit view steering wheel rotation n fov slider. No racing should release without full wheel rotation after motorfest set the tone n did it so nicely‼️
Game ran like ass in the alphas. Game ran like ass in the betas. Game still runs like ass in the demo. The city is dull compared to the other test drives. Always online is garbage. The car sounds are fantastic though. That's it.
the lack of console gameplay is concerning:( - I don’t have the money for a PC right now, and even if I did, I have much more important things to spend the money on, like rent… lol
I’m interested to know how it’ll perform and what it’ll look like on consoles. Because I can only play medium settings to get consistent 60fps on my PC
@@manekisyko4127 that’s not the point. The point is the lack of closed playtests/demos for consoles compared to PC makes me think the console versions aren’t gonna be that great, at least on launch. Maybe they will release a demo for console soon?
They should add the GPS to the screen in the car so you can turn off the UI for interior view That’s something i loved about test drive unlimited 2 and i want it in the new test drive and more interactive interior bits i want to access the music and other car features on the screen i think test drive should get better at more interior interaction
the steering in cockpit is kinda dissapointing but overall looks and sounds good
Yeah Cockpit camera and animations are disapointing but at least sounds are better than in Forza Horizon 4/5
hopefully that changes for the full release
Was gonna comment the same thing
The graphics are also underwhelming
Iconic profile pic 😂
Please let demo's make a comeback
why?
If the demo returns, this could be a big bonus.
With demos, the players don't feel robbed by paying for a "beta" version. The devs can get honest feedback on what's going on with the game and try to improve before launch. Developers can also use the time to make sure that services are available day one, gage excitement, and be ready for an influx of players without server issues hopefully

The map screen looks BEAUTIFUL... I feel like a lot of this game looks pretty janky and dated graphics and everything but it looks like it could be really fun so I will give it a shot when the full game drops
Was excited for this one leading up to this demo, glad I decided to give it a try early cause the game is honestly pretty meh. Driving physics are terrible and visually it is far from good. I know its a demo but I don't see much changing in 3 months. Feels more like a passion project from fans making a driving game for the very first time rather than quality AAA driving game.
They really need to make the idle sound louder🤦♀️ after the car starts up it sounds like an electric car
This game looks so damn good man :)
Looks ps3
@@nikolaig1 Character models look entry level PS4 so I almost agree with you there but other than that it looks pretty good. This is also a very early demo build
A video showing some uncommon cars like the alpine would be cool, Mustangs, Corvettes and 350 you see it all the time in racing game, but it's really nice when the devs go out of their way to bring different cars from the norm, it would be interesting to see them and how they handle.
Is there any police in the game?
Nope, I kinda expected as much from a modern racing game tbh
@@jrtalkin5558 ok thanks
10:20 Could u possibly do a segment in a video covering the different settings, for the graphics and showing which ones are necessary and unnecessary options.
are there pickup missions? like in tdu 1
Its definitely a test drive game with definitely better graphics. I personally cant wait to play this
Downloading it right now
Everyone: This is COOL ! An open world racing game in Hong Kong? About time...
Me: ..... *I'm Wei Shen, Mutha Fucka !*
This looks amazing
Looks pretty good so far, hopefully they add pedestrians n full cockpit view steering wheel rotation n fov slider. No racing should release without full wheel rotation after motorfest set the tone n did it so nicely‼️
The elephant in the room: The game looks horrible and not anything like something that is releasing in 3 months.
Whatever drugs you’re on please share with the class
@@scarface51393played it myself and it looks dogshit even on ultra
@@scarface51393 ask your eye doctor
@@scarface51393thats what i was saying 😂
So hype for this game, we need no hesi on console and this seems like that and so much more
Game ran like ass in the alphas. Game ran like ass in the betas. Game still runs like ass in the demo. The city is dull compared to the other test drives. Always online is garbage. The car sounds are fantastic though. That's it.
Kinda late to see this, but damn thanks, now it's time to Test Drive the Demo.
The Graphics is Similar to GTA 6 but cartoony..
More like gta 4 with graphics mod
Cannot believe this is the steering wheel animation, wtf.
Should be 900° animation, like Motorfest.
the lack of console gameplay is concerning:( - I don’t have the money for a PC right now, and even if I did, I have much more important things to spend the money on, like rent… lol
but it will realease on consoles too, what is your concern?
I’m interested to know how it’ll perform and what it’ll look like on consoles. Because I can only play medium settings to get consistent 60fps on my PC
@@manekisyko4127 that’s not the point. The point is the lack of closed playtests/demos for consoles compared to PC makes me think the console versions aren’t gonna be that great, at least on launch. Maybe they will release a demo for console soon?
Looks like a moblie game bro
Imagine they took a book out of need for speed rivals where you can choose outlaw or cop
Definitely won’t buying this on release day
Just a good ol' fashioned game. As Michael Rosen said: "And everything was lovely once again!"
Its always online so I'll pass
7:31 the face that indicates that you lost 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
always online
always no buy
Nice to see some more gameplay 🔥🔥
The graphics is horrible
97 day left, before Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown launch.
It looks like crap
I love the fact that in Test Drive Unlimited the test drive is still limited🤣
why does the graphic look like a 2014 game?
it doesn’t look like the trailer at all 😑
And on standard hardware it looks even worse than that. You need a $5000 pc to make it look even close to this
I wanna know what you played in 2014
@@BlackPanthaa what’s your hardware? On a 3070ti you have to play on lowest of settings and it looks like a switch game
Disappointed that theres no cosmetic customization, would love to see body kits and such
They should add the GPS to the screen in the car so you can turn off the UI for interior view
That’s something i loved about test drive unlimited 2 and i want it in the new test drive and more interactive interior bits i want to access the music and other car features on the screen i think test drive should get better at more interior interaction
Woo bring back demos
Damn that static lifeless camera views without any movement kills it 😣 not even to mention that steering wheel animation...
the sound effects are nostalgic
45gb for a demo is crazy I’m scared for the size when it’s officially out
