    Yeah but they still suck. And trying to join people is pointless. Once I finally connect with a friend he disappears. Servers cant hold cars for more than a few minutes.

    When is DLC 1 coming out? When they say "DLC coming soon!" it should be available withing a week of that post. Now they're just antagonizing everybody.:(

    Probably never going to see it, Eden was on strike yesterday because Atari is going to fire 80% of the team. The patch that went out to the PC is horrible and it makes the game crash and even worse than it is now.

    This is what I foresee happening. The patch/DLC1 gets rejected by M$ and Eden doesn't bother to fix it because they are all getting fired and we get stuck with the same game we have now. Suffice to say there is no way there will be a TDU3.

    Let's see, the clutch is a button, the accelerator is a button and the brake is also a button.

    It was somewhat "okay" in the beta (yes I broke NDA fvk them) even the sounds were better in the beta, the DEVS did not listen to a single word that was fed back to them.

    Yes they did finally add a hardcore mode but it's still a train on wheels feeling.

    Apart from that the full game is the BETA, I just hope modding will take off soon.

    Yes I take my car games serious... until then I am back to TDU1 with a bucket load of mods and blocky streets. But at least it works like it should.

    /end rant

    I often play TDU1 as well. There's something about the environment of the original that's better. There are certain places on TDU2 that just seem too "open" if you know what I mean. Also, this is going to sound really stupid, but I miss some of my old houses on TDU1 that aren't in TDU2.

    I wish I'd taken this game back and got my money back, no part of this game was better than TDU1. In the next few months there are man games that I will be purchasing, probably will never play this game again.

    I just wish we had never known about it. I can't stand to play either now. TDU2 doesn't hold my attention for more than 20 minutes and TDU1 just feels so unpolished and old now that TDU2 is out.

    I put it down too and just haven't gotten the chance to hit up GameStop and trade it in or get some cash back. Popped in Forza 3 the other day and don't know why I stopped playing that one. Hot lapping Sebring is addictive.

    As much as I hate turn10 for their disrespect for those who made them who they are and gave them untold amounts of money just to be screwed over in the end.......I just bought another copy.

    I'm about to trade in TDU2 and put that money towards Dirt 3. I just don't play it anymore at all and when I do i hate it. A lot.

    +3. I'm considering Dirt3 (didn't buy Dirt 2 but did buy 1), I'll be pre-ordering Forza 4 and F1 2011 as soon as they are available to pre-order. Then theres MW3 which looks amazing and Battlefield 3 also.

    Gonna be a great second half of the year for games. :)

    Oh yeah, I'm also looking forward to Skyrim. I *was* looking forward to the new True Crime, but I guess dumping tons of money into a game so it's 90% finished and then canning it is a good business decision.

    Every game I've had my hopes up for has disappointed me in the recent years. Wouldn't consider myself a gamer any more as I just can't play anything long enough.

    But when I do it's usually Rfactor with something like 20gb of addons and bloated to hell and back but at least I have every race series I can think of and car.

    And the Arma series is great also. If I have time I would like to get back into flight simulators, might give X-plane a serious shot this time.

    I hope the modding scene can fix TDU2, shame it would only be possible to PC.

    The only games that have really held me and that I still play on a regular basis are Rockstar games. I still love playing GTA IV.

    I don't think there are any available sound mods out now. I agree that some, not all, of the Ferraris sound bad. The 430 Scuderia and 16M Spider sound awesome IMO. Also, apparently DLC1 is finally coming out for consoles. Anyone have an idea of when?

    There is one reason and one reason only why this game keeps finding its way into my Xbox. Bugatti Veyron SuperSports. Forza 4 will have that car, TDU2s days are numbered for me.

    Only took them 3 months after they said it was "coming soon".

    I never could stop playing this game, but I can't play it for more than 30 minutes without getting bored.

    I downloaded the patch the other day and started playing again.

    Def. NOT worth my time anymore. The new races are straight up ridiculous, and make you re-start from the beginning for little to nothing done wrong. Don't get me wrong, i don't want it easy; but i had a better time with the so-called "hard" license tests.

    Then; you only get 2 additional cars, which really.....really, aren't that great. Sure, i know the history behind the two and they are great cars, but they aren't worth the trouble the game has had.

    On top of all that; the bikes are STILL not in the game among other countless things that i LOVED in the first TDU. I think this patch confirmed my suspicions that i didn't want to have. The original TDU was EPIC on all levels, and that will be the one i will continue to play. TDU 2 HAD the potential to continue, but it's just an EPIC FAIL.
