About that Solar Crown Demo...
With the console beta of Solar Crown up and running, I figured I'd finally share my thoughts on the pre-release builds of the latest game in the Test Drive Unlimited series. How bad are the bugs? Does it really look like a PS2 game? What issues are likely to be fixed by launch and which will haunt the game until its death?
DISCLAIMER: Since my firsthand experience with the game was playing the Steam demo on a PC, some of the information may be a bit out of date, as a few of the glitches I experienced in the game have (hopefully) been ironed out for the Xbox and PlayStation beta. I apologize for any info that may now be relegated to the history books, though I have a depressing feeling that...

      Given that THIS is what they put out to advertise the game to its audience, I’d say it’s fair to use this to judge Solar Crown, especially given that a lot of the issues here are just not gonna be fixed by release and that “it’s just a beta” is increasingly becoming little more than a shield from any and all criticism. As Maya Angelou once famously said, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them”

    • @SyeJenPlus4
      @SyeJenPlus4 День назад

      Your analysis of the Demo is spot on and @AlexVII had already proved the more recent version of the game he interacted with, has been improved. We don't currently know how old the demo build is vs the launch version or how much has changed for better or worse, and precisely what touted features are in at launch. TDU2 launch was blighted by dodgy servers and a bug ridden game with missing features from TDU. On top of that players complained about the handling, so it kind of makes sense they may focus on physics and servers first. The story behind TDU2 not fulfilling it's potential is an interesting read and the fault rests firmly at Atari's feet. This story and KT being a small developer, may help people understand the current direction of TDUsc.

      @@benn8793 your not wrong, but isn't that the case with a lot of games these days. It seems the harder they try to banish the TDU2 launch problems the more they are creating it's own launch issues. Remember that one of TDU2's problems was it was well ahead of its time and these now industry standards were being set by Eden Games, a small developer. KT will have had a set budget as they are not funded by a Billion dollar company will bottomless CASH. A.J. and a coupe of others were heavily involved in TDU2 and TDU so it's in safe hands, however they have stated they will listen to the community and maybe add improve things based on feedback. They had no plans for houses/garages and due to the feedback that is likely to change.

    I am unfamiliar with Test Drive Unlimited as a franchise and despite hearing others complaining that this borrows too much from Forza Horizon, which I definitely dont mind, this so far is panning out to be the meme "We want Forza Horizon, We have Forza Horizon at home"/looks at TDUSC. I played the PC Demo and I do not have a top of the line PC but I dont have a slouch either and it struggled to play on Medium settings, which is concerning considering I can play Motorfest on High and FH5 on Ultra with no issues. The visuals of this game just do no warrant that kind of resource draw. I was planning on pre-ordering the Gold Edition but after the Demo, I have not pre-ordered anything. They need to have a Free Demo of a FINISHED product and need to stop hiding behind "Not a finished Product, Gameplay not reminiscent of the finished product", we need to see that finished product. I want this game to do well, because I want an Open World Racer for my PS5 other than Motorfest, but from what I played and have seen, this isn't it. The trailers they showed last year to hype the release of this game looked great and then we got the PC demo and it felt like we got the TEMU version of what we were shown. I will still wait and watch to see what happens and make my call after it releases. Who knows, mabye we might have the No Man's Sky of open world racers happening, mabye when the final product is released, it will shut down all of the criticism, but I do not know how optimistic of that happening I am.

I’m disappointed they couldn’t at least update the beta further, but sure, I guess the manpower isn’t available to do it. On that note, they SHOULD offer a free trial once the games out (with progress able to carry over), especially as I assume even the next beta will be the same build lol. However that being said, there are still things ‘missing’ and needing improvements. I do hope KT and Nacon and prove over the time after the game launches that they can make this game into something that can make the conversion of ‘is this a true TDU game?’ become obsolete. Hoping for the best man; I mean I’ve always been optimistic anyway hahaha

    I loved TDU 1 and 2. I was very excited when TDU SC was announced. But as time went on, we discovered more and more flaws. And I'm not talking about the graphics. I couldn't care less about the graphics. There's just not enough TDU in this TDU for me. Plain and simple. Offline mode, houses, licence tests, all the little side missions from the old games... And before someone comes along again and says that these things will come at some point. That's exactly why gaming is in such a pathetic state these days. Sell today, fix later. And so many people fall for it. And if the game doesn't even have any of the features of its 13-year-old predecessor, you can hardly say that expectations are too high, can you?

BETA, DEMO, Shareware, ETC does not matter, it is the first interaction that most players will have with the product, so you want to put your best foot forward and intended or not, the poor outing of those is turning alot of ppl off. It is the cold hard truth. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, you liking the game does not invalidate other opinions.

      The "this is a work in progress" defense is little more than a rhetorical shield from criticism at this point, especially considering that several recent games with far greater resources at their disposal have released in a similarly broken states barely improved from their beta builds. With this in mind, it's hardly silly to compare Solar Crown to "AAA" games like Forza and The Crew, especially considering that Solar Crown's own game director did exactly that, literally stating "We are competitors with GTA6, Forza, and The Crew". I'm pessimistic with good reason; this industry is one in which a company is directly incentivized to put their best foot forward in presenting a game, and given that THIS is the best they could do in the leadup to release, it certainly doesn't bode well. I'm sure that a lot has been improved in the game since this build, but it's safe to say there is a LOT left to fix and that most of it is likely to remain at launch, especially since most of what is wrong with this game is in the form of missing features and foundational issues synonymous with its status as a live service. Also, if you really feel like I'm some Horizon 5 fanboy, I implore you to watch my in-depth review of the game where I am certainly critical -> ruclips.net/video/7XgNOZyE0wE/видео.html

    I will say, if somebody who really enjoyed the beta, I do agree with you that it would be nice to see them expand on the personalization available to the players in the dealership menu. It would be nice to be able to spec out the cars like you were able to in real life, like carbon, ceramic breaks transmission options, as well as other factory or OEM plus parts that you can order from the dealership would be a nice addition

      @@milkyy4168 Honestly it is kinda funny (and tragic) that a better version of the game was just shy of being available when the demo came out given what a sour impression the demo left in our collective mouths. The entire experience of this game, from its vague cgi announcement in 2020 to its botched gameplay reveal in 2023 to the announcement that it would be an always online live service has played like a checklist of everything NOT to do when making and advertising an open world racer; as a lifelong fan of the franchise, this entire experience has been painful to watch.

    My biggest issues going into the PC version of the demo were the lack of an offline single-player career mode, which the previous two Test Drive Unlimited games had, and the small size of the map. (I don't care if the TDU version of Oahu was mostly empty with just a few dozen repeating buildings outside of a handful of unique locations and the houses, it was still a joy to drive around the vast map.) I still enjoyed exploring the parts of the TDU:SC map, especially the hills, but I miss the rural long straights. My biggest problem, though, was that if I was driving fast on the few stretches of highway that let you get up to the higher end of the speedometer, sometimes the game would freeze for a few seconds while textures and buildings in the next area were loading. Granted, I'm only playing on an NVidia GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card from 2016 but this was happening even on lower settings at lower resolutions and this is a graphics card that can handle Forza Horizon 4 without any issues. I'm already not inclined to buy a game with forced multiplayer (I didn't bother with the actual racing in the demo since I'm not interested in multiplayer) but, even if I still decide to buy it, I'm going to wait a while until whatever issues there might be in the release version are ironed out.
