    For me bro once you get past the server issue's you realise it's just a racing game, TDU was a driving game that was sometimes about racing. I wanted basic shit like some sort of deliver package or transport VIP missions that would be like "go from here to this location 15-20km away and don't crash for a payout, they knew people wanted this sort of stuff by statements made on their website and they just didn't bother with it.

    6:42This absolutely needs to come immediately. I don’t know what the Devs were thinking not bringing it as a feature. They should’ve had a in game auction house physical location. Where you can drive to and sell each other cars live that goes to any server. That’s another rpg lifestyle feature. They have more than enough racing content for even the most die hard TDU fan they have overachieved in the TDU racing aspect lol.
    The lifestyle elements of TDU aren’t all the way there yet that’s what they need to focus solely on the lifestyle aspect now this is one another feature. We need to be able to sell our cars if I don’t want a car no more I should be able to sell it to a random or a friend at a parking lot, gas station and at a auction house. Where it can be bided on for even more money with the upgrades I have on it and livery.
    The higher the parts I have on the car the more the car should sell for and the lower the parts the lower it should sell for it’s that simple. The person will still have to rank up to unlock the car to drive it in races competing. They can only use it in the open world to drive and it will have the parts unlocked already. Even GTA 5 online has this as a feature on a basic level. TDUSC had it first they need to bring back this feature and expand upon it just like I explained. Also remove region lock the player base is already too small and add crossplay a year or two later. The stronger connection for region lock excuse didn’t work it failed take away region lock now KT!!!

    3:30 This is actually quite ironic that the game is supposed to be always online, yet they didn't design the game to be always online. You'd think the reason it's always online was because they built the game to be that way from the ground up, including syncing physics on the server. Yet things like that don't even sync. They should start working on an offline mode ASAP because clearly this game needs it.

      Offline mode is end of games life, that is when it should be worked on, now makes 0 sense man. There’s too much to change and it won’t make a different in playerbase numbers in my opinion.

    - 370 Z
    - 5.0 GT
    - Hellcat
    - ZL1
    Fix the Supercharger sounds, bc they sound like they have straight cut gears. And they don’t have any supercharger upgrades
    And they gotta add features that impact cruising. Drive modes like “comfort” and “sport” is very much a step in the right direction...
    - They need to make use of drive train selection via toggle wheel. Add vehicles that have AWD with a RWD mode. Theres like 8 cars I can think of right now that can implement.
    - better optimization would go a long way as well. But ima keep harping on it bc I know this game can still be great

But unfortunately this game will only last a year at this rate to me it dont just fell like a TDU even tho i have put in lets say 10 hours so far i feel like it needs a few things ( majority i have said from the start including others ) i do wonder what the point in a closed beta is for?
    - Fix Servers
    - Fix Graphics on consoles
    - Really need cross-play the game needs this to keep servers full
    - Proximity based servers like the old ones/The Crew would be great ( maybe max 32 Players per serve )
    - Push the casino early
    - Needs more life around the streets, apart from some AI cars the streets are empty, people walking around is a must IMO ( bit like the old TDUs have some planes and boats around to give it some atmosphere )
    - If you change regions to join NA/EU friends ect your progression should carry over

    Thanks, whoever decided that the game absolutely needs to be always online with no offline mode... Despite the shortcomings I think I'll want to get this game soon, simply because I enjoy this game. Out of the many racing games I've played in the past 5 years, cruising in the demo was actually something I enjoyed, something that takes my worries away and just lets me have fun in a game. So I'll get it for this reason.
    One thing I don't understand is that people are saying the graphics are "like GTA San Andreas" or "looks like a PS3 game lol". I just don't get it, because to me the graphics look just fine, they look good even. Maybe on PS5 and Xbox they aren't the greatest and look closer to a PS4 game because of bad resolution etc. But those exaggerations, what is the reason for it? Is it just because the game had a bad launch so they're just throwing more heat to the fire by saying those things, or am I delusional and the graphics actually look like PS3 quality? Honestly I feel like I'm being gaslit to to the point that I genuinely don't know.

    I bought the gold edition yesterday I'm enjoying it so far yes it has its small issues I haven't had a problem so far with getting into the game server wise the problems I have is the lighting looks washed out even when I change the visual settings and the sound of the car at full volume sounds a bit too quiet and the only server issue i have which many do as you mentioned is the races not including people in them I know they've done a bit of work to the servers since launch of the gold edition im really optimistic that the game can only be improved and get better as time goes on seeing as the base game isn't out yet I want it to succeed 🤞🏻

    @TheAlexVII I feel like KT and Nacon got lost in translation on what TDU actually is, Solar crown feels nothing like a TDU Game, it feels more like a soulless ripoff that needed at least 2 more years to be to a real TDU Game. It’s missing all the features that TDU 1 and 2 had at launch lmao. I’m enjoying the game but it’s not worth $60 or $90.

    A lot of the cars have perfect sounds pretty much. Best i’ve heard.
    Some things i’d like to pass on regarding sounds:

    A few cars have unrealistic transmission sounds in the interior view when stock.
    •Cars sound amazing outside but extremely muted inside which isn’t realistic.
    • McLaren 12C has the completely wrong sound
    • Lamborghini Aventador SVJ in interior sounds bad.
    • Ford GT40 sound is wrong and a generic V8, should be a special unqiue sound.
    • Supercharger sounds are too quiet
    Asides that these are the best car sounds we’ve had in a car game! Really impressed.
    Really hoping the add the Pagani Zonda variants from TDU2, Porsche CGT and Lamborghini Gallardo mk1 5.0

    I appreciate your honest thoughts about this. I agree the physics is good the graphics is good. Imo this is the best driving physics in a TDU game.

Unfortunately I doubt they can fix something so major in a couple of days. But hopefully they can fix it within a month after release and then I will probably buy it.

I know there's gamers who are loving how hard the AI can be when racing , but ,it going to be to hard for the gamers who are new to gaming and children,they don't have patience enough to do this grind, there should be a mode like other racing games where you can choose to increase or decrease the difficulty

You started in a cheap property with few parking spaces and cheap cars and worked your way up. It's kind of weird that you don't work your way up to luxury properties. If you've finished the game and only then properties come along, it's somehow too late because you have expensive cars and then don't start in a cheap property. That wouldn't fit together...

    You were the main one saying the servers needed to be flawless since they announced that the game was going to be online only. I wish they made a offline mode it must be car manufacturers or investors influence idk. That’s besides the point because even if the game did have a offline mode. The online mode would still be bad and it would be what most people eventually gravitate towards.
    Because that’s how the game expands it’s more features you can implement over time. That you can’t do in a offline game in a certain timespan of development. I said it before and I’ll say it again they need a offline mode I don’t when they can get it out. It just needs to be sooner than later and giving up millions of dollars in game currency won’t work. Because now you’re destroying your game’s economy. It’s exactly what GTA online did it’s why the economy is terrible in that game.
    They gave away millions to players for years because the game was broken. By giving people money they didn’t work for because your game is not working. If you can tell us who is specifically the reason for why you haven’t made a offline mode. We will understand and direct the deserved hate towards who it needs to be directed towards. It’s just crazy because this game runs the smoothest when you’re actually playing by yourself how ironic lol.

    Aside from the server issues (which for me, I haven't had any so far as I only bought this game yesterday, touch wood), the devs NEED to patch in an offline update. And NOW. Not just at EOL like they hinted or suggested, RIGHT NOW!!!! It makes ZERO sense for what let's face it is a predominantly single player race to even REQUIRE a persistent Internet connection. That's just fact. As for people saying 'oh but it's not like TDU and TDU 2, and more like a racing game, well firstly isn't this what it's meant to be at its core, and secondly, okay I can understand that it's not like TDU and TDU 2 right now, but you do know there is a roadmap that says those things would POTENTIALLY be coming in at a later date don't you? And it's not as if you don't have things to do even without it. I have only scratched the surface of things I can do in this game, and I haven't explored all the roads yet. All in all, aside from the server issues and the fact that they NEED to include an offline mode or update, this game is nowhere near as bad as what people are making it out to be. Your mileage may vary of course depending on the platform, but I'm playing it on a PS5 and it works just fine.
