All this demo has impressed upon me is that Forza Horizon really needs a proper, modern city next game.
im still praying that its gonna be japan 🙏
And better Car Sounds!
@@forever-eb4otnot gonna happen
@Bigdoghirohito why not?
@@tgiangameplayand better driveby sounds, they can only be heard when they’re really close.
No apartments!!?? What the hell??? This was literally one of the best parts of TDU2
There is apartment. You literally start in your apartment.
@@elksalmon84 One single apartment when in TDU 2 you had countless options for houses and apartments.
it's a demo, calm down
@@brunogamesbr1 This statement would be comforting if it was the early 2010s, but now? Not really, games now are really close to their Demo stages. Very rarely do they change the game much afterwards unless they delay the game by a large amount of time.

No offline mode, no money from me
Offline mode? Who tf plays that even.
people with mini itx pc's or laptops that dont always have connection to the internet... @@dennisraeimakers5218
@@dennisraeimakers5218 this is not the point. It's about games preservation. When it's online only, they can take away your game that you bought with your own money anytime they want. You don't own it, you're just borrowing the product. It's anti consumer and i don't support it.
@@Cluxiu games are dead anyway after a few years so i dont really care they can have it.
@@dennisraeimakers5218 I care. As a gamer and game developer myself, there's no way I'm giving them a penny even though TDU was a big part of my childhood. I know a lot will do the same and I love it. because if you support these shitty business practices, they will continue doing it in every game from now on. And we don't want that :) But you feel free to do whatever you want, it's your money after all.
I miss that each car doesn't have their own speedo like in TDU 2
trueee, the small details
Facts
Agreed, I was hoping they do that
So it's TDU without housing and housing customization (Including Garage, And no House boat!), No good story with cutscenes etc, No clans/crews and clan/crew housing, No bikes, No interesting events, No car customization, No drifting, Bad physics, No offline mode, poor optimization and no wheel support. So it's a mobile game for PC? Man I sure do hope the full release is better than the demo.
lel you just summed up modern gaming industry.
literally the entire game's premise is clan battles, what the hell do u mean no clans
@@SawRunner Watch your tone. My comment was made from watching what I've seen from the demo gameplay. Me making a misinformed mistake doesn't warrant you being a condescending tw@t, and nitpicking one thing over a mountain of lackluster promised content falling short of community standards doesn't make my initial comment unwarranted. So apologies. The game does have clans everybody but the rest of the game is just "Meh" at best and fails to come close to living up to the older title, Happy?
It won’t be better. It never gets better because the game is pretty much done at this point. I still can’t believe there are people who believe that something major will change from Beta/demo to the full release after all these years.
@@marinpoljak9078 that is literally what the demo is for, that is not even 10% of the game's content
That "no offline mode" is a deal breaker for me.
Who tf is playing offline in 2024?
@@Ball.Daily11It's literally said in the video. But tldr, if they decide to shutdown the servers, you no longer can play the game that you purchased. Lots of companies are doing this now.
@@Ball.Daily11 people like me without a proper connection
@@Ball.Daily11 A lot of people, pal
@@Ball.Daily11bruh
EVERY game should have an offline mode. Even MMOs, so long as there is a 'purchase price' it should be REQUIRED to have an offline mode. Period.
MMO is litterally "Mega Multiplayer online game" everything with MMOs are about playing with others
It just doesn't feel like a TDU game....
Yeah - It feels like "Forza Horizon at home" - a bad copy of forza pretending to be Test Drive. it lack everything what makes test drive a test drive
TINY FxxKING MAP!
@@SCORP1ONF1RE Should have made Taiwan island instead of HK
@@SCORP1ONF1REthe map is literally the biggest one in a currently supported open world racing game except for the crew 2, it clears anything else
More like the crew 2 ripoff, where the crew 2 already looks outdated today

Because PC is 25€, Xbox 35€ and PS5 50€…
no offline mode most likely to prevent cracks
@@Disxs Surely but its not my Problem 😁
@@Disxs theres always going to be a crack, it just depends on whether or not getting the cracked version is going to provide a better experience for the consumer.
@@AkaneOusaka no theres not. If its online only the game will be run on servers hence being uncrackable. The crew motorfest is online only and it never got cracked. Pretty sure nfs unbound is the same. Its just not happening if its online only.
@@Denniz69 i would prefer offline too but most likely wont happen

As a Canadian myself, I can confirm that is 100% true.
The physics make no sense. Despite that, I was still considering buying the game. That was, until I realized it was online-only.
No player houses no casino this game should have been released 10 years ago it's gone backwards 😤 oh I forgot no bikes
Fax
casino will be available on a full release which was stated on the discord, and who even cares about bikes in tdu lol
@@SawRunnerI loved the bikes in TDU and I own multiple bikes myself, so it’s cool to have the same bike in the game and race around the map. Lol
Bikes are also the only reason I played the crew. :)
it's
a
*DEMO*
don't judge lack of content yet, focus on actually bad things like always online
We will have houses
the "clean driving challenge", "very long exotic car delivery challenge", and "wonky police pursuit system" is a must have in a TDU game.
I agree with you but we have to keep in mind that KT doesn’t have the same budget as Playground or NFS developers (can’t remember their name), hence why some of the features won’t be available at launch and why this is a AA game.
Also as you said, that’s a demo and a VERY early one as one of the devs pointed out in a recent interview (There’s a video about it in Kingdom Twelve’s channel). And i know that’s no excuse but i believe some of the issues that we are experiencing were already addressed. And that leads to another thing:
KT actually listen to their community! A LOT of the things that we have in the game were suggested by us. The delivery missions that you mentioned and also houses will probably be in their first BIG update after 3-4 months of release (when the first Solar Crown season ends).
We have to understand that, as i said before, they don’t have the ability to implement EVERY single thing at once, so some things will come in later updates. And, to be honest, they’re doing a VERY good job with the resources they were given. Almost every feature that we asked will be already available at launch/ The physics of the game are really well balanced, in a mixture of Forza and Gran Turismo/ The map is perfect, etc.
To me they just need to fix the steering wheel issues as well as it’s animation, boost the convoy capacity to at least 6 players (8 would be ideal) and remove that stupid “Region Locked” thing (which i hope it’s only for the Demo because it doesn’t make sense at all). I wish they were able to add crossplay at launch but i don’t think it’s possible with the budget they have.
Some customization would be nice either, i saw some people saying that there’s actually visual customization but they didn’t added in the demo. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
That's fair
I agree 100% mate ! You said that very well! For such a small company they did very nice job ! I am from the firsts in discord community and when I saw that they listen to us I said take my money on the first day of pre orders ! And when the demo revealed I said take me more money 😅because I knew that is an old build but the only want to test servers and balancing them ! In September everyone will be happy except the arcade racing players ! Because this game will be much different and with a lot of realism for the car physics and driving also 🙋🏻♂️
NFS is by EA btw
@@_CUBED_ Bruh 💀 I know it’s EA, i forgot what Studio from EA is behind NFS
@@vaggeliskerasiotis6863 I also joined their discord very early and it’s really nice to see how the game is turning out! Tbf i was very concerned about a lot of things, especially the physics. A TCM-like physics would kill for me
anything that has no offline single player is an immediate fail
I completely agree with Optimization and AI needing improvements.
I was able to get some drifting in with the stock 370z, but it took more work than other games; really throwing the weight, downshifting, and handbrake.
So you was sliding? Not drifting?
@mrtandemslidessbtt It's definitely easier to powerslide. The game tends to prefer locking you up with understeer, but if you downshift and feather the gas you can drift. Just don't expect to sustain a drift through the whole course like other games.
i did that with the mustang too. i love the handling i dont want them to make drifting as easy as in forza and babyproof the game.
yall are bugging even i can drift on pc with my keyboard
The vehicles need way less grip and downforce. The cars in this game handle like how cars handle in non car games.
12:11 literally the best part of the video
I can't even begin to recall how many times in NFS: Most Wanted (2005) or in NFS: Carbon how many times I had to restart the boss races, they were hard af, but that's what made NFS:MW(05) and NFS:Carbon so great.
Classic
I dont know if its just me, but the solar crown just doesnt have the TDU 2 vibes.. but hey, its brand new TDU and im pretty excited
agreed
It isn't just you... I was super excited for this game a few months ago.. But, at this point.. I think it's a pass..
Because the devs are completely different. TDU was taken over by a new developer, all they kept is the name. The actual TDU devs are making the crew games now. That's why motorfest feels closer to TDU than the actual TDU.
No motorcycles, no mention of motorcycles.. That's what made the tdu games stand out to me.
TDU 2 vibes was good, but the sounds and physics were mobile-game tier trash.
No hot chicks, and no hot geese = not hot money from me 😃
The devs for this game are a little sus. They abandoned their last game, WRC Generations. That game still has a lot of bugs since release.
No offline mode so it is like buying a trial version - You never know when it become unavailable. Ubisoft did it with The Crew 1 and now players can't launch game at all unless they use server emulator.
I would like to add that while this is a new Test Drive Unlimited game, it isn't going to have the same feel as TDU or TDU2. Simply put it's a completely different dev studio and publisher. The ones most of us love came from Eden Games and Atari. Atari sold off the rights to Nacon who gave it off to KT Racing to handle the dev work. While I know a lot of us would love to see a true revival of TDU, the honest truth is you have to look at Ivory Tower and The Crew series for that, because that's where the folks from Eden Games landed. While I'm looking forward to driving around Hong Kong Island, I don't think we're going to get a complete TDU experience.
yeah that's fair
I disagree with that observation, Game Director Alain Jarniou worked on TDU and to a greater extent as a lead developer on TDU2. He understands exactly what TDU requires and given time this game will include many of the features available in previous iterations and no doubt many more. I certainly wouldn't look to The Crew to replicate this, because after 11 years of development and support from a billion dollar company, they haven't come close. I respect what Ivory Tower have achieved but fundamentally, they've not hit the target.
Maybe the first The Crew (and still a lot missing) the rest of The Crew series has nothing TDU-esque especially not the last one
@@TeamVVV how much does Nacon pay you and Alex to shill for this game? are they going to fly out all the influencers to france again to tell us how this is the greatest racing game ever made and preorder the gold edition now?
@@GTPlanetFamine Probably the same amount you're paid to make pathetic personal attacks against us.
how long did I not see this channel? about 2 years. And it’s still a banger
I stopped watching 1 year after he made the channel
Welcome back!
It always happens you stop watching you come back it’s life
"Does not represent the final product" - Isn't that the entire purpose of a demo?
2:33 The mirrors do work, it just doesn't work at the dealership lmao
I see, that's odd
@@Goosiest No need for them to work in the dealers, that's a waste of ressources
Fair point I guess
The game is just disappointing
They didn’t have the full features from old tdu games
Bad physics
Bad tire smoke
No Offline mode
If they dont fix the physics and the hardware requirements, Im not interested.
At launch they wont
What bothered me a lot is the physics. I get that the "D" cars are the low tier. But it supposedly stands for "daily drive". Which apparently the devs don't, they only drive supercars.
You can't take the slightest turn (not a 180 curve, or even a 90 degree turn, but a very, very gentle curve) at more than 60-70 km/h (about 40 mph) without the car oversteering like you're driving on ice.
Imagine the accidents we'd have every day if that's how they handled in real life.
I have a feeling this game is going to be a massive flop
Thats what everyone says about every game today
my absolute favorte thing about driving/racing games that sold me is the ability to have a garage like tdu and tc2, etc.
i really wish more games does this
its so bad. the graphics, the handling of the cars. i really hope it gets better. the brakes hardly work lol
The graphics are good fix ur settings
@@Kortex_Racing lmao
@dangerranger3297 what u laughing at lmao. Fix ur settings. It looks just as good as it's competitors. Brakes are also more realistic than other games.
2:01 I'm never a drifter, so that's why I find tight quarter races really difficult as it is. I wish I can set up the car right from the start so I can brake aggressively but turn gently.
It's a big problem because most of developers not even played the 1st version of this game, it's all about money and nothing else matters
It's like every developer forgot that what we want from car games is to be able to enjoy the lifestyle like we did in TDU2, all they had to do was take that concept and expand upon it. Yet they happily ignore us.
But the original TDU was (after making all missions), just MMO Racing. And even more, MMO Free Roam. It was a Game to just drive with your mates. And we had like 20-30 people which in TDU 1 could play even 2-3 hours every day. And I think that Solar Crown is not aimed at Forza/NFS players, but at the OG Die Hard fans of TDU 1.
But this map is small. You just drive around empty city. And cities are not that fun to drive. By definition city roads are boring with mostly 90 degree corners and little to no change in elevation.
8:32 well i aint buying it if i cant customize my car with body kits and other customizations this is a miss for me
yes TDU must need pedestrians in the city too!
What's the most important to me when this game releases
is the developers! Do they listen? WIll they try to improve things?
Do they care about smaller userbases like Linux/SteamDeck?
Except for beamng (although they have really rare updates) All the big games recently don't give a damn about what the players say,
often not even when a big youtuber like goosist mentions a problem.
I think what we really need is a game with a closer connection to the developers!
beam updates their game more than most triple a racing games what are you yapping about
The thing I am worried about most about the Always Online thing is for PS5, if I do not have PS+ will I even be able to play the game?
Good question, no idea
Yes crew 2 is also always online and you can play it without ps plus until you want to play with friends
Nope. Same with xbox u need subscription to go online, only exception i know of are free to play games u can always play them online without any subscription
@@dennisraeimakers5218 no online without friends is free omce you want to play woth friends invite them etc you need ps plus
tbh because then the game won’t get any sales
man, I sit here, and watch this so attentively when I know my PC cannot handle a single roblox game on above 6 graphics, btw, W vid
i find it crazy how 7/10 of these issues are already solved in night runners. and that game is also just a demo
What a excellent review. Very honest and clear. The biggest differences for me between TDU 1 and 2, for example, is the police persuit. Because in the one, the chases are much more interesting exciting, as the police won't behave as terrorist, driving towards you like if they wanted to kill or explode your vehicle. They took more care on this aspect, which is maybe the more important on a racing game.
The feeling of playing it is also special and unique. I won't feel the same way playing other racing games. I don't know how to explain it. This one has beautifull graphics and i even imagine playing a ''gta'' with this graphics, which are cool indeed. The map is something that will bother the ones who are fans of TDU 1 and 2, as the maps are huge!
Goose is cooking today
He's always cooking 😂
I hope Solar Crown doesn't get outclassed by its own prequel. Doesn't look good so far
Another destroyed franchise ... What a time to be alive...
tdu1 and tdu2 has the actual car's tachometer on every car you drive, they dont even have this here...
Day 9 of asking goose to play gran turismo 7, I really want to see goose playing it. I'm ready to comment till he gets ps console
One thing that akways gets me in car games is the roads being perfectly mathematically smooth, it makes the vehicles feel like they are just floating in the air. The roads need to be more rough
Hi,
I like water ✔️
I will forever lament the lack of cops in modern racing games, outside of NFS. Dunno if anyone else enjoyed cops in older TDU games, but that was always one of my favorite parts.
Goosiest:It has demo
Also Goosiest:Shows The Crew Motorfest demo
Even in TDU 1 you could turn a Mustang into a Saleen (in a running shop), which gave you a bodykit, so it WAS altering the looks of it.
For me graphics are not about texture or shadows quality. It should feel authentic and cohesive. For example authentic: full steering angle, pedestrains. Cohesive: th game world should be unity, every thing like road, car, a bush and a building should be one. I mean in some games (kinda in TDUSC too) you see every object in the world is disconnected from eachother, they're separate objects rather than contributing for one game world.
Needs lots of work, until its good the OG TDU with Platinum mod lives rent free on my SD :)
Have a feeling this game gonna be a flop overall especially with Motorfest gaining an entirely new island update in November.
Most of the time i prefer Goose to know good or bad thing in games 😊
i think its kind of unfair how everybody talks about how theirs no originanality or no risks taken in racing games but never agknowledge that NFS Unboud atleast attempted an original style and took a risk in it. Even if you dont like it idk why everybody ignores that. The game is full of style all through the menus and, story and general gameplay and even has fully original design kits for a decent amount of cars.
You pointed out good points. Idk why but personally I think they need 1 more year to fix it. Just look at how long they took at last delay, but few work has been done.
All points you've made are very accurate, and the fact that the steering wheel doesn't turn as much as your actual steering wheel, was the reason I couldn't play the Crew 2. And how in a game from 2024 ABOUT CARS, there are no working mirrors?! I hope they'll fix this. One thing I know for sure, I wouldn't be buying this game until it's on massive sale and that's because it's another game where you spend full amount of money to have limited playability? You can't play if your internet is out? That's total bs. TDU is dead for me.
i absolutely agree with you man, they need to fix these before launch....................
can yall chill its a demo
1:07 Dude, if you want a story, that means that you have never played original TDU. Play it once. It is better than second part, many people dislike it just for dark colours of grafics
I was a gamer since 2005, I quit gaming in 2018 till now, but even in these days TDU2 still stuck in my mind,
and I wished if they release a new season,
I was surprised today about the new season of the game,
very happy but now disappointed very disappointed.
There’s also another racing game that’s open world but it’s like fighting open world car game it’s called mad max
I literally played TDU 1 & 2 OFFLINE . I was a kid so it didn’t matter it was Offline .
As an adult I would play online more but having OFFLINE as an option is top tier
11:40 I mean there's Driver San Francisco. Even though it is not available on Ubisoft, you can still download it. What I mean is last August I download DSF from a RUclips video. There's not really any type of viruses contained because those videos are YEARS old. Some of them doesn't have the link for the game because it is so old. The graphics are great nice touch to the drifting and the drift smoke, BUTT, The Storyline, Damn, I never enjoyed a game before in my entire life. You should try this one out and probably recommend this to others as well.
Yea Driver San Francisco is gold
I don't have my hopes up for the final release because it is only a few months apart from the demo. Also the problem with the optimisation and online only😤
NFS physics + Forza game building = not formula that the enthusiasts were looking for
Wheel Support on the G923 is the worst in tdu solar crown If you have vibrations on in the settings the wheels Always vibrates and makes the Same Sound as the Car your driving so basically you will think that a speaker is in your wheel
Play Forza Horizon Five and tune the 1974 Holden Sandman HQ Panel Van. You need a drift tuning with drift tires and a drift suspension and so on. My Holden has 1.750 Horsepower now and a top speed of 324,8 Kilometres per hour. It drifts so good, you can do high-speed drifting too!
Tune it by yourself or go into Forza Horizon 5 then take the Sandman and search for the tuning from HowlingPlayer43.
It's nice that you can test drive cars in Test Drive Unlimited
It would be awesome If we can park the car, get out and walk around and explore the beautiful city and stress.
Your first mistake was drifting the Daytona Coupe, the S550 Mustang does pretty good though I do desire more steering angle
in terms of pedestrians , Midnight club L.A. was good
Personnally I despise the new Hong Kong Map! Main complaint is that it does not load (Might just be an optimisation issue). I'll be flooring it in my shitty Lancia Delta and will get stuck in a non rendered section of road (Meanwhile the AI flies by like nothing is happening) Second complaint is that the map is tiny and basically has two biomes. Once you've been down one road, you've basically seen all of them. You have deserted Asian city, and then you have tiny narrow hill side roads (Which seem to attract every AI on the map when you are trying to cruise[Or god forbid you're attempting a speed trap]) For some reason the AI stops when you get too close... I found that the traffic in the oncoming lane will come to a complete stop, and traffic ahead of you in your lane will stutter until you rear end them.
Your point at the end of the video couldn't be more true. Game companies will continue to deliver hot garbage because they know that we are desperate to play anything new these days. As long as companies are allowed to delist old games, they will continue to put in less and less effort into making good products. Gaming has been a whole lotta mid for the last decade, and it's only getting worse...
I’m really sad that SC doesn’t have individual housing and stores instead of that damn hotel. I can let the customization slide as even the older TDU game never had proper customization 😅
If we are not able to buy properties and there is weak customization… I’m gonna pass on this game…. Honestly I expected something better from developers after 13 years.
I was going to preorder this game till the no offline. That aspect of this game scares me
At this point lets just forget solar crown let it cook. Just give modders complete access to remaster the TDU 2
Is it just me but why is no RUclipsr mentioning that their are no bikes. Loved the bikes in original TDU games
I’ll say it again and be specific this time, Moza R9, pedals, and shifter do work with the game. Even without official support (this changed, it is now officially supported), the game recognizes the input device as “Moza Wheel Base”. Changing the force feedback settings seems a bit bugged, but i don’t know if thats because Moza isn’t officially supported or if its an actual game bug. Regardless, it does work
Interesting, R21 has no FFB
@@Goosiest Its possible its just a bug. The first time i tried the R9 i didn’t have FFB either, but i ended up deleting and reinstalling the demo and the next time i tried after playing a few hours with a controller, it had full FFB. Nacon even updated their supported wheels list and every Moza base is listed now so it should be working. Perhaps its a bug with the install, unsure though
I know tdu is cleaner in its ideas of cars, but some customizations would be nice. A good example would be the ordering option you have when you buy a brand new car. Still clean and purist but more personalization than now.
At least allowing us to remove big racing aero wings if we don't want them on certain cars.
this game is not test drive unlimited, its forza drive the crew: solar crown, also idk if they left that out but, tdu 2 had a campaign sortoff, this doesnt, you arrive and 10 seconds later everyone fucking knows you as a good driver, also another thing, apparently the entire island has 0 cops
they let you test drive, so in theory you can test any car. they could add more gameplay like how gta do like ie buy a nightclub. hope the drifting gets fixed can’t wait to spin round the city on my g290
Everyone will forget the important pluses that were always in the old parts.
The first motorcycles. There is no news on this topic either in the trailer or in the updates
Second, this is the existence of the police game, why have you all forgotten or turned a blind eye to this topic
I don't understand, TDU had one big thing going for them and it was the houses, the apartments, the garages, the dealerships. And they deleted all that. Now it's just a bad Forza Horizon or The Crew.
Goosiest , bob , samantha thats so true seeing number 1 brought back so many nostalgic memeories those were the best missions i feel they still got alot of work to do before release keep up the great work 👍
6:00 i love how you compare 1 ubisoft game to another because it’s the same corporation😭
Other than there's no offline mode i am still surprised of what this new team was capable of since most of devs never worked on a tdu game before
0:36 we will get this when (and if) CarX Street gets released for PC
First Critique for TDU Solar Crown
I was so excited for this game but now I don’t think that I will buy it. TDU and TDU 2 had this vibe of being this millionaire with all this music houses clothing stores and I loved that all cars had different ui speed and rpm gauges. From what I’ve seen so far this game is more like new nfs games, just another boring racing game.
im still stuck on this " fuhzorazu 5 " i slowed down the video btw
Man finally you’re back to drifting…
And don’t worry I’ve got ketchup and goose seeds…
And by the way…
Do you need goose bones..?
No offline is bs! Especially after what they did to the crew!! When they did that I was like yeah you never see money from me again!! Shame
No 200 km race? Truly Test Drive Limited
If Test Drive says "Thanks for feedback Goosiest" things gonna be fine
haaaah...
No offline mode and no houses, that is a pass for me
