I know all this, had been a tester in the closed beta and played TDU before.

Handling and bugs are the only thing that worry me really but I'll give it a go for a fiver

I hope you like it

In its own right it is reasonable but I just think it pales next to TDU 1, both in playability and location - ie. Hawaii is much prettier and more interesting to drive around than Ibiza is.

(Oh and arguably the car graphics are better in TDU 1)

I am interested in MOH but can anyone confirm whether you have to unlock the MP weapons? I want to have a play with everything but cba to play for hours and hours to unlock stuff first.

You should like it. The game has its critics but it is slick, well made and some of the MP battles are untouchable for pure excitement.

Yes you do have to unlock weapons by ranking up. But the early weapons are perfectly good enough, the later ones are only slightly better. It isn't like COD where newbies are crippled by not having the good perks etc. MoH doesn't have perks so everyone is equal from the outset apart from guns.

Hmm, would still prefer it to be a fiver

Are there lots of servers online?

I have a few games a week between other games. Always a good battle to be found. Plus, there should be loads of newbies getting it now as it is cheap. Great time to buy. The SP game is far from shabby either.

It is not as popular as COD or BC2 but you will certainly be able to find a fully populated server with the most popular game modes.

Well, my wallet has survived day 1 intact. Nothing temping so far.

But TDU 2 features both Ibiza and Hawaii, doesn't it? :confused:

Plus you get the online Casino where I spent considerable time during beta

Moothead2 · 30 Jun 2011 at 19:48

Does it play like BFBC2 and is it quicker to find people than on BFBC2 where you run around for ages before finding somebody? I never really liked BC2.

Yes although you don't get access to Hawaii until later - I haven't done yet. I can't see the point in driving Hawaii on TDU 2 when I can drive it on TDU 1 with better graphics and handling anyway.

I don't think you will get the casino unless you pay extra though.

So Steam start their summer sale and at the same time about 9 of my games start updating. Someone has not thought this through properly!

I thought the same, 1gb worms reloaded update, 400mb monday night combat and many others!

More intense. You will kill and die A LOT. The graphics are good, the gun sounds are immense. Just get it in stop faffing woman!

How do you know TDU1 has better Hawaii graphics if you've not played it on TDU2? Besides, it's quick enough to get to level 10 to unlock Hawaii.

It isn't hard to find enemies at all. It is SIMILAR to BC2 although more hardcore, it isn't a good game for casual players I would say. If you are a casual player you will probably die a lot and might get disheartened. It uses the BC2 engine but doesn't have destructible environments.

Sweet, been waiting to pick up MOH.

I mean the car graphics in TDU2 are worse

And I guess my failure to get to level 10 shows you how quickly I tired of the game.
