no challenges at the diners now, maybe they are fixing the glitches

I've worked my way to pro status so I can repeat the same 'race' for extra cash. Got the mad task of re-doing all the races now which will be a mission. I'm hardly seeing any players online tonight?? The servers are up but I've hardly bumped into anyone.

Am i alone is starting to become ever so slightly bored??
Maybe its cos i havent reached the highest level yet i am one off it, but i hope it unlocks a lot when i do.
I wish car games had a lot mroe racing in them, the speed trap ones are just a pain, and so are the time trials. Hitch hickers and package aint bad but i want more racing!! with some AI which i dont finish at least 15 seconds ahead of every race

I just hate the speed trials. Reminds me too much of Most Wanted and I hated them with a vengeance in that.

You get absolutely nothing for reaching Ace rank which is a bit of a shame!

As xbox live is down at the moment for maintainence TDU won't let me continue my game! Due to me having the car pack installed. Anyone else got this problem?

Do you mean the pack with the RS4 and the skyline?!

I was playing the game last night offline in the Skyline so it should let you do that.

Pac3y · 19 Sep 2006 at 13:51

Yeah I do mate, if you can play then It's a strange one! I do own that skyline too.

Can anyone help me. How do you get to online race at raceway by the airport? When I drive to it the road becomes blocked with barriers. I have looked online and it says you need to be pro level, I am now on expert. Also can you configure the controller so the right analog stick becomes the throttle?
cheers

I was wondering this too. I can't get into the track even though I am at the expert level.

Also how the fudge do you get to the island track?!

Pac3y · 19 Sep 2006 at 13:57

Here is a pic of the message I get. No matter which way it won't let me continue my game as I'm not connected to live!

Hmmm thats odd I have never seen a message like that.

I assumed as you downloaded the cars completely (and not just an image for online purposes) that they are useable regardless of whether online or offline.

What sort of things can the Devs add for this game..? What I mean is I have driven past the Lexus showroom and its not in use.

Do you think they can add new locations or buildings as such with updates. I know they can update cars etc but with a lot of people wanting new and different cars, example the Bugatti Veyron. Could they plonk a new showroom on the map solely for the Veyron for example?

If so, this could be a never ending game id you know what I mean. They could add new missions, races and showrooms etc once they get the go ahead from the companys involved.. To me as of now this looks like it could be a real gem, somthing to keep us playing for a very long time..
