TrackMania2: Centralised News about the Game

[Mandark]

Sorry for bumping, but I thought we could use this topic to discuss.

Can we expect a new TrackMania 2 environment announced this year? The time gap between Canyon and Valley was 2 years. Now it's been an year since Valley and possibly one year till the release of the next environment. So maybe a trailer this year?

edit: Forgot about Stadium, but that is a bonus environment imo.

Most probably no new announcement this year. As you know, Hylis is very very carful about announcements, he prefers to surprise the people.
My guess is he will unveil new stuff at the next edition of the Gamer's Assembly in April 2015

I'd love to get at least a tiny little bit of information, so we know that/what is coming. This way it builds up more motivation to wait and play the game. There is a German saying: "Vorfreude ist die beste Freude" (anticipation is the best type of joy)

I just wish Nadeo would "accidentily" leak a screenshot or another little detail. This way it wouldn't even harm if things aren't final yet.

Just take a look how much rumors, theories and attention the old designs created: http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=25082
It's super interesting to see and creates much more tension
(everyone loves drama and tension )

Mmm no news, no rumours ???

I also think that TM² can benefit from another env

and

it's not new. I think I even already said that the gameplay of it is complementary of others, and that's because TM² has been designed to evolve, but also to complete itself. It's a little like in these simple scenario: go and collect the 3 gems to make that powerful armor ^_^

I hope later this year ^^

I'd love to get a Christmas present from Nadeo

It would be quite a shame if we don't learn more about the next env. this year. Indeed, Nadeo is pretty good at making surprises, the Stadium 2 announcement was really unpredictable.

Also, would it be the last environment for TM2? Because I heard they planned to make 3 environments for each game, and Stadium as a bonus.

You heard it hear first

And let me know about it in pre - pre pre - alpha - alpha - pre pre - alpha

it's not new. I think I even already said that the gameplay of it is complementary of others, and that's because TM² has been designed to evolve, but also to complete itself. It's a little like in these simple scenario: go and collect the 3 gems to make that powerful armor ^_^

As Hylis said before "2015 will be the year of TrackMania", I think that will be a good moment for a new environment, when it comes. I expect TrackMania 2:Lagoon (as it seems to be called in the script in ManiaPlanet and has been shown in some concept-art) by that time.

Wondering whether an alpha/beta will be usefull for a new environment, might be good to got the community on track with all tools/sites/mapbuilding/etc. And maybe to help tweak the gameplay/handling a bit.

We'll see ... I guess we just have to be patient to await the "Year of TrackMania"

When will Nadeo create a new TrackMania?

When it's done.
