The car handling was totally new and that mostly made up for the derivativeness, to me at least.

I think Nadeo making a Trackmania 2 environment based on an environment that's already in Trackmania 2 would be less likely. Not saying it's totally impossible... but in my opinion there's already more than enough Stadium in TM anyway :P. I'd like to see some more variety, and hopefully originality too.
An environment that was completely dirt-based would be very limited in its own variety, like you're hinting at. It would inevitably end up being expanded with many other types of blocks before it even hit the metaphorical shelves, and then it would be basically... stadium.
I think that better explains the point I'm getting at.
yeah i think a dirt stadium would be really lame, not due to lack of originality, but due to it not having a lot of freedom if nadeo were to do something like that.

im liking the snow/ice idea people have posted a couple times though. that has the most potential for originality i think. but the issue i see with a lot of other ideas for environments is they arent thought out... like at all. which is why i wanted to get way more specific with the ice/snow environment idea. it could really fit in well with the other environments.

Yes, Stadium has dirt but it doesn't feel like dirt to me.
I agree that a simply dirt env might be boring but what about...
Dirt roads, Gravel roads, Sand roads, Sand dunes Water holes, Mud holes, Palm trees, hanging vines. Jungle, Rain forest and Tribal decorations, Mayan ruins and other stone structures, and as far as how to do roads off the ground in this type of env. Wooden and Stone bridges / elevated sections, maybe even suspended rope bridges.
Doing it this way would be a very different environment.

I'd like to see an environment with a very sensitive steering like in bay or rally or island or snow or desert or stadium... :thumbsup:

Or is this thread just about how it should look like?

The topic was started to give Nadeo ideas for all things and wishes the players would like in future environments. I'm sure they have seen things suggested already that have inspired their own ideas.

provided they're making another environment, im willing to bet that the next environment will be a snow environment.

think about it. thats the only environment from tmo that doesnt have a spiritual successor.

canyon looks like a spiritual successor to desert. theyve both got the american muscle car going at high speeds through the desert.

valley looks like a spiritual successor to rally. they've both got the mini rally car going at medium speeds through what appears to be setting in the uk.

so following the previous environments, excluding the remake of stadium, the next new environment might be a snow one.

Space where the car lost its grip to road when it falls off, magnetize blocks which guide cars where should they move instead flying pointlessly in the 0 gravity situation, speed higher then 1000 and placing blocks where you like without any limits, long turns and high loops, car-threatening pits or black holes.

Magnetic roads. You know? You could go up-side-down or on a wall and not fall down.

The only way to get "airborne" would be with a sharp edge (a jump ramp or simply road goes missing under your tires).

There would be magnetic fields that would attract your car (or perhaps you could have "plus" and "minus" magnets, some of them would attract and some would repulse your car? Think monorail hover-train...

==========

I'd love to be able to construct under-the-water glass tunnels with intersections, splits, merges, up/down. If they would be similar to the cylindrical tunnels of ISLAND, that would be awesome.

This would be good for Stadium and Canyon, and perhaps even for Valley.

i would pay good money for a mixed world, cross between the blocks used for Coast and Island
into one new world, mmmm we would called this Paradise island...
i have this pic in my head instead of all land, its now all water, and we add land blocks and road block as well
or maybe the island is set around a volcano "hawaii" nice coastal roads and other half could be the old island roads.
also the jungle theme would work in this world, and some nice extreme offroaders, we could have citys,fishing ports,coastal beach area,airport,boating harbours,fast long open roads

now for car handling why not have a mixed feel, on the wide fast roads "feels like a sports car" the narrow roads like coastal more like street car, then the dirt roads i think it would be better to bring in a drift feeling, i know what its like to drive for real in a rally car, and belive me most of the time feels like its sideways lol

New World "Paradise Island"

Nadeo here is my £20 for Paradise Island

Wasn't that the name of a campaign track in TM Sunrise? XD
