TrackMania2: Centralised News about the Game

receiving a closed beta key at such an event would be fair, cause the tmn and tmu hardcore are more likely to be better beta testers in terms of knowing tm physics inside-out...

Correct me if i'm wrong but... why would you need a key for an open beta?

@ sabre, not the winner is getting the key,for each 8 players of the TMU and TMN tournaments... that has nothin to do with the hardcore community. And again the physics of tm has nothing to do with tm2.

@el_cid, open beta doesn't mean all can join. You probably have to register and only ~ 1000-5000 people get into it. With the open beta key you can be sure to be in.

8 on nearly 50 professionnal players...
Think that DH is in a land of PGM, and if we go there we are really pwned.

[Sabre]

lol wiid, that wasnt the point, i responded to how you said that it is unfair for the winners to receive them (it is fair if winners did)

[redfog]

Yeah, we of course need some PGM to do the trick, but how could nadeo evaluate the good maniascripts testers ?

After, videos and mappers, we already know who could be lucky bastards.

[Knutselmaaster]

People who are good in creating plugins for example, or those who have made nice things using manialib, will be able to learn and create scripts with relative ease.

so is there a specific date in july for the beta or is it going to be a suprise? I can't wait for all the gameplay footage

Edit: never mind, I got pwned by Inso

I would assume that any open beta will be much nearer the date of release, but I doubt any screenshots will be allowed to be released as we weren't allowed to give info when beta testing TMF...

I logged in to the game this morning and saw this:

What ist about Gamescom in Germany ? Will a Trackmania Insider be there ? Would be very nice if I could talk with them a little bit about the game
