TrackMania - Attention and more!

[CrunchZ]

Well you didn't fix bugs on TMUF when ManiaPlanet got released. And, to be honest, ManiaPlanet has so many bugs, at the moment (friends list, server browser, etc.), I'm just afraid, because most developers are just watching at the money. "How can we get more causual newbies" instead of paying attention to the players, which are playing this game for years, reporting bugs, and nothing happenes.

We have already stated that Turbo has not be built to be evolutive, it's more a checkpoint in time and space. Maniaplanet will have the focus back once Turbo released (and moreover, Turbo gave us plenty of experience in several areas to improve Maniaplanet then).

I hope so and thanks for your answer. Giving me hope, though. It's just so awesome that players are able to "contact" the developers or Nadeo at all. That's one point I really love about TM. I'm probably just a player, but I don't want to see this game dying.

Just giving you one bad example, probably: QUESTMANIA. You said, you will release QM, when SM and ManiaPlanet are running fluently.

SM and Maniaplanet isn't running fluently enough to focus on QM for the moment, we prefer to work on fixing TM/SM/MP (with PowerUp and MP4 partially) before starting QM.[/quote]
Seriously, I'm waiting on QM since 2012. And I'll wait. But your thoughts are nice. Hope that you'll really be concentrating on ManiaPlanet / Shootmania. As I said this game has an awesome potential to grow. And the community is probably the best in a competitive game. Just don't want to get Nadeo as a developer which releases a game per year, because that won't help.

after tm2 released nadeo completely stopped caring about tmu, i bet the same will happen again.
i'm surprised they didn't just give up on maniaplanet and made a simpler interface

that huge focus on advertising almost exclusively through esports is the reason i think trackmania 2 never got of the ground, if you're not part of that niche you will NOT hear about trackmania/shootmania, maybe run into a TMNF old article while searching for free games but that's it, even indie games that just started on PC gets more attention than that

i think TMT will fare better thanks to the e3 ubisoft press conference and the steam front page, which reminds me of how a game like The Crew gets all the attention and Trackmania gets nothing, until the e3 anyway. at least Trackmania Turbo will be more popular than Trackmania: Build to Race, Trackmania DS and Trackmania Turbo

No, Tm:Turbo won't find new Trackmania members, jesus christ, you didn't get the message, at all. You SHOULD work on TMUF or TM²:STADIUM. Not on a new title, no one will buy. Seriously, Hylis, please, I didn't mention Nadeo yet, but yeah, because of Nadeo's "work" bugs didn't get fixed, so please, stop talking about TM:Turbo in this topic, thanks, mate!

TMU time has passed, TM2 is no longer at its peak, Trackmania Turbo will revitalize the series

why " " ?^^
I think this post is only 49% right. You will continue your work on TM2/Maniaplanet if TMTurbo is already released, but TMU is almost stopped. Or do we get a reborn of TMU ?
Sometimes Alinoa removes some cheated records from solomode or public some worldnews and Legor fixes some masterserver issues, but this game itself is "gone" from priority list, or not?

[Cerovan]

It still ask some maintenance (like the masterserver for TMO and TMS which are still active).

But i though i read "after turbo released nadeo completely stopped caring about tm2", because i read it a lot the last days (and which is obviously wrong)

[TheM]

I can't quote it at the moment, but it has been said that ManiaPlanet keeps evolving, while TM Turbo is a one-time release. So I think they won't stop caring about TM2 after TM Turbo is released, they probably start caring more, because they have more time.

what kind of answer is that? TMO, TMS, TMN can't even launch in windows 7, i've seen topics about how TMNF and TMUF aren't running on windows 8 and i see no patch for it. why should i believe TM2 will be treated any better?

TMO/TMS/TMN use Starforce, that's why they can't run on Windows 7. TMNF/TMUF works with no problem on Windows 8 (and i'll test on Windows 10 but there shouldn't be an issue too).

We don't use specifics technologies in TMNF/TMUF/Maniaplanet that should prevent to malfunction on Windows Vista/7/8/10. Only massives change in the core of Windows can do that now (but it would mean that Microsoft decided to break the compatibility).

Because tm2 is part of Maniaplanet and maniaplanet will evolve for years to come. TMU is just old depricated and should not be patched imho, frankly i am still astonished that the masterservers etc are still maintained.

[disposableaccount]

yes, they can't launch because of the starforce driver, what did nadeo do about it? nothing.

like i said "i've seen topics", i didn't deal with the issue myself i never used windows 8, what i'm trying to say is that there is an issue with later operating systems, seeing how the earlier TMs can't be launched on windows 7 and lack of any update/fix/patch/whatever for the TM Forevers i have no reason to believe nadeo will support them in the future, same for any other nadeo game once it is replaced by it's successor

whenever TM2 evolves or not is up to the devs, having maniaplanet changes nothing.
tmu SHOULD get an updated if any issues prevents from playing the game, teh game is still being sold
