[Need cross enviroment servers] for tm2

[Smigles]

Secondly: This is also the first product with more than one GAME in itself. It's not incredibly easy to switch from TM to SM. You'd need to quit one game and load another just to play on the server.

That's part of the big design fuckup. Why in the world would you make every enviroment their own game ?

Bad developers, bad

You better calm down and reconsider you words
Please try to be less offending, and write polite.

are you talking about stadium2, valley and canyon?

and what do you want to do if you had cross enviroment servers?

As far as I understood, the question is that it should be possible that all environments (canyon, valley, stadium) should be played on the same server (such as it was possible in TMU) instead of switching between different servers.
With this, I totally agree with smigles even though he uses a bad language and he speaks to rude.

But as we don't know yet exactly how the whole system will be working, we will probably need to wait until the release to see what is happening.

It's too late then! I want the game to be good at release, not just another beta stage like in canyon !

Where are the devs ? Why dont they speak to us ? We made this community and we grew this game for the last fucking 8 years. The least they could do is talk to us.

Maybe the developers would be more diligent to answer if you are able to ask a question without being attacked by your statements and usage of vulgar language?
We can keep the discussion going, if you find your manners. If not, I will feel free to close the topic.

And if you would read a bit more this forum, you would see many devs writing.
Not only Fix or Magnetic, just to name examples.
Have a look (or even better search) at what Hylis has been writing.
He is the "big boss" behind TrackMania and ManiaPlanet, and all development somehow went through his head

I made a nicely formulated thread about the very same topic like a month ago. Didnt get any answer from the devs either.

It's such a obvious problem, and one that will probably again stop most TMU players from playing tm2. But I think that Nadeo just wants the Nations kiddies to come over to tm2 anyway, it's their main market. It's just sad that they just forget about the TMU players who actualy payed money for their games...

Well Smigles

Firstly, I don't think anyone really disagreed with what you were saying. I agree having to run say 3 servers with different env. going to cost me or you a fortune if you are hiring one. In my case I have to, just because I simple cannot run a server free from home.. So for stadium,canyon and valley it will cost me 30euro odd a month to keep my clan happy.

But besides the monetary aspect, my guess is that canyon will be dead in the first week if it tries to survive on it's own. I've seen such a decline already and imagine all the players going to stadium or valley 'TITLES' .. it's just impossible for a clan (group of friends) to exist if all these diversities exist and not united.

Now as for ShootMania, we (i) cannot play it without have local servers (which cost way more that renting overseas and do not exist due to cost), playing on an overseas server is impossible due to latency, so we are all playing Canyon mostly.

Lastly, language, vocab (sic) is to be respected .. refrain from swearing

...... side note... just finished my 1,000 canyon track
