Bumping this. Something is kinda surprising when seeing the best sellers on Steam: Canyon is part of them, while not being in sale. Was there a flash sale during the night?

Proof that Steam Sales on Trackmania are effective. ;)

Ubi have always been a pain to their buyers. I wouldn't have bought TM2 if it was a completely Ubi title but Nadeo were part of it so took the chance.

They badly need to put all the TM2 games 50-75% off. There are hardly any players online in TM2 Valley and it was just released!

I think the asking price is just too high for this to get people interested.

Exactly!

And I'm not even sure if I am suprised that even Valley is almost empty now.

Of course, someone will write that there are sooooo many people building maps and playing solo maps. Well, are they? This overused argument isn't so convincing...

Look, I didn't even bought Valley. I can't say if Valley is dieing already (would be super funny, that would be record I think), as I can't see it by myself. But I can see people talking about it. And if TM2<any envir DLC here> is doing good, then (many) servers should be full of players, instead of couple of servers with only lol maps or short maps or some hardcore tmx-best fullspeed noscope360 transitional maps. There are so many other kinds of maps, not only those 3, would you agree? And I should be able to pick like at least 5 servers for every kind of maps (why only 5, because the rest 5 would be full, hah).

If Valley is dieing already, then it would be like Brink. Such a nice concept, but wasted and didn't made so good. No one played it. Too bad I bought that game. :p

You guys from Nadeo seem to be smiling to public and avoiding talking about problems, pretending everything is allright, saying it's all good and stuff. Well, It doesn't seem it's all good at all for me and I bet for many, many other people who don't give a monkey and don't visit this forum and write their thoughts here.

You could start thinking how to solve that, but your fanboys don't seem to care about not many people playing it and defending every possible criticism, so actually, screw that. It's all good! :)

This is 100% right. I have Valley and I am currently about 2-4th of the world and I don't play much at the moment, because only shitty servers are popular right now :/

inb4 fanboys replies like "then set up your own server with good tracks and make it popular, trackmania is a community-based game, blahblah".

It's always been the way really... once some tournaments start up on Valley then people will be able to play on those training servers to play good maps. That's what I'm waiting for.
