TM and TMS servers are still opened too. And the same goes for TMNESWC.zarexz wrote:Sure, there are always exceptions.Omnixor wrote:no o_O quick example - CoD:MW.
The first versions of Trackmania (TM, TMO, TMS, TMSX...) were not free and it didn't prevent people to have lots of fun. Those guys that you call a "no-community" built up TMX, TM-Carpark, Electronic Tournaments, dozens if not hundreds of teams... What you call "no-community" is actually a different way of gaming, with less buddies but closer ones. Maybe it seems outdated in the facebook-friend era, though...TheBigG. wrote:that would be the death of the game, than we have no community in tmf and no community in maniaplanet. If this happen there is no reason to buy anything from nadeo couse nadeos games are mmog and they dont make fun alone.
Hey, i didn't say Canyon had the same gameplay as Stadium! My point was that, in my opinion, Canyon was rather close to Stadium - not identical (if you think Canyon is really that away from Stadium, you should try for instance Rally...). And i think Nadeo thought about how to please TMN players when they designed Canyon. I might be wrong, though...firstdriver wrote:There is a vast difference between TMNF/TMUF Stadium and TM2 Canyons. There is a much bigger drift in Canyons and you only have to tap your brakes to initiate wide sliding whereas the original Stadium drift is much less, more controlled and less 'floaty'. The handling physics of the two games are totally different.
Of course, i didn't say TMUF servers should be shut down. I daily play TMUF... And although i said closing the TMNF servers could increase the willingness to buy the game, i didn't say it would be fair, i didn't say i would support it.firstdriver wrote:Having bought TMUF, the very thought that ours server should be closed down makes me angry. I'm looking forward to playing TM2 Stadium but I'll still play TMUF as well because it's a great game.
TMO, TMSX, TMNF and TMUF ones are still running. Considering Nadeo's policy until now, it seems unlikely that they could be closed shortly.zarexz wrote:Arn't all "old" servers closed down when there's a new sequel to a game?
With still the Freezones system in TM2? With the advertisement coming back? (How wonderful!) With Nadeo building up debts until its banckruptcy to make this generous gift?Timmeh7 wrote:Those are exactly my thoughts. TMNF should be shut down with the "new Stadium" release. Regard it as an update.
Getting more players is coming to its end. Considering the huge number of players on TMNF, i really doubt they'll easily increase it by a 10 factor with TM2, even if it is partly free. Furthermore, more players doesn't mean more customers, as long as the game is free... This could be a pride for Nadeo, but it will not feed them. Considering us, players, i think we'll not get a real advantage with more players, as long as most of those "more players" play mostly lol-maps on servers where nobody say "Hello"... The Community is worthy if it allows interesting exchanges between players, whether they are 10, 100 or billions. All in all, i'm not sure it is that reasonnable to give a free game (that is free for players but has a cost for Nadeo) to players that don't really take part in the community and bring nothing to the game nor to us who paid it.Timmeh7 wrote:I think that would the most reasonable option to get more players.
All the systems have advantages and drawbacks... Of course, we as players could ask for everything free and everything at our best advantage, without caring about whether or not it is viable, or about the other consequences it could have. But i don't think it is really wise.I didn't really want to name anything in particular but I was really referring to EA's TW20xx series. Where they don't even make a patch for their crappy games and just tell you to buy the next version.Romain42 wrote:TMO, TMSX, TMNF and TMUF ones are still running.

you're totally off-topic. Are you sure you posted in the right thread?v6sarally wrote:What's up anyway with the high LP requirement of all active rounds servers?? So this game is only for dedicated proffessionals and the ones who like to play some kind of "lol" maps on time atack mode or what?
) and I did not want to make separate topic also for that question.
