To the people out there that don't understand why Alex says TDU SC sounds better than FH5 : it's simple, most of TDU SC's sounds are more organic and well mixed with the ambient sounds. In FH5 the acoustics are more focused on the raw car sound, and in TDU SC there's more sound reverb effect which I guess sounds nicer to the ear aswell. Also, in TDU SC, it sounds like the engine is really pushing the car's weight while in FH5 it seems like the engine is effortlessly pushing the car's weight (it sounds more linear in general). From what I've heard from the TDU SC gameplay reveal and from what I've heard from various FH5 gameplays (I don't play this game), I would say that TDU SC has more detailed and ambient car sounds. But anyway everyone has different ears and taste, so it's just my opinion.

I normally don't post. But I have to say when it comes to giving info about TDUSC. You are very chill. You don't overhype, nor do you over criticise. Looking forward to your next video.

Alex I am so stoked for you man, congrats on what you have acomplished. The day of the reveal when I saw you I had literal chills. You really seem to care for the tdu series like me. Tdu1 and 2 are two of my fav games, it must be a total experience that they took you closer to the development of this game. Again congrats and keep bringing news about tdusc, we need to support this project and kt.

My only two desires for this game, is that there’s a clutch option for manual cars( I’m used to playing with clutch on a game pad) it adds so much to the feeling of driving, so it’s a must imo Another must in this game is car delivery missions, and hitch hiker missions. That was one of the best things about TDU1 imo, and one of the things that made TDU TDU.. P.S also the turn off/start car option would be very very nice. Great job so far KT! Cannot wait to dive in to this game!

I don't get why people would say it's a clone when TDU were the first to do it. They just added more features on it but back in the days they were all looking at TDU. BTW ALEX nice video and keep grinding brother.

Hey Alex, hope you're doing well! I made a comment in a previous vid. I had a small suggestion for the devs. Could you ask them to allow the indicators to automatically turn off after you turn in the intended direction? I'd makes the game more realistic and convenient. The game has a lot of potential and I hope it fulfills it, thanks!

I cannot wait to play this game at night irl, while it’s also night in the game, and chill drive with some music in first person view like an actual civilian immersing myself in the world.

I'm really excited about this game. I was 29 when I started playing the old Test Drive games, then TDU came out and it blew me away. Then YDU2 came out and I loved that they kept Hawaii as the location again. The world had been improved over TDU and I liked the way challenges were displayed for single player and that where ever you drive you could see other players driving around. Something Forza copied. I'm 52 years old now and will definitely be buying this game. ❤

As a game dev for another publisher, this was great to listen to. Great questions and answers!

What’s up, Alex! I’m so hyped for this game! I’ve left feedback for TDUSC! I wish the best for the team at KT Racing for making a TDU experience that we can all enjoy! I love your content so much, Alex! Keep it up!:)

To be honest, it was so nice to see you at the presentation. To me, it’s enough that they invited you, probably the best KZfaqr about TDU franchise. This somehow makes me feel that they’re listening to the community. Keep up the good work!

Good job on the interview. The game is shaping up really, really well. It's a long wait, but it seems to be worth it. Big cheers for the dev team! They seem like a competent and passionate bunch of people that would be nice to hang out with and talk about our common passion. It's nice to see they listen to the constructive feedback. They should just keep hammering on, because they know what they're doing and I can't wait to test drive the Test Drive.

You're right to highlight how different TDU games are. I am baffled to see how people have no idea about what TDU is in comment sections :S But hey if they love Forza Horizon, all the power to them

Hey Alex! I am a TDU lover (thousands of hours cruising around the island enjoying the vehicles, if I have to choose which TDU I like more, that would be the 1st one), before saying anything, I am loving your videos, I found about you in the TDUSC gameplay. You asked about how many players should be online freeroaming on the same server. Well, I never knew why 8 players was the maximum back then, so at least more than that, would be awesome plus one more thing, if they offer again the ability to be a co-pilot, would be great if it doesn't fill a car player slot in the server! Anyways, I am really liking how the game looks like! I hope to see more interviews soon! Thanks for Your work!

The quality of that gameplay looks amazing, still amazed every time I watch it, great first interview. I’m looking forward to cruising the streets listening to Classic radio with a group of friends.

Found your channel after the gameplay event a few weeks back. Definitely staying subbed.

Just saw you on IAN'S YT video and we'll done on your recognition. I've been watching your videos for a few years now and so wished TDU would be re-released and thanks yo guys like you and your dedication they listened. Thank you on behalf of all of us ❤

I'm ultimately sad that playground games have the infinite budget and not these guys. I think what they've managed with the available budget is impressive it seems so far. And big thanks to you Alex for the interview.

You are doing a great work Alex, bringing this special atention for TDU Series, and also for taking place over other racing games. cant wait to play it on day one. peeace 👊

Saw you on the TDU: Solar Crown gameplay reveal. Was watching it and thought hey look its Alex!!

Great interview!

Gosh I'm so hyped about this game, I have faith it will be a good game and even if it is bad I will buy it anyway because I want to play another TDU game and I loved the previous ones!🔥 Thanks very much for sharing this video! 💖 *Greetings from Costa Rica!* 🌴

You did great bro keep it up. Excited for TDSC Hope it turns out good

Appreciate you Alex for providing us fans with all of this info. Kudos to you man!

This game has a big future! I see me playing it for years, just like I played both TDUs and I see tons of players come to this game for years. KT just need to do everything the best bcz big franchises like FH will try to copy - don't let them do that! TDU till the end!

I'm begging the community to just relax and LET THEM COOK! This game has so much potential and all we have to do is let them do their thing because they seem to have a solid understanding of where they're going with the game. It looks and sounds like it's going in the right direction, so I'm really excited for this one.

You're a real one for keeping this hype train going since we first heard about this game. I'm sure the devs really appreciate you being positive and open minded about the progress on this game!

I'm pretty impressed by the sound in TDU SC. Even though I remember FH5 they said they completely revamped the engine sounds and yes it was indeed way better than FH4, but now I realize that is simply because FH4 sounds were terrible. In TDU SC it actually feels the car is part of the environment, looks like they have some good spatial audio stuff going on. I also remember the pop from the exhaust echoed very nicely and realistically in the gameplay. Not sure how they achieve this but looks like they know what they're doing.

The car sound is just so lovely

Fantastic interview

Amazing job Alex thanks for this video

Alex, I'm waiting for your videos every day, you're the best blogger on the topic of tdu. I hope you will convey to the developers all the wishes of the fans and they will make the best racing game in the open world for the last decade!)

Hey Alex I just wanted to congrats on the interview bro and about the players in the Solar Hotel and freeroam 16 drivers in the Solar Hotel and in freeroam also adding Pedestrians as well

that ZR1 sounds exactly like how it should, I wish it was the C8Z06.

So of those two new Ferrari's revealed, what car would y'all drive first bewteen the two?!

W Vid as per usual. Great content bro!!

I'm thinking of dropping close to 1k for a decent wheel setup for this game lol, my first time using the wheel so should be something. Btw congrats man! I've been following this game and you since it was announced a few years back and its cool to see the progression. I like all the devs here, they all seem so invested in the game like a labor of love and they listen to the community. That's what I love about the smaller studios instead of the big budget corps that only care about $$$ and put out a boring unfinished tittle.

1. They need to bring back the odometer to each car 2. They need to make the cars value up so the game wont be easy like forza 3. Add light stops and make the city more real that why we loved the game the first place 4. Add car wash and polished 5. Add service for each car

I find it funny that people look at this and think TDUSC is a copy of Forza Horizon or the Crew. Goes to show they never played the original TDU or know the release dates of the other games compared to TDU.Those games were largely influenced by TDU 1&2

Thanks Bro for your itw ! Was it in Paris or Lyon ? Every detail you give us more is a blessing bro, I'm sure this game we'll be amazing. Yes I think also about the indicators as well : are we obliged to use the wheel to get them, because I think it we'll be boring after a while, I hope we will be able to configure directly a button to use them... I hope also we'll get the speedometer for each vehicle, that's was so nice on TDU 1&2.. great video as usual !

Hey @TheAlexVII are you allowed to show us anything in the next weeks. Are any news coming soon ? So much emptiness in KZfaq without new Videos about TDUSC 😬

Thank you for all your efforts and the great interview. I hope we don't have to wait till September for the next videos or Newsletters. I am a little hyped and can't wait for more Infos. A roadmap for the next news etc would be perfect, like the last statement: every month we get some news. Do you have any infos about how we get Infos till release ? Or will they continue the monthly news like they said? Can't wait for the Beta. If I am not lucky enough to be a part of the Beta, i hope you're allowed to share some more gameplay. 😍 But OMG if I would be able to test the Beta with my own pedals and wheel 😍😍😍 I am really counting on KT for this one. FH and the crew are just not my type of game, I still play tdu and tdu 2 🙈

Love the content, just found your channel a few days ago. Im kinda curious on what the classic car situation is gonna be like. (If you're permitted to say anything). I love me some old school muscle and i cant wait to tear around HKI in that Cobra

So hyped. This is really showing to be an insane game! Is your interview with Alain going to be in another video?

Hi Alex, thanks for all this info! I would love to know more about the casinos, for me it was the best addition to TDU2!

Real clothing brands hell yeah. Thnx for the interview (maybe let the interview go all the way, then give your statements after?). Going from these two, they seem clear in their goal. Wish the team the best

I am absolutely hyped for the game! There is only one thing i hope they bring back was the different speedometers on the hud with each car. Ik since it's alpha it might just be a placeholder but maybe beta will have it?

I cannot wait, 2024! been waiting so long

If it has the follwing, I´ll be happy: -Decent, convincing driving physics -A good variety of vehicles with immersive interiors (not gonna play one second in 3rdP view ;) ) -A world that is noticably bigger than those tiny FH or NFS maps, with a complex road network and lots of things to explore -a good bunch of side activities aside from straight up racing (TDU with "side missions" to earn "clothing currency" comes to mind) Edit: What would be really nice would be, if you hang out at a car meet with others, you could earn social points and even a bonus if you actively "do stuff" on those car meets and with "social points" you could unlock stuff like deco for your room/ house (later) or accessories for your avatar and such... if I were to make a game like this, this would be a "must have feature" :)

Great to see the Developers Answering some great questions and I am totally in the Positive Vibe for this Game and 2024 is going to be a great year for TDU Fans - Fantastic TDUSC Coverage here on your Channel - 2nd to Non - The Team there know hwat they are doing and I want a base game then enhancements and DLC's to grow afterwards to enhance the brand for the future! Sounds are Magnificent and its funny but all I here from FH5 fans id that they never fix the sounds on some cars - For me having great sounds is most important - Howvere I am one of those people who turn the music off straight away, but if in cruise mode then maybe its back on. Funny enough I am only just completeing the Crew2 Radio challenges this week afte 6yrs lol. Crew 2 Radio is good actually lol. - Keep up your great Coverage and do not let the negative vibes from people get you down. Our societies love knocking anything and anybody dound - Stay Totally Positive as you are - Peace!

Great interview Alex! I am hyped for the game, it sucks that some people are negative and don't realise it was Alpha gameplay.

Hey Alex, I had a question. In previous TDU games, each car had its own real life speedometer and tacometer in the game HUD. But all cars I've seen in the Alpha version gameplay video use the same generic speedometer and tachometer. Do you know if each car will have its own real life speedometer and tacometer in the game HUD in the final release version of the game? Love your videos, I'm so happy you got to test out the Alpha gameplay

I’m still waiting to see inside the dealerships or walk around, any idea when we may see this?

I hope they add a “per car” transmission option like NFS 2015

"the game is gonna take longer to make" if we the players complain about stuff... Bro we want them to take their time. I'd rather this comes out in 2025 and is a fleshed game, with just as much content as tdu2 had if not more. Or would you rather this comes out half finished, no player homes or what makes tdu game a tdu game.. Devs.. take your fucking time please... We waited for this a long time, we can wait some more. Also I think the showcase was dumb and cause for some red flags. The best thing about was dat ass.

Are there going to be bodykits or not doesn’t really matter because that is not what tdu is about but was interested and iff there are bodykits are it just little lips and stuff or are it like bodykits like a rwb bodykit veilside etc love your videos btw really excited for when the game comes out and the content that you will bring with it you really deserve more subscribers and watchers and I hope you will get that when the game comes out!

When is the next interview coming?

I'm glad the devs know what TDU is about and feel us fans but at this day and age where almost every new game release broken, unfinished or rushed I gotta keep my expectations low to non-existent so no pre-orders for now, I REALLY hope this dev team and publisher actually care about their product and give us what we've been asking for years now, I would gladly purchase the game at full AAA price if it captures the vibe, atmosphere and scale of TDU 2.

Simply unbelievable I have never read so much hate for a game in the comments as in this one. lol But somehow I can understand

Congrats on the interview man. Are we going to have car wash in the game?

Game looks really promising! I just wonder if there will be pink slip races? I really enjoyed the AI pink slip races in Midnight Club LA. It was also fun that the AI would use your car in the next race when you lost. Would also be really nice to be able to win another players customized car.

Hopefully they also implement what made TDU a TDU game: those side missions like car delivery and hitchhiking

Is there different save games so for example if you want to play as sharps or streets you can experience both

I think that problem is not in physics, but in camera movement or position, it is too rubber-banded, maybe on the different speeds it needs to have different stiffness and camera fov. This is super underrated in my opinion

I hope they add bikes as that was a massive part of the TDU series

I think (in my opinion) 16 player or 20 players are fair and enough to play in , because first of all , I don't have many friends lol and 2nd I like to chose better racers in my friends lists (aka the best free roamer) so I can get the best experience with them , and secondly it's because I'll be growing my reputation with them so we can challenge others (Sharps , since I'm a street :D) For the sound in general on FH is not immersive to be honest , I always searched for ambient sound feeling and tdusc on the gameplay shown I felt it inside the city and the car too , I do like in game to turn off every sound and keep the engine and the effects , that's how I play racing games + activating 7.1 option on my headset 😍 Thank you Alex for providing such infos that I missed , one thing I do hope is to be selected in the Beta , I want to help the devs to find bugs and improve the game to become the sharpest game ever made in racing games history. and thanks to Guillaume & Camille for giving you answers 🧡🧡

Awesome new details about the game and let's be honest the only people that are complaining are those, in my opinion, who didn't play much of the origial TDU and TDU 2 and those who most of the time play Need for Speed and Forza Horizon wich are great games and I still play them but guys you can't judge a game when you only see it in alpha , just wait for the full release LOL

Day one, collector edition. Let's go Kylotonn!

Keep up the great content Alex Getting TDU2 Eden/Atari vibes with the KT employees on strike?

@4:13 - Given what we experienced on July 12th, with all the players gathering together [in the club setting], the potential for having more than 16 is there. I'm curious though...if we will be able to have that many (or more) players in other social settings, highlighting more of the lifestyle aspects of Solar Crown (to complement the driving / racing), besides the ones mentioned (i.e., houses). @8:48 - Those gurgles-and-pops though...🔥 Merci beaucoup, #AlexVII❕👊😎

I AM SO READY FOR TDUSC

Can't wait to here about the casino

Hey Alex, just one question about TDUSC's customisation, is it possible to change and customize number plates? 👍🏻

I hope they’ll add Hawaii as an DLC map later on. Just can’t really get the feels out of my mind lol. TDU without Hawaii feels different but I am truly happy to see this game coming back and it definitely does looks promising so far! Also hope to see some bikes as well.

Allow persons to fullest tune the car with after-market parts for the best performance. Include one or two small details like how bad spark plugs can affect your performance or oil or the turbo have a lifetime frame, or engine overheating, etc...and going forward in future games you can always add in real-life things you would do to a car to get the best performance and engine swapping and anti-lag

Will they update the speedometer for each? Or will we get the same on for all cara ?

Good vid

So then this isn't strictly a online only is it? Like for racing can I race AI if I don't want to mess with with actual people? Or are we always gonna be racing against real people?

It would be sick if they make it 2 player couch co-op free roam!!!!

I hope they change the ui speedometer to the actual car speedometer. That was an awesome part of the TDU games

I wish we had to get our license on here just like TDU 2

I really hope the hardcore driving mode will let us drift with rear wheel drive cars so you can really hold those drifts and not slowing down. Maybe also add an wheel angle kit. And hope they fix the wheel animation because from what I’ve seen it doesn’t feel good when ur in the cockpit en the wheel only rotates 180 degrees..

Alex, you mentioned hybrids. Do the hybrid vehicles in the game adapt to your driving style and the battery charge level and turn the engine on and off accordingly?

I can imagine playing this in vr😮

I really wished they finally would do it in a open world racing game and add VR support. Back then with TDU 1 and 2 the tech wasn't there but imagine now, a TDU game that always had also a big social interaction aspect and you would be able to stand and see the other drivers and friends avatars up in person in VR. It don't has to be full blown VR with motion controller etc. just add 6dof head tracking like in Dirt Rally 2.0, Assetto Corsa, Project Cars 2, and so on. Keep the controls as they are. Also of course it's optional like in the mentioned games, you can play either non-vr or vr... I can't say this enough but imagine driving across the map in your hard earned supercar in VR, like you are THERE. But at this point I think we will never get an open world acrade racer in VR, only racing sims. :(

The game looks and sounds amazing! I’m happy they delayed again. Don’t need too many racing games all releasing at once.

Hope for racing games!!

I’m absolutely hyped. I’m desperate for real rock/metal music in the game. I don’t understand why they’d disregard one of the most popular forms of music ever like that. I keep posting a suggestion for a metal radio station in the Discord suggestion thing and they keep taking it down (no one knows who is or why it is being deleted). This is the third time I’ve posted it. They haven’t taken it down yet. I also messaged KT Racing on their website formally. I really want this. Doing that might make this my favorite game of all time. I really hope it gets through to them. I can do all ten hours of music for them if they want!

hope we get snow

Hey man! Can you please make a video about what kind of customization there is in the game? Like an in-depth detailed video with all the items that can be customized? I joined the TDU Discord and tried suggesting about having extensive amount of customization from aftermarket parts, but I and many others were met with a lot of push-back saying that it's not in the "TDU DNA", and that too much customization can ruin the "atmosphere". We weren't even asking for crazy bodykits like NFS has, just the normal bodykits and parts. Do you think that adding customization will ruin the TDU DNA, or could it be a cool addition? I personally think it fits in with the Streets vs Sharps battle

1:34 So many leaves on those detailed trees. :)

great to see the laferrari confirmed as the first in game ferrari!

cant wait. are motorcycles in the game?

Can't wait for this game, but I really hope they have decent customisation and at least 30 players online

Tdu hype ya mon 🎉🎉🎉 Di rass yuh havent interview vivian fi me?😢

Hey Alex, i don't know if you have seen it but Stellantis is also coming back to FH5 next month. They just showed it yesterday, and i know you don't really play FH5 much but i wanted to let you know though.

I think 8-12 players per-lobby is a solid number

Sounds.✅️ Physics.✅️

Will houses be microtransactions or a free update?
