Test Drive Unlimited 2 Full PC Game Overview

Test Drive Unlimited 2 Download Free Full Game is an open world racing video game developed by Eden Games and published by Atari. It is the tenth installment of the Test Drive series, and the second after Test Drive Unlimited to be marketed under the Unlimited franchise. It is the second game in the series to be based on open world-styled gameplay. It was the final game released by Eden Games before being shut down by Atari in 2013.

Test Drive Unlimited 2 includes a variety of roads on the island of Oahu and the new island Ibiza. The game features three main vehicle categories, with each vehicle also belonging to a subcategory depending on quality — A for asphalt cars (A7 to A1), B for SUVs (B4 to B2), which is a new feature in TDU2, and C for classic cars (C4 and C3), with an additional M category for motorcycles. The vehicle subcategory is noted in the form of a number; the lower the number, the higher the quality. The plot revolves around an unknown racer, who is offered the chance to enter a series of tournaments and progresses through the game in order to eventually become the winner of the Solar Crown by defeating a number of NPCs (non-player characters) in various races.

Gameplay

There is a storyline in Test Drive Unlimited 2 for the player to follow. To progress through the game, the player has to earn experience points to level up through the sixty levels. These points can be earned via four categories: Competition (racing, completing challenges), Social (making friends in the game, racing against other people, joining clubs), Discovery (discovering all roads, taking photographs of specific locations, finding all car wrecks), and Collection (buying cars, houses, furniture, clothing/and other needs).

A new meter is F.R.I.M in freeroam. The player can earn a small amount of money depending on how the player drives. If the player is to drive at medium to high speed near another vehicle, he or she will get a small amount of cash, usually 100 dollars per 'pass'. The player can try to chain passes, and hit the 'accept' button to accept their cash, then start a new chain.

Exploring the island lets the player find vehicle wrecks, which will unlock vehicles at the dealerships on the islands. The player can walk around in their houses, vehicle shops and clubs.

The player's avatar can be altered slightly by changing hair, clothes, and facial features. Players can also buy houses in the game. Co-op also features in this game, where friends can be a passenger in the player's car until they decide to leave or the player decides to kick them out.

Plot

Whilst attending their birthday party in Cala de Sant Vicent, Ibiza, the Player encounters Tess Wintory, host of Solar Crown, an international racing championship. Tess takes the Player to her garage, where she allows them to drive her Ferrari California. Shortly after driving from the party, the Player awakes and it is revealed they are a poor valet driver for Wintory. Tess berates the Player for arriving late. She considers firing them, but has second thoughts, and asks them to escort her to the Sant Antoni de Portmany club, in exchange for entering them in the Solar Crown. On the way to the club, Tess explains one of the racers withdrew, leaving an open position for the Player.

At the club, Tess introduces the Player to the viewers of Solar Crown. She explains how they need to gain racing licenses in order to legally partake in the challenges. She introduces the Player to Todd Bishop, a driving instructor, who takes them to a used car dealership. There, the Player chooses a car, and Todd takes them to a run-down caravan, which becomes the Player's house.

Throughout the game, the Player can buy houses, cars and clothes from dealers around the island. After obtaining a licence, the Player can participate in all challenges for the given class. Once the player wins all the championships, they become the victor of Solar Crown. Test Drive Unlimited 2 for PC.

Location

The game is set upon two islands: Ibiza (an island in the Balearic Islands which belongs to Spain) and Oahu (one of the Hawaiian islands). Both islands have been modeled mostly accurately by using satellite data. Each island has both asphalt roads and off-road routes, translated to roughly two-thirds of all roads being asphalt roads, and the total amount of road exceeds 3,000 kilometers, or 1,864 miles. The racing of the game is pretty similar with the standard race types and three cups in the game (one in Ibiza and two on Oahu). The game AI is easier than in the original.[citation needed]

The islands have new challenges and races[citation needed] to earn extra cash, and the roads on Hawaii have been modified to make the location interesting again for those who played the previous game. Hawaii has also been renewed graphically to stay up to date for the new game, and each island features a 24-hour cycle and dynamic weather. The player can travel between the two islands by driving to the airport on one island, where a cutscene shows the character taking off as a passenger on a plane, and then flying to the next location on the other island. This air-commuting ability needs to be unlocked by reaching level 10 in the game. The airports have modeled interiors which, like car dealerships and other locations, allows online players to interact with other online players in the same location. With the release of the second DLC, the player also has the option to instantly change islands instead of entering the airport. However, they can still choose to enter the airport if the player desires to do so.

Vehicles

There are 176 vehicles in the game, which includes popular European sports cars and supercars such as the Bugatti Veyron, a select few classic cars such as the Ford Mustang Fastback, as well as some non-road-going cars such as the Ferrari FXX Evoluzione. Lamborghini does not make an appearance in the game this time, unlike in the previous games of the series (this is made up for in the appearance of Pagani and Alfa Romeo vehicles). Motorbikes can not be tuned or upgraded in this game, unlike in the previous offering of the series. A DLC pack featuring some extra cars and motorcycles has been released. Each motorcycle costs 80 Atari tokens, which cost real money.

The Ferrari 458 Italia is exclusive to the PlayStation 3 and Windows versions, while the Spyker C8 Aileron is only available in the Xbox 360 version.

Cars are split into three main categories each with their own subcategories: Classic ©, Off-road (B) and Asphalt (A). Classics are split into C4 and C3, Off-roads are split into B4 and B3, and Asphalts are split into A7 through A1.

Multiplayer

Test Drive Unlimited 2 has a similar online mode to the previous game; free roam driving. During free roaming, up to eight players can join a session at the same time. The ability to walk is also present in the new racing lobby, homes and shops. When waiting for every player to be ready to race, cars of the other players can be examined. Also, players can be in the seat of another player's car to show or be shown different shortcuts.

Reception

Test Drive Unlimited 2 received mixed critical response on release. Critics complimented the open world environment, and criticized the great amount of bugs on the game, the character models, voice acting, story elements and vehicle handling. On Metacritic, the PC version of the game received an aggregate score of 72/100, the PlayStation 3 version a score of 70/100, and the Xbox 360 version a score of 68/100. On GameRankings, the PC version was the highest ranked. The PlayStation 3 version scored 70.04%, and the Xbox 360 version scored 68.30%. According to an Eden Games employee, as of May 2011 studio internal estimated sales for Test Drive Unlimited 2 were put at roughly 900,000 units sold.

Matthew Kato from Game Informer praised the game, awarding it 8.5 out of ten and complimenting the mixture of open-world and online interactions with the single-player competitions and the free roam, calling them a «cohesive experience». He finally stated that Test Drive Unlimited 2 «might be lacking in most critical areas, but this is one instance where the sheer quantity of features prevails since their structure is thoughtful enough to make this game more than just a lazy vacation.»

Bryan Stratton from G4 praised the replacement of the motorbikes from the original game with four wheel drive SUVs, stating that it was «an excellent decision considering how broken the bike physics were.» He also considered the game's plot to be «so insanely ridiculous that there’s no point in describing it.» About the character models, he commented that they «seem like they stepped out of a first-generation PS2 game, and the words that come out of their poorly animated mouths make the barely localized games of the late 90’s sound like the complete works of Shakespeare.» He gave the game a score of 4 out of 5, finally commenting that «for all of its hokey weirdness, there’s a strange charm about it that will keep you coming back for more.» Test Drive Unlimited 2 Download Torrent.
