Can you chose a world or server or something in the real version?Because Hawaii would be full fast if evereybody race in the same server.
it doesnt work that way. Everybody is on the same server but untlike MMO games you are only directly connected (seeing them ingame) to 7 other players in freerome mode.
Only 7 :hin:
Dude, that's sucks... :cry:
In others MMO games, there R a 20/30 or more gamers on one server...
Why it's only 7? :noooo:
you can only see 7 other players when ur in a race! but in free roam you will see everybody! yeah there will be more than 1 server theres got to be or what would be the point in starting a club?!!!!
becouse the game is an an xboxlive game, it doesnt work like the majority of PC games where there's an central server and clients (players) log into it, but instead uses p2p system where everyone sends everyone his info which limits the number of people in one session.
edit:
onene im talking about ingame freerome not the map mode. on that you can see everbody but in game youll see 7 other people max.
(...)but in free roam you will see everybody!(...)
R U sure??
Have U check'd this?? :)
Can someone place an link to trailer with? rolleyesa
i played the beta and at the bottom of my screen i had up to 12 players in my area! i was on with clan 6 clan m8s at 1 time and while drivein around saw others too!??

The PC uses P2P...Where do you think the Xbox got it ??? he he...
Sad to say, you can ONLY see 7 people Online in screen, but on the Map you will see people popping in and out of the map like rabid Cockroaches... :(
Its impossible to find a friend on the Map, let alone see our friend In screen...
But you can ADD a friend and you have to Teleport to him/her a few times just to get that person In screen...Doesnt work the first time you have to Teleport a few times to get them in screen...
IF you dont know what your friend called themselves then you totaly out of luck on finding that person in game...
me and the lads had afew probs finding each other at first but after a few times of clicking we got it! so what would happen if we had say 50 members for the car club and we all wanted to meet? could that be possible? and if it was would we see other random players driving around?

i wish the beta has finished m8

Even filtering doesn't help, there should be a search bar for name typing and it appears with Online or Offline, Car Avatar for what there currently driving and Rank. That'll do great when trying to find someone especially if you teleport to them and they're in front at first instead of trying multiple times!
i wish the beta has finished m8
What it's the "m8"??

The Server should of been handled differently instead of Random People everywhere...
The game doesnt even show the person NEAR you, just pops someone ingame by you when ever it Updates from the LAG it has...
Shame such a waste :(...
My brother was right beside me and he could see me I couldnt see him...
U talking about pc version?
Maybe it's because it still in beta ;)
I hope so...

well first of all the total number of people in a club is much lower, i thnik its even below 20. ask someone from the xbox360 section they tell you more. if 50 ppl would want to meet somewhere they would be split into at least 7 diffrent sessions with a max number of 8 per session, becuse afaik they didnt uped the max number in the PC version. other random people that would be near would probably be seen in the sessions that are not full.

The max number of people in a club is 16 players
do ya think that all 16 could meet up? or would it split the group?

do ya think that all 16 could meet up? or would it split the group?No as the the maxium limit for a group of people is 8, So 2 groups of 8 could do the same race then swap 4 over on either side maybe

TDU should have some kind of server system like other online games have. You got to main menu then click on multipalyer choose a server and join. Server limits should be like 60-100 people in one server and then you see everyone not like now only 12 people. Cause of this new server system i dont see my friends in online too i see them on map but when i fast travelt to them then i cant see them.

We hardly got any lag in BETA, But you knew when people where lagging because there car was gittering all over the place.. Also filtering for friends is good, but teleporting to them and there not there.. So it takes a couple of tries to get them.
...I was racing with tons of people in Free Roam, just cruising. There isn't a limit, as far as I can tell from the Closed Beta.

you can only connect to 7 other players in races and freeroam, and if you had something like 12 it was because they were updating the servers, it happened on the 360
