Hi there,

Can anyone please tell me how i go about finding a server to cruise around on with other players? Iv had TDU for awhile now but only just started playing online, once im in game im in free-roam and there are maybe 5-7 people maybe roaming around aswell but lots vanish within a few minutes. Are there actual servers i need to join (on xbox 360) in order to meet other players and not be alone all the time? lol

Iv seen on several sites asking are servers down etc. what servers are they talking about? Iv tried looking for a TDU server on my 360 but cant find any option to join servers or even list any servers?

Are there servers i can join, and how do i do so and where?

Or am i already on a server once im in game? (Hardly think so as there are only a handful of people around once i do so dont think its an actual server just this so called "free-roam" thing.

Any help would be much appreciated, cheers :)

Oh and please do add me, gamertag is: Tintinator01

Once you're online you're already in "the server". When people say the servers are down that means that you cannot play online.

When you play TDU online you will be in a server session. Each session is comprised of up to 8 people (you and up to 7 others) that are in the same area. You can ask people to lock on to you so that you don't lose them when you drive away from them. Don't quite remember how to do this but it's in the keypad menu.

It's perfectly normal that people appear and disappear as they (and you) go in and out of sessions. Once you find someone that you get along with and that you are cruising with you can send them a lock request, then you'll be in the same session untill one of you goes to the map or into a store etc.

So no, there is no server that you need to join. If you don't see many people it might be a router problem.

Hope some of that helped.

Cheers Brede_kh, appreciate the info.

Iv been playing for awhile now and did eventually realise that i was already in a session once logged in. Must say im thankful to have bought TDU as the only play is by far better then any other racing game iv played, i love the fact that im able to free-roam and do what i please :) But most of all i enjoy the bikes being a biker myself.

Anyway, cheers for the clarification:)

Yes, TDU is an awesome free roam game. There's no other game that gives the same feeling as when you're cruising across the island with a couple of friends.
