Feedback

Bergie (Dignitas manager) :

"The game is very fast paced and there'sno tricks that you can do like on stadium where you the sliding is decisive.You have a form of sliding in fast of the tracks, especially longer turns, but you don't start the slide on purpose by braking, it just happens automatically. I would say its almost like sliding on island; but them again, i'm not an island expert :p

The handling of the car is a mix between stadium, coast and desert i would say, and if you crash, the car gets damaged !
I don't think the game is suited for esports quite yet simply the game  is very easy and simple, and there's really no challenge in it yet.It's definitely well suited for the casual gamers though.

The TM2 tournament here started with qualificatio, where only first place qualified from each heat. Kewin, Hakki Jr and me all qualified and will play the quarterfinals, tomorrow at 16 cet. Matchmode : Cup with finalist :D

One more thing. The fact that the car sticks to the wall in wallrides is just weird to be honest, and i have yet to find out how to do a turn like that decently. It's not possible to airbrake as well, but i haven't a single "bug" so far !"
