Since 2003, the output of Trackmania first name, the success of this racing game continues unabated and its sequel, Sunrise, has also brought happiness to many players. Nadeo, the development studio, has even reached a new milestone in early 2006 with Trackmania Nations, which gave the opportunity for a wide public to discover the series since he was a free download.
The problem is that there are now three different versions of Trackmania, each with its environments, its cars and its own servers. D Hence the idea that germinated in the minds of developers to merge it all into a single title: United. However, the title also brings new developments that strengthen even further the community aspect.
United, above all seven environments and many vehicles are very different from each other. We found the first three scenes that we had crossed in the first Trackmania: the desert and his car with soft suspension that can be put on two wheels, rally and racing car fast with a tendency to slip off and finally, the snowy and pick-up grip monster that is able to take a sharp turn at full speed. Les trois environnements de Trackmania Sunrise sont aussi de la partie. The three environments Trackmania Sunrise is also the party. A Thus, « Islands » and racy vehicle is certainly the ultimate in speed: fast turns, dizzying jumps, the decor favorite racers. Much slower and technical, « Coast » offers Mediterranean decor and a decidedly heavy car that you put a lot of time to master cornering. Finally, « Bay » is an urban setting where you drive a 4×4 on nerve routes requiring high accuracy. Of course, there are also environmental « Stadium » which had been rolled into Nations and that puts us in a car mid-way between the F1 and buggy and precise steering. It should also be noted that for the latter environment, it is now possible to travel on a different surface: land. The adhesion of course it is greatly reduced and then almost runs like a motocross race with four wheels.
We also found three modes of play solos that made the success of previous titles in the series: Race, Platform and Puzzle. The first is to make the best time possible on a given course, the second will ask you to finish in as little tries as possible. The last, you should put the hands on since before attempting to blow up the clock, you must build the circuit on which you ride. For this, a number of blocks (pieces of track) you are awarded and what will you put them in order to connect the most effective possible start to finish. Nadeo has however had the good idea to enrich the content consistently since it is not less than 200 new circuits where you can ride. The challenge is also now more solo than in other opus Trackmania. Besides the traditional win medals obtained by beating the reference time and used to earn coppers (the game currency), United have the possibility to see the time that has been made the players in your area on any Such course solo (the timers are downloaded and updated so clear as long as your Internet connection is activated). The emulation is so even when playing alone in his corner.
To be eligible to be self-classified in the highest scores on the Internet, you must activate the « official mode » on one circuit of the single player campaign. Once done, you have a test and one to carry the stopwatch. S Stress guaranteed because if you botch it ended and you will again spend a few coppers to revive again the official form. ladder mondial. Depending on your level, you’re likely to appear in the rankings of your department, your country, your country or even on the global ladder. EIn fact, you always start by being ranked at the lowest level (the department). To get a grade and move to the region, you will collect SP (Skill Points). They are won by making good lap times in official mode. Once you have enough SP to be part of the 100 best players in your department, you will spend in the region and so on. Each environment and each game mode has its own ranking. Nadeo has indeed included a button to allow you to download new tracks directly into the game Created by the players themselves with the editor included, these channels cost a few coppers course.
We must collect a maximum of coppers in order to download channels, but also skins and videos of cars. To facilitate handling and allow everyone to submit their creations, each player has the right to have his own space where it hosts its free cars and other courses to make them available to others. If the solo content is more than consistent, is obviously multiplayer Trackmania United is that its full extent. Playable both turn on the same PC in LAN or Internet, the game is really fun. It is quite true, in the final grade of « only » 16/20, but it takes so much pleasure in chaining the corners, to exchange its circuits and move up the hierarchy of players on the net ‘we can only recommend this title.
