Why is there no Isle of Man TT track??????

[FuriousOne]

ive played alot of bike games and to be fair ride 2 is good but graphics and detailing need to reviewed but all in all its ok even has the nurburg ring!! but no bike game ive played has had the Manx TT in it and i find this shocking! its where motorcycle racing all began back in 1894 and is still the most popular track in the world 30 odd miles of pure addrenaline at over 200mph through towns an villages and then over the mountains! Ride2 wants to be the best bike game but without this track there dreams of releasing the best bike game are just going to crumble into a pool of ♥♥♥♥ the same as every other bike game out there i am starting this discussion to try and see if anyone else feels at a loss with this game and hopefully the devs will take this on board (hopefully)

I feel at a loss with your lack of spelling, punctuation and grammar.

Because... it's 37 Miles long. It would probably be an absolute ♥♥♥♥♥ to optimize and get running smoothly on most systems. Many modders (for other games) have started and then abandoned a TT track model. To my knowledge, there's not a complete one out there. They probably underestimate just how much work is involved and then abandon it. But yeah, I'd love to see an accurate TT track but I honestly don't think we'll see it any time soon. If ever.

Would be cool, I think, if Ride 3 took a sorta ARMA approach. Just give us the bare bones engine (that's been improved) and a few assets like tracks and bikes but revamp the engine in such away that modding is highly accessible and intuitive and then turn it over to the community. Talented amateurs can then fill in the blanks and more than likely create a better overall experience. That's not gonna happen though, because then who's going to buy Ride 4?

TT is in the making, just not for RIDE2 lads, thats why they wont put it in this game, must be a licence or copy-right thing but we'll get it soon enough.

[Fear no evil]

If I remember right, Sega years ago bought the rights to any and all motorbike games based on the complete course or the idea of the TT race. And like alot of companies they just leave it to rot and do nothing until another company makes them an attractive offer for the rights.

Once these guys add other tracks like Dundrod, southern, northwest, cookstown etc.
there'll be no need for me to have any other bike sim on my system.

No matter how good the physics or the graphics of future "Ride" games...
If it does not include the full 37 ¾ miles of the "IsleOfMan TT", then no purchase from me.

agreed mate, since ive got Ride2 ive only raced the UGP and NW200 and the odd testing at Donnington or somthing. There was a game i played years ago in the PS2 I think it was, it had all the road racing from N.I. but yea that game will be my "one-stop-shop" for racing! I cant wait!

Also try out the Physics mod at RaceDepartment its superb through all bikes big n' small.

lol oh man I have thought about doing that as I build chops n' trikes. but then I thought ♥♥♥♥ to go that far I may as well grab the keys and just take a bike out! Ive seen it done and it worked great. god luck! lol

[Vaulcan]

oh I understand man (N.Ireland!). the pivet point for the lean of the bike was right were it is in-game, so it would lean from the center of the bike not the bottem (tyres). it was like two V's unside down, then a bar to connect them front to back, then the bike frame welded to the bar, added the tank, seat then front yoke to mount the bars. also the "swing" of the bike was controled by four dampners two front and back lol. it was fun you could pull the bike over and it wanted to stand up again. the controls were a G27 bace connected to the bar at the front so when you lean you turn the bar tunring the wheel ya see! lol

I wouldn be this involved with game had I not broken by back a few year ago hense the PC gaming rather then the real thing...
