The demo in numbers
Optimization and servers
The level of optimization in this demo and the stability of the servers did not meet the expectations of some of the community. We can provide several explanations: The game build used for this demo did not yet include a number of important optimizations. Optimization work being parallelized on different branches from those playable on a large scale, many optimizations and graphical improvements have since been implemented. Guillaume Guinet, Game Director, discussed this in an interview with TraxionGG: https://traxion.gg/test-drive-unlimited-solar-crown-demo-old-version-optimisation-a-priority/ This demo also had technical objectives, notably concerning large-scale server testing worldwide. These were technical tests conducted for the first time, essential to ensure a smooth launch. We understand that these aspects may have impacted your gaming experience and currently consider these topics as priorities. To conclude, we are pleased to confirm the following information: Upon its official release (September 5 for players who pre-ordered the Gold Edition), Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown will offer “Performance” modes (1080p/60FPS) and “Quality” modes (1440p/30FPS) on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. On PC, as the hardware (graphics card, processor, RAM, hard drive, etc.) and software environment (antivirus and background software, among others) are different for each user, the matter is always more complex. We wish to reiterate that the minimum and recommended configurations for this demo do not correspond to those of the final game. We are currently conducting all technical tests that will allow us to define the final recommendations for the game's release.Console betas
