Test Drive Unlimited 2 360 patch out now

By Wesley Yin-Poole Published 11 March, 2011

Fixes corrupted save files.

Eden Games has released a patch for Test Drive Unlimited 2.

Eurogamer has received reports that the Xbox 360 patch fixes corrupted saves and makes the persistent driving simulation playable again.

The patch out now is one of a two planned. Part two, which deals with problems associated with clubs among other issues, launches on Monday.

"Thank you for making TDU2 a huge success worldwide," reads an update from the development team on the official forum.

"We have worked diligently to stabilize the network and address log-in issues. Friends lists will now be populated, invites will work correctly and Clubs will be brought back online. The Casino has been optimized and the bug causing players to lose money has been resolved. We have also addressed many of the exploits in the game and will be monitoring cheating in all its forms."

The free downloadable content already promised to fans will launch soon.

Thanks to reader Wendelius for the tip.

    impossible 360 games are perfect.

  • Oceadge #2 1 year ago

    Yay, at last I can start playing it!

  • joe90 #3 1 year ago

    Whats that on the horizon.. oh the ship that sailed a while ago, I think they may have missed the boat now.

  • Daddy-Doom-Bar #4 1 year ago

    At last I can play it! A little late, but welcome nonetheless. Now if you can just fix the clubs, it might be 80% towards being what it should have been on day one.

  • Beano #5 1 year ago

    Does it fix the corrupted handling and car physics?

  • Jonathan_Fakenham #6 1 year ago

    Cool. Now they can safely launch the game!

    It fixed my corrupted save game, which was a "better late than never" moment. Clubs and the rest on Monday (which I'm looking forward to, considering it's an online game).

    I am no big TDU fan. I hadn't played the first game. I bought this one on a whim and enjoyed the time I had driving around the island, exploring the offroad sections in my 4WD and taking in the sights. Until it corrupted my save, that is.

    Here is hoping the game is smoother sailing from now on.

    So they have fixed 1 thing in this patch.. and theres another monday... ffs

  • agparrot #10 1 year ago

    Teehee.

    This is how the patches for today and Monday are actually broken down:

    Today (Friday 11th) Fixes corrupt save games. This has actually worked for my corrupt save game. On the basis of the overall quality of the rest of the product, this has amazed me.

    Monday (14th) is a bunch of fixes they've been talking about, including improving connection stability, making the friends list / invites work 'more consistently' (why they can't just, you know make it 'work' I am not sure). Hand in hand with the MyTDUFriends stuff should also come the Clubs, and allegedly the whole co-op driving side will also be made live.

    So it is all good news, but there are still a very large number of issues outstanding. I'm a bit too busy to do a list right at the moment, but a list it surely is.

    I restarted it, annoyed me to fuck.

    And since when do fwd cars become more twitchy than rwd cars?! Farcical!

    Yet I still play it all the time, shunning bulletstorm. WTF?!

  • CB.Gamestation #12 1 year ago

    However, I am wondering how much they lost due to people returning the game as faulty (Very common especially when a game is THAT broken on launch) also how many people done the trade-in deal via game/gamestation for bulletstorm (Both retail outlets stopped taking TDU2 afer the first day of the deal in my area so evidently a LOT)

    What you mean?

  • Tryhard #13 1 year ago

    Funny with mondays patch allowing you to actually join friends but infact they have now all traded it in.

  • Grievous1976 #14 1 year ago

    Too Late.
