Atari Listen - Patch Info Wanted.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK I HAVE HAD IT UP TO THE EYEBALLS...

i cant lie to myself anymore, this forum is crying out for information on the patch. its the 28th, for the love of god answer them. you mods are running around locking repeated threads on the patch, you are not helping in any way. you are behaving in the very same way that you are punishing people.

enough is enough. This game doesnt work, you failed twice to fix it tenebra quoted the only thing remaining was radio and something else, and suggested that the rest was addressed, and this was quoted as email from devs. this event was well over a week ago, what on earth can you possibly be fixing now then ?

i cant be bothered to help people anymore, because theres no support from the officials. AND I KNOW ATARI IS LISTENING !!!!!!!

delete this thread, prove you are sensoring information, i have screenshots of it being posted. and trust me i promise you 100% the amount of effort i have put into this forum in 3mnths is nothing compared to the effort i will put into proving you deleted it.

these people paid for a game based on its merits, and the fact it was created by ATARI a household name in gaming. sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind, you have failed to make a working PC version of this game even based on the boxes computer specs. you have failed to meet two official deadlines on the patch. you are using forum rules to keep people quiet.

if this is all false then my screenshots are all lies and my words are all bluffs and the fact i say you ATARI arent helping people to the best of your ability is a lie also. Which means with two days left your going to update the patch stickys ??????

lets see.......


Test Drive Unlimted is a game, but this topic is no longer a game, nor is it funny anymore, we played by your rules, we all waited, Provide us with an answer. Even if its one we dont wanna hear - WE THE CUSTOMER AFTER PUTTING UP WITH YOUR RULES, REGULATIONS, EXCUSES, BANNING, LOCKING & DELETION OF THREADS deserve a answer.

i have been a mod for atari i know how it works, stop playing games with these people and answer them.

I want a answer, the people on the forums want a answer, even if half of them are banned. And i know you are going to use flaming rule as a way round this thread...

BUT ATARI ARE FLAMING THIS FORUM BY TAKING ACTION AGAINST THOSE WHO ARE DEMANDING AN ANSWER THAT IS PERFECTLY RESONABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE !!!!

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD - ANSWER THE PATCH QUESTION ATARI

The people on here are being honest and standing by you for the most part, they dont take into account that behaviour such as mine in this thread makes no difference in a court, and you still win... but is this how you wanna be pictured ????

a company that avoids a subject, then when it gets heated. fall back on the lawyers and build a case to regain control - you mods spend all your time (for no pay) speaking on behalf of ATARI and were all appointed moderators for your selfless attitude towards helping the community...

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU ????





HELP THE FORUM MEMBERS - PLEASE !!!!
:eek:
 
I always knew TDU was a very buggy POS... it couldn't run for shit on my 8800GTS when I had it. Then it BSODed my system which was the first time it happened on this certain computer.
 
:confused: Sorry if this seems like spam
NO far from it
They have brought the game out on 4 formats
XBOX 360 the only user base they are giving patches and DLC packs to!
PS2 - corrupt saves
PSP - freezes
PC - Crashes ,Freezes ,Ruined saves,Can't play online ,BSODS
and its unplayable for a lot of pc users ,they had promised a patch for over four months now missing 2 deadlines and are removing their own moderators from specking out about this !
I want my old friends HARDOCP to highlight ATARI's absolute rudeness and plain ignoring of its own customer base.
please try and get this into next issue we need a voice
 
It may be a genuine request, but it reads like spam. You lose credibility when you use excessive punctuation at the end of a sentence, lack capitalization, and abuse caps lock. Sorry, but it makes the post appear to come from a 12 year old, and that makes people not want to read it.
 
They probably can't afford the hours, they are in dire straights financially and there's a good chance they won't be solvent much longer.

Making patches = lose money.
 
TDU worked fine for me during the 2 weeks that I played it...

It was the "bumpy" roads that ruined it for me. Not having smooth hills puts a damper on handling.

Sounds like you should have bought it for the 360
 
This would be terrific if there was some sort of information, just so we might have a slight idea what it is you're bleating about.

Champion.
 
Wow this seems like Atari ;)

Anyone remember Unreal 2 Multiplayer?

Thought not, they just abandoned it the second UT2003 came out. They won’t get to your dumb game, stop complaining or keep it up and get banned.

Take this from a guy that posted regular about lack of support for Unreal 2 Multiplayer ;) Now a regular in the Legendary Forum over are ataricommunity…
 
If you have issues with the game, don't only petition it, return it, then it only hurts them more! Why should the customers suffer and be out hard earned money for ATARI's issues.

I never liked the TD series, they have all sucked IMO. I have noticed that most of ATARI's games just plain out suck with compatibilty on the PC over the last couple of years. Not that they can't make a fun game, just can't implement it well on the PC and from what others are say, even on the console front.

I wonder if they are trying to follow in EA's footsteps, with each release of a new NFS you are lucky to get 1 patch, and those usually address nothing but online play. I'm still bitter on the studder on NFS:MW, they just overlooked it and moved on to making an even worse game, NFS:C.
 
+1 for 70%..

Guess it pays off to watch "Shark Week" on Discovery lawl :D
 
I play the game on PC, never had a problem with it :confused:

The one thing you have to remember is that the vast majority of PC users don't know their asses from their registry and don't have the slightest idea on how to keep a clean, stable system.

The game has never BSOD or "crashed" on my machine. In fact the only game in recent memory that has given me any trouble at all is titan quest, but I figured out why and fixed it and it hasn't ever again.

Kudos dude for posting this. Unfortunately, as you can see from the majority of posts here, most of the people on this forum are self-centered idiots who are too ignorant to recognize a real and serious situation that faces ALL pc gamers. With the attitude shown here soon all games will be nothing but bug ridden trash, and no one to hold accountable.

[H] members should be ashamed of themselves... But I doubt it...

It might have helped if he explained the situation and then asked for help. Instead, as far as I could tell, he just posted this as he would have posted it on Atari's forums. I have never played Test Drive Unlimited so I didn't realize there were issues. It took me until about the middle of his topic to even realize what game he was talking about. Obviously, others didn't realize there were issues with it either. It's not that the people don't care, it's just that when topics are posted like this one, they aren't taken seriously. It's just the way forums are.

What Fix Me said, plus, unfortunately, many games that come out on pc these days are basically betas.. Needing several patches to actually turn themselves into a fully functional game.. This has been the trend for the last few years.. Get it out the door by deadline, and fix the bug ridden trash later, if they feel like it..

I feel for the TDU players.. I know EULA's are written to limit the possibility of this, but class action lawsuit sounds like an idea..

"THIS GAME (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE GAME CLIENT AND MANUAL(S)) IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF CONDITION, UNINTERRUPTED USE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT."

The above quotation found in most EULA's means: if the game is a buggy p.o.s. that don't work, f#*! you, you ain't getting your money back.. And you certainly are not getting the time you wasted trying to get this crap to work, back either..

The guy has one post and the post looks like something I get in my spam inbox on hotmail. Please take your self-righteousness somewhere else.

What has the better chance of being taken into consideration by developers...a well constructed, professional, grammatically correct request, or excessive caps lock and punctuation and the sentence structure and grammar of a 12 year old? I rest my case.
 
It looks like it was written by a 12 year old, it is a rant, it is not worth my time to read. If you want to see how a professional letter addressing a problem should look, read the email I sent to Jack Thompson.
 
This post went on for 2 pages about a developer releasing a game that was bug ridden and patches not being released in a timely manner and no one mentioned EA or Battlefield ? It truly is the end of the world.

BTW they do still have 1 day left for a patch according to their mid to late June timeline.
