    You Buy a Game from Ubisoft. You Play the Game, which is from Ubisoft. And one Day, Ubisoft will decide, you had enough of this Game and will remove it for you from your Library and close down its Servers, so you cant play your bought Game anymore. The Server part is one thing, but the removing from Library is on a whole new Level. That is literally theft. Ubisoft removes your bought Games from your Library without compensation. Dont believe me? Look up their Game, or might say the now…

    This game works great on the steam deck. Unfortunately ubisoft is so terrible they refuse to update the launcher. This game you paid for will steal from you with broken DRM that does not work, and the force worst launcher on the planet. Let me play offline for the product I paid for. This is absurd. Anti-consumer nonsense. Dear Nadeo, your games are great. Please get away from ubisoft and consider self publishing or something. You would do so much better off without them taking a cut to…

    I couldn't even get past Ubisoft Connect. Every time I tried to launch the game, I got the error: “A Ubisoft service is currently unavailable.” I then tried logging in manually through Ubisoft Connect, but that failed as well. I checked my credentials on the Ubisoft website and they worked perfectly fine there. However, Ubisoft Connect kept rejecting them, and after a few attempts, my account was temporarily blocked. I own the license. I paid for this game. And yet I can't play it…

    Amazing game! But it depends what you seek out of this Trackmania title. pros: - hands down the best solo campaign and solo experience out of all TM titles (yes, all of them) - beautiful graphics - 4 TM2 environments in one TM title - fun local multiplayer game modes to play with friends - provides amazing challenge cons: - lot of bugs in the environments compared to TM2 (especially stadium) - dead online multiplayer - bad or non-existent interface and in game tools for hardcore time…

    Never buy a Ubisoft game. Ever. It doesn't matter how good the game is. You will have to deal with a launcher that doesn't work and will lock you out of the game you bought randomly. I love this game with my whole heart and this company ruins everything they touch

    Uplay is trash indeed. You have to manually download the new version and replace the old installer with it after you asked steam to verify game integrity in order to trigger the installation. Other than that, works fine.

    The most underrated Trackmania game. It diverges from the traditional formula, but I really like the style and look this game goes for: arcady and cyberpunk-esque. It lacks a lot of QOL features from the TM2 games, yes, and it sometimes isn't super polished with Randsteins and landing bugs making a notable return in Stadium, but holy cow are the cars fun to drive. I used to be a Stadium one-trick pony, but this game made me really appreciate alternate environments; although I will say that grip…

    UPlay is the worst, most garbage piece of software I've ever had to try and use. To actually get the game to work: 1. Uninstall UPlay 2. Install latest version of Ubisoft Connect Actual game is fine if you can get it to work.

    What happened to TrackMania... I've been playing since 2008 and even today I can still put hundreds of hours into TMUF without ever getting bored. Played TM2, TM2020. Never tried Turbo until now. It made me uninstall after half an hour. It is basically a reskinned downgraded version of TM2, but without the fun. Jeez, there is not even an option to hide the opponent's ghosts! And speaking of "no option": Why can't we just turn off the announcers with their obnoxiously cringe and unnecessary…

    It's an awesome game that you should ditch for the Trackmania 2 games. The Dual Driver thing is a fun quirk and so is the automatic track generator, and the "japan ads flashing light tvs" style makes it unique from the other releases, but it doesn't make the cars control better or improve the experience. --My biggest gripe atm is no input customization whatsoever, so can't change keybinds, and there's no button to hide ghosts. (which i HATE for hunting!!!)-- EDIT: oops there are keybind…

    This game is not worth $40. I do not understand why they keep raising the price. However My friends and I bought it for around $20 and we have sunk hours and hours together in Hot Seat and the campaign is great. Hands down the best arcade racing game on steam. The only two reasons aside from the price that this would receive a negative review is the lack of online multiplayer and the constant prompts from Ubisoft to sign in. I just want to turn my PC on, launch the game and play together. Not…

    Step 1: Uninstall uPlay and install the latest Ubisoft app from their website. Step 2: Play the most fun Trackmania game. Step 3: Accept the dissappointing reality that there are almost no players online and face the difficult decision of what TM game you actually want to sink your time into. Such a fun game, super slick and has its own character among TM games. Heaps of players online in the PS4 version, its a crying shame there aren't more online on the PC version.

    The app is completely broken. You can't even sign in to the obligatory server without installing it outside of steam. If you want to use a wheel and pedals it's uniquely frustrating. It's still pretty cool with a sim rig, but getting it to work reliably will take years off your life.

    If you have UPlay problems, install Ubisoft Launcher from the Ubisoft Website (or with Protontricks if you're on Linux!), and try launching the game from Steam again. Once you beat the initial step of Ubisoft letting you into the game, it's amazing and runs really well on any hardware!

    Ubisoft is anti-consumer with all its decisions, back to back. It's degenerate Uplay DRM gets shipped and installed, but of course it is no more. Why isn't this fixed? Why is Ubisoft allowed to sell broken games, that need work from the consumer? Pirating this game is more convenient than paying. Think carefully whether you want to support such business practices, in a state between malevolence and just disregard for the consumer. Ubisoft won't ever get a cent from me again. Sue me.…

    Quick Score: 5/5 Notes: This is the final challenge of trackmania. Containing an entire campaign for Canyon, Valley, Lagoon, and Stadium coming out to 200 total tracks. The author (Trackmaster) medals in this game are harder than any of the other games, and to top it off there is an additional medal beyond that called "Super Trackmaster" which are so difficult only 22 people in the entire world have all of them. I would consider this one of the hardest "official" gaming challenges in the…

    I really like this game but it is incredibly frustrating. The frustration comes primarily from poor controls and poor track design and both of these come together to make one car in particular very unpleasant to play with. That car is the Dune Buggy. I hate that car. It's supposed to be an off-road vehicle so most of the tracks you'll race on with this vehicle will be dirt. The problem is that it controls like garbage on the dirt. It actually has worse off-road control than the other two…

There's not much to do in this one compared to the Maniaplanet titles or Trackmania 2020, since there's no community support in the sense that you can add custom objects to your custom tracks. It's like Trackmania United Forever. What you see is what you get, and that's mostly it. It's no joke that the single player campaign is super hard.
